The budget environment for FY 2007-08 is significantly different that last year and reflects more normal revenue and expenditure conditions than the past two years when issues involving unprecedented growth dominated the budget. Even with a slow down in the development enviranment, however, the local economy remains good and there continues to be modest revenue growth consistent with the historic growth trends of the City. Therefore, this year's budget reflects generally positive conditions, and we are able to address many areas of Council priority and concern. This budget includes the continuation of a strong Capital Improvement Program to address the infrastructure rreeds of the community. The $193 million upgrade of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 represents the largest single capital project ever undertaken by the City. The continuiation of the Thomas Roads lmprovement Program (TRIP), road maintenance efforts, new fire station construction, and new park construction also reflect the City's efforts aind commitment to provide needed infrastructure. These projects are consistent with high) priority Council goals and the product of years of planning. Most General Fund and development related revenues have returned to more normal growth levels. Because of this, the proposed budget reflects a more normal level of position requests and operating increases than in the past two years. The proposed budget includes an increase of forty-one positions compared to the one-hundred forty six (including mid-year additions) in the PI 2006-07 budget. Building permits activity has slowed down compared to last year. Requests for new residential refuse slewice and new residential sewer service have also returned to more normal levels. ------City of Bakersfield City Manager's Office 1501 Truxtun Avenue Bakersfield, California 93301 (661) 326-3751 Fax (661) 324-1850 Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 2 As a result of decreased construction activity, staff is recommending that six vacant positions in the Building Department related to development activity be eliminated. Some positive budget trends indicate that there are currently few threatls of State budget actions which might negatively impact City finances. Further, the passage of the recent State bond measures may provide additional road funding and a variety of grant opportunities for City transportation, housing, parks, water resources-related infrastructure improvements and capital projects. Staff is actively pursuing these fundin~go pportunities. The Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) projects will be continuing to progress. The City paid off the water bonds for the purchase of the Kern River water rights in December 2006, so water funds previously committed to debt service may be committed to other water related projects. We have been able to address a major portion of the City's long term office space needs with the purchase of the Borton Petrini and Conron Building. The relocation of departments to that facility has already begun and will continue over the next few years as leases expire and space becomes available. Departments have budgeted for costs associated with moves to the new facilities where applicable for this upcoming fiscal year. We have also included some capital funds to make the building more energy efficient and cost effective to operate. The extreme increase in construction costs that we have experie~nced during the construction boom seems to be slowing and, hopefully, bid prices will imp~rove. The proposed budget is intended to support the efforts of our employees to meet Council Goals by providing the staffing and other resources required to provide quality municipal services to our citizens. Codna With The Chanaina Pace Of Growth Even with the slow down in home construction, the City of Bakersfiield continues to experience a steady pace of growth, which has presented both challenges and opportunities. During the past year approximately ten square miles were! added. Several developers with large tracts of land have annexed or are in the processing of annexing their property into the City and have entered into development agreements with the City. Over the next few years these projects are likely to proceed with development. The proposed budget provides funds towards several key projects, including transportation, fire stations, parks and recreational facilities, wastewater treatment plant expansion, as well as various repair and renovation projects. Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 3 Proposed New Positions FY 200748 The proposed FY 2007-08 budget includes a historically normal number of position additions. The net increase in the number of positions from FY 2006-07 to FY 2007-08, including the mid-year additions, will total forty-one. They include the following: Human Resources: One Clerk Typist. Information Technow: One GIs Analyst, one Network Systems Technician, and one Programmer Analyst. Citv Attorney: One Administrative Assistant 1/11 which was added mid-year in FY 2006-07. Police: Eight Police Sergeants and three Police Senrice Technicians. -Fire: Three existing Firefighter positions upgraded to three Engineer positions to staff the ladder truck at Station #7, the restoration of one Secretary for the Administration Division and one Clerk Typist for the Training Division. Public Works: Two Construction lnspectors and one Traffic Operations Technician in Engineering; one Facility Worker for Building Maintenance, two Maintenance Craftworkers for Plant Maintenance in General Services; one Fleet Mechanic and one Communications Technician in Equipment Maintenance; one Accountant for the pre-treatment program in Wastewater; and one Fleet Mechanic for the Woodwaste site and one Heavy Equipment Operator in Solid Waste Division for additional commercial refuse routes. Water: One Light Equipment Operator. Recreation and Pa&: One Park Services Coordinator, one Supervisor II, four Facility Workers, and four Laborers. Develo~rnenSt ervices: Deletion of five vacant Building lnspectors and one Residential Plan Checker for the Building Division; and replacement of one vacant Code Enforcement Officer position wH:h three new Assistant Code Enforcement Officers. This is a net reduction of four positions for the department. Items of Note Facilities Reserve -The Facilities Reserve is set aside for major renovations and repairs to City facilities and is, to some degree, a rainy day account. The balance for the Facilities Reserve at the end of FY 2006-07 (after the use of $9,500,000 towards the purchase of the Borton Petrini and Conron building.), will be $3,000,000. The proposed budget Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 4 increases that amount by $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 as a formal reservation of fund balance within the Capital Outlay fund. Continqencv -The proposed budget includes $250,000 in contingency funds for unforeseen events and expenditures. Retiree Medical -Funds have been reserved for future retiree medical liability ($7.9 million for all funds) under the new rules as part of the proposed budget. lncludled in this amount is approximately $2 million to pay the City share of retiree premiums far FY 07-08. The $5.9 million remaining will be set aside to reduce the unfunded liability. The remaining unfunded liability will be addressed over several future years based on actuarial information. Major Positive Efforts Several important community projects and Council priorities are planned to be accomplished in this budget. Many of these projects and programs alre to address the growth of our community. The proposed budget recognizes the return to more typical revenue levels and, consistent with prudent financial planning, continues to dedicate onetime revenues to one-time uses, including various capital projects. These highlights include: The $193 million upgrade of Wastewater Treatment Plant 3 which will begin construction this year. = Road repair and reconstruction efforts, with over $17.8 million designated for street resurfacing and reconstruction. Major transportation projects, such as the Thomas Roads Imprc~vemenPt rogram (TRIP), Westside Parkway, and bridge construction projects, will be done using Transportation Impact Fees, and State and Federal road funds. Other transportation related projects, including traffic signals and medians, are plannled using targeted funds. Staff is continuing its aggressive efforts to pursue additional transportation funding from the recently passed State transportation bonds. The construction of Fire Station 14 in Southwest Bakersfield at Mlountain Vista and Harris Road is included in the proposed budget utilizing funds that have been set aside over the past few years. The remaining balance from thostt funds previously set aside of about $300,000 and an additional $500,000 of new funds, for a total of $800,000, have been budgeted towards funding other future fire stations. Several large annexations have occurred during the past year and development agreements have been executed with major corporations, landowners and developers in those areas to facilitate master planned additions to Bakersfield which will provide for needed public infrastructure, services and recreational facilities. Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 5 = Enhanced Code Enforcement efforts will continue with the addition of three Assistant Code Enforcement Officers. = The development of 65,000 square feet of commercial and 100 units of affordable housing on property located near Q Street, California Avenue and the Kern Island Canal with a special HUD Economic Development grant and a Federal low interest loan of $3,750,000. Construction of the Baker Street Mixed Use Project. The construction of Fire Station #5 should be completed this fiscal year. = The initial phases of construction to be completed on the Mill Creek project at Central Park. The construction of the 40 acre park and baseball facility in cooperation with the Southwest Baseball League at Jewetta and Stockdale Highway. = The Master IPlan for improvements to the Mesa Marin Sports complex is being prepared by a consultant. The design of the Sports Village project will begin. This project will provide a significant unique recreational facility to our community and will provide numerous playing fields and other amenities. We continue to experience a strong economy locally and the potential for longer-term future community growth. State Department of Finance figures for January 2006 show our City population has grown to 31 1,824. BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS The total proposed appropriations for FY 2007-08 for both operating and capital expenditures is $65!3,174,266, including $48,246,483 in interfund transfers. Total proposed appropriations in FY' 2007-08 for all City funds reflect an increase of about $137 million, or 26.3 percent more than FY 2006-07. About $134 million of the increase is in the Capital Improvement budget. The Operating Budget is proposed at $383,549,179 which reflects a $3,380,861 increase when compared to FY 2006-07. The proposed Capital lmprovement Budget is $275,625,087, which is an increase of $94.7 million compared to FY 2006-07. A major portion of this increase is due to the expansion of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 budgeted for $193 million. The CIP includes funding for fire stations, significant Transportation Development Fee and Federally funded road Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 6 projects, and use of Community Development Block Grants and other special funding sources. 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 any significant changes over the prior year. General Fund Major revenue sources for the General Fund are real and personal property tax, sales and use tax, business licenses tax, utility franchise tax, licenses and pe~mits, State motor vehicle in-lieu tax, miscellaneous charges for services and interdepartmemtal charges. General Fund Revenues are projected at $1 89,777,800 (including $21,651,885 in beginning fund balance and transfers). This is an increase of about $13,878,400, or about 7.9% greater than the adopted budget revenues for the 2006-07 fiscal year. Items contributing to General Fund revenues include: $66.0 million in sales and use taxes, $63.4 million in property tax, and $37.7 million in other taxes and fees. Also, the above figures reflect the $1 9,443,000 of local sales tax revenue captured and repaid with property tax by the State (Sales Tax Triple Flip). Other General Fund revenues have remained stable. Charges folr services reflect decreases due to the slowdown in building and construction activity andl reduced services provided by the City with those user fees. Sales tax receipts in a very hot economy the past two years have normalized. As anticipated, the "spike" we experienced in the 2005-06 fiscal year hats gone. We are projected to meet the estimate of $63 million as adopted in the 2086-07 budget, which was based on the historic trend for sales taxes of about 7% (absent the revenue spike). Growth projections for 2007-08 are about 4.85% and are more conservative due to the slowdown in building activity. The growth factor is based on the most recent recent information available from the State Board of Equalization. Property taxes also reflect the impact of past development activity, and actual revenues are exceeding estimates for 2006-07. This is partially due to supplemenlal tax bills for new construction. Estimates for 2007-08 of about 8% growth reflect increased property values due to recent housing construction activity and are slightly higher than historic averages of about 7%. General Fund Expenditures are projected at $189,777,800. This is 7.9% greater than the P9 2006-07 adopted budget. In addition to ongoing operating expenses and personnel costs, $250,000 has been set aside for Council Contingency. These budget increases are primarily the resuit of the additional personnel noted above, and general inflationary cost increases, as well as expenditures being funded by grants and fees. Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 7 Ca~itaIlm ~rovemenPt roaram (CIP) The CIP provides capital planning for the City of Bakersfield's infrastructure over a fiveyear planning period. Revenue sources identified within the CIP may be from grants, taxes, user fees, bond issues, transfers from other funds, or assessments. Many of these 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 proposed CIP budget for FY 2007-08 totals $275,625,087. An itemized listing of projects recommended for approval and projects included in the Five-Year Plan are presented in the CIP section of this document. A few major or significant projects, however, are discussed below. Project Highlights: Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 Expansion Project -As noted earlier, this $193 million is the largest single capital improvement budget undertaken by the City of Bakersfield. This amount is a "best estimate" at this time. The actual project costs will be determined when the project is awarded. The expansion and upgrade of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 is in response to the plant having to meet stricter permitted effluent requirements in the year 2010 and the rapid development of residential and commercial properties on the west side of the city. This growth trend is anticipated to continue. The proposed expansioln and upgrade to Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 will double the treatment capacity from 16 million gallons per day to 32 million gallons per day and will result in a more sophisticated treatment plant, which will remove over 95% of the primary wastewater constituents. Based on current growth projections, the expanded plant will be able to serve the residents of Bakersfield for at least up to the year 2025. This project will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 Arterial Roads -Four miles of roads surround Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3. Currently, these roads are only two lanes and the improvements will upgrade these roads to full width arterial standards. The need for safe ingresdegress for vehicles due to increased on-site activities from the expansion of Plant 3 and increased traffic due to encroaching development creates a need for these upgrades. This project is estimated at $16 million and will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) -Nearly $50 million of federal and local funding was budgeted for the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) in FY 2006-07. It has taken longer than originally anticipated to obtain federal approval for these expenditures, so with the exception of one project that has an additional $1 million proposed for FY 2007-08, the funds budgeted for TRIP projects in 2006/07 are anticipated to be adequate for the work planned to occur in 2007-08. The $1 million multi-year project Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 8 proposed for 2007-08 will widen the existing State Route 178 Highway from Mesa Marin to Rancheria Road. Realignment on Auburn Street -Approximately $1.6 million of traffic impact fees are proposed for the realignment of Auburn Street west of Morning Drive. With the future State Route 178lMoming Drive Interchange, freeway ramps will be installed tolfrom Morning Drive. To meet Caltrans standards for separating local street intersections and freeway ramp intersections, the existing location of the Auburn StreetIMoming Drive intersection needs to be relocated which requires the realignment of Auburn Street. Westside Parkway -The proposed Capital lmprovement Budget for PI 2007-08 currently includes no additional funding for the Westside Parkway. Public Vllorks staff will be budgeting funds for the Westside Parkway pending the results of the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Augmentation Program which is currently being reviewed by the California Transportation Commission (CTC). This additional STIP' funding is part of the Proposition 1 B bond funds approved by the State's voters last November. The CTC will be making final decisions/program approvals in early June. The City, through the Kern Council of Governments, has submitted a request to the CTC for the full amount needed to construct the Westside Parkway and has proposed scheduling these funds over the next several fiscal years. Currently, the construction dollars programmed i~nth e STIP by the CTC for this project are spread out over a number of fiscal years, and these programmed funds will only pay for about half of the project. Once the CTC decisions are finalized in early June, staff anticipates that budget modifications will be brought fonvard for consideration by the Council prior to the adoption of the final FY 2007-081 budget. Street Resurfacing and Reconstruction Projects -The N 2007-08 proposed CIP budget also continues Council's commitment to the street maintenance program. $7.9 million is proposed for next year's CIP to address citywide street maintenancelreconstn~ctionis sues. Of the amount budgeted, federal transportation funds of $3,685,503 are proposed, with the corresponding local match of $4717,497 coming from the City's share of state gasoline taxes as accounted for within the Gsis Tax Fund. The proposed budget also dedicates $3,080,000 of one-time Capital Outlay funds to the City's street maintenance program. In addition, the operating side of the proposed budget includes $10.0 million for street maintenance. Therefore, the combined CIP and operating FY 2007-08 budget for street maintenancelreconstruction totals close to $17.9 million. Bridge Construction Allen Road at Kern River -The Bridge Construction for Allen Road at Kern River project was budgeted at $8 million in FY 2005106. The FY 2006107 proposed CIP budget added an additional $3.0 million of funding to this project. The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget adds an additional $5.0 million of funding for construction of this project due to escalating construction costs. Staff has completed the environmental and preliminary design phase of this project. The final design and construction document phase will be completed in FY 2006/07. The project will be advertised for bids, and a construction contract awarded early in FY 2007-08. xii Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 9 Bridge Construction, Hosking Avenue at SR 99 -The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget includes $4 million for land acquisition to construct the new interchange. This project will construct a new bridge and install on and off ramps to SR 99 at Hosking Avenue. This project will be funded by developer fees collected through the traffic impact fee program. This is a multi-year project. Street Improvements along Panama Lane -This $1,350,000 project on Panama Lane at the Union Pacific Railroad Sunset Branch grade crossing includes widening the roadway to its ultimate width within the railroad right of way and additional street width to provide transitions both east and west of the intersection. This project also requires new railroad signal and rail improvements. Traffic Signal Coordination -Two projects (Traffic Monitoring Camera and Traffic Signal Interconnect) are proposed to be funded predominantly with federal Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ) funds. Both projects will improve signal timing, reduce traffic congestion, and reduce vehicle emissions. The $1 30,000 Traffic Monitoring Camera Project will add vidleo capability from two specific intersections to the Traffic Operations Center. The $896,000 Traffic Signal lnterconnect Project will expand the number of signals linked to the Traffic Operations Center. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2 Odor Control -lncreasing development of residential and commercial properties close to the wastewater treatment plant creates the need for installation of odor control at Plant 2 and to construct upgrades to the existing septagelgrease receiving station. Income from the septagelgrease receiving station is approximately $1 million dollars per year. This project is estimated at $6 million and will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Sewer Improvements on Brimhall Road between Rudd Road and Renfro Road -$1,370,000 is proposed for this project. The extension of this existing sewer line will provide sewer service to an area currently using dry sewers. Storm Drain improvements on Clara Court and Gwendolyn Street, North of Fairview Road -This $1,01!5,000 project will provide better drainage for this area. Fire Stations 1 Various Fire Department Projects -For several years, the City has been setting aside funding for future fire stations. This budget includes funding for construction of the next station that needs to be built, which is Fire Station 14 at Mt. Vista and Harris. A fire engine for this station will also be purchased from this accumulated funding. Other Fire Department projects for 2007-08 will be $90,000 for one emergency generator at Station 4 to make it self sufficient for an emergency or natural disaster; $1 10,000 for the plumbing overhaul of Station 9; and $37,000 for a more energy efficient ceiling at Fire Station 1. Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 10 Public Safety Communication Improvements -$150,000 is proposed to convert one police radio channel to a digital format as required by the Federal Communications Commission. This will be a multi-year project to convert all channels to 1:he digital format. Water Wells -Three additional water wells estimated at $3 millior~ are proposed to increase production capacity due to continued steady growth within the City's Domestic Water System. Well Field Land Acquisition -$1,500,000 is proposed to acquire an approximate 10 acre parcel located in southwest Bakersfield to construct a series of water wells. The wells will be used for groundwater production and distribution to planned domes1:ic service areas in the southwestem portion of the City. Pump Station Upgrades -$400,000 is proposed for the first phase of a new program to add system storage to various water wells over the next several years to prepare for emergencies or power outages. Taxi Lane Construction at the Bakersfield Municipal Airport -This $1,370,000 project will construct taxi lanes, taxiway extension and apron areas to allow hangar development at the Airport. A large waiting list for additional hangers exists. This project will be funded predominantly by a Federal Aviation Administration grant. The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget includes a significant number of projects to be funded with one-time Capital Outlay funds, including the following: Sports Village -Proposed for next year is $1,500,000 for preliminary design services for the 120-acre Sports Village complex, to be located north of Taft Highway, west of Ashe Road, and east of Gosford Road. 40 Acre Park Site -Baseball -The City has entered into an agreement with Southwest Baseball for construction of the 40-acre baseball park site at Jewetta and Stockdale. The proposed budget includes $2,170,000 for construction and installation of a concession/restroom/storage building, sewer system, parking lot and and grading. Southwest Baseball is responsible for the construction, installation, and operation of the baseballrelated items at the new complex. Hockey Rink Structure -Due to significant increases in the cost of siteel and concrete, more recent estimates indicate the need to increase the project budget,. Proposed for FY 2007-08 is an additional $250,000 for the indoor hockey rink structurie to be located at Saunders Park. The hockey rink was donated to the City in 2004. These improvements will make the amenity usable to the public throughout the year. Mesa Marin Sports Complex -Due to an increase in the number of softball teams and leagues, Mesa Marin will be renovated to provide more field space. The CIP for FY 07-08 Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 11 includes $1,000,000 for design and construction of the four softball fields, restroom1concession building, and the westerly parking lot. Urban Forestry Slewices -Next year's proposed CIP budget includes $200,000 for contract tree services which will be used to prune large trees in excess of 50 feet, since the City does not helve the equipment and staff to handle tall trees. Replacement of City Phone System -This project set asides $4 million to replace the current City's phone system using modem technology. It has become increasingly difficult to obtain support alnd parts for the current system. There are also numerous other CIP projects within the Capital Outlay Fund proposed for next year involving various building maintenance and repair projects. Projects to be funded with Community Development Block Grants include the following: Mill Creek Linear Park -$300,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds will be used for the 21S' Street crossing for the northern section of the project, in addition to $1.7 million in Old Town Kern tax increment funds for the initial segment of the Central Park improvements. Lowell Park Restroom -This $350,000 project will remove and replace a 60 year old public restroom. The existing restroom will be replaced with an American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, vandal resistant, and more efficient structure. Airport Improvements -The goal of this project is to commit $200,000 annually, over the next 5 years. to provide design and installation of landscaping and fencing around the perimeter of the Bakersfield Municipal Airport.

The proposed FY 2007-08 operating budget includes approximately $1 0,010,072 for street maintenance. The proposed CIP budget includes $7,872,048 for street resurfacing/improvements. Therefore, the combined operating and CIP budget for street maintenance totals $1 7,882,120.

In addition, a broad variety of musical concerts and special events will continue to provide excellent entertainment options for the community in each facility. SMG also will be overseeing the booking of the Amphitheater at the Park at River Walk. Ice Sports Center continues to provide ia wide variety of programs and activities for the community. Development Services. The Development Services Department hais experienced a significant slow down in the levels of development activity over the past fiscal year. In response to the slow down in building activity the FY 2006-07 proposetl budget includes the elimination of five vacant Building Inspector positions and one Bu~ilding Technician position in the Building Division. Code Enforcement is requesting the elimination of a vacant Code Enforcement Officer position which is to be replaced with three Assistant Code Enforcement Officer positions.

The total operating budget for Development Services is $10,597,697, which is a 0.6% increase compared to FY 06-07. This very slight increase reflects the slow down in construction and the associated decline in activity within the building (and development communities. Economic and Community Development.

The budget reflects the full funding of a Principal Planner position who was on long term leave and is returning.

The budget reflects funding for Sister City activities and the Mayor's participation in special community events. City Council.

The Executive Department proposed budget for FY 2007-08 includes requests for four new positions including one Clerk Typist for Human Resources, one GIs Analyst, one Network Systems Analysts, and one Programmer Analyst, for Information Technology.

The increases in the total Executive DeparUment budget are attributed to new position requests within the Information Technology Division. City Attorney. The City Attorney's proposed budget includes changes to the staff compliment which added an Administrative Assistant 1/11 mid-year. The City Attorney's budget totals $3,277,241, which is a 6.3% increase compared to the current year. This increase is the result of the additional position notled above and the increase in cost for outside counsel and litigation fees for CEQA related law suits. Financial Setvices. The total operating budget for Financial Services is $3,412,245, which represents a 4.1 % increase compared to PI 06-07.

'The proposed rate will increase by $0.05 to $0.79 per unit on October I, 2007. A typical residential customer will see a total increase of $1.40 per month. These inc:rea!;es are due to Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 17 the cost of new water supply programs, increases in electricity, and the operations and maintenance contract. Refuse Fund. Staff is proposing a 3.2% increase in the 2007-08 refuse rates. The annual residential rate would increase from $169.08 to $174.48, which is a 45 cent per month increase. The increase is intended to cover the refuse haulers' annual CPI adjustment, which will be 3.2% lor fV 2007-08. The rate increase is also needed to cover operations and maintenance costs associated with refuse service and street sweeping. New position requests are summarized under the Public Works section of this transmittal. Wastewater Treatment Fund. Staff is recommending a 14.8% increase in residential sewer user rates, with the exception of a few special users that are having their rates phased in over several years to bring them into compliance with State requirements. Sewer user fees will increase from $135 per single family home to $155. The increase is due to increased personnel, electrical, and maintenance costs. Sewer connection fees will increase $300 per single-family household effective on July 1, 2007. The fee for each single-family household will go from $2,800 to $3,100. This increase will be year two of a five year phase-in period of a multi-year fee program. These additional funds will be applied toward the clebt service payments for the Plant 3 Expansion project. Internal Service Funds These funds account for services provided to City departments to support operations such as vehicles and communications equipment, computers, and liability, property and Workers' Compensation insurance. Equipment Management Fund. The Equipment Management Fund provides for funding of vehicles, telecotmrnunications equipment, computers, and copier equipment. Rates charged for equipment within the Equipment Management Fund are based on actual costs for depreciation, inqprovements and replacement, and are billed to departments on a monthly basis. This year the budget provides for $3.3 million in new equipment, including equipment associated with additional positions, and $8.1 million in replacement equipment where the useful life has been expended. During FY 2007-08 we are planning to replace 202 computers and 71 printers. Risk Management Fund. The Risk Management Fund provides a self funded program for generaf liability and workers' compensation insurance. Additionally, excess insurance is purchased as a member of the Authority for California Cities for Excess Liability (ACCEL). Swcial Revenue Funds Special Revenue Funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditure for a specific purpose. Examples are Community Development Block Grant (CIDBG), Gas Tax, Federal Transportation Funds and the Transient Lodging Tax Fund. Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 18 HUD Entitlements: Community Development Block Grant & HOME Investment Partnership funds come from the Federal Government Department of Housing and Urban Development for the elimination of slum and blight, development of affordable housing and the creation of jobs. Our allocation of CDBG funds for FY 2007-08 is $3,403,927 and HOME lnvestment Partnership funds is $1,571,787. These entitlement amounts reflect a less than 1% increase in CDBG and less than 1% decrease in HOME for next year. These funds will primarily be spent on affordalble housing projects, graffiti1 removal efforts. In addition, CDBG Funds, in the amount of $1,599,048 are proposed for various Capital lmprovement Projects in HUD eligible areas of the city. The Lowell Park Restroom project is budgeted at $350,000. The Public Woks Department has budgeted $200,000 for Airport landscaping improvements; $300,000 for streetscape improvements on 34' Street; $40,000 for a pedestrian crossing near the Bethany Homeless Center; and $409,048 for street improvements in eligible areas. In addition, there is an allocation 01: $300,000 for Central Park Improvements to compliment the impending Mill Creek Line(ar Park Project. Transient Lodging Tax Fund was established in July 1998 to account for the general revenues provided by a 12% room tax (M.C. 3.40) and the operation and debt related to the Rabobank Arena. This includes the contract with SMG for p~ivatization of the operations of the facilities. Revenues from operation of the complex go i~ntoth is fund. This fund also includes debt service payments on the arena facility. The ope!rational costs and revenues for the Bakersfield Ice Sports Center are included in this funid. The proposed budget includes a contribution to the Convention and Visitors Bureau of 11% of Transient Lodging Tax funds, per their agreement with the City. Any available 'Transient Lodging Tax funds after taking into account the City's long term term commitments for Rabobank Arena, Ice Sports Center, CVB, etc. are transferred to the City's Capital lmprovement Program. Contributions -In accordance with Council policy for contributions to non-profit groups, staff is recommending funding for the Bakersfield Museum of Art in the amount of $27,500; Bakersfield Symphony in the amount of $55,000; and the Bakersfield Senior Center from Block Grant Funds in the amount of $65,000. These nominal changes from last years contributions reflect increased costs anticipated for these non-profit groulps. SUMMARY The proposed budget, while not as growth oriented as last year, still provides for additional positions and programs. This budget was prepared based upon what we know, as of now, and what we believe we can reasonably expect. Departments have ]done their best to provide a budget which will address some of the rapid growth we are experiencing and provide needed services to the public. Even though this budget provides for additional positions and programs, we will continue to be challenged to maintain service levels to meet community growth, public demands ancl expectations. Our employlees are committed to doing the best they can with the limited resources available. We will continue to explore xxii Honorable Mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 19 ideas and efforts to cut costs, secure alternate sources of funding, and look for better and more efficient ways to provide services.

The first nine years of all charts beginning with Property Tax Revenues through Motor Vehicle-In-Lieu Revenues reflect actual data, the tenth year is projected data based on the latest information available at budget preparation time, and the final year is proposed. The CDBG and Home Funds chart reflects the actual entitlement approved by the Housing and Urban Development Department, but may not reflect the amount received by the City of Bakersfield within that fiscal year. Projected revenue assumptions are based on the last three years of trend data, current economic circumstances including impacts of the State budget crisis and other external factors. The key assumptions in the General Fund revenue forecast for fiscal year 2007-08 were: I). Property tax revenues will increase by 8.0% due to a rise in assessed valuation and general growth. 2). Sales tax revenue will increase by 4.85% as a result of anticipated growth in the retail base. 3). Transient Lodging Tax revenues will increase by 6.0% as a result of increased tourism and convention activity. 4). License and Permit revenue will decrease by 30. I % as a result of the slow down in local construction activity. 5). Motor Vehicle In-Lieu fees reflect a reduction due to a change by the State in how funds are distributed. However, vehicle fees overall are projected to increase by 6% over current year estimates. 6). The CDBG Entitlement will increase by less than 1.0% and HOME Entitlement will decrease less than 1.0% compared to the prior year. Property Tax Revenues -Property taxes are imposed on real property and tangible personal property located within the state. Property is assessed annually on January I by the County Assessor. The State Constitution limits the real property tax rate to one 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 the revenues from the one 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 governmenls 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 1.0 percent local government portion of the total rate and the .5 percent rate (% cent) increase approved by the voters in November 1993 for public safety. The local 1.0 percent is distributed based on "point of sale" while the 1/2 cent for public safety is distributed 95 percent to counties and 5 percent to cities. The one 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 Yi cent sales tax is distributed monthly. The largest single classification contributing to sales tax revenues is the sale of automobiles. The uses for sales tax are unrestricted, but must be receivled into the City's General Fund. 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 ble 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 individuals 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 XlllS 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 the regulatory activities. Service charges, on the other hand, are imposed to support services to iindividuals. Some of the fees for service included in revenue are: * Maintenance district services -Reimbursements for costs operating and maintaining all public improvements which benefit a specific area. * Interdepartmental charges (Self-insurance and equipment maintenance) to account for the financing of goods and services provided by one department to another City department on a costreimbursement basis. + Arena charges -revenues received from the use of the Rabobank Arena. CDBG and HOME Funds -The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds and HOME Funds are federal funds from the Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) and are provided to meet national objectives such as benefiting low-and moderate-income families, eliminate blight and/or address an immediate or urgent need in the community. VVhile CDBG and HOME have the same national objectives, they differ in focus. CDBG funds are more flexible and can be used for a variety of purposes includin!~c apital projects, economic development, assistance to non-profit groups and ho~using. HOME is designed primarily for housing related assistance for the elderly and low income. The City began receiving HOME entitlement funds in 1992-93, which accounts for the dramatic increase in revenue beginning in that fiscal year. Transient Occupancy Tax -The transient lodging 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 30 days or mor~e. 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; however, some cities earmark these revenues for certain business activities, such as business development purposes, Convention Bureau, etc. 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 ~t Plumbing permits * Electrical permits * Mechanical permits + Street and curb permits + Other use permits, 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 electric, plumbing, and sewage facilities. The City charges a fee for issuing these permits in order to recover the costs incurred. Motor Vehicle-In-Lieu Revenues -The Vehicle License Fee (VLF) is a special license fee equivalent to two percent of the market value of motor vehicles and is imposed annually by the state in lieu of local property taxes. Originally motor vehicles mere counted in the local property tax assessment, but for ease of administration and conformity, the State now collects these fees through the inlieu tax. The revenues from the VLF are allocated to cities and counties. In 1998, the State began a series of reductions to the VLF which have ultimately resulted in a 67.5% reduction in the fee. These tax reductions would have resulted in significant local government losses. Instead, the legislature has replaced the reduced VLF revenues with property tax allocations on a dollar-fordollar basis. Thus, this VLF in lieu property tax revenue has provided cities and counties the same amount of revenue as under prior law. Revenues derived from the motor vehicle license fee are apportioned monthly and distributed near the 10th of each month. Section 11005(11005(a) specifies that 81.25% of the Base VLF revenues are to be divided equally between cities and counties and apportioned on the basis of population. The use of revenues received from the motor vehicle in-lieu tax is unrestricted. They are included in the General Fund to help support fire and police services, as well as quality of life services.

FY 2007-08 SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CHANGES 1. The proposed FY 2007-08 budget reflects Council's continuing commitment to graffiti eradication. The amount budgeted for graffiti eradication provides sufficient funding to operate the program seven days a week, year round. No additional positions or equipment are requested for the graffiti eradication program because of Council's past commitment to fully fund this program. 2. The FY 2007-08 proposed operating budget continues the City Council's commitment to the street maintenance program. Approximately $10.0 million is proposed for street maintenance activities within the operating budget. The proposed CIP budget totals $7.9 million. Therefore, the combincad operating and CIP budget proposed for FY 2007-08 totals close to $17.9 million^. 3. Staff is proposing a 14.8% increase in all sewer user fees for FY 2007-08. The residential sewer rate will go from $1 35 to $1 55. Since all other sewer user fees are based upon this single-family rate, those rates will also increase by the same percentage. This increase is required to fund: Annual operating costs Capital improvement budget for storm waterlsewer collection systems and wastewater treatment plants Establish and replenish sewer reserve funds Debt service on bonds to be issued for Plant 3 upgrade anld expansion Project Additional rate increases are being phased in over a seven-year period for hospitals. This will be year seven of the phase-in period. Hospitals will see an additional increase in their rates next year, in addition to the COILA. The rate for hospitals is proposed to increase from $75.74 to $93.00 per bed. 4. Refuse rates are projected to increase 3.2% to cover cost increases. The rate increase also covers inflation of 3.2% in the hauling contract. The residential refuse rate will go from $169.08 to $174.48, a monthly increase of 45 cents. 5. New positions, by funding source, proposed for FY 2007-08 are listed below.

The CIP provides the long-range capital planning for projects that are expected to service the City of Bakersfield's infrastructure over a considerable period of time. Revenue sources identified within the CIP may be from grants, taxes, user fees, bond issues, transfers from other funds, or assessments. Those projects proposed for FY 2007-08 total $275,625,087 and are designated within the following City departments: Fire Services $ 4,737,000 Public Works $252,752,048 Recreation and Parks $ 12,681,039 Water Resources $ 5,455.000 TOTAL $275,625,087 A listing of projects by department is included in this section and reflects all of the projects planned by each department over the five-year period. While the Council will be approving funding for FY 2007-08 only, it is important to identify all costs for each project included in the five-year plan. Project Highlights Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 Expansion Project -As noted earlier, this $193 million is the largest single capital improvement budget undertaken by the City of Bakersfield. This amount is a "best estimate" at this time. The actual project costs will be determined when the project is awarded. The expansion and upgrade of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 is in response to the plant having to meet stricter permitted effluent requirements in the year 2010 and the rapid development of Honorable mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed CIP -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 2 residential and commercial properties on the west side of the city. This growth trend is anticipated to continue. The proposed expansion and upgrade to Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 will double the treatment capacity from 16 million gallons per day to 32 million gallons per day and will result in a more sophisticated treatment plant, which will remove over 95% off the primary wastewater constituents. Based on current growth projections, the expanded plant will be able to serve the residents of Bakersfield for at least up to the year 2025. This project will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 Arterial Roads -Four miles of roads surround Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3. Currently, these roads are only two lanes and the improvements will upgrade these roads to full width arterial standards. The need for safe ingresslegress for vehicles due to increased on-site activities activities from the expansion of Plant 3 and increased traffic due to encroaching development creates a need for these upgrades. This project is estimated at $16 million and will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) -Nearly $50 million of federal and local funding was budgeted for the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) in FY 2006-07. It has taken longer than originally anticipated to obtain federal approval for these expenditures, so wit11 the exception of one project that has an additional $1 million proposed for FY 2007-08, the funds budgeted for TRIP projects in 2006107 are anticipated to be adequate for the work planned to occur in 2007-08. The $1 million multi-year project proposed for 2007-08 will widen the existing State Route 178 Highway from Mesa Marin to Rancheria Road. Realignment on Auburn Street -Approximately $1.6 million of traffic impact fees are proposed for the realignment of Auburn Street west of Morning Drive. With the future State Route 178lMorning Drive Interchange, freeway ramps will be installed to/from Morning Drive. To meet Caltrans standards for separating local street intersections and freeway ramp intersections, the existing location of the Auburn StreeWMoming Drive intersection needs to be relocated which requires the realignment of Auburn Street. Westside Parkway -The proposed Capital lmprovement Budget for FY 2007-08 currently includes no additional funding for the Westside Parkway. Public Works staff will be budgeting funds for the Westside Parkway pending the results of the State Transportation lmprovement Program (STIP) Augmentation Program which is currently being reviewed by the California Transportation Commission (CTC). This additional STlP funding is part d the Proposition 1B bond funds approved by the State's voters last November. The CTC will be making final decisions/program approvals in early June. The City, through the Kern Council of Governments, has submitted a request to the CTC for the full amount needed to construct the Westside Parkway and has proposed scheduling these funds over the next several fiscal years. Currently, the construction dollars programmed in the STlP by the CTC for this project are spread out over a number of fiscal years, and these programmed funds will only pay for about half Honorable mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed CIP -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 3 of the project. Once the CTC decisions are finalized in early June, staff anticipates that budget modifications will be brought forward for consideration by the Council prior to the adoption of the final N 2007-08 budget. Street Resurfacing and Reconstruction Projects -The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget also continues Council's commitment to the street maintenance program. $7.9 million is proposed for next year's CIP to address citywide street maintenancelreconstructio issues. Of the amount budgeted, federal transportation funds of $3,685,503 are proposed, with the corresponding local match of $477,497 coming from the City's share of state gasoline taxes as accounted for within the Gas Tax Fund. The proposed budget also dedicates $3,000,000 of one-time Capital Outlay funds to the City's street maintenance program. In addition, the operating side of the proposed budget includes $10.0 million for street maintenance. Therefore, the combined ClP and operating FY 2007-08 budget for street maintenancelreconstruction totals close to $1 7.9 million. Bridge Construction Allen Road at Kern River -The Bridge Construction for Allen Road at Kern River project was budgeted at $8 million in N 2005106. The FY 2006107 proposed CIP budget added an additional $3.0 million of funding to this project. The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget adds an additional $5.0 million of funding for construction of this project due to escalating construction costs. Staff has completed the environmental and preliminary design phase of this project. The final design and construction document phase will be completed in FY 2006187. The project will be advertised for bids, and a construction contract awarded early in FY 2007-08. Bridge Construction, Hosking Avenue at SR 99 -The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget includes $4 million for land acquisition to construct the new interchange. This project will construct a new bridge and install on and off ramps to SR 99 99 at Hosking Avenue. This project will be funded by developer fees collected through the traffic impact fee program. This is a multi-year project. Street Improvements along Panama Lane -This $1,350,000 project on Panama Lane at the Union Pacific Railroad Sunset Branch grade crossing includes widening the roadway to its ultimate width within the railroad right of way and additional street width to provide transitions both east and west of the intersection. This project also requires new railroad signal and rail improvements. Traffic Signal Coordination -Two projects (Traffic Monitoring Camera and Traffic Signal Interconnect) are proposed to be funded predominantly with federal Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ) funds. Both projects will improve signal timing, reduce traffic congestion, and reduce vehicle emissions. The $130,000 Traffic Monitoring Camera Project will add video capability from two specific intersections to the Traffic Operations Center. The $896,000 Traffic Signal Interconnect Project will expand the number of signals linked to the Traffic Operations Center. Honorable mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed CIP -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 4 Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2 Odor Control -Increasing development of residential and commercial properties close to the wastewater treatment plant creates the need for installation of odor control at Plant 2 and to construct upgrades to the existing septagelgrease receiving station. Income from the septagelgrease receiving station is approximately $1 million dollars per year. This project is estimated at $6 million and will be funded by proceeds from the sale of bonds. Sewer Improvements on Brimhall Road between Rudd Road and Renfro Road -$1,370,000 is proposed for this project. The extension of this existing sewer line will provide sewer service to an area currently using dry sewers. Storm Drain Improvements on Clara Court and Gwendolyn Street, North of Fairview Road -This $1,015,000 project will provide better drainage for this area. Fire Stations 1 Various Fire Department Projects -For several years, the City has been setting aside funding for future fire stations. This budget includes funding for construction of the next station that needs to be built, which is Fire Station 14 at Mt. Vista and Harris. A fire engine for this station will also be purchased from this accumulated funding. Other Fire Department projects for 2007-08 will be $90,000 for one emergency generator at Station 4 to make it self sufficient for an emergency or natural disaster; $1 10,000 for the plumbing overhaul of Station 9; and $37,000 for a more energy efficient ceiling at Fire Station 1. Public Safety Communication Improvements -$150,000 is proposed to convert one police radio channel to a digital format as required by the Federal Communications Commission. This will be a multi-year project to convert all channels to the digital format. Water Wells -Three additional water wells estimated at $3 million are proposed to increase production capacity due to continued steady growth within the City's Domestic Water System. Well Field Land Acquisition -$1,500,000 is proposed to acquire an approximate 10 acre parcel located in southwest Bakersfield to construct a series of water wells. The wells will be used for groundwater production and distribution to planned domestic service areas in the southwestern portion of the City. Pump Station Upgrades -$400,000 is proposed for the first phase of a new program to add system storage to various water wells over the next several years to prepare for emergencies or power outages. Taxi Lane Construction at the Bakersfield Municipal Airport -This $1,370,000 project will construct taxi lanes, taxiway extension and apron areas to allow hangar Honorable mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed CIP -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 5 development at the Airport. A large waiting list for additional hangers exists. This project will be funded predominantly by a Federal Aviation Administration grant. The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget includes a significant number of projects to be funded with one-time Capital Outlay funds, including the following: Sports Village -Proposed for next year is $1,500,000 for preliminary design services for the 120acre Sports Village complex, to be located north of Taft Highway, west of Ashe Road, and east of Gosford Road. 40 Acre Park Site -Baseball -The City has entered into an agreement with Southwest Baseball for construction of the 40-acre baseball park site at Jewetta and Stockdale. The proposed budget includes $2,170,000 for construction and installation of a concession/restroom/storage building, sewer system, parking lot and grading. Southwest Baseball is responsible for the construction, installation, and operation of the baseball-related items at the new complex. Hockey Rink Structure -Due to significant increases in the cost of steel and concrete, more recent estimates indicate the need to increase the project budget. Proposed for FY 2007-08 is an additional $250,000 for the indoor hockey rink structure to be located at Saunders Park. The hockey rink was donated to the City in 2004. These improvements will make the amenity usable to the public throughout the year. Mesa Marin Sports Complex -Due to an increase in the number of softball teams and leagues, Mesa Marin will be renovated to provide more field space. The CIP for FY 07-08 includes $1,000,000 for design and construction of the four softball fields, restroom/concession building, and the westerly parking lot. Urban Forestry Services -Next year's proposed CIP budget includes $200,000 for contract tree services which will be used to prune large trees in excess of 50 feet, since the City does not have the equipment and staff to handle tall trees. Replacement Replacement of City Phone System -This project set asides $4 million to replace the current City's phone system using modem technology. It has become increasingly difficult to obtain support and parts for the current system. There are also numerous other CIP projects within the Capital Outlay Fund proposed for next year involving various building maintenance and repair projects. Projects to be funded with Community Development Block Grants include the following: Mill Creek Linear Park -$300,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds will be used for the 21" Street crossing for the northern section of the project, in addition to $1.7 million in Old Town Kern tax increment funds for the initial segment of the Central Park improvements. Honorable mayor and City Council 2007-08 Proposed CIB -Letter of Transmittal May 9,2007 Page 6 Lowell Park Restroom -This $350,000 project will remove and replace a 60 year old public restroom. The existing restroom will be replaced with an American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, vandal resistant, and more efficient structure. Airport lmprovements -The goal of this project is to commit $200,000 annually, over the next 5 years to provide design and installation of landscaping and fencing around the perimeter of the Bakersfield Municipal Airport. Streetscape Improvements on 34'h Street -This $300,000 project is Phase II for the design of streetscape and median island improvements on 34m street. lmprovements for this phase will be on 34th Street, from Chester Avenue to Q Street. This project supports the City Council Goal to construct a streetscape project on &h Street from Chester Avenue to Union Avenue. Bethany Homeless Pedestrian Crossing -This $40,000 project consists of installation of a lighted crosswalk system at the existing crosswalk on East Truxtun Avenue at Williams Street. The crosswalk is adjacent to the Bethany Homeless Center Campus. Street Improvements in HUD Eligible Areas of Wards 1 and 2 -This $409,048 project is to construct various street, curb and gutter improvements in HUD eligible areas. Lastly, the proposed CIP budget for FY 2007-08 includes several projects that will add or enhance the amenities within several of our City parks. Funding sources for these projects include both Capital Outlay funds and developer fees collected through the park development fee program to construct parks. Additionally, the amount for reimbursement to developers who build required parks and are paid back over a number of years as development occurs has been budgeted. The FY 2007-08 proposed CIP budget provides a broad based benefit to our community and its citizens. The budget also allows the City to address infrastructure needs which have been impacted significantly by the growth in our community. Summary In summary, staff is pleased to present the five-year CIP and the FY 2007-08 Proposed Capital lmprovement Program budget, which represents a wide range of projects that improve our infrastructure and ensure safety of City facilities, while enhancing the aesthetics of our community. As the needs of the community change, the plan can be adjusted to reflect those changing priorities. Since the intent of the CIP is to facilitate long-range planning, staff has attempted to provide Council with the necessary information to allow that flexibility.

Subsequently, each department head presents an oral presentation of their departments 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 3oth of each year. The Council may at any time refer specific budget issues to the Budget and Finance Committee as necessary.

By providing service delivery based on City Council Goals and Policies, 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 bought -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 Budaet 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. A 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. A significant budget change represents a major departure from historical practice or treatment of a program or line item within a department's budget. Action. Plan. An 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. The 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. Within each department are divisions and programs. At these levels is a summary of costs by personnel, general operating and capital expenditures. 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 longterm 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 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. 3. Prior to July 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of a resolution. I 4. Budgets are adopted for all governmental fund types and are prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. he 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.
