BUDGET MESSAGE FROM CITY MANAGER
v
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 2 them in FY 2009-10 to reduce the damage to services that would have been even more
extreme than what follows below had they not shown extraordinary cooperation. The City owes these groups thanks for their sacrifice. OVERVIEW OF FISCAL YEAR 2009-10 The budget instructions
given to departments started with the assumption that the 9.34 percent cuts in personnel and expenditures that were imposed in 2008-09 would continue and that further cuts would be made
to reflect the continuing decline in revenues from there. The budget, therefore, proposes to take out another twenty (20) full time positions, in addition to the 141 already lost. Wherever
possible, that will be done by not filling vacant positions. Every effort will be made to minimize the potential displacement (layoff) of employees. In the Police Department, 29 sworn
positions have been eliminated to date. The proposed budget will not have any reduction beyond the 29 sworn police positions, so any vacancies that occur for the remaining sworn police
positions will now be filled as soon as possible. Additional cuts totaling approximately 2.1 percent of the General Fund, impacting nearly all services and many line items, are also
necessary to achieve a balanced budget. Cumulatively, we will then have reductions in the General Fund workforce and budget of 8.8 percent, as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget.
Staff Reduction Damages to Date The following are the citywide staffing reductions by department comparing the proposed FY 2009-10 budget levels to the FY 2008-09 budget: 2008-09 Reduction
2009-10 Percent Change Executive 69 -11 58 -15.9% Financial Services 35 -3 32 -8.6% City Attorney 13 -2 11 -15.4% Police 517 -46 471 -8.9% Fire 210 -11 199 -5.2% Public Works 454 -44

Total 1,608 -161 1,447 -10.0% vi
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 3 The economic times we are in are unprecedented and there is absolutely no assurance
that the projections this budget is based on will not continue to decline. The State of California continues to have a massive budget deficit and there is no assurance that they will
not take actions which will negatively impact us. As of this writing, both Police and Fire labor contracts have not been renewed for FY 2009-10. In short, in these unprecedented times,
the budget may be in a continual state of adjustment, rather than the traditional adoption for a full fiscal year. It is important to note that the percentage changes to department budget
reductions will vary from numbers previously discussed in regard to budget reductions, since salary increases received mid-year during FY2008-09 were only funded for a six month period.
In FY 2009-10 they are funded for a full year and these increases partially offset the previously discussed budget reductions and thus change the numbers used for comparison purposes.
With that being said, as most General Fund operations are being cut around 8.8 percent, it is generally true that we will continue to be challenged to provide adequate service levels
with fewer resources. In most cases, response times will be longer and service delivery may appear to the public to be less efficient than it has been historically. POSITIVES There are
some positives contained in the budget, largely in follow up to actions taken in the current year. Most, of course, are out of the General Fund as follows: Freeway and Road Construction
It is anticipated that construction on the interchanges at Fairfax /SR-178 and Seventh Standard Road will be completed in late summer of 2009. Bids on the extension of Mohawk from Truxtun
to Rosedale have been awarded. A great deal of that construction will be completed in FY 2009-10. The County will bid the widening of Seventh Standard Road which should also be completed
in FY 2009-10. Similarly, bids on the Westside Parkway from Mohawk to Calloway are expected to be awarded this spring, with construction continuing throughout 2009-10 and into 2010-11.
The Allen Road Bridge will be completed in the summer of 2009, and the realignment of Auburn Street will also be completed in early 2009-10. Finally, TRIP environmental work will continue
through 2009-10 on the Hageman Flyover, Morning /SR-178 interchange, 24th Street, widening of SR-178, Rosedale Highway, and the Centennial Corridor. vii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 4 ARRA Projects (Federal Stimulus) The City has received notice of award of $12 million
to pave arterial streets, $3 million of energy projects, $1.3 million for homelessness prevention and $830,000 for policing costs. Many other categories for stimulus funds are competitive
in nature and the City will apply for as many as it can compete for. Projects Headed to Completion in FY 2009-10 Because they were funded in earlier fiscal years, openings are projected
in FY 2009-10 on Fire Station No. 14, Mesa Marin Park, Waste Water Treatment Plant No. 3, the first eight (8) soccer fields of the Sport Village and the linear park improvements along
Mill Creek. REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE OVERVIEW The total proposed appropriations for FY 2009-10 for both operating and capital expenditures are $443,813,712, including $46,477,100 in interfund
transfers. Total proposed appropriations in FY 2009-10 for all City funds reflect a decrease of $152 million, or 26%, as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. Most of the decrease
is due to the reductions to the General Fund and Capital Improvement Program budget. The Operating Budget is proposed at $368,192,605, which reflects a $22,953,112 decrease, or 6.0%,
as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. The proposed Capital Improvement Budget is $75,621,107 (including Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency capital improvements), which is a decrease
of $129.3 million, or 63.1%, as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. The CIP includes funding for road projects funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), Transportation
Development Fee and Federal funds, as well as the 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 compared to the prior year. General Fund Major revenue sources for the General Fund are real and personal property tax, sales and use taxes,
business license tax, utility franchise tax, licenses and permits, State motor vehicle in-lieu tax, miscellaneous charges for services and interdepartmental charges. viii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 5 General Fund Revenues are projected at $165,296,100 (including $17,328,650 in beginning
fund balance and transfers). This is a decrease of $15,878,555, or 8.8%, as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget revenues and reflects the economic slowdown. Items contributing
to General Fund revenues include: $55,030,300 in sales and use taxes (down from $62.2 million from the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget budget), $58,682,200 in property tax, and $34,254,950
in other taxes and fees. Also, the above figures reflect the $13,585,000 of local sales tax revenue captured and repaid with property tax by the State, commonly known as the “Sales Tax
Triple Flip”. Other General Fund revenues, such as charges for services, reflect decreases due to the slowdown in building and construction activity and reduced services provided by
the City with those user fees. Sales tax receipts are down, reflecting the general economic downturn. Revised revenue projections for FY 2008-09 are about 7.0 percent lower than prior
year actuals. The proposed budget reflects an expectation that sales tax revenues will decline by 5.0 percent, compared to current year revised estimates, as a result of the continued
decline in economic activity over the past year. As sales taxes reflect general economic activity, staff will continue to monitor this revenue source for significant changes. Property
taxes also reflect the slowdown in development activity. Property tax revenues are expected to decline by 11.0 percent for FY 2009-10 based on information from the Kern County Assessor.
The decline in development activity has resulted in a significant slowdown in receipts for traffic impact fees, building permit fees, and park development fees, as well as revenues associated
with planning processes. We have experienced significant drops in development-related revenues during this past year. Projections for FY 2009-10 reflect this reduced level of development
activity and decline in revenues. General Fund Expenditures are projected at $165,296,100. This is a decrease of $15,878,555, or 8.8%, as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget expenditures
and reflects the economic slowdown. In addition to ongoing operating expenses and personnel costs, $50,000 has been set aside for Council Contingency. The budget reductions in the General
Fund are primarily the result of the elimination of positions noted above and various reductions made by departments. Capital Improvement Program (CIP) The CIP provides capital planning
for the City of Bakersfield’s infrastructure over a fiveyeea 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. ix
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 6 The proposed CIP budget for FY 2009-10 totals $75,621,107. 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
as follows: Project Highlights: Westside Parkway – $17 Million is proposed for the Westside Parkway project. Bids on the Westside Parkway from Mohawk to Calloway are expected to be awarded
this spring, with construction continuing throughout 2009-10 and into 2010-11. These funds are to ensure completion of the segments of the project from Mohawk to Calloway and for preliminary
costs for the Truxtun tie in. Thomas Road Improvement Program (TRIP) -The amount requested for various TRIP projects totals $12,500,000. • Centennial Corridor – Hageman Flyover -$2,150,000
• Rosedale Highway Widening -$450,000 • 24th Street Widening – Elm to D street -$$1,300,000 • SR-178 – Morning Drive Interchange -$5,350,000 • SR-178 Widening – Mesa Marin to Rancheria
Road -$3,250,000 The local match required by the City for these five projects will be approximately $1,435,000 and is part of these budgeted funds. Traffic impact fee revenue provides
the funding for the local match requirements. ARRA Funds – A total of $16,038,162 in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) funds are included in the Capital Improvement
budget. This includes $3,040,000 for a solar energy project at Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 (this project also includes an additional $2,000,000 in funding from the Sewer Enterprise
fund); $12.1 million in Highway Infrastructure funding for pavement rehabilitation projects throughout the city; and $897,462 in CDBG funding for pavement rehabilitation in CDBG eligible
areas. Reconstruction of Various Streets – This project directly ties to Council goals for the street maintenance program. Federal transportation funds of $3,791,542 are proposed for
the SAFETEA -LU Fund, with the corresponding local match of $491,234 coming from the City’s share of state gasoline taxes as accounted for within the Gas Tax Fund. Resurfacing Funds
for Streets Division – The proposed budget includes $3,250,000 of Capital Outlay funds for the Streets Division to continue street resurfacing/reconstruction work. This amount is an
increase of $1 million above the amount of Capital Outlay funds budgeted for street resurfacing in FY 2008-09. x
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 7 Traffic Signal Coordination – The two proposed projects, Traffic Monitoring Camera
and Traffic Signal Interconnect, are to be funded 88.53% with federal Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ) funds and 11.47% with Gas Tax Funds. Both projects will improve signal
timing, thus reducing traffic congestion, and vehicle emissions. The $230,000 Traffic Monitoring Camera Project will add video capability from three (3) specific intersections to the
Traffic Operations Center. The $785,000 Traffic Signal Interconnect Project will add signal communication infrastructure and link an additional ten (10) signals to the Traffic Operations
Center. New Traffic Signals – There are a total of eight (8) new traffic signals proposed in the CIP. New traffic signals are proposed for Hageman Road at Old Farm Road, Olive Drive
at Verdugo, Hosking at Wible, Buena Vista at Campus Park, and Berkshire at Stine Road, using Traffic Development Funds. These intersections meet warrants for installation of a traffic
signal as established by Federal and State requirements. Additionally, the proposed budget includes CMAQ funding for three (3) traffic signals. The three (3) signals will be located
at Agate at Planz, Hosking Avenue at South H Street, and Buena Vista at Harris. Curb & Gutter, California & P – This $800,000 project using CDBG funds will install curb, gutter, and
sidewalk prior to reconstructing and paving streets as needed in this area. Currently, water sits causing pavement failures in the street, as well as causing concern among residents
regarding the West Niles Virus. Curb & Gutter Alta Vista – This $500,000 project using CDBG funds will install curb, gutter, and sidewalk prior to reconstructing and paving streets as
needed in this area. Currently, water sits causing pavement failures in the street as well as causing concern among residents regarding the West Niles Virus. Fairground Annexation Improvements
– This CDBG project project will complete the requirements of Agreement No. 08-155 between the City and the County. This agreement requires the City to install standard six feet sidewalk
along the east side of South “P” Street between Belle Terrace and the south property line of the Fairgrounds. The total cost for this proposed project is $205,800, with $90,000 funded
with CDBG monies and $115,800 funded with Capital Outlay monies. Sewer Improvement, Terrace Way from Wible Road to Stephens Drive – This $65,500 project will install gravity sanitary
sewer improvements to provide recently annexed homes with City sewer service. The budget includes funds to allow qualified low-income homeowners to receive assistance to cover both sewer
connection fees and septic tank abandonment fees. Street Improvement, Quiet Zone – This $237,800 project is proposed to close two (2) atgrrad highway /rail crossings on the BNSF rail
line at Beale Avenue and Gage Street /21st Street. This closure is a requirement of establishing the quiet zone corridor on the Mojave Subdivision from L Street to Sumner Street. xi
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 8 Median Islands, Mt Vernon Avenue, from SR-178 to Columbus Street – Adding median
islands will provide structured channelization, eliminate illegal turns and crossings, and thus make the area much safer. The cost for this proposed project is estimated at $194,000.
Bridge Retrofit, Manor Avenue at the Kern River – This $100,000 proposed project is part of the seismic retrofit program. Design was completed in 2004. Construction of the project was
postponed because of a lack of state funding. With this proposed funding, the consultant will revise the original design to meet current standards and staff will initiate environmental
clearance. Street Improvement, West Portion of Wible Road, North of Arvin Edison Canal – With the exception of a small segment, Wible Road south of Panama Lane has been widened to full
arterial width. This one remaining segment causes a traffic bottleneck. The adjacent property to this segment is an existing large sized, single family dwelling unit. Therefore, there
is a need to construct street improvements along this segment. This $176,000 proposed project qualifies for traffic impact fee funding as a gap project. Mill Creek Linear Park Plaza
– Proposed budget of $500,000 to be used towards the development of a new plaza located at 17th Street. Improvements for this plaza have already been designed as part of the overall
Mill Creek Project in the Old Town Kern Project area. Parking Improvement, 20th Street, East of Central Park – This $350,000 project funded by tax increment will add parking for the
Mill Creek Project area. The development of the Mill Creek Linear Park in Central Park will enhance the Park and increase the activities. This will create a need for additional parking.
This new parking lot will add approximately 100 parking stalls within easy walking access to the Park.
The total project cost is estimated at $900,000. The proposed budget of $350,000 reflects funds currently available for this project. ED/CD staff is applying for grants to cover the
unfunded portion of this project. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 2007 Expansion – Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 2007 Expansion project will double the treatment capacity of this
Plant. Based on current growth projections, this extra capacity will serve the residents of Bakersfield at least until the year 2025. The core treatment processes are being updated with
state of the art technology to efficiently produce a quality treated odor free effluent . The proposed FY 2009-10 budget includes $2 million for a potential amendment to the construction
management and design consultant’s agreements for additional work. Sewer Improvement, Hooper Avenue – The Hooper Avenue neighborhood was recently annexed into the City. Property owners
in this area have requested city sewer service. This $890,000 project will construct the necessary improvements to allow connection to the sewer system for those requesting service.
xii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 9 Sewer Improvement, Kimberly Avenue – The Kimberly Avenue neighborhood is currently
in the process of being annexed into the City. Once annexed, this $495,000 project would construct the necessary improvements to allow connection to the city sewer system. Storm Drain
Improvements, Real Road to Elcia Drive – The $771,000 proposed for this project will construct storm drain improvements. The existing storm drain system is insufficient to remove surface
water from the roadway. This condition creates flooding on South Real Road, which can be a problem to traffic and deteriorate the roadway surface. This project will remove those problems
by installing a gravity storm drain system from the intersection of Real Road and Elcia Drive to the existing storm drain sump east of Real Road. Sewer Rehabilitation, Owens Street –
A sewer study was conducted for City sewers in the southeast area of Bakersfield to determine the most critical sewer segment in need of rehabilitation. Owens Street was identified as
the sewer in the greatest need. This $631,000 project will rehabilitate the sewer line along Owens Street from East Brundage Lane to California Avenue. Fire Station No. 14 Equipment
– This project provides for communications equipment, furniture and fixtures for new Fire Station No. 14, currently under construction. Fire Station Reroofing – This project provides
for reroofing fire stations 1 and 6, which are in need of repair. Narrow Banding of Communication Equipment – This is a multi-year project which is to replace old broadband infrastructure
equipment (receivers, comparators, and repeaters) to the FCC required narrow band capacity. The conversion must be completed by December 2012. A total of fifteen (15) City channels are
impacted, including Police, Fire, Public Works, and the Water Departments. $225,000 is requested for FY 2009-10. Lowell Park Playground Rehabilitation – This CDBG funded project will
remove and replace the old and worn playground equipment at Lowell Park. Kroll Park Playground Rehabilitation – This project with Park Improvement funds will remove and replace the old
and worn playground equipment at Kroll Park. Improvements to Rabobank Arena – There are several projects proposed for Rabobank Arena and Convention Center. Several involve maintenance
of air conditioning and other mechanical equipment. Funds have been included to repair the concrete floor in the back of the Theater and Convention Center and to replace and update the
fly-rail system that controls the curtains on the Theater stage. Replace Air Conditioning Units at Various Locations – Air conditioning units are proposed to be replaced at various locations
including nine (9) air conditioning units at five xiii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 10 (5) Fire Department sites (Fire Stations 1, 6, 8, 10, and the Fire Communications
Building on Panorama); replacing coolers and the air conditioning unit at the Fleet Garage in the Corporation Yard; and replacing the air conditioning unit at the Kelso Peak Communications
Repeater System that cools the building housing the City’s radio equipment. Airport Projects – Several projects are proposed for the City’s airport, including Northwest Apron Construction
Phase I, which provides for the design of drainage, pavement improvements, and installation of tie-downs using grant funding from the Federal Aviation Administration FAA); Airport Landscaping,
totaling $50,000 of Airport funds to provide for the design and installation of landscaping and fencing around the perimeter of the Airport; and two (2) hangar door replacement projects.
Water Resources – Significant projects for the Water Resources Department include setting aside $1,750,000 towards construction of a 3 million gallon water storage tank in the southwest
and $2,100,000 for two (2) additional water wells for the City’s domestic water system. DEPARTMENT BUDGETS Below is a summary of significant changes to department budgets. The percentages
shown reflect the dollar changes to each department’s budget and differ from the percentage changes presented earlier in this document which reflect the reduction in positions by department.
Police. The proposed operating budget for the Police Department is $66,503,905, which is a 5.2% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion
of twenty-nine (29) vacant sworn and twelve (12) vacant civilian positions, as well as the potential displacement of five (5) civilian positions. Fire. The proposed operating budget
for the Fire Department is $30,876,345, which is a 2.7% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of two (2) vacant civilian positions,
transfer of seven (7) positions to other departments, and the potential displacement of four (4) civilian positions. The fire hydrant maintenance function and the related two (2) positions
have been transferred to the Water Resources Department as noted above. Because negotiations with the Fire Union were not concluded at the time the budget was being prepared, as a place
holder, the proposed budget reflects 6% less for salary increases for Fire sworn personnel in the non-departmental budget. This is being done on an interim basis and is subject to change
when negotiations are concluded. Public Works. The proposed operating budget for the Public Works Department is $91,786,413, which is a 9.1% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted
Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of forty-four (44) vacant positions. This decrease also xiv
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 11 reflects to the deferral of some purchases of equipment, as well as extending the
life of vehicles and equipment. Funding for the department comes from various sources, including the General Fund, Development Services Fund, Gas Tax Fund, Transportation Development
Fund, several enterprise funds, Equipment Management Fund, and other special revenue funds. Despite these reductions, Public Works continues to focus on Council priority items, such
as street maintenance and graffiti removal throughout the community. The proposed FY 2009-10 operating budget includes $9,828,239 for street maintenance. The proposed CIP budget includes
$23,586,038 for street resurfacing/improvements. Of this amount, $12.1 million is funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) for the reconstruction/rehabilitation of
local streets citywide and $897,462 for CDBG eligible areas. The combined operating and CIP budget for for street maintenance totals $33,414,277. The Thomas Roads Improvement Program
(TRIP) Division has been working on the federally funded transportation projects the City is pursuing, including the Westside Parkway and other TRIP projects. This Division is housed
at 900 Truxtun Avenue and staff continues to work alongside staff from Parsons Transportation Group, County of Kern Roads Department, and Caltrans in the management and delivery of these
projects. Recreation and Parks. The proposed operating budget for the Recreation and Parks Department is $16,264,892, which is a 9.7% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget.
This decrease reflects the deletion of seventeen (17) vacant positions, as well as the potential displacement of two (2) positions. Pool operating hours will be reduced by 1,210 hours,
or 17.4 percent citywide. This reduction includes swim lessons, other programs and general swim hours at selected pools. By reducing hours, the summer pool staff has been reduced by
fifty-three (53) 53) temporary positions, or 28.6 percent. In the past, spray parks have opened in mid-April and stayed open through mid-October from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. To reduce
costs, spray parks will not open until early May and will close in mid-September. The spray parks will open at 11:00 a.m. and close at 7:00 p.m. This will have minimal impacts since

Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 12 Development Services. The proposed operating budget for the Development Services
Department is $8,258,135, which is a 19.7% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of sixteen (16) vacant positions and transfer of
one (1) position to Economic and Community Development. The Development Services Department has experienced a significant slow down in the levels of development activity over the past
two fiscal years. In response to the slow down in building activity, the FY proposed 2009-10 budget includes the mid-year displacement of five (5) Building Inspector positions in the
Building Division during FY 2008-09. Economic and Community Development. The General Fund portion of the budget continues to support operating and administrative costs for Economic Development
and Redevelopment programs and activities. Redevelopment. Redevelopment activity is continuing in each of the three Redevelopment Project Areas, in addition to significant tax increment
growth, in both the Old Town Kern and Southeast Redevelopment Project Areas for FY 2009-10. The Redevelopment Budget for FY 2009-10 has been prepared in accordance with the goals and
objectives of the Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency. Significant expenditures for the three project areas are highlighted below: Downtown Redevelopment Project Area -$125,000 is budgeted
for the Downtown Enhancement Program including lighting and banner replacement. Old Town Kern Redevelopment Project Area -OTK – appropriations for Old Town Kern include principal and
interest payments for existing debt obligations on the $1.0 million Section 108 loan and the $1.0 million Cal HFA Loan used for the Baker Street Project. The proposed budget includes
$100,000 for professional and consulting services for Old Town Kern Redevelopment Projects, and $500,000 for acquisition, relocation and demolition for redevelopment projects in Old
Town Kern project area. In addition, there is $350,000 for parking lot improvements at 420 20th Street east of Mill Creek Linear Park and $500,000 for the Mill Creek Linear Park Plaza
development on 17th Street to 18th Street. Also included within the OTK low mod fund is an appropriation of $300,000 for affordable housing projects in the OTK redevelopment area. Southeast
Redevelopment Project Area -SEPA – appropriations for the southeast project area include principal and interest payments for existing debt obligations on the $1.75 million Cal HFA Loan
and the $1.6 million Section 108 loan for Fire Station #5. In the operating budget, $200,000 is appropriated for outside legal counsel and relocation services for Southeast Redevelopment
projects. Also included within the Southeast Low-Mod fund is an appropriation of $340,000 for affordable housing projects within the SE redevelopment area and $500,000 Cal HFA loan for
the Residential Development Loan Program for infill housing. xvi
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 13 Mayor. The proposed operating budget for the Mayor’s Office is $133,835, which
is an 18.1% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. The budget reflects a 7% reduction in the Mayor’s salary and other line item reductions. City Council. The proposed
operating budget for the City Council is $307,383, which is a 0.2% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. Executive. The proposed operating budget for the Executive Department
is $16,679,421, which is a 10.4% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of ten (10) vacant positions and transfer of one (1) position
to Finance to fill a current vacancy. City Attorney. The proposed operating budget for the City Attorney’s Office is $3,257,620, which is a 2.1% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09
Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of two (2) vacant positions. Financial Services. The proposed operating budget for the Finance Department is $3,392,592, which is
a 4.5% decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of three (3) vacant positions. The Finance Department has budgeted additional accounting
services provided to, and funded by, the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP). Enterprise Funds. Enterprise Funds account for business-like activities supported primarily by user
charges, such as water and wastewater utilities, refuse, and airport. Water Resources – The proposed operating budget for the Water Resources Department is $20,596,069, which is a 0.1%
decrease as compared to the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. This decrease reflects the deletion of one (1) vacant position and transfer of two (2) positions from the Fire Department associated
with the fire hydrant maintenance function. Agricultural Water Fund – The proposed operating budget for the Agricultural Water Division is $4,683,313, which is a 0.3% decrease as compared
to the the FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. Domestic Water Fund – The proposed operating budget for the Domestic Water Division is $15,912,756, which is a 0.1% decrease as compared to the
FY 2008-09 Adopted Budget. The budget proposes an increase for the quantity rate for City domestic water service customers. The current quantity rate is $0.85 per hundred cubic feet
unit. The proposed rate will increase by $0.03 to a new quantity rate of $0.88 per unit on October 1, 2009. A typical resident will see a total increase of $0.84 per month. These increases
are due to the cost of new water supply programs, and general cost increases in electricity and the operations and maintenance contract. xvii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 14 Refuse Fund – There is no proposed refuse rate increase for FY 2009-10. Staff was
able to balance the budget for the Refuse Fund based upon existing rates. However, Kern County may increase landfill fees by about 3.5 percent. Since landfill fees are shown as a line
item on commercial refuse bills in the City, commercial refuse customers may receive larger bills. Wastewater Treatment Fund – The budget proposes a 9.6 percent increase in residential
sewer user rates. The single-family residential sewer user rate would increase from $178 to $195. Since most sewer user fees are based upon this single-family rate, those rates will
also increase by the same percentage. This increase is needed to cover both operating and capital costs, in addition to servicing the debt payments on the bonds issued for the Wastewater
Treatment Plant No. 2 upgrade and Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 upgrade and expansion projects. A combination of connection fees and user fees are used to fund this debt service.
With the recent decline in development activity, there has been a commensurate drop in sewer connection fee revenue. Therefore, more of the debt service payments must be recovered through
the sewer user fee. Sewer connection fees will increase $300 per single-family household effective July 1, 2009. The fee for each single-family household will go from $3,400 to $3,700.
This increase reflects year four of a five year phase-in period. These additional funds will be applied toward the debt service payments for the Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 Expansion
Project. Sewer connection 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. This year, the budget
provides for no new equipment and $4,320,100 in replacement equipment where the useful life has been expended. During FY 2009-10, the Information Technology Division is planning to replace
ten (10) computers, eight (8) printers and 100 displays for police mobile data terminals. Risk Management Fund – The Risk Management Fund provides a self funded program for general liability
and Workers’ Compensation insurance. Additionally, excess insurance is purchased as a member of the Authority for California Cities for Excess Liability (ACCEL). Special Revenue Funds.
Special Revenue Funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. Examples are Community Development Block Grant (CDBG),
Gas Tax, Federal Transportation Funds and the Transient Lodging Tax Fund. xviii
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget -Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 15 HUD Entitlements – Community Development Block Grant (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 allocation of CDBG funds for FY 2009-10 is $3,304,357 and HOME Investment Partnership funds are $1,520,000. These entitlement amounts are about the same
amounts as we received for FY 2008-09. These funds will primarily be spent on contributions to agencies for eligible activities, police patrol in the downtown and Mill Creek area and
graffiti removal efforts. In addition, CDBG funds, in the amount of $1,613,951, are proposed for various Capital Improvement Projects in HUD eligible areas of the city. Transient Lodging
Tax Fund – The Transient Lodging Tax Fund was established in July 1998 to account for the general revenues provided by a twelve percent (12%) room tax (M.C. 3.40) and the operation and
debt related to the Rabobank Arena. This includes the contract with SMG for privatization 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 proposed
budget includes the Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) staffed by City employees within the Economic and Community Development Department. Any available Transient Lodging Tax funds,
after taking into account the City’s long term commitments for Rabobank Arena, Ice Sports Center, CVB, etc. are transferred to the City’s Capital Improvement Program budget. Contributions.
In accordance with Council policy for contributions to non-profit groups, funding is proposed to be budgeted for the Bakersfield Symphony in the amount of $50,000 and the Bakersfield
Senior Center from from CDBG funds in the amount of $85,000. SUMMARY The proposed budget reflects the unprecedented and changing economic environment we are faced with. We have made
the necessary budget reductions to operate within our available resources. This has required difficult choices and recommendations. It has also involved the hard work and cooperation
of many City employees to develop a reasoned and workable budget. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS As is the case every year, this document represents the compilation of many hours of work by many people
throughout the organization. My thanks to the department heads and their business managers, division managers and staff for submitting thorough and well-prepared budget proposals. Thanks
also goes to the Budget Team headed up by Assistant City Manager John W. Stinson, and also included Finance Director Nelson Smith, Management Assistant Rick Kirkwood, Human Resources
Manager Javier Lozano, Assistant Public xix

REVENUES
Revenues The following revenues are the primary sources which make up General Fund and Transient Lodging Tax Fund Revenues. 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 projected. 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 revenue forecast for fiscal year 2009-10 are: 1) Property tax revenues are expected to decline by 11.0% based on Kern
County assessed valuation projections; 2) Sales tax revenues are expected to decline by 5.0% compared to current year revised estimates as a result of the continued decline in economic
activity over the past year; 3) Transient Lodging Tax revenues are expected to decline by 1.8% compared to current year revised estimates as a result of fairly flat tourism and convention
activity; 4) License and Permit revenues are expected to remain fairly flat as a result of continued stagnant local construction activity; 5) Motor Vehicle In-Lieu fees reflect an 11.0%
decline as this revenue is now linked to growth in general property taxes; and 6) CDBG Entitlement and HOME Entitlement revenues are both expected to remain flat 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 1 by the
County Assessor. The State Constitution limits the real property tax rate to one percent (1.0%) 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 one percent (1.0%) 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 8.25
percent statewide. The City’s sales tax revenue is realized from the one percent (1.0%) local government portion of the total rate and the .5 percent rate (½ cent) increase approved
by the voters in November 1993 for public safety. The local one percent (1.0%) is distributed based on “point of sale” while the ½ cent for public safety is distributed ninety-five percent
(95.0%) to counties and five percent (5.0%) to cities. The one percent (1.0%) local sales tax revenue is distributed by the Board of Equalization. Cities receive payments on a quarterly
19
Revenues continued 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 sale of automobiles. Sales tax must be received into the City’s General Fund and its
uses are unrestricted. • 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: o Maintenance district services -Reimbursements for costs of operating and maintaining all public improvements which benefit a specific area; o 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 cost-reimbursement basis; and, o 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, eliminating blight and/or addressing an immediate
or urgent need in the community. While 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 including
capital projects, economic development, assistance to non-profit groups and housing. HOME is designed primarily for housing related assistance for the elderly and low-income groups.
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 thirty (30) days or more.
The City of Bakersfield has a transient lodging tax rate of twelve percent (12.0%), which was increased from ten percent (10.0%) in the 1993-94 fiscal year. The use of revenues is unrestricted.
Some cities earmark these revenues for certain business activities, business development, a Convention 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. 20
Revenues continued The fees which make up "License and Permits" include: o Building permits; o Plumbing permits; o Electrical permits; o Mechanical permits; o Street and curb permits;
and, o 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 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 (2.0%) of the market value of motor vehicles and is imposed annually
by the state in-lieu of local property taxes. Originally motor vehicles were counted in the local property tax assessment, but for ease of administration and conformity, the State now
collects these fees through the in-lieu tax. 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-for-dollar 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(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. It is included in the General Fund to help support fire and police services,

the electrification of diesel powered equipment at the Mount Vernon Recycling Facility to reduce air pollution. 3. Obtained regulatory approval for the final landfill closure plan for
the former Bakersfield Landfill. FY 2009-10 SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CHANGES 1. The FY 2009-10 Proposed Budget reflects Council’s continuing commitment to the graffiti eradication program.
The amount budgeted for graffiti eradication provides sufficient funding to operate the program seven days a week, year round. 2. The FY 2009-10 proposed operating budget continues the
City Council’s commitment to the street maintenance program. Approximately $9.8 million is proposed for street maintenance activities within the operating budget. The proposed CIP budget
for street street maintenance totals approximately $23.6 million. Of this amount, $12,997,462 is due to the federal economic stimulus package, commonly referred to as ARRA (American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act). Therefore, the combined operating and CIP budget proposed for FY 2009-10 totals $33.4 million. 3. The refuse rate is proposed to stay at same level as
FY 2008-09 for FY 2009-10. Staff was able to balance the proposed budget for the Refuse Fund based upon 111
Public Works continued existing rates. However, Kern County may increase landfill fees by 3.5%. Since landfill fees are shown as a line item on the City’s commercial refuse bills, commercial
refuse customers may receive larger bills. This a pass-through cost to the City’s customers. 4. A 9.6% increase in all residential sewer user fees is proposed for FY 2009-10. The residential
single-family sewer rate would increase from $178 to $195. Since most sewer user fees are based upon this single-family rate, those rates will also increase by the same percentage. This
increase is needed to cover both operating and capital costs, in addition to service the debt payments on the bonds issued for the Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2 upgrade and the Wastewater
Treatment Plant No. 3 upgrade and expansion projects. A combination of connection fees and user fees are used to fund this debt service. With the recent decline in development activity,
there has been a commensurate drop in sewer connection fee revenue. Therefore, more of the debt service payments must be recovered through the sewer user fee. 5. Sewer connection fees
are proposed to increase $300 per single-family household effective July 1, 2009. The fee for each single-family household would go from $3,400 to $3,700. This increase reflects year

on the wastewater treatment plant expansion project. Sixty percent (60%) of the project has been completed with a cumulative change order amount of $1.7 million dollars, or 0.80% of
total construction costs. This change order percentage is well below industry standards. 4. Completed an application package for a renewable energy incentive rebate from PG&E. A rebate
of up to $1 million dollars will be available at the completion of the WWTP #3 Expansion Project. This rebate is possible because the WWTP #3 Expansion Project includes a large engine/generator
system that will greatly offset the demand to purchase electricity off the grid. 5. Pretreatment Inspection Section: Completed Best Management Practices information packets for mobile
car wash companies. This packet is designed to educate mobile car wash companies about proper disposal practices in order to protect wastewater facilities and storm drain systems. Packets
will be available in both English and Spanish. 6. Pretreatment Inspection Section: Conducted restaurant inspections for proper grease and wastewater disposal. Over 200 restaurants have
been inspected. 7. Revenue Section: Updated the Septage Hauler billing process to increase efficiency. The billing process went from a three day process to under one day. 132
4071– Wastewater continued FY 2009-10 ACTION PLAN 1. Provide continuous operation and maintenance of Wastewater Treatment Plants No. 2 and No. 3; perform State required analysis of wastewater
to demonstrate compliance with discharge requirements; and, submit results monthly to the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (CRWQCB). 2. Provide a safe environment for
employees with continuous safety training and endorsement of safe working practices. 3. Conduct annual sampling and inspection of all permitted industries and submit results to the CRWQCB.
4. Review monthly City Building Department reports and annual water consumption records to update the flat rate and surcharge billings lists. Bill septage haulers by the 15th of each
month. 5. Plan and implement a marketing initiative directed at septage haulers in the Central, Coastal and Southern California areas to make them aware of WWTP # 2 and 3’s ability to
accept grease and septage. The goal of this effort will be to increase income which will offset operation and maintenance costs and improve energy efficiency at the Plants. Grease greatly
increases the ability to create the renewable energy resource methane gas which will fuel the on-site electrical generating system. 6. Review fines and annual pretreatment monitoring
fees other municipalities charge commercial users. 7. Conduct second septage hauler workshop with Kern County on septage hauler issues. Kern County and the City have similar goals to
enforce proper procedures that septage haulers need to follow to protect the public. 8. Continue construction for expansion of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3. Construction should be
completed in May 2010. 9. Initiate mobile washer inspections this year and distribute Best Management Practices information packet during these inspections. 10. Continue restaurant inspections
for proper grease and wastewater disposal. SERVICE LEVEL INDICATORS FY 07-08 FY 08-09 FY 09-10 Actual Projected Proposed Wastewater Treated (Million Gallons/Day) Plant 2 15.09 14.56

and sports trade publications. 7. Organized and promoted a tour of the Kern County Museum, Buena Vista Museum of Natural History, California Living Museum and the Bakersfield Museum
of Art for the staff of local hotels. Sixty (60) employees from fourteen (14) hotels attended and can now better answer a visitor’s question, “What is there to do in Bakersfield?” The
tour educated the first point of contact that most visitors have with the city, the hotel front desk staff. They came away from the tour with a much better image of Bakersfield. 181
6590 Convention and Visitors Bureau continued FY 2009-10 ACTION PLAN 1. Build on contacts made last year to establish working relationships with meeting and event planners. 2. Continue
to mine both locally and at trade shows the government, corporate and association meeting business to penetrate those markets emphasizing Bakersfield’s central location and affordability
for meetings. 3. Review marketing plan and adjust as necessary. 4. Continue to build on positive relations with the local hotel community and present them with more opportunities to
increase their business. SERVICE LEVEL INDICATORS FY 07-08 FY 08-09 FY 09-10 PROJECT/ACTIVITY Actual Projected Proposed Respond to requests for information 1,144 1,258 1,200 Attend trade

NON-DEPARTMENTAL
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 recent
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 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. • 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.
• Potential COLA Increases – Negotiations with various employee bargaining units are currently in process and have yet to be finalized. Funds have been set aside for the cost of living
adjustments (COLA’s) which may result from these negotiations. • Contingency -The Contingency fund is intended to cover unanticipated expenditures which the City Council decides to fund
throughout the fiscal year. 185

ECONOMIC STIMULUS
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Federal Economic Stimulus Program) On February 17, 2009, President Barack Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act (ARRA) of 2009. The ARRA was developed as a response to the national economic crisis, the likes of which has not been seen since the Great Depression. The ARRA has a stated goal
of creating or saving more than 3.5 million jobs over the next two years. This goal is to be accomplished through significant nationwide investments in both the public and private sectors.
This will include substantial investment in areas such as public infrastructure development, public safety and the development of renewable energy programs, to name just a few. ARRA
funds will be distributed throughout the nation in two primary ways, through formula grants provided directly to various jurisdictions and through a competitive process where agencies
compete nationwide for program funding. While the City has already been notified that it will receive funding through several formula based programs, it will take advantage of every
opportunity to go after competitive funding where appropriate. In an effort to provide clear transparency and accountability with regards to ARRA resources, the City has set up separate
funds (183 &184) in the budget designated specifically for ARRA revenues. Below is a summary of the formula funding that is included in the FY 2009-10 budget. Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) – ARRA provided $1.0 billion nationwide to support CDBG programs in entitlement communities. These funds are distributed on a formula basis and provide funding for activities
that benefit low-and moderate-income individuals by addressing community development needs. Homelessness Prevention – ARRA provided $1.5 billion nationwide for homelessness prevention
and rapid re-housing activities. These funds are distributed on a formula basis and must be used for short-term or medium-term rental assistance, housing relocations and stabilization
services. Highway Infrastructure – ARRA provided $27.5 billion nationwide for highway infrastructure funding. These funds are distributed on a formula basis and may be used for any project
eligible under the surface transportation program. Byrne JAG (Formula) – ARRA provided $2 billion nationwide for the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program. These funds
are distributed on a formula basis and allow local governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime and to improve the criminal justice system. Energy
Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant – ARRA provided $3.2 billion nationwide for the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program. These funds are distributed both by formula
and on a competitive basis and are designed to support a wide range of energy efficiency projects. These projects are to focus on implementing strategies to reduce energy use and improve
energy efficiency among other goals. 187

Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-14 Proposed CIP – Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 2 Thomas Road Improvement Program (TRIP) -The amount requested for various TRIP projects
totals $12,500,000. • Centennial Corridor – Hageman Flyover -$2,150,000 • Rosedale Highway Widening -$450,000 • 24th Street Widening – Elm to D street -$1,300,000 • SR-178 – Morning
Drive Interchange -$5,350,000 • SR-178 Widening – Mesa Marin to Rancheria Road -$3,250,000 The local match required by the City for these five projects will be approximately $1,435,000
and is part of these budgeted funds. Traffic impact fee revenue provides the funding for the local match requirements. ARRA Funds – A total of $16,038,162 in American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009 (ARRA) funds are included in the Capital Improvement budget. This includes $3,040,000 for a solar energy project at Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 (this project also includes
an additional $2,000,000 in funding from the Sewer Enterprise fund); $12.1 million in Highway Infrastructure funding for pavement rehabilitation projects throughout the city; and $897,462
in CDBG funding for pavement rehabilitation in CDBG eligible areas. Reconstruction of Various Streets – This project directly ties to Council goals for the street maintenance program.
Federal transportation funds of $3,791,542 are proposed for the SAFETEA -LU Fund, with the corresponding local match of $491,234 coming from the City’s share of state gasoline taxes
as accounted for within the Gas Tax Fund. Resurfacing Funds for Streets Division – The proposed budget includes $3,250,000 of Capital Outlay funds for the Streets Division to continue
street resurfacing/reconstruction work. This amount is an increase of $1 million above the amount of Capital Outlay funds budgeted for street resurfacing in FY 2008-09. Traffic Signal
Coordination – The two proposed projects, Traffic Monitoring Camera and Traffic Signal Interconnect, are to be funded 88.53% with federal Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ) funds
and 11.47% with Gas Tax Funds. Both projects will improve signal timing, thus reducing traffic congestion, and vehicle emissions. The $230,000 Traffic Monitoring Camera Project will
add video capability from three (3) specific intersections to the Traffic Operations Center. The $785,000 Traffic Signal Interconnect Project will add signal communication infrastructure
and link an additional ten (10) signals to the Traffic Operations Center. New Traffic Signals – There are a total of eight (8) new traffic signals proposed in the CIP. New traffic signals
are proposed for Hageman Road at Old Farm Road, Olive Drive at Verdugo, Hosking at Wible, Buena Vista at Campus Park, and Berkshire at Stine Road, using Traffic Development Funds. These
intersections meet warrants for 244
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-14 Proposed CIP – Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 3 installation of a traffic signal as established by Federal and State requirements.
Additionally, the proposed budget includes CMAQ funding for three (3) traffic signals. The three (3) signals will be located at Agate at Planz, Hosking Avenue at South H Street, and
Buena Vista at Harris. Street Improvement, Quiet Zone – This $237,800 project is proposed to close two (2) at-grade highway /rail crossings on the BNSF rail line at Beale Avenue and
Gage Street /21st Street. This closure is a requirement of establishing the quiet zone corridor on the Mojave Subdivision from L Street to Sumner Street. Median Islands, Mt Vernon Avenue,
from SR-178 to Columbus Street – Adding median islands will provide structured channelization, eliminate illegal turns and crossings, and thus make the area much safer. The cost for
this proposed project is estimated at $194,000. Bridge Retrofit, Manor Avenue at the Kern River – This $100,000 proposed project is part of the seismic retrofit program. Design was completed
in 2004. Construction of the project was postponed because of a lack of state funding. With this proposed funding, the consultant will revise the original design to meet current standards
and staff will initiate environmental clearance. Street Improvement, West Portion of Wible Road, North of Arvin Edison Canal – With the exception of a small segment, Wible Road south
of Panama Lane has been widened to full arterial width. This one remaining segment causes a traffic bottleneck. The adjacent property to this segment is an existing large sized, single
family dwelling unit. Therefore, there is a need to construct street improvements along this segment. This $176,000 proposed project qualifies for traffic impact fee funding as a gap
project. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 2007 Expansion – Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 2007 Expansion project will double the treatment capacity of this Plant. Based on current
growth projections, this extra capacity will serve the residents of Bakersfield at least until the year 2025. The core treatment processes are being updated with state of the art technology
to efficiently produce a quality treated odor free effluent. The proposed FY 2009-10 budget includes $2 million for a potential amendment to the construction management and design consultant’s
agreements for additional work. Sewer Improvement, Hooper Avenue – The Hooper Avenue neighborhood was recently annexed into the City. Property owners in this area have requested City
sewer service. This $890,000 project will construct the necessary improvements to allow connection to the sewer system for those requesting service. Sewer Improvement, Kimberly Avenue
– The Kimberly Avenue neighborhood is currently in the process of being annexed into the City. Once annexed, this $495,000 245
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-14 Proposed CIP – Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 4 project would construct the necessary improvements to allow connection to the City
sewer system. Storm Drain Improvements, Real Road to Elcia Drive – The $771,000 proposed for this project will construct storm drain improvements. The existing storm drain system is
insufficient to remove surface water from the roadway. This condition creates flooding on South Real Road, which can be a problem to traffic and deteriorate the roadway surface. This
project will remove those problems by installing a gravity storm drain system from the intersection of Real Road and Elcia Drive to the existing storm drain sump east of Real Road. Sewer
Rehabilitation, Owens Street – A sewer study was conducted for City sewers in the southeast area of Bakersfield to determine the most critical sewer segment in need of rehabilitation.
Owens Street was identified as the sewer in the greatest need. This $631,000 project will rehabilitate the sewer line along Owens Street from East Brundage Lane to California Avenue.
Narrow Banding of Communication Equipment – This is a multi-year project to replace old broadband infrastructure equipment (receivers, comparators, and repeaters) to the FCC required
narrow band capacity. The conversion must be completed by December 2012. A total of fifteen (15) City channels are impacted, including Police, Fire, Public Works, and the Water Departments.
$225,000 is requested for FY 2009-10. Replace Air Conditioning Units at Various Locations – Air conditioning units are proposed to be replaced at various locations including nine (9)
air conditioning units at five (5) Fire Department sites (Fire Stations 1, 6, 8, 10, and the Fire Communications Building on Panorama); replacing coolers and the air conditioning unit
at the Fleet Garage in the Corporation Yard; and replacing the air conditioning unit at the Kelso Peak Communications Repeater System that cools the building housing the City’s radio
equipment. Airport Projects – Several projects are proposed for the City’s airport, including Northwest Apron Construction Phase I, which provides for the design of drainage, pavement
improvements, and installation of tie-downs using grant funding from the Federal Aviation Administration FAA); Airport Landscaping, totaling $50,000 of Airport funds to provide for the
design and installation of landscaping and fencing around the perimeter of the Airport; and two (2) hangar door replacement projects. Water Resources – Significant projects for the Water
Resources Department include setting aside $$1,750,000 towards construction of a 3 million gallon water storage tank in the southwest and $2,100,000 for two (2) additional water wells
for the City’s domestic water system. 246
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-14 Proposed CIP – Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 5 The proposed FY 2009-10 CIP budget includes numerous projects within the Capital Outlay
Fund for design, construction, maintenance, and repair of various City facilities. Some of the more significant projects for FY 2009-10 include the following: Fire Station No. 14 Equipment
– This project provides for communications equipment, furniture and fixtures for new Fire Station No. 14, currently under construction. Fire Station Reroofing – This project provides
for reroofing fire stations 1 and 6, which are in need of repair. Improvements to Rabobank Arena – There are several projects proposed for Rabobank Arena and Convention Center. Several
involve maintenance of air conditioning and other mechanical equipment. Funds have been included to repair the concrete floor in the back of the Theater and Convention Center and to
replace and update the fly-rail system that controls the curtains on the Theater stage. Kroll Park Playground Rehabilitation – This project with Park Improvement funds will remove and
replace the old and worn playground equipment at Kroll Park. The proposed FY 2009-10 CIP budget includes a significant number of projects to be funded with Community Development Block
Grants (CDBG), including the following: Curb & Gutter, California & P – This $800,000 project using CDBG funds will install curb, gutter, and sidewalk prior to reconstructing and paving
streets as needed in this area. Currently, water sits causing pavement failures in the street, as well as causing concern among residents regarding the West Niles Virus. Curb & Gutter,
Alta Vista – This $500,000 project using CDBG funds will install curb, gutter, and sidewalk prior to reconstructing and paving streets as needed in this area. Currently, water sits causing
pavement failures in the street, as well as causing concern among residents regarding the West Niles Virus. Fairground Annexation Improvements – This CDBG project will complete the requirements
of Agreement No. 08-155 between the City and the County. This agreement requires the City to install standard six feet sidewalk along the east side of South “P” Street between Belle
Terrace and the south property line of the Fairgrounds. The total cost for this proposed project is $205,800, with $90,000 funded with CDBG monies and $115,800 funded with Capital Outlay
monies. Sewer Improvement, Terrace Way from Wible Road to Stephens Drive – This $65,500 project will install gravity sanitary sewer improvements to provide recently annexed homes with
City sewer service. The budget includes funds to allow qualified low-income homeowners to receive assistance to cover both sewer connection fees and septic tank abandonment fees. 247
Honorable Mayor and City Council FY 2009-14 Proposed CIP – Letter of Transmittal May 6, 2009 Page 6 Lowell Park Playground Rehabilitation – This CDBG funded project will remove and replace
the old and worn playground equipment at Lowell Park. There are several projects funded in the proposed FY 2009-10 CIP budget with redevelopment funds, including: Mill Creek Linear Park
Plaza – Proposed budget of $500,000 to be used towards the development of a new plaza located at 17th Street. Improvements for this plaza have already been designed as part of the overall
Mill Creek Project in the Old Town Kern Project area. Parking Improvement 20th Street, East of Central Park – This $350,000 project funded by tax increment will add parking for the Mill
Creek Project area. The development of the Mill Creek Linear Park in Central Park will enhance the Park and increase the activities. This will create a need for additional parking. This
new parking lot will add approximately 100 parking stalls within easy walking access to to the Park. The total project cost is estimated at $900,000. The proposed budget of $350,000
reflects funds currently available for this project. ED/CD staff is applying for grants to cover the unfunded portion of this project. SUMMARY In summary, staff is pleased to present
the Capital Improvement Program budget fiveyeea plan for 2009-14, and the proposed FY 2009-10 Capital Improvement Program budget. The projects contained within these budgets represent
a wide range of improvements to our infrastructure that will ensure the safety of our City facilities and enhance the aesthetics of our community. As our community grows, its needs will
change. Staff has provided Council the necessary information to facilitate long-range planning and allow flexibility to address changing priorities. Thanks to Assistant City Manager

City Council Goals -November 2007 Page 10 Note: Goals without target completion dates are ongoing. City of Bakersfield -Guiding Principles In addition to the City Council Goals, the
City of Bakersfield recognizes the following guiding principles in providing public services to the Citizens of Bakersfield: • To maintain responsible fiscal policies which insure fiscal
solvency, promote the pursuit of grants and private donations, maintain the lowest possible fee structure for all services and streamline government operations to be more responsive
and cost effective. • To recognize that pension costs are a large percentage of the General Fund and to therefore pursue fiscal policies which prudently govern such costs. • To encourage
utilization of local vendors wherever possible and continue an investment policy that provides opportunities for City funds to be invested locally if all other conditions such as rate
of return are the same. • To attract and foster a qualified workforce by creating an environment that encourages employees to achieve and provide quality customer service. • To maintain
positive and effective labor and employee relations through enhanced employee reward and recognition programs, involving all staff in implementing the goals and objectives of the City.
• Continue to implement cultural diversity in all aspects of the employment process. • Provide safe working conditions and train employees in sound safety practices. • Improve city government
communications which promote a positive image of the City’s projects, programs and accomplishments. • Continue enhancement to the public communications process, including use of television

and other citizen feedback information; and distribution of city-wide publications. • Provide more positive council interaction with public through improved response to citizen complaints
and inquiries through use of constituent tracking software. • Improve internal Council relations by promoting common goals, respecting individual positions on issues, reducing the level

reduce the duplication of public services. • Research, evaluate and implement emerging technologies which would enhance the provision of City services by making them more effective and
efficient. • Explore new or alternative funding mechanisms, including the pursuit of grant funding for constructing and staffing new programs and facilities. • Continue to provide consistent
urban services within the metropolitan area defined by the City’s General Plan. • Adhere to City Statement of Water Resources Policy in preserving the quality and quantity of City‘s

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 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 30th of each year. The Council may at any time refer specific budget issues to the Budget and Finance Committee
as necessary. 289

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 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 – 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 – The smallest expenditure detail in department budgets. 291
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 longteer 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. 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. 292
Basis of Accounting and Budgeting continued 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. 293
Investment Policy The Investment Policy of the City of Bakersfield as adopted by Policy Resolution No. 213-03, 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 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. 294
Budget Amendment Process I. STATEMENT A. Generally, a budget is a financial plan including appropriations, which constitute expenditure authorizations with specific limitations as to
amount, purpose and time. Administrative budgetary control is exercised within each fund for each department at the object group level. The object groups are as follows: 1. Personnel
Services 2. Operations (Supplies and Services) 3. Council Contingency 4. Capital Outlay 5. Debt Service 6. Interfund Transfers II. PROCEDURE A. City Council authorization is required
in order to: 1. Increase the total appropriations of a fund. 2. Transfer appropriations from one fund to another fund. 3. Transfer appropriations from Council Contingency Object Account
to another object account. 4. Transfer appropriations from capital improvement subprograms to operating subprograms. B. City Manager (or designee) authorization is required in order
to: 1. Decrease the total appropriations of a fund. 2. Transfer appropriations from operating subprograms subprograms to capital improvement subprograms for funded projects within a
fund. 3. Transfer appropriations from one funded capital improvement project to another funded capital improvement project within a fund. 4. Transfer appropriations from one department
operating subprogram to another department operating subprogram within a fund. 5. Transfer appropriations from one operating object group to another operating object group within a fund.
C. Department Head (or designee) authorization is required in order to: 1. Transfer appropriations from one operating subprogram to another operating subprogram (within a department),
within the same object group and fund. 2. Transfer of appropriations from one object account to another object account within the same object group and subprogram and fund is permitted,
but is discouraged. D. Appropriations carried forward from the prior year are to be used only for the purpose originally intended. Therefore, the transfer of carried forward appropriations
to current budget appropriation is not permitted. 295

GLOSSARY
Glossary -A -ACCOUNTING SYSTEM – The total structure of records and procedures to 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. ARRA – American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Developed in response to the national economic crisis for the Federal Government to make
significant investments in both the public and private sectors. ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET – An outline of planned governmental expenditures, revenues, activities, programs and objectives
for the fiscal year. A financial plan that consists of policy and funding priorities, as well as a presentation of the economic outlook for a given fiscal year. APPROPRIATION – A legal
authorization and allocation granted by the Council to make expenditures of governmental resources (revenues) for specific purposes. ASSET − An economic resource or probable future benefit

sum of money, called the face value or principal amount, at a specified date or dates in the future, called the maturity date(s), together with periodic interest at a specified rate.
The City sells bonds as a means of borrowing revenue for costly projects and repays the debt to the lender over an extended period of time, similar to the manner in which a homeowner
repays a mortgage. A bond differs from a note in two ways. A bond is issued for a longer period of time than a note and requires greater legal formality. Bonds are primarily used to
finance capital projects. BUDGET AMENDMENT – Legal means by which an adopted expenditure authorization or limit is increased and could be authorized with a publication, a hearing, or
a recertifficatio of the budget. BUDGET CALENDAR − A timetable showing when particular tasks must be be completed in order for the council to approve the spending plan before the beginning

Council, it becomes the City’s Annual Operating Budget. The operating budget provides for direct services and support functions of the City (e.g., Police, Fire, Public Works, etc.).
The capital budget (Capital Improvement Program) provides for improvements to the City’s infrastructure and facilities, and utilizes long-term financing instruments. (See also Adopted
Budget, Annual Operating Budget, Balanced Budget, Capital Improvement Program Budget, Operating Budget.) BUDGET HEARING – A public meeting to allow citizens to comment on the proposed
budget. BUDGET MANUAL − A booklet prepared by the budget office that includes, at a minimum, the budget calendar, the forms departments need to prepare their budget requests, and a description
