San Bruno City Council Meeting June 28, 2011
8. Public Hearings: Approve 2011-12 City Budgets
A
I'd
remember:
a
public
hearings.
Notices
have
been
published,
posted
and
mailed
hold
a
public
hearing
and
adopted
resolutions
we're
going
to
one
public
hearing
in
four
actions:
item
a
approving
the
city,
manager's
recommended
2011-2012
general
fund,
special
revenue
funds
and
enterprise
funds;
budget
staff
report,
please
city
manager.
Mr.
B
First
of
all,
there
are
three
items
that
are
the
subject
of
this
public
hearing.
You
can
conduct
single
public
hearing
to
consider
all
of
them.
At
the
same
time,
those
include
the
general
fund
and
special
revenue
and
Enterprise
Fund
budgets,
the
Redevelopment
Agency
budget,
and
there
is
an
item
regarding
the
redevelopment
Housing
operations.
That
is
a
required
action
in
conjunction
with
adoption
of
the
budget.
We've
included
a
fourth
item
in
the
list
in
your
agenda
for
approval
of
the
Gann
limit,
and
the
finance
director
will
talk
to
you
about
that
separately.
B
Lastly,
before
I,
I
turn
over
the
more
detailed
comments
to
the
finance
director.
I
wanted
to
call
your
attention
to
a
couple
of
items
that
are
on
the
dias
in
front
of
you
tonight
and
ask
your
consideration
of
a
slight
change
to
the
way
that
this
item
was
prepared
and
presented
to
you
for
approval
tonight.
B
What
you
have
in
front
of
you
would
I
think
you
have
in
front
of
you
is
a
revised
copy
of
both
the
staff
report
and
that
identifies
and
highlights
a
couple
of
financial
issues
and
is
intended
for
the
purposes
of
sibley
of
clarification
that
elaborate
on
some
of
the
items
that
have
been
modified
in
the
budget.
Since
the
time
that
you
conducted
study
sessions
last
week
and
again,
the
finance
director
will
go
into
that
a
little
bit
more
completely.
B
More
specifically,
I
want
to
call
your
attention
to
a
resolution.
That's
titled,
approving
tentative
water
and
wastewater
Enterprise,
Fund
budgets
for
fiscal
year,
2011-12,
specifically
the
city
that
your
staff
is
asking
for
you
to
consider,
holding
the
public
hearing,
reviewing
the
budgets
and
acting
on
all
of
them
tonight.
B
But
in
order
to
allow
the
council
a
little
bit
more
time
to
consider
some
of
the
details
in
the
specifics
of
the
enterprise
budgets,
which
both
of
which
the
water
and
the
wastewater
Enterprise
budgets
have
experienced.
Some
amount
of
significant
change
in
the
expenditure
program
related
to
a
variety
of
factors
that
are
relevant
among
them,
including
the
significant
rate
increase
through
the
San
Francisco
PUC
for
the
portion
of
our
water
that
we
purchase
and,
secondly,
in
the
wastewater
Enterprise.
B
B
So
with
that
I'd
like
to
ask
the
finance
director
to
walk
through
from
a
big
picture
overview
perspective
of
the
budgets
that
are
in
front
of
you
tonight
and
we'll
be
happy
to
take
any
comments
or
questions
again.
This
is
a
public
hearing
items.
So,
following
our
comments,
you'll
need
to
open
and
consider.
Come
it
open.
A
public
hearing
and
considered
comments
from
anybody
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
are.
A
Talked
about
item
a
a
B
as
approving
the
city,
manager's
recommended
2011-12
salmon
redevelopment
agency
budget
and
C
will
be
determining
that
the
planning
and
administration
expenses
funded
in
fiscal
year,
2011-12,
bible,
low
and
moderate-income
housing
fund
are
necessary
for
the
production,
improvement
and
or
preservation
of
affordable
housing
for
low
and
moderate
income.
Households
and
diaz.
The
city
manager
said,
is
adopt
a
resolution
approving
the
city's
appropriation
limit
of
30
million
six
hundred
and
5771
dollars
for
fiscal
year
2011-12,
which
is
the
GAM
limit.
A
C
You
mr.
mayor
good
meeting
members
of
the
City
Council,
it
been
soon
finance
director
in
looking
at
the
current
fiscal
year.
One
of
the
things
that
we're
seeing
having
now
11
months
of
information
is
that
we're
seeing
an
improvement
in
the
revenue
picture
for
the
general
fund
as
a
result
of
that
were
projecting
that
the
deficit
that
we
had
forecasted
when
we
prepared
the
2010-11
budget
will
be
eliminated
in
its
entirety
and
in
fact
we
would
have
a
positive
balance
of
boxing
$100,000
that
we
can
care
for
it.
Along
with
that
picture.
C
C
It
still
continued.
There
is
a
expenditure
hit
in
terms
of
CalPERS
rate
increases
and
that
works
out
to
be
about
six
hundred
fourteen
thousand
dollars
against
the
general
fund
and
then,
in
terms
of
the
furlough.
We
currently
have
approximately
at
3.12
five
percent
sour
reduction,
that's
incorporated
into
the
budget
for
1112
and
then,
lastly,
in
terms
of
expenditures
were
assuming
that
the
increase
in
medical
premiums
would
be
covered
with
additional
farol
time.
C
That
would
be
resulting
in
that
pay
reduction
for
staff
in
looking
at
the
general
fund
revenues,
if
you
can
focus
in
on
column,
two
in
column,
3
column,
2
is
really
what
we're
estimating
for
the
fiscal
year
to
end
in
terms
of
revenues,
and
you
compare
that
to
column
3,
which
is
what
we're
proposing
for
the
budget
and
the
443,000.
Our
aggregate
difference
represents
a
less
than
1.5
percent
change
between
what
we're
estimating
for
the
M
results
for
revenues
for
this
year,
compared
to
what
we're
proposing
for
next
year.
C
So,
with
that
background
information,
what
we're
proposing
in
terms
of
11
12
budget
is
an
operating
revenue,
number
of
31
million
891
677
against
an
operating
expenditure
budget
of
32
million
237
748,
therefore
leaving
a
deficit
of
346
thousand
dollars
and
71
340
6071
dollars,
I'm
sorry!
So,
as
I
alluded
to
earlier,
there
is
a
surplus
that
we're
expecting
from
10-11,
so
that
surplus
is
going
to
be
added
onto
the
estimated
unfunded
I'm.
An
estimated
undesignated
fund
balance
that
we're
going
to
project
for
the
end
of
this
year
at
six-thirty.
C
C
When
we
went
to
City
Council
with
the
to
study
sessions
last
week,
we
also
included
some
supplemental
budgets
and
adjustments
enhancements
that
were
that
included
in
the
numbers
now
we've
since
folded,
those
numbers
into
the
budget
document
and
just
wanted
to
go
over
some
of
those
enhancements
there.
In
the
general
fund,
we
have
in
the
budget
in
the
City
Council
budget,
a
ten-thousand-dollar
addition
for
the
planning
efforts
for
our
centennial.
C
So
that's
now
been
added
there
in
the
finance
department
budget,
we've
added
fifteen
thousand
dollars
for
an
update
of
the
city's
cost
allocation
plan,
and
then
in
the
redevelopment
budget,
we've
identified
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
the
same
unal
entrepreneur,
ship
program
and
elastin
the
waste
water
fund.
We
have
identified
an
Associated
associate
engineer
necessary
to
administer
the
sewer
CIP
projects
and
that
comes
with
a
cost
of
122
dollars,
122,000
and
178
dollars.
C
The
governor
has
proposed
a
budget
that
includes
the
elimination
of
redevelopment,
with
the
condition
that,
if
city's
volunteer
to
pay
into
a
fund
to
help
the
state
close,
this
budget
deficit
that
gap,
the
redevelopment
agencies
with
still
be
Allah
continued
to
exist.
That
has
not
been
incorporated
into
the
budget
and
asked
the
state
budget
continues
to
info
and
we
get
better
information.
Obviously
we
may
come
back
to
City
Council
in
terms
of
adjustment
of
the
Redevelopment
Agency
budget.
C
The
next
few
slides
will
basically
going
to
identify
what
we
recommend
it
in
terms
of
the
study
sessions
and
how
we
got
to
the
final
budgets.
In
terms
of
the
general
fund,
we
started
at
an
appropriation
number
of
32
million
214
to
48
through
the
discussions
of
the
study
session.
Aggregate
change
works
out
to
be
twenty
three
thousand
five
hundred
hours,
twenty-three
thousand
five
hundred
hours;
I'm
sorry
composing
of
the
ten
thousand
dollars
in
the
centennial
celebration,
fifteen
thousand
dollars
in
the
cost
allocation
plan
and
adjustment
in
terms
of
Ravel
professional
development
of
1500
hours.
C
Enterprise
Fund.
We
updated
the
Enterprise
Fund
appropriations
with
information
from
the
SPU
San
Francisco
Public,
Utilities
Commission
in
terms
of
rates,
so
that
actually
reduce
our
expenditures
by
two
hundred
four
thousand
dollars
and
then
also
an
adjustment
and
professional
development
of
two
hundred
fifty
dollars
in
the
wastewater
fund.
C
There
was
an
adjustment,
as
we've
discussed
earlier,
adding
the
Associated
engineer
as
a
supplemental
that
worked
out
to
be
higher
in
twenty
2122
thousands
hundred
seventy
eight
dollars
and
then
also
a
professional
development
associated
with
that
position
works
out
to
be
five
hundred
dollars
and
then,
lastly,
in
terms
of
the
RDA,
the
one
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
the
Entrepreneurship
program
bringing
the
total
corporation
there,
25
million
421,
585
and
solid
waste.
Also
an
adjustment
in
terms
of
the
film
professional
development
line
item.
C
A
Questions
of
the
finest
director
at
this
time,
Irene
you're,
all
right.
Okay,
at
this
time,
we'll
open
the
public
hearing.
Would
anyone
in
the
the
audience
like
to
discuss
this
matter
with
the
City
Council
if
we
close
the
public
hearing
you're
going
to
be
precluded
for
it
from
discussing
these
items
with
us
before
we
vote,
so
your
last
chance,
any
action
move
to
close
the
public
hearing?
I'm.
Sorry,
oh.
D
E
C
Obviously,
the
governor
has
back
in
january
early
as
january,
proposed
the
elimination
of
redevelopment,
and
we
continue
to
look
at
that,
and
you
know,
based
on
the
latest
information
that
we
cut
we
received
from
the
governor
in
terms
of
his
budget
proposal
that
is
still
in
place
and
as
I
indicated
earlier,
we
would
once
that
that's
the
subtle
so
to
speak.
We
will
then
have
to
go
back
into
our
budget
and
look
at
potentially
revising
at
to
match
up
to
what
the
state
is
proposing
to
do
right.
D
I
mean,
as
are
you
setting
up
in
a
totally
adversarial
relationship
with
state
regarding
the
redevelopment
situation
or
because
of
I
feel
personally
that
if
the
state
is
not
doing
well,
then
the
smaller
communities
are
going
to
have
a
tougher
time
as
well.
I
mean
it
is.
Our
state
is
the
tenth
largest
economy
in
the
world,
so
it's
the
state
does
well
and
consequently
I
think
the
small
communities
like
ours
would
do
wells
yeah,
especially
if
we
show
that
we're
contribu,
cooperating
right.
A
The
issue
we
have
gym,
I
think,
is-
and
I
just
made
me
speak
for
the
council-
is
that
yeah?
You
know
we
have
to
balance
our
budget.
Yes,
we
started
this
redevelopment
agency
a
number
of
years
late.
Now
it's
just
fledgling,
but
I
mean
you
wouldn't
see,
what's
happening
at
the
crossing
or
or
some
of
the
stuff,
this
downtown,
if
we
didn't
have
it
and
we're
just
starting
to
build
this
up
and
now
the
state
took
a
large
chunk
of
money
from
us
last
year
is
wants
to
take
another.
A
One
in
fact
wants
to
eliminate
redevelopment,
maybe
because
you
know
they
feel
that
some
of
the
larger
agencies
over
the
years
have
have
really.
You
know,
done
a
different
kind
of
job
than
we're
doing
here.
So
we're
watching
it
very
very
closely,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
even
if
they
decide
to
officially
at
the
state
level
eliminate
redevelopment,
there
are
huge
lawsuits
being
planned
by
the
League
of
California
cities.
A
A
B
Just
wanted
to
it
make
some
more
specific
comments
to
round
out
with
the
finance
director
said
and
I
and
I
think
there
are.
There
are
pros
and
cons
on
all
sides
of
this
issue,
which
you
think
you're
you're
suggesting
in
your
comments.
The
most
current
proposals
currently
on
the
governor's
desk
and
in
front
of
the
legislature,
involve
an
action
to
eliminate
redevelopment
and
then
immediately
subsequently
to
reestablish
redevelopment
agencies
with
requirements
for
annual
contributions
of
tax
increment
to
the
state.
B
D
B
The
sanrio
redevelopment
agency
is
prepared
to
make
the
contributions,
as
we
currently
understand
what
those
might
be
and
so
I
think
that
we're
trying
to
maintain
it
both
a
constant
awareness
but
to
understand
what
the
various
issues
are
on
on
all
sides
of
the
coin
and
unfortunately,
as
mere
also
indicated,
the
full
elimination
of
redevelopment
would
be
in
many
respects,
devastating
for
the
city
of
San
Bruno
for
its
future.
In
terms
of
the
opportunity
to
realize
the
potential
of
redevelopment,
particularly
in
our
downtown
area,
yeah
seller.
B
D
Other
question
I
had
was
the
management
analyst
I
believed
for
wastewater?
Would
that
be
an
individual,
be
the
full
time
employee
or
he
be
attached
to
this-
the
pertinent
CIP
projects
from
beginning
to
end
and
would
that
end
his
relationship
with
the
city?
Or
is
he
a
full-time
boy?
What's
the
situation
there?
The.
B
D
D
B
The
current
plan
is
for
that
position
to
be
made
a
full-time,
regular
staff
position
in
the
city's
workforce
and,
as
always,
they
should
needs
of
the
organization
change
and/or
the
opportunity,
the
ability
in
the
city
to
fund.
As
you
well
know,
we
we
look
at
that
on
a
on
a
regular
every
year
basis
and
would
make
those
adjustments
as
needed.
Ok,.
A
E
B
The
fire
hose
replacement
program
is
addressed,
I
believe
in
the
materials
that
was
that
were
provided
to
the
City
Council.
The
detailed
responses
to
the
various
questions
that
arose
during
this
study
session
I'm.
Sorry
to
say
that
the
fire
chief
is
not
here
tonight
and
I
can't
answer
that
question
directly.
B
At
this
moment,
Irene,
so
at
this
at
this
point,
if,
if
that
information
is
not
adequately
provided
in
the
materials
that
you
have
and
you'd
like
us
to,
the
City
Council
would
like
us
to
further
evaluate
that
issue.
We
can.
My
suggestion
would
be
that
we
bring
that
back
as
consideration
before
a
potential
budget
amendment
and
or
further
analysis
by
the
City
Council.
A
G
B
I'm
going
to
ask
the
public
services
director
to
provide
some
additional
information.
The
answer
to
your
question.
Irene
is
a
council
member,
O'connell
I'm.
Sorry,
the
answer
to
the
question
is
yes,
that
the
staff
work
effort
does
include
maintaining,
at
least
in
a
limited
awareness
of
the
actions
contemplated
or
being
taken
by
the
other
agencies
who
have
the
direct
responsibility.
B
The
comment
in
the
spreadsheet
was
intended
to
advise
the
City
Council,
given
your
interest
in
and
the
continuing
concern
about
the
need
for
potentially
additional
actions
of
either
being
considered
and
taken
by
the
city
and
or
in
partnership
with
the
Flood
Control
District
in
or
the
airport.
We
feel
that
it's
also
necessary
and
I
would
stress
also
necessary
to
cover
that
issue
in
greater
detail
on
a
prospective
basis
on
a
going-forward
basis
through
the
master
plan
update
process.
H
Honorable
mayor
councilmembers
good
evening,
I
would
just
add
a
additional
clarification
that
right
now,
through
our
stone,
existing
stoneware,
very
limited
staff,
is
a
ongoing
focus
and
is
a
allocated
resource
to
that
specific
issue.
But
it's
all
intent
through
the
development
and
the
outcome
of
the
master
plan
to
propose
to
you
and
to
offer
you
the
opportunity
to
further
consider
allocating
even
a
difference
for
additional
resources
to
that
specific
issue.
E
Share
real,
quick,
pretty
quick
I
wanted
just
to
thank
the
staff
for
bringing
forward
two
resolutions,
one
for
the
tentative
agreement
for
the
water
and
wastewater
I
think
this
is
an
important
topic
that
obviously,
we've
spent
a
lot
of
time
on
and
not
by
choice.
It
was
brought
on
to
us,
but
at
the
same
time
it's
important
for
us
and
I
think
as
we
embark
upon
reviewing
rate
increases
based
on
all
that's
gone
on.
E
We
need
to
have
a
thorough
understanding
and
an
appreciation
for
what's
in
the
budget
and
what's
going
on
within
departments
when
we
have
our
ratepayers
to
come
up
before
us
and
we
go
out
and
mail
out
the
question
asking
them
whether
their
concurrence
with
that
I
think
we
need
to
be
able
to
look
them
in
the
eye
and
be
able
to
say
positively
that
we've
gone
through
this
budget
and
that
this
is
what's
best
for
the
community.
So
I
appreciate
staff
doing
that
I.
E
Also
looking
forward
and
I'm
concerned
that,
as
of
tonight,
we
have
all
the
contracts
agreed
to
for
now
with
the
negotiations.
However,
those
will
not
last
long
and
we
will
be
back
at
the
table
again
and
I
think
the
city
needs
to
continue
to
go
forward,
engage
staff
and
continued
meetings
as
they've
had
in
the
past
of
where
we're
at
where
we're
going
with
the
future.
Hopefully
we
can
have
some
idea
of
what
it
holds.
I
mean
just
if
we
talk
about
furloughs
alone,
it
was
brought
up
in
the
study
session.
E
E
F
I
just
like
to
also
echo
what
councilman
Medina
said
and
thanks
staff
and
thank
I'm,
not
the
entire
staff
in
the
community
in
in
the
city,
for
what
they've
done
these
past
years
and
producing,
which
is
probably
the
best
budget
we've
seen
in
many
years.
Yes,
you've
outlined
some
of
the
the
downside
of
the
budget,
which
is
furlough
and
in
redevelopment
and
rising
retirement
costs,
but
it's
a
good
budget
and
we're
definitely
not
flourishing,
but
then
we're
not
just
surviving
either.
This
community
is
probably
can
be
described
more
as
resilient.
F
In
the
last
eight
years
of
reductions
and
poor
economy,
we
seem
to
get
things
done
still
and
the
ax
testament
is
to
people
like
the
the
two
that
we
honor
tonight
25
years
of
service.
We
have
a
great
staff
in
this
community
and
they've
put
up
with
a
lot
in
these
last.
Nearly
this
entire
decade
and
I
just
I'm,
proud
to
be
sitting
here
and
to
say
that
things
are
going
to
get
better
and
that,
yes,
the
concern
about
redevelopment.
F
A
We
take
action,
I
just
want
to
say
to
to
staff.
You
do
one
great
job,
it's
very
very
difficult,
especially
when
you're
dealing
with
a
moving
target
like
this
one
of
the
recipients.
Earlier
said
this
is
a
special
place.
It's
become
even
more
special
for
a
lot
of
people
over
this
last
year,
but
very
difficult
for
us
when
there
are
factors
out
there
that
we
have
no
control
over,
but
we
still
able
to
to
make
it
through
the
cooperation
of
our
of
our
employees
and
our
citizens,
so
good
job
we're
going
to
take
these
one.
A
At
a
time.
The
first
one
would
be
motion
approving
the
city,
manager's
recommendation,
excluding
for
the
general
fund,
special
revenue
funds
and
a
brush
funds,
excluding
water
and
wastewater,
or
someone
like
to
make
that
motion
some
of
second
motion.
Second,
to
approve
the
city,
manager's
recommended
2011-12
general
fund,
special
revenue,
funds
and
enterprise
funds
budgets,
excluding
at
this
time
water
and
wastewater
enterprise.
On
the
question,
all
those
in
favor
I
posed
with.
