San Bruno City Council Meeting February 24, 2015
10a. Quarterly Financial Report
B
Overall,
general
fund
revenues
are
on
track
at
51
percent
of
budget.
This
is
approximately
two
million
dollars
more
than
the
prior
year,
just
to
talk
about
a
couple
of
the
key
revenues
and
property
taxes
up
35%
or
approximately
1
million
dollars
compared
to
the
prior
year,
and
part
of
this
is
because
we
received
the
redistribution
of
the
redevelopment
tax
increment
funds
earlier
this
year
than
we
did
last
year.
B
One
area
that
just
another
area
that
I
want
to
watch
is
that
business
tax
revenues
are
up
approximately
ninety
seven
thousand
dollars.
However,
if
you
look
at
the
budget,
we
have
3.2
budgeted
in
1415.
We
had
2.3
budgeted
last
year,
we
were
at
ninety-seven
percent
in
the
prior
year
and
now
we're
at
seventy-four
percent.
So
this
is
a
twenty-three
percent
drop
and
profit
business.
Taxes
are
received
majority
up
front.
We
have
the
airport
tax.
That's
also
included
in
that.
B
So
I
will
continue
to
monitor
this
and
see
do
some
research
and
see
if
maybe
we
over
budgeted
or
if
something
were
anticipating
something
coming
in
that
I'm
not
aware
of
general
fund
expenditures.
Overall,
we're
doing
very
well
we're
at
forty-nine
percent
of
budget
right
where
you
want
to
be
so,
it
is
951
thousand
more
than
last
year,
but
that
was
reflected
in
the
budget
on
to
the
enterprise
and
internal
service
funds.
B
Cable
television
actual
revenues
are
lower
by
48,000.
However,
the
budget
did
reflect
this.
We
didn't
decrease
the
budget
in
the
prior
year
or
in
this
year,
and
out
revenues
are
still
outpacing
expenditures,
so
it
seems
to
be
at
least
self-sufficient
self-insurance
fund.
This
fund
is
over
the
fifty
percent
mark
at
sixty-five
percent.
However,
the
expenditure
totals
are
206,000
less
than
the
prior
year,
and
this
is
due
to
a
significant
decrease
in
claims.
B
The
budget
is
reviewed
to
determine
if
any
adjustments
should
be
included
in
this
report,
and
we
do
have
some
we're
asking
for
an
additional
increase
in
revenue
for
70
of
75,000
dollars
and
an
increase
in
expenditures
in
the
rec
50,000
in
the
recreation
department.
And
this
is
due
to
the
addition
of
the
first
and
second
grades
at
portola
and
john,
your
elementary
schools
in
the
city's
after-school
adventure
programs
in
the
library
we're
asking
for
an
increase
of
twelve
thousand
dollars
in
appropriation.
And
this
is
due
to
the
peninsula
library
systems.
B
Increased
costs
for
both
shared
and
bandwidth
costs
and
the
parts
maintenance
staff
is
proposing.
An
appropriation
of
45
thousand
dollars
to
address
open
space
areas
to
mitigate
ongoing
fire
hazards.
This
appropriation
was
previously
included
in
the
CIP
budget,
but
we
believe
that
it's
more
accurate
to
reflect
it
in
the
city's
operating
budget.
B
A
C
B
D
Good
evening,
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council,
is
you
know,
through
the
peninsula
library
system,
there's
a
wide
array
of
services
that
we
benefit
from
that
are
actually
delivered
by
them
and
they've
incurred
additional
costs
associated
with
our
internet
based
public
use,
computer
system,
and
so
those
are
expenses
that
they
Pat
they
host
the
servers.
They
troubleshoot
all
the
issues
that
exist
and
they
provide
the
hardware,
so
the
cost
associated
with
that
actually
increased
for
the
fiscal
14
15
budget,
but
I
didn't
become
aware
of
it.
D
C
C
Okay,
I'm
not
sure
that
makes
sense
to
me,
but
okay,
thank
you
for
we're,
trying
to
explain
that.
Maybe
I
can
dig
in
a
little
deeper
later
regarding
parks
and
maintenance.
There's
not
a
lot
of
detail
around
here.
There's
a
comment
in
here
that
the
list
of
areas
requiring
annual
attention
continues
to
grow.
So
does
that
mean
that
the
number
of
areas
that
we
service
is
increasing
or
just
that
the
areas
that
we've
always
serviced
now
require
more
attention?
I.
E
Think
this
is
really
a
reference
and
I'll
ask
the
community
services
director
to
actually
stand
by
in
case
this
is
an
item
as
the
finance
director
indicated
that
is
has
in
recent
years
it.
Unfortunately,
it's
bounced
around
a
little
bit
between
the
operating
budget
and
the
capital
budget
and
was
not
included
in
the
capital
budget
and
is
also
not
included
in
the
operating
budget.
This
year.
E
I
think
the
increase
refers
to
the
fact
that
the
amount
that
has
been
budgeted
in
the
recent
couple
of
previous
years
is
30,000,
and
so
the
45,000
represents
a
modest,
I
would
say,
increase
in
the
amount
of
territory
that
would
be
attended
to
in
a
normal
annual
program
to
abate
fire
hazards
and
in
particular
tree
hazards.
The
this
is
an
issue
that
really
does
in
does
require
additional
attention.
E
Estimates
of
the
annual
need
that
the
fire
department
and
the
parks
division
have
identified
run
to
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
annually,
plus
so
there's
both
a
resource
financial
resource,
as
well
as
a
human
resource
or
capacity
to
perform
the
work
effort.
That
really
is
otherwise
indicated.
So
the
fact
that
it
appears
tonight
and
that
the
increase
is
represented
as
a
talking
point,
really
relates
to
the
comparison
to
the
thirty
thousand
dollars
that
has
recently
historically
been
budgeted.
Okay,.
C
It
sounds
to
me
like
it's
a
bit
of
a
band-aid
fix
and
it's
a
bigger
problem.
I,
don't
think
we're
really,
but
from
what
we're
seeing
here,
we
don't
really
see
what
the
areas
are
that
we're
talking
about.
We
can't
really
understand
if
you're,
addressing
all
of
the
areas
that
we're
aware
of,
we
don't
have
an
opportunity
to
look
at
those
areas
and
understand
what
what
the
real
impact
is.
C
I
know
that
there
was
some
funding
that
was
discussed
to
address
tree
issues
in
the
glenview
area,
that's
being
funded
separately,
correct,
so
about
understanding
sort
of
comprehensively.
What
we're
addressing
with
this
money
and
I
know
it's
not
it's
not
a
lot
of
money,
but
it
does
seem
like
something
that
does
deserve
probably
more
attention
and
maybe
a
little
bit
more
analysis
than
than
what
we're
seeing
here.
I.
E
E
Staffed
agrees
with
you
about
that,
and
we
would
certainly
be
prepared
to
provide
that
to
you
at
least
as
soon
as
the
upcoming
budget
deliberations
for
fiscal
year
1516,
which
are
coming
up
later
this
spring.
But
it's
a
it's
a
topic
that
warrants
I
would
say
more
attention,
as
you
indicate
than
it
has
historically
received.
E
The
in
terms
of
the
material
that's
presented
to
you
tonight
is
sort
of
deliberately
abbreviated,
because
this
is
a
topic
that
has
shown
in
our
when
one
place
or
another
in
our
budget
historically,
and
we
are
simply
continuing
a
comparable
level
of
effort.
But
it
is
a
topic
that
we
would
certainly
welcome
the
opportunity
to
dive
into
a
little
bit
more
detail
with
the
City
Council
and
and
give
you
a
more
comprehensive
and
realistic
picture
of
what
it
might
take
to
address.
The
many
areas
of
open
space
forested
area
in
our
community.
C
I
also
had
a
question
about
the
the
funds
that
are
being
allocated
for
the
the
transit
corridor
plan,
because
again,
I
got
the
impression
here
that
we're
talking
about
a
lot
of
little
programs,
but
no
there's
no
real
sort
of
a
real
plan.
I
mean
what
are
we
trying
to
accomplish
within
the
next
year
within
the
next
five
years
over
the
next
ten
years
and
I
mean
some
of
the
things
that
are
mentioned.
Facade
improvement,
for
example,
could
be
a
very
short
term,
a
very
successful
short-term
program.
C
But
if,
within
three
years,
we're
talking
about
replacing
a
bunch
of
buildings
and
replacing
the
facades
is
not
a
good
idea.
So
again,
this
is
something
where,
rather
than
just
say,
okay
we're
going
to
do
some
things
and
then
kind
of
go
forward
with
it
and
throw
a
little
bit
of
money
at
it.
I'd
like
to
see
more
of
a
well-developed
plan.
That
kind
of
helped
me
feel
good
about
spending
a
hundred
thousand
this
year
and
knowing
that
that's
going
to
give
us
some
some
incremental
benefit
in
in
the
coming
year.
C
E
Let
me
give
you
a
preliminary
responses
again.
I
agree
that
this
is
a
topic
that
staff
is
working
on
a
having
having
achieved
the
first
step
in
implementation
of
our
transit
corridor
plan,
with
the
successful
ballot
measure
on
the
November
ballot
were
related
to
development
standards.
We
are
actively
and
busily
in
the
process
of
developing
a
proposed
work
program
to
support
a
more
comprehensive
implementation
of
the
transit
corridor
plan
and
the
vision
for
the
downtown
this
essentially
carry
forward
amount
is
actually
intended
as
a
fairly
preliminary
level
of
activity
associated
with.
E
Frankly,
some
of
the
work
that's
already
been
performed
associated
with
economic
analysis
relative
to
the
development
standards
that
were
part
of
the
city's,
not
the
campaign,
but
the
city's
work
effort
associated
with
the
change
in
the
development
standards
that
has
recently
been
accomplished.
I
recently
became
aware
that
this
funding
source
had
not
been
carried
forward,
and
so
this
this
is
the
reason
that
this
is
being
brought
forward
to
tonight.
E
F
Alright,
if
I
can
chime
in
on
the
look
yeah
good
Oh
before
it
does
and
and
I
I
got
charged
up
when
I
saw
a
future
economic
development
and
even
six
figures
is
aden
and
then
seeing
a
list
of
items
under
it
and
I
could
figure
out
more.
That's
just
an
allowance.
It's
not
really
going
to
take
care
of
all
those
programs,
but
I,
don't
I
mean
I,
know
what
I
think.
We
all
know
what
staff
is
doing.
F
As
far
as
you
know,
zoning
ordinance
changes
and
you
know
whole
slew
of
things,
but
I
don't
want
the
victory
of
measure
and
to
go
too
far
into
2015
without
letting
the
greater
public
know
what
our
plan
is,
and
maybe
you
know
yes,
we
do
need
to
discuss
it
more,
but
I
get
questions
now.
But
so
what
is
gonna
happen
about?
You
know
the
transit
quarters
plan
do
do
developers
know
you
know
the
opportunities
here
and
how
do
we
do
that?
You
know,
and
is
you
know?
Maybe
that's
not
staffs.
F
E
A
G
G
So,
needless
to
say,
I've
asked
in
the
past
that
we
may
be
kind
of
assess,
and
how
is
that
assess,
and
how
often
is
that
assess
grand
we're,
not
gonna
have
probably
enough
money
to
go
to
where
it
needs
to
go,
but
I
would
like
to
have
also
an
understanding
for
me
sitting
on
the
council
when
I'm
asked,
how
is
this
developed?
How
is
it
analyzed?
G
How
often
is
it
as
far
as
the
the
funding
for
future
economic
development
I
know
that
was
budgeted,
but
not
spent
there
for
being
asked
to
be
carried
over,
as
other
items
have
been
and
are
in
the
budget?
So
do
we
have
a
timeline
of
that
and
I'd
like
to
see
some
type
of
measurable
items
than
and
how
are
we
going
to
measure
their
success
and
what
is
our
strategy
going
forward?
So
I'd
like
to
see
that
come
forward
to
with
those
type
of
costs
and
expenditures,
you
know.
C
The
chair
before
my
hot,
before
we
introduce
I,
just
want
to
make
a
comment.
I
I
know,
I
had
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
detailed
questions
on
this
and
I
apologize
to
staff
for
not
submitting
any
questions
in
advance.
I
try
to
get
those
done,
but
didn't
have
a
whole
lot
of
time
to
go
through
this
this
weekend.
So
I
do
apologize
for
that,
but
I
just
want
to
say
you
know.
I
do
appreciate
the
effort
that
did
go
into
this
report,
but
I
think
without
additional
details.
