STAFF REPORT
CITY OF PALM DESERT
FINANCE PARTMENT
MEETING DATE: October 12, 2017
REQUEST: Adopt Resolution No. 2017- 71 authorizing Fiscal Year 2016-
2017 final budget adjustments to revenue and expenditures and
authorize certain related expenditures for Fiscal Year 2017-2018
Recommendation
By Minute Motion, that the City Council:
1. Waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. 2017- 71
authorizing the Fiscal Year 2016-2017 final year-end budget
adjustments to revenue and expenditures; and
2. Authorize and appropriate an additional payment to CaIPERS in an
amount up to $1,700,000 for Fiscal Year 2017-2018 to reduce the
City's unfunded liability.
Strategic Plan
While not specific to a specific Strategic Plan Objective, it is a primary goal of the City
Council to strive for accountability, financial stability, and economic consistency.
Background Analysis
As part of the closing of the financial records for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017,
adjustments will be necessary to both revenue and expenditures based on the actual
amounts. In some cases this includes transferring monies to or from the General Fund
as noted.
The most notable change in revenue is due to an increase in Transient Occupancy Tax
(TOT) collected of slightly over $2 million. The increase includes TOT received for hotel
stays for the festival in October, the online platform AirBnb, the increase in the TOT
rate, as well as from an overall increase in rental rates during the year (including the
spring festivals).
Other changes in revenue include increases to property taxes, interest income, and
vehicle impact fees totaling $943,000 and a decrease in sales tax of ($290,000).

The additional property tax received is from the dissolution of redevelopment from the
amount available after all debts of the former agency are paid as well as sales of the
former agency's real property. Sales of former agency real properties provide a one-
time increase in revenue that will not be included in future revenue estimates.
The increase in vehicle impact fee revenue is based on the amended franchise
agreement with Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services. The fee, approved in July of
2016, will offset the City's road maintenance costs for the impact of Burrtec's waste
hauling vehicles on the City's streets.
The adjustments to the General Fund appropriations include reallocations as well as
increases for year-end adjustments and are itemized in Exhibit A attached to the
resolution. The reallocations include decreases to public safety, marketing, economic
development and public works and increases to departments for legal advertising,
contract increases due to minimum wage, utility/water costs, and park expenses.
The adjustments to other funds include transfers for bond-related expenditures (debt
payments and capital projects funded by bonds), the annual payment for Other Post-
Employment Benefits (OPEB), compensated accrual balance adjustments and the
retiree health stipends transfer. The reallocations are based on actual and approved
expenditures in the departments.
The other significant transfers requested are to replenish the equipment replacement
fund and the building maintenance fund for approved projects. These include the 5-
year IT Master Plan and building maintenance reserves for projects including
improvements at City Hall (main lobby) and the Civic Center (signage).
Lastly, during the last fiscal year (2016-17), CaIPERS reduced the discount rate on their
investments from 7.5% to 7.375%. This has resulted in a decrease to the percent the
City's pension liability is funded from 68.9% to 66.2%. CaIPERS has indicated that over
the next two years, the rate will be lowered even further from 7.375% to 7%. In
anticipation of the increase in annual contributions for the next two years, staff is
recommending that an additional payment be made during the fiscal year 2017-18 in an
amount up to $1,700,000.
Fiscal Analysis
The adjustments detailed in the attachment to the resolution result in an overall increase
in revenue to the General Fund of $2,701,000. The net effect of the reallocation of
General Fund appropriations is an overall increase of $1,350,574 which includes
transfers out to other funds for the annual adjustments noted above. The adjustments to
other funds are covered by those respective fund balances. Staff is requesting an

additional payment to CaIPERS once the financial records are finalized.
