Public Safety Service Demands 6 Maintaining 911 emergency medical, police and fire response services, in light of growing demands, has placed increased pressure on first responders and County services.

SantaBarbaraCA.gov Infrastructure Demands 10 11 Wind and Storm Damage Current Estimates of $5,550,000 in Clean Up Costs Alone for August 2023 Weather Events What is our City’s budget? 12 SantaBarbaraCA.gov What is our City’s Budget? 13 The City’s overall budget includes many governmental funds, including the General Fund. Most of these funds are restricted for specific purposes. The General Fund is the City’s primary fund for operations and has this year had projected revenues of $75,554,467 and estimated expenditures of $75,353,985 resulting in an estimated surplus of $200,482. Recent emergency/weather events have impacted these estimates, with current projections of over $4.6 Million in additional costs for storm cleanups. Revenues increased by approximately $4M (6%) over the prior year, based on a rise in business activity post pandemic, upticks in travel activity, retail sales and inflation, & regional events. The City has established strong reserves over many years to ensure the delivery of services during an emergency. SantaBarbaraCA.gov How City Revenues Are Invested 14 Overall, spending on public safety accounts for roughly 35% of overall General Fund expenditures and Palm Desert is ranked as one of the safest cities in southern California. SantaBarbaraCA.gov Reserves 15 The City Currently has Approximately $100M in various reserve accounts. Many of these are set by policy, e.g. a required 25% of the General Fund, plus an additional 20% for Emergencies. Just $13M is “Unassigned”. Current estimates project the total available reserves to fall to $37M by 2027. What has the City Done to Manage its Budget? The City has been able to control and reduce costs by; ●Freezing positions ●Seeking grant opportunities for capital replacement and projects ●Deferring and extending capital replacement and maintenance ●Renegotiating contracts wherever possible 16 How is the City funded? 17 In Palm Desert, the largest sources of revenue for the General Fund are roughly; ●35% by Sales Tax, ●2 8% b y Hote l (TO T) taxe s ●12% by Property Tax ●25% Other Revenues How is the City funded? 18 Sales Taxes, 35.2% TOT (Hotel) Tax, 27.8% Property Tax, 11.6% Franchises, 4.2% Licenses/Fees/ Permits 6.1% All Other, 15.1% SantaBabaraCA.gov What is the City’s fiscal outlook? While the financial outlook of the City is sound for the upcoming fiscal year,there are several trends that could adverselyimpact the City’s finances in subsequentyears and will require prudent decision-making to maintain the current service levels. ●In terms of revenues,the level of revenue growth experienced in recent years is not likely to continue,as increases were largely fueled by the one -time federal stimulus funding and business-friendly fiscal policies during and post pandemic. ●The City’s expenditures are projected to increase at a faster rate than the revenue growth in coming years .Projections indicate a deficit of as much as $16 million within five years,driven in large part by rising public safety costs . 19 SantaBabaraCA.gov What is the City’s fiscal outlook? 20 Projected Revenues/Expenditures 21 Rising costs for Public Safety and Emergency Medical Response are already straining th City’s budget, and the City is growing in terms of both residents and the need for services. With the dissolution of Redevelopment Agencies in California, the City continues to absorb substantial deferred maintenance, in addition to the operating costs of the new Fire Station. The lack of available resources and increasing operating costs will present challenges in the City’s ability to maintain services. To ensure long-term fiscal sustainability, staff has begun developing strategies to identify on-going efficiencies, cost savings and potentially new revenue options. Fiscal Challenges 22 The City is considering a 1 cent sales tax increase ballot measure, to preserve funding for services including: •Maintaining 911 emergency medical, police/ crime prevention and fire response services •Keeping public areas safe and clean •Maintaining parks and recreation programs •Addressing homelessness •And other services and infrastructure maintained by the General Fund Potential Revenue Measure 23 There is a Limit on How High Sales Tax Can Rise: 9.75% Key Fact 24 Palm Desert has one of the lowest Sales Tax rates in Coachella Valley.
