ACCOUNTING SYSTEM & BUDGETARY CONTROL
Page 1-1
Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City are organized on the
basis of funds and account groups, each of which
is considered a separate accounting entity. The
operations of each fund are accounted for with a
separate set of self-balancing accounts that
comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity,
revenues, and expenditures or expenses, as
appropriate.
Government resources are allocated to and
accounted for in individual funds based upon the
purposes for which they are to be spent and the
means by which spending activities are controlled.
The various funds utilized by the City are grouped
into generic fund types and broad fund categories
as follows:
Governmental Funds:
General Fund- The General Fund is the general
operating fund of the City. It is used to account for
all financial resources except those required to be
accounted in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds- used to account for the
proceeds of specific revenue sources that are
legally restricted to expenditures for specified
purposes. Special Revenue Funds include the
sections label Special Revenue and Special
Assessments. The landscaping and lighting funds
are taken to City Council by separate resolution
and are adopted as a consolidated district budget.
However, the City reflects the individual zones in
separate departments and funds. This allows the
residents of the zones to see the exact detail of
their improvements and maintenance.
Debt Service Funds- used to account for the
accumulation of resources for, and the payment of,
general long-term debt principal, interest, and
related costs other than capitalized leases and
compensated absences which are paid from the
governmental funds. The City currently has eight
assessment districts (83-1, 84-1R, 87-1, 92-1, 94-1
- Bighorn, 94-2 - Sunterrace , 94-3 - Merano, 91-1
Indian Ridge Community Facility District) In
addition, several of the original bond issues have
been refunded into a Marks Roos Refunding Bond
issue.
Capital Projects Funds- used to account for
financial resources to be used for acquisition or
construction of major capital facilities (other than
those financed through proprietary funds). Capital
Project Funds for the City include Art in Public
Places, Capital Project Reserve fund, Streets fund,
Ordinance 416, Drainage Facilities, Park and
Recreation Facilities, Signalization, Buildings,
Museum, Library, Corporation Yard, YMCA
Building Fund, Interstate 10, Sports Complex
Fund, various assessment district funds and the
Redevelopment Agency project area funds.
Fiduciary Funds:
Trust and Agency Funds- used to account for
assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as
an agent for individual’s private organizations, and
other governments. Since activities recorded within
these funds are outside the control of the City
Council, these funds are not included within this
budget document.
Basis of Accounting
Basis of Accounting refers to the point at which
revenues and expenditures are recognized in the
accounts and reported in the financial statements.
All governmental funds, agency funds, and
expendable trust funds are accounted for using the
modified accrual basis of accounting. Their
revenues are recognized when they become
measurable and available as net current assets. All
proprietary funds and nonexpendable trust funds
are accounted for using the accrual basis of
accounting. Their revenues are recognized when
they are earned, and their expenses are
recognized when they are incurred.
Budgetary Basis of Accounting
Budgets for the governmental fund types are
adopted on a basis consistent with generally
accepted accounting principles, utilizing the
modified accrual basis of accounting. The
proprietary fund - Golf Course Fund is budgeted
utilizing available cash balance (cash basis). As a
result, this fund does not maintain a depreciation
reserve fund, no depreciation expenses (non cash
entry) are budgeted. The other proprietary fund is
the Office Complex which is budgeted on an
accrual basis of accounting and maintains a
depreciation reserve. Budgeted amounts are as
originally adopted and as further amended by City
Council action.
Budgetary Control
Budgetary controls are maintained to ensure
compliance with legal provisions embodied in the
annual appropriated budget approved by the City
Council. Activities of the governmental and
proprietary funds are included in the annual
appropriated budget. The budgetary level of
control, the level at which expenditures cannot
legally exceed the appropriated amount, is
exercised at the fund level.
ACCOUNTING SYSTEM & BUDGETARY CONTROL
Page 1-2
Appropriations Limit
Article XIIIB of the California State Constitution,
more commonly referred to as the Gann Initiative
or Gann Limit, was adopted by California voters in
1980 and placed limits on the amount of proceeds
of taxes that state and local governmental
agencies can receive and appropriate (authorize to
spend) each year.
The limit is different for each agency and the limit
changes each year. Each year’s limit is based on
the amount of tax proceeds that were authorized to
be spent in fiscal year 1978-79 in each agency,
modified for changes in inflation, population and
voter approved modifications in each subsequent
year.
Proposition 111 was passed by the State’s voters
in June 1990. This legislation made changes to the
manner in which the Appropriations Limit is be
calculated:
The annual adjustment factors for inflation
and population have been changed.
Instead of using the lesser of California per
capita income, or U.S. CPI, each city may
choose either the growth in the California
per capita income, or the growth in
non-residential assessed valuation due to
new construction within the City. For
population, instead of using only the
population growth of a city, each city may
choose to use the population growth within
its county. These are both annual
elections.
The revised annual adjustment factors will
be applied to the 1986-87 limit for most
cities and each year in between in order to
calculate the 1990-91 limit. The actual
limits for the intervening years, however,
are not affected.
Expenditures for “qualified capital outlay”,
which are fixed assets with a value of more
than $100,000 and an expected life of 10
years or more, will be excluded from the
limit.
A city which exceeds the limit in any one
year may choose to not give a tax refund if
they fall below the limit in the next fiscal
year. They then have two more years to
refund any remaining excess or to obtain a
successful override vote.
In certain situations, proceeds of taxes
may be spent on emergencies without
having to reduce the limit in future years.
Each city must now conduct a review of its
Appropriations Limit during its annual
financial audit.
The law now requires a governing body to annually
adopt, by resolution, an appropriations limit for the
following year, along with a recorded vote
regarding which of the annual adjustment factors
have been selected. The City’s next year budget
appropriations limit and annual adjustment factors
will be adopted by the City Council in June.
Proposition 218- Property Tax
Assessments
Article XIIIC and XIIID of the California State
Constitution, was adopted by California voters in
November 5, 1996 and placed restrictions on
assessments placed on the property tax roll.
The new restrictions requires that beginning July 1,
1997, all new and existing assessments (with
some exceptions) conform with new substantive
and procedural requirements. The major elements
of the substantive requirements include:
• The assessment method of spread must
be recalculated to ensure that all
properties receiving special benefit from
the services funded by the assessment are
included in the assessment calculation.
Properties owned by schools and other
governmental agencies-previously exempt
from some assessment charges-now must
be included in the spread calculation if
those properties receive benefit from the
improvements.
• Costs related to “general” benefit must be
specifically removed from the
assessments. Only costs related to
“special” benefit may be assessed.
• Finally, assessments must be spread to
each parcel proportional to the aggregate
district(or zone) assessment.
• Assessments used exclusively to fund
sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood
control, drainage systems, or vector
control are exempt. Assessments
approved by all the property owners at the
time the assessment was created are
exempt. Assessments used exclusively for
bond repayments are exempt.
Assessments previously approved by a
majority of voters is exempt.
In July 1997 the voters approved all special
assessment. April 2003, the Business
Improvement District was approved by the
President’s Plaza Business/Property Owners.
Since then, the City Council is recommending all
future districts become Homeowner Associations.

CITY MANAGER’S EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FY 2014-2015
It is a pleasure to present to the citizens of Palm Desert, members of the City Council, and
other interested readers the adopted FY 2014-15 operating budget for the City of Palm
Desert, California. During Fiscal Year 2013‐14 we addressed some significant challenges,
as we continue to work towards Palm Desert’s vision as a vibrant community where
families live, work, and play.
Our collective efforts to remain fiscally prudent resulted in a sound and balanced budget,
without utilizing any of the approximately $62 million in City reserve funds. The economic
downturn being experienced nationally, and here locally in Palm Desert, does impact our
budget. However, continual budget monitoring and flexibility in making revisions when
necessary, paved the way for a fiscal year 2014‐2015 budget absent any significant
cutbacks in city services. The current budget was formed on three core principles:
1) Minimize the impact of budget cuts to key services and maintain the level of service
expected by residents, businesses, and visitors;
2) Minimize the number of tax and fee adjustments required to maintain existing
service levels; and
3) Review standards of infrastructure maintenance and operation and adjust standards
to provide quality of City facilities in line with budget considerations, including but
not limited to parks, roads, and buildings. Review staffing levels to coincide with
established standards.
The balanced budget presented to you carefully weighed all three principles in its
development. The budget for all funds is $124,608,413 including a General Fund
operational budget of 48,250,546. This amount represents an overall budgetary increase
of 20% and a General Fund operational increase of 3.7% from the adopted FY 2014-15
operating budget, respectively.
GENERAL FUND
This year’s budget continues the commitment to keep City operations lean and allocate
funds to the City’s highest priorities: public safety, economic development, completion of
capital projects, and maintenance of the City’s neighborhoods, parks and roadways.
Revenues
Anticipated revenue impacts relating to a downturn in real estate transactions, a drop in
property tax values, increase in hotel room bookings, and an increase in retail sales are
being experienced, which affects Palm Desert’s top three revenue streams.
The City’s General Fund is projecting estimated revenues of $48,250,546, which translates
to a $2,155,000 increase (4.6%) over the prior fiscal year amount of $46,517,500. The
table below illustrates the combined increase/decrease in estimated revenues within some
of the City’s significant revenue sources. The only significant revenue increase is the
Transient Occupancy Tax revenue which reflects current year estimated to be $500,000

Expenditures
As the City of Palm Desert prepares for the next fiscal year, we do so under the realization
of the current economic condition. Departments were asked to continue participating in a
zero-based budgeting approach.
Palm Desert’s total proposed operational expenses for FY 2014-2015 amount to

Major Category changes
As indicated above, the City’s General Fund expenditures are projected to increase by
$1,741,852 or 3.7%.
Personnel Service and Benefits increase 1.0% due to higher retirement premium
requested by State Public Employees Retirement System.
Other Services and Charges increased by $1,601,770 or 5.8%. This amount included the
increase in the Police budget.
Transfers to Other Funds increased by $358,766 due to transfer of General Fund reserves
to cover next year increase in Fire Department budget.
Fire & Police Services
The City of Palm Desert provides a high quality level of public safety services via contract
with the County of Riverside. The total Palm Desert Police and Fire Department’s budget
account for approximately fifty percent (50%) of operational expenses.
The City’s contract with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department for police services,
represents the majority of the cost in Other Services, Charges, & Transfers expenditures.
The current year Sheriff’s Department contract includes the following services: (1) patrol
services; (2) booking fees; (3) facility charges; (4) vehicle mileage; (5) dispatching
services; (6) supplies; (7) contingency funding; (8) special teams enforcement, and (9) the
Cal ID Statewide Fingerprinting Identification System. The total General Fund cost of the
Sheriff’s Department contract is approximately $18.6 million or a 7.3% increase from FY
2013-14. This amount represents 38% of General Fund budgeted expenditures.
Riverside County Sheriff Department.
The proposed Fire Department budget has increased by 8.9% due to adding additional
personnel. Fire Services include: (1) firefighters; (2) paramedics; (3) fire inspectors; (4)
hazardous materials response; (5) vehicle and building maintenance; and (6)
commercial/housing building plan review.
The total FY 2014-15 Fire Services budget is $10,760 million. The existing Fire Fund
reserves have been depleted in Fiscal Year 2011-12, therefore, the General Fund is
transferring $2.0 million to cover the budgeted expenditure over the revenue collected in
Fiscal Year 2014-15.
CONCLUSION
The current recessionary environment will likely continue through the remainder of this
new fiscal year. As a result, staff anticipates economic conditions may likely reflect
decreasing revenues in property tax and other economically sensitive revenues. However,
we are optimistic that sales and transient occupancy taxes will continue to show modest
growth. Faced with such uncertainty, the City will continue its policy of maintaining a
reserve fund equal to operational expenditures.
Staff is cognizant that the budget process is dynamic and anticipates ongoing economic
issues, coupled with State legislative action, which will require monitoring as we progress

through the fiscal year. Whatever future action the City may take in regards to its budget,
it remains committed to fiscal responsibility, coupled with effective resource management,
to provide the highest level of public services.
While our current budget posed challenges for us, we are fortunate to be more fiscally
sound than most other local governments across the state and nation. Our current
economic vitality is not only due in part to the structure of city revenues, but is also
attributable to the fiscally conservative policies and practices of the City Council.
I would like to thank the Mayor and City Council for their continued direction and input
toward the preparation of this budget. I wish to also extend my personal gratitude to all
Palm Desert employees for their dedication towards minimizing costs and maintaining the
level of public service and quality of life on which Palm Desert prides itself.

APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT CALCULATION
Article XIII B of the California Constitution requires adoption of an annual appropriation limit. The original base
year limit was adopted in FY 1978-79 and has been adjusted annually for increase by a factor comprised of the
percentage change in population combined with either the percentage change in California per capita personal
income or the percentage change in local assessment roll due to the addition of local nonresidential new
construction. The changes in the local assessment roll due to additional local nonresidential new construction for
current and prior periods have not been available from the County Assessor's office.
On November 1988, voters approved Proposition R which increased the limit to $25,000,000. It expired in
November 1992. The FY 1993-94 limit was calculated with prior years re-calculated to reflect the expiration of the
$25,000,000 limit.

Revenue Assumptions for the General Fund (Fiscal Year 2014-2015)
Fiscal Year 14-15 revenue projections are based on current state and local economic conditions and historical
trends. The State continues to have a budget deficit. The following is a summary of the major changes to
General Fund revenues.
Enacted in 1933 by the State Legislature, the sales tax is applied when retailers sell tangible personal property.
This tax is measured by gross receipts from retail sales at a rate of 8.75%. The total tax rate is made up of the
basic statewide sales tax of 8.50 percent plus a 0.50% special district tax for the Riverside County
Transportation Commission. The statewide tax of 9.0% includes the following components: 7.5% state tax;
0.50% for the Local Public Safety Fund (enacted 1/1/94); and 1.0% city and county allocation (.25% Triple
Flip). Next year’s estimate is up due to general retail store growth.

City of Palm Desert Revenue Summary
Transient Occupancy Tax
This tax is imposed on individuals for the privilege of occupancy in any hotel or motel within the City. Each
occupant is subject to a 9 percent (June 1992-revised rate and approved by voters in November 2004) transient
occupancy tax which is added to the occupant’s room bill. All hotel and motel operators are required to remit this
tax to the City on a monthly basis.
The main collectors of the tax are the Desert Springs Marriott, Embassy Suites Hotel, Travelers Inn, Holiday Inn
Express, Shadow Mountain Resort, Sunrise Development Condos, Marriott and Intrawest timeshare units,
Courtyard and Residence Inn, Best Western, Palm Desert Lodge, International Lodge and the newest hotel
Hampton Inn. The projection for 2014-15 is based on a 2% increase for Desert Springs Convention business
and non-convention business.
Property Taxes
In November 1978, the voters approved Proposition 13, which allocated property tax revenues based on each
agency’s historical share, cities which never levied a property tax rate before Proposition 13 did not share in
the resulting revenues (property tax rates were rolled back to 1973 rates). The City of Palm Desert is a No-
Low Property Tax city and receives property taxes only on areas annexed to the City after 1978. The County
of Riverside and the City of Palm Desert have agreed to exchange property taxes upon annexations into the
City at a rate of 7 percent of the County’s share of the annexed property tax revenue.
Three county agencies are involved in the administration of the property tax: the County Assessor, the
Auditor-Controller, and the Tax Collector. Property is valued by the County Assessor and taxed at 1 percent
of assessed value. Increases in property taxes are based on property changing ownership, new construction
and a 2 percent maximum increase in assessments. After taxes are received by the County, the Auditor-
Controller apportions to participating agencies its share of the tax less 1/4 of 1 percent for tax collection costs.

City of Palm Desert Revenue Summary
Interest Earnings
The current fiscal year 2013-14 has had a steady Federal Funds Rate. The interest rate projection for 2014-15 is
calculated at a conservative average yearly yield of 0.25 percent and that no major usage of the existing surplus
funds will be used in the 2014-15.
Motor Vehicle License Fee
The Motor Vehicle License Fee (VLF or DMV Fees) is a tax on ownership of a registered vehicle. The tax rate
was 2% of the value of a vehicle paid by owners to the Department of Motor Vehicle; however, the State has
lowered the rate to 0.65%. In addition to revenues from the 0.65% rate, cities and counties will receive additional
property tax equal to the difference between revenues from the VLF at the 2% rate and the 0.65% rate charged by
the State. Starting in 2006-07, the increase for VLF will be based on each city and county growth in gross
assessed valuation in the prior year, instead of the increase in vehicle value. Values were flat for 2014-2015
due to the slowdown of property values. State started charging administration to DMV fees.

Program Narrative:
This represents transfers to other funds for the purpose of covering expenditures. The General
Fund will be transferring funds to the County Library to cover the difference in cost between
taxes collected less the State's Education transfer. In addition, the Prop. A Fire Tax
fund will require a transfer to meet the fund's shortfall of revenue versus expenditure.
In past years, the General Fund has transferred funds to the Year 2000 plan to accumulate funds
for various capital project plans.

PROPOSED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMS and
EXISTING PROGRAMS
The Capital Improvement Program is a listing of proposed and existing projects
for the acquisition and construction of general government resources and
intergovernmental grants and reimbursements. These programs are outlined
in the proposed five-year capital budget and the existing capital projects. The
final approval of each project by Council/Board is based on recommendations
by staff after the project has been through a thorough review and approval
process by the appropriate committees and/or commission to ensure that
concerns of all parties, including the public, affected by the project have been
addressed.
This section includes:
Listing of the Proposed Five-Year Capital Improvement Program including Continuing
Appropriations starting in Fiscal Year 2014-2015 to 2018-2019
Continuing appropriations are amounts which have been
appropriated in Fiscal Year 2013-14 and are not expected to be
expended by June 30, 2014. This applies primarily for capital
improvement program budgets and specific programs that overlap
fiscal years. When authorized, continuing appropriation totals are
added to the new fiscal year budget totals in order to track all
approved spending.
The exact amount of appropriations for carryovers for each program
will be determined at the end of the fiscal year during the preparation
of the financial statements. Totals will include appropriations for
1) purchase orders and contracts encumbered totals and
2) unencumbered balances as of June 30, 2014

PALM DESERT HOUSING AUTHORITY
Overview – Prior to dissolution, the Redevelopment Agency allocated 20%
of an all tax increment received to provide low and moderate-income housing
throughout the city. Housing Authority no longer receives tax increment other than
existing bonded debt service.
Housing Administration includes only those costs associated with administration of
the housing authority assets. The Palm Desert Housing Authority owns and
operates over 1100 rental units previously owned by the Redevelopment Agency.
Operations include day to day maintenance, leasing and vacancy turnover.
For Housing Authority units acquired, developed, rehabilitated, or otherwise
assisted, which are required to be available to and occupied by persons and families
whose income is between 20 percent and 65 percent of the area median income.
