City of Half Moon Bay Fiscal Year 2017/18

Second Quarter Financial Report

P a g e 1 | 2

OVERVIEW

This report summarizes the City’s overall financial position for the fiscal year through December 31, 2017. The focus of this report is the City’s General Fund, and is not meant to be inclusive of all finance and accounting transactions. The intent is to provide the Council and the public with an overview of the state of the City’s general fiscal condition. The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City and is used to account for most operating activities. The revenue projections and budgets include necessary adjustments for encumbrances, carryovers, and any supplemental appropriations made by the City Council as of December 31, 2017.

GENERAL FUND

General Fund Financial Condition. With half of the year complete, General Fund expenditures are at 32.0% (vs. 53.2% in the prior year) of projections and revenues are at 41.0% (vs. 42.4%). These figures exclude budgeted once-a-year operating and capital transfers. The expenditure variance from the prior year is primarily due to the exclusion of encumbrances of various large professional service contracts. Beginning with the First Quarter Fiscal Year 2017-18 report, the encumbered but unexpended amounts have been excluded for greater clarity. Both expenditures and revenues are explained in more detail below.

General Fund Budget YTD Actual Percent

Revenues $16,147,673 $6,617,850 41.0%

Expenditures $17,073,339 $5,460,795 32.0% *excludes operating and capital transfers

The General Fund balance as of December 31, 2017 is $12.2 million. This is based on the audited fund balance as of the end of fiscal year 2016-17 and factoring in year-to-date expenditure and revenue activity.

Expenditures. Departmental operating expenditures (including outstanding purchase orders/encumbrances) are generally on target as of the end of the first quarter. The following chart

summarizes year-to-date combined expenditures and encumbrances by department:

City Council 408,542 142,409 34.9%

City Manager 1,047,375 404,163 38.6%

City Attorney 371,300 207,401 55.9%

City Clerk 589,928 198,122 33.6%

Finance and Risk Management 940,747 371,913 39.5%

Total General Fund 17,073,340 5,460,795 32.0%

Budget YTD Actual % Exp/EncGeneral Fund Expenditures by

Department

*excludes operating and capital transfers

Human Resources and Administrative Services expenditures are slightly elevated due to prepayment to the County for the Coastside District Emergency Coordinator services for the entire fiscal year. City Attorney expenditures are higher than and will be addressed during the mid-year budget review process.

Revenues. The following is a summary of revenues as of the end of the first quarter:

Trans. Occupancy Taxes 6,289,000 2,541,505 40.4%

Property Tax 3,062,800 1,567,767 51.2%

Sales & Use Tax 2,614,222 1,033,729 39.5%

Other Revenue 1,714,151 615,890 35.9%

Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT). TOT continues to be the largest source of revenue for the City. The City has contracted with an external consultant to assist in tracking and collecting TOT revenues.

City of Half Moon Bay Fiscal Year 2017/18

Second Quarter Financial Report

P a g e 2 | 2

Since TOT is remitted approximately 30 days after the end of each month, second quarter numbers reflected only four months (July through October) of TOT receipts. Therefore, TOT revenues are performing stronger than projected with a collection percentage of 40.4% over the course of only one third of fiscal year, in part due to the City’s efforts in collecting taxes from short-term rentals.

Property Tax. Property Tax is the City’s second largest revenue source. The first major apportionment of property taxes was received in December and the City has received close to the expected amounts in this category.

Sales and Use Tax. Sales and Use Tax is the City’s third largest revenue source. As of September 30, 2017, the City has received about 39.5% of our budgeted Sales Tax revenues as of the end of the second quarter. Sales taxes are generally paid one month in arrears and therefore the full six months of sales tax has not yet been received as of December 31, 2017. Based on discussions with the City’s sales tax advisor, the local sales activities remain strong and we expect to exceed the budgeted sales tax revenue target.

Other Revenues. The main components of this category are Golf Fees, County Credit Reimbursements, and the cost allocation transfer from the sewer fund. The golf fees are received as part of a redevelopment agreement with Ocean Colony Partners, L.P. and are calculated as a percentage of green fees from the golf courses. Golf fees and the County Credit reimbursements have been received and credited. The sewer cost allocation transfer will be recorded at the end of the fiscal year. Overall, this revenue category is approximately at the expected level at this point of the fiscal year.

Other Taxes. This includes Franchise Tax and Business License Tax. We will not receive the largest component of franchise fees revenue payments from PG&E until April 2018. Franchise fees from other utilities are remitted approximately 30 days after the

end of each quarter. As such, no revenue has been received yet as of December 31, 2017, which is consistent with the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Business licenses taxes are due in November of each year and are valid from October 1 through September 30 of the following year. The City has collected 90% of the budgeted taxes and expects to continue to collect the remaining expected amounts in the third and fourth quarters.

Charges for Services. These include building permits, engineering and planning fees, and police services. Permits and planning fees tend to fluctuate based on the timing of larger projects and are expected to come more in line with the budget as the fiscal year progresses. The City completed the Comprehensive Master Fee study on FY 2016-17, which we expect to result in greater cost recovery in the current fiscal year.

Inter-governmental. This revenue category includes vehicle code fines, governmental grants and various cost reimbursements. The State is currently paying State Mandate claims from prior years as funds become available.

SUMMARY

Overall, the City’s operating budget for expenditures is performing well as of the end of the second quarter. Certain revenues, such as Transient Occupancy tax, sales taxes, and franchise taxes will only reach budgeted figures when they are accrued at the end of the fiscal year, due to timing issues and governmental accounting basis. The City continues to experience strong revenue generation and overall economic growth.

AGENDA REPORT  

For meeting of:   February 20, 2018 

 TO:    Honorable Mayor and City Council  VIA:    Dave Boesch, Interim City Manager  FROM:   Jill Ekas, Community Development Director    TITLE:  LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM UPDATE ______________________________________________________________________________  RECOMMENDATION: Receive a status report on the Local Coastal Program Update.  FISCAL IMPACT:   There is no fiscal impact associated with providing an LCP update.   STRATEGIC ELEMENT: This action supports all elements of the Strategic Plan (Infrastructure and Environment, Healthy Communities and Public Safety, Fiscal Sustainability, and Inclusive Governance).  BACKGROUND: The City has been engaged in a comprehensive update of its Local Coastal Program (LCP), which is currently focused on policy in the Land Use Plan (LUP). A first public draft LUP was published in April 2016. Second drafts of the following chapters were prepared by staff and reviewed by the Planning Commission over summer 2017:  

Coastal Access and Recreation  Cultural Resources  Coastal Hazards  Scenic and Visual Resources 

The Planning Commission provided input on those chapters and staff is prepared to revise them for final Planning Commission review as soon as the other chapters are complete. Following completion of those draft chapters, staff has been working on updating the development, public works, and natural resources chapter.  

In July 2017, the City hired Dr. Charles Lester as a policy consultant to assist with that work. At the October 24, 2017 Planning Commission session, Dr. Lester presented a land use overview covering the Coastal Act framework, Half Moon Bay’s certified LCP, and considerations for the LCP update. Dr. Lester’s presentation and white paper are posted on the Plan Half Moon Bay 

18

Page 2 of 3 

web page (www.planhmb.org). Following the presentation, the Planning Commission received public comment, provided input, and noted priorities and concerns with respect to land use and growth management in the LCP update. 

At the next Planning Commission session on November 14, 2017, staff presented a land use policy framework summary. This document is provided in Attachment 1. The Planning Commission provided input regarding residential, commercial and agricultural land uses. The Planning Commission’s input aligned with City Council’s past direction to focus development within the core area of the city, provide for flexibility and diversity in housing and mixed‐use development, update the PUDs, and address the needs of agriculture businesses. 

Also in summer 2017, the City hired an environmental planning consultant, Huffman‐Broadway Group, to prepare detailed hydrological and habitat maps. The City’s maps have not been updated for many years. The new map will incorporate the results of numerous site specific biological resource evaluations which have been conducted throughout the City over the past twenty years. The maps are based on high resolution LIDAR and aerial photography from San Mateo County’s GIS work group. The City received this valuable base map data for free based on its status as a member of the San Mateo County City/County Association of Governments (G/CAG). Originally, it was hoped that this data would be available in August; however, it was delayed until late November. The data has been successfully conveyed to the consultant in an appropriate format and the consultant has been making solid progress on the base map over the past two months.  Staff also notes that the City received an LCP support grant for $85,000 from the Coastal Commission which fully funds this map update project. 

The Planning Commission has been asked to consider their preferred approach to supporting development and review of the LUP. In 2017, staff twice offered the Commission the option of forming a subcommittee, however, they declined at that time. At the Planning Commission’s meeting on February 13, 2018, staff revisited this option. The Commissioners indicated that they would like to reconsider and formation of a subcommittee will be agendized for their next meeting.  DISCUSSION: For the LUP, the following chapters are being revised for Planning Commission input: 

Development  Public Works  Natural Resources 

Staff has been working directly on the Development Chapter. This chapter should be ready for Planning Commission input in March. It will precede the Public Works Chapter which is reliant on build out modeling that will be based on policies in the Development Chapter. Progress is also being made on the Natural Resources Chapter as the hydrology and habitat mapping effort progresses. Staff anticipates that a draft of the map will be ready for Planning Commission review in April or May. Staff’s goal is to have all chapters, including those previously reviewed 

19

by the Planning Commission, in a substantially complete format for Commission consideration in May or June. They will then be brought to City Council over summer.  

Staff notes that we will need assistance from a planning consultant or firm with expertise in modeling and GIS in order to complete the most technical portions of the LUP. As envisioned, this consultant would also be able to provide final document formatting and other support that would be difficult for staff to do with existing time and software resources. The Community Development Director has been in contact with two such consultants to flesh out this task.   ATTACHMENT: Land Use Policy Direction Summary Tables – Planning Commission November 14, 2017
