BACKGROUND The City of Hesperia has contracted with Safeway Sign Company for the past three (3) years to provide traffic signs and related materials. Safeway Sign Company was awarded a three (3) year contract for service during Fiscal Year 2011-12 which is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2015. Safeway Sign Company has requested a one (1) year extension to the contract, agreeing to hold their prices at the current Fiscal Year rates. Safeway Sign Company was unable to provide one (1) item at the current rate (line item No. 35 – sign back straps). This item is available, if needed, from various vendors; therefore this item will be removed from the contract. Safeway Sign Company has provided exceptional customer service over the past three (3) years. ISSUES/ANALYSIS Approval of the contract amendment will increase the not-to-exceed amount of $198,000 by $65,000 for a new total not-to-exceed amount of $263,000. The increase is necessary to continue maintaining traffic signs and replacing the street name signs in area three (3) for upcoming Fiscal Year 2015-16. FISCAL IMPACT Funding for this service has been allocated in the proposed Fiscal Year 2015-16 budget in account number 263-29-310-3150-7400. ALTERNATIVE(S) 1. Provide alternative direction to staff.

New Contract RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a three-year maintenance and licensing contract with Granicus Inc. for an amount not to exceed $124,200. BACKGROUND The City has utilized the Granicus Software Suite for online video streaming and archiving services since 2007 and the Legistar Management Suite for electronic agenda materials and public online portal since 2013. Granicus is a well-respected leader in digital governing that maintains technologies that assist staff in efficiently creating and delivering content, providing information to Hesperia residents in an easily accessible manner. The City is satisfied with both products and associated services. ISSUES/ANALYSIS The Granicus Software Suite provides voting software, live video streaming and video archiving of the City Council, Planning Commission, and soon, City Council Advisory Committee and Public Safety Advisory Committee meetings. This web hosted service is provided for a monthly service fee of $2,470. The Legistar Management Suite provides an electronic agenda solution and an online portal for the public to access all City Council agenda materials. This web hosted service is provided for a monthly fee is $980. FISCAL IMPACT Funding for the first year of this contract is included in the Fiscal Year 2015-16 Budget, within the City Manager Department. The remaining years will also be budgeted in the City Manager Departmental budget, for each respective year. ALTERNATIVE(S) 1. Provide alternative direction to staff. ATTACHMENT(S) None.

Agreement RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager enter into a five-year agreement with CompuCom Systems Inc. for an amount not to exceed $290,000 for licensing of all Microsoft operating systems. BACKGROUND Microsoft licensing is the base foundation of computer applications for all the City’s servers and workstations. The licensing enables the City to continue to utilize products and be in compliance of Microsoft’s Enterprise Agreement. ISSUES/ANALYSIS Prior to entering into the Enterprise agreement with Microsoft, all Microsoft licenses were purchased individually for each computer. Entering into an Enterprise agreement provides a cost savings to the City through reduced rates of between 50% to 80% per license. Over a fiveyear period a total estimated savings of $504,885 will be realized. This is possible by leveraging the existing pricing contract utilized by the County of Riverside and the State of California. The $290,000 requested represents a contract amount of $245,000 with a $45,000 contingency amount. The contingency will allow the City to add additional product licenses to the contact as business needs require. FISCAL IMPACT Funding for the first year of this agreement is included in the City Manager Department FY 2015-16 Budget and funding for future years will continue to be budgeted in the City Manager Department.

No. 7400), do not award a contract, and allow staff to combine the Year 1 project with the Year 2 project, and advertise the combined projects for bid. BACKGROUND Agencies of both the Federal and State government have passed regulations related to ADA. In order to comply with these regulations, the City will need to make modifications to existing infrastructure, including public buildings. Staff has begun an evaluation of City-owned facilities and improvements within public right of way to identify any improvements that may be needed to meet the requirements of the ADA regulations and a Transition Plan to guide these improvements is under development. Concurrent with this internal evaluation, staff has identified work that can be initiated immediately in order to reduce the number of modifications that will ultimately need to be done. The Council has indicated support for this approach by allocating Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding in the FY 2014-15 budget and staff is requesting additional funding in the proposed FY 2015-16 budget. Supplemented with additional Measure I funding, staff has been able to select multiple locations within City right of way to begin the process of modifying existing facilities. This will be a multi-year program to bring the City into compliance with the regulations. Additional ADA projects will be brought before the City Council in future fiscal years. On June 17, 2014 the City Council approved the FY 2014-15 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that contained the ADA Improvements – Year 1 Project, C.O. No. 7400 and included funding for commencement of work. Funding is being requested in the proposed FY 2015-16 budget for additional work. ISSUES/ANALYSIS Staff issued a public “Notice Inviting Sealed Bids” for construction of the project and advertised for bids beginning on May 12, 2015. In addition, a “Call for Bids” was sent to 22 contractors. On June 4, 2015 bids were received, opened, and publicly read from the following two bidders: RG General Engineering Jitney Company, Inc. Yucaipa, CA Corona, CA Page 33 $ 63,035 $102,697 Page 2 of 2 Staff Report to the Mayor and Council Members Award Contract, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Improvements – Year 1 June 16, 2015 However, prior to the bid opening date staff held a mandatory pre-bid meeting to provide details on the project to potential bidders. Any potential bidder for this project was required to attend this meeting in order to be considered a responsive bidder. One of the contractors that submitted a bid for this project (Jitney Company) did not attend that pre-bid meeting. Considering the fact that the pre-bid meeting was mandatory, the City would not be allowed to accept the bid from the contractor who did not attend the pre-bid meeting. Subsequently, the City has only one responsive bid submitted for this project. According to Federal regulations, when procuring a public works by sealed bids, 24 CFR Part 85.36(d)(2)(i) requires the submittal from two or more responsive and responsible bidders that are willing and able to compete effectively for the project. In order to utilize CDBG funds (Federal funds) on this project, the City will have to rebid the project (i.e. new advertisement for the solicitation of bids, new bid documents with revised dates for pre-bid meeting, bid opening date, etc.) to ensure that at least two responsible and responsive bids are submitted. Staff is recommending that the two bids received for the ADA Improvements – Year 1 project be rejected and that the Year 1 project be combined with the Year 2 project and that both projects be bid as a combined single project during FY 2015-16. In order to attract more than one responsive bidder, staff will be combining the Year 1 project funded in the FY 2014-15 budget with the Year 2 project that is proposed in the FY 2015-16 budget. Staff believes that a project that is approximately $340,000 total in size and scope as opposed to the stand-alone Year 1 project of $90,000 will attract more bidders. It is anticipated that the combined project will be advertised for bids no later than August/September 2015. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with rejecting the bids.

BACKGROUND Council Member Blewett requested the City Attorney’s office to prepare an ordinance that would prohibit the sale of single-serve containers of alcohol. Several cities in California have adopted such bans, including Victorville, San Bernardino, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, and Redlands. ISSUES/ANALYSIS The proposed ordinance would address public nuisances that may arise from the sale of singleserve alcoholic beverages. Single-serve alcoholic beverages are defined as any alcoholic beverage packaged and sold individually as a single serving. This definition excludes multiple cans or bottles packaged together, as well as bottles or containers of wine of at least 750 ml or bottles or containers of distilled spirits of at least 375 ml. Studies show a correlation between the consumption of single-serve alcoholic beverages and higher gang crime within the area. California Government Code Section 38771 permits the legislative body of a city to declare what constitutes a nuisance. According to California Civil Code Section 3479, a nuisance is “[a]nything which is injurious to health, including, but not limited to, the illegal sale of controlled substances, or is indecent or offensive to the senses, or an obstruction to the free use of property, so as to interfere with the comfortable enjoyment of life or property, or unlawfully obstructs the free passage or use, in the customary manner, of any navigable lake, or river, bay, stream, canal, or basin, or any public park, square, street, or highway.” The article attached as Exhibit 2 to this staff report cites studies that demonstrate a link between single-serve alcohol sales and higher gang crime, which in turn interferes with the enjoyment of property nearby and is injurious to the health, safety and welfare of the general public. 01071.0001/254629.2 Page 37 Page 2 of 2 Staff Report to the City Council Single-Serve Alcohol Sales Ordinance June 16, 2015 The ordinance may be enforced administratively or criminally in the same way as any other municipal code violation. Administrative citations may be given after reasonable notice. FISCAL IMPACT The ordinance may result in additional enforcement costs for City code enforcement staff or Sheriff’s Department staff.

WHEREAS, the City Council finds sale of single-serve alcoholic beverages by establishments selling for off-site consumption constitutes a public nuisance and is a threat to the public peace, safety and welfare of the City; and NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF CITY OF HESPERIA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Section 8.32.100 is hereby added to the Hesperia Municipal Code to read as follows: Section 8.32.100 -- Single-serve alcoholic beverages. A. For purposes of this section, “single-serve alcoholic beverages” means any alcoholic beverage packaged and sold individually as a single serving. Common examples would be a 12 or 24 ounce can of beer or 32 or 40 ounce bottle of beer or malt liquor. Multiple cans or bottles packaged together do not fall within this definition, nor do bottles or containers of wine of at least 750 ml or bottles or containers of distilled spirits of at least 375 ml. B. It is unlawful and hereby declared a public nuisance for an establishment selling alcohol for off-site consumption to sell single–serve alcoholic beverages, wine of less than 750 ml in size, or distilled spirits of less than 375 ml in size. SECTION 2. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of Page 39 competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrase, or portions of this ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this ordinance and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions be declared invalid or unconstitutional. SECTION 3. This Ordinance shall be effective thirty (30) days after its adoption. SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause a copy of the same to be published in a manner prescribed by law.

Alcoholic beverages that are packaged for consumption by a single individual at a given time are known as “single-serves.” These products may contain beer, distilled spirits or alcoholic energy drinks, which, in addition to alcohol, usually contain caffeine as well as other stimulants.1 However, the most common single-serve items are bottles and cans of beer, ranging in size from 16 to 40 ounces. Such items often have higher alcohol content than regular beer, making them more potent. Problematic Packaging Single-serve alcoholic beverages are considered problematic for a number of reasons. First is that excessive amounts of alcohol are being packaged for consumption by a single individual. This is especially true of the high alcohol content beer known as malt liquor. With 6 percent alcohol content being standard, a 40 ounce bottle of this kind of product is equivalent to five shots of whiskey. Since it sells for as little$1.39 a bottle, it is the cheapest way for someone to get drunk.2 This makes it a favorite among the homeless and other serial inebriates, including those receiving public assistance, according to research.3 Secondly, single-serve products are routinely offered for sale cold and ready to be consumed. This frequently Since Hispanic customers prefer lemon with some types of beer, one San Bernardino store offers fresh lemons so that the product can be consumed immediately after purchase. (Sign reads: don’t forget the lemons) 24 ounce cans of beer are the most common type of singleserve alcoholic beverages being sold in San Bernardino, but 32 and 40 ounce bottles are also found in many supermarkets and convenience stores. leads to public intoxication and a wide range of associated problems including driving under the influence, public urination, litter, and other disruptive behavior. According to research, such problems are reported on a regular basis by residents living in the proximity of retailers that sell single-serves. In addition, there are also reports of crimes of violence, including gang-related activities, resulting in personal injury A 40 ounce and/or property damage.4, 5, 6 Underage Drinking bottle of malt liquor is equal to five shots of whiskey. Last but not least, it should be noted that the single-serve cans and bottles of beer are very popular with youth including minorities, to whom these products are specifically marketed. This includes several advertising campaigns featuring African American music video stars promoting malt liquor in 40-ounce containers. In addition, since these products are typically priced low, they are more affordable for young people who have less disposable income.7, 8 As a consequence, these products may tend to increase problems related to underage drinking. These are known to include poor academic performance, high-risk sexual practices and an increased likelihood of drinking problems developing later in life.9 Page 41 Single Serve Alcoholic Beverages Page 2 Crime & Violence The connection between crime, violence and alcohol availability has been well documented by scientific research.10, 11, 12 Furthermore, there is new evidence indicating that the consumption of single-serve alcoholic beverages may also play a part. For example, a 2006 study of Riverside crime statistics that found a correlation between such sales and higher gang crime. According to Dr. Robert Nash Parker, the author of the study, such products are a central part of the activities of gang members. “They sip 40-ouncers, they party, they get their courage up," it was noted in the report.13 Through GIS mapping studies, city officials in San Bernardino have also established a correlation between the sales of single-serve alcoholic beverages and the prevalence of crime. As noted on the map at right, reports from police of Part 1 property crime clearly demonstrate that such crime is clustered around alcohol licensees known as “Package Stores,” most of which are currently selling single serves. Single-Serve Sales in the City of San Bernardino To identify the extent of the problem in the City of San Bernardino, a survey was conducted by the County Department of Public Health, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Program (ADAPP). As part of this effort, some 165 retailers licensed to sell alcoholic beverages were studied and data related to the sales of single-serves were collected. These included the different sizes and types of such items being sold as well as the amount of shelf space Hip-hop artists Meth & Red doing a rap video ad for St. Ides Malt Liquor, a brand that targets African American youth. allocated for them. Results of the survey, which was conducted in October of 2008, showed that these products are a staple in gas stations, convenience and liquor stores throughout the city, with over 88 percent of them having such items on their shelves. Other results of the survey are listed in the table below. 88 % of retailers surveyed in the City of San Bernardino were found to be currently selling single–serves. Research Finding: Single-Serves in the City of San Bernardino • Of the 165 off – sale alcohol licensees that were surveyed, a total • Most super markets and many AM/PM type stores also sold singles of 146 had alcoholic single serve items for sale. These stores included pharmacies, discount stores and some gas stations and midsize markets. shrink-wrapped in packages of 2 or 3 24oz. containers. • It was noted that retailers located further south (central or down- the most frequently observed size was the 24 oz can. All of the super markets and many of the smaller off – sale stores also sold alcohol in 32 oz and 40 oz size glass containers. town San Bernardino) and south west (Westside San Bernardino) of the city had the malt liquor products more prominently displayed in the cooler section at, or above, eye level. In the northern parts of the city the malt liquor had less shelf space and was often displayed below eye level. • All the major alcohol brands were being sold in single serve con- • It was noted that approximately 10% of the stores had special ads/ • All of the stores that sold singles had the items in various sizes, but tainers. Super markets that catered to the Hispanic community also included favorite Mexican beer brands Modelo and Tecate in 24 oz single cans. • Most of the stores had between 6 and 8 cooler sections available for display of beverages. Of these, between 1 to 2 cooler sections usually had single serve products on display for sale. • All the stores sold the higher alcohol content malt liquor in single displays to promote single serve items such as barrels of ice or posted ads offering 2 for a reduced price. One store had a handwritten sign posted on the cooler door that stated you had to buy 2 singles at a time. • One Hispanic super market had a special plastic container affixed to the cooler door that stated in Spanish: Don’t forget the lemons! • Stores that were visited between the hours of 2 pm to 5 pm were serve containers. Alcohol was also available in regular beer, lite beer and lite malt liquor. observed to have customers buying single-serve items. Such customers were mostly males from 25 to 45 years old. Page 42 Single Serve Alcoholic Beverages Page 3 City of San Bernardino: Part-1 Violent Crime in Proximity of ABC Licensed Package Stores GIS mapping of the Central portion of the City of San Bernardino shows how often violent crimes (red dots) occur within a onehalf mile radius (indicated by the blue circles) from ABC licensed alcoholic retailers (blue triangles). Data collected by San Bernardino Police Department in 2007. Note: Part-1 crimes are a category of crimes that are generally considered more serious. Page 43 Single Serve Alcoholic Beverages Page 4 Future Directions Although sales of single-serves are widespread in San Bernardino, it is actually illegal for some of the city’s retailers to be selling products packaged in this way. This is because of restrictions placed on these businesses by the city at the time their alcohol license was issued. Known as a Conditional Use Permit, such regulations are intended to ensure the public’s health and safety, and all retailers are required to comply with the restrictions imposed by them. However, as demonstrated by the survey cited previously, at least some of the city’s retailers have been failing to meet this obligation. to deal with problem businesses. These may include a stronger conditional use permitting process for any new businesses and what is known as a “Deemed Approved” ordinance for those already in existence. In addition, there is another initiative currently under way to encourage voluntary removal of single-serve products from the shelves by retailers who are not currently required to do so by the law. Coordinated by the Office of the Mayor through the Operation Phoenix program, such action is expected to reduce crime and improve the local business climate. In response to this problem, the Office of the City Attorney launched an enforcement campaign in May, 2009 to bring local alcohol retailers into compliance with all regulations. This campaign has been successful with cited businesses removing the banned products from their shelves. However, enforcement alone can not solve the problem, as many retailers are exempt from the ban, having been in business before it went into effect. Therefore, public officials feel that additional regulations are needed After being cited for violating the restriction against selling single serve alcoholic beverages, a local convenience store removed the items from their shelves and posted a sign indicating they were no longer allowed to sell such items.

RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council provide direction to Staff regarding appropriate traffic control measure along Main Street to enhance public safety. BACKGROUND On May 11, 2014 a traffic collision occurred at the intersection of Main Street and Balsam Avenue. Unfortunately, the collision resulted in several fatalities. Although the incident was deemed “not correctable” by normal traffic control devices, there was a public outcry regarding the perceived safety of the intersection. The Balsam Avenue intersection is located along a curved section of Main Street between the intersections of Cottonwood Avenue and 11th Avenue in a high speed section of Main Street. Collision reports were examined for the Balsam Avenue intersection along with those collisions that occurred in the vicinity of the intersection since 2002. There have been 50 reported collisions that have occurred at or near the intersection, many of these occurring at the driveways west of the intersection. 14 of the 50 incidents resulted in injuries and 2 of the incidents resulted in fatalities, including the incident on May 11, 2014. ISSUES/ANALYSIS Balsam Avenue is a local roadway, and is not designated as an arterial highway. It creates a three-way intersection at Main Street and as such would not typically be a candidate for a traffic signal. Main Street is a Major Arterial Highway as indicated on the City’s adopted General Plan Circulation Element. There are two other three-way intersections on Main Street between Cottonwood Ave and 11th Avenue which are similar in alignment to the Balsam Avenue intersection. These occur at Locust Avenue, and Hickory Avenue. There is over ¾ of a mile between the Cottonwood Ave and 11th Ave intersections on Main Street and the speed limit for this portion of Main Street is 50 mph, with vehicles often exceeding the posted speed limit. Given the higher speeds and heavy traffic volumes along this corridor, executing left turn movements from the side streets or even from the two-way left turn pocket, can be a difficult movement for motorists to execute and requires the utmost in patience. Page 45 Page 2 of 3 Staff Report to Mayor and Council Members Traffic Control Measures on Main Street at Balsam Avenue June 16, 2015 There is a hierarchy to traffic control measures which control left turn movements. The first is to install signage which prohibits left turn movements from the side streets and driveways onto Main Street. This solution is easily disregarded by motorists, and without additional enforcement this would not enhance the safety of the roadway. The next solution is to construct a two-way left turn pocket in the center median area which allows a safe haven for those vehicles turning left into side streets and driveways. This roadway feature is already in place on Main Street. The third option is to construct a raised center median along the corridor which completely eliminates left turn movements. This is the only improvement which eliminates the conflicting left turn movement and has the potential to greatly enhance the safety of the corridor. The negative effect of the raised center median is the forced right-in, right-out movement to businesses along the corridor and it would force more traffic to utilize the traffic signals at Cottonwood Avenue and 11th Avenue. The raised center median would also prevent police and fire vehicles from utilizing the existing two-way left turn lane during emergency calls. The installation of a traffic signal is another measure which could be utilized if the majority of the collisions occur at an intersection. Given the high number of collisions which have occurred at the driveways away from the Balsam Avenue intersection, this option would not be an effective counter-measure. Staff is proposing three options for consideration: 1) Install a raised center median along Main Street at the intersection with Balsam Avenue extending to the east and west along Main Street from the intersection approximately 600 feet. The length of the raised center median would be adjusted to eliminate the left turn movement in and out of the driveways with the highest number of collisions. A protected left turn pocket could be included to accommodate the east-bound Main Street to north-bound Balsam Avenue movement. 2) Install a raised center median from Cottonwood Ave to 11th Ave per the adopted street section for a Major Arterial Highway. This would improve the safety of the intersections and driveways along the corridor between these major intersections. 3) Do nothing. This would ensure that businesses along the corridor are not inconvenienced; however it does nothing to address the safety concerns. The Public Safety Advisory Committee considered this matter on April 14, 2015, after which it recommended that the City Council consider option 2. FISCAL IMPACT Staff has hired a consultant to assist with the preparation of a Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant to cover the majority of the costs associated with either the first or second option. Staff and the consultant are confident that the grant application will be successful given the collision history along the corridor. The cost for the first option would be approximately $100,000 with the second option costing approximately $350,000. Since the City is planning on reconstructing this section of Main Street in the Summer of 2015, the center median improvements could be incorporated into those improvements.

BACKGROUND The City Council, at its May 19, 2015 meeting, received information on animal control issues, and laws governing operations of animal shelters, specifically Senate Bill (SB) 1785, which requirements have been suspended since 2004. In response, Council requested staff provide information on SB1785, known as the “Hayden Bill.” ISSUES/ANALYSIS The Hayden Bill was approved by the State legislature during the 1998 Legislative session, and became effective July 1, 1999. Its purpose was to address “stray animals,” and in so doing it significantly expanded rights and duties of publicly-funded animal shelters through amendments to the California Penal (P), Civil (C), and Food and Agricultural (F&A) codes (see attachment). More than thirteen changes were made to then-existing law. Among those were the following key items (the language below is taken directly from the Hayden Bill): 1. Provided a list of animal records that were to be kept for three (3) years (F&A Code 32003); 2. Allowed nonprofit rescue/adoption groups to obtain animals to be killed, but can’t demand an animal before the hold period is up, nor be given priority over adoption of the same animal. A shelter can’t kill if a nonprofit has requested the animal, and can be required to pay the same adoption fee (F&A Code 31108, 31752-31754); 3. Required shelters to maintain lost/found lists, and provide names/addresses of other area shelters (F&A Code 32001); 4. Required shelters to check for owner-identification on strays (P Code 597.1(l)); 5. Allowed judges to prohibit convicted animal abusers from owning animals (P Code 597.1); 6. Provided for pre/post-seizure hearings (P Code 597.1); 7. Provided for holding period for “working people”: Four (4) days plus the impoundment day, if available at least one weekday evening until 7 p.m., or one weekend day, or; 6 days if the shelter does not have “user-friendly hours” (F&A Code 31108, 31601-31681, 3175231753); Page 51 Page 2 of 2 Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council Animal Control Hayden Bill (SB 1785) June 16, 2015 8. Provided for holding "owner-relinquished” pets rather than killing immediately (F&A Code 31754); 9. Provided for feral cat disposition similar to other animals, allowed killing after threeday hold if a temperament evaluation confirms it is feral (F&A Code 31752.5). In 2000, the mandates under the Hayden Bill were challenged by cities/counties for reimbursement as an “unfunded mandate.” In 2004, the mandates were suspended by the Legislature, due in part to the reimbursement cost to agencies (totaled $23 million). The Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) latest published report (2009) noted that other methods to these mandates were more successful in animal care, including mandatory spay-neuter, and curtailing backyard and professional breeding. Increasing animal hold periods did not increase adoptions, but only prolonged the inevitable. The Hayden Bill continues to be suspended, and is subject to the Legislature’s funding review with each annual budget. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact from this report. ALTERNATIVES 1.

BUDGETING POLICY The City will adopt an annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1st no later than June 30th of the same calendar year. The adopted budget will be balanced with current year operating expenditures fully funded by current year revenues. Fund balance reserves for the General Fund, Water District, and Fire District will be used only for non-recurring expenditures such as capital projects, studies, etc. and not for ongoing operations. In the event that fund balance reserves are used for recurring (operational) expenditures, the City Council will be notified prior to adoption of the annual budget. The City Manager is authorized to implement programs as approved in the adopted budget. A First Quarter and Mid-Year budget review will be conducted for the City Council to determine the status of projected revenues, expenditures, and other financial situations, along with consideration of needed budget amendments. A Third Quarter review is included in the presentation of the upcoming fiscal year’s proposed budget. An internal Fourth Quarter appropriation review is conducted and budget amendments are presented to the City Council as needed. II. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT POLICY The City will identify the estimated costs and potential funding sources for each capital project prior to its submittal to the City Council for approval. Capital projects involve the purchase or construction of major capital assets such as land; equipment; infrastructure; building or permanent improvements including additions, replacements, and major alterations; having a long life expectancy; and costing $5,000 or more. Capital projects are funded by a variety of funding sources, which are often restricted for a specific purpose. Prior to a capital project being included in the annual budget, a determination must be made that the project is an appropriate use of the funds and that there is sufficient funding available. III. REVENUE POLICY Recurring expenditures will be funded by recurring revenue. Recurring expenditure increases that exceed recurring revenue growth should not be approved. Any new or expanded programs should be required to identify new funding sources and/or offsetting reductions in expenditures. In addition: The City shall use a conservative approach in projecting revenues. One-time revenues may be used for one-time expenditures or enhancement of reserves. The City shall update its user fees and charges periodically to recover costs of providing that service for which a fee is charged. Page 81 1 Fiscal Year 2015/16 Adopted Budget Financial Policies III. REVENUE POLICY (Continued) All potential grants shall be carefully reviewed for matching requirements, maintenance of effort requirements, and on-going future expenditures requirements. Intergovernmental grants will be evaluated to determine the long term operating and maintenance costs associated with the grant. The City will maintain water and sewer rate structures which are adequate to ensure that these enterprise funds remain firmly and separately self-supporting, including the costs of operation, capital replacement, cost allocation plan, and debt service. IV. RESERVE POLICY Adequate reserve levels are a necessary component of the City’s overall financial management strategy. It is the responsibility of the City Council to maintain a sufficient level of reserve funds to provide for the orderly provision of services to the citizens of the City of Hesperia. The City Council has the authority to decide the circumstances under which the reserves can be used. The City Manager and the Assistant City Manager-Management Services may, from time to time, make recommendations as to the level of reserve funds necessary for prudent fiscal management. Reserve levels shall be reviewed at least annually during the budget process to ensure that they are consistent with the conditions faced by the City. All uses of reserves require a resolution of the City Council or will be incorporated in the annual adopted budget. The reserve policies for the General Fund, Hesperia Water District (Enterprise Fund), and Hesperia Fire Protection District (Special Revenue Fund) require that a minimum of ten percent (10%) of current fiscal year operations budget (expenditures) be reserved. Cash reserves is a calculation of the ratio of cash and cash equivalents to the total individual fund balance, as reported in the most recently completed Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). The specific purpose of the reserves is to provide funding to meet operational appropriation requirements in the event that either the City, Water District, or Fire District experiences shortfalls in the level of anticipated revenues or unanticipated expenses. V. TRANSFER AUTHORITY The following criteria establish the transfer authority for appropriations as set forth in the fiscal year budget. Division Managers can make transfers between line items in the same program. Department Directors can make transfers between divisions within the same fund. Transfers between departments, within the same fund, will require the City Manager approval. Transfers between the capital expenditure classification and the operating expenditure classifications will require the City Manager approval. Transfers between different funds can only be made with an approved City Council resolution. The Finance Division will review all budget transfers and make recommendations to the City Manager. Page 82 2 Fiscal Year 2015/16 Adopted Budget Financial Policies VI. FISCAL MANAGEMENT An independent firm of certified public accountants will perform an annual financial and compliance audit according to General Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) that will be incorporated into the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). Annually, the City will seek the Governmental Finance Officers Association (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting and the Certificate of Achievement for Distinguished Budget Presentation Awards. VII. INVESTMENTS The City will continue to have a written investment policy approved by City Council resolution annually. The policy for investments in priority order is safety, liquidity, and yield. The City Council will receive reports on the cash position and performance of City investments on a monthly basis. VIII. CAPITAL ASSETS Assets exceeding the value of $5,000 are considered capital assets. All assets will be maintained at a level that protects capital investment and minimizes future maintenance costs. IX. DEBT MANAGEMENT The City will not issue long-term debt to finance current operations. Debt financing should only be used for long-term capital improvement projects or purchases of capital assets, such as water rights, that have a useful life exceeding the term of the financing. In addition, identified revenue sources shall be identified to allow for the principal, interest, and other related payments (debt service) of the long-term debt. The City will seek to maintain a high credit rating through sound financial practices as a basis for minimizing borrowing costs. The City will monitor all forms of debt. Annually, the status of all long-term debt will be reported to the City Council in the annual budget. The City will diligently monitor its compliance with bond covenants and continuing disclosures.
