Placement: Business
Estimated Time: 90 minutes
FROM: Derek Johnson, City Manager

Prepared By: Natalie Harnett, Principal Budget Analyst
SUBJECT: 2023-25 FINANCIAL PLAN PROCESS, ECONOMIC OUTLOOK, BUDGET
POLICIES, AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN REVIEW
RECOMMENDATION
1. Review the 2023-25 Financial Plan Goal Setting Process; and
2. Provide staff with initial input relative to existing Major City Goals; and
3. Review and provide feedback on revised budget and fiscal policies; and
4. Review and discuss the general economic outlook for the 2023-25 Financial Plan
development; and
5. Review the long-term capital outlook plan review.
POLICY CONTEXT
Development and ongoing administration of the City’s budget is heavily guided by State
law, the City’s Municipal Code, City Charter, and budget and fiscal policies which are
reaffirmed by the City Council every two years. Below is a summary of State law, local
regulations and organizational policy that govern development and implementation of the
City’s budget.
California State Law
1. A city may not spend public funds without the legal authorization to do so. Among
other things, a budget appropriates public funds, thereby providing the legal
authorization from the governing body to expend these funds.
2. Like other California public agencies, each city must annually establish its
appropriation limit1 pertaining to the proceeds from taxes in compliance with Article
XIIIB of the California Constitution and California Government Code Sec. 7910.
The City of San Luis Obispo uses the annual budget to establish its compliance
with this law.
1 Proposition 4 (1979) added Article XIIIB to the California State Constitution, which established an
appropriations limit on the state and most local governments. These limits are also referred to as “Gann
Limits” in reference to one of the measure’s coauthors. The fundamental purpose of the Gann Limit is to
keep real (inflation adjusted) per person government spending under 1978 ‑79 levels. The measure
requires that a complex series of calculations be performed each year to compare appropriations to the
limit.

Item 4a
3. The California Constitution (Section 18 of Article XVI) states that no city or county
may incur any debt or liability in any year that exceeds the income and revenue
anticipated for that year without two-third voter approval. By determining the
anticipated income and revenue, the budget process verifies compliance with
these thresholds.
4. California Government Code Section 53901 requires each local agency to file its
budget with the county auditor within 60 days after the beginning of its fiscal year.
5. In order to qualify to receive federal funds, a local agenc y must comply with the
federal single audit act and must retain an independent certified public accountant
to prepare an annual audit of its financial records. This compliance would not be
possible without an adopted budget.
City Charter
Article VIII of the City's Charter contains the requirements for the fiscal administration of
the City. The following sections provide guidance regarding the budget:
1. 801. Fiscal Year - determines the City's fiscal year from July through June.
2. 802. Annual Budget - determines the mandate of the City Manager to bring forth
an annual estimate of income and expenditures.
3. 803. Public Hearing - sets forth the requirement for a public hearing to adopt the
annual budget.
4. 804. Adoption of Budget - requires the Council to adopt the budget after necessary
revisions after input from the public hearing.
City Budget and Fiscal Policies (See Attachment F)
The City's adopted budget policies set forth the purpose of the Financial Plan and cover
the following topics:
A. The Financial Plan Objectives
B. The Two-Year Budget
C. Measurable Objectives
D. The Second-Year budget
E. Operating Carryover
F. Goal Status Reports
G. Mid-Year Budget Reviews
Additionally, under long-term financial planning, the policies stipulate the requirement for
a balanced budget (funding sources equal funding uses) and the addressing of long-term
liabilities and the maintenance of infrastructure. They also outline the requirements for
annual and interim reporting and the City's budget administration in accordance with the
City Charter.

Item 4a
REPORT-IN-BRIEF
Development of the next two-year financial plan officially kicked off on November 15th,
when staff presented the “Setting the Stage” budget item to initiate development of the
2023-25 Financial Plan by providing: an update on progress toward addressing current
Major City Goals, a review of core City services and a scan of strategic indicators which
impact the City’s operations and funds.
The purpose of this item is to provide further foundation for development of the 2023 -25
Financial Plan by:
1. Reviewing and seeking Council approval of the City’s goal setting process,
2. Reporting out on the results of the recent community survey,
3. Reviewing existing and recommended changes to the budget and fiscal policies
that guide staff in developing budget recommendations and managing the budget
throughout the year, and
4. Providing a high-level economic forecast to foreshadow the more local five-year
forecast that will be presented to the City Council on February 7th.
The City of San Luis Obispo engages in a comprehensive financial planning process
every two years and adjusts the budget as needed throughout the two -year financial plan
period. This process includes extensive public outreach to assist the City Council in
establishing Major City Goals, which guide the development of the recommended
Financial Plan. The benefits of this process are two-fold: 1) it ensures that resources are
allocated and focused in the budget to accomplish the community’s highest priority, most
important objectives; and 2) it assesses the support and maintenance needs of the City’s
current services, programs, and capital assets (i.e., core services). It therefore pr ovides
a process to help create a mutual understanding among community members, decision
makers, and City staff through a platform of collaboration toward a common goal.
The outreach efforts include a wide-reaching community priorities survey, the Community
Forum, engagement with advisory bodies to collect recommendations, and several other
inputs to prepare the City Council for selecting community goals and priories for the next
financial plan during its Goal-Setting Workshop. Subsequent Council meetings will
provide direction to City staff for work program development in support of these goals.
To provide the appropriate framework, the Financial Plan process includes a review of
the economic and other relevant trends (i.e., Strategic Scan) and their potential impact to
the City’s forecasted financial position. City staff used multiple sources for the economic
assessment including Beacon Economics, PFM’s Market Update, HdL’s sales tax
forecast and the State’s Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) to name a few.
A major feature in the City’s Financial Plan process is reliance upon clear framework of
fiscal and budget policies. The most well-managed cities across the nation have clearly
articulated fiscal policies to aid financial decision-making and provide for controls and
reporting to monitor performance and progress.
Page 7 of 748
Item 4a
This report highlights one new policy, various edits to the Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) Management policy, and an amendment to the City’s Fund Balance and Reserve
Policy. If approved, the recommended changes will be adopted as part of the 2023-25
Financial Plan.
Lastly, the report includes an overview of the City’s long-range CIP needs. By considering
the future CIP needs in the context of the Financial Plan process, these projects provide
an important starting place in assessing which ones might be a high priority to consider
in the next funding cycle.
DISCUSSION
Two-Year Financial Plan Process
For over thirty years, the City has used this financial planning process to create its
budgets. The benefits of developing and adopting a two-year financial plan include:
1. Reinforcing the importance of long-range planning in managing the City's fiscal
affairs.
2. Concentrating on developing and budgeting related work programs to accomplish
significant objectives to bring resources to focus on those objectives.
3. Establishing realistic timeframes for achieving objectives.
4. Creating a pro-active budget that allows stable operations and service delivery.
5. Assuring the City' s long-term fiscal health.
6. Reducing the amount of time and resources allocated to preparing the annual
budgets.
The fundamental purpose of the City's budget process is to link, through public
engagement and strategic deliberation, the interest of the community to the available
financial resources to achieve the desired outcome. The process allows the City Council
to engage the community in identifying Major City Goals while also providing information
regarding the City's core functions, including the day-to-day work programs and
responsibilities carried out by City employees to support resident quality of life and
community well-being.
Goal-Setting Process
A detailed Financial Plan Calendar was approved on October 4, 2022 and is posted on
the City’s website. There are a variety of opportunities to provide input to the City Council
as they work to establish Major City Goals with the community' s needs and interests in
mind. These opportunities are highlighted in the following graphic:
Page 8 of 748
Item 4a
Many of these efforts have been under way since early November 2022. City Advisory
Bodies have developed recommended goals provided in Attachment A. The Community
Priorities Survey (Attachment B) was mailed out with utility bills, continuously published
on social media, and posted on-line at www.slocity.org/opencityhall. The survey was
closed on December 15, 2022, and the results are included in Attachment C. The Council
held the November 15th "Setting the Stage" meeting with information on the status of the
current Major City Goal, the City's core services, and the General Plan and Climate Action
Plan update. Notice has also been sent to over 100 community groups and individuals
inviting their input and participation (Attachment D).
The two principal elements of the City's goal setting process are the Community Forum,
to be held at the Ludwick Center on Thursday, January 26, 2023, at 6:00 PM, and the
Council Goal - Setting Workshop to be held at City Hall on Saturday, February 11,
2023.
In order to achieve a fully engaged process from all parties, the City typically contracts
with a third-party consultant to facilitate and guide Council and the community through
the forum and goal-setting workshops. The City has contracted with the Centre for
Organization Effectiveness to assist in a three-phase approach:
Page 9 of 748
Item 4a
1. Phase one – City Council Interviews: The Centre consultant will conduct virtual
one-on-one interviews with each of the five City Council members to gain insights,
input, and build connections with each member. The interviews will help the
consultant in developing overarching themes to be utilized in the future group
session (Phase three).
2. Phase two —Community Forum Support: The Centre will provide support for a
Community Forum to be conducted on January 26, 2023 at the Ludwick Center.
3. Phase three — Goal Setting Workshop: The Centre consultant will conduct a half -
day goal setting workshop with City Council Members on February 11, 2023. This
session will be designed to create open dialogue, establish consensus, and identify
objectives to support community needs for the Financial Plan.
Community Priorities Survey
Community feedback and input is a cornerstone of the City's budget process and an
integral part of the decision making on Major City Goals. In addition to encouraging
participation in the Financial Plan process, the community survey asks the City's residents
to share their priorities for the City to accomplish over the next two years in addition to
the core services already provided.
Survey Distribution
To reach as many residents as possible, the City utilizes several outreach methods
including:
1. Utility invoice inserts
2. City website (Open City Hall)
3. City news & e-notification
4. Press releases
5. Social media
6. Outreach to over 100 community groups
Survey Participation
A total of 1,300 individual survey responses were received by December 15, 2022,
representing 65 hours of public comment. This reflects a 1% increase in participation
compared to the same survey conducted two years ago.
Survey Results
It is important to point out that this is not a "scientific survey" or “statistically
representative" and as such the City Council should weigh the feedback accordingly when
interpreting the results. Nonetheless, this has been the historic practice and the results
are useful, especially when viewed in conjunction with the other forms of feedback the
Council will receive in this process. The following charts summarize the top priorities from
the questions asked. Together with an ‘Other' question that was open-ended, it provided
participants up to five responses. The ‘Other’ responses were reviewed by staff and
grouped into themes, where possible. These themes help to identify areas for further
consideration and discussion. Additional analysis is available on Open City Hall
(www.slocity.org/opencityhall) and all survey responses are included as Attachment C.
Page 10 of 748
Item 4a
The Community Priorities Survey asked participants if they would like to maintain the
current Major City Goals or identify different priorities. In total, 429 individuals chose to
keep the current Major City Goals:
Economic Recovery, Resiliency & Fiscal Sustainability
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Housing & Homelessness
Climate Action, Open Space & Sustainable Transportation
The remaining 871 individuals indicated that they wanted to change priorities. If
participants wished to change priorities, they were provided with previous priorities
identified by the community as well as an the open -ended ’Other’ option. If participants
wished to change priorities, they were provided with previous priorities identified by the
community as well as an the open-ended ‘Other’ option. Most participants who completed
the survey ultimately selected individual topics that are consistent with the current Major
City Goals (Graph A).
Individuals completing the Community Priorities Survey were given the option to select
‘Other’ and share a priority not already listed. In total, 164 individuals chose this option.
Staff reviewed all responses, and the chart below captures the top ten themes of those
responses (Graph B).

Item 4a
Community Forum
A cornerstone of the community engagement process is the Community Forum (Forum)
where the community can engage in person and give voice to the desired programs and
initiatives for the City Council to consider as part of the Major City Goal workplans. The
forum is intended to solicit feedback from residents, community groups, stakeholders and
interested individuals on tasks and projects to support the priorities identified through the
Community Priorities Survey. Attendees can review planned 2023-25 projects and
initiatives currently identified in existing plans and policies. The Forum is also intended to
meet the requirements regarding the City's local sales tax, by providing an opportunity for
the Revenue Enhancement Oversight Commission (REOC) to review and discuss the
use of the revenue generated by the Local Revenue Measure2.
The Forum will be facilitated by Sommer Kehrli from the Centre for Organization
Effectiveness (Centre) and streamed online. Sommer facilitated the 2021 Community
Forum and received very positive feedback from the community.
The agenda for the Forum is as follows:
a. Welcome/Opening by Mayor and City Manager and Facilitator
b. 2023-25 Financial Plan Process and Themes from Pre-Survey Presentation by
Finance Director
c. Instructions and Community Input led by Facilitator
d. Self-Selecting Breakout areas on Specific Topics based on the results of the
Community Priorities Survey
e. Public Comment
f. Closing and Next Steps by Mayor and City Manager
2 Code 2.14.040(D), Annual Citizen Oversight Meeting: The REOC shall hold an annual community services
and investment measure community forum for the purpose of taking input from residents and community
members on preferences for the use of the revenues generated by the community services and investment
tax.

Item 4a
Proposed Breakout Areas:
Based on the Community Priorities Survey results, staff identified eight topic areas to
further explore and will create stations that will provide information and opportunities for
feedback on the following topics:
1. Homelessness
2. Housing
3. Infrastructure/Multi Model Transportation
4. Open Space/Climate Action
5. Economic Development/Downtown Vitality
6. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
7. Local Revenue Measure
8. New Ideas
Staff with expertise in each of the selected topics will be on hand at each breakout area
to answer questions, talk about work the City is currently doing, and solicit feedback about
potential new items that could be added to the workplan. There will also be the opportunity
for community members to provide feedback on other topics at the New Ideas station.
Information from the forum will be used by Council at the Council Goal -Setting Workshop
to help set the City’s Major City Goals for the 2023-25 Financial plan.
The Community Forum is scheduled for January 26, 2023, from 6:00-9:00 pm at the
Ludwick Community Center. Childcare will be provided for participants and the bike valet
will be on site for those who choose to bike to the Forum. Please note that parking is
limited in the area around the Ludwick Community Center. For those not able to attend
in person, feedback may also be sent to communityforum@slocity.org.
Council Pre-Work
Based on all the feedback and input received, Council Members will be asked to prepare
and submit up to seven3 candidate goals by 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, February 7, 2023
for consideration during the February 11, 2023, Goal Setting Workshop.
Council Members are also asked to prepare and submit suggestions for changes to
current programs and services that might help fund their desired goals. Templates and
specific instructions for Council member input will be distributed via Council
correspondence in early January. Without identifying who submitted the statements, staff
will compile the feedback verbatim, compose lists and organize feedback by common
topics for review and consideration before the workshop. The lists will be distributed to all
Council Members and made available to the community by the close of business on
Wednesday, February 8, 2023. While staff will retain individual submissions in the working
files, it is recommended that Council members refrain from releasing their personal lists
so that each Council member can review all submissions and discuss them at the Goal-
Setting Workshop before taking a position.
3 This is the maximum number of candidate goals suggested for submittal and five (5) is recommended as
a manageable number of goals given the dynamic, competing and complex challenges to achieve outcomes
related to the previous Major City Goals.
Page 13 of 748
Item 4a
Council Goal-Setting Workshop
At the February 11, 2023, workshop, the Council will review the consolidated goals
presented by Council Members to ensure clarity, completeness and understanding; and
then narrow the list to finalist goals that are supported by a majority of Council Members.
While the Council proceeds with the discussion outlined above, staff will prepare a final
listing that the Council can use in prioritizing goals. In years past, the Council has used a
ranking system of 0 through 5 for each candidate goal and staff recommends continuing
its use for 2023-25, summarized as follows:
5 - most important, highest priorities for City to achieve over the next two years.
4 - very important goal to achieve.
3 - important goal to achieve.
2 - address if resources are available.
1 - defer to 2025-27 for consideration.
0 - not a priority goal.
The number of points used for ranking is typically determined through discussion on the
day of the workshop. Major City Goals will emerge from this process and represent the
most important, highest priority goals for the City to accomplish over the next two years .
Resources to accomplish them should be included in the 2023-25 Financial Plan. The
initial list of Major City Goals following the ranking will include only those goals where a
majority of Council Members rank the goal as a 4 or 5. Subsequent discussion will allow
the Council to refine the goal list, however, the list should remain consistent with the
"Criteria for Major City Goals" (Attachment D).
Local Revenue Measure
The Community Forum will also serve as the City's Annual Citizens' Oversight Meeting4
for the Local Revenue Measure (LRM). The estimated revenue and proposed use of the
funds generated by LRM shall be an integral part of the City's budget and goal -setting
process. It is an opportunity for citizens and the Revenue Enhancement Oversight
Commission (REOC) to participate in determining priority uses of these funds.
While the ballot language provided examples of the types of uses that could be funded ,
the Local Revenue Measure is a general-purpose tax that provides Council with flexibility
to respond to new circumstances and challenges. The unaudited FY 2021-22 total
expenditures (operating and capital projects) were approximately $18 million and an
additional $14.4 million was carried over to FY 2022-23 for use towards existing capital
projects. The REOC held a meeting on September 22, 2022 to review the unaudited FY
2021-22 year-end financials. The audited information will be included in the Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report, which is scheduled to be presented to the City Council
on January 17, 2023 and will be formally reviewed by the REOC in March 2023.

Item 4a
The Local Revenue Measure has been used to support operating and capital projects,
based upon the language in the 2020 ballot measure. Below are the unaudited FY 2021-
22 Local Revenue Measure uses by ballot-language priority.
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Two years ago, this section of the report was focused on the Covid -19 pandemic which
had sweeping implications for both public health and the economy. While the impacts of
the pandemic are perhaps clearer than they were two years ago, there are still many
unknowns and new potential economic challenges.
On November 4, 2022, the annual Central Coast Economic Forecast presented national,
state, and countywide economic data and trends. This information, together with PFM’s
Market Outlook, HdL’s sales tax analysis, the City’s unaudited financials and internal
analysis will provide the basis for the City’s own five-year fiscal forecast which will be
presented to Council with the mid-year report on February 7, 2023. The material provided
by the various economic forecast presenters as well as links to other economic data are
provided in Attachment E.
Overview
The economic outlook is uncertain. The best-case scenario is that the Federal Reserve
Bank (Fed) can accomplish a “soft landing” followed by more normal growth rates and
lower inflation. The worst-case scenario is that the economy is headed towards
recessionary times. Given this uncertainty, the City will take a conservative yet realistic
approach to the forecast that considers various scenarios and adjusts these economic
factors with how they might impact the Central Coast and more specifically, City
revenues.

Item 4a
Economists across the state agree that the growth seen in FY 2021-22 was an anomaly
and some degree of cooling is expected beginning in FY 2022-23. The State’s Legislative
Analyst’s Office significantly lowered its revenue projections for the next five years.
However, this is mainly due to reduced income tax (a major revenue source for the State,
but not for local governments) that is much more sensitive to economic swings, due to
high wage earners making less through stock market investments. While the City’s
revenues don’t swing as drastically from these economic dynamics, two of our major
revenue sources, Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)5 and Sales Tax6, are highly vulnerable
to recessionary impacts.
However, the City’s fiscal health is not just a story about revenue. Even if the Fed can
engineer a “soft landing”, the City’s expenditure budget will need to increase to reflect
multiple years of record high inflation and wage growth. Staff will include an estimate to
account for increased costs in the mid-year forecast, however base operating budgets
(the cost to deliver existing ongoing services) will not be finalized until the end of February.
On the capital side (Capital Improvement Program), initial updated project estimates show
that the forecasted budget for FY 2023-24 is short by about $8-$12 million, assuming that
projects in the 3rd year of the current five-year CIP advance to the 1st year of the 2023-25
Financial Plan. This budget deficit does not include the cost of any new projects. This is
primarily due to an over 20% increase in the California Construction Cost Index.
Needleless to say, some adjustments will need to be made in light of these factors an d
grant funded projects that were further out in the CIP schedule may need to advance in
order to meet funding agreements.
As we move toward financial planning, it will be important to remember that new initiatives
will require trade-offs to fund both current service levels as well as any new work
programs identified through the forthcoming goal setting processes.
Employment: Employment rate is generally considered a lagging indicator of the
economy. The county has seen full recovery since the pandemic and the unemployment
rate has hovered around a low 2.5% for the last six months. Nationally, the unemployment
rate stood at 3.7% in November 2022. While low unemployment is good, it could also
indicate that the economy is not cooling off as quickly as the Fed had hoped. Another
interest rate hike is expected in December and the Fed has signaled that it will continue
to raise rates even at the expense of some employment loss.
5 Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is the City’s third largest source of General Fund revenue behind Sales
and Property Tax. Lodging guests must pay the tax to the operator of the lodging facility at the time the rent
is paid. The operator must remit the 10% tax to the City. TOT applies to all lodging businesses, including
hotels, motels, and homestays.
6 The City has two major sources of Sales Tax: (1) The 1% Local General Fund Bradley Burns is a portion
of the state sales tax that is allocated back to the jurisdiction where the sale was negotiated, or the order
was taken (2) The Local Revenue Measure G-20 is an additional 1.5% local transaction and use tax that is
applied to goods that were delivered or placed into use within the City.
Page 16 of 748
Item 4a
Sales Tax: Sales and use tax revenue far exceeded the City and HdL (the City’s Sales
Tax consultant) projections for FY 2021-22. This is consistent with trends across the state.
High consumer spending accelerated by savings accumulation and pent ‐up demand
continued with the gradual opening of the economy, the return of students to in‐class
sessions, and renewed travel activity. High inflation through labor and supply chain issues
intertwined with Fed monetary policy to counteract inflation and a war driving gas prices
to all‐time highs, all greatly impacted sales tax.
Looking towards the future, stock market woes and rising consumer prices (as raw
materials and components are more expensive) could further weaken consumer
confidence and households may pull back on discretionary purchases over the first half
of calendar year 2023. The City expects to see a cooldown or flattening in its sales tax
revenue over the next several years.
Tourism: Tourism and hospitality are an important part of the San Luis Obispo economy
and about 70% of the local sales tax generated is from visitors and day-time commuters.
Tourism along the central coast made a strong comeback in FY 2021 -22 as the region
benefited from being a drive-to destination and visitors enjoyed the new boutique hotels
within the City limits. Despite inflation and increased gas prices, the tourism program
continued to see record high monthly TOT remittals through November 2022. It’s
unknown how long this will continue but City’s tourism program together with the
countywide tourism office expect to see a growth plateau and a possible decline as we
move into calendar year 2023.
Real Estate: As mortgage rates increased over the last year, listing prices came down
from a record hot market. According to Redfin, the average sale price of a home in San
Luis Obispo in October 2022 was down 12% from the prior year. The number of days
homes stay on the market has increased and the number of homes sold has also
decreased. Despite the market cooling, we do not expect to see a housing crash like the
Country and Region experienced during the Great Recession. The biggest challenge in
the forecast will be incentivizing the development of new housing units, specifically
affordable housing, to attract buyers in a tighter lending market with a contracting
economy.
Overall, property tax revenue is one of the less volatile revenue streams and is generally
expected to continue growing at a modest rate. Annual property tax assumptions are
periodically provided by the County Assessor’ s office and the latest assumptions for the
City will be included in the long-term forecast provided at mid-year.
Construction Activity: While construction activity peaked during FY 2019-20, the City
of San Luis Obispo is still experiencing elevated levels of construction and permit activity.
Housing construction remains steady for new home construction and Accessory Dwelling
Unit construction. New construction of commercial buildings is almost entirely focused on
mixed-use development projects. Notable projects that continue to move forward this
fiscal year include the Anderson Hotel rehabilitation, 650 Tank Farm mixed-use project,
Broad Street Corridor development along Victoria Avenue, and ongoing home
Page 17 of 748
Item 4a
construction in Avila Ranch, San Luis Ranch, and in the Orcutt Area (e.g., Bullock Ranch,
Righetti Ranch and South Morros subdivisions). Finally, the city is expecting to receive
applications for on-site and off-site improvements for development of the Froom Ranch
Specific Plan area before the end of this fiscal year. Overall, development services
revenues are on track to meet projections, which were adjusted downward at the
beginning of this fiscal year due to higher interest rates leading to a slow -down in
construction lending and new home purchases.
Long Term Fiscal Health
The City enters the 2023-25 Financial Planning period with a solid financial foundation
despite facing challenges and economic uncertainty. The City continues to have
substantial advantages compared with many communities in California due to:
1. A balanced budget and reserves above minimum policy levels.
2. Dedication to fiscal responsibility and long-term sustainability.
3. Strong financial systems, policies, and procedures.
4. Strong Council Leadership.
5. Citizens who care deeply about the City’s quality of life and services.
6. Staff who are committed, dedicated, and passionate about achieving the City’s
mission and serving the community.
7. A great tradition of responsible stewardship and governance; and
8. A successful local transaction and use tax initiative that will bring additional
revenue to the General Fund.
The civic infrastructure will serve San Luis Obispo well in successfully meeting challenges
ahead while addressing the needs of the community.
Consideration of “one-time” funding for new initiatives that began in 2021-23
Between the 2021-23 Financial Plan budget appropriations and the 2021-22 Mid-Year
budget adjustments, there was approximately $3 million of one-time funding allocated in
FY 2022-23 for pilot programs or new initiatives. Staff recommend that some of these
allocations should be incorporated into ongoing operations before consideration of new
initiatives. The reason that some of these initiatives were budgeted as one time was
because the economic outlook was unclear at the time. Many were truly one-time
expenses for urgent operating or capital needs; however, some were funded as a strategy
to bridge to a time when the econ omic forecast was clearer. Starting new programs as
one-time “pilots” also gives staff more clarity on what can realistically be achieved. Some
of these one-time funded items include the annual DEI Grants, business retention
programs, homeless program funding, increased bed capacity at the Homeless Services
Center, and various pilot programs.

Item 4a
CalPERS and the City’s Unfunded Liability
With the $12.4 million catch-up payment to CalPERS made in March 2022, the forecast
maintains its pre-pandemic commitment to address the City’s long-term pension liability by
making additional investments each year. However, in July 2022, CalPERS reported a 6.1%
net loss on investments for the 12-month period that ended June 30, 2022. Staff will likely
recommend at the 2022-23 Mid-Year Review that any FY 2021-22 one-time General Fund
Balance above the forecasted amount be used to make an additional one-time payment
towards CalPERS. This will help offset the losses announced in July. The City’s commitment
to annually pay additional contributions will serve the organization in the long run.
2023-25 Financial Plan Policies
A major feature of the City's Financial Plan development process is reliance upon clear fiscal
and budgetary policies following industry best practices. In looking at cities across the nation
that have reputations for being financially well-managed, they all have clearly articulated
fiscal policies for financial decision making. The City of San Luis Obispo's policy framework
has been repeatedly acknowledged by the bond rating agencies as an important factor in
sustaining the City's excellent credit rating.
The City's Budget and Fiscal Policies (Attachment F) are traditionally set forth in the
reference section of the Financial Plan. The policies cover a broad range of fiscal topics,
including:
A. Budget Policies
B. Fiscal Policies:
1. General Revenue Management
2. User Fee Cost Recovery Goals
3. Enterprise Fund Fees and Rates
4. Revenue Distribution
5. Investments*
6. Appropriation Limitations
7. Fund Balances and Reserves*
8. Unfunded Liability and CalPERs (NEW POLICY RECOMMENDATION)
9. Capital Improvement Management
10. Capital Financing & Debt Management*
11. Human Resources Management
12. Contracting for Services
13. Productivity
*These sections have been updated and adopted as comprehensive stand-alone policy documents. They
are posted on the City’s website and linked within Attachment F.
At the onset of each financial planning cycle, the City reviews the adopted policies to
determine if any updates are necessary. Changes are generally intended to create
consistency amongst City fiscal policies, reflect current practices and create a system that
is efficient and effective to administer. All the proposed edits are included in Attachment F.
Additions are underlined throughout the document and anything removed has been
indicated with a strike through. Because of the recommended policy changes, the policy
sections have been re-numbered.
Page 19 of 748
Item 4a
There are three policy changes or additions recommended:
Revenue Stabilization Reserve (Attachment F – pg.2): The first policy recommendation is
to re-establish a policy for the General Fund Revenue Stabilization Reserve. The City
maintained a Revenue Stabilization Reserve through the Fiscal Health Response Plan
(FHRP) but eliminated it with the 2021-23 Financial Plan. A stabilization reserve is a
mechanism to insulate the City from large fluctuations in tax revenue. It will allow the City
to manage a potential economic downturn without immediately utilizing the operati ng
reserve. Given the economic unknowns, staff recommend re-establishing the reserve,
especially as the City grows more reliant on taxes that are the most heavily impacted by
economic downturns. Given that the one -time over-realization of FY 2021-22 revenue
was from taxes, Council took action on October 4, 2022, to allocate $2 million of General
Fund balance to the reserve (R-22367).
Unfunded Liability and CalPERs (Attachment F – pg.13): With the 2018-19 Financial Plan
Supplement, the City adopted its FHRP; a three-year plan to address the City’s escalating
unfunded pension liability stemming from the CalPERS’ changes under the Public
Employees’ Pension Reform Act (PEBRA). PEBRA prescribe that a member agency’s
pension liability had to be paid down over a 3 0-year period which triggered annually
escalating contributions through 2045.
The FHRP therefore targeted a realignment of revenues and expenditures to allow for
additional payments to CalPERS, negotiated additional contributions toward pension
payments for employee groups, and prioritized the use of unassigned fund balance once
the City’s Financial Statements had been audited and accepted by the City Council. The
goal of this realignment was the payment of the UFL over a reduced timeline therefore
securing pensions for City employees and saving the City considerable interest
payments.
Given the long-term ramifications of the deliverables put in motion through the FHRP, the
new policy addresses the City’s long-term commitment to payment of the UFL, annual
additional discretionary payments (ADPs), and the needed prioritization to hold the
shortened timeline.
Capital Improvement Program Management (Attachment F – pg.16): At the November
15, 2022 Council Meeting, staff presented a recommendation to restructure the CIP
budget, using ‘funding buckets’ to provide budget appropriation for Asset Maintenance
and Asset Replacement projects. While some Councilmembers were supportive of the
bucket concept, others had transparency concerns and wanted to make sure that the City
Council would have the opportunity to evaluate and approve significant project budget
adjustments that might impact the ability to deliver other projects. Due to concerns
expressed by both the REOC and City Council, staff has decided to defer further
discussion about the funding bucket approach to a future Financial Plan (beyond 2023 -
25). This deferral will provide staff with additional time to refine the approach and have
targeted meetings both REOC and the City Council to gather additional input and address
current concerns. The deferral will also provide the opportunity to discuss a restructuring
of the CIP budget when the City isn’t amid developing its next Financial Plan . This will
enable a more engaged process to ask questions and address issues.
Page 20 of 748
Item 4a
Despite deferral of changes to the CIP budget structure, other efforts to improve the City’s
ability to deliver the CIP are still underway. Staff has worked to amend existing policies
and add new language to provide for more holistic governance of the CIP. Many of the
recommended changes clarify existing processes, roles and responsibilities, or document
new administrative processes that have or will be implemented as a part of broader
process improvement efforts. Staff reviewed the recommended changes to CIP policies
with the REOC on December 8, 2022 and REOC members voted to endorse staff’s
recommendations. A summary of the recommended policy changes is included in
Attachment F (includes a redline version of the changes).
Long-Range CIP
The Long-Range CIP provides a glimpse into the future improvement needs of the City
as envisioned by the General Plan and other Council adopted plans. Many of the City's
current infrastructure assets are not adequate to handle the needs of the future San Luis
Obispo. Many streets must be built or widened, intersections improved, bicycle facilities
added, water lines and sewer lines extended into new areas, and new parks must be bu ilt.
Updated project costs in Attachment G represent a 23% construction cost escalation from
prior projections generated for the 2021-23 Financial Plan Budget Foundation in
December 2020.
The Long-Range CIP can serve as a guide for required future investments to support the
General Plan as well as other Council approved policies, plans, and goals in place today.
By considering the Long-Range CIP needs in the context of the Financial Plan process,
these projects provide an important starting place in assessing which ones might be a
high priority to consider in the next funding cycle.
Below is a summary of the methodology behind the data in the Long-Range CIP:
1. The City's Capital needs are categorized into
a. Maintenance of Existing Assets
b. Replacement of Existing Assets
c. New Assets
2. The Replacement of Existing Assets and New Assets categories of capital needs
are primarily unfunded to the extent that funding for Maintenance of Existing
Assets is prioritized.
3. The Long-Range CIP includes projects that are funded from all City funding
sources including General and Enterprise Funds.
4. As a result of extensive review of approved City planning documents, the General
Plan, and Area Specific Plans, the total allocation for Replacement of Existing
Assets and New Assets is approximately $1.27 billion.
5. The Long-Range CIP includes idealized funding levels of Annual Asset
Maintenance. The City has historically funded asset maintenance at a lower level
than what is included in the Long-Range CIP.
6. The Long-Range CIP delivery timeframe extends beyond 2040 with maintenance
costs assumed to last in perpetuity.
Page 21 of 748
Item 4a
The Long-Range CIP is an important high-level planning tool, but it is important to
remember that project costs will change. Project cost estimates are developed from high-
level project descriptions. During the scoping, budgeting and implementation of all
projects, costs will change based upon increased and refined project data.
The Long-Range CIP is presented to Council as part of the Budget Foundation discussion
and Goal Setting Process to provide context for future capital needs. Historically, the
Long-Range CIP is presented without a proposed strategy to address those needs.
Staff has tasked a consultant, PFM, to analyze the City’s funding strategy for long term
CIP investments to balance out pay as you go, debt financing, and projected revenues .
There are also several anticipated infrastructure funding sources from marquee Federal
Bills - the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Both
offer unprecedented levels of potential funding and should be considered when evaluating
funding strategies moving forward.
Public Engagement
Public engagement on this item can be provided to the City Council through written
correspondence prior to the meeting and through public testimony at the meeting. This
item continues the extensive public engagement processes to support development of
the 2023-25 Financial Plan, as discussed above.
CONCURRENCE
The City’s internal Financial Plan Steering Committee concurs with the recommendations
included in this report. The REOC met on December 8th and concurs with the
recommended CIP policy changes.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to the recommended
action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA
Guidelines Sec. 15378.

Item 4a
There is no fiscal impact associated with the conduct of the City’s two -year financial
planning process. The current budget includes funding for all the planned activities that
are part of this process.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Modify the proposed Goal Setting activities. The Council could direct staff to
pursue a different process for goal-setting this year. Staff does not recommend this
alternative because there is value in conducting a similar process year to year to
ensure maximum resident engagement. If the Council is interested in making
changes, staff recommends that they be incremental adjustments to the activities
planned. If major changes are desired, those should be discussed and planned during
the first year of the upcoming financial plan to ensure that staff has the necessary time
to develop a new process.
2. Do not approve the recommended budget and fiscal policy changes. The Council
could direct staff to leave the current budget and fiscal policies unchanged or make
modifications to proposed changes. Staff does not recommend this alternative as the
recommended policy changes are intended to provide more holistic governance of the
City’s expanded Capital Improvement Program, and further ensure the long-term fiscal
health of the City organization.

2023-25 Financial Plan Proposed Goals & Objectives
Architectural Review Commission
Background
State Housing Laws are making it challenging to utilize subjective design guidelines (i.e. Community Design
Guidelines) for new residential developments. In response, the ARC, in 2021, helped draft the City’s
current Objective Design Standards (ODS) (Municipal Code Chapter 17.69). However new housing laws
have expanded the need for more objective design standards for more types of residential developments
(i.e. single family, duplexes, triplexes, multifamily, mixed-use, etc.). To continue to support the need for
more housing and projects that are compatible with the City’s unique character, the ARC is focused on
the expansion of the City’s ODS to provide additional design requirements for all types of residential
development. The ODS will regulate residential development, however there is also a need to provide a
comprehensive update of the Community Design Guidelines (CDG) to focus the Guidelines specifically on
commercial development and other design guidelines and remove subjective residential design
guidelines.
Goals
1. Expand the Objective Design Standards to provide additional design requirements for more types of
residential developments to include standards and definitions for:
• Specific types of residential developments (single family, duplexes, triplexes, multifamily,
mixed-use, etc.).
• Overall site design (parking areas, outdoor spaces, landscaping, pedestrian access, lighting,
privacy, etc.).
• Transitions between residential and commercial zones and high-density residential and low-
density residential zones.
• Conversion of commercial buildings into residential development.
• And include images and reference photos.
2. Complete a comprehensive update of the Community Design Guidelines for Commercial
developments and other design guidelines including:
• Strengthen and more clearly define guidelines for storefronts and windows in commercial
areas to maintain transparency and prevent the installation of opaque film and interior signs
and displays that obstruct views into stores.
• Update CDG for neighborhood compatibility to address transitions between neighborhood
commercial development and adjacent residential neighborhoods (LUCE §3.5.7.9).
• Overall site design (pedestrian scale, walkability, bicycle infrastructure, outdoor spaces,
landscaping, etc.)
• Include more images and reference photos to highlight guideline language.

Background
With the worst of the pandemic behind us, there are residual challenges that still exist including
inflation, labor shortages and supply chain issues. Sustainability, diversity, equity, inclusion, and carbon
neutrality should continue to be primary considerations in all of our goal work. The City of San Luis
Obispo should strive to attain these goals with the support of the stakeholders and Community
members
Goals
1. Sustain the economic vitality of downtown and other business districts
● We have seen our local businesses survive and, in some cases, prosper over the
last two years and it will be crucial to continue this growth trend in the coming
two years. Local business is the cornerstone of our community's economic
vitality, supporting both jobs and the quality of life of our community members.
● Explore options that expand child care, after school classes, and Parks and
Recreation Programs so families have a better opportunity to earn a livable
household income.
● Continue to fund Economic Development promotional programs like Support
Local including Buy Local Bonus and Eat Local Bonus.
2. Community Engagement and Quality of Life:
● Support placemaking efforts by promoting Public Art Programs and identifying
additional opportunities for public art throughout the city.
● Raise the awareness of San Luis Obispo being an “arts” destination by seeking
opportunities to improve the quality and quantity of arts available to the
community members and visitors of San Luis Obispo. The promotional efforts of
arts should include visual, performing, culinary and permanent/temporary public
art installations.
● Continue implementation of the Monterey/Mission Plaza downtown concept plan.
● Continue to emphasize the quality of life for all the community members and
visitors to San Luis Obispo through the support of programs and grants which
focus on this goal.
3. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion:
● Expand support for programs which provide opportunities to include all
community members in a safe and welcoming way.
Page 29 of 748
2023-25 Financial Plan Proposed Goals & Objectives
● Continue to work with a wide-ranging group of nonprofits and community
organizations to ensure that all community members of San Luis Obispo are
exposed to diverse cultural opportunities.
4. Climate Action and Destination Stewardship
● Support implementation of the City of SLO Climate Action Plan which has the goal of
carbon neutrality by 2035 including the work of sustainable tourism.
● Support enhanced bike and pedestrian infrastructure throughout the city. Encourage
planned buffered and green-striped bike lanes while seeking new opportunities for
additional pedestrian safety measures.
● Improve the Public Transportation system to provide safe access for community
members to shopping and community resources without long waits and route changes.
● Invest in improvements to the city recycling program including compostable containers,
coated papers and more plastics so more items can be recycled leading to less waste.
5. Homelessness Support: Mental Health + Safety
● Continue to increase the support of programs to address the concerns of the
community members and how it relates to the unhoused community.
● Expand the support of local programs and organizations which offer resources
for the unhoused community including: reunification efforts, outreach,
mental/health care access, education, shelter and housing opportunities.
Closing
The PCC is tasked with improving the quality of life for the community members of San Luis
Obispo and we thank you for the opportunity to provide our perspective into your goal setting
process. The PCC will take direction provided by Council and write our goals to fit the finalized
objectives so that we are working together to reach our mutual goals of making the city of SLO
a better place to live and visit.

2023-25 Financial Plan Proposed Goals & Objectives
Planning Commission
Background
On November 16, 2022, the Planning Commission updated goals for City Council consideration for the
2023-25 Financial Plan. The Planning Commission prioritized the following goals based on the evaluation
of the completion status for the 2021-23 Major City Goals; community need, and input received over the
past two years; special and urgent conditions that need to be addressed; and the availability of City
resources to accomplish the identified goals and work programs within the financial plan timeframe.
Goals
1. Housing: Increase Affordable and Workforce Housing Supply
Emphasize affordable housing programs, encourage flexible use and non-traditional housing
product types to facilitate development of workforce, elderly, and missing middle housing.
Provide public information and educational materials that promote the construction of
Accessory Dwelling Units.
2. Sustainability: Reduce GHG Emissions by Reducing VMT and Improving Residential Energy
Efficiency
Implement the Climate Action Plan with emphasis on: 1) identify, implement and promote
financial incentives to improve energy efficiency and encourage electrification in existing
housing stock and create and distribute educational materials promoting this practice; 2)
developing standards that support infrastructure improvements for alternative transportation
and electric vehicles; and 3) focus on expanding open space and the urban forest.
3. Multi-Modal Circulation: Improve Walkability and Transit
Implement the Multi-Modal objectives identified in the LUCE and the Downtown Concept Plan
by encouraging density and in-fill development that includes and prioritizes non-automobile
alternatives to access commercial, services and recreational opportunities. Review the Upper
Monterey Area Plan and Margarita Area Specific Plan with the intention of providing more
housing opportunities to the elderly population, potential for a new transit center located in the
Margarita area and encourage protected bike lanes in all new development projects in these
areas.

2023-25 Community Priorities Survey
What should the City Council
consider as top priorities during
the 2023-25 fiscal years?
9 days left before deadline
The City Council is seeking your input on what the City should priori ze for the 2023-25 Financial
Plan (scroll down for the link to the survey). Every two years the City begins a community-based
goal-se ng process to establish Major City Goals that will help make San Luis Obispo an even
be er place to live, work, and play.
Your input is the first step and will help the City Council understand the community's
priori es. Through the City's budget process, City Council will then match these priori es with the
City's resources and integrate those priori es into its next two-year financial plan, which includes
the City's core services. The adopted budget then enables the City to provide high-quality
services, programs, and projects with the community ’s priori es in mind (see the process
infographic below).

Dear Valued Community Member,
The City of San Luis Obispo is seeking community feedback to help establish community-based goals that
will be incorporated into the City's 2023-25 Financial Plan. This input will enable the City Council to
better prioritize City projects, programs, services and initiatives so that resources and budget can be
assigned to those items that are most important to the community.
“Civic participation is the cornerstone to any good democracy and local government. We encourage
anyone who lives in, works in, or goes to school in SLO to voice your thoughts today about your
priorities” said City Manager Derek Johnson. “The feedback we receive from community members will
directly influence what the City’s budget and work program priorities over the next couple of years.”
Community members can weigh in by completing the online 2023-25 Community Priorities Survey at
slocity.org/opencityhall. The deadline to submit feedback is December 15, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. In
addition to reviewing their own responses on the survey, participants will also be able to review the
feedback that the City is receiving in real time. This goal-setting stage in the budgeting process is a
critical step to ensuring the City can make San Luis Obispo an even better place to live, work and play.
City staff will compile community feedback for the City Council to review in advance of the Community
Forum in January and the Council goal-setting workshop in February. During the workshop, council will
officially set the goals for the next two years. A preliminary budget will then be presented to the City
Council in April and the final 2023-25 Financial Plan adoption in June.
To receive updates from the City, please register for City News e-notifications on the City’s website at
www.slocity.org or follow the City of San Luis Obispo on social media.

• Water security - if we are in a drought with less water available for our
foreseeable future, we need to stop building houses and halt population
growth
• Infrastructure - the city infrastructure including roads, street parking,
water, sewer is not keeping up with the growth of the city. Stop the
growth if the city can't afford to improve infrastructure accordingly.

• Cal Poly students and their parents are only here for a few years; they
and their money no matter how great can no longer be allowed to dictate
and rule our city
• Look at other cities in our area that are growing and thriving (ie Paso)..
there are GLARING differences in what their downtown is doing
compared to ours. Our city council, DT association and mayor are in
denial about it.
• What has been done to Marsh and Higuera is a full on traffic hazard and
a waste of money and resources. Every day the busiest streets
downtown are reduced to 1 lane with delivery drivers having to dart
across traffic and vehicles backed up for blacks because of this
nonsense.
• There needs to be harsher consequences for Cal Poly students who
keep getting noise citations. In the real their are consequences for your
actions. They are supposed to be learning to be adults and since their
parents have swooped in and buy a home for them and their friends and
pay their fines every weekend they are not learning the lessons while
their neighbors who have worked their butts off to buy their homes and
still have to go to work the next day because Cinco de Mayo fell on a
Tuesday and oddly enough Wednesday is a normal workday.

Question 4
• Crack down on dangerous unhoused people. Compassion is not letting
people abuse other people and brush it off as mental illness.
• Clean up medians/plant natives. The city looks messy. I think this could
be partly accomplished with volunteers, I would certainly volunteer (and I
do this in my own neighborhood already)
• More community outreach and involvement. Ask the children of SLO
what they want to inherit so they want to come back.
• Already stated above, but I want to clarify. I no longer want to utilize
downtown SLO because of too many terrifying incidents with homeless
men. I specify men because it is never the women. They have screamed
at me and my young daughters, two days ago there was a man yelling at
people and carrying a machete. I called 911 and was asked, “Well is he
swinging it at anyone?” We deserve to feel safe and allowing men,
mentally ill or not, to repeatedly terrorize people is actually abuse. It isn’t
compassionate to allow them to live on the streets with untreated mental
illness. I would like the city to take a much more firm stance on
protecting our parks and community areas. If I were to suddenly act the
way they do I’d be arrested in five minutes. Help should not be a choice. If
these men will not accept treatment they are not allowed to loiter
downtown and in parks. Period.

I am concerned that trees are not seen as the longterm investment of
urban cooling and property value (including making downtown much
cooler and more attractive to residents and visitors. Trees take regular
care and can be troublesome but they are vital.

Question 4
• Keep new buildings in town 3 stories. Don't keep taking away view of
the peaks from everywhere. It is part of the charm and brings in tourists.
• Keep consistency in road design and planning. there are so many
inconsistent changes with bike lanes and round abouts that driving in
town is confusing and dangerous. The new segregated bike paths
downtown are a perfect example. It actually, imo, increases my risk as a
bike rider, as cars turning right into driveways cannot see bikes in the
lane due to parked cars.
• Keep more of a consistent theme in architecture in downtown. It used
to look like a quaint coastal town with old commercial buildings and
victorians. Now it is a hodgepodge of architectual styles that do not
really provide any cohesion.

Question 4
• The homeless suffer from a high % of mental and physical health issues
including drug addiction. There is a smaller % that are just down on their
luck. We need to help the people who are down on their luck with
apartments (not shelters) and the rest with enforced medical care.
• It is ridiculous how much real estate costs in this city. The rules
regarding low income housing for developers is not effective. Housing for
students should be looked into, I don't know the answer but student
housing is one of the main reasons rental costs are so high in this city,
this should be a priority.
• Downtown vitality starts with having businesses that serve the
community. Having more bars or tourist business encourage turnover.
Property owners would rather have their storefronts sit empty than lower
the rates, how to deal with that?
• Downtown parking and traffic is an issue for downtown vitality. Bike
lanes are nice but only a small % of residents will ride bikes. For those
that do, bike theft is an issue. Some suggestions: Free park and ride for
downtown, Safe bike parking, More free motorcycle and scooter parking.
• Lots of homeless downtown and many suffer from mental illness, some
may be dangerous. Many residents feel threatened by these people, we
need to get them off the streets and into a mental care program.

of more lanes if bike traffic doesn't warrant them.

• Downtown Vitality (e.g., continue to improve safety and cleanliness,
invest in infrastructure and maintenance in the Downtown)
• Homelessness (e.g., partner with the County and community-based
organizations to implement programs that prevent and support people
experiencing homelessness, continue City Mobile Crisis Unit and

parks, and other City infrastructure)
• Open Space (e.g., preserve and maintain open space and natural areas)
• Public Safety (e.g., expand Fire/Police services, response for health

Question 4
• Stop housing development that very few can afford!!!!! Encourage
family mobile home communities.
• Since more commercial development is happening ὢ, encourage
developers to solicit IKEA & Old Spaghetti Factory, etc.; businesses that
don’t have a presence anywhere in our country.
• Do not tear down the Adobe to make away for a new parking structure,
figure out a way to build around it!
• Put meters back in, it’s ridiculous to have to walk to feed one of those
other things, especially if, for some strange reason, it’s raining. Adobe to
make away for a new parking structure, figure out a way to build around
it!
• Reduce the rate one pays for parking. I very rarely shop downtown
anymore, I look at it that if the city wants me to shop locally, and the first
two hours should be free everywhere or at least no more than .25 per
hour.

on bike lanes. improve access/exercise. reduce pollution/congestion.
make the town nicer.
• I worry that the only people who participate in politics/surveys like this
are a limited, wealthy sample with free time and strong leanings toward
compassion, agreeableness, and participation, and that this will skew
your sample of responses away from fiscal responsibility and sensible
incremental, measurable improvements.
• If you're going to spend on "compassion"-oriented activities, spend on
kids and education. Don't spend on the loudest adult "activists". There's
a cohort that are now university trained to grab political power in the
name of compassion without actually doing any measurable good.

• Protect iconic view scapes of hillsides from being
degraded/disappearing by new development (ie-massive art structure in
new roundabout at Orcutt & Tank Farm Rd). Have greater sensitivity to
the natural surroundings & understand what type of development would
be incompatible with its surroundings.

pavement that lasts a long time (ie-Sacramento Rd and Tank Farm Rd).
Continuing to patch potholes on these streets don't resolve the overall
poor condition of these roads.

develop/publicize a city map showing where all public charging stations

Question 4
• Maintain "bikeability" *without* diminishing the travel experience of the
other 90% of the population who do not ride bicycles. i.e. Keep roads
safe and drivable for BOTH bikes and cars.
• Make sure parking structures are safe for walking pedestrians. In our
current parking structures, once you get out of your car, you are forced
to walk in the driveways where the cars are. There should be a marked,
designated safe place for pedestrians to walk -- away from vehicles.

Provide the populace with designated safe routes out of the City.
• You are cluttering up the City streets with impediments to escape as
well as ridiculously unsustainable artisanal elements plus bike lanes.
Good luck to those who need to escape the natural disaster via a bike.
• This vulnerable City should provide escape plans for all those here, be it
during the day for work or those who reside here. Safe street routes out
of town should be secured and designated.
• You will ignore this advice no doubt, because you do not consider these
types of events as ever possibly occurring here or assume any personal
responsibility in your official roles for them when they do occur.

• decrease the very large share of funding going directly to Police
department, and perhaps increase funding for mental health workers and
city workers to help enforce businesses breaking the night sky ordinance
(esp. car dealers on LOVR)
• Dramatically increase funding for the arts here in SLO. We have a
unique opportunity to be known as a cultural destination center, and
should lean into this, but it's very difficult for musicians and artists to live
here without support!

• Please eliminate the concrete barriers on Higuera - you call them bike
lanes? They are SO confusing and just create a little chaotic situation.
It just takes away from our "precious" parking spaces and creates
confusion with what was done.
• The City should help invigorate the downtown! Don't allow businesses
with 5 or more locations to be there. Arroyo Grande has that policy and
its worked well for the business climate and owners there. Doesn't the
city care about the retailers downtown???
• Stop raising the rates on Parking and Parking Meters - in fact eliminate
the parking meters.
• Its time to also eliminate the parklettes. They're just an eyesore and
take up precious parking spaces! Their intention was successful but
now its done! Eliminate them!

• Learning, and practicing, climate action correctly. At present the city
ignores the impacts its everyday actions (street paving, bike facility
construction, talk of teariing down a police station and building anew
instead of fixing and expanding, peermitting massive and unnecessary
mature tree removal, etc.) have on climate. The city looks no further than
operational carbon, but ignores everything else. You don't know what
you're doing!!!
• Greater actual environmental protection. At present city's version is hot
air and hypocricy. For example, one needs a categorical devotion to
protecting other species instead of harming them with overuses of open
space.

Question 4
• NPR is cautioning drivers to come to complete stops for Red Lights,
etc. I'd personally like to see more police action regarding persons
driving over the speed limit throughout our community. i.e. South
Street, Broad street
• Install a stop light (and/or round about) at King & South Street - There
is quite an amount of pedestrian traffic taking kids to grammar school,
walking their toddles and dogs.
• Pay more attention to the Community Gardens; not being maintained
nor monitored by City Parks & Red staff! i.e. Meadow Park, etc.
• Please do not use "wood chips" in the garden walk ways - that is a
tripping hazard for people w/mobility & balance issues. Decomposed
Granite would be a suggestion. Surely the City can find a donor

• I think we are reaching a critical point at which we NEED to see
something change about rental prices in SLO. As someone well within the
lower-income bracket, I speak for many when I say it's just a matter of

• Redo the new bike lanes and reduced driving lanes in downtown, and
return it to the common sense traffic configurations as it was before
these absurd constrictive modifications that have been made recently.
• SLO City Planning really needs to think things through before they
make absurd changes. I used to work in civil engineering dealing with
traffic striping and safety, and the Planning Department, at this time,
does not make sense for safety and viability.

Community Recovery to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, prepare for
the impacts of climate change, and develop the local green economy)
• Homelessness (e.g., partner with the County and community-based
organizations to implement programs that prevent and support people
experiencing homelessness, continue City Mobile Crisis Unit and
Community Action Team efforts)
• Infrastructure Maintenance (e.g., maintenance of roads, sidewalks,
parks, and other City infrastructure)
• Open Space (e.g., preserve and maintain open space and natural areas)
Question 4
• All new housing developments need to contribute to paying for
increased traffic infrastructure - (i.e., widening main roads next to
developments)
• All new housing developments need to reduce greenhouse emissions
by building required pocket parks with planting natural landscaping and
trees to be carbon neutral
• All new housing developments need to provide bike paths on all newly
built roads within the housing complex
• The City Council needs to realize that building new homes in San Luis
Obispo does not help homelessness. Rather buildings such as Prado 40
helps homeless individuals.

city park. As of right now, it’s a great place for people to drive vehicles
and pretend they’re rally racing. Don’t get me wrong, it looks like a lot of
fun. It also tracks dirt throughout the streets. We’d really appreciate if
you consider building this park for everyone to enjoy.

• I believe the City should shift resources from police to other community
and alternative agencies. 20% of all calls in 2021 to police pertained to
mental health and 21% related to the unhoused. Other agencies are
better suited to handle these emergences. This is what would make our
community safer.
• Reconsider the $52 million price tag for a new police building. A new
building will not make our community safer.

Question 4
• Housing is a large issue. Issuance of starter homes, townhomes, and
first upgrades need to be more readily available. Inventory of these
homes is not enough to support the migration to San Luis Obispo from
larger cities with higher pay. Local working residents have been priced
out and local permitting is allowing the infrastructure for larger homes
without providing options for local pay bands. This should be a priority if
SLO would like to maintain its community. Otherwise it will be no better
than other exclusive small towns on the coast which most of us choose
not to live on purpose. Don’t make the same mistake in desire for larger
property tax collections on price but build a community people can
afford to live, work, and invest in.

• Housing costs are are too high for people who work in town to live here,
low income housing should be the priority.
• Student are one of the reasons that rentals are so expensive. It's supply
and demand, Cal Poly should have to house more students.
• The homeless suffer from a high % of mental and physical health issues
including drug addiction. There is a smaller % that are just down on their
luck. We need to help the people who are down on their luck with
apartments (not shelters) and the rest with mental health issues get
enforced medical care.
• I walk into downtown almost every day and I see homeless that have
real mental health problems. Many are threatening and I have heard of
attacks, we need a task force to deal with these people and get them the
help that they need.

• Sustainable and Multi-Modal Transportation (e.g., enhance accessible

Question 4
• Address Roads and Bike Lanes so that non motorized mobility needs
are meet. Too many roads in SLO City do not YET confirm to ADA, State
Regulated Mandates for safe Bike Lane infrastructure. Address Bike
Lanes and alternative thurofares for Bike Paths and Bike Lanes that offer
continuity to the outlying developed areas which currently have NO
Protective zones for bikers who do not have the ability to discern safety
within traffic. Ie: Broad Street and South Broad Street Plan and
Engineering of this area has no continuous or safe route for me. Amend
the SLO City Ordinance passed in 1983 to Allow Bicycling on Sidewalks in
areas where State Regulated Improvements are not yet in place. SLO
City Ordinance 3220.10 needs to be amended. I am just 1 person with
Low Vision who can not discern conditions presented within the Road
and its traffic. Roads not yet developed do not offer a safe place for me
to get around as I need to. I can not bike in the very long stretch of road
on Broad Street from Orcutt to Tank Farm Road. I can not use Tank
Farm Road. very long roads that were never developed for Pedestrians
or Bikes are still in the stages of planning . Thus, I need to be able to ride
or walk my bike when I can not put myself on the Road. The amendment
needs to assure safer use for non motorized mobility until a road has
properly addressed an implemented ADA and State Regulations for all
users. . Accessible options to patron businesses, services and our mixed
use communities are still lacking a safe route. When designing Bike
Lanes it is important include ADA Regulations for all. I and many people
with dissabilities have specific mobility concerns that do not make us
safe and decrease our independence and lifestyle. Please amend the SLO
City Ordinance 3220.10 from 1983 to allow discretionary use of biking on
a sidewalk.
• SLO City Bus Transportation is under utilized because the routes are
not frequent and do not provide access for the back and forth necessary.
Evening service and weekend service times schedules at least every 30
minutes at peak times
• Build parking facilities in the outer limits and increase Public
Transportation/trolley and multi modal pathways.
• Create Ordinance to place Passive Use Areas on the upper level of the
Parking Garages. Park like areas are ADA Compliant with the existing
elevators. Brings a holistic unique SLO oppprtunity
• Remove the "in-lieu" and "linkage" fee options from SLO City Plannin.
Need available units on the market meeting income standards for Low
Income and Affordable Housing to rent or for purchase. It is time for SLO
City commit to what they "may" do. It is obvious developers will still
develope in SLO even without an incentive to pay.

Question 4
• Urban Forest - is a part of Climate change - drought and which trees
are best to plant in a changing environment, how to replenish our aging
Urban forest as well as from trees that are dying/removals for
development & other reasons
• Allowing SLO City/County to harvest rain and use gray water systems. -
If we are to maintain drinking water, Ag, the Urban Forest etc we need to
be proactive and think ahead. Be innovative. And Make it affordable if
there are any, if needed, permits from the City. As this really only hurts
the lower class and poor.
• Diversity - environmental injustice... Consult -
https://treeequityscore.org/reports/place/san-luis-obispo-ca/ as a
start.
• Infrastructure - not sure if this is City but we need to think about
outdated Utility i.e. water, sewer. The sewage spill at CMC is
unacceptable. This needs to be addressed. Whether, City, County, State
&/or Fed.
• We have a lot of building spaces that are now empty. i.e Tahoe Joes ...
and others... Get more business to come to SLO, preferable not far right
companies like Hobby Lobby.

Question 4
• in housing development, add serious water use planning. in drought
years, it seems we are using old outdated ideas from 10 years ago
• in working with the homeless issues, add serious mental health help for
many of those who cannot help themselves out of their homeless
situations.
• add more recreational space in residential areas that does not promote
long term homeless campout situations.
• consider using land under the power lines to grow public food gardens
similar to the city gardens around emerson, laurel lane and broad
streets. sprinklers are already in place.
• keep our surroundings agriculturally oriented but use the GLEAN folks
to help collect unsold excess crops before plowing them under.

financial responsibility to help fund child care when they are allowed to
build in a city. SLO doesn't even have incentives for developers to
contribute. This needs to be a priority for our city and its citizens.

I don't know how much it cost us, but it makes zero sense there, is just
more distraction and blocked view for drivers and will eventually be hit by
a speeding car.
• Add more activity opportunities, suggestions: Open batting cages at
Sinsheimer park. Add a dirt bike/mountain biking trail off of Tank Farm
(think like the one in Morro Bay but bigger).
• Stop making it harder to get through town in a car. Remove the
automatic pause between lights. Stop taking away roads while adding
people. Stop allowing people to build without having enough parking.

Question 4
• The city paid for TWO surveys t find out what residents wanted as their
top priorities (and that they were willing to tax themselves for) and the
city just ignored the input.
• Stop trying to manipulate the information that comes out of city hall. if
you were being honest you wouldn't need public relations people.
• The city has arranged it so that residents are the minority in their own
city's goals and activities. Tourism is given priority over resident's needs.
• the city needs to count tourism's VMT- travel to and from the city when
it spends hundreds of thousands of dollars to entice tourists here. To
manipulate the numbers of VMT to only 'travel in the city' is been
dishonest
• Residents wanted open space for the protection of wildlife in their
survey responses and the city has manipulated that to mean, tourism
and recreation events come first.

• Following the priority of safety, there NEEDS to be more street lights in
the neighborhoods around the campus of Cal Poly. I understand the
issue of light pollution, however there are street lights that don’t emit as
much light pollution, yet still function for safety (Hawaii street lights).
This is a serious issue and these dark streets are dangerous. Focusing on
diversity projects or climate projects don’t encourage people to move to
cities, safety does.

• Childcare to be a part of this plan as essential infrastructure. We need
a permanent funding source to make it affordable for families and to help
the industry pay more for their teachers. In many thriving cities,
developers are given part of the financial responsibility to help fund child
care when they are allowed to build in a city. SLO doesn't even have
incentives for developers to contribute. This needs to be a priority for our
city! We need to improve access to quality child care (an absolute
necessity) in slo!

Suggested Guidelines for Council Members
During the Goal-Setting Process
Things to Consider:
1. Encourage advisory boards, community groups and citizens to submit written comments
about desired goals.
2. Invite citizens to participate in Community Forum (Forum) and to listen and learn from
their neighbors. The Community Forum will be held at the Ludwick Center on January
26, 2023 at 6pm.
3. Receive comments from community and acknowledge their input without prematurely
expressing your point of view.
4. Assure the community that you are willing to listen openly to all perspectives.
5. Focus your submission of suggested goals on a short list of key priorities to target City
resources (not to exceed five candidate goals for consideration).
6. Avoid publicizing your submission of suggested goals. Let staff compile your
submissions verbatim into a composite list of goals by category without identification of
who made each suggestion. This enables you to see the whole picture.
7. Give yourself flexibility by not publicly taking positions in advance of the February 11,
2023 Council Goal-Setting Workshop.
8. Use this process as a way to learn from citizens and Council colleagues about what’s
important.
9. Explore areas where the Council can come together for positive action.
10. Recognize that this is an important step, but only the first step, in the planning and
budgeting for the next two years and balancing limited resources.
Page 439 of 748
Council Member Candidate Major City Goals
Please prepare up to 5 candidates for Major City Goals below and submit them to the City Clerk
by 9:00 a.m., February 7, 2023. Since the Council will identify connections between the use of
Local Revenue Measure revenues and Major City Goals, please note which suggestions address
Local Revenue Measure priorities. Finance will then compile a verbatim, composite list by topic
without identifying who submitted the particular statements. Please refrain from releasing your
personal list so that each Council member has flexibility to review all of the submissions and
discuss them at the Council Goal-Setting Workshop before staking a position.
Page 440 of 748
Suggestions for Changes in Other Programs and Services
Please provide ideas about possible changes in other programs and services to fund desired
goals. Please submit them to the City Clerk by 9:00 a.m., February 7, 2023. Finance will then
compile a verbatim, composite list by topic without identifying who submitted the particular
statements. Please refrain from releasing your personal list so that each Council member has
flexibility to review all of the submissions and discuss them at the Council Goal-Setting
Workshop before taking a position.

Budget Policies
FINANCIAL PLAN PURPOSE AND ORGANIZATION
A. Financial Plan Objectives. Through its Financial Plan, the City will link resources with results by:
1. Identifying community needs for essential services.
2. Organizing the programs required to provide these essential services.
3. Establishing program policies and goals, which define the nature and level of program services required.
4. Identifying activities performed in delivering program services.
5. Proposing objectives for improving the delivery of program services.
6. Integrate climate risk and climate action considerations throughout all financial decisions.
7. Integrate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) considerations throughout all financial decisions.
8. Identifying and appropriating the resources required to perform program activities and accomplish
program objectives.
9. Setting standards to measure and evaluate the:
a. Output of program activities.
b. Accomplishment of program objectives.
c. Expenditure of program appropriations.
B. Two-Year Budget. Following the City's favorable experience, the City will continue using a two-year financial
plan, emphasizing long-range planning and effective program management. The benefits identified when the
City's first two-year plan was prepared for 1983-85 continue to be realized:
1. Reinforcing the importance of long-range (“strategic”) planning in managing the City's fiscal affairs.
2. Concentrating on developing and budgeting for the accomplishment of significant goals and objectives.
3. Establishing realistic timeframes for achieving goals and objectives.
4. Creating a pro-active budget that provides for stable operations and assures the City's long-term fiscal
health.
5. Promoting more orderly spending patterns.
6. Reducing the amount of time and resources allocated to preparing annual budgets.
C. Measurable Objectives. The two-year financial plan will establish measurable program and performance
objectives and allow reasonable time to accomplish those objectives.
D. Second Year Budget. Before the beginning of the second year of the two-year cycle, the Council will review
progress during the first year and approve appropriations for the second fiscal year.
E. Operating Carryover. Operating program appropriations not spent during the first fiscal year may be carried
over for specific purposes into the second fiscal year with the approval of the City Manager.
Page 445 of 748
Attachment F
F. Goal Status Reports. The status of major program objectives will be formally reported to the Council on an
ongoing, periodic basis.
G. Mid-Year Budget Reviews. The Council will formally review the City’s fiscal condition, and amend
appropriations if necessary, six months after the beginning of each fiscal year.
LONG - TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING
A. Balanced Budget. The City will maintain a balanced budget over the two-year period of the Financial Plan. This
means that:
1. Operating revenues must fully cover operating expenditures, including debt service.
2. Ending fund balance (or working capital in the enterprise funds) must meet minimum policy levels. For
the general and enterprise funds, this level has been established at 20% of operating expenditures.
Additionally, it includes the revenue and rate stabilization reserves as set forth in the City’s fiscal policies
under the Fund Balances and Reserves section.
3. Under this policy, it is allowable for total expenditures to exceed revenues in a given year; however, in
this situation, beginning fund balance can only be used to fund capital improvement plan projects, or
other “one-time,” non-recurring expenditures.
B. Long-Term Liabilities and Maintenance of Infrastructure. The City will give priority to applying unassigned
fund-balance due to one-time expenditure savings or one-time increase in revenue to pay down long-term
unfunded liabilities and invest in infrastructure and equipment.
C. Consideration of Climate Risk and Climate Action. The City is aware of the increasingly severe and frequent
natural, economic, and social disruptions presented by a rapidly changing climate. The City is also aware of the
financial benefits (e.g., reduced operational costs, prudent asset management, access to green bonds, etc.) of
managing climate risk and orienting towards a carbon neutral municipal operations and community. The City will
include climate risk and climate action considerations in its long-term financial planning.
D. Consideration of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). On June 18th, 2020, the City Council took action to
affirm racism as a public health crisis and committed to making San Luis Obispo a welcoming, inclusive, and safe
community for everyone (R-11132). The City Council also set a vision of a community with core values of diversity
and inclusivity in the adoption of its 2019-21 Major City Goals. The City is committed to supporting diversity,
equity, and inclusion in is operations and in the community. The City will include DEI consideratio ns in its long-
term financial planning. Error! Bookmark not defined.
E. Revenue Stabilization Reserve – General Fund. As outlined in the City’s Fund Balance and Reserve
policy, the City Council can activate a Revenue Stabilization Reserve in its General Fund to counteract
any adverse revenue forecast during a period of economic uncertainties pertaining to the City’s largest
tax revenue sources. For the 2023-25 Financial Plan, this reserve has been set at $2 million and is
included in the long-term forecast.
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND BUDGET ADMINISTRATION
A. Annual Reporting. The City will prepare annual financial statements as follows:
1. In accordance with Charter requirements, the City will contract for an annual audit by a qualified
independent certified public accountant. The City will strive for an unqualified auditors’ opinion.
Page 446 of 748
Attachment F
2. The City will use generally accepted accounting principles in preparing its annual financial statements and
will strive to meet the requirements of the GFOA’s Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting program.
3. The City will issue audited financial statements within 180 days after year-end.
B. Interim Reporting. The City will prepare and issue timely interim reports on the City’s fiscal status to the
Council and staff. This includes on-line access to the City’s financial management system by City staff; monthly
reports to program managers; more formal quarterly reports to the Council and Department Heads; mid-year
budget reviews; and interim annual reports.
C. Budget Administration. As set forth in the City Charter, the Council may amend or supplement the budget at
any time after its adoption by majority vote of the Council members. The City Manager has the authority to
make administrative adjustments to the budget as long as those changes will not have a significant policy
impact nor affect budgeted year-end fund balances.
D. Development Services Revenue. The City Manager may allocate or designate 75% of over -realized
Development Services revenues exceeding adopted budget for the current fiscal year for temporary
Development Services expenditures for the purpose of timely processing of development permit applications
in the current fiscal year or throughout life of applicable projects. Any and all City Manager authorized
allocations and funds set aside in a designation for future use, shall be reported to the Council on a semi-
annual basis.

Section 1. GENERAL REVENUE MANAGEMENT
A. Diversified and Stable Base. The City will seek to maintain a diversified and stable revenue base to
protect it from short-term fluctuations in any one revenue source.
B. Long-Range Focus. To emphasize and facilitate long-range financial planning, the City will maintain
current projections of revenues for the succeeding five years.
C. Current Revenues for Current Uses. The City will make all current expenditures with current
revenues, avoiding procedures that balance current budgets by postponing needed expenditures,
accruing future revenues, or rolling over short-term debt.
D. Interfund Transfers and Loans. In order to achieve important public policy goals, the City has
established various special revenue, capital project, debt service and enterprise funds to account for
revenues whose use should be restricted to certain activities. Accordingly, each fund exists as a
separate financing entity from other funds, with its own revenue sources, expenditures and fund
equity.
Any transfers between funds for operating purposes are clearly set forth in the Financial Plan, and
can only be made by the Finance Director in accordance with the adopted budget. These operating
transfers, under which financial resources are transferred from one fund to another, are distinctly
different from interfund borrowings, which are usually made for temporary cash flow reasons, and
are not intended to result in a transfer of financial resources by the end of the fiscal year.
In summary, interfund transfers result in a change in fund equity; interfund borrowings do not, as
the intent is to repay the loan in the near term.
From time to time, interfund borrowings may be appropriate; however, these are subject to the
following criteria in ensuring that the fiduciary purpose of the fund is met:
1. The Finance Director is authorized to approve temporary interfund borrowings for cash flow
purposes whenever the cash shortfall is expected to be resolved within 45 days. The most
common use of interfund borrowing under this circumstance is for grant programs like the
Community Development Block Grant, where costs are incurred before drawdowns are initiated
and received. However, receipt of funds is typically received shortly after the request for funds
has been made.
2. Any other interfund borrowings for cash flow or other purposes require case-by-case approval
by the Council.
3. Any transfers between funds where reimbursement is not expected within one fiscal year shall
not be recorded as interfund borrowings; they shall be recorded as interfund operating transfers
that affect equity by moving financial resources from one fund to another.

Section 2. USER FEE COST RECOVERY GOALS
A. Ongoing Review
Fees will be reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis to ensure that they keep pace with changes
in the cost-of-living as well as changes in methods or levels of service delivery.
In implementing this goal, a comprehensive analysis of City costs and fees should be made at least
every five years. In the interim, fees will be adjusted by annual changes in the Consumer Price Index.
Fees may be adjusted during this interim period based on supplemental analysis whenever there
have been significant changes in the method, level or cost of service delivery.
B. User Fee Cost Recovery Levels
In setting user fees and cost recovery levels, the following factors will be considered:
1. Community-Wide Versus Special Benefit. The level of user fee cost recovery should consider the
community-wide versus special service nature of the program or activity. The use of general -
purpose revenues is appropriate for community-wide services, while user fees are appropriate
for services that are of special benefit to easily identified individuals or groups.
2. Service Recipient Versus Service Driver. After considering community-wide versus special
benefit of the service, the concept of service recipient versus service driver should also be
considered. For example, it could be argued that the applicant is not the beneficiary of the City's
development review efforts: the community is the primary beneficiary. However, the applicant
is the driver of development review costs, and as such, cost recovery from the applicant is
appropriate.
3. Effect of Pricing on the Demand for Services. The level of cost recovery and related pricing of
services can significantly affect the demand and subsequent level of services provided. At full
cost recovery, this has the specific advantage of ensuring that the City is providing services for
which there is genuinely a market that is not overly-stimulated by artificially low prices.
Conversely, high levels of cost recovery will negatively impact the delivery of services to lower
income groups. This negative feature is especially pronounced, and works against public policy,
if the services are specifically targeted to low income groups.
4. Feasibility of Collection and Recovery. Although it may be determined that a high level of cost
recovery may be appropriate for specific services, it may be impractical or too costly to establish
a system to identify and charge the user. Accordingly, the feasibility of assessing and collecting
charges should also be considered in developing user fees, especially if significant program costs
are intended to be financed from that source.
C. Factors Favoring Low Cost Recovery Levels
Very low-cost recovery levels are appropriate under the following circumstances:
Page 449 of 748
Attachment F
1. There is no intended relationship between the amount paid and the benefit received. Almost all
"social service" programs fall into this category as it is expected that one group will subsidize
another.
2. Collecting fees is not cost-effective or will significantly impact the efficient delivery of the service.
3. There is no intent to limit the use of (or entitlement to) the service. Again, most "social service"
programs fit into this category as well as many public safety (police and fire) emergency response
services. Historically, access to neighborhood and community parks would also fit into this
category.
4. The service is non-recurring, generally delivered on a "peak demand" or emergency basis, cannot
reasonably be planned for on an individual basis, and is not readily available from a private sector
source. Many public safety services also fall into this category.
5. Collecting fees would discourage compliance with regulatory requirements and adherence is
primarily self-identified, and as such, failure to comply would not be readily detected by the City.
Many small-scale licenses and permits might fall into this category.
D. Factors Favoring High Cost Recovery Levels
The use of service charges as a major source of funding service levels is especially appropriate
under the following circumstances:
1. The service is similar to services provided through the private sector.
2. Other private or public sector alternatives could or do exist for the delivery of the service.
3. For equity or demand management purposes, it is intended that there be a direct relationship
between the amount paid and the level and cost of the service received.
4. The use of the service is specifically discouraged. Police responses to disturbances or false alarms
might fall into this category.
5. The service is regulatory in nature and voluntary compliance is not expected to be the primary
method of detecting failure to meet regulatory requirements. Building permit, plan checks, and
subdivision review fees for large projects would fall into this category.
E. General Concepts Regarding the Use of Service Charges
The following general concepts will be used in developing and implementing service charges:
1. Revenues should not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service.
2. Cost recovery goals should be based on the total cost of delivering the service, including direct
costs, departmental administration costs and organization-wide support costs such as
accounting, personnel, information technology, legal services, fleet maintenance and insurance.
Page 450 of 748
Attachment F
3. The method of assessing and collecting fees should be as simple as possible in order to reduce
the administrative cost of collection.
4. Rate structures should be sensitive to the "market" for similar services as well as to smaller,
infrequent users of the service.
5. A unified approach should be used in determining cost recovery levels for various programs
based on the factors discussed above.
F. Low Cost-Recovery Services
Based on the criteria discussed above, the following types of services should have very low-cost
recovery goals. In selected circumstances, there may be specific activities within the broad scope of
services provided that should have user charges associated with them. However, the primary source
of funding for the operation as a whole should be general-purpose revenues, not user fees.
1. Delivering public safety emergency response services such as police patrol services and fire
suppression.
2. Maintaining and developing public facilities that are provided on a uniform, community-wide
basis such as streets, parks and general-purpose buildings.
3. Providing social service programs and economic development activities.
G. Recreation Programs
The following cost recovery policies apply to the City's recreation programs:
1. Cost recovery for activities directed to adults should be relatively high.
2. Cost recovery for activities directed to youth and seniors should be relatively low. In those
circumstances where services are similar to those provided in the private sector, cost recovery
levels should be higher.
Although ability to pay may not be a concern for all youth and senior participants, these are
desired program activities, and the cost of determining need may be greater than the cost of
providing a uniform service fee structure to all participants. Further, there is a community-wide
benefit in encouraging high-levels of participation in youth and senior recreation activities
regardless of financial status.
3. Cost recovery goals for recreation activities are set as follows:
High-Range Cost Recovery Activities - (60% to 100%)
a. Adult athletics
Page 451 of 748
Attachment F
b. Banner permit applications
c. Child care services
d. Facility rentals (indoor and outdoor; excludes use of facilities for internal City uses)
Mid-Range Cost Recovery Activities - (30% to 60%)
e. Triathlon
f. Golf
g. Summer and Spring Break Camps
h. Classes
i. Major commercial film permit applications
Low-Range Cost Recovery Activities- (0 to 30%)
j. Aquatics
k. Community gardens
l. Junior Ranger camp
m. Minor commercial film permit applications
n. Skate park
o. Parks and Recreation sponsored events (except for Triathlon)
p. Youth sports
q. Teen services
r. Senior/boomer services
4. For cost recovery activities of less than 100%, there should be a differential in rates between
residents and non-residents. However, the Director of Parks and Recreation is authorized to
reduce or eliminate non-resident fee differentials when it can be demonstrated that:
a. The fee is reducing attendance.
b. And there are no appreciable expenditure savings from the reduced attendance.
5. Charges will be assessed for use of rooms, pools, gymnasiums, ball fields, special-use areas, and
recreation equipment for activities not sponsored or co-sponsored by the City. Such charges will
generally conform to the fee guidelines described above. However, the Director of Parks and
Recreation is authorized to charge fees that are closer to full cost recovery for facilities that are
heavily used at peak times and include a majority of non-resident users.
6. A vendor charge of at least 10 percent of gross income will be assessed from individuals or
organizations using City facilities for moneymaking activities.
7. Director of Parks and Recreation is authorized to offer reduced fees such as introductory rates,
family discounts and coupon discounts on a pilot basis (not to exceed 18 months) to promote
new recreation programs or resurrect existing ones.
8. The Parks and Recreation Department will consider waiving fees only when the City Manager
determines in writing that an undue hardship exists.
Page 452 of 748
Attachment F
H. Development Review Programs
The following cost recovery policies apply to the development review programs:
1. Services provided under this category include:
a. Planning (planned development permits, tentative tract and parcel maps, re-zonings, general
plan amendments, variances, use permits).
b. Building and safety (building permits, structural plan checks, inspections).
c. Engineering (public improvement plan checks, inspections, subdivision requirements,
encroachments).
d. Fire plan check.
2. Cost recovery for these services should generally be very high. In most instances, the City's cost
recovery goal should be 100%.
3. However, in charging high cost recovery levels, the City needs to clearly establish and articulate
standards for its performance in reviewing developer applications to ensure that there is “value
for cost.”
4. Building Permit Plan Check Services – The City of San Luis Obispo offers building permit plan
check services through consultants at a set price, not to exceed 65% of the City’s fee for the
service. Building Permit Plan Check Services are offered by the City on a 100% cost-recovery basis,
and the service is provided after the fee is paid in full. As a result, the Finance Director is
authorized to make appropriations from the related revenue account to cover the cost of the
services provided.
I. Comparability with Other Communities
In setting user fees, the City will consider fees charged by other agencies in accordance with the
following criteria:
1. Surveying the comparability of the City's fees to other communities provides useful background
information in setting fees for several reasons:
a. They reflect the "market" for these fees and can assist in assessing the reasonableness of San
Luis Obispo’s fees.
b. If prudently analyzed, they can serve as a benchmark for how cost-effectively San Luis Obispo
provides its services.
2. However, fee surveys should never be the sole or primary criteria in setting City fees as there are
many factors that affect how and why other communities have set their fees at their levels. For
example:
Page 453 of 748
Attachment F
a. What level of cost recovery is their fee intended to achieve compared with our cost recovery
objectives?
b. What costs have been considered in computing the fees?
c. When was the last time that their fees were comprehensively evaluated?
d. What level of service do they provide compared with our service or performance standards?
e. Is their rate structure significantly different than ours and what is it intended to achieve?
3. These can be very difficult questions to address in fairly evaluating fees among different
communities. As such, the comparability of our fees to other communities should be one factor
among many that is considered in setting City fees.
Page 454 of 748
Attachment F
Section 3. ENTERPRISE FUND FEES AND RATES
A. Water, Sewer, and Parking. The City will set fees and rates at levels which fully cover the total direct
and indirect costs—including operations, capital outlay, and debt service—of the following
enterprise programs: water, sewer, and parking. For Water and Sewer, the rate setting process will
be in accordance with Proposition 218 and its notification requirements.
B. Transit. Based on targets set under the Transportation Development Act, the City will strive to cover
at least twenty percent of transit operating costs with fare revenues.
C. Ongoing Rate Review. The City will review and adjust enterprise fees and rate structures as required
to ensure that they remain appropriate and equitable.
D. Cost of Service Fees. The City will treat the water and sewer funds in the same manner as if they
were privately owned and operated. This means assessing reasonable cost of service fees in fully
recovering service costs.
The purpose of the cost of service fee is reasonable cost recovery for the use of the City’s services
such as street rights-of-way and public safety. The appropriateness of charging the water and sewer
fund a reasonable cost of service fee for the use of the City streets is further supported by the results
of studies from Arizona, California, Ohio, and Vermont which concluded that the leading cause of
street resurfacing and reconstruction is street cuts and trenching for Utilities.

Attachment F
Section 4. REVENUE DISTRIBUTION
The Council recognizes that generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments
discourage the “earmarking” of General Fund revenues, and accordingly, the practice of designating
General Fund revenues for specific programs should be minimized in the City's management of its fiscal
affairs. Approval of the following revenue distribution policies does not prevent the Council from
directing General Fund resources to other functions and programs as necessary.
A. Property Taxes. With the passage of Proposition 13 on June 6, 1978, California cities no longer can
set their own property tax rates. In addition to limiting annual increases in market value, placing a
ceiling on voter-approved indebtedness, and redefining assessed valuations, Proposition 13
established a maximum county-wide levy for general revenue purposes of 1% of market value. Under
subsequent state legislation, which adopted formulas for the distribution of this countywide levy,
the City now receives a percentage of total property tax revenues collected countywide as
determined by the State and administered by the County Auditor-Controller. The City receives 14.9%
of each dollar collected in property tax after allocations to school districts.
Accordingly, while property revenues are often thought of as local revenue sources, in essence they
are State revenue sources, since the State controls their use and allocation.
With the adoption of a Charter revision in November 1996, which removed provisions that were in
conflict with Proposition 13 relating to the setting of property tax revenues between various funds,
all property tax revenues are now accounted for in the General Fund.
B. Gasoline Tax Subventions. All gasoline tax revenues (which are restricted by the State for street -
related purposes) will be used for maintenance activities. Since the City's total expenditures for gas
tax eligible programs and projects are much greater than this revenue source, op erating transfers
will be made from the gas tax fund to the General Fund for this purpose. This approach significantly
reduces the accounting efforts required to meet State reporting requirements.
C. Transportation Development Act (TDA) Revenues. All TDA revenues will be allocated to alternative
transportation programs, including regional and municipal transit systems, bikeway improvements,
and other programs or projects designed to reduce automobile usage. Because TDA revenues will
not be allocated for street purposes, it is expected that alternative transportation programs (in
conjunction with other state or federal grants for this purpose) will be self-supporting from TDA
revenues.
D. Parking Fines. All parking fine revenues will be allocated to the parking fund, except for those
collected by Police staff (who are funded by the General Fund) in implementing neighborhood
wellness programs.

Section 5. INVESTMENTS
Link to the City’s Investment Policy & Management Plan
POLICY STATEMENT
The City of San Luis Obispo shall invest public funds in such a manner as to
comply with state and local laws; ensure prudent money management;
provide for daily cash flow requirements; and meet the objectives of the
Investment Policy & Management Plan in priority order of Safety, Liquidity,
and Return on Investment.
The purpose of the Investment Policy and Management Plan is to establish
policies, practices, and procedures to be used in administering the City's
investment portfolio in accordance with the City's Statement of Investment
policy.
PRIMARY INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The City's primary investment objective is to achieve a reasonable rate of
return on public funds while minimizing the potential for capital losses arising
from market changes or issuer default. Although the generation of revenues through interest earnings
on investments is an appropriate City goal, the primary consideration in the investment of City funds is
capital preservation in the overall portfolio. As such, the City's yield objective is to achieve a reasonable
rate of return on City investments rather than the maximum generation of income, which could expose
the City to unacceptable levels of risk.
In determining individual investment placements, the following factors shall be considered in priority
order: 1) Safety 2) Liquidity 3) Yield – (Return on Investment).

Section 6. APPROPRIATIONS LIMITATION
A. The Council will annually adopt a resolution establishing the City's appropriations limit calculated in
accordance with Article XIII-B of the Constitution of the State of California, Section 7900 of the State
of California Government Code, and any other voter approved amendments or state legislation that
affect the City's appropriations limit.
B. The supporting documentation used in calculating the City's appropriations limit and projected
appropriations subject to the limit will be available for public and Council review at least 10 days
before Council consideration of a resolution to adopt an appropriations limit. The Council will
generally consider this resolution in connection with final approval of the budget.
C. The City will strive to develop revenue sources, both new and existing, which are considered non-tax
proceeds in calculating its appropriations subject to limitation.
D. The City will annually review user fees and charges and report to the Council the amount of program
subsidy, if any, that is being provided by the General or Enterprise Funds.
E. The City will actively support legislation or initiatives sponsored or approved by League of California
Cities which would modify Article XIII-B of the Constitution in a manner which would allow the City
to retain projected tax revenues resulting from growth in the local economy for use as determined
by the Council.
F. The City will seek voter approval to amend its appropriation limit at such time that tax proceeds are
in excess of allowable limits.

Section 7. FUND BALANCE AND RESERVES
Link to the City’s Fund Balance & Reserve Policy
This policy establishes guidelines and procedures for allocating and reporting the City’s fund balances in
the financial statements in accordance with Governmental Accounting
Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54 and as committed by the City
Council effective beginning fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.
Additionally, the policy establishes the City’s reserve levels to address
protection from risk and unexpected situation that require financial
resources. The City of San Luis Obispo faces risks such as revenue shortfalls
during recessions and losses from extreme events, like earthquakes, wildland
fires, flooding, and other natural disasters. Prudent reserve levels help make
sure that the City of San Luis Obispo can respond quickly and decisively to
those events. Reserves also support vital public services during revenue
declines. As such, the City’s reserve policy describes how much the City will
retain in the reserves and stipulates activation and acceptable uses of the
reserves.
Since reserve levels need to be considered when establishing fund balances, both are addressed within
this policy.
Page 459 of 748
Attachment F
Section 8. CalPERS & UNFUNDED LIABILITIES
With the 2018-19 Financial Plan Supplement, the City adopted its Fiscal Health Response Plan (FHRP); a
three-year plan to address the City’s escalating unfunded pension liability stemming from the CalPERS’
changes under the Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act (PEBRA). PEBRA prescribe that a member
agency’s pension liability had to be paid down over a 30-year period which triggered annually escalating
contributions through 2045.
The FHRP therefore targeted a realignment of revenues and expenditures to allow for additional
payments to CalPERS, negotiated additional contributions toward pension payments for employee
groups, and prioritized the use of unassigned fund balance once the City’s Financial Statements had been
audited and accepted by the City Council. The goal of this realignment was the payment of the UFL over
a reduced timeline therefore securing pensions for City employees and saving the City considerable
interest payments.
Given the long-term ramifications of the deliverables put in motion through the FHRP, this section
addresses the City’s long-term commitment to payment of the UFL, annual additional discretionary
payments (ADPs), and the needed prioritization to hold the shortened timeline.
1. The City sets the following prioritization of unassigned General Fund balance:
a. Additional discretionary payments to CalPERS
a.b. Infrastructure investments
c. Emerging Health and Safety needs of the community
2. The City commits to ADPs to CalPERS and adding an annual inflator equal to increases in payroll
whenever CalPERS reaches its discount rate or larger rates of return based on what is presented
in the latest five-year forecast.
3. Whenever CalPERS does not reach its adopted discount rate, the City commits to first use any
unassigned fund balance to counteract the investment loss CalPERS experienced. It will add the
loss to the committed ADP as outlined above to safeguard the investment already made toward
the early repayment of the UFL.

Section 9. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
A. CIP Projects: $25,000 or More. Construction projects which cost $25,000 or more will be included in the
CIP and are accounted for the in Capital Outlay Fund. Minor capital outlays of less than $25,000 will be
included with the operating program budgets.
B. CIP Purpose. The purpose of the CIP is to systematically plan, schedule, and finance capital projects to
ensure cost-effectiveness as well as conformance with established policies. The CIP is as five-year plan
organized into the same functional groupings used for the operating programs. The CIP will reflect a
balance between capital replacement projects that repair, replace, or enhance existing facilities,
equipment or infrastructure; and capital facility projects that significantly expand or add to the City’s
existing fixed assets.
C. CIP Project Type. Projects are categorized by type, including:
1. Asset Maintenance – Reoccurring and annual needs that maintain existing assets.
2. Asset Replacement – Periodically reoccurring and/or annual needs that replace existing assets with
similar assets.
3. New Asset – Periodic needs to expand the number of assets that serve the community.
Asset maintenance projects and costs should be considered before recommending funding for projects
to replace existing assets or construct new assets. Asset Maintenance projects are not ranked by the CIP
Review Committee.
D. CIP Project, Project Manager. Every CIP project will have a “project manager” who will be responsible
for managing the project scope, budget, and timeline. Project managers will be responsible for
ensuring that prepare the project proposal, ensure that required phases are completed on schedule,
authorizing authorize all project expenditures, ensure that required phases are completed on schedule,
ensuringe that all regulations and laws are observed, regularly communicating with project proponents
and other stakeholders, andand periodically reporting on project status. Project management will
primarily be performed by staff in the Public Works Department, but staff from other departments may
also manage projects.
E. CIP Review Committee. The CIP Review Committee provides governance of the CIP by evaluating and
prioritizing capital projects based upon an established set of criteria to ensure alignment with Major City
Goals, the General Plan, strategic growth objectives and needs for services provided within the City. The
Assistant City Manager serves as Chair of the Committee and the Director of Public Works is Vice Chair;
other members include: Deputy City Manager, Director of Community Development, Director of
Finance, Director of Parks and Recreation, Director of Utilities, and a public safety department head
(rotating between the Fire Chief and Police Chief). The CIP Administrative Manager, City Engineer and
Principal Budget Analyst provide staff support to the Committee. The Committee is responsible for:
1. Assessing the City’s fiscal and staff capacity to deliver projects so that the recommended CIP
represents what can realistically be accomplished; and
2. Recommending to the City Manager the projects and associated budgets that should be included in
the biennial financial plan; and
3. Considering requests for new projects that may be requested outside of financial plan development
to address emergent needs; and
4. Evaluating the re-prioritization of projects as needs and conditions change in order to ensure
consistency with project evaluation criteria, ability to deliver projects, and City priorities.
Page 461 of 748
Attachment F
C. Headed by the City Manager or designee, this Committee will review project proposals, determine
project phasing, recommend project managers, review and evaluate the draft CIP budget document, and
report CIP project progress on an ongoing basis.
F. Project Request Forms. The CIP Review Committee requires that departments submitting a request for
a project to be funded in the Five-Year CIP cycle submit a Project Request Form (PRF) to formally
document the project request. The PRF is intended to ensure that the Committee has necessary
information to evaluate and prioritize projects for funding. In addition to completion of the PRF, the
Committee may also request a presentation from the requesting department to gather additional
information. The content of the PRF shall include, but not be limited to the following:
1. Proposed project title
2. Proponent (Client) department
3. Proposed managing department or division
4. Project function
5. Project type
6. City priority alignment
7. Project scope
8. Proposed project schedule/delivery
9. Estimated project budget and funding source(s) (if any)
G. Creation of Projects. New projects shall only be considered during development of the biennial
financial plan. Requests for projects outside of the financial plan development process will be
considered only if they are intended to address an emergency need. Staff may create new projects as
directed by the City Council at any point.
D.H. CIP Phases. The CIP will emphasize project planning, with projects progressing through at least two
and up to ten of the following phases:
1. Designate. Appropriates funds based on projects designated for funding by the Council through
adoption of the Financial Plan.
2. Study. Concept design, site selection, feasibility analysis, schematic design, environmental
determination, property appraisals, scheduling, grant application, grant approval, specification
preparation for equipment purchases.
3. Environmental Review. EIR preparation, other environmental studies.
4. Real Property Acquisitions. Property acquisition for projects, if necessary.
5. Site Preparation. Demolition, hazardous materials abatements, other pre‐construction work.
6. Design. Final design, plan and specification preparation and construction cost estimation.
7. Construction. Construction contracts.
8. Construction Management. Contract project management and inspection, soils and material tests,
other support services during construction.
9. Equipment Acquisitions. Vehicles, heavy machinery, computers, office furnishings, other
equipment items acquired and installed independently from construction contracts.
10. Debt Service. Installment payments of principal and interest for completed projects funded
through debt financings. Expenditures for this project phase are included in the Debt Service
section of the Financial Plan. Generally, it will become more difficult for a project to move from one
Page 462 of 748
Attachment F
phase to the next. As such, more projects will be studied than will be designed, and more projects
will be designed than will be constructed or purchased during the term of the CIP.
E.I. CIP Appropriation. The City’s annual CIP appropriation for study, design, acquisition and/or
construction is based on the projects designated by the Council through adoption of the Financial Plan.
Adoption of the Financial Plan CIP appropriation does not automatically authorize funding for specific
project phases. This authorization generally occurs only after the preceding project phase has been
completed and approved by the Council and costs for the succeeding phases have been fully developed.
Accordingly, project appropriations are generally made when contracts are awarded. If project costs at
the time of bid award are less than the budgeted amount, the balance will be unappropriated and
returned to fund balance or allocated to another project. If project costs at the time of bid award are
greater than budget amounts, five basic options are available:
1. Eliminate the project.
2. Defer the project for consideration to the next Financial Plan period.
3. Rescope or change the phasing of the project to meet the existing budget.
4. Transfer funding from another specified, lower priority project.
5. Appropriate additional resources as necessary from fund balance.
J. Cost of CIP Program Management and Project Delivery. The Capital budget shall reflect the projected
cost of staff time within the Public Works Department spent on management of the CIP and delivery of
projects budgeted in the Capital budget.
K. CIP Budget Carryover. Appropriations for CIP projects lapse three years after budget adoption. Projects
which lapse from lack of project account appropriations may be resubmitted for inclusion in a
subsequent CIP. Project accounts, which have been appropriated, will not lapse until completion of the
project phase.
F.L. CIP Reporting. Staff shall publish reports on the progress of delivering the Capital Improvement Plan at
least quarterly, as part of Quarterly Budget Reports provided to the City Council. These reports shall
include a summary of project budgets, a status update on projects in progress, and a listing of projects
completed within the quarter.
G. Program Objectives. Project phases will be listed as objectives in the program narratives of the
programs, which manage the projects.
H.M. Public Art. CIP projects will be evaluated during the budget process and prior to each phase for
conformance with the City's public art policy, which generally requires that 1% of eligible project
construction costs be set aside for public art. Excluded from this requirement are underground projects,
utility infrastructure projects, funding from outside agencies, and costs other than construction such as
study, environmental review, design, site preparation, land acquisition and equipment purchases. It is
generally preferred that public art be incorporated directly into the project, but this is not practical or
desirable for all projects; in this case, an in‐lieu contribution to public art will be made. To ensure that
funds are adequately budgeted for this purpose regardless of whether public art will be directly
incorporated into the project, funds for public art will be identified separately in the CIP.
Page 463 of 748
Attachment F
I.N. General Plan Consistency Review. The Planning Commission will review the Preliminary CIP for
consistency with the General Plan and provide its findings to the Council prior to adoption.
J.O. Climate Action Plan Implementation. Council adopted Resolution No. 11159 (2020 Series) establishes
a goal of community-wide carbon neutrality by 2035 and municipal operations carbon neutrality by
2030. The City’s Capital Improvement Program is a critical implementation tool, and every CIP will be
evaluated for alignment with these climate goals. Examples of ways projects or project components can
align the with goals include (but are not limited to):
1. Elimination or reduction of vehicle miles traveled (e.g., active transportation and transit
improvements),
2. Elimination or reduction of fossil fueled appliances, vehicles, and equipment,
3. Reduced energy consumption (e.g., efficient mechanical equipment, efficient lighting, etc.)
4. Carbon storage through tree planting or landscape management, and
5. Solid waste/ green waste diversion
K. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. In 2020 the City Council declared diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as
integral aspects of their City Mission and Meta Goal, ensuring that through policies, programs, and
projects, San Luis Obispo will foster a community that is welcoming, equitable, safe and inclusive for all.
The City’s Capital Improvement Program is a critical component of achieving these goals by ensuring that
capital projects are designed to be accessible, inclusive, and safe for diverse populations. Capital
Improvement Projects can advance diversity, equity, through project design and accessibility, diverse
representation in art components of projects, ensuring there are programs to subsize costs for low -
income communities to access the project, providing opportunities to diverse populations and
stakeholders for community input, including DEI as a priority in RFPs or project scope, and ensuring the
project does not disproportionately burden one community over another.

Section 10. CAPITAL FINANCING AND DEBT MANAGEMENT
Link to the City’s Capital Financing & Debt Management Policy
POLICY STATEMENT
The City of San Luis Obispo (City) will maintain, at all times, debt management policies that are fiscally
prudent, consistent with State and Federal law, and reflective of the most opportune
financing strategies to deliver on the needs and goals of the community and the City
organization. The Debt Management Policy establishes objectives, parameters, and
guidelines for responsibly issuing and administering the City’s debt. Prudent
management of the City’s debt program is necessary to achieve cost-effective access
to the capital markets and demonstrate a commitment to long-term financial
planning and sustainability.
DEBT MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES
The policy sets forth key objectives for the City in issuing and administering the City’s
debt, which are to:
• Maintain the City’s sound financial position.
• Minimize debt service and issuance cost.
• Maintain access to cost-effective borrowing.
• Achieve and maintain highest reasonable credit rating.
• Ensure full and timely repayment of debt.
• Maintain full and complete financial disclosure and reporting including voluntary disclosures.
• Ensure compliance with State and Federal laws and regulations.
SCOPE
This policy establishes the framework for when the City of San Luis Obispo should consider issuing debt
and the overall acceptable debt burden. Long-term debt is an effective way to finance capital
improvements by matching the term of the debt with the useful life of the asset being financed. Properly
managed debt provides flexibility in current and future operating budgets and provides the City with the
long-term assets required to deliver services, programs, and public infrastructure to the community. The
City recognizes that effective debt management practices require a comprehensive Debt Management
Policy that details the use of capital debt to support the capital infrastructure in the community while
maintaining a stable and prudent fiscal outlook.

Section 11. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
A. Regular Staffing
1. The budget will fully appropriate the resources needed for authorized regular staffing and will
limit programs to the regular staffing authorized.
2. Regular employees will be the core work force and the preferred means of staffing ongoing, year-
round program activities that should be performed by full-time City employees rather than
independent contractors. The City will strive to provide competitive compensation and benefit
schedules for its authorized regular work force. Each regular employee will:
a. Fill an authorized regular position.
b. Be assigned to an appropriate bargaining unit, unless designated as an unrepresented
management or confidential classification.
c. Receive salary and benefits consistent with labor agreements or other compensation plans.
3. To manage the growth of the regular work force and overall staffing costs, the City will follow
these procedures:
a. The Council will authorize all regular positions.
b. The Human Resources Department will coordinate and approve the hiring of all regular and
supplemental staff.
c. All requests for additional regular positions will include evaluations of:
• The necessity, term and expected results of the proposed activity.
• Staffing and materials costs including salary, benefits, equipment, uniforms, clerical
support and facilities.
• The ability of private industry to provide the proposed service.
• Additional revenues or cost savings, which may be realized.
4. Periodically, and before any request for additional regular positions, programs will be evaluated
to determine if they can be accomplished with fewer regular employees. (See Productivity
Review Policy)
5. Staffing and contract service cost ceilings will limit total expenditures for regular employees,
supplemental staff, and independent contractors hired to provide operating and maintenance
services.
B. Supplemental Staff
1. The hiring of supplemental staff will not be used as an incremental method for expanding the
City's regular work force.
Page 466 of 748
Attachment F
2. Supplemental staff include all employees other than regular employees, elected officials and
volunteers. Supplemental staff include seasonal or occasional employees, employees with
irregular schedules, limited benefit employees, temporary employees, contract employees,
CalPERS retired annuitants, and leased employees. Supplemental staff may work on a full-time
or part-time basis and will generally augment regular City staffing. Supplemental staff may be
used as extra-help during peak workloads, as coverage during extended absences of regular
employees, seasonal workforce, as a means to assess ongoing staffing needs, or as the staffing
method for program delivery that is most effectively staffed using part-time hours to ensure
adequate coverage.
3. The City Manager and Department Heads will encourage the use of supplemental staff rather
than regular employees to meet peak workload requirements, fill interim vacancies, and
accomplish tasks where less than full-time, year-round staffing is required.
Under this guideline, supplemental staff hours will generally not exceed 50% of a regular, full-
time position (1,000 hours annually). There may be limited circumstances where the use of
supplemental staff on an ongoing basis in excess of this target may be appropriate due to unique
programming or staffing requirements. However, any such exceptions must be approved by the
City Manager based on the review and recommendation of the Human Resources Director.
4. Contract employees are defined as supplemental staff with written contracts approved by
Human Resources Director and City Attorney who may receive approved benefits. Contract
employees will generally be used for medium-term (generally between six months and two years)
projects, programs or activities requiring specialized or augmented levels of staffing for a specific
period.
5. Leased employees are employed during short-term, peak workload assignments to be
accomplished using personnel contracted through an outside employment agency (OEA). In
this situation, it is anticipated that City staff will closely monitor the work of leased employees
and minimal training will be required. However, they will always be considered the employees
of the OEA and not the City. All placements through an OEA will be coordinated through the
Human Resources Department and subject to the approval of the Human Resources Director.
The services of contract employees will be discontinued upon completion of the assigned project,
program or activity. Accordingly, contract employees will not be used for services that are
anticipated to be delivered on an ongoing basis and as such, a determination as to the expected need
will be made at the end of each contract term and prior to extending or renewing a contract.
C. Overtime Management
1. Overtime should be used only when necessary and when other alternatives are not feasible or
cost effective.
2. All overtime must be pre-authorized by a department head or delegate unless it is assumed pre-
approved by its nature. For example, overtime that results when an employee is assigned to
standby and/or must respond to an emergency or complete an emergency response.
Page 467 of 748
Attachment F
3. Departmental operating budgets should reflect anticipated annual overtime costs and
departments will regularly monitor overtime use and expenditures.
4. When considering the addition of regular or temporary staffing, the use of overtime as an
alternative will be considered. The department will take into account:
a. The duration that additional staff resources may be needed.
b. The cost of overtime versus the cost of additional staff.
c. The skills and abilities of current staff.
d. Training costs associated with hiring additional staff.
e. The impact of overtime on existing staff.
D. Independent Contractors
Independent contractors are not City employees. They are used in construction of public works
projects and delivery of operating, maintenance or specialized professional services not routinely
performed by City employees. Such services will be provided without close supervision by City staff,
and the required methods, skills and equipment will generally be determined and provided by the
contractor. Contract awards will be guided by the City's purchasing policies and procedures. (See
Contracting for Services Policy)
Page 468 of 748
Attachment F
Section 12. CONTRACTING FOR SERVICES
A. General Policy Guidelines
1. Contracting with the private sector for the delivery of services provides the City with a significant
opportunity for cost containment and productivity enhancements. As such, the City is committed
to using private sector resources in delivering municipal services as a key element in our
continuing efforts to provide cost-effective programs.
2. Private sector contracting approaches under this policy include construction projects,
professional services, outside employment agencies and ongoing operating and maintenance
services.
3. In evaluating the costs of private sector contracts compared with in-house performance of the
service, indirect, direct, and contract administration costs of the City will be identified and
considered.
4. Whenever private sector providers are available and can meet established service levels, they
will be seriously considered as viable service delivery alternatives using the evaluation criteria
outlined below.
5. For programs and activities currently provided by City employees, conversions to contract
services will generally be made through attrition, reassignment or absorption by the contractor.
B. Evaluation Criteria
Within the general policy guidelines stated above, the cost-effectiveness of contract services in
meeting established service levels will be determined on a case-by-case basis using the following
criteria:
1. Is a sufficient private sector market available to competitively deliver this service and assure a
reasonable range of alternative service providers?
2. Can the contract be effectively and efficiently administered?
3. What are the consequences if the contractor fails to perform, and can the contract reasonably
be written to compensate the City for any such damages?
4. Can a private sector contractor better respond to expansions, contractions or special
requirements of the service?
5. Can the work scope be sufficiently defined to ensure that competing proposals can be fairly and
fully evaluated, as well as the contractor's performance after bid award?
6. Does the use of contract services provide us with an opportunity to redefine service levels?
7. Will the contract limit our ability to deliver emergency or other high priority services?
8. Overall, can the City successfully delegate the performance of the service but still retain
accountability and responsibility for its delivery?
Page 469 of 748
Attachment F
Section 13: Productivity
Ensuring the “delivery of service with value for cost” is one of the key concepts embodied in the City's
Mission Statement (San Luis Obispo Style— Quality With Vision). To this end, the City will constantly
monitor and review our methods of operation to ensure that services continue to be delivered in the
most cost-effective manner possible.
This review process encompasses a wide range of productivity issues, including:
A. Analyzing systems and procedures to identify and remove unnecessary review requirements.
B. Evaluating the ability of new technologies and related capital investments to improve productivity.
C. Developing the skills and abilities of all City employees.
D. Developing and implementing appropriate methods of recognizing and rewarding exceptional
employee performance.
E. Evaluating the ability of the private sector to perform the same level of service at a lower cost.
F. Periodic formal reviews of operations on a systematic, ongoing basis.
G. Maintaining a decentralized approach in managing the City's support service functions. Although
some level of centralization is necessary for review and control purposes, decentralization supports
productivity by:
1. Encouraging accountability by delegating responsibility to the lowest possible level.
2. Stimulating creativity, innovation and individual initiative.
3. Reducing the administrative costs of operation by eliminating unnecessary review procedures.
4. Improving the organization's ability to respond to changing needs and identify and implement
cost-saving programs.
5. Assigning responsibility for effective operations and citizen responsiveness to the department.
H. Maintaining City purchasing policies and procedures that are as efficient and effective as possible.

LONG RANGE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PLAN NEEDS
12/2/22
Page 471 of 748
2
OVERVIEW
The Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs provides a glimpse into the future
improvement needs of the City as envisioned by the General Plan or other Council adopted
plans. Many of our current infrastructure assets are not adequate to handle the needs of the
future. Many streets must be built or widened, intersections improved, bicycle facilities
added, water lines and sewer lines extended into new areas, and new parks must be built.
The Long-Range Capital Improvement Needs can serve as a guide for required future
investments to support the General Plan as well as other Council approved policies, plans,
and goals in place today. At the time of General Plan build out, the projects included in
the Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs would ideally be built and available for
use by the community.
Annual maintenance needs for City infrastructure are shown below and represent the ideal
annual investment.
Table 1: Annual Maintenance Needs
Asset Ideal Annual Funding
Traffic Management $ 310,000
Pavement Management $ 5,420,000
Curb, Gutter, Sidewalks $ 1,230,000
Flood Control $ 6,520,000
Sidewalk Ramps $ 720,000
Parks Play Equipment $ 190,000
Water Systems $ 3,820,000
Sewer Systems $ 3,450,000
Buildings $ 1,940,000
Bike Path Maintenance $ 130,000
Openspace Maintenance $ 190,000
Total $ 23,920,000
Annual maintenance needs of existing assets are an important consideration when
considering the one-time implementation cost of long-range infrastructure expansions
projects. While the Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs focuses on the new
facilities and infrastructure needed to support the City at build-out, the costs to maintain
existing assets should also be considered. Ideally, these projects would be built as part of
new development taking place in the City, but this may be unrealistic. The City may need
to build some of these projects using grant funds, general funds, or some form of debt
financing. There also may be opportunities in the future in which to leverage grant funding
to build larger infrastructure maintenance projects to complement what new development
provides.
By considering the Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs in the context of the
Financial Plan process, these projects provide an important starting place in assessing
Page 472 of 748
3
which ones might be a high priority to consider in the next funding cycle. The list is a way
for the Council to see the long-term infrastructure improvements that are needed and have
an “order of magnitude” idea of how much it may cost to fully implement.
With this understanding, the Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs is one of the
pieces of information for the Council to consider in setting goals and priorities. This Long-
Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs is conceptual, and in most cases, the projects have
not undergone detailed analysis, nor undergone the rigor of the public review process. They
represent City staff’s best assessment of costs and scope based on what is known today but
may undergo changes in scope or importance as new challenges and issues emerge over
time. In short, this report focuses on presenting the "inventory" of improvements that may
be needed at some time in the future, as a starting point in the goal-setting process.
A summary of estimated cost of the Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan Needs by
function and anticipated funding source is as follows:

The City of San Luis Obispo is a full-service city.
The City’s first obligation is to provide core
services. New initiatives and one-time strategic goals
overlap core services. If additional resources (revenue)
are not available, tradeoffs are necessary.
Historically, many Major City Goal (MCG) initiatives
have morphed into core services (Housing, Climate
Action, DEI). These programs do not go away even if
not selected as MCGs.
MCGs should reflect the most important, strategic
focus areas for the upcoming financial plan years.

•Continuation of existing Major City Goal work programs that have not
been completed or are ongoing in nature (Financial Plan pages 38-62)
•Council to review MCG work programs for areas of expansion or focus

Economic Outlook Overview
23
•So far, so good
•Best case scenario: Federal Reserve Bank accomplishes a “soft landing”
•Worst case scenario: economy headed toward recession
•Expect some degree of cooling as we move into 2023
•Unemployment rates remain low
•Must also consider increased cost of doing business in forecast
•City will provide updated five-year forecasts on February 7, 2023

24Consumer Spending and Tourism
70% of local
sales tax
generated is from
visitors and day-
time commuters
Upside Downside
•Major tax revenue positively
influenced by savings
accumulation, pent-up demand,
inflationary pressures and
renewed travel activity.
•Volatility: Major tax revenues (Sales
tax and TOT) are also most
susceptible to recessionary impacts

The building blocks are in place to achieve long term fiscal health.
Looking forward: the cost of doing
business and consideration of tradeoffs
27
1 Over $3 million of one-time funding was
allocated in FY 2022-23. Continuation of these
pilot programs will require continuation of funding*
2 The cost of core services and infrastructure has
grown tremendously. In order to remain a competitive
employer, the City must provide competitive wages.
3 Expanding city will require expansion of
resources. (More streets = more maintenance.
More neighborhoods = More Public Safety)

CalPERs and the City’s Unfunded
Liability
28
•The City successfully made a $12.4 million catch-up payment to
CalPERS in March 2022
•In July 2022, CalPERS reported a 6.1% net loss on investments for the
12-month period
•Staff will likely recommend at the 2022-23 Mid-Year Review an additional
one-time payment towards CalPERS to help offset the losses
•The City’s commitment to annually pay additional contributions will serve
the organization in the long run.
