Transfer to the General Capital Fund:
This action reduces the transfer to the General Capital
Fund by an additional $4.3 million for a total reduction
of $5.7 million in FY 2017. This additional reduction is
recommended to be a onetime reduction as a result of
the deferral of construction activity in projects in the
Capital Fund that was programmed in the City Manager's
Fiscal Year 2017 Proposed Capital Budget. The total
transfer in FY 2017 would be $17.6 million, including the
transfer of Transient Occupancy Tax revenues of and
estimated $8.0 million. Additional details can be found

This increase in the BSR would bring the FY 2017
estimated level to $39.5 million reflecting a
recommended draw on the BSR of $998,000 in the FY
2017 Proposed Budget. The estimated BSR level of
$39.5 million in FY 2017 reflects approximately 20.4% of
the FY 2017 General Fund expenditures and is $3.6
million above the target level of 18.5% and slightly
exceeds ($688,000) the range of a 15% minimum to 20%
maximum as approved by the City Council.

This action recommends deferring the Municipal

project by one year to fiscal year 2018. Given staffing
resources and the current status of the work being
completed for this project, it is anticipated that a
deferral is feasible and will not present undue risk to the
MSC facility. A corresponding reduction in transfers
from various funds is recommended that will partially
offset this FY 2017 budget adjustment. These transfers
were budgeted to recovered these funds fair share of
the replacement costs as a number of workgroups are
housed at the MSC.

Fiscal Year 2018. In Fiscal Year 2016, funding was
allocated to for the replacement of existing park
playground, benches, and drinking fountain, as well as
resurfacing the basketball court playing surface. This
project was recommended to be extended to FY 2017
due to staffing constraints and as a result of this action,
is recommended to be deferred one additional year to
Fiscal Year 2018. The Community Services Department
is currently undergoing a Parks Master Plan as well and
it is anticipated that upon completion of that a review of
parks capital investments will be evaluated in the
context of any finding in that plan and recommended
adjustments may be brought forward to align with the
Master Plan.

project timing was adjusted to Fiscal Year 2017 to align
with the completion of the Rinconada Parks Master
Plan, however, due to current staffing capacity levels
and the larger Parks Master Plan that the Community
Services Department is currently undergoing, a deferral
of this project is recommended.

This action recommends increasing the Salaries and

in fiscal year 2017 by $206,000 (from $1.5 million to $1.7
million). This project provides funding for the estimated
salaries and benefit costs of City Staff assigned to
manage the General Fund Capital Improvement
program. With the recommended deferral of some
projects, the associated salary and benefit costs
previously programmed in those projects are
recommended to be allocated to this project. During

Capital Transfer from the General Fund to the General Capital

This action recommends a onetime reduction in the
transfer of funds from the General Fund to the General
Capital Fund of $4.3 million brining the FY 2017 transfer
level to $17.6 million compared to the recommended
$21.9 million that was included in the FY2017 City
Manager's Proposed Capital Budget. This action is
recommended to be offset by the recommended
deferral of three capital improvement projects formerly
budgeted to be addressed during FY 2017, however,
upon further review sufficient resources do not exist to
complete these projects in this timeframe. This one
time reduction would require a increase in the General
Fund transfer of a comparable or increased level to the
FY2018 Proposed Capital Improvement Budget above
what is included in the FY 20172026 Long Range
Financial Forecast in order to ensure sufficient funding is
available to complete these projects.
