League of California Cities wwwcacitiesorg2

This issue of Western City focuses on municipal finance So it seems appropriate to look at some of the major policy and

fiscal challenges facing cities over the next five to 10 years and how the tools pre-sented in this monthrsquos articles can be part of your overall fiscal management strategy

President Harry Truman who coined the phrase ldquothe buck stops hererdquo also report-edly requested a one-armed economist Apparently he was sick of economists proclaiming ldquoon the one hand thisrdquo and ldquoon the other hand thatrdquo Todayrsquos economists may be more willing to take a position but they donrsquot always agree Some recent economic projections in our state illustrate this point

The UCLA Anderson School of Manage-ment economic forecast released Sept 11 2014 includes this statement about conditions in California ldquoThe California economy is moving forward in an expansion from the depths of the

for Cities

The

ChallengesFiscal

Ahead

Great Recession But even though the number of jobs is now higher than at any time in the past the state remains below its potential in output and employment That we are entering the sixth year of expansion illustrates just how painfully plodding this recovery process has beenrdquo

On the same day the University of the Pacificrsquos School of Business issued an eco-nomic forecast that states ldquoOverall the California economic outlook has changed little since May Californiarsquos economy continues to grow and non-farm payrolls recently surpassed their pre-recession 2007 peak of 154 million jobs 2014 is shaping up to be yet another year of moderate 2 to 3 percent growth in both employment and gross state product (GSP) The forecast anticipates stronger growth from 2015 to 2017 with real GSP growing between 35 and 4 percent as homebuilding makes a larger contribution to growthrdquo

These leading economists believe our economic recovery is still ldquopainfully

ploddingrdquo and at least in the case of the University of Pacific projections that there may be stronger growth around the corner from 2015ndash17 These forecasts and the fact that they donrsquot necessarily agree suggest a number of possible approaches to revenue projections for the next five years One thing we do have a good handle on is the recent past and the news of the past few years from a statewide perspective is positive

City General Revenues Moderate Recovery but Uneven Throughout the State

Few if any of us have probably ever experi-enced anything like the contraction in city revenues that occurred during the Great Recession As everyone in local government knows (because every city was negatively affected to some extent) the decline in every major revenue source required making tough cutbacks and innovative service arrangements and deferring necessary in-vestments in infrastructure and equipment

Figure 2 California City and County Sales and Use Tax Allocations as a Percentage of California Personal Income

As Figure 1 (left) illustrates it is clear that from a statewide perspective city general revenues have returned to the level from which they fell in FY 2009ndash10 at the time of the Great Recession As always however in a state as diverse as California the re-covery has been uneven with coastal cities often faring better than those inland Many cities are only now beginning to consider giving salary increases after four to five years of austerity and employee ldquogive backsrdquo and concessions Moreover cities made signifi-cant reductions in the number of full-time employees The loss of redevelopment in 2011 has made this picture and the overall revenue picture of cities even bleaker

What Did Not Get Done

In addition to reducing personnel cities had to defer routine infrastructure main-tenance and replacement to survive the recession Fewer streets bridges buildings and other real estate assets were main-tained unless there was a source of fee revenue to support the work or a federal

infrastructure grant to finance it In October 2014 the League and the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) released a report estimating that cities and counties together face $783 billion in unfunded street and road improvements over the next 10 years According to one national transportation research group the failure to maintain our highways is also costing California motorists $44 billion annually or over $2000 per motorist personally on average per year due to additional vehicle operating costs conges-tion-related delays and traffic crashes

Questions About the Future Viability of the Sales Tax

While the sales tax has long been a source of steady revenue growth for cities changes in the economy and the burgeoning market for e-commerce are posing some serious challenges about the future of the sales tax as a major leg of the three-legged stool of city revenues (property tax sales tax and miscellaneous taxes and fees)

Data from the California State Board of Equalization shown in Figure 2 demonstrate that sales tax collections as a percentage of personal income have fallen from 053 percent in 1974 to 024 percent in 2012 This suggests its declining value as a local revenue source because so many retail sales escape taxation due to two major factors

1 The shift in consumer consumption from taxable retail goods to untaxed services and

2 The growth of e-commerce that largely escapes taxation

We have known for a long time that our sales tax base has become increasingly obsolete as more untaxed music software information storage and other services grow Moreover as the population ages spending preferences shift to services (including health care) and taxable spending declines

Percent of Personal Income


The once-fledgling e-commerce market is on the way to becoming the fastest-growing part of the economy and it is still largely untaxed because Congress has failed to pass legislation leveling the playing field between e-commerce and traditional brick-and-mortar busi-nesses According to the US Census Bureau since 2005 e-commerce as a share of total retail sales has increased from 24 percent to 64 percent In the second quarter of 2014 total retail sales increased 23 percent and e-commerce sales increased 49 percent

Californiarsquos composite sales tax rate is among the highest in the nation and its base among the narrowest Services and intangible goods are not taxed mdash yet that is where the growth in the economy is occurring

Pensions and Retiree Health Care The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Defined benefit pensions used to be the gold standard in the private and public sectors providing solid but not extrava-gant retirement benefits to employees who dedicated their lives in service to their employer As private business consolidations and mergers occurred at an unprecedented rate over the past two decades companies began to abandon defined benefit programs that created such high ldquolegacy costsrdquo for their balance sheets and started substituting less gener-ous but highly portable 401(k) retirement savings and investment plans While the private sector was abandoning traditional pensions for the new model the public sector in California went the other direc-tion beginning in 1999

Apparently convinced that the economic surge that began in the late 1990s would go on forever the state Legislature autho-rized richer retirement options for both miscellaneous and public safety employees Following the statersquos lead cities counties and special districts began adopting these enhancements without really considering the long-term liabilities that such plans created The most expensive were the ones that were retroactive suddenly increas-ing pension rewards for prior rather than future service

When the 2008 Great Recession hit and the California Public Employeesrsquo Retirement System (CalPERS) and stand-alone local pension plans suffered serious investment losses unfunded liabilities increased dramatically for both the state and local agencies

CalPERS made some quick changes and lengthened the time period over which the losses would be recognized to reduce the increases on employer and employee contributions But it soon became clear that this policy of constantly pushing losses off into the future was threatening the funding status and increasing the volatility of the various plans adminis-tered by CalPERS

CalPERS changed its ldquosmoothingrdquo policies in 2013 raising employer contribution rates significantly over the next five years In early 2014 recognizing that people are living longer CalPERS raised rates again to improve the planrsquos long-term sustain-ability Once again local agencies experi-enced rate increases that will be phased in over a five-year period

Combined with citiesrsquo retiree health and dental care liability (referred to as other post-employment benefits or OPEBs) the unfunded liabilities of cities for pensions and OPEBs are daunting One manager of an otherwise well-financed

city told me recently that in year three of his cityrsquos five-year financial forecast the pension rate increases alone will put the city into a deficit spending position even if they assume healthy revenue growth and it worsens in the subsequent years Another city advised me that the CalPERS rate increases over the next five years will consume all of its future revenue growth during that time leaving nothing left over for salary increases mdash and likely forcing service and staffing reductions

Figure 3 illustrates the depth of the fiscal challenges facing cities over the next few years shown by types of benefits provided For many cities pension contributions to CalPERS for public safety employees will rise dramatically over the next five years If there are no future benefit enhancements costs will start moderat-ing after 2022 While this illustrates the long-term nature of the problem the next five to 10 years are expected to be the most expensive and painful In the near future CalPERS expects to explain

to employers how local public agencies can prefund their individual unfunded pension liabilities if they have the available cash For some cities this will prove to be a very prudent step

The state cities and other local agencies also face retiree health-care burdens that could be more than their unfunded pen-sion liabilities As in the case of pensions the best solution to this problem is to pre-fund this liability through an irrevocable OPEB trust arrangement through Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) CalPERS or an insurance company Meanwhile cities are conducting major reassessments of their retiree health com-mitments in light of the Affordable Care Act and other factors

Taking the Long View

With three major municipal bankrupt-cies in California cities in recent years it is clear that the risks of overcommitting a city to long-term liabilities are not just theoretical mdash they are real For this reason

The next five to years are expected to be the most expensive and painful

the League has made a commitment to help city leaders dedicate themselves to using the best tools to assess their fiscal risks and to charting a future course to reduce those risks The article on page 13 ldquoLeague Provides Municipal Financial Health Diagnostic Toolrdquo by the Leaguersquos fiscal adviser Michael Coleman describes a new fiscal diagnostic tool he has developed at our request which cities throughout the state are beginning to use

While there are no easy answers to how to manage through the next 10 years there are tools techniques and options that need to be discussed with city employees and the public in order to make the best choices for each city As with everything else there is no one-size-fits-all solution but cities are beginning to look at the next five years and developing options to emerge on the other side with their major public services intact mdash perhaps config-ured in a different way and costing less but nonetheless intact and serving city residents in effective and efficient ways

CalTRUST Offers a Safe Convenient Investment Pool for Local Agenciesby Norman Coppinger

A program such as CalTRUST was new territory in the public investment world at the time Through the diligence of a few dedicated professional and knowledge-able individuals CalTRUST was launched with $50 million from 10 visionary public agencies Eleven years later CalTRUST has more than 110 public agency partici-pants and continues to reach new mile-stones Today CalTRUST has a historical high of $19 billion in assets

Safe Reliable OptionsOrganized as a joint powers authority (JPA) CalTRUST offers short-term medium-term and money market accounts These accounts provide easy safe and reli-able options that allow public agencies to align their investment time horizon meet cash flow needs and reallocate as necessary Each account seeks to attain as high a level of current income as is consistent with preservation of principal by investing only in high-quality fixed-income securities

Leverage is not permitted and all CalTRUST accounts comply with the limits and restrictions placed on local investments by California statutes

Participating public agencies do not need to be a member of the JPA to invest in CalTRUST Through the CalTRUST website public agencies have 24-hour password-protected access to their individual account information The website provides the current value of CalTRUST shares as well as informa-tion regarding the underlying pools of securities in the CalTRUST accounts Month-end statements can be down-loaded directly from the CalTRUST website or an agency can opt to receive printed monthly statements

Fiduciary responsibilities and oversight are carried out by the 11-member Cal-TRUST Board of Trustees composed of local treasurers and investment officers The board selected CalTRUSTrsquos invest-ment adviser through a competitive

continued on page 26

It all started with an idea In 2003 a group of local government

treasurers and finance officers sought a safe investment

vehicle other than the state pool Together they developed the

concept for a new investment pool created and governed by

local officials This idea led the California State Association of

Counties Finance Corporation and League of California Cities

to create the Investment Trust of California commonly known

as CalTRUST

A moderate economic recovery has followed the Great Recession and local sales tax and property tax revenues mdash although lagging behind changes in the economy mdash are improving in most areas of the state But while resources are no longer declining for a majority of California cities neither are they back to the levels of 10 years ago Moreover citiesrsquo financial struggles were not simply the result of revenue impacts expenses continue to escalate dramatically

especially in pensions retiree health care and public works infrastructure

Heeding the frightening tales of neigh-boring cities local officials asked them-selves how are we doing Are we ignoring something at our peril How can we be more certain of our cityrsquos financial health Existing methods of evaluating a cityrsquos fiscal health included diagnostic tools proffered by consultants professional associations and academic texts as well as checklists routinely generated in some states But city officials wondered would these have helped Vallejo or Stockton when those cities were en route to bank-ruptcy If not then what are the most relevant elements of such tools Keeping in mind the unique aspects of California municipal finance and recent budgetary travails of California cities what other questions and indices should be addressed to truly grasp a municipalityrsquos tendency toward fiscal insolvency now and in the near future

Developing the Needed Tool

For the past two years the League has been developing just such a financial diagnostic tool The project began at the urging of League Past Presidents Ron Loveridge and Ron Bates With the help of experienced finance professionals who have seen firsthand the ingredients of financial failure as well as success and in conjunction with a review of other similar tools the Leaguersquos team developed tested and refined a tool to bring a local agencyrsquos financial condition more clearly into focus Hundreds of local financial managers have reviewed and been trained on the tool offering valuable feedback while they gain insight into their agencyrsquos situation

The tool includes a 13-point report card that grades the near-term financial health of a cityrsquos General Fund and other opera-tions Each indicator receives either a green light (healthy) yellow light (caution) or red light (warning) Completing the tool helps a city identify areas of fiscal concern that should be addressed to avert fiscal crisis

projections from the cityrsquos five-year forecast Applying these figures they completed the formulas that are the foun-dation of the 13 indicators in the tool Based on these results they determined ratings for each indicator

League Provides Municipal Financial Health Diagnostic Tool continued

The City of Lafayette was the first municipality to use the California Mu-nicipal Financial Health Diagnostic Tool and publicize the results Lafayette City Manager Steve Falk heard about the tool at a League conference and assigned staff to implement it

Staff began using a beta version of the Leaguersquos diagnostic tool in early 2014 to evaluate the cityrsquos financial condition They reviewed Lafayettersquos financial and budgetary records and operating agree-ments and used the detailed revenue cash flow fund balance and expenditure

The California Municipal Financial Health Diagnostic Financial Distress Checklist

Measures 1 Does the city have recurring General Fund operating deficits

2 Are General Fund reserves decreasing over multiple consecutive years

3 Are General Fund current liabilities (including short-term debt and accounts payable within 60 days) increasing Are cash and short-term investments decreasing

4 Are General Fund fixed costs salaries and benefits increasing over multiple years at a rate faster than recurring revenue growth

5 Is the General Fund subsidizing other enterprises or special funds

Practices and Conditions

6 Is the city councilrsquos authority to make changes constrained by charter contract or law (for example binding arbitration minimum spending minimum staffing or compensation formulas etc)

7 Has the General Fund budget been balanced repeatedly with reserves selling assets andor deferring asset maintenance

8 Has the General Fund budget been balanced repeatedly with short-term borrowing internal borrowing or transfers from special funds

9 Have General Fund pension liabilities post-employment or other non-salary benefits been repeatedly deferred or have costs not been determined disclosed or actuarially funded

10 Have General Fund debt service payments been ldquobackloadedrdquo into future years

11 Are ongoing General Fund operating costs being funded with temporary development revenues

12 Are financial reports (such as the comprehensive annual financial report annual audit and State Controllerrsquos Financial Transactions Report) completed and filed late

13 Are public service levels far below standards needed in the community


Expenses continue to escalate dramatically

especially in pensions retiree health care

and public works infrastructure

In June 2014 staff presented the results to the city council with a narrative report explaining and evaluating the results Lafayette scored ldquohealthyrdquo for 11 of the 13 indicators ldquoThe city is doing well with green lights on 11 of the 13 indicators and yellow lights on the remaining twordquo City Manager Falk explains ldquoThose two areas of concern mdash lsquoThe city has recurring General Fund operating deficitsrsquo and lsquoGeneral Fund reserves are decreasing over multiple consecutive yearsrsquo mdash show up because the council decided as a policy matter to move over a two-year period $3 million from its extra-large reserve into the road repair program Doing so now will save money in the future and it still leaves the city with a $6 million reserve equal to 50 percent of the annual General Fund budget mdash way above the recommended 5 to 15 percent reserve recommended by the Government Finance Officers Associationrdquo

Itrsquos worth noting that Lafayette has some financial advantages that most other California local agencies do not In addi-tion to its ability to maintain reserves well above best practices recommendations the city provides retirement programs that do not include defined benefit plans

Conclusion

Californiarsquos economy is improving even in the Central Valley and inland areas where the recovery has been slowest and local rev-enues are picking up But fiscal challenges

remain especially in the area of escalating costs More cities are heading into financial peril The better city officials can see these problems coming and understand where they are coming from the better they will be able to manage them and avoid financial distress ldquoWhat you donrsquot know can hurt yourdquo says League Past President Ron Bates ldquoAnd what you try to ignore will likely only get worse and more difficult to deal withrdquo The diagnostic tool can be found at httpcaliforniacityfinancecomindexphpMANAGING

ldquoYour time in public service may well be one of the most interesting and challenging times of your liferdquo -Donald Rumsfeld

You serve others and LCW is honored to serve you


Like most working professionals when Irsquom introduced to someone new at a com-munity event or social gathering Irsquom often asked ldquoWhat do you dordquo When I tell them ldquoIrsquom a city clerkrdquo I usually get a blank stare followed by a brief awk-ward pause in the conversation Thatrsquos when I realize that my new acquaintance has no idea what a city clerk is or does In fact most people mdash unless they are very active in local government mdash donrsquot understand the city clerkrsquos role Even though the city clerkrsquos profession is one of the oldest in local government elected and appointed leaders may not fully un-derstand its importance This may be in part because clerks typically work behind the scenes and generally prefer to stay out of the limelight

The clerkrsquos profession took a hit earlier in 2014 after a Northern California city received some negative media coverage about an elected city clerk who failed to meet the statutory requirement to produce council meeting minutes Numerous articles appeared in the local press and uninformed opinions were expressed in blogs about it This incident suggested a need for more public education about the role of the clerk In a discussion of the situation with my friend and colleague Berkeley City Clerk Mark Numainville he offered this football analogy ldquoYou never notice the snapper and the holder for a field goal when they do their job well but you sure notice it when they do their job poorlyrdquo

Defining the RoleAs an active member of the City Clerks Association of California (CCAC) and

a technical trainer for clerks I work with other clerks in the state to facilitate CCACrsquos mission which is to promote the city clerkrsquos profession through education support and communication In response to the media attention given to the city clerk who didnrsquot produce council meeting minutes and to set the record straight I wrote an article for the CCAC monthly publication the Official Word This excerpt documents the clerkrsquos responsibility to produce minutes

As municipal clerks we are bound by a professional code of ethics which includes tenets to be neutral and impartial and to record that which is true It has been suggested that the act of recording and preparing minutes is no longer needed or is too expensive given other demands on local govern-ment especially in light of todayrsquos technology which includes online access to agendas and video archives The California Government Code requires 1) that the ldquocouncil shall cause the clerk to keep a correct record of its proceedingsrdquo (Govrsquot Code Section 36814)and2)thattheldquoclerkshallkeep an accurate record of the proceed-ings of the legislative bodyrdquo (Govrsquot Code Section 40801) Even though many agencies are using webpages to post meeting agendas and host video archiving this technology does not eliminate the statutory requirement for cities to produce an agenda and post it pursuant to the Brown Act nor does it eliminate the state law mandate that formal written minutes be prepared to accurately record the actions of the legislative bodies

In the mid-2000s things were looking up for the City of Vallejo a community of more than 115000 residents from diverse backgrounds located northeast of the San Francisco Bay Area The city was enjoying a decade-long economic recovery following the 1996 decommis-sioning of Mare Island a large naval base that had long been a mainstay of the local economy Vallejorsquos proximity to San Francisco and the state capital positioned it as a prime destination for drivers of the new economy

Vallejorsquos Participatory Budgeting

Builds Public Involvement Generates Results

However city-funded services were fiscally unsustainable The confluence of the Great Recession and rising liabilities forced Vallejo to declare Chapter 9 bankruptcy in 2008 resulting in a drastic reduction in city services and programs Vallejorsquos im-age suffered alongside its credit rating and residentsrsquo frustration with their govern-ment became the new norm

Even as Vallejo emerged from bankruptcy in 2011 the city continued to face public distrust due to a lack of transparency

accountability and resident involvement In an effort to restore city revenues and services in November 2011 Vallejo voters narrowly passed Measure B a 1 percent sales tax increase to restore and enhance services Then a city council member proposed something audacious inviting residents to help decide how to spend 30 percent of the first 15 monthsrsquo worth of tax revenue approximately $32 million In response the city council established the citywide Participatory Budgeting (PB) program on April 17 2012

PB enabled residents to work with city government to help make budget deci-sions by involving them in a unique and innovative method of managing public budgets Community participant Patricia Kutza says that she and her fellow vol-unteers got a taste of ldquothe challenges city departments face with limited funds and high expectationsrdquo PB also offered an op-portunity to empower residents rebuild trust after the strain of the bankruptcy and build productive partnerships among residents and city staff working toward a common goal of improving the cityrsquos quality of life

Getting the Program Off the Ground

The PB Steering Committee appointed by the city council and composed of representatives from diverse local civic organizations ensured the process would reflect the cityrsquos diversity needs and inter-ests The steering committee along with

city staff and consultants outlined three goals for Vallejorsquos PB process

1 Improve the City of Vallejo

2 Engage the community and

3 Transform democracy

John De La Torre a steering committee member noted early on that PB would create a ldquofundamental change in how the community and city work togetherrdquo

The PB process comprised five phases that involved budget assemblies budget delegates project expos voting and funding and implementation

Budget Assemblies (November through December 2012) mdash The city convened nine budget assemblies held in locations throughout the city where residents conversed in small groups to generate public project ideas To encourage broad representation of Vallejorsquos residents child care was provided at several meetings and one assembly was conducted entirely in Spanish A website also provided a way for residents to submit project ideas online complementing the assemblies

Budget Delegates (January through March 2013) mdash Residents who vol-unteered to serve as budget delegates on one of eight committees were responsible for screening project ideas for eligibility prioritizing ideas based on public benefit and needs and developing those ideas into detailed proposals for a public vote Two additional committees composed of youth and Spanish-speakers helped reduce language and age barriers

Project Expos (April 2013) mdash Three Project Expos provided an opportunity for the community to learn about proposals developed by budget delegates that would appear on the PB ballot Project proposals were displayed in a science fair format

Voting (May 2013) mdash The PB ballot listed 33 projects and each resident could vote for up to six projects Voting took place over eight days in various locations including supermarkets places of wor-ship schools and Vallejo City Hall Any Vallejo resident age 16 or older could vote in the PB election

Attention to Detail Amy Holt and Abraham David Benavides wrote about the city clerk-city manager relationship in an article titled ldquoThe Top Five Things to Know About the Mu-nicipal Clerk Positionrdquo published in the International CityCounty Management Associationrsquos PM Magazine

Clerks are selected for their attention to detail as well as their ability to be forward-thinking and to anticipate problems A strong positive profes-sional relationship between the clerk and the manager is important for effectiveservicedeliverytoresidents

Clerks are knowledgeable professionals and public servants who wear many hats and switch gears constantly City councils city managers and city attorneys rely on the clerk not only to ensure transparency but also to comply with a multitude of laws and regula-tions and deal with numerous processes

Acknowledging a Job Well DoneVallejo City Manager Daniel Keen offers some observations about the clerkrsquos role based on his experience working with Vallejo City Clerk Dawn Abrahamson MMC ldquoHaving a professional city clerk like Dawn is so important these daysrdquo says Keen ldquoWhether she is dealing with the intricacies of election laws conflict-of-interest reporting or public records therersquos no substitute for the knowledge that a great city clerk like Dawn provides to the public and staff We live in an age when the public demands much higher levels of transparency and access to city records and Dawn has helped restore the faith of our community in its local government Her willingness to assist our residents has also instilled greater confi-dence in the cityrdquo

There is no greater compliment than an elected officialrsquos expression of apprecia-tion for a job well done by the city clerk The Rancho Cordova City Council nominated City Clerk Mindy Cuppy MMC as City Clerk of the Year for 2014 and then-CCAC President Nanci Lima presented her with the title in April In his letter nominating Cuppy

Mayor Dan Skoglund referred to her as a ldquorelationship builder and super clerkrdquo and described her leadership abilities various achievements and many contributions to the City of Rancho Cordova Several city

1 Safeguard the principal

2 Meet the liquidity needs of the participants and

3 Maximize the yield in a manner con-sistent with the first two objectives

Whether or not a public agency has an in-house professional investment staff CalTRUST meets the investment needs of large and small public agencies alike John Colville chief investment officer for the City of Sacramento and a CalTRUST board member relies on CalTRUST as an important tool in man-aging the cityrsquos investment portfolio

ldquoCalTRUST allows me to be extremely flexible in managing the cityrsquos investable cashrdquo says Colville ldquoThe money market provides me daily liquidity to meet city liabilities while the short- and medium-term portfolios give me diversification options in which I can add duration and yield that the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) just does not offer Having the cityrsquos money managed by CalTRUSTrsquos experienced investment adviser gives my investment board confidence that the cityrsquos money is being carefully investedrdquo

Similarly Larkspur City Manager Daniel Schwarz indicates that for smaller cities CalTRUST ldquohas proved to be a safe and reliable means for an agency with limited staff and time to yield higher returns than LAIF while preserving the liquidity necessary to manage cash flowrdquo
