MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Matthew Downing, City Manager
Bill Robeson, Assistant City Manager/Public Works Director
BY: Nicole Valentine, Director of Administrative Services
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget
DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt a Resolution adopting the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-27 Biennial Budget and making
appropriations for the amount budgeted; and
2) Determine that adopting of the Budget is not a project subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in either a direct,
or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA
Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.) Individual projects within the Budget may
be subject to CEQA and environmental review will be conducted at the appropriate time
during implementation of those projects.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The proposed 2025-27 Biennial Budget recommends approximately $111.1 million in
expenditures, including operating costs such as salaries, benefits, services, supplies,
maintenance, debt service, and capital related items, over the next two fiscal years. The
Consolidated General Fund FY 2025-26 budget recommends approximately $55.7 million
and the Consolidated General Fund FY 2026-27 budget recommends approximately
$55.4 million.
The budget as presented is balanced in both years using reserves, maintains adeq uate
reserves at or above policy levels, goal of 20% with a minimum of 15%, and addresses
several goals and priorities discussed previously with the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
Every two years, staff and Council prepare a Biennial Budget document, which commits
government resources and services to accomplish the City’s mission of making Arroyo
Grande the best place possible for everyone who lives, works, and visits here. Work is

now underway to finalize the upcoming biennial budget for Fiscal Years 202 5-27. The
anticipated 5-step process and timeline for this budget cycle are depicted in Figure 1:
Figure 1: Overview of Biennial Budget Process
On January 28, 20251, Council received an update on the General Fund Five -Year
Financial Forecast. The City’s Forecast is a long-range fiscal planning tool that has served
as the framework for the development of the FY 202 5-27 General Fund Biennial Budget.
On December 9, 2024, an Arroyo Grande Community Priorities Survey was published.
This 4-question online survey was posted on the City website and promoted on social
media channels. The survey was open for one month and closed on January 15, 2025.
The survey allowed community members to provide input regarding their thoughts on
what the top priorities should be for the City over the next 2-3 years. The survey included
a combination of multiple-choice and short-response questions. A summary of the

responses was presented in the February 10, 20252, Special City Council Meeting staff
report.
On February 10, 2025, the City Council held a Goal Setting Workshop focused on
priorities for the FY 2025-27 Budget. The Results of this Goal Setting Workshop were
provided to City Council on March 11, 20253. The City Council established five (5) major
City goals for staff to prioritize for the upcoming biennial budget cycle. The goals were
established considering the results of the community survey and input from the public and
staff. This set of priorities has been used by staff to create work plans and a proposed
biennial budget. The five major goals are identified in Figure 2.

prioritization and direction provided by the City Council at these previous meetings have
been incorporated into the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget.
The prioritization and direction provided by the City Council at these previous meetings
have been incorporated into the FY 202 5-27 Biennial Budget. The FY 2025-27 Biennial
Budget was also developed with input from all City departments in a collaborative effort
to provide staff’s best professional judgment regarding current and future needs of the
City. On May 27, 20255, Council reviewed the Preliminary FY 2025-27 Biennial Operating
Budget and provided feedback to staff in preparation for the public hearing. The
presentation included discussion regarding:
Proposed Staffing Requests;
Proposed Services and Supplies Requests; and
Vehicle Replacement Requests.
The FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget, described in more detail below, will provide funding for
all City services performed during the next two fiscal years. Each fund summary is
provided as Attachment 1.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 proposed budget is a balanced budget, with excess
revenues and fund balance sufficient to cover recommended work plan and capital project
budget expenditures.
The FY 2025-26 proposed budget includes a total of $32.1 million in revenues and $35.6
million in operating and capital budget for a net of $3.5 million more in expenditures than
revenues. The operating budget is balanced, with a $2 million net operating surplus. Fund
balances accumulated over time offset the additional expenditures.
The FY 2026-27 proposed budget includes a total of $33.2 million in revenues and $35.3
million in operating and capital expenditures for a net of $2 m illion more expenditures
than revenues. The operating budget is balanced, with a $65,000 net operating surplus.
Consolidated General Fund Revenues
As shown in Chart 1, Sales and Property Taxes comprise the largest source of revenue
in the General Fund, together accounting for approximately 73% of revenue in that fund.
Given this dependence on just two revenue sources, fluctuations in the amount of taxes
received can have profound impacts on the City’s ability to provide services. As long as
the real estate market stays reasonably strong, property taxes are a relatively stable
revenue source.

Chart 1: FY 2025-26 Consolidated General Fund Revenues - $32.1 million
Overall, General Fund tax revenues have been trending upward over the past several
years and are expected to increase in both years of the Biennial Budget. Based on the
latest information provided by the County Auditor-Controller’s Office, property taxes are
expected to increase by 4.25% in both fiscal years. This is the result of an increase in the
assessed valuation of properties in Arroyo Grande and a housing market that has
remained robust throughout the past year.
Sales tax receipts have remained consistent throughout the past year. As discussed
during the Fiscal Outlook presentation in January, the City’s sales tax consultant
projected a reduction in sales tax revenues of 0.4% in FY 2024 -25 due to an anticipated
minor economic slowdown. These projections reflect expected declines in categories like
automobiles and transportation, building and construction, and food & drug consumer
goods. The lower projections in these categories are the result of lower expected
consumer demand in the short term. This budget is projecting an increase in sales tax
revenues of 1% in FY 2025-26 and 2.6% in FY 2026-27, as the economy is only
anticipating a minor slowdown.

Consolidated General Fund Expenditures
The following two charts show the proposed $35.6 million Consolidated General Fund
expenditure budget for FY 2025-26, both in terms of the relative size of each department
as well as the total dollars budgeted for each department. As the charts show, the Capital
Improvement Program is the City’s largest function, with 25% of the budget. The Police
Department represents 22% of the General Fund budget. Fire services for FCFA will
receive 12% of the Consolidated General Fund and Measure O -06 budget. Public Works
receives 10% and Community Development will receive 6% of FY 2025 -26 budget
resources, respectively. The “Non-Departmental” category represents 9% of the General
Fund budget and includes items that affect all departments, such as the annual payment
on the City’s Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL), property and general liability insurance,
and transfers to the Street fund.

Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget
June 10, 2025
Page 9
Adoption of the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget is the beginning of a continuous financial
management process. Ongoing monitoring efforts include:
1. Quarterly Financial Status Reports: Concise and comprehensive reports are
issued by Staff to the Council and public on a quarterly basis.
2. Goal Status Reports: Staff will provide quarterly Goal Status Reports to the Council
that includes progress towards completing Major City Goals and Capital
Improvement Plan. These reports present updates and communications about the
status of City projects, goals, and performance measures.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Adopt a Resolution approving the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget;
2. Amend and adopt a Resolution approving the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The recommendations in the Budget reflect revenue and expenditure strategies that will
accomplish the following:
Maintain and, in certain cases, increase key service levels;
Maintain a substantial investment in improvements to the City’s infrastructure and
facilities;
Address operational sustainability concerns; and
Maintain reserves at or above the City’s policy levels.
DISADVANTAGES:
The recommendations do not fully address the long-term replacement needs of all City
equipment and infrastructure. Limited staffing levels continue to be a challenge in regard
to accomplishing all desired City priorities in a timely manner. Significant cost increases
related to pensions and insurance are still threats that will require close monitoring. The
performance of the economy in general, and the impacts of specific economic
development activities will also affect the financial condition and sustainability of City
operations.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget plan is not a project subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in either a direct,
or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA
Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.) Individual projects within the Budget may
be subject to CEQA and environmental review will be conducted at the appropriate time
during implementation of those projects.
