AGENDASTATEMENT
Item No. 6.A.
For Meeting of: December 6, 2016
ITEM TITLE: 3rd Quarter 2016 Budget Report
SUBMITTED BY: Cindy Epperson, Director of Finance & Budget
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
As part of the 2013 Strategic Plan, the City Council implemented a Financial Trend Monitoring
System (FTMS) in order to provide a simple "performance at a glance" of budgetary and revenue
trends. The FTMS compares key financial and economic indicators as an "early warning system"
regarding the financial and economic health of the City, and assigns "positive", "normal",
"warning", and "negative" labels to revenues and expenditures.
At the end of the third quarter 2016, we are seeing typical variances tied to timing --such as debt
service contributions, progress on capital projects, and property tax collections. All expenditure
categories received a "normal" ranking, as actual results are within 5% of expected levels at this
point in time. Two General Government revenue categories are receiving a "warning"
designation --sales and utility tax. These warnings are consistent with prior quarter reports.
Fortunately, we added two "positive" revenue categories --State Shared Revenue and Other
(although they are smaller dollar amounts). No categories received a "negative" designation.
Management implemented cost containment measures through the end of the year to make up
for some of the reduction in General Government revenue, but we are still estimating to use about
$210,000 of reserves by the end of 2016.
All of the funds were reviewed carefully during recent budget preparation, as we estimate year
end results to arrive at a beginning fund balance that becomes part of the available resources for
the 2017 budget. The trends in this report were the basis for preparing those estimates. It
should be noted that the appropriation that went to Council in November is not included in these
budget numbers, as it is 4th quarter activity.
General Government (i.e. tax supported) funds including General, Parks & Recreation, and Street
& Traffic Engineering are at 74.3% of budget. Citywide, expenditures are at 60.8% of budget,
which is below 75% of the year primarily because of timing of capital projects and debt service
payments. Overall, year-to-date results through the third quarter are as anticipated.

Sales Tax — As reported in the Five -Year Financial Plan that went to Council on February 23, 2016, Sales Tax
dropped below prior year actual for the last 3 months of 2015, attributed primarily to the drought putting a
damper on spending in the region. Through the first quarter of 2016, sales tax was still running slightly
below the prior year, although there has been a positive trend for April through October, so that through
the ten months ending in October, we are 3.2% ahead of 2015 year to date for the same time period. The
budget was originally set at $16,650,400, and the new estimate being used for the 2016 budget estimate is
$16,400,000 — still below the original budget, which is why this category received a "warning" designation,
but only by $250,400. The new estimate is 4.0% above 2015 actual. The 2015 actual was only 2.9% higher
than the full year of 2014, after 3 consecutive years of 6.4% and higher growth rates in the years 2012-2014.
Since our economy is closely tied to the agricultural sector, the wet winter eliminated the threat of extreme
drought, and the recent sales tax receipts (i.e. April through October) would indicate an upturn in the
economy. In looking at 1st 2nd and 3rd quarter data from the Employment Security Department, year -over -
year job growth was 2.6%, 2.4%, and 2.7% respectively --in comparison, the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2015
experienced year -over -year job growth of only 1.1% in each quarter. This job growth preliminarily
indicates an upturn in the underlying economy. Building Permit activity is staying strong, and this is a pre-
cursor to construction sales tax. Looking at these underlying economic factors, and recent trends this
revenue appears to be on target to meet the reduced budget estimate by year end.
Property Tax — The first half of the Property Tax assessment is due to the Yakima County Treasurer by
April 30, and the second half is due October 31. Therefore, the third quarter receipts are typically slightly
more than 50% of the annual budget, because of accounts that are paid in full in April and payments in full
Yakima. 7979.1.FIN_Report_3rd_Qtr_2016.docx 3 of 14
when property sells. The budget is set based on assumptions of new construction and collection rates—the
2016 actual levy was very close to the levy assumptions made, so this major revenue should meet or slightly
exceed budget, depending on collection rate.
Utility and Franchise Taxes — After falling off in 2015, this category is experiencing 0.8% growth over the
prior year at the end of the 3rd quarter, and is below the 75% mark through this time frame. Contributing
factors for this category includes weather conditions through the first nine months of the year, along with
raw energy price reductions. Telephone taxes continue to decline, with the migration away from land lines
and cell phone "talking minutes" to data which is not currently taxable. So this category overall is
expected to end about $305,000 below budgeted amounts by year end, still in line with the estimate made in
the most recent Five -Year Financial Plan.
State Shared Revenue — The 2016 budget was built assuming we would receive a similar amount to the
prior year in the criminal justice distributions. The "high -crime" distribution is recalculated every year
following the State's fiscal year (i.e. the 3rd calendar quarter), based on the number of communities reaching
certain thresholds. Because of the change in eligible recipients, Yakima's allocation increased by about
$203,000 over the 2016 budget. Therefore, the variance is labeled a "positive" difference.
Other Intergovernmental — The SAFER (i.e. firefighter hiring) grant is only billed annually at the end of the
year, so the negative variance for this category is a timing difference, and considered normal.
Other Taxes — This category consists primarily of Business Licenses and Gambling Taxes. Business licenses
are due in January for the year, so that about 63% of this one category has been collected by June 30. It is
below prior year actual, because the bills went out earlier in December, and some of this revenue was
posted at the end of 2015. We anticipate the timing of the billing to continue at the earlier time, so that the
positive variance is a timing difference, and considered normal. Gambling Taxes are performing as
expected.
Other Revenue — This category consists primarily of interest earnings, concession revenue and sale of
assets. Most concessions activate in the summer, and the sale of two of the four Tiger Mart properties was
completed by the end of the 3rd quarter for an amount that exceeds the budget by about $288,000, which is
carrying forward into the year-end estimate and creating a positive variance.
Other categories all contain timing exceptions, and are still expected to meet the budget. Overall, general
government revenues are up by about $2,314,500 or 4.7% over 2015, and we anticipate year end to meet the
revenue budget which maintains the "normal" ranking. If the one time revenue tied to the sale of a Tiger
Mart property is removed, revenue is up approximately $1,626,000 or 3.3%. We are not experiencing a
significant increase in total revenue estimates, so budget constraints are still necessary for 2016.

SIGNIFICANT EXPENDITURE VARIANCES
Some operations in the General Government area have seasonal expenditures, which result in either
positive or negative timing variances through the third quarter. For example, the entire contribution to the
Risk Management fund is made in the first half of the year, because the corresponding purchased insurance
premiums are due at the beginning of the year. Conversely, Parks and Recreation and Economic
Development have lower program activity in the first half of the year, and pick up through the end of the
year. However, since the total General Government budget is about 69% salaries many variances are tied to
personnel — i.e. position vacancies.
The following explains why some areas are receiving a Normal designation even though they may be
over/under 75% in third quarter, yet comparable to prior years—i.e. payment timing variance
➢ Transfers to Other Funds —The annual principal payment on the 2014 street bond issue is due in the
second quarter, so the full amount of $1.7 million has been transferred. Remaining items are
transferred ratably throughout the year.
➢ Information Technology— Annual maintenance for various computer software systems, including
the annual YAKCORPS assessment, is paid in the first half of the year.
➢ Legal — This savings is the result of the City Attorney being paid out of the City Manager's budget
as interim City Manager. Also, the Community Court program that was going to start in early 2016
was postponed in the budget reduction activity, but started up in the 3rd quarter.
➢ Records/City Clerk — Prior year election costs of $214,000 were paid in the first quarter.
➢ City Hall Maintenance — Annual transfer to Risk Management Fund to pay for property insurance
is made in the first half of the year - $139,000.
➢ City Manager — One-time recruiting expenses for the new City Manager, along with the employee
survey are included in the year-to-date figures.
➢ City Council — Annual Association of Washington Cities (AWC) dues of $64,600 paid in the first
quarter.
➢ Neighborhood Partnerships — This is a new program that was postponed in the April budget
reduction report due to the slow down of sales and utility tax revenues.
➢ State Examiner — The annual audit does not get under way until the end of the 2nd quarter.
➢ Street and Traffic Operations —There was a snow event in the 1st quarter that required overtime
and outside contractors to plow. An appropriation was approved by Council at their November 15
meeting.
Position Vacancy Savings — Shown for fund total purposes only — no "actual" will be charged here.

Second quarter results are performing as expected. Most variances at this time of the year are related to
timing, which is why they are getting a Normal status.
Many Operating/Enterprise Funds have a seasonal component, and are not as active in the cold winter
months (i.e. Refuse does not do yard waste, Water and Wastewater accelerate their programs during the
good weather, Convention Center activity picks up in the spring, etc.) Conversely, some expenses are due
in entirety in the first part of the year, such as the contributions to Risk Management and Irrigation ditch
charges.
The ONDS fund's budget has many large projects that did not have much activity in the first half.
Similarly, the Environmental Fund budget includes a grant from the Department of Ecology to clean-up a
Tiger Oil site. This work is just getting started. As is typical with grant -funded programs, the expenditures
have to be made before we can be reimbursed.
Capital Fund budgets include the full project, and are not expected to be 100% completed in the current
year. The projects budgeted to be funded by limited tax general obligation bonds are currently "on hold"
until we can identify available funds to repay the future debt service. Funding for N 1s1 Street is being
Yakima. 7979.1.FIN_Report_3rd_Qtr_2016.docx 8 of 14
researched, and the related utility projects will not go forward until the Street project does. The large
equipment purchases (such as Transit buses and Fire apparatus) have been ordered, but depending on the
demand at the manufacturers, it could take up to a year to actually receive the equipment. A payment was
made on the fire truck chassis, as that piece of equipment was completed. We received three buses ordered
last year, and there are an additional 4 still on order. The Airport taxi way project got under way in the 2nd
quarter, and is the one project on the top ten capital project list that is substantially complete. The City
purchased the land from SOZO in 2015, and has paid for improvements as they occur throughout 2016—
the balance remaining at this point in time is for the purchase of additional land. A listing of the top ten
budgeted projects and their first quarter expenses follow.
Reserve Funds are slightly ahead in revenue, primarily because a full year of "premiums" (i.e. transfers
from all the applicable operating funds) to Risk Management are made in the 1st half of the year, which are
then used for the purchased liability and property insurance premiums. Expenditures in Risk
Management also includes the $1.8 million settlement to the ACLU for the Voting Rights Act lawsuit paid
out in April. Available cash has been depleted after insurance premiums and the large settlement. This
fund will access an interfund loan to cover ongoing program costs for the rest of the year. The 2017 budget
tentatively includes a 12% increase in premiums to begin to replenish this reserve balance.
The Employees' Health Benefit Fund has used about $158,000 of fund balance through the first three
quarters of the year — even though effective cost containment measures have been in place. Because of this
trend, coupled with a change in the underlying healthcare program that moves from reference -based
hospital facility costing back into utilizing a discount network, we implemented a mid -year "premium"
increase of about 5%, to cover claims for the rest of the year and keep an adequate reserve balance. We
worked with all operating budgets to make sure the increase was appropriately costed in the year-end
estimates. There were a few instances where the funds were not able to absorb this increase, and these were
included in the mid -year appropriation ordinance that was approved by Council in November, 2016.
The Wellness/Employee Assistance Program (EAP) fund is funded annually at the end of the year by a
transfer from operating funds of the City's portion of insurance premiums budgeted for unfilled/vacant
positions, so the full budget is "pre -funded" and there is no revenue in this fund until year-end. Revenue
in the Firemen's Relief and Pension Fund are tied to the property tax collection calendar—the positive
revenue variance is a timing issue (as described in the General Government section).
Revenues in Bond Redemption Funds are generally deposited/transferred ratably throughout the year, but
the bulk of debt service payments are made in the second and last quarters. For existing bond issues, these
funds will always approximate budget. The only real chance for a variance from budget is if an actual debt
service schedule for new debt differs from a budgeted estimate.
