end
Alternative Action(s):
Direct staff to modify the Annual Report.
Analysis:
The Infrastructure Fund was established in 2002, by City Charter Section 617. Per Section 617 (a), the originally intended revenue source for the Infrastructure Fund was a planned utility use tax on natural gas purchased to generate electricity. However, this ballot measure failed. So, while the Charter amendment created the fund, it was left with no source of revenue.
Other Charter requirements related to the fund are:
• Revenue placed in the Infrastructure Fund shall not supplant existing infrastructure funding.
• General Fund expenditures for infrastructure improvements and maintenance, subsequent to 2001, shall not be reduced below 15% of general fund revenues based on a five-year rolling average.
• The Citizen’s Infrastructure Advisory Board/Public Works Commission conducts an annual review and performance audit of the Infrastructure Fund and reports its findings to the City Council prior to the City Council's adoption of the ensuing fiscal year budget.
The single substantial revenue source to the fund is General Fund excess fund balance per the Financial Policy adopted in Fiscal Year 2006/07. The Policy was revised beginning in Fiscal Year 2009/10 to allow for an Economic Uncertainties Reserve commitment. Excerpts addressing the Infrastructure Fund for the previous and current policies are shown in Attachment 1 along with Municipal Charter Section 617.
