<br />The General Fund balance at June 30, 2022 is $16 million more than estimated during
<br />the FY 2022-23 budget process primarily due to FY 2021-22 revenue performance.
<br />Staff proposes spending adjustments totaling $3.3 million, offset by $1.4 million of
<br />revenue, for a net fiscal impact of $1.9 million. If the City Council approves the
<br />recommendations, the General Fund balance available for spending may be $19.9
<br />million. Considering the effects of pending recession and the Cannabis tax rate
<br />reductions, staff does not recommend any further appropriations from the available
<br />$19.9 million. In addition, staff recommends preserving a spendable balance sufficient
<br />to fund the City’s $13 million contribution to the forthcoming Third & Broadway project if
<br />the developer meets the December 31, 2022 deadline for closing escrow.

<br />Fund balance was $76.2 million, including the 18% Reserve of $70.2 million and $6.0
