<br />DISCUSSION
<br />FY2023-24 Revenue
<br />•The current budget for the Bradley Burns sales tax allocation is $64,715,000.
<br />Actual revenue received in FY22-23 was only $61,068,452. Therefore, staff has
<br />adjusted the FY23-24 revenue estimate to $62,515,000 (a budget reduction of
<br />$2,200,000, but a 2.4% increase from FY22-23).
<br />•The budget for Measure X sales tax is $88,616,000. Actual revenue received in
<br />FY22-23 was only $86,849,806. The City’s sales tax consultant has noted we
<br />are experiencing a decrease in new vehicle sales and taxable construction
<br />materials, which are having a greater impact on Measure X revenue. Therefore,
<br />staff has adjusted the FY23-24 revenue estimate to $85,916,000 (a reduction of
<br />$2,700,000 and a 1% further decrease from FY22-23).
<br />•Increase Hotel Visitor’s Tax by $1 million, from $8.5 million to $9.5 million, based
<br />on normal collections received in FY22-23.
<br />•Increase Electric Utility Users Tax by $1.7 million, from $15.1 million to $16.8
<br />million, based on normal collections received in FY22-23.
<br />•Increase Business License Tax by $1 million, from $15 million to $16 million, to
<br />align current year estimates with prior year actuals.
