FY 2023-24 Third Quarter Budget Report and Proposed Appropriation Adjustments
<br />June 4, 2024
<br />Page 4
<br />revenues collected for the third quarter were $3,755,757, representing only 53%
<br />of the annual budget estimate of $7,041,000. Therefore, staff has decreased the
<br />annual revenue for plan check by $2,777,860. When the building code changed
<br />in December 2022 there was a rush to get plans in under the old code. That FY
<br />2022-23 rush and the high interest rate environment has resulted in a slowdown
<br />of activity for FY 2023-24. The overall net revenue reduction is $1,318,960
<br />($1,458,900 increase + $2,777,860 decrease).
<br />As reported previously, due to the PP-GEMT program of increased
<br />reimbursements for Medicare and Medi-Cal transports, Paramedic Service
<br />Charge revenue has increased. As a result, staff is recommending another
<br />increase of $4,173,785, which brings the revised budget to a total of
<br />$14,173,785.
<br />The jail revenue continues to decline due to staffing challenges and deferred
<br />maintenance, which prevents the jail from operating at full capacity. Therefore,
<br />staff recommends a decrease of $4,200,000 in jail revenue, bringing the revised
<br />budget total to $12,950,000. While the City continues to develop a plan to
<br />improve hiring at the jail, the FY 2024-25 budget includes recommendations to
<br />improve maintenance. Both solutions will be necessary to generate additional
<br />revenue
