<br /> General Fund Reserves and Fund Balance —As previously noted, Staff is proposing
<br /> to allocate $1,230,000 from General Fund reserves to the LPFD Workers Compensation
<br /> Fund, which results in General Fund reserves of $30.6 million. The City's reserve policy
<br /> requires a minimum reserve equal to 20 percent of operating expenses, a target of 25
<br /> percent and a maximum of 30 percent. The proposed General Fund reserve of $30.6
<br /> million equals 26 percent of the General Fund operating expenses.

<br /> Water Operations and Maintenance Fund — As shown in Table 5 on the following
<br /> page, recommended changes to the Water Operations and Maintenance Fund include a
<br /> net decrease of $5,674 in expenditures and no change in revenues.
<br /> The net decrease in expenditures includes a $121,674 reduction in Personnel reflecting
<br /> attrition savings and reallocation of staff to the Sewer Operating Fund that is off-set by
<br /> the following increases: (1) $16,000 to cover Tyler Munis Utility Billing support, (2)
<br /> $25,000 for a new membership to ACWA, (3) $25,000 for additional rental generators
<br /> for use during power outages, and (4) $50,000 for PG&E rate increases.
<br /> The result of these adjustments is an increase of the net income of$1.9 million and an
<br /> estimated ending fund balance of $11.4 million which equals 40 percent of the total
<br /> operating expenses. The City's policy requires reserves equal to a minimum of 30
<br /> percent, a maximum of 40 percent and a target of 35 percent.
