Page 1 of 3 REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL To:Honorable Chair and Members of the Measure Z Citizen Committee From:Jason Simpson, City Manager Prepared by:Brendan Rafferty, Assistant Administrative Services Director Date:June 12, 2024 Subject:Fiscal Year 2023-24 Measure Z Budget Spending Plan Update Recommendation Receive and file the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Measure Z Budget Spending Plan Update. Background On November 3, 2020, residents of Lake Elsinore voted in favor of Measure Z, a locally controlled one-cent, or one percent, transaction and use tax to generate unrestricted general fund dollars to address City service, public safety, and local recovery needs. Measure Z is formally codified in Chapter 3.30 of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, available online on the City's website. The Measure Z Citizen Committee's primary role is to independently review and provide advice and guidance concerning the expenditure of Measure Z revenues. The Committee is tasked with meeting in a public forum at least twice each calendar year to ensure funding is being used consistent with the community's established goals and needs. Specifically, the Committee must annually review and report on the City's proposed and actual expenditure of proceeds generated by the transactions and use tax, along with reviewing the independent annual audit of those revenues and expenditures prepared by a Certified Public Accounting firm. The Committee's report shall then be submitted to the City Council for review and discussion at the next City Council meeting. FY 23-24 Measure Z Spending Update Page 2 of 3 Discussion Before the passage of Measure Z, the City engaged residents and businesses as part of its Let's Talk Lake Elsinore campaign to identify the community's needs. Based on this effort and ongoing community opinion surveys, residents identified the following spending priorities: •Preparing for any public health or catastrophic emergency •Having adequate 911 emergency capacity •Continuing to address homelessness and supporting residents and families in transition •Improving fire protection and paramedic services •Keeping public areas safe, healthy, and clean •Continuing law enforcement services, including effectively staffed neighborhood patrols •Supporting residents and local businesses through our local recovery The City identified Measure Z projects for the Fiscal Year 2023-24 as outlined in the attached Measure Z Budget Spending Plan based on the priorities identified by the community. Staff estimated the City will have approximately $31.4 million in Measure Z funds for the Fiscal Year 2023-24. This amount includes fund balance, revenues, and investment earnings. The table below is a summary of budgeted expenditures: While the City has made great strides toward maintaining our streets and roads recently, many of our local streets have not been repaired or resurfaced in more than 20 years. Many projects have been included to address the community's desire to pave roads, fix potholes, and repave our streets while completing deferred maintenance in the City's parks and other facilities. This year's improvements include Cambern Avenue widening, Central Avenue and Dexter Avenue traffic modifications, and a traffic light at Dexter Avenue and 3rd Street. In addition, funding has been included to help keep Lake Elsinore healthy, safe, clean, and well- maintained by adequately addressing homelessness, resolving public safety issues throughout the City, and supporting the community through the pandemic.
