Honorable Mayor and Council Members
City of Diamond Bar
RE: City Manager’s Recommended Budget for Fiscal Year 2022/2023
Presented for your consideration and approval, is the City’s Annual Operating
Budget and Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022/2023.
The COVID-19 global pandemic continued to be a devastating worldwide
health crisis impacting the United States, including California, Los Angeles
County and Diamond Bar. Conditions have continually improved following the
significant surge in cases fueled by the Omicron variant in January/February
2022. While not totally eradicated, there is optimism that as more persons are
vaccinated and boosted, new cases, hospitalizations and related deaths will
remain low and community spread will be held in check to allow for the State,
County and City to restore programs and services to pre-pandemic levels.
On March 11, 2021 the President signed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
which is a $1.9 trillion relief package to mitigate the continuing effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic. Of that amount, approximately $64 billion has been
allocated to provide direct and flexible financial resources for every city and
town in the nation. The City of Diamond Bar anticipates receiving a total of just
over $6.8 million in ARPA funds. These funds may be used for a broad range of
purposes including the replacement of lost revenue, restoration of City programs
and services, COVID-19 expenses not otherwise reimbursed, and projects that
help build resiliency and financial stability for the residents and businesses of the
City.
In January 2022, the U.S. Treasury issued a final rule that provides for
municipalities to attribute up to $10 million to be used on governmental services.
The City received the first installment of ARPA funds of just over $3.4 million in
June 2021, which was categorized under this “standard allowance” to replace
lost revenue, restore many City programs and services, and to balance the FY
2021/22 Budget. The City anticipates receiving the second installment of
approximately $3.4 million in July 2022 which also falls within the “standard
allowance” and has been programmed into the FY 2022/23 Budget for general
governmental services to help build resiliency and financial stability for the City,
thus generating additional one-time General Fund resources.
As a result, the proposed FY 2022/2023 Budget provides a positive outlook and
continues to restore many City programs and services, advance deferred
maintenance and Capital Improvement Projects, and focuses on key initiatives
consistent with the City’s Long-Term Financial Stability Report and Strategic Plan.
However, the City remains cautious given the pressure on rising costs driven by a
competitive labor market, higher fuel prices and the possibility that the recent
steep rise in inflation may lead to a recession.
The proposed Budget reflects the following estimated resources and
expenditures:
Estimated Resources: $31,940,212
Estimated Expenditures: $31,459,080
Net Estimated Surplus/(Deficit) $481,132
The above estimates include approximately $3.4 million in one-time General Fund
resources resulting from the ARPA funds that the City will receive as mentioned
above.
The proposed Capital Improvement Program totals $9.36 million in new projects
for FY 2022/23 and includes many of the projects that were identified for the one-
time General Fund offset related to ARPA funding.
2021-2024 Strategic Plan
Adopted by the City Council on April 7, 2020, the
2021-2024 Diamond Bar Strategic Plan remains an
aspirational guide to reaching the City Council’s
desired outcomes for the community and builds
upon past success.
The Strategic Plan includes the Vision Statement;
“Celebrating Our Roots, Building a Thriving Future”
and establishes the following Core Values:
• Community & Livability
• Transparency & Accountability
• Service & Professionalism
To meet these Core Values, the plan sets Goals, Strategies, and Key Initiatives.
Goals are the high-level aspirations that advance the Vision and Core Values.
There are three (3) overarching Goals that include:
1. Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
2. Open, Engaged and Responsive Government
3. Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community
Key Initiatives highlight some of the specific work plan items proposed to achieve
the Goals and Strategies. The Key Initiatives included in the Strategic Plan are but
a few of the many work plan items set forth by the City Council in the annual
budget. Some of the noteworthy Key Initiatives completed during FY 2021/2022
include:
• Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
o Completed the Prop 218 balloting process in both Landscape Assessment
Districts 39 and 41 where the property owners voted in favor of maintaining
the Districts with increased assessments thereby ensuring they will remain
solvent and reduce reliance on General Fund resources.
o Established a list of priority projects to utilize the one-time source of funds
provided through the American Rescue Plan Act.
o Developed functional requirements, solicited proposals and engaged in
the vendor selection process for a new Enterprise Land Management and
Permitting System.
o Secured grant funding for a feasibility study to address storm water runoff
at a future park site on Sunset Crossing Road.
• Open, Engaged and Responsive Government
o In response alleged violations of the California Voters Rights Act and
threatened litigation, the transition from at-large elections to district-based
elections was approved by the City Council commencing with the
November 2022 elections.
o Continued to deliver essential City services throughout the COVID-19
pandemic with a wide range of on-line and in-person programs and
services in building, planning, engineering, recreation, transit passes, public
meetings, and more.
o Completed a strategic organizational wide needs assessment and
developed the Employer of Choice framework as a forward-thinking
approach to create and maintain a high-performing organization and
respond to the shift in workplace norms brought on by COVID-19.
o Launched a new weekly e-newsletter sharing the latest City Hall news,
programs and project updates with the public.
• Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community
o Adopted and submitted the Draft Housing Element Update to the State
Department of Housing and Community Development.
o Completed an update to the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan.
o Continued advocacy efforts for the 57/60 Confluence Project in securing
regional, state and federal resources.
o Completed engineering design for the 57/60 Confluence Project Mainline
Improvements (Phase 3).
o Commenced construction for the renovation of the Diamond Bar Golf
Course to accommodate the necessary right-of-way for the 57/60 Mainline
Improvements (Phase 3)
o Continued construction of the Grand/Golden Springs Intersection
Improvements (57/60 Confluence Project Phase 2A).
FY 2022/2023 BUDGET SUMMARY
Estimated General Fund Resources - $31,940,212
The following highlighted items have been incorporated into the revenue
estimates:
•Property Taxes – Property tax revenue is projected to increase by 3.4% to
$6.2 million. Property Tax In Lieu of Vehicle License Fees (VLF) is projected to
increase 4.4% to $7.2 million. These revenue resources have not been
impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
•Sales Tax – Sales tax revenue continue to show signs of improvement and is
projected to increase by 6.0% $5.8 million. This amount is partially driven by
strong demand for restaurants and hotels, higher fuel prices which are
expected to remain high through most of the year, and an increase in the
City’s share of the County Sales Tax Pool which allocates taxes collected from
online sales. This amount also exceeds pre-COVID levels.
•Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) – With the reopening of the economy to travel
and gatherings, Transient Occupancy Tax is projected to increase by 30% to
$1.3 million. This amount is also above pre-COVID-19 levels.
•Gas Tax – Transfer In – Gas tax revenue transferred to the General Fund from
the Gas Tax Fund will remain flat at $1.05 million. These funds are used to
reimburse the General Fund for as-needed street maintenance not already
included in the annual Capital Improvement program.
•Current Service Charges – With the reopening of the economy and the return
of the ability to hold larger gatherings, and recreations programs, revenue
from all sources of service charges are estimated to increase included:
o Building Permit Activity – Increased by 15.7% to $1.47 million
o Facility Rentals – Increased by 119.7% to $759,250
o Recreation Programs – Increased 27.8% to $591,955
Estimated General Fund Appropriations - $31,459,080
The following highlighted items have been incorporated into the expenditure
estimates:
o Public Safety
o Law Enforcement - The FY 2022/2023 Los Angeles County Sheriff’s
Department contract amount is approximately $7.77 million, representing
the single largest line item and approximately 23.2% of proposed General
Fund expenditures. The contract amount includes a contract rate increase
of 1.45% plus a Liability Trust Fund (LTF) surcharge of 11% on each
contracted position.
The Law Enforcement Reserve Fund includes funding for up to $100,000 for
as-needed special assignments and suppression patrols which have proven
to be a cost-effective approach to reducing crime and responding to
specific public safety issues throughout the year.
o Crossing Guard Services – The City provides Crossing Guard Services at
seven (7) elementary schools and two (2) middle schools with a total of 17
guards. The total budget for crossing guard services is $280,000 which is a
$46,535 increase over the previous year’s budgeted amount.
o Animal Control - The City has contracted with the Inland Valley Humane
Society (IVHS) for animal control and licensing services since
incorporation. The IVHS contract includes the total gross cost, with ALL
licensing revenue collected to be credited to the City. The net contract
cost is the amount included in the annual operating budget. It is
anticipated that the contract will be based on a total gross cost of $499,200
which is a 4% or $19,200 increase over the past year. Based on the
anticipated licensing revenue, the overall net cost for animal control
services is expected to be $384,200 which is a 2.7% or $10,8-00 decrease
from the previous year.
o Personnel Costs:
“Human Capital Investment Program” – Each year, the City Council adopts
the Compensation and Benefits Plan for the upcoming fiscal year which
includes cost of living adjustments, and employee positions with
associated salary ranges and benefits. Regionally speaking, the City is
experiencing a considerably volatile and evolving human resources
environment. To remain an “Employer of Choice” in the region the City
must continue to reinvest in its personnel (i.e. human capital) in a manner
similar to its capital projects and infrastructure. To identify and prioritize
investment in organizational staffing and organizational structure, and to
maintain, enhance and expand City programs, the City has developed a
focused effort, led by members of the City Manager’s executive team,
referred to as the Human Capital Investment Program (HCIP).
Cost-of-Living Adjustment – The City’s Personnel Rules and Regulations
specify that the City Manager may request that the City Council authorize
a Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) for employees based on the March-
to-March rates of the federal Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Wage Earners
and Clerical Workers in Los Angeles/Orange Counties. This year’s CPI
calculation sharply rose in March 2022 to 8.67%. In order to avoid real
wage losses and remain an “Employer of Choice” in the surrounding Los
Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, it is
recommended that the salary schedules for all benefitted classifications of
employment including all executive positions, such as Department
Directors, Assistant City Manager and City Manager, be increased by 5%
in July 2022 and again by 3% in January 2023. A $50 per month increase
to the Benefit Allotment is also recommended for all benefitted
classifications of employment including the executive positions and
members of the City Council to help keep up with corresponding health
premium rate increases. The annual cost of the COLA and Benefit
Allotment increase is approximately $497,107.
Departmental Reorganizations – The City Council, through its Strategic
Plan, has made the development of a high-performing organization with
a positive, value-based culture that attracts and retains talent a priority. It
is the duty and responsibility of the City Manager to periodically review
departmental operations and staffing structures, and conduct long-term
organizational and succession planning for the efficient and cost-effective
delivery of services to the public. To continue to be known as an “Employer
of Choice” in the region and improve customer experience, a series of
reclassifications and new positions are recommended. To recognize
increased responsibilities of certain positions, it is recommended that two
existing full-time employees be reclassified from Administrative Assistant to
Administrative Coordinator, that a full-time Senior Office Specialist be
reclassified to Administrative Assistant and one Senior Maintenance
Worker be reclassified to a Facilities and Asset Maintenance Technician.
The fully burdened cost (salary plus benefits) to implement the four
reclassifications is $25,225.
Additionally, to enhance the customer service experience, increase
productivity and accuracy, and to create business process efficiency, it is
recommended that a full-time benefitted Accounting Technician and
Permit Technician be added. It is also recommended that a full-time
benefitted Neighborhood Improvement Officer be added so that a more
proactive approach to code enforcement efforts can be attained as well
as provide opportunity for as-needed weekend coverage. All three of
these new positions will be FLSA non-exempt. The City budgets for new
positions conservatively at the top step of the salary range; therefore, the
approximate cost, including benefits, to fill all three positions in FY 2022/23
is budgeted at $249,932.
It should be noted that excluding the aforementioned increases to
personnel, the total General Fund budget for full-time benefitted staff in FY
2022/23 would be $163,000 less than the prior year. This is due to retirements
of long-tenured staff as well as reduced retirement costs related to the
recruitment of new employees, and reflects the long-term trend towards
stable personnel costs for the City.
•Parks & Recreation Programs – The proposed Budget is optimistic that valuable
programs, services, and events can return to the community with the ability to
reinstate community services while focusing on participant and staff safety.
Programs and events offered this year include summer youth day camp, full
park amenities, field allocations, contract classes, picnic reservations, and
Concerts-in-the-Park. Virtual programs such as BINGO, Tiny Tots, the Windmill
Hunt, and “May the Fourth Be With You” continue to bring together a diverse
community of all ages.
Based on recent community interest and as guidelines are modified, the
gradual reopening of the Diamond Bar Center for rentals can also be
anticipated this summer. In addition, we look forward to the return of senior
activities, youth indoor sports, and other in-person activities.
Expenses for recreation programs and operations at the Diamond Bar Center
have been increased commensurate with the anticipated activities, and with
a combined budget of $3.9 million the budget has slightly surpassed pre-
COVID levels of $3.5 million. Taken alone, the Recreation Department’s
program budget of $1.25 million for FY 2022/23 represents an increase of $152
thousand year over year. Moreover, operations at the Diamond Bar Center
are budgeted at $1.48 million, and increase of $60 thousand from the prior
year.
•Lighting & Landscape Assessment Districts (LLADs) – Much work has been done
over the past two years to help address the operating deficits and reduce the
General Fund subsidies to the LLADs. In May 2021, LLAD 41 was formally
dissolved, and in July 2021, a new Prop 218 ballot process was approved by
the property owners. In January 2022, LLAD 39 was formally dissolved, and in
March 2022 a new Prop 218 ballot process was approved by the property
owners. The new assessments will make each of the Districts more sustainable
over time without reliance on General Fund resources. The total General Fund
contribution to the Districts for FY 2022/23 is budgeted at $212,000.
•Debt Service Fund – In May 2021, the City refunded the outstanding Lease
Revenue Bonds associated with the original acquisition and construction of
the Diamond Bar Center. This achieved a gross savings of $1.736 million and
present value savings of $1.633 million (or 20.85%) which translates to
approximately $144,700 in average annual debt service savings for the
remainder of the term through June 1, 2033 at an effective interest rate of
1.15%. The 2021 Bonds were rated by S&P as AA+ (top rating for this type of
bond) which is a testament to the Council’s conservative and prudent fiscal
policies. The total debt service (principal and interest) will be $716,200 for this
year.
•Capital Improvement Fund - The FY 2022-2023 Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) includes a total of $9.36 million in new projects and advances many of
those projects that were previously deferred due to COVID-19. Some of the
major CIP projects include:
o Maple Hill Park Playground/Restroom Replacement and ADA Upgrades
o Residential and Collector Street Rehab – Area 2
o Arterial Street Rehab – Golden Springs (Brea Canyon to Grand)
o ADA Curb Ramp Improvements – Area 3
o LED Illuminated Street Name Sign and Highway Safety Light Replacements
o Citywide Bus Shelter/Stop Renovations
o Groundwater Drainage Improvements - Phase 4/5 (Copley & Moon Lake)
o Diamond Bar Center Slope Stabilization Project
o Diamond Bar Center AC Replacement and Air Quality Upgrades
o Pantera Park Hard Court Rehab and LED Lighting Retrofit
o Continued Construction of the Grand/Golden Springs Intersection
Enhancement Improvements
The CIP was reviewed for consistency with the City’s General Plan at the May
10, 2022 Planning Commission Meeting.
CONCLUSION
The proposed FY 2022-2023 Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program
provides a positive outlook to restore a wide range of City programs, services and
projects following the impacts of COVID-19. It prioritizes the one-time use of
General Fund resources on projects that help build resiliency and financial
stability for the residents and businesses of the City. The strategic realignment
and reinvestment in human capital will improve the customer and resident
experience and respond to the changing needs of the organization.
I would like to thank the Executive Management Team, especially Finance
Director Jason Jacobsen and Senior Management Analyst Dannette Allen, for
their efforts in preparing this proposed Budget. I would also like to thank all of our
talented and dedicated staff for their continued and unwavering flexibility,
creativity and support in the delivery of city services.
I would like to recognize the City Council for their effective fiscal leadership and
commitment to serving the community. It is through the City Council’s forward-
thinking leadership and prudent fiscal practices, that Diamond Bar is able to
deliver a commitment to service excellence and strive to achieve our vision
“Celebrating Our Roots, Building a Thriving Future”.

In April 2017, the City Council adopted its first three-year Strategic Plan as a new approach to
establishing goals and priorities for the community. The 2017-2020 Strategic Plan was extremely
ambitious and included over 94 measurable action items consistent with the identified Vision,
Goals and Polices. By the end of Fiscal Year 2019/2020, over 95% of the action items were
completed or well underway, representing a significant and exceptional work effort.
It is now appropriate to establish priorities for the next three-year period. Building on past
successes, the 2021-2024 Diamond Bar Strategic Plan continues to be an aspirational road map
that guides the organization to realizing its core values and priorities. The Strategic Plan sets high-
level policy Goals and Strategies in support of the Vision and Core Values. The Key Initiatives
identified, along with other initiatives that will be developed and undertaken through the City’s
annual budget and in conjunction with departmental business plans, will help turn the vision into
reality. Performance Measures will be developed and utilized to demonstrate achievement,
accountability and continuous improvement.

Target: Decline
Since incorporation, the Diamond Bar
City Council has made public safety its
top priority, maintaining a fully funded
contract law enforcement program with
the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s
Department. This commitment has
resulted in Diamond Bar’s standing as
one of the safest communities in the
San Gabriel Valley.
ON TRACK
Target: Maintain
The community urban forest is the City
of Diamond Bar’s largest, most visible,
and one of its most important natural
resources. The Public Works
Department maintains over 10,000
parkway trees throughout the city. Both
environmentally and aesthetically, trees
make the City of Diamond Bar a better
place to live.
The City of Diamond Bar has proudly
been named a Tree City USA since
2000. The Tree City USA program is
designed to recognize those
communities that effectively manage
their public tree resources, and to
encourage the continuation of
community tree management based on
Tree City USA standards.
ABOVE AVERAGE
Target: 68 and above
The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is a
numerical index between 0 and 100,
with 100 representing the best possible
pavement condition and 0 representing
the worst possible pavement condition.
The PCI is an industry-standard
indicator used to determine the health
of a given section of pavement and the
type of maintenance required, if any.
The City of Diamond Bar maintains an
aggressive preventive maintenance
program to keep the roadways in good
condition. The City’s PCI is consistently
above-average when compared to
surrounding cities of similar size. In the
short term, our goal is to achieve and
maintain the Citywide PCI at 68 or
above. Assuming a consistent
availability of annual special funds, an
average annual rise in construction
costs, and no further deferred projects
due to unforeseen circumstances, the
City should be able to increase its PCI
and achieve this goal. Our long-term
goal is to increase the Citywide PCI to
70 or above. This would require the
allocation of additional funding to
expand our annual roadway
maintenance program.

City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 1
INTRODUCTION
The City Council adopted 2017-2020 Strategic Plan,
provides a dynamic roadmap to realize the
community’s future and creates a framework to
identify, evaluate, and align City goals and priorities
into one vision – “Celebrating Our Roots, Building a
Thriving Future”. This vision is supported by three
overarching goals, one of which is Responsible
Stewardship of Public Resources. An Action Item has
been established under this goal to prepare a Long-
Term Fiscal Sustainability Report, which this document
is intended to satisfy.
This forecast provides a ten-year view from Fiscal Year
(FY) 2019-20 to FY 2029-30 of the City’s General Fund,
using historical performance and economic
indicators to establish annual revenue and
expenditure estimates. With a forecast, the City
Council is better equipped to make strategic
decisions necessary to adopt a balanced budget,
achieve annual goals, and meet service
expectations.
The forecast is not a line-by-line projection of the
annual municipal budget; instead, it is an analysis of
the primary General Fund operating revenues and
expenditures used to provide core services and
programs. The forecast is an estimate based on
current and known conditions and is subject to
change based on any number of variables, many of
which are state, federal, and even international in
nature and generally outside the control of the City.
The forecast assumes current service and personnel
levels and makes no assumptions on the commitment
of future resources outside expected or known
conditions. Updates and adjustments to forecast
inputs will be made each year as a component of the
annual budget development process. It is important
to emphasize that the long-term outlook is presented
as an illustrative projection only.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 2
FORECAST METHODOLOGY
Using fiscal year 2018-19 (mid-year adjusted budget) as a baseline, future year forecasts
are established using historical analysis of actual annual revenues and expenditures,
adjusted to remove one-time factors such as developer fees and property acquisitions.
Growth rates are initially based on the Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR), a
linear growth metric used in this exercise to smooth the cyclical nature of the economy.
The historical CAGR is then adjusted based on trends or conditions known or expected
to occur during the forecast period to establish final forecast assumptions. Adjustments
may be due to changing economic conditions, local development or economic activity,
changes in service levels, and/or one-time revenues or expenditures. In the event that
there is a negative end-of-year balance, or budget deficit, the forecast assumes that
deficit is balanced during the same fiscal year using General Fund reserves.
Because the historical growth rates used in the analysis incorporate periods of economic
recession and growth, the forecast does not predict or include a defined period of
recession.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Diamond Bar was developed as one of the
first residential planned communities in Los
Angeles County and will celebrate 30
years of cityhood in 2019.
City services, programming, and facilities
have grown with the community, and the
proactive decision to operate under the
contract city model has limited pension
liability and payroll growth since
incorporation, providing a stronger
foundation to weather economic
downturns than in many other agencies.
Prudent fiscal decisions over the years built
a reserve fund that at one time reached
$32 million, providing the ability to
construct and operate new public facilities
and offer new and/or expanded services.
Now a mature and mostly built-out city,
Diamond Bar is facing new challenges to
maintain current service levels.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 3
As currently forecasted, General Fund expenditures are expected to outpace revenues
through FY 2028-29, with operating expenditures and transfers out growing at an average
of 2.86% annually and operating revenues and transfers in growing at an average of
2.02% annually. Expected operating deficits (including operating transfers out) range
from $1.3 million to $4.1 million annually over the 10-year forecast period.
Expected expenditure growth increases further when factoring in currently unfunded
capital improvement projects (CIP), resulting in forecasted deficits ranging from $2.5
million to $9.6 million. If all unfunded CIP projects proceed, deficits are expected to
reduce the General Fund reserve below the mandatory minimum contingency level of
$4.5 million by FY 2020-21.
The bottom line is that expenditures are projected to outpace revenue in coming years.
Based on this information, it will be important for the City Council to strategically prioritize
expenditures, particularly Capital Improvements and new facilities, and actively seek to
create new and enhance existing revenue resources.
Contributing Factors
Slow Revenue Growth
Diamond Bar was incorporated with the lowest property tax share of
the 88 cities in Los Angeles County. This fundamentally restricts
revenue growth, even in a hot housing market. Limited sales tax
revenue growth potential is compounded by the paradigm shift that
is the online retail marketplace. This, combined with a national
economy that is expected to slow after ten years of sustained
growth, results in slower revenue growth moving forward and limits
the City’s ability to add to the General Fund reserve.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Funding Gap
There are currently millions of dollars in unfunded CIP projects
(primarily park development and improvement projects). These
projects currently have no funding source but for General Fund
reserves.
Declining Reserve Levels
The expected value of unfunded CIP projects and rising operational
expenditures results in the rapid depletion of General Fund reserves.
Assuming current CIP projects proceed as scheduled, the General
Fund reserve will reach mandatory minimum levels by the end of FY
2020-21 and be fully exhausted by the end of FY 2021-22.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 4
Looking Ahead
By carefully analyzing this financial forecast, the City Council is able to identify future
financial challenges and make strategic decisions that will positively impact the City’s
future financial position. To achieve long-term fiscal sustainability, the City must continue
to take strategic and proactive action based on thorough due diligence.
To that end, a series of policy recommendations will be brought forward for City Council
consideration and action following the introduction of the forecast.
Increasing Operational and Maintenance Costs Associated
With Facilities and Infrastructure
Expanded services and facilities have resulted in increased
operational and maintenance costs. As facilities like the Diamond Bar
Center (15 years old in 2019), City Hall/Library (most attended public
library in the County in 2018), expanding park inventory age, and
core infrastructure age, additional investment is required to maintain
expected service levels and program functionality. Moving forward, it
is likely that the City will be forced to prioritize maintenance funding
over new construction, renovation, and/or expansion of existing
facilities.
Subsidized Lighting and Landscape Assessment Districts (LLADs)
At current service levels, LLADs 38, 39, and 41 are expected to
continue to be heavily subsidized by the General Fund throughout
the forecast period, reaching nearly $5 million in the ten-year
forecast period.
Public Safety
The City contracts with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department
to provide law enforcement services. This contract is the single
largest line item in the budget and represents approximately 22.3% of
the operating budget in FY 2018/19. In addition to expected growth
in annual personnel costs, the Liability Trust Fund surcharge is
expected to reach 12% during the forecast period.
Pension Costs
California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) has
lowered the discount rate (assumed rate of return on assets) and
adjusted actuarial assumptions, resulting in increases to annual
retirement benefit costs and the unfunded accrued liability (UAL)
annual payment.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 5
These recommendations are described in greater detail in the Next Steps section of this
report, and include, but are not limited to:
• Set Defined Priorities and Budget for Results
• Create and Adopt a Long-Term Infrastructure/Capital Improvement Plan
• Update and Expand the Fund Balance and Reserve Policy
• Pursue New Local Revenue Sources
• Reduce or Eliminate General Fund Subsidies
• Adjust Service Levels and/or Implement New and More Efficient Ways of Doing
Business
• Consider Options to Address Increasing Pension Costs
• Transition to a 15-Year Amortization Plan to Reduce CalPERS Unfunded Liability
• Establish an IRS Section 115 Trust for UAL Payments
These recommendations are not intended to be all inclusive. Each of these
recommendations, and others that may be developed over time, will require separate
analysis, review and consideration by the city council through adoption of policies, the
annual budget process, or stand-alone actions.
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Diamond Bar’s finances are closely linked to local, state, national, and international
economic conditions. To account for these impacts, key economic indicators for the
state and nation have been reviewed and incorporated into the assumptions of the
forecast, using the latest information published by economists at the UCLA Anderson
School of Management in the December 2018 Economic Forecast.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 6
U.S. and California Economy
After ten consecutive years of national economic expansion, economists are beginning
to question the sustainability of continued growth. According to the UCLA Anderson
Forecast, United States Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is expected to fall from 3.1%
in 2018 to 2.1% in 2019 and 1% in 2020, with growth tapering off in most major sectors of
the economy. California economic growth is expected to slow in the next two years but
outperform the rest of the nation.
Labor
The U.S. and California economies are operating at full employment levels
(unemployment at or below 5%), with overall rates the lowest since 2000. While a fully
employed economy generally leads to increased consumer spending, economists see
natural constraints on growth in a fully employed economy because new productivity is
difficult to achieve without increased growth in the labor force.
Federal Reserve Policy
Rising Interest Rates
Following the 2008 financial crisis, the Federal Reserve (Fed) lowered the Federal Funds
Rate to 0-0.25% in an effort to stimulate the economy with new investment. With the
economic recovery complete, the Fed has gradually increased the rates from zero to
2.5%, with the most recent increase in December 2018. It is widely believed that
additional hikes will follow in 2019 in an effort to offset inflation. As borrowing becomes
more expensive, a slowdown in growth is expected.
End of Quantitative Easing
In the aftermath of the Great Recession, the Federal Reserve pursued expansionary
monetary policy known as quantitative easing (QE), pumping trillions of dollars into the
economy via the large-scale purchase of government securities. Today, that policy has
been reversed, and the Fed is now selling tens of billions in securities per month in an
attempt to normalize monetary policy. This has reduced liquidity and will likely impact
business investment in the coming years.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 7
Inflation
Wage rates and consumer prices are trending upward. As inflation rises, purchasing
power is decreased. Accordingly, the Anderson Forecast sees a downward trend in
consumer spending growth, tapering off from a peak of 4% in the second quarter of 2018
to an expected 2% in 2020.
The City has historically used the Consumer Price Index (CPI)-Urban Wage Earners and
Clerical Workers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim region during the annual
March to March period as a key metric to track inflation. CPI has spiked since 2015, with
rates expected in the 3% range in 2019 and 2020.
Financial Markets
The Anderson Forecast notes that increasing stock market volatility associated with
overleveraged corporations and trade worries has the potential to trigger then next
recession. A trade standoff with China may have particularly significant impacts on
California, where the logistics industry is one of the fastest growing economic sectors.
Housing
According to HdL, Coren, & Cone, an industry leader in property tax analysis, December
2018 home sales in Southern California were the lowest in 11 years. Slowing sales are a
product of a number of factors, including rising interest rates, stock-market instability, and
priced out potential buyers. The median price paid for all Southern California homes sold
in December was $515,000, down 1.5% from $523,000 in the prior month, and up 1.1%
from $509,500 in December 2017.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 8
REVENUE ASSUMPTIONS
Total General Fund operating revenues (before transfers) are expected to grow by an
average of 2.02% annually during the forecast period.
It is expected that the City’s top five revenue sources will be:
• State Subventions (Property Tax in Lieu of Vehicle License Fees/VLF)
• Property Taxes
• Sales Taxes
• Service Charges
• Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT)
Property Taxes
The Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office is
responsible for determining the valuation of
property with a base tax of one percent of
assessed valuation levied annually. The City’s
1989 incorporation documents stipulate that it
will receive 5.19% of total property tax levies
collected, which happens to be the lowest
rate in the county. The majority of payments
are disbursed by the County to the City in
December and April of each year.
Proposition 13, passed by California voters in
1978, limits annual property tax assessment
growth to two percent, no matter the increase
in assessed valuation. Sales of homes to a new
owner lose Proposition 13 protections and are
reassessed at current values, producing new
revenues.
Diamond Bar housing remains desirable, with a
median home value of $725,000 according to
HdL, Coren, & Cone in November 2018. Since
2009, values have grown more than 40%,
surpassing pre-recession highs, but Zillow
expects more modest growth in 2019. An
extended economic slowdown would likely
reduce this estimate in 2020 and beyond.
For purposes of this forecast, property taxes are expected to grow at historical
averages of 3.04%.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 9
Other Taxes
Other tax revenues are expected to grow by an average 2.22% annually during the
forecast period. These include:
Sales Taxes
The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax law was enacted in 1956, imposing an
additional 1.25% tax on the standing 6% state sales tax. The state allocates the Bradley-
Burns tax revenues to local general funds and countywide transportation programs. The
City receives 1% of the 9.5% sales tax levied on retail sales in Los Angeles County in the
form of sales tax revenues. The City receives additional county-collected sales tax
revenues in the form of local return on voter-approved measures such as Measure M
(transportation) and Measure W (stormwater). Local return funds are booked as special
funds, with any transfers to the General Fund noted in the forecast.
Local sales tax revenue growth has plateaued since FY 2015-16 and is expected to
underperform historical averages due to the following factors.
Local Sales and Use Tax

Collected in
LA County - 9.5%
State County City

In addition to the 1% of sales tax, the City also receives a portion of other county-collected funds such as
Measure M (half-cent sales tax for transportation) and Measure W (parcel tax for stormwater)
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 10
Diamond Bar Major Business Sectors
Diamond Bar’s current retail infrastructure is
mainly of 1960s-80s vintage and is set up in an
in-line style to accommodate an anchor
business (usually a grocery store) with
supporting small businesses. Big box stores
are limited, and there are currently no
automobile dealerships or warehouse stores
that produce a high volume of taxable sales.
According to HdL Companies, Diamond Bar
major business sectors are primarily driven by
Business/Industry, Fuel & Service Stations, and
Restaurants/Hotels. Service stations, which
make up 22.3% of major business groups (a
figure approximately three times that of the
county and state), make Diamond Bar
heavily dependent on the sale of fuel. It is
likely that gasoline sales tax revenues will
decline as a growing number of fuel efficient
and electric vehicles hit the road.
The Gateway Corporate Center provides
professional office space and is home to
several corporate headquarters or large
regional offices, including Kaiser, SEMA, and
coming soon, Niagara Water. The Gateway
Corporate Center also presents an
opportunity to attract point-of-sale
businesses that generate sales tax revenues.
Unlike surrounding cities, Diamond Bar did not have an eligible project area during the
redevelopment era, preventing the use of tax increment financing to renovate, improve,
and modernize existing retail infrastructure and underutilized commercial areas. Thus,
new economic development opportunities are mostly limited to redevelopment of
existing commercial centers. Infill development of these centers should result in modest
revenue growth over time, but will be unlikely to result in revenue growth that outpaces
expenditures.
Changing Retail Market/Impact of Online Sales
The City’s sales tax revenues are driven by the retail sector, which is in the midst of a major
shift toward online retailers. Market trends indicate a decline in the number of new “big
box” stores (once a lynchpin of local government economic development efforts) and
a general shrinking of retail square footage footprints as internet-based retail sales take
a larger share of the market. The fundamental shift in consumer spending preferences
will likely reduce local sales tax revenues from brick-and-mortar stores moving forward.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 11
Tax revenues generated by online sales are processed differently than those from local
retail stores. In general, tax revenues generated by online sales of goods shipped from
an out-of-state location are collected in a county-wide pool and distributed based on
the total share of all sales taxes generated by the agency, no matter the point of
purchase. This means that agencies with large sales tax bases receive a greater share of
the pool, no matter the point of purchase. In the second quarter of 2018, Diamond Bar’s
share of the county-wide pool was 0.3%, making up approximately 14% of total City sales
tax revenues for that period.
Consumer Spending
According to the United States Department of Commerce, December 2018 retail sales
declined at the fastest pace since 2009, a concerning trend for future economic growth.
Franchise Taxes
The City imposes fees on utility and service providers, including electric, gas, solid waste,
and video service companies, for the use of the public right-of-way (note: these are not
utility user taxes). Franchise taxes have been a generally stable source of revenue.
However, recent trends have turned negative, primarily due to declining video service
franchise revenues which account for approximately 35% of total franchise taxes. Video
service providers across the industry are facing a declining subscriber base associated
with the plateau of local development and existing customers choosing internet-based
streaming platforms over cable/fiber services (“cord-cutting”), reducing gross revenues
and quarterly franchise payments to cities for the foreseeable future. Therefore, it is
expected that franchise tax receipts will grow at a rate underperforming historical
averages.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 12
Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT)
TOT is the local tax levied on hotel room rentals. In November 2018, the voters passed
Measure Q, which raised the rate from 10% to 14% and increased annual TOT revenue
estimates from $1.05 million to $1.5 million. The forecast assumes $400,000 in new annual
TOT revenue beginning in FY 2021-22 with the proposed opening of the City’s fourth hotel
at the former trailer storage lot on Brea Canyon Road.
Historical analysis shows annual TOT revenue growth of 5% with high variability. With the
increase in available hotel rooms and expected slowdown in consumer spending
associated with a national economic slowdown, TOT is forecasted to grow at a more
modest rate of 2.5%.
State Subventions
This very stable revenue category is mainly comprised of Property Tax in Lieu of Vehicle
License Fees. Given its long-standing reliability and low variance, the forecast assumes
continued annual growth of 3.04%.
Fines and Forfeitures
Revenues in this category are generated primarily by vehicle code and parking fines,
supplemented by municipal code, false alarm, and other fines. Vehicle Code and
parking fines have trended downward the past five years, signaling greater compliance
with regulations. The forecast reflects this revenue trend, with total revenues expected to
fall by 2% annually.
Service Charges
Service charges are imposed on services
benefitting a particular individual or group,
such as recreation programs, facility rentals for
private events, and various development
permits and services provided by the Building
and Safety, Engineering, and Planning
Divisions.
In 2017, the City Council approved a
comprehensive fee study, determining that
such personal choice services should not be
subsidized by the general public.
With service charges and fees set at full cost
recovery levels with an annual inflationary
escalator applied, the forecast assumes a
general annual growth rate matching the
historical average Consumer Price Index (CPI)
of 1.54%.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 13
In FY 2019-20, a one-time increase of approximately $530,000 is expected to be
generated by Building Fees associated with the Brea Canyon Road Hotel Development.
In the event new development is expected, revenues will be adjusted accordingly.
One-time developer fees that may arise from any future development agreements are
not assumed in the forecast.
Use of Money and Property
This category includes proceeds from
investments and rental revenues for facilities
and property, including the Diamond Bar
Center and wireless sites. Total revenues in this
category are expected to decrease by an
average 0.81% annually, primarily due to a
lack of available investment capital in the last
half of the forecast period.
The historical analysis shows a negative trend
with respect to investment income, primarily
due to a substantial drop in investment
income during the Great Recession.
Investment return rates have recovered in
recent years and expected hikes in the
Federal Reserve Rate should theoretically
continue the growth in the City’s rate of
return. However, the ambitious Capital
Improvement program expected during the
forecast period will significantly reduce
General Fund reserves, limiting cash available
for investment and tempering total return
revenue. As investment capital shrinks, so
does expected investment income.
Cost Reimbursements
Future cost reimbursements are mostly associated with invoiced public safety services
(Calvary Chapel traffic control) and public property damage payments. An annual
escalator of 2.2% is applied to capture expected annual increases to the public safety
contract that will be recovered.
From Other Agencies
In the past, the City has occasionally sold surplus Proposition A funds to other agencies
to acquire unrestricted General Fund dollars at a rate usually between 70 and 75 cents
on the dollar. Because these discretionary sales are not ongoing operational revenues,
they are not included in the forecast.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 14
Transfers In From Other Funds
For purposes of this forecast, transfers in are limited to consistent funding sources with a
defined, specific use in funding General Fund operations. The City expects to receive
additional funding sources in FY 2019-20 due to new Measure W (stormwater
management) and Measure A (parks capital project and maintenance) funds, with
annual average growth plateauing at 0.30% thereafter.
Gas Tax
After being programmed for eligible CIP projects, a portion of annual state Gas Tax
revenues are transferred in to the General Fund to offset costs associated with Public
Works administration/street maintenance.
Measure W (Stormwater Management)
In 2018, voters passed Measure W, a parcel tax with proceeds used to comply with
Federal Water Quality Act mandates. Local return is expected to be approximately
$900,000 annually, which upon release of program guidelines, is expected to offset
approximately $221,000 in Public Works-Engineering operational costs beginning in FY
2019-20. Funds may also be used to fund future stormwater-related CIP projects.
Measure A (Parks Capital Projects and Maintenance)
In 2016, voters passed Measure A, a parcel tax with proceeds used to fund park
improvements and maintenance in Los Angeles County. Diamond Bar’s total local return
is expected to begin at approximately $229,011 in FY 2019-20.
Citizens Option for Public Safety (COPS) Fund
The City receives approximately $100,000 in federal grant funding under the COPS
program. Historically, this funding has been appropriated to cover law enforcement
contract costs for the Law Enforcement Technician (LET) position. The current cost of the
LET position exceeds the annual grant amount and is offset by COPS fund reserves. The
forecast assumes no growth in grant revenue beyond the $100,000 annual payments. The
fund currently has sufficient reserves to fully absorb annual LASD personnel cost increases
through FY 2022-23.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 15
Law Enforcement Reserve Fund
The Law Enforcement Reserve Fund was established in FY 2012-13 to bank annual savings
for future law enforcement-related expenditures. The forecast assumes an annual
transfer of $100,000 to fund special operations and suppression patrols until the current
fund balance is fully exhausted.
EXPENDITURE ASSUMPTIONS
Total operating expenditures and transfers out are expected to grow by an average of
2.86% annually during the forecast period. Growth rates increase on an annual basis
when including CIP expenditures.
It is expected that the City’s top five expenditures will be:
Contract
Services

Percentage calculations based on anticipated Fiscal Year 2019-20 expenditures.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 16
Contract Services
Total contract services costs are expected to
grow by an average of 3.27% annually during
the forecast period, driven primarily by
increasing law enforcement services costs.
As a contract city, Diamond Bar retains
outside contractors to perform many essential
city functions, including, but not limited to
public safety services (law enforcement, fire
and animal control), legal services, building
and safety services, specialized engineering
services, library services and components of
park, facility, street and tree maintenance,
among others. As such, contract services
represent the City’s largest ongoing
operational expenditure, making up 45.5% of
the baseline FY 2018-19 General Fund
operating budget. The City does not incur
ongoing payroll costs and retirement liability
for services provided under contract.
The law enforcement contract with the Los
Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) is
the City’s single-largest contract service,
accounting for 61.2% of total contract services
costs and 22.3% of the General Fund
operating budget in FY 2018-19. The LASD
contract is made up of two annual
adjustment factors; a base personnel cost
adjustment and the Liability Trust Fund (LTF)
amount, which is a variable rate assessed on
the base personnel cost. The LTF is expected
to remain at or above the current 10.5% rate,
adding a premium to annual law
enforcement costs.
Fire services are provided by the Los Angeles County Fire Department, which is funded
via a Fire District parcel tax imposed by the County.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 17
Personnel Services
Diamond Bar’s contract services model has limited growth in payroll and retirement costs
over the years. According to the State Controller’s Office, Diamond Bar’s 2017 average
annual employee compensation and retirement benefits were significantly less than the
average of California’s 480 cities.
During the forecast period, total personnel costs are expected to grow by an average of
3.06% annually during the forecast period, a figure that is less than that of contract
services. The expected growth is driven mostly by growing retirement benefit costs.
Salaries & Benefit Allotment
Diamond Bar employees are currently unrepresented, so future salary and benefit
allotment adjustments are at the sole discretion of the City Council and not subject to
existing or future collective bargaining agreements as in most cities. Historically, it has
been the practice of the City Council to provide employees a CPI-based cost-of-living
adjustment and a $50 increase to the monthly benefit allotment with the adoption of the
annual budget. The forecast accounts for these assumptions, plus the cost of eligible
merit increases and the ramp-up of part-time wage costs to meet new state minimum
wage mandates.
Retirement Benefits
Diamond Bar employees are members of the California Public Employees Retirement
System (CalPERS). Classic members participate in the 2% at 55 formula, while new
members hired after January 1, 2013 participate in the 2% at 62 formula under the Public
Employee Pension Reform Act (PEPRA). While not expected to have a significant impact
on the City’s retirement benefit costs in the forecast period, costs should decrease over
time as PEPRA members with lower benefits are added to the City’s retirement plan. As
a contract city, Diamond Bar does not incur any liability for law enforcement or fire
personnel retirement costs.

CalPERS Classic and PEPRA Annual Expense & Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) Payment
In December 2016, CalPERS released updated actuarial assumptions for retiree life
expectancy and announced it was lowering its discount rate from 7.5% to 7.0% over a
three-year period, resulting in increases to annual pension contributions and payments
to pay down unfunded accrued liability (UAL) balances. The UAL is the amortized dollar
amount needed to fund past service credit earned for members who are active
members, currently receiving benefits, or other members entitled to deferred benefits as
of the valuation date. As of the most recent CalPERS Actuarial Valuation, the Diamond
Bar UAL is estimated to be $5,688,786 on June 30, 2019.
As a CalPERS member agency, the City pays an annual amount based on payroll. The
annual rate is expected to grow from 16.586% of payroll in FY 2019-20 to 17.206% of payroll
for the remainder of the forecast period. This rate increase results in average growth of
3.47% annually during the forecast period.
CalPERS has established a default 30-year UAL payment schedule for all member
agencies. The City currently takes advantage of an annual early payment program,
which reduces payments by 3.5%. UAL costs are expected to grow by an average of
4.69% annually during the forecast period. Under the current payment schedule, the
City’s UAL balance would be paid off in 2046.
CalPERS Comparison
A recent staff survey finds Diamond Bar’s annual expense rate (the percentage of
payroll) and UAL are lower than that of comparative local agencies in the immediate
area. This is due to a number of factors, including Diamond Bar’s status as a recently
incorporated community with a contract city model, small workforce, and contract law
enforcement and fire services. According to CalPERS, Diamond Bar has the highest
funded ratio and lowest UAL payment of the agencies included in the sample below:

City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 19
Operating Expenditures
Total operating expenditures are expected to
grow by an average of 4.57% annually during
the forecast period, driven primarily by
increased maintenance and operational
costs associated with City facilities. Popular
facilities like City Hall/Library and Diamond
Bar Center and new parks like Diamond
Canyon and Larkstone are expected to have
increased expected annual maintenance
and utilities costs to maintain service
expectations as the facilities age. Likewise,
investments in e-government initiatives
improve efficiency and service, but generate
ongoing maintenance costs. Further
expansion of facilities via CIP during the
forecast period will also impact future
expenditures.
Professional Services
Total professional services costs are expected
to grow with CPI . However, professional
services expenditures can be volatile based
on changing needs such as special legal
services or projects and are subject to future
policy direction related to an increase in
service levels.
Capital Outlay
Capital outlay expenditures have been adjusted, removing one-time real estate
purchases. Given the high variability in this category, the adjusted average is used as the
baseline with annual CPI adjustments. Future one-time capital purchases will be added
to the forecast when known or expected.
Supplies
Expenditures for supplies have increased since the acquisition of the City Hall/Library
facility. Given ongoing operational needs associated with the facility (which houses most
visited library in the County system), it is assumed that costs will match the 2.62% average
growth since FY 2012-13.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 20
Operating Transfers Out
The fund consists of transfers out of the General Fund to special funds charged with
paying for ongoing operational costs. These include the following transfers:
Debt Service Fund
Transfers fund the fixed annual payments on the municipal bond issued to fund the
construction of the Diamond Bar Center. The average annual budgetary impact during
the forecast period is $864,456. As currently financed, the bond remaining bond amount
of $8,775,000 will be fully paid off in FY 2032-33.
Self-Insurance Fund
Transfers fund annual California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) premiums and
are dependent upon a complicated actuarial formula based on the previous five years
of performance. The annual estimate of $376,445 is based on the average contribution
over the past five fiscal years and is subject to change based on claim history.
Lighting and Landscape Assessment Districts 38, 39, and 41 (LLADs)
Transfers to Lighting and Landscape Assessment Districts 38 (citywide), 39
(medians/slopes), and 41 (southwest portion of the city) subsidize assessment revenues.
Since FY 2008-09, the General Fund has subsidized the LLADs in the cumulative amount
of $1,969,834. Total subsidies for the ten-year period are estimated to exceed $4.9 million.
Equipment Maintenance and Replacement Fund
Transfers fund the maintenance and replacement of the City’s equipment, hardware,
and software applications. Recent use has focused on technology infrastructure and
enterprise system replacement, including new Recreation and Finance systems. A
minimum of $350,000 annually is required to maintain existing technology hardware and
software components, which provide the backbone of the City’s customer service.
Transfers Out to CIP Fund
These transfers account for one-time capital projects of which insufficient special funds
are available. Funding is sourced from annual General Fund budgetary surplus (if
available) or from reserves.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 21
Historically, the City has pursued an ambitious CIP
program, making particularly excellent use of special
funds to complete street maintenance, traffic
mitigation, and other infrastructure projects. With voters
passing Measure M and rejecting a proposed repeal of
SB 1 transportation funds, the City’s current efforts to
maintain and improve traffic and transportation
infrastructure are expected to remain funded without
General Fund subsidy throughout the forecast period.
With special funds largely unavailable for other capital investments, including park and
facility construction, maintenance, and renovation projects, the use of General Fund
reserves is required. The forecast assumes the following projects will be funded using
General Fund Reserves. Cost estimates and projects are subject to change based on City
Council policy direction and/or unforeseen maintenance requirements.
Projects are limited to known projects through FY 2022-23 and do not include
unanticipated new maintenance requirements or newly desired construction projects
that may arise in FY 2023-24 and beyond. Without special funding sources, these CIP
projects will result in additional General Fund reserve requirements, provided such
reserves remain available. Also, the implementation of capital projects that result in new
or expanded facilities will result in corresponding increases to annual maintenance and
operations costs in future budgets.
NEXT STEPS
Proactive decisions are required to maintain the City’s long-term financial sustainability.
The following options are presented to the Council to address current and future
conditions and are not intended to be all inclusive as others may be developed. All
options will require separate analysis, consideration, and approval by the City Council
through policies, the annual budget process, or other standalone actions.
Budget and Policy
Set Defined Budgetary Priorities
Diamond Bar has enjoyed a long period of financial flexibility, buoyed by a large General
Fund reserve. Over the years, that reserve has been utilized to expand services and
facilities, shrinking the reserve while adding to ongoing costs. The forecast indicates that
the continued use of reserves may be unsustainable. Because resources and service
levels are linked, clear priorities and expectations should be established with the
development and approval of the budget process.
Budgetary priorities should be based on approved Strategic Plan goals and priorities and
community input. Once priorities are established, available resources should allocated
to meet those specific ends. This approach ensures that the approved budget meets
community priorities in the most efficient manner, maximizes limited resources, and sets
the framework to measure outcomes effectively.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 22
Create and Adopt a Long-Term Infrastructure/Capital Improvement Plan
To manage the significant, ongoing costs of capital projects, the Council should review
and adopt a long-term (no less than five-year) Infrastructure and Capital Improvement
Plan. This planning document would be reviewed and approved by the City Council
annually to categorize, prioritize and sequence projects and identify funding sources.
Methods of prioritization may include:
• Protection of public Health & Safety (repair of damage to public property,
mitigation of a hazard, etc.) versus discretionary projects.
• Funding source (available special funds versus use of General Fund reserves).
• Available personnel resources/likelihood of completion in current budget year.
• Delay unfunded/General Fund reserve-funded projects until special funds are
available.
Update and Expand the Fund Balance and Reserve Policy
Set clear and defined policy for revenue management and distribution. Provisions for
consideration may include:
• Raise mandatory minimum reserve level above $4.5 million, which represents
approximately 18% of FY 2018-19 operating expenditures.
• Restrict use of reserves to one-time expenditures only (no ongoing maintenance
or operational costs) unless a fiscal emergency is declared.
• If reserves are used, require a plan to replenish the balance within a defined
period.
• Plan for future recessions by establishing guidelines for when there is a year-end
budgetary surplus or other one-time windfall. Seed maintenance and CIP funds
to build reserves for future projects. Create such funds where they do not yet
exist.
Revenues & Expenditures
Pursue New Local Revenue Sources
State mandates have taken their toll on local agencies over many years and recently
passed county tax measures provide a local return that is a fraction of the community’s
total contribution. Local tax measures offer long-term revenue sources that can fund
specific CIP projects, public safety, and other core services and cannot be siphoned by
the state. Options include a local sales tax, business license tax, and/or parcel tax,
among others.
Reduce General Fund Subsidies
Conduct an audit of significant services and programs currently subsidized with General
Fund dollars and present findings to the City Council for policy direction, including, but
not limited to: LLADs 38, 39, and 41, transit programming, and free facility and field use.
Reduction or elimination of current subsidies provides resources to reduce deficits, fund
CIP projects, or seed prioritized reserve accounts.
City of Diamond Bar | 2019 Long-Term Financial Forecast Report 23
Analyze and Adjust Service
Levels/Implement New Ways of Doing
Business
Regularly assess services and programs for
effectiveness and compliance with city-
wide strategic priorities by analyzing the
scope, cost, and performance measures
associated with each.
Data reveals opportunities for action and
findings of this analysis will allow for strategic
decisions to be made regarding the
allocation of resources, keeping in mind
long-term fiscal impacts. In some cases this
may mean adjusting service level
expectations or finding new ways of doing
business to match changing priorities and
needs using resources in the most strategic
way possible.
Managing Pension Costs
Transition to a 15-Year Amortization Plan to
Reduce CalPERS Unfunded Liability
The City can realize significant savings by
transitioning from the default 30-year
payment period to the alternative 15-year
option. The 15-year option, with the City
taking continued advantage of the 3.5%
early-payment discount, would increase
total UAL expenditures by an average of
$79,242 annually, but set the City on a course
to realize savings of approximately $1.9
million upon UAL payoff in 2033.
Establish an IRS Section 115 Trust
The City can establish an IRS Section 115
Trust, segregating agency funds from
general assets, for the purpose of meeting
future pension contributions and/or liabilities.
By setting aside funds in a 115 trust, the City
can potentially earn a higher rate of return
and those monies can be used to ease
budgetary pressures resulting from increased
employer contribution rates.

be provided in the coming year and reflects strategic priorities set by the City Council.
The City of Diamond Bar's budget is designed to serve five major purposes:

California, Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) financial reporting requirements and
audit standards, and fiscal directions of the City Council.
2. Prepare the budget in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles using the modified
accrual basis of accounting.
3. Utilization as an operations guide for administrative staff in the management and control of fiscal resources.
4. Presentation of the City's financial plan for the ensuing fiscal year, itemizing projected revenues and
estimated expenditures.
5. Illustration as a communications document for citizens who wish to understand the operations and
costs of City services.
WHAT IS THE BUDGET?
City of Diamond Bar Budget
Fiscal Year 22/23
w ww.diamondbarca.gov
The City of Diamond Bar's annual operating budget is prepared in conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP), using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method of
accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become measurable and available
to finance expenditures of the current fiscal period while expenditures are recognized in the accounting period in
which the liability is incurred.
Each of the City's funds is considered a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts that
records assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenue and expenditures. Funds are established and segregated for the
purpose of recording specific programs or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations,
restrictions, or limitations.
The General Fund accounts for all the general revenue of the City not specifically levied or collected for other City
funds and for expenditures related to rendering the general services provided by the City. The City of Diamond
Bar has twenty-nine Special Revenue Funds that are used to account for specific revenues that are legally
restricted to expenditure for particular purposes. The Capital Project Fund is used to account for the purchase or
construction of major capital facilities. The Debt Service Fund is used to account for principal and interest
payments on outstanding fixed rate bonds. Internal Service Funds are used to account for goods and services
provided to other departments within the City such as liability insurance and equipment replacement.
The budget is prepared on a line item basis by fund and department. The six major General Fund divisions are:
1. Legislative
2. Administration & Support
3. Public Safety
4. Community Development
5. Parks & Recreation
6. Public Works
BASIS OF BUDGETING
City of Diamond Bar Budget
Fiscal Year 22/23
w ww.diamondbarca.gov
BUDGET AMENDMENT PROCESS
The City Manager is responsible to the City Council for the faithful execution of the City Budget. In order to
ensure authorized expenditures are managed in the most efficient and economical manner possible, the City
Council authorizes the City Manager to increase or transfer appropriations within the General Fund, Special
Revenue Fund or any other unrestricted Fund. The City’s budget may be amended in the following ways:
- If a fund has an Undesignated Fund Balance during the Fiscal Year, the City Manager may approve
requests for budget increases with Council approval.
- Budget adjustments between a department’s line items with a null effect on the overall department budget
may be made with the City Manager’s approval.
During the fiscal year, the City Council may modify approved programs and activities or implement new activities that
may require budget amendments. On such occasions when the Council approves a project without amending the
budget, that approval will constitute authority for the Finance Director to amend the budget subject to the City
Manager’s approval.

FUND STRUCTURE
City of Diamond Bar Budget
Fiscal Year 22/23
w ww.diamondbarca.gov
The City’s budget development is shaped by several financial and operational polices. These policies promote
and ensure organizational continuity, consistency, transparency, and responsibility from year to year. This
section identifies some of the major short and long-term planning documents, financial and operational policies,
and fiscal management tools that the City of Diamond Bar employs in order to guarantee fiscal and
programmatic integrity and to guide the development of the City’s budget.
Annual Budget and Financial Reporting Policy
The purpose of this policy is to ensure a balanced annual operating budget and reporting procedures to
safeguard public funds and maximize resources available for use by the City in delivering programs and
services.
CAL Card Use Policy
The City of Diamond Bar has joined the CAL Card program which is administered through the State General
Services Division and US Bank. This program provides a mechanism for government agencies to provide
purchasing cards to their employees to expedite purchases of goods and services. This policy sets forth policies
and procedures for CAL Card usage.
Compensation for City Commissioners/Committee Members
The purpose of this policy is to establish compensation for attendance at Commission/Committee Meetings for
City Commissioners/Committee Members.
Drawing Warrants and Checks Upon City Funds
California State law requires the Mayor and City Clerk to execute and countersign all warrants and checks
issued for payment from City funds. Government Code Section 37203 provides that the City Council may
prescribe an alternative method for drawing warrants and checks. Through adoption of this Policy, the City
Council established an alternative method to insure the timely drawing of warrants and checks upon City funds.
Travel, Expense and Reimbursement Policy
The City of Diamond Bar recognizes the value of attendance by City officials and employees at professional
conferences, seminars, meetings with other government officials, professional organizations, community
organizations, and constituents and ceremonial events and activities that promote or benefit the City. This
policy establishes travel authorization, expense, reimbursement, and reporting standards consistent with the
provisions of this policy and in compliance with California Government Code Sections 53232.2 and 53232.3.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
City of Diamond Bar Budget
Fiscal Year 22/23
w ww.diamondbarca.gov
Fixed Asset Capitalization and Inventory Control Policy
The purpose of this policy is to ensure adequate control and appropriate use of City fixed assets. The
procedures are intended to define fixed assets and to establish guidelines for budgeting, purchasing and
disposing fixed assets. This policy does not apply to infrastructure assets.
Anti-Fraud Policy
To establish policy and procedures for clarifying acts that are considered to be fraudulent, describing the steps to
be taken when fraud or other related dishonest activities are suspected, and providing procedures to follow in
accounting for missing funds, restitution and recoveries.
Cash Handling Policy
The purpose of this policy is to safeguard public funds and also to maximize resources available for use
by the City in delivering programs and services. These policies recognize the decentralized nature of the
receipting and depositing process, while providing for standardized procedures.
Fund Balance and Reserves Policy
The purpose of this policy is to establish a key element of the financial stability of the City by setting guidelines
for fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is an important measure of economic stability. It is essential that the
City maintain adequate levels of unassigned fund balance to mitigate financial risk that can occur for
unforeseen revenue fluctuations, unanticipated expenditures, and other unexpected circumstances. The fund
balance also provides cash flow liquidity for the City's general operations.
Capital Financing and Debt Management Policy
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines for the City's utilization of capital financing and debt
for capital improvement projects, property acquisition, and projects whose useful life will exceed the
term of the financing.
Unclaimed Funds Policy
The purpose of this policy is to establish the proper disposition and accounting for unclaimed money in
accordance with Government Code Sections 50050 through 50056.
Investment Policy
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines for the prudent investment of the City's temporarily idle cash
and to outline the policies for maximizing the efficiency of the City's cash management system. The ultimate
goal is to enhance the economic status of the City while protecting its pooled funds in accordance with the
applicable local, state and federal laws.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUE
Vehicle License Fee (VLF) - Property In-Lieu Tax
The Motor Vehicle In-Lieu fee is a tax on the ownership of a vehicle in place of taxing vehicles as personal
property. The tax rate used to be 2%, and then the rate was cut by 67.5% which greatly affected the
revenue allocated to the City by the State. VLF has now been totally eliminated. To fill the gap created by
the cut the State instituted a property tax swap where the City receives additional property tax to offset the
loss of VLF. These funds are included in the budget as VLF Property Tax in Lieu revenue.

FUND DESCRIPTION
The City receives funds from Sections 2105, 2106, 2107, and 2107.5 of the Streets and Highway Code. State
law requires that these revenues be recorded in a Special Revenue Fund, and that they be utilized solely for
street related purposes such as new construction, rehabilitation or maintenance. It is anticipated that the City
will use Gas Tax Funds to fund ongoing street maintenance programs to the extent possible. Any remaining
funds will be used to assist in the funding of the City's Capital Improvement Project Program. Beginning in FY
2011/2012, the State replaced Prop 42 funds with Highway Users Tax.

FUND DESCRIPTION
This fund was established to account for the governmental debt incurred by the City. To date that has only been the
2002 bonds used to acquire and construct the Diamond Bar Center. In June 2021 those bonds were refinanced with the
2021 bonds to improve the cost of repaying those original bonds. The fund will account for the payment of principal,
interest and other administrative costs incurred to service the bonds. For the only bond issue currently outstanding, the
General Fund makes a transfer to the Debt Service Fund to provide the resources to meet its obligations. The current
bonds mature June 1, 2033 and the outstanding amount on the refinancing bonds is approximately $6,700,000.

Article XIIIB of the California State Constitution, more commonly referred to as the Gann Initiative or Gann Limit, was approved by
California voters in November 1979 and placed limits on the amount of proceeds of taxes that state and local governmental
agencies can receive and spend in one year.
The limit is different for each agency and the limit changes each year. Each year's limit is based on the amount of tax proceeds
that were authorized to be spent in fiscal year 1978-79 in each agency, modified for changes in inflation and population in each
subsequent year. For cities which incorporated after 1978-79, such as the City of Diamond Bar, the initial appropriations limit was
set by the voters at the time of incorporation. The City of Diamond Bar's base year is 1989-90.
Each year the City Council must adopt, by resolution an appropriations limit for the following year. The factor that the City uses to
compute the appropriation limit is based on the growth factor of the County population change over the prior year and the
change in the California per capita income. By using this factor the City will have an appropriation limit of $57,026,785 for FY
2022-2023.
