Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Three-Year Cooperation Agreement with the Los Angeles County
Development Authority (LACDA) to Participate in the Los Angeles Urban
County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program for Fiscal
Years 2027-28 Through 2029-30.
STRATEGIC GOAL: Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2026-14 approving the City's continued participation in the Los Angeles Urban County
CDBG Program and the execution of the 2027-2030 Cooperation Agreement between Los Angeles County
and the City of Diamond Bar.
.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City receives approximately $275,000 in CDBG funds annually. All expenditures associated with the CDBG
Program are funded through the City’s annual CDBG Grant allocation process and approved separately by
the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
Diamond Bar has been a participating city in the Los Angeles Urban County Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) Program since July 1991. The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) administers
the program and allocates CDBG funds received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) to participating cities.
In order to participate in the CDBG Program, LACDA must requalify with HUD every three years to obtain
entitlement status as an Urban County. LACDA then requires participating cities to enter into a three-year
Cooperation Agreement with the County. The current agreement will expire June 30, 2027.
HUD has traditionally required cities to execute their Cooperation Agreements with LACDA no later than mid-
June of the prior year. However, staffing reductions at HUD have delayed its release of the annual Community
Planning and Development (CPD) Notice containing the requalification instructions and the submission due
dates for the next three-year period. As a result, LACDA's attorneys have not drafted an updated Cooperation
Agreement template. To streamline the execution of the Cooperation Agreements, LACDA is encouraging its
participating cities to plan ahead by recommending that their city councils consider adopting resolutions
Page 42 of 405
Agenda Item #: 6.4
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
authorizing their city managers to execute the forthcoming agreements, subject to approval as to form by
their city attorneys.
The attached Resolution (Attachment 1) provides the necessary authorization for the Mayor to sign the
Cooperation Agreement, and authorization for the City Manager to sign other documents necessary to
administer the CDBG Program.
CDBG projects funded by the City of Diamond Bar have included allocations toward public services programs,
public works projects, and housing programs. Currently, CDBG funding is provided for the Home Improvement
Program and ADA curb ramp improvements.
As a participant in the Urban County CDBG Program, the City retains control over funding decisions for the use
of CDBG funds subject to CDBG Program regulations. CDBG program administration is currently provided by
City staff with the assistance of a consultant to prepare the annual project descriptions and summaries,
quarterly performance reports, County and federal CDBG reports and documents, prevailing wage
monitoring, and to ensure compliance with federal requirements and guidelines.
The County provides staff resources and assistance to the participating cities, including preparation of the
Consolidated Five-Year and Annual Plans and Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report, oversight
of the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) and IDIS Reports, support for CDBG/HUD
environmental review and clearances, CDBG program training, and assistance with monitoring and audits.
ANALYSIS:
CDBG “entitlement communities” are designated as cities in a metropolitan statistical area, cities with
populations of at least 50,000 and qualified urban counties with populations of at least 200,000. The City of
Diamond Bar qualifies as an entitlement community and is eligible to apply for CDBG funds directly from the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As an entitlement community, the City would be
responsible for all HUD planning, reporting, and compliance requirements.
LACDA has invited the City to continue its participation in the Urban County CDBG Program for another three-
year period. Although eligible to become an entitlement community, Diamond Bar has thus far opted to
remain in the Urban County CDBG Program in order to utilize the personnel and technical resources provided
by LACDA.
Should the City of Diamond Bar decide to become an entitlement community, the City would be allowed to
use twenty percent (20%) of the CDBG allocation for administration expenses. However, there would be
increased reporting requirements and compliance obligations, as the City would be solely responsible for
program compliance. Entitlement cities typically retain dedicated staff and consultants to administer day-to-
day program operations and federal reporting requirements. In addition, the City would be assigned a HUD
Program Manager to monitor the City’s performance and provide training and technical assistance.
If the City were to become an entitlement city, the annual CDBG allocation could increase or decrease based
on the national CDBG funding pool. HUD determines the amount of each entitlement grant by a formula using
measures of community needs including the extent of poverty, population, housing overcrowding, age of
housing, and population growth lag in relationship to other metropolitan areas.
Should the City remain in the Urban County CDBG Program, the City would remain eligible to participate in
other programs administered by the LACDA. The City would be eligible to continue its participation in the
County’s HOME Program, which includes a First Time Homebuyer’s Program. Additionally, the City may
participate in the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program and Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC)
Program. Moreover, the County often provides additional assistance to the cities by undertaking County-
funded or jointly funded community development activities within the local jurisdictions. These services are
provided at no additional cost to the City.
Page 43 of 405
Agenda Item #: 6.4
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
It is recommended that the City of Diamond Bar continue its participation with the Urban County CDBG
Program. The City’s annual CDBG allocations have ranged from $253,458 to $280,412 over the past three years.
If the City becomes an entitlement city, there are no assurances that the annual CDBG allocation would
increase significantly. However, it is certain that there would be additional administrative responsibilities and
compliance obligations associated with entitlement status, resulting in increased staffing and consultant costs.
In light of these factors, the more fiscally sound option would be for the City to continue participating in the
Urban County CDBG Program.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the Resolution as to form.

open meetings of local legislative bodies. Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill 707 (Durazo) (SB 707) into law
on October 3, 2025. The intent of SB 707 is to modernize the Brown Act to improve transparency and expand
public access, especially for disabled, working, and non-English speaking communities. The new requirements
under SB 707 take effect in two phases:
• January 1, 2026: New optional teleconferencing provisions for all Brown Act bodies.
• July 1, 2026: Expanded public access, two-way teleconferencing participation, and language access
for “eligible legislative bodies.”
To comply with some of the provisions of SB 707, two new City Council Policies are required and presented for
approval to address "Disruption of Telephonic or Internet Service During City Council Meetings" (Attachment 1),
and "Encouraging Public Participation in City Council Meetings" (Attachment 2). A summary of the key
provisions of SB 707 is included in Attachment 3. The full text of SB 707 is included in Attachment 4.
ANALYSIS:
Page 47 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.1
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
The following provisions of SB 707 apply to an “eligible legislative body,” defined as a City Council in a city with
a population of 30,000 or more, or in a county with a population of more than 600,000. The City Council of the
City of Diamond Bar qualifies as an “eligible” legislative body” under this definition and is therefore subject to
the following requirements effective July 1, 2026. These provisions do not apply to City commissions.
Must Provide an Opportunity for Remote Public Access to and Participation in Meetings
• The public must be able to participate through either a two-way phone or audio-visual platform. The
City’s current system in use since 2020 meets these requirements.
• The City Council must approve a disruption policy (Attachment 1 – Disruption of Telephonic or Internet
Service During Council Meetings Policy) addressing the following:
In case of technological disruption, the City Council must recess the open session for at least one hour and
make a good faith attempt to restore the service. The City Council may not reconvene until after one hour
or the telephonic/internet service is restored, whichever is earlier. Upon reconvening the open session, if
telephonic or internet service has not been restored, the City Council must make a finding by roll call vote
that good faith efforts were made to restore the telephonic/internet service and that the public interest in
continuing the meeting outweighs the public interest in remote access.
Translation Assistance at Meetings
• Must “reasonably assist” any member of the public who wishes to translate a City Council meeting into
any language or wishes to receive interpretation provided by another member of the public.
• Must publicize instructions on how to request translation assistance.
• The City is not required to provide its own interpretation of meetings, but may elect to do so.
Translation of Agendas
• Must translate each City Council meeting agenda into all languages spoken jointly by 20% or more of
the City’s population, provided that 20% or more of the population that speaks that language speaks
English “less than ‘very well,’” and post each translated agenda in the same manner as the agenda
printed in English. This requirement applies only to the agenda itself, not the entire agenda packet. The
eligible language for the City of Diamond Bar is Chinese (see Attachment 5 - Applicable Languages
Worksheet).
• Must provide a physical location to allow members of the public to post their own additional
translations of the agenda.
Additional Required Actions to Encourage Residents from Underrepresented and Non-English Speaking
Communities to Participate in Meetings
• Must have system in place for electronically accepting and fulfilling requests for meeting agendas and
documents.
• Must have an accessible internet webpage dedicated to public meetings with a direct link on the
homepage. This webpage must be translated into eligible languages and each translation must be
accessible through a prominent direct link posted on the primary internet website home page of the
City.
• Must make reasonable efforts, as determined by the attached "Encouraging Public Participation in City
Council Meetings” City Council Policy (Attachment 2), to invite groups that do not traditionally
participate in public meetings to attend.
The following provisions of SB 707 apply to City Council as well as all City Commissions.
Page 48 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.1
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
Legislative Body Members May Participate Via Teleconference Due to a Disability Under Certain
Circumstances
• A member of a legislative body with a disability, may be permitted to participate in a meeting by
remote participation as a reasonable accommodation, without having to post an agenda at, or to
allow public access to, the location from which they are participating by teleconference.
• The member participating remotely due to a disability is required to and must participate by both
audio and video technologies (unless their physical condition results in a need to participate off
camera) and must disclose whether anyone 18 years of age or older are present in the room and the
nature of the member’s relationship to those individuals.
• Remote participation under this provision would be treated as in-person attendance for all purposes,
including quorum requirements.
Changes to Alternative Teleconferencing Provisions
• SB 707 revises and expands the Brown Act’s existing alternative teleconferencing provisions. These
changes include:
o Sunset date extended from January 1, 2026 to January 1, 2030.
o A uniform set of requirements that apply in all circumstances in which members of a legislative
body are permitted to participate in a meeting from a remote location via teleconference
without posting an agenda at or allowing public access to their teleconference location. These
uniform requirements are substantially similar to the existing requirements that apply to
teleconferencing during a “proclaimed state of emergency” and for “just cause” and
“emergency circumstances” and require in most instances that the local agency provide either
(1) a two-way audiovisual platform, or (2) a two-way telephonic service - and a live webcasting
of the meeting for the public to remotely hear and visually observe the meeting, that the
agenda describe how the public may access the meeting, and that the legislative body take
no further action on any items on the agenda if remote access is disrupted and not restored.
o Remote participation under the alternative teleconferencing provisions would once again be
allowed during “local emergencies,” in addition to states of emergency proclaimed by the
Governor.
o The definitions of “emergency circumstances” and “just cause” authorizing a member to
participate via teleconference are now combined into a single definition of “just cause” and
expanded to include an immunocompromised relative or domestic partner and certain military
service obligations.
o Must create a list of available meeting locations (Attachment 6 – Meeting Locations).
o Subject to several limitations and requirements, the option for remote meeting participation for
eligible subsidiary bodies may be extended to commissions, which serve exclusively in an
advisory capacity. The Planning Commission would not be eligible because they are not purely
advisory.
o Members of multijurisdictional, cross-county bodies would be permitted to participate in
meetings using the alternative teleconferencing provisions under specified circumstances.
Other Notable Changes to the Brown Act
• Must provide a copy of the Brown Act to every elected or appointed legislative body member.
• A legislative body is prohibited from adjusting its own compensation at a special meeting.
• The current provisions of the Brown Act requiring an oral report prior to approving any changes made
to the compensation or benefits of a local agency executive have been extended to changes in
compensation or benefits of department heads, as well.
• The January 1, 2026 sunset date for AB 992’s social media restrictions has been removed. This law
prohibits a majority of the members of a legislative body from using social media platforms to discuss
among themselves official business, including making posts, commenting and even using digital icons
known as “emojis”. This law also prohibits a member of the legislative body from responding directly to
Page 49 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.1
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
any communication on an internet-based social media platform regarding a matter that is within the
subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body that is posted or shared by another member.
• The existing authority of a legislative body to remove or limit participation by persons who engage in
behavior that disrupts the orderly conduct of the meeting, has been extended to include members of
the public participating in a meeting remotely via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way
audiovisual platform who engage in such behavior.
Next Steps
Upon City Council adoption of the two proposed Policies, staff will implement all SB 707 requirements and
policies. Staff will monitor implementation and update procedures as needed to ensure continued
compliance with state law and best practices through the duration of Senate Bill 707. Additionally, the
updated Brown Act rules and mandated policies will be brought back at a later time to be incorporated into
the City Council Code of Ethics and Standards of Operation Policy.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the Policies as to form.

the City, including non-English-language newspapers and
publications, in the distribution of City Council meeting agendas.

City website for accessing agendas. Maintain opportunities for
members of the public to subscribe to receive City Council agendas
and related materials through the City’s website.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 707, Durazo. Open meetings: meeting and teleconference requirements.
(1) Existing law, the Ralph M. Brown Act, requires, with specified exceptions, that all meetings of a legislative
body, as defined, of a local agency be open and public and that all persons be permitted to attend and
participate.
This bill would, beginning July 1, 2026, and until January 1, 2030, require an eligible legislative body, as defined,
to comply with additional meeting requirements, including that, except as specified, all open and public meetings
include an opportunity for members of the public to attend via a 2-way telephonic service or a 2-way audiovisual
platform, as defined, and that the eligible legislative body take specified actions to encourage residents to
participate in public meetings, as specified. The bill would require an eligible legislative body, on or before July 1,
2026, to approve at a noticed public meeting in open session a policy regarding disruption of telephonic or
internet services occurring during meetings subject to these provisions, as specified, and would require the
eligible legislative body to comply with certain requirements relating to disruption, including for certain
disruptions, recessing the open session for at least one hour and making a good faith attempt to restore the
service, as specified.
(2) Existing law prohibits a majority of the members of a legislative body, outside a meeting authorized by the
act, from using a series of communications of any kind to discuss, deliberate, or take action on any item of
business that is within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body. Existing law defines “meetings” for
these purposes to mean any congregation of a majority of the members of a legislative body at the same time
and location, as specified, to hear, discuss, deliberate, or take action on any item that is within the subject

matter jurisdiction of the legislative body. Until January 1, 2026, existing law excepts from the prohibition a
member engaging in separate conversations or communications outside of a meeting with any other person
using an internet-based social media platform for specified purposes, provided, among other things, that a
majority of the members do not use the internet-based social media platform to discuss among themselves
business of a specific nature that is within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body.
This bill would make the above-described exception related to communications on an internet-based social media
platform applicable indefinitely.
(3) Existing law requires a legislative body, prior to taking final action, to orally report a summary of a
recommendation for a final action on specified forms of compensation for a local agency executive, as defined,
during the open meeting in which the final action is to be taken.
This bill would also require the legislative body to make that oral report, as provided above, prior to taking final
action on those specified forms of compensation for a department head or other similar administrative officer of
the local agency.
(4) Existing law requires a legislative body of a local agency or its designee, at least 72 hours before a regular
meeting, to post an agenda that meets specified requirements, including that the agenda contain a brief general
description of each item of business to be transacted or discussed at the meeting, as specified.
This bill would, beginning July 1, 2026, and until July 1, 2030, require the agenda for each meeting of an eligible
legislative body, as defined, to be translated into all applicable languages. The bill would define “applicable
languages” to mean languages, according to data from the most recent American Community Survey, spoken
jointly by 20% or more of the applicable population, as specified, provided that 20% or more of the population
that speaks that language that in that city or county speaks English less than “very well,” as specified, and
except as provided.
Existing law requires every agenda for regular meetings to provide an opportunity for members of the public to
directly address the legislative body on any item of interest of the public, as specified. Existing law specifies that
the agenda is not required to provide an opportunity for members of the public to address the legislative body on
any item that has already been considered by a committee, as specified, except if the item has been
substantially changed since the committee heard the item, as determined by the legislative body.
This bill would add certain exceptions to the provision related to an item that has already been considered by a
committee, including excepting committees whose primary subject matter jurisdiction focuses on elections,
budgets, police oversight, privacy, removing from, or restricting access to, materials available in public libraries,
or taxes or related spending proposals, except as specified.
(5) Existing law authorizes a legislative body of a local agency to require a copy of the act to be given to each
member of the legislative body and specified persons elected to serve as a member of the legislative body, and
authorizes an elected legislative body member to require a copy to be given to each member of each legislative
body all or a majority of whose members are appointed by or under the authority of the elected legislative body.
This bill would instead require a local agency to provide a copy of the act to any person elected or appointed to
serve as a member of a legislative body of the local agency.
Existing law authorizes legislative bodies of local agencies to impose requirements upon themselves which allow
greater access to their meetings than prescribed by the minimal standards set forth in the act, and authorizes an
elected legislative body of a local agency to also impose those requirements on those appointed legislative bodies
of the local agency of which all or a majority of the members are appointed by or under the authority of the
elected legislative body.
This bill would remove the above-described requirement that members of an appointed legislative body of a local
agency must be appointed by or under the authority of the elected legislative body of a local agency in order for
the elected legislative body to impose the above-described requirements on the appointed legislative body.
(6) Existing law provides any person attending an open and public meeting of a legislative body of a local agency
with the right to record the proceedings with an audio or visual recorder or a still or motion picture camera, as
specified.
Page 68 of 405
This bill would remove the reference to an audio or visual recorder or a still or motion picture camera for
purposes of recording the proceedings, as described above.
(7) Existing law authorizes a legislative body of a local agency to use teleconferencing, as specified, and requires
a legislative body of a local agency that elects to use teleconferencing to comply with specified general
requirements, including that the local agency post agendas at all teleconference locations, identify each
teleconference location in the notice and agenda of the meeting or proceeding, and have each teleconference
location be accessible to the public. Existing law also requires that, during the teleconference, at least a quorum
of the members of the legislative body participate from locations within the boundaries of the territory over
which the local agency exercises jurisdiction, except as specified.
Existing law authorizes members who are outside the jurisdiction of a health authority, as defined, that conducts
a teleconferencing meeting to, notwithstanding the above-described general teleconference provisions, count
towards the establishment of a quorum when participating in the teleconference if, among other things, at least
50% of the number of members that would establish a quorum are present within the boundaries of the territory
over which the authority exercises jurisdiction.
Existing law authorizes, in certain circumstances, the legislative body of a local agency to use specified
alternative teleconferencing which include provisions related to, among others, notice of the means by which
members of the public may access the meeting and offer public comment and identifying and including an
opportunity for all persons to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option. Those circumstances
in which the legislative body of a local agency is authorized to use the alternative teleconferencing provisions
include specified circumstances relating to a state of emergency, as defined, and, until January 1, 2026, subject
to specified limitations, a member’s need to participate remotely due to just cause, defined to include, among
other things, a need related to a physical or mental disability, or emergency circumstances, as defined, if certain
quorum and disclosure requirements are met.
Existing law also authorizes certain eligible legislative bodies, including neighborhood councils and student body
associations and student-run community college organizations to, until January 1, 2026, use alternate
teleconferencing if, among other requirements, the city council or board of trustees, as applicable, has adopted
an authorizing resolution and 2/3 of the neighborhood city council or specified student organization, as
applicable, votes to use alternate teleconference provisions, as specified.
This bill would revise and recast the above-specified teleconferencing and alternative teleconferencing provisions
to uniformly apply certain noticing, disclosure, accessibility, and public commenting provisions. The bill would
require a legislative body of a local agency that elects to use teleconferencing pursuant to these alternative
teleconferencing provisions to comply with, in addition to any other applicable requirements under the act,
specified requirements, including that the legislative body provides at least either 2-way audiovisual platform or
2-way telephonic service and a live webcasting of the meeting as a means by which the public may, among other
things, remotely hear and visually observe the meeting, and that a member of the legislative body who
participates in a teleconference meeting from a remote location pursuant to these alternative teleconferencing
provisions and the specific provision of law that the member relied upon to permit their participation by
teleconferencing are listed in the minutes of the meeting. The bill would require a local agency to identify and
make available to legislative bodies a list of one or more meeting locations that may be available for use by the
legislative bodies to conduct their meetings.
The bill would specify that nothing in the bill’s provisions is to be construed to prohibit a member of a legislative
body with a disability, as defined, from participating in any meeting of the legislative body by remote
participation as a reasonable accommodation pursuant to any applicable law. The bill would apply certain
provisions relative to, among other things, quorum establishment to that circumstance.
The bill would instead authorize a health authority, as defined, to conduct a teleconference meeting pursuant to
the above-described alternative teleconferencing provisions.
The bill would revise and recast the alternative teleconferencing provisions applicable in a state of emergency, as
defined. The bill would also include a local emergency, as defined, as a circumstance in which a legislative body
of a local agency is authorized to use the alternative teleconferencing provisions.
Page 69 of 405
The bill would revise and recast the alternative teleconferencing provisions applicable in cases of a member’s
need to participate remotely due to just cause or emergency circumstances, as defined, to remove the provision
applicable to emergency circumstances, to revise related definitions, including broadening the definition of just
cause to include, among other things, a physical or family medical emergency that prevents a member from
attending in person, and to require the minutes for a meeting to identify the specific provision of law that each
member relied upon to participate remotely, as specified. The bill would extend the authorization to use the
alternative teleconferencing provision until January 1, 2030.
The bill would revise and recast the alternative teleconferencing provisions applicable to neighborhood councils
and student body associations and student-run community college organizations. In regards to the alternative
teleconferencing provisions applicable to student body associations and student-run community college
organizations, the bill would exempt the California Online Community College from specified requirements for an
in-person quorum, a physical location for public participation, and certain accommodations under the
authorization, and remove the ability for a person with a disability that requires certain accommodations to count
towards the in-person quorum requirement. The bill would specify that the student body associations and
student-run community college organizations described above are those in any community college recognized
within the California Community Colleges system, and would extend the authorization to the Student Senate for
California Community Colleges. The bill would extend the authorization to use the alternative teleconferencing
provisions applicable to neighborhood councils and student body associations and student-run community college
organizations until January 1, 2030.
The bill would, until January 1, 2030, also authorize a specified subsidiary body of local agencies to conduct a
teleconference meeting pursuant to the above-described alternative teleconferencing provisions, provided that it
complies with the requirements for alternative teleconferencing described above and additional requirements,
including that the subsidiary body designates one physical meeting location within the boundaries of the
legislative body that created the subsidiary body where members of the subsidiary body who are not
participating remotely shall be present and members of the public may physically attend, observe, hear, and
participate in the meeting, as specified.
The bill would, until January 1, 2030, also authorize specified multijurisdictional bodies of local agencies to
conduct a teleconference meeting pursuant to the above-described alternative teleconferencing provisions,
provided that it complies with the requirements for alternative teleconferencing described above and additional
requirements, including that the eligible multijurisdictional body has adopted a resolution that authorizes the
multijurisdictional body to use teleconferencing at a regular meeting in open session.
The bill would specify that these teleconferencing provisions are cumulative, and would authorize a legislative
body to elect to use any teleconferencing provisions that are applicable to a meeting, regardless of whether any
other teleconferencing provisions would also be applicable to that meeting.
Existing law defines “teleconference” for purposes of the authorization for a legislative body of a local agency to
use teleconferencing to mean a meeting of a legislative body, the members of which are in different locations,
connected by electronic means, through either audio or video, or both.
This bill would specify that “teleconference” does not include the attendance of one or more members of a
legislative body in a meeting of the body solely by watching or listening via webcasting or any other similar
electronic medium that does not permit members to interactively speak, discuss, or deliberate on matters.
(8) Existing law authorizes a special meeting to be called any time by, among other persons, the presiding officer
of the legislative body of a local agency, by delivering specified written notices and posting a notice on the local
agency’s internet website, if the local agency has one. Existing law requires specified legislative bodies to comply
with the internet website posting requirement.
The bill would remove the requirement that only specified legislative bodies comply with the internet website
posting requirement, thereby imposing that requirement on all legislative bodies.
(9) Existing law authorizes a legislative body of a local agency to hold an emergency meeting without complying
with specified notice and posting requirements in the case of emergency circumstances, as specified, and
imposes various requirements under these provisions applicable to either legislative bodies generally or
legislative bodies which are a school board.
Page 70 of 405
This bill would remove the school board distinction from the above-described provisions, thereby imposing the
same requirements to hold an emergency meeting on all legislative bodies of local agencies.
By imposing additional duties on legislative bodies of local agencies, the bill would impose a state-mandated local
program.
(10) Existing law authorizes, in addition to other related specified authorizations, the presiding member of the
legislative body conducting a meeting or their designee to remove, or cause the removal of, an individual for
disrupting the meeting. Existing law defines “disrupting” for these purposes to mean engaging in behavior during
a meeting of a legislative body that actually disrupts, disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly conduct
of the meeting, as specified.
This bill would specify that a meeting for purposes of that provision includes any teleconferenced meeting. The
bill would specify that the existing authority of a legislative body or its presiding officer to remove or limit
participation by persons who engage in behavior that actually disrupts, disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible
the orderly conduct of the meeting, as specified, applies to members of the public participating in a meeting via a
2-way telephonic service or a 2-way audiovisual platform, as those terms are defined.
(11) The bill would make other updates to references in the act.
(12) Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of
public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest
protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
(13) The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings
of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that
amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the
enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
(14) The bill would include findings that changes proposed by this bill address a matter of statewide concern
rather than a municipal affair and, therefore, apply to all cities, including charter cities.
(15) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain
costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

the meeting as soon after the meeting as possible.

SEC. 22. Section 54957.95 of the Government Code is amended to read:
54957.95. (a) (1) In addition to authority exercised pursuant to Sections 54954.3 and 54957.9, the presiding
member of the legislative body conducting a meeting or their designee may remove, or cause the removal of, an
individual for disrupting the meeting, including any teleconferenced meeting.
(2) Prior to removing an individual, the presiding member or their designee shall warn the individual that their
behavior is disrupting the meeting and that their failure to cease their behavior may result in their removal.
The presiding member or their designee may then remove the individual if they do not promptly cease their
disruptive behavior. This paragraph does not apply to any behavior described in subparagraph (B) of paragraph
(1) of subdivision (b).
(b) As used in this section:
(1) “Disrupting” means engaging in behavior during a meeting of a legislative body that actually disrupts,
disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly conduct of the meeting and includes, but is not limited to,
one of the following:
(A) A failure to comply with reasonable and lawful regulations adopted by a legislative body pursuant to
Section 54954.3 or any other law.
(B) Engaging in behavior that constitutes use of force or a true threat of force.
(2) “True threat of force” means a threat that has sufficient indicia of intent and seriousness, that a reasonable
observer would perceive it to be an actual threat to use force by the person making the threat.
SEC. 23. Section 54957.96 is added to the Government Code, to read:
54957.96. (a) The existing authority of a legislative body or its presiding officer to remove or limit participation by
persons who engage in behavior that actually disrupts, disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly
Page 91 of 405
conduct of the meeting, including existing limitations upon that authority, shall apply to members of the public
participating in a meeting via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way audiovisual platform.
(b) For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply:
(1) “Two-way audiovisual platform” means an online platform that provides participants with the ability to
participate in a meeting via both an interactive video conference and a two-way telephonic service. A two-way
audiovisual platform may be structured to disable the use of video for the public participants.
(2) “Two-way telephonic service” means a telephone service that does not require internet access and allows
participants to dial a telephone number to listen and verbally participate.
SEC. 24. The Legislature finds and declares that Section 4 of this act, which amends Section 54953 of, Section 5
of this act, which adds Section 54953.4 to, Sections 8 to 15, inclusive, of this act, which add Sections 54953.8 to
54953.8.7, respectively, to, Section 19 of this act, which amends Section 54956.5 of, Section 22 of this act,
which amends Section 54957.95 of, and Section 23 of this act, which adds Section 54957.96 to, the Government
Code, impose a limitation on the public’s right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public
officials and agencies within the meaning of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution. Pursuant to that
constitutional provision, the Legislature makes the following findings to demonstrate the interest protected by
this limitation and the need for protecting that interest:
(a) This act is necessary to provide opportunities for public participation in meetings of specified public agencies
and to promote the recruitment and retention of members of those agencies.
(b) This act is necessary to ensure minimum standards for public participation and notice requirements allowing
for greater public participation in meetings.
(c) This act is necessary to modernize the Ralph M. Brown Act to reflect recent technological changes that can
promote greater public access to local officials.
(d) The exclusively virtual nature of the California Online Community College presents unique barriers to the
requirements for an in-person quorum, a physical location for public participation, and certain accommodations.
Participating students of the online community college come from all across the state and necessitating travel for
these requirements would pose a significant and exclusionary barrier.
SEC. 25. The Legislature finds and declares that Sections 1 and 2 of this act, which amend and repeal Section
54952.2, respectively, of, Section 3 of this act, which amends Section 54952.7 of, Section 4 of this act, which
amends Section 54953 of, Section 5 of this act, which adds Section 54953.4 to, Section 6 of this act, which
amends Section 54953.5 of, Section 7 of this act, which amends Section 54953.7 of, Sections 8 to 15, inclusive,
of this act, which add Sections 54953.8 to 54953.8.7, respectively, to, Section 16 of this act, which amends
Section 54954.2 of, Section 17 of this act, which amends Section 54954.3 of, Section 18 of this act, which
amends Section 54956 of, Section 19 of this act, which amends Section 54956.5 of, Section 20 of this act, which
amends Section 54957.6 of, Section 21 of this act, which amends Section 54957.9 of, Section 22 of this act,
which amends Section 54957.95 of, and Section 23 of this act, which adds Section 54957.96 to, the Government
Code, further, within the meaning of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California
Constitution, the purposes of that constitutional section as it relates to the right of public access to the meetings
of local public bodies or the writings of local public officials and local agencies. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of
subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following
findings:
(a) This act is necessary to provide opportunities for public participation in meetings of specified public agencies
and to promote the recruitment and retention of members of those agencies.
(b) This act is necessary to ensure minimum standards for public participation and notice requirements allowing
for greater public participation in meetings.
(c) This act is necessary to modernize the Ralph M. Brown Act to reflect recent technological changes that can
promote greater public access to local officials.

(d) The exclusively virtual nature of the California Online Community College presents unique barriers to the
requirements for an in-person quorum, a physical location for public participation, and certain accommodations.
Participating students of the online community college come from all across the state and necessitating travel for
these requirements would pose a significant and exclusionary barrier.
SEC. 26. The Legislature finds and declares that adequate public access to meetings is a matter of statewide
concern and is not a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution.
Therefore, this bill would apply to all cities, including charter cities.
SEC. 27. No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California
Constitution because the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district under this act would
result from a legislative mandate that is within the scope of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of
Article I of the California Constitution.

BACKGROUND:
Each year, the City prepares an annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for City
Council consideration that implements the Council’s priorities and Strategic Plan Goals, and provides the
financial resources to deliver services to the community. The preparation of the annual budget is a significant
and important undertaking that takes place over the course of more than five months. The Proposed FY
2026/27 Operating and CIP Budget is balanced for the upcoming fiscal year. However, this outcome was
achieved only after substantial reductions to ongoing City programs and service levels. These reductions
followed an extensive planning and study period, as well as careful review and deliberation by the City
Council.
Below is the schedule for the review and adoption of the FY 2026/27 City Operating and CIP Budget:
• Community Budget Workshop #1: Review of Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget and Service Level Adjustments –
Held March 3, 2026
• Community Budget Workshop #2: Review of Proposed FY 2026/27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), Traffic
Mitigation Fund Project Priorities, and Vehicle Lease Program – Held April 14, 2026
• Council Study Session #1 to review the Draft FY 2026/27 CIP and Draft Five-Year CIP – Held May 5, 2026
• Council Study Session #2 to review the Draft FY 2026/27 Operating Budget and Ten-Year General Fund
Forecast – Held May 19, 2026
• Adoption of the Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating & CIP Budget, Compensation Plan, Gann Appropriations
Limit, and Investment Policy – Scheduled for June 2, 2026.
Following the Study Session on May 19, 2026, adjustments were made to the proposed revenues for the three
Lighting & Landscape Assessment Districts totaling just $176 in aggregate. No other revisions have been made
to the Draft FY 2026/27 Operating Budget proposed for adoption. In addition to the Operating and CIP
budget, staff is presenting the City Council with the Ten-Year General Fund Forecast and the Five-Year CIP,
both of which are included in the attached Draft Budget Book (see Attachment 1 Exhibit A "Proposed FY
2026/27 Operating and CIP Budget").
ANALYSIS:
General Fund Structural Deficit and Ten-Year Forecast
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget reflects the second year of the City’s ongoing structural deficit – a structural
deficit is where recurring revenues are not able to keep up with the rate of inflation and cost increases. Unlike one-
time or cyclical shortfalls, a structural deficit requires deliberate and ongoing policy actions, such as revenue
enhancements, expenditure reductions, service-level adjustments, or other reforms, to eliminate the underlying gap.
Though the Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget is balanced due to one-time revenue increases from realigned Use Fees,
the updated Ten-Year General Fund Forecast remains largely unchanged from the prior year under a status quo
scenario. Unless new recurring revenues materialize, or further service level reductions are made, the City can
Page 98 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.2
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
expect to see significant deficits starting as soon as next FY 2027/28 wherein a deficit of $790 thousand is
anticipated even at the City's current reduced service levels. If this pattern holds, the City can expect to see the
complete utilization of the General Fund’s $30 million fund balance by year eight, putting at stake the high quality of
life, level of public safety and public infrastructure the City has prized since incorporation. Accordingly, while the
Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget represents an important step toward fiscal stability, continued discipline will be
necessary to maintain structural balance in future years. The Ten-Year General Fund Forecast is included in the
attached Draft Budget Book.
A. Proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund Budget Overview
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating Budget reflects a continued focus on long-term fiscal sustainability,
responsible stewardship of public resources, and the preservation of essential City programs and services.
Compared to the prior year, the City has made meaningful steps toward addressing its structural deficit through a
combination of revenue enhancements and significant expenditure reductions. Hence, the Proposed FY 2026/27
Budget includes updated development-related user fees and multiple reductions to selected programs and services.
These proactive actions eliminated an initial starting deficit of $1.6 million, producing a balanced General Fund
budget for the upcoming fiscal year. However, the expected growth of updated revenues is not anticipated to match
the growth in the rate of inflation and cost increases for utilities, maintenance, insurance, personnel, and
contract/professional services facing the City (as shown in the ten-year forecast). This fact necessitates further
action to reduce costs or increase revenues ahead of the next fiscal year.
Presently, General Fund revenues in FY 2026/27 are projected to increase by 5.6% compared to the prior year. As
mentioned above, this increase is primarily attributable to updated user fees for development-related services,
which are projected to increase by 76.8% in the coming year (however, future year growth is expected to be
approximately one percent based on historical fee activity). This update brings total development fee revenues to
approximately $4.1 million. These updated fees better align cost recovery with the cost of providing services and
reduce the extent to which General Fund resources subsidize development activity.
In addition to revenue enhancements, the Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget includes approximately $987 thousand in
reductions to programs and services. These reductions were necessary to balance the budget while preserving
core municipal services and maintaining the City’s commitment to fiscal discipline. Although difficult, these
reductions reflect a measured and proactive approach to addressing the City’s ongoing fiscal challenges. As a
result of these efforts, the Proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund Budget is balanced and proposes the one-time use
of fund balance in the amount of $27 thousand for the City's Hazard Mitigation Plan Update.
Despite fiscal challenges, the proposed budget continues to prioritize implementation of the City Council’s high-priority
objectives and remains guided by the three overarching goals in the adopted FY 2024–2027 Strategic Plan:
• Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
• Open, Engaged and Responsive Government
• Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community

General Fund Revenues: $34.1 Million
Proposed General Fund revenues for FY 2026/27 have increased $1.8 million, or 5.6%, when compared to the prior
FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget. The following are noteworthy General Fund revenue items incorporated into the
proposed FY 2026/27 Operating Budget. The table below compares the prior year adopted budget to the Proposed
FY 2026/27 Budget, and the percent of change for next fiscal year.
Adopted Proposed Property Taxes

0.6%
The estimated change in the City's net taxable value of secured
real property for FY 2026/27 is expected to increase 3.6% ($155
thousand). This increase is offset by decreases for unsecured and
supplemental property tax rolls which will result in a net year-over-
year change to all Property Tax revenue categories of 0.6%. The
City uses HdL as a consultant to help monitor, audit and project
this major revenue source.
Adopted Proposed Property Tax in Lieu of VLF (Vehicle License Fees)
FY 25/26 FY
2026/27
$8,107,449
$8,399,320
This major revenue source grows at the same general pace as the
City's net taxable value (3.6%). The City’s consultant, HdL, also
assists with the projection of this significant revenue item. 3.6%

driven by updated assumptions regarding statewide and national
economic growth. The City is seeing continued declines across
key sectors, including Business & Industry ($88 thousand), Fuel &
Service Stations ($74 thousand), Food & Drugs ($74 thousand),
and Building & Construction ($7 thousand). These decreases were
offset by increases to General Consumer Goods ($84 thousand),
Restaurants ($38 thousand), and online sales distributed by the
County Pool ($30,000).
For the fourth quarter of 2025 (October–December), Diamond Bar
experienced a 5.9% decline in sales tax revenue compared to the
same quarter in 2024, ranking 78th out of 88 cities in Los Angeles
County. This trend appears to reflect Diamond Bar’s unique retail
composition, as at least one neighboring LA County city
experienced a 3.9% increase during the same period.
Adopted Proposed Transient Occupancy Taxes
FY 25/26 FY
2026/27
$1,449,000
$1,539,000
Transient Occupancy Tax is projected to increase by $90

anticipated to decline $329 thousand as the City's portfolio reflects
changes to the interest rate environment and Federal Open
Market Committee policy. -26.3%
Rental Revenue – Revenue from rentals at the Diamond Bar
Center is anticipated to increase by $52 thousand.
$1,102,500

recent comprehensive update to the City's User Fee Schedule
which aimed to recoup the full cost of providing these services. 76.8%
$618,425 $622,675

Recreation Programs – Program revenue is projected to increase

$1,435,000
$1,435,000
0.0%
The Transfer-In from the Gas Tax Fund reimburses the General
Fund for eligible road maintenance activities each year. However,
as maintenance costs continue to rise, available Gas Tax revenue
remains insufficient to fully cover these expenses.
General Fund Expenditure Budget: $34.2 Million
Proposed recurring General Fund expenditures for FY 2026/27 have increased $1.8 million, or 5.6% when
compared to the prior FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget. In addition, staff is proposing a one-time expense in the amount
of $56 thousand for the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan Update, bringing total proposed expenditures to $34.2 million.
In response to declining revenues and an initial $1.6 million starting deficit, staff conducted a thorough review of all
expense accounts and took deliberate steps to reduce or eliminate expenses in order to present a balanced budget
for the upcoming year. As a result, $987 thousand has been reduced from the General Fund which significantly
affects programs and services for the upcoming fiscal year. These reductions are in addition to $250 thousand in
ongoing reductions to the FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget which reduced budgets for vehicle replacements and the
parking lot slurry seal program at various parks.

Notwithstanding the aforementioned reductions, the following highlighted items are presented for City Council
consideration:
• Public Safety
Law Enforcement – FY 2026/27 County of Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department (LASD) expenditures are
expected to be approximately $9.1 million, representing the single largest line item and approximately 26.6% of
proposed General Fund expenditures (down from 27.4%). LASD proposed expenditures reflect a net increase of
$265 thousand year-over-year, inclusive of a contract rate increase of 2.3% (down from 4.37% in the prior year)
plus an increased Liability Trust Fund (LTF) surcharge of 14.5% (up from 13% in the prior year) on each
contracted position. The General Fund includes a transfer-in from the Law Enforcement Reserve Fund in the
amount of $25,000 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.
Crossing Guard Services – The City provides Crossing Guard Services at seven (7) elementary schools and
two (2) middle schools with a total of 16 guards. The total budget for crossing guard services in FY 2026/27 is
$289,800.
Animal Control – Since incorporation, the City has contracted with the Inland Valley Humane Society (IVHS) for
animal control and licensing services. The current agreement, last amended in 2021, follows a gross contract
model in which the City pays the full cost of services, offset by any licensing revenue collected by IVHS. Since
last year, three large member cities have withdrawn from IVHS (Montclair, Chino, Ontario), with the City of
Baldwin Park recently being added into IVHS’ service territory effective July 1, 2026. IVHS also expanded with
the acquisition of the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society, which includes the cities of San Gabriel and Temple
City.
While FY 2025/26 experienced a one-time cost increase of 15%, the FY 2026/27 proposed increase for IVHS
Animal Control services is 3%. The gross cost for this contracted service in FY 2026/27 is anticipated to be
$667,300. After accounting for estimated licensing and service fee revenues of $80,000, the proposed budget of
$587,300 reflects an increase of $15,500 compared to the previous fiscal year.
• Human Resources – 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. 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). This year, staff is planning on
implementing flexible staffing solutions to replace current vacant part-time positions in the Parks and
Recreation and Public Works Departments. These position swaps will maintain the City’s commitment to
investing in optimizing service delivery while providing minimal fiscal impact in the upcoming year. Having an
agile workforce able to respond to the changing needs of the community and carry out City priorities is
essential. There are sufficient budgeted resources in the proposed departmental budgets; and the positions,
as well as salary ranges, already exist in the City’s classification and compensation plan. Therefore, the
following position swaps are requested for FY 2026/27 for a total year-one savings of $2,040.
*Assumed 3.0% COLA in years 2-5.
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 in March 2026 was 3.6%. In order to avoid real

Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
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, be increased by 3.6% effective with the pay period beginning
June 27, 2026. A $100 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. This annual COLA and Benefit Allotment adjustment is
a routine maintenance item to preserve the City’s competitive compensation structure. The total estimated
cost is approximately $432 thousand, of which $378 thousand is funded by the General Fund.
• Parks & Recreation
The proposed Parks & Recreation department budget was developed based on continued community interest in
valuable programs, services, and events. With City Council support, the department made several strategic
adjustments while considering the financial challenges facing the City. These adjustments include the
cancelation of the Winter Snow Fest Event, Movies in the Parks, and reductions to the Concerts in the Park
series. Several programs and events offered this year to support an active and healthy community include
summer youth day camp, senior activities & dances, field allocations for sports organizations, contract classes,
picnic reservations, and community special events. This fiscal year will also include the Wedding and Event
Expo at the DBC, which serves to promote the facility and is a mostly a cost-neutral event. Traditional special
events, including the Windmill Lighting, Veterans Recognition Ceremony, and the Halloween Party, will continue
to bring the community together.
Expenses for recreation programs ($2.75 million, a 0.6% decrease) and Diamond Bar Center operations ($1.81
million, a 2.8% increase) have been adjusted commensurate with anticipated activities and service level
reductions for a combined budget of $4.56 million, a total increase of $32 thousand from the prior year. Total
departmental revenue, including Diamond Bar Center rentals ($750 thousand, an increase of $50 thousand from
the prior year) and other recreation program revenue ($622 thousand, an increase of $4 thousand from the prior
year amount) is budgeted at $1.37 million for FY 2026/27.
Special Revenue Fund Highlights
• Integrated Waste Management Fund (250) – The proposed budget of $1.1 million includes a proposed line
item for $180 thousand for a routine Residential and Commercial Waste Hauler Compliance Audit, a
reimbursable cost paid for by the waste haulers. In addition, $21 thousand is proposed for expanded student
waste reduction and recycling field trips. Additionally, the City has maintained a student environmental
education program for 3rd-6th graders with Discovery Cube for several years. This program, budgeted at $40
thousand, has been well-received by schools as it provides a fun and interactive way to educate students
about recycling, organic waste, and sustainable purchasing choices. Additionally, it supports the goals of SB
1383, particularly through Discovery Cube’s organics lab, which includes composting and vermicomposting
activities.
• Lighting & Landscape Assessment Districts (LLADs) – Much work has been done in recent years to
address operating deficits and reduce General Fund subsidies to the LLADs, particularly Districts 39-2022 and
41-2021. Total General Fund contributions to all three districts for FY 2026/27 is budgeted at $149 thousand,
a decrease of $126 thousand from the prior year. Budgeted resources and expenditures for all three districts
for FY 2026/27 are shown below. It should be noted that some districts are utilizing fund balance for proposed
operations and that the General Fund subsidy to LLAD No. 38 was reduced as part of the budget balancing
strategy for FY 2026/27:

Agenda Item #: 8.2
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
• Traffic Mitigation Fund (246) – The City receives Traffic Mitigation Funds to address transportation system
impacts associated with development. Staff is recommending the establishment of a prioritized list of street
improvement projects to ensure these funds are deployed strategically and transparently. The proposed
budget of $350,000 will utilize interest earned on the funds to aid the City’s effort to:
o Align traffic mitigation fund expenditures with nexus and eligibility requirements
o Prioritize traffic mitigation projects that best improve traffic flow and safety
o Provide a clear and defensible framework for future project selection.
• Tres Hermanos Fund (248) – The proposed budget of $120 thousand (an increase of $40 thousand) is for
the City’s share of maintenance costs provided to the Tres Hermanos Conservation Authority.
• AB 2766 Air Quality Management District Fund (251) – AB 2766 Air Quality Management District Fund
(251) – The proposed budget of $74 thousand represents no change from the prior year. A total of $35,000 is
being shifted from the neighborhood traffic management program (NTMP) to fund the lease of four (4) zero-
emission fleet vehicles, leaving sufficient funds in the amount of $39,000 to accommodate citizen requests for
traffic improvements.
• Beverage Container Recycling Grant Fund (254) – The proposed $14 thousand budget includes new
recycling receptacles for business and school programs.
• Hazard Mitigation Fund (256) – The proposed budget of $221 thousand is requested to updated the City’s
Hazard Mitigation Plan in order to remain in compliance with FEMA and State planning requirements. City staff
submitted a grant application in 2025 and are awaiting FEMA’s determination. There is a corresponding
request of $56,000 from the General Fund to meet the granting agency’s 25% cost-share requirement.
• Park Development Fund (262) – The proposed budget of $250 thousand is for the construction of the
Sycamore Canyon Park Lower Bridge Replacement project as discussed in the FY 2026/27 CIP.
Internal Service Funds Highlights
• Debt Service Fund (401) – 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 $1.63 million (or 20.85%) for the General Fund, 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) for FY 2026/27 will be $722 thousand, and is funded by a transfer to the Debt
Service Fund from the General Fund.
• Self-Insurance Fund (501) – CA Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) covers the City’s Property,
Pollution Liability, Crime, General Liability and Workers’ Compensation needs. The combined premiums for
Page 106 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.2
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
Property, Pollution, Crime and General Liability are anticipated to be approximately $820 thousand, which
reflects a year-over-year increase of $169 thousand (26%). This amount is up from the prior year increase of
$117 thousand which, at the time, represented a year-over-year increase of 22%. All funding for the Self-
Insurance Fund is provided by a transfer-in from the General Fund.
• Vehicle Maintenance & Replacement Fund (502) – The proposed budget of $137 thousand is
recommended for necessary operations and maintenance of the citywide fleet, as well as the lease of four (4)
new zero-emission electric vehicles funded by a transfer-in from the AB 2766 Fund (fund 251) in the amount
of $35 thousand. The remaining budget of $102 thousand is requested to cover fuel and maintenance costs
for the City’s current fleet, and is provided by a transfer-in from the General Fund.
• Computer Equipment Maint. & Replacement Fund (503) – The proposed budget of $208 thousand is
recommended for necessary information systems, hardware upgrades, and replacements, such as:
• Additional mobile touch screens for ELM project ($5 thousand)
• (2) Multi-function Copier Replacements ($25 thousand)
• (2) Firewalls ($15 thousand)
• (2) Timer Server Replacements ($18 thousand)
• Additional Tyler support for post go-live reporting ($45 thousand)
Plus items carried over from the prior year:
• Phase 2 ELM System Integration with Laserfische and Financial System ($80 thousand)
• New Touch-Screens for Employee Time Keeping ($20 thousand)
• Building Facility & Replacement Fund (504) – Proposed revenues include a transfer-in from the General
Fund in the amount of $100 thousand, per the City’s adopted fund balance policy. There are no expenses
proposed for 2026/27.
Fiduciary Fund
• OPEB Trust Fund (601) – The proposed budget of $115 thousand consists only of revenue via a transfer-in
from the General Fund in the amount of $88,000 and investment earnings in the amount of $26,600
designated to fund the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Trust, an investment vehicle managed
by CalPERS for the purpose of reducing the City’s long-term OPEB liabilities (e.g. retiree medical costs). This
amount is unchanged from the prior fiscal year. There are no expenses budgeted in this fund.
FY 2026/27 Capital Improvement Program
On May 5, 2026, the City Council held a Study Session to review the recommended Draft FY 2026/27 Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) and Five-Year CIP. Following that discussion, the updated annual allocation for the
City’s Community Development Block Grant was received and incorporated into the Area 7 ADA Curb Ramp
project:
Street Improvements:
• Original CDBG Budget for Area 7 ADA Curb Ramps: $185,894
• Revised CDBG Budget for Area 7 ADA Curb Ramps: $189,734
Below is a summary of the revised Proposed FY 2026/27 Capital Improvement Program:
Page 107 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.2
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
The Capital Improvement Program and Five-Year CIP are included in the attached Draft Budget Book (see
Attachment 1 Exhibit A "Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating and CIP Budget") .
B. FY 2026/27 Gann Appropriations Limit: $68,333,798
Voters approved Proposition 4 in November of 1979, an initiative that added Article XIII B to the California
Constitution. This constitutional amendment, also known as the Gann initiative, provided a baseline appropriations
limit for the City and capped expenditures for publicly funded programs. Pursuant to California statute, the City must
calculate and adopt its annual appropriations limit by first applying an annual growth factor. The adopted limit then
places a ceiling on the total amount of tax revenues the City may collect the following year to support City
programs.
The appropriations limit can be calculated by the use of one of the following factors:
1. Based on the growth factor of City population change over the prior year and the change in the California per
capita income over the prior year: 1.0445.
2. Based on the growth factor of County population change over the prior year and the change in the California
per capita income over the prior year: 1.0428.
3. Based on the growth factor of change in the City’s non-residential new construction valuation and the change in
the County or City population: 0.9935 and 0.9951 respectively.
California statute allows cities to use whichever factor is most favorable to its calculated limit. Therefore, the
recommended growth factor used to compute the Gann Appropriations Limit for FY 2026/27 is the change in the
City population and change in California per capita income: 1.0445. By using this growth factor, the City will have
an appropriation limit of $68,333,798 for FY 2026/27. The City’s FY 2026/27 appropriations subject to the limit are
$24.3 million which are found to be under the calculated appropriations limit (see Attachment 3).
C. FY 2026/27 Compensation Plan
In June 2025, the City Council adopted and amended the City of Diamond Bar Compensation Plan (Resolution No.
2025-18) effective for FY 2025/26. As discussed above in Section A, the proposed changes to the Compensation
Plan for FY 2026/27 include cost-of-living adjustments and an adjustment to the standard benefit allotment, as well
as replacing two vacant budgeted positions to suit operational needs (see Attachments 4 & 5).
D. FY 2026/27 Investment Policy
The Investment Policy states the goals of the City’s investment activities, the types of investments in which the City
is permitted to invest its funds, and the reporting requirements. It is updated as necessary and reapproved by the
City Council each year with approval of the Operating Budget.
In June 2025, the City Council adopted the most recent Investment Policy (Resolution No. 2025-20) which was
prepared in accordance with the provisions outlined in the California Municipal Treasurer’s Association (CMTA)
Investment Policy Certification Program. CMTA is solely focused on public agency treasury management in the
State of California which lends itself more closely to the City’s investment requirements and goals. There are no
changes recommended to the current investment policy at this time (see Attachments 6 & 7).
CONCLUSION:
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program reflects a disciplined and balanced
approach to addressing the City’s ongoing fiscal challenges. Through updated user fees, increased General Fund
revenues, and approximately $987,000 in program and service reductions, the proposed budget closes an initial
$1.6 million deficit while maintaining funding for essential City operations and priority capital needs.
Page 108 of 405
Agenda Item #: 8.2
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
While this represents meaningful progress, the City’s long-term forecast projects a renewed General Fund shortfall
of approximately $790 thousand in FY 2027/28. As a result, continued fiscal discipline and efforts to align ongoing
revenues with ongoing expenditures will remain necessary. Staff will continue working on strategies to strengthen
long-term fiscal sustainability, including opportunities to enhance revenues, control costs, and evaluate service
delivery priorities and will explore recommendations with the City Council in the coming months. Therefore, it is
recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolutions to approve the FY 2026/27 Operating and
Capital Improvement Program Budget, along with the updated Gann Appropriations Limit, amendments to the City’s
Compensation & Benefits Plan, and the FY 2026/27 Investment Policy.

Honorable Mayor and Council Members
City of Diamond Bar
RE: City Manager’s Recommended Budget for Fiscal Year 2026/27
Presented for your consideration and approval, is the City’s Annual Operating
Budget and Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026/27.
Background: Ongoing General Fund Structural Deficit
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget reflects the second year of the City’s ongoing
structural deficit – a structural deficit is where recurring revenues are not able
to keep up with the rate of inflation and cost increases. Unlike one-time or
cyclical shortfalls, a structural deficit requires deliberate and ongoing policy
actions, such as revenue enhancements, expenditure reductions, service-level
adjustments, or other reforms, to eliminate the underlying gap. Though the
Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget is balanced due to one-time revenue increases
from realigned Use Fees, the updated Ten-Year General Fund Forecast remains
largely unchanged from the prior year under a status quo scenario. Unless new
recurring revenues materialize, or further service level reductions are made, the
City can expect to see significant deficits starting as soon as next FY 2027/28
wherein a deficit of $790 thousand is anticipated even at the City's current
reduced service levels. If this pattern holds, the City can expect to see the
complete utilization of the General Fund’s $30 million fund balance by year
eight, putting at stake the high quality of life, level of public safety and public
infrastructure the City has prized since incorporation. Accordingly, while the
Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget represents an important step toward fiscal
stability, continued discipline will be necessary to maintain structural balance
in future years. The Ten-Year General Fund Forecast is included in the
accompanied budget schedules.
Proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund Budget Overview
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating Budget reflects a continued focus on long-
term fiscal sustainability, responsible stewardship of public resources, and the
8Draft
Page 120 of 405
preservation of essential City programs and services. Compared to the prior
year, the City has made meaningful steps toward addressing its structural
deficit through a combination of revenue enhancements and significant
expenditure reductions. Hence, the Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget includes
updated development-related user fees and multiple reductions to selected
programs and services. These proactive actions eliminated an initial starting
deficit of $1.6 million, producing a balanced General Fund budget for the
upcoming fiscal year. However, the expected growth of updated revenues is
not anticipated to match the growth in the rate of inflation and cost increases
for utilities, maintenance, insurance, personnel, and contract/professional
services facing the City (as shown in the ten-year forecast). This fact
necessitates further action to reduce costs or increase revenues ahead of the
next fiscal year.
Presently, General Fund revenues in FY 2026/27 are projected to increase by
5.6% compared to the prior year. As mentioned above, this increase is primarily
attributable to updated user fees for development-related services, which are
projected to increase by 76.8% in the coming year (however, future year
growth is expected to be approximately one percent based on historical fee
activity). This update brings total development fee revenues to approximately
$4.1 million. These updated fees better align cost recovery with the cost of
providing services and reduce the extent to which General Fund resources
subsidize development activity.
In addition to revenue enhancements, the Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget
includes approximately $987 thousand in reductions to programs and services.
These reductions were necessary to balance the budget while preserving core
municipal services and maintaining the City’s commitment to fiscal discipline.
Although difficult, these reductions reflect a measured and proactive
approach to addressing the City’s ongoing fiscal challenges. As a result of
these efforts, the Proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund Budget is balanced and
proposes the one-time use of fund balance in the amount of $27 thousand for
the City's Hazard Mitigation Plan Update.
9Draft
Page 121 of 405
Despite fiscal challenges, the proposed budget continues to prioritize
implementation of the City Council’s high-priority objectives and remains guided
by the three overarching goals in the adopted FY 2024–2027 Strategic Plan:
• Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
• Open, Engaged and Responsive Government
• Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community
FY 2026/27 Department Work Plans
The FY 2026/27 Department Workplans included herein highlight some of the key
initiatives and projects that will be supported, with funding sources, over the next
year, as well as what has been accomplished during the prior year. These
Workplans items are each tied to the 2024-2027 Strategic Plan Goals and
Objectives, and Performance Measures, as a way to measure progress.
10Draft
Page 122 of 405
2024-2027 Strategic Plan
In April 2020, the City Council adopted the 2021-2024
Diamond Bar Strategic Plan which set high-level
aspirational goals and priorities for the community
over a three-year period. With the close of Fiscal Year
2022/23, the City Council adopted an updated 2024-
2027 Strategic Plan in April 2023. The new Strategic
Plan builds upon past success and is designed to
serve as the foundation for consistent policy and
funding decisions, while being flexible enough to
adapt to new, unforeseen challenges and issues.
The 2024-2027 Strategic Plan includes the following
Core Values:
• Community & Livability
• Transparency & Accountability
• Service & Professionalism
To meet these Core Values, the plan establishes Goals and Objectives that set
priorities for consistent policy making and guide the day-to-day operations of the
City. Performance Measures are also identified which are used as key indicators
to gauge progress over time. 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

General Fund Revenues: $34.1 Million
Proposed General Fund revenues for FY 2026/27 have increased $1.8 million, or
5.6%, when compared to the prior FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget. The following
are noteworthy General Fund revenue items incorporated into the proposed FY
2026/27 Operating Budget. The table below compares the prior year adopted
budget to the Proposed FY 2026/27 Budget, and the percent of change for next
fiscal year.
Property Taxes Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
The estimated change in the City's net taxable
value of secured real property for FY 2026/27 is
expected to increase 3.6% ($155 thousand). This
increase is offset by decreases for unsecured and
supplemental property tax rolls which will result in a
net year-over-year change to all Property Tax
revenue categories of 0.6%. The City uses HdL as a
consultant to help monitor, audit and project this
major revenue source.
$6,971,047 $7,013,000
0.6%
Property Tax in Lieu of VLF (Vehicle License Fees) Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
This major revenue source grows at the same
general pace as the City's net taxable value (3.6%).
The City’s consultant, HdL, also assists with the
projection of this significant revenue item.
$8,107,449 $8,399,320
3.6%
Sales Taxes Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
Sales tax revenue is projected to decline by $98
thousand compared to the prior year. This
$6,413,700 $6,315,937
12Draft
Page 124 of 405
downward revision is primarily driven by updated
assumptions regarding statewide and national
economic growth. The City is seeing continued
declines across key sectors, including Business &
Industry ($88 thousand), Fuel & Service Stations ($74
thousand), Food & Drugs ($74 thousand), and
Building & Construction ($7 thousand). These
decreases were offset by increases to General
Consumer Goods ($84 thousand), Restaurants ($38
thousand), and online sales distributed by the
County Pool ($30,000).
For the fourth quarter of 2025 (October–
December), Diamond Bar experienced a 5.9%
decline in sales tax revenue compared to the same
quarter in 2024, ranking 78th out of 88 cities in Los
Angeles County. This trend appears to reflect
Diamond Bar’s unique retail composition, as at least
one neighboring LA County city experienced a
3.9% increase during the same period.
-1.5%
Transient Occupancy Taxes Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
Transient Occupancy Tax is projected to increase
by $90 thousand based on current trends.
$1,449,000 $1,539,000
6.2%
Use of Money & Property Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
Investment Income – General Fund investment
income is anticipated to decline $329 thousand as
the City's portfolio reflects changes to the interest
rate environment and Federal Open Market
Committee policy.
$1,249,000 $920,260
-26.3%
Rental Revenue – Revenue from rentals at the
Diamond Bar Center is anticipated to increase by
$52 thousand.
$1,102,500 $1,163,000
Field and Park Facility Rentals, and related Facility
Security Charges, are anticipated to decrease by
$1,500.
5.5%
Cell tower lease revenue is projected to increase
$10 thousand due to CPI adjustments for current
leases.
13Draft
Page 125 of 405
Current Service Charges Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
Development Fees – Revenue from Building,
Planning and Engineering activity is estimated to
increase $1.8 million due to the recent
comprehensive update to the City's User Fee
Schedule which aimed to recoup the full cost of
providing these services.
$2,315,210 $4,092,688
76.8%
Recreation Programs – Program revenue is
projected to increase $4 thousand mainly due to
Contract Classes and Athletic Programs, offset by a
reduction to Youth Programs.
$618,425 $622,675
0.7%
Gas Tax – Transfer In Adopted Proposed
FY 25/26 FY 2026/27
The Transfer-In from the Gas Tax Fund reimburses
the General Fund for eligible road maintenance
activities each year. However, as maintenance
costs continue to rise, available Gas Tax revenue
remains insufficient to fully cover these expenses.
$1,435,000 $1,435,000
0.0%
General Fund Expenditure Budget: $34.2 Million
Proposed recurring General Fund expenditures for FY 2026/27 have increased
$1.8 million, or 5.6% when compared to the prior FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget. In
addition, staff is proposing a one-time expense in the amount of $56 thousand
for the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan Update, bringing total proposed
expenditures to $34.2 million.
In response to declining revenues and an initial $1.6 million starting deficit, staff
conducted a thorough review of all expense accounts and took deliberate
steps to reduce or eliminate expenses in order to present a balanced budget for
the upcoming year. As a result, $987 thousand has been reduced from the
14Draft
Page 126 of 405
General Fund which significantly affects programs and services for the
upcoming fiscal year. These reductions are in addition to $250 thousand in
ongoing reductions to the FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget which reduced budgets
for vehicle replacements and the parking lot slurry seal program at various
parks.
Key reductions reflected in the Proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund Budget, as
presented during the Community Budget Workshop #1 (held March 3, 2026), are
presented in the table below:

Misc. Public Works Contracts (32,200)
Total Reductions $ (986,947)
Notwithstanding the aforementioned reductions, the following highlighted items
are presented for City Council consideration:
Public Safety:
• Law Enforcement – FY 2026/27 County of Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department
(LASD) expenditures are expected to be approximately $9.1 million,
representing the single largest line item and approximately 26.6% of
proposed General Fund expenditures (down from 27.4%). LASD proposed
expenditures reflect a net increase of $265 thousand year-over-year,
inclusive of a contract rate increase of 2.3% (down from 4.37% in the prior
year) plus an increased Liability Trust Fund (LTF) surcharge of 14.5% (up
from 13% in the prior year) on each contracted position. The General Fund
includes a transfer-in from the Law Enforcement Reserve Fund in the
amount of $25,000 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.
• Crossing Guard Services – The City provides Crossing Guard Services at
seven (7) elementary schools and two (2) middle schools with a total of 16
guards. The total budget for crossing guard services in FY 2026/27 is
$289,800.
• Animal Control – Since incorporation, the City has contracted with the
Inland Valley Humane Society (IVHS) for animal control and licensing
services. The current agreement, last amended in 2021, follows a gross
contract model in which the City pays the full cost of services, offset by
any licensing revenue collected by IVHS. Since last year, three large
member cities have withdrawn from IVHS (Montclair, Chino, Ontario), with
the City of Baldwin Park recently being added into IVHS’ service territory
16Draft
Page 128 of 405
effective July 1, 2026. IVHS also expanded with the acquisition of the San
Gabriel Valley Humane Society, which includes the cities of San Gabriel
and Temple City.
While FY 2025/26 experienced a one-time cost increase of 15%, the FY
2026/27 proposed increase for IVHS Animal Control services is 3%.
The gross cost for this contracted service in FY 2026/27 is anticipated to be
$667,300. After accounting for estimated licensing and service fee
revenues of $80,000, the proposed budget of $587,300 reflects an increase
of $15,500 compared to the previous fiscal year.
Human Resources – 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. 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). This year, staff is planning on implementing
flexible staffing solutions to replace current vacant part-time positions in the
Parks and Recreation and Public Works Departments. These position swaps will
maintain the City’s commitment to investing in optimizing service delivery while
providing minimal fiscal impact in the upcoming year. Having an agile
workforce able to respond to the changing needs of the community and carry
out City priorities is essential. There are sufficient budgeted resources in the
proposed departmental budgets; and the positions, as well as salary ranges,
already exist in the City’s classification and compensation plan. Therefore, the
following position swaps are requested for FY 2026/27 for a total year-one
savings of $2,040.
*Assumed 3.0% COLA in years 2-5.
• 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
in March 2026 was 3.6%. In order to avoid real wage losses and remain an
“Employer of Choice” in the surrounding Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and
17Draft
Page 129 of 405
San Bernardino counties, it is recommended that the salary schedules for all
benefitted classifications of employment including all executive positions, be
increased by 3.6% effective with the pay period beginning June 27, 2026. A
$100 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. This annual COLA and Benefit Allotment adjustment
is a routine maintenance item to preserve the City’s competitive
compensation structure. The total estimated cost is approximately $432
thousand, of which $378 thousand is funded by the General Fund.
Parks & Recreation –The proposed Parks & Recreation department budget was
developed based on continued community interest in valuable programs,
services, and events. With City Council support, the department made several
strategic adjustments while considering the financial challenges facing the City.
These adjustments include the cancelation of the Winter Snow Fest Event,
Movies in the Parks, and reductions to the Concerts in the Park series. Several
programs and events offered this year to support an active and healthy
community include summer youth day camp, senior activities & dances, field
allocations for sports organizations, contract classes, picnic reservations, and
community special events. This fiscal year will also include the Wedding and
Event Expo at the DBC, which serves to promote the facility and is a mostly a
cost-neutral event. Traditional special events, including the Windmill Lighting,
Veterans Recognition Ceremony, and the Halloween Party, will continue to
bring the community together.
Expenses for recreation programs ($2.75 million, a 0.6% decrease) and Diamond
Bar Center operations ($1.81 million, a 2.8% increase) have been adjusted
commensurate with anticipated activities and service level reductions for a
combined budget of $4.56 million, a total increase of $32 thousand from the
prior year. Total departmental revenue, including Diamond Bar Center rentals
($750 thousand, an increase of $50 thousand from the prior year) and other
recreation program revenue ($622 thousand, an increase of $4 thousand from
the prior year amount) is budgeted at $1.37 million for FY 2026/27.
Special Revenue Fund Highlights
• Integrated Waste Management Fund (250) – The proposed budget of $1.1
million includes a proposed line item for $180 thousand for a routine
Residential and Commercial Waste Hauler Compliance Audit, a
reimbursable cost paid for by the waste haulers. In addition, $21 thousand
is proposed for expanded student waste reduction and recycling field
18Draft
Page 130 of 405
trips. Additionally, the City has maintained a student environmental
education program for 3rd-6th graders with Discovery Cube for several
years. This program, budgeted at $40 thousand, has been well-received
by schools as it provides a fun and interactive way to educate students
about recycling, organic waste, and sustainable purchasing choices.
Additionally, it supports the goals of SB 1383, particularly through Discovery
Cube’s organics lab, which includes composting and vermicomposting
activities.
• Lighting & Landscape Assessment Districts (LLADs) – Much work has been
done in recent years to address operating deficits and reduce General
Fund subsidies to the LLADs, particularly Districts 39-2022 and 41-2021. Total
General Fund contributions to all three districts for FY 2026/27 is budgeted
at $149 thousand, a decrease of $126 thousand from the prior year.
Budgeted resources and expenditures for all three districts for FY 2026/27
are shown below. It should be noted that some districts are utilizing fund
balance for proposed operations and that the General Fund subsidy to
LLAD No. 38 was reduced as part of the budget balancing strategy for FY
2026/27:
• Traffic Mitigation Fund (246) – The City receives Traffic Mitigation Funds to
address transportation system impacts associated with development. Staff
is recommending the establishment of a prioritized list of street
improvement projects to ensure these funds are deployed strategically
and transparently. The proposed budget of $350,000 will utilize interest
earned on the funds to aid the City’s effort to:
o Align traffic mitigation fund expenditures with nexus and eligibility
requirements
o Prioritize traffic mitigation projects that best improve traffic flow and
safety
o Provide a clear and defensible framework for future project
selection.
19Draft
Page 131 of 405
• Tres Hermanos Fund (248) – The proposed budget of $120 thousand (an
increase of $40 thousand) is for the City’s share of maintenance costs
provided to the Tres Hermanos Conservation Authority.
• AB 2766 Air Quality Management District Fund (251) – AB 2766 Air Quality
Management District Fund (251) – The proposed budget of $74 thousand
represents no change from the prior year. A total of $35,000 is being
shifted from the neighborhood traffic management program (NTMP) to
fund the lease of four (4) zero-emission fleet vehicles, leaving sufficient
funds in the amount of $39,000 to accommodate citizen requests for
traffic improvements.
• Beverage Container Recycling Grant Fund (254) – The proposed $14
thousand budget includes new recycling receptacles for business and
school programs.
• Hazard Mitigation Fund (256) – The proposed budget of $221 thousand is
requested to updated the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan in order to remain
in compliance with FEMA and State planning requirements. City staff
submitted a grant application in 2025 and are awaiting FEMA’s
determination. There is a corresponding request of $56,000 from the
General Fund to meet the granting agency’s 25% cost-share requirement.
• Park Development Fund (262) – The proposed budget of $250 thousand is
for the construction of the Sycamore Canyon Park Lower Bridge
Replacement project as discussed in the FY 2026/27 CIP.
Internal Service Funds Highlights
• Debt Service Fund (401) – 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 $1.63 million (or 20.85%) for the
General Fund, 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) for FY 2026/27 will be $722 thousand, and is funded
by a transfer to the Debt Service Fund from the General Fund.
20Draft
Page 132 of 405
• Self-Insurance Fund (501) – CA Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA)
covers the City’s Property, Pollution Liability, Crime, General Liability and
Workers’ Compensation needs. The combined premiums for Property,
Pollution, Crime and General Liability are anticipated to be approximately
$820 thousand, which reflects a year-over-year increase of $169 thousand
(26%). This amount is up from the prior year increase of $117 thousand
which, at the time, represented a year-over-year increase of 22%. All
funding for the Self-Insurance Fund is provided by a transfer-in from the
General Fund.
• Vehicle Maintenance & Replacement Fund (502) – The proposed budget
of $137 thousand is recommended for necessary operations and
maintenance of the citywide fleet, as well as the lease of four (4) new
zero-emission electric vehicles funded by a transfer-in from the AB 2766
Fund (fund 251) in the amount of $35 thousand. The remaining budget of
$102 thousand is requested to cover fuel and maintenance costs for the
City’s current fleet, and is provided by a transfer-in from the General
Fund.
• Computer Equipment Maint. & Replacement Fund (503) – The proposed
budget of $208 thousand is recommended for necessary information
systems, hardware upgrades, and replacements, such as:
• Additional mobile touch screens for ELM project ($5 thousand)
• (2) Multi-function Copier Replacements ($25 thousand)
• (2) Firewalls ($15 thousand)
• (2) Timer Server Replacements ($18 thousand)
• Additional Tyler support for post go-live reporting ($45 thousand)
Plus items carried over from the prior year:
• Phase 2 ELM System Integration with Laserfische and Financial System
($80 thousand)
• New Touch-Screens for Employee Time Keeping ($20 thousand)
• Building Facility & Replacement Fund (504) – Proposed revenues include a
transfer-in from the General Fund in the amount of $100 thousand, per the
City’s adopted fund balance policy. There are no expenses proposed for
2026/27.
Fiduciary Fund
• OPEB Trust Fund (601) – The proposed budget of $115 thousand consists
only of revenue via a transfer-in from the General Fund in the amount of
21Draft
Page 133 of 405
$88,000 and investment earnings in the amount of $26,600 designated to
fund the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Trust, an
investment vehicle managed by CalPERS for the purpose of reducing the
City’s long-term OPEB liabilities (e.g. retiree medical costs). This amount is
unchanged from the prior fiscal year. There are no expenses budgeted in
this fund.
Proposed FY 2026/27 Capital Improvement Program
Conclusion
The Proposed FY 2026/27 Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program
reflects a disciplined and balanced approach to addressing the City’s ongoing
fiscal challenges. Through updated user fees, increased General Fund revenues,
and approximately $987,000 in program and service reductions, the proposed
budget closes an initial $1.6 million deficit while maintaining funding for essential
City operations and priority capital needs.
While this represents meaningful progress, the City’s long-term forecast projects a
renewed General Fund shortfall of approximately $790 thousand in FY 2027/28. As
a result, continued fiscal discipline and efforts to align ongoing revenues with
ongoing expenditures will remain necessary. Staff will continue working on
strategies to strengthen long-term fiscal sustainability, including opportunities to
enhance revenues, control costs, and evaluate service delivery priorities and will
explore recommendations with the City Council in the coming months.
I would like to express my appreciation to the Executive Management Team,
especially Finance Director Jason M. Jacobsen, for their efforts in preparing this
year’s 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.
22Draft
Page 134 of 405
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 Community
Values: Community & Livability, Transparency & Accountability, Service &
Professionalism.
Respectfully submitted,
Daniel Fox

BASIS OF BUDGETING
The City of Diamond Bar's annual operating budget is prepared in conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP) unless otherwise noted below:
1. The budgetary basis for governmental funds (e.g. General Fund, CIP Fund, Special Revenue funds, Debt
Service Fund) is in conformity with GAAP, with a few minor exceptions. In conformity with GAAP, the modified
accrual basis of accounting is used wherein 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. However, in the following cases the
budgetary basis differs from GAAP:
a. Adjustments to recognize gains and losses on investments resulting from changes in their market value are
not budgeted.
b. Items reported as “other financing sources” and “other financing uses” are classified as revenues and
expenditures under the budgetary basis of accounting.
2. The budgetary basis for proprietary funds (e.g. Internal Service funds) is in conformity with GAAP, using the
accrual basis of accounting for all revenues and expenses, except for the following instances:
a. The receipt of long-term debt proceeds, capital outlays, and debt service principal payments are budgeted,
but allocations for depreciation and amortization
expense are not.
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.
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.

BUDGET PROCESS
BUDGET STUDY SESSION DETAIL
The City Council devotes one Budget Study Session to the annual Capital Improvement Program for the
upcoming fiscal year. At this CIP Study Session, staff presents the recommended draft 5-year Capital
Improvement Program to the City Council along with the recommended projects for the upcoming fiscal year.
Members of the City Council are presented with details on each individual project, along with its recommended
budget and funding source, and are given the opportunity to propose new projects. A consensus is then
reached at the study session as to the final list of projects to include in the proposed budget for the upcoming
fiscal year.

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.
- The City Manager may approve budget amendments to carryover unspent appropriations from the prior year,
as authorized by the annual budget resolution.

FINANCIAL POLICIES
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. A balanced budget is defined as a budget in which operating revenues should cover operating
expenditures, including debt service. The ending fund balance must meet minimum policy levels. For the
general fund, this level has been stablished at 25%. Under this policy, it is allowable for total expenditures to
exceed revenues in a given year; however, in this sutation, beginning fund balance can only be used to fund
capital improvement plan projects, or other "one-time," non-recurring expenditures.
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
City of Diamond Bar Budget
Fiscal Year 26/27
www.diamondbarca.gov
60Draft Page 172 of 405
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.
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.

REVENUE DESCRIPTIONS
All revenues which, by law, do not have to be placed in a separate fund are deposited in the General Fund. All
general operations of the City are charged to this fund. All expenditures must be made pursuant to
appropriations, which lapse annually and at the end of the fiscal year. Unexpended balances are transferred to
the unappropriated reserve.
PROPERTY TAXES
Secured - Current Year
Tax levied on secured property pursuant to the revenue and taxation code.
Unsecured - Current Year
Tax levied on all personal property not secured by real property held in title by the same owner. Due to the
transitory nature of unsecured property, a tax is levied immediately after assessed values are determined.
Supplemental Roll
Taxes levied when secured property is sold to a new owner. It is calculated as the difference between what the
seller paid for property tax and what the new owner is expected to pay prorated from the time of closing
escrow until the next property tax bill is prepared by the Assessor.
Prior Year Uncollected
Taxes paid in the current year, which were due in a prior year.
Interest and Penalties
Interest and penalties charged for the late payment of property taxes.
Consultant HdL & Companies provides annual estimates for Secured and Unsecured Property Taxes.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUE
Property Tax In-Lieu of Vehicle License Fee (VLF)
The VLF is a tax imposed by the state on the ownership of registered vehicles. In 2004, the State issued a
permanent reduction to the VLF. To offset the reduction to the VLF, the Cities receive additional property tax.
This 'property tax in-lieu of VLF' is determined by the change in the gross assessed valuation of taxable
properties within the jurisdiction from the prior year. As mentioned, this tax is an additional property tax to the
other property tax apportionments. These funds are included in the budget as 'Property Tax In-Liue of VLF'

205 - GAS TAX FUND
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.

401 - DEBT SERVICE FUND
FUND DESCRIPTION
This fund was established to account for governmental debt incurred by the City. The Debt Service fund will
account for the payment of principal, interest and related administrative costs incurred (e.g. bank fees). The
General Fund makes a transfer-in to the Debt Service Fund to provide the resources needed to meet the City’s
debt obligations.
The City’s only outstanding debt relates to the 2002 financing needed for the acquisition and construction of
the Diamond Bar Center. In May 2021, the City refunded $7.83 million of the outstanding Lease Revenue Bonds
associated with the original 2002 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 to the General Fund for the remainder of the
term (June 2033), and 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 City Council's prudent fiscal policies. The total debt service
(principal and interest) will be $722,000 for FY 2026-27. The current bonds mature June 1, 2033 and the
outstanding amount is approximately $5.0 million as of July 1, 2026. The City’s legal debt limit as of July 1, 2026
is $477.9 million.

501 - SELF INSURANCE FUND
FUND DESCRIPTION
This fund was originally established in 1989 to pay all self-assumed losses and related costs. The City became a
member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority in 1990 to provide a variety of insurance programs
reducing the City's exposure to potential losses. This fund was amended in FY 2025/26 to provide for potential
uninsured losses, claims and deductibles. Contributions to this fund are from the General Fund.

APPROPRIATION LIMIT CALCULATION
(GANN LIMIT)
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 $68,333,798 for FY 2026-27.

EXHIBIT “A”
Investment Policy
1. Policy
1.1 This Statement is intended to provide guidelines for the prudent
investment of the City of Diamond Bar’s (“City”) 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.
It is the policy of the City Council to review, update and adopt the City's
Investment Policy on an annual basis.
2. Scope
2.1 This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City of
Diamond Bar.
The Policy applies to the following funds and is accounted for in the
City’s annual audited financial statements.
a. General Fund
b. Special Revenue Funds
c. Debt Service Funds
d. Capital Improvement Fund
e. Internal Service Funds
3. Standards of Prudence
3.1 The City Treasurer (or Finance Director) authorized to make investment
decisions on behalf of the City of Diamond Bar investing public funds
Page 369 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 2 of 37
pursuant to this policy are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to
the prudent investor standard. When investing, reinvesting, purchasing,
acquiring, exchanging, selling and managing public funds, a trustee
shall act with care, skill, prudence and diligence under the
circumstances then prevailing, including but not limited to, the general
economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the City, that a
prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those
matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with
like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of
the City. Within the limitations of this section and considering individual
investments as part of an overall strategy, the City Treasurer or Finance
Director is authorized to acquire investments as authorized by law.
4. Investment Objectives
4.1 The investment of funds of the City of Diamond Bar is directed to the
goals of safety, liquidity and yield. The authority governing investments
for municipal governments is set forth in the Government Code, Sections
53600, et. seq.
4.1.1. Safety. Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the
investment program. Investments of the City of Diamond Bar shall
be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation
of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City
of Diamond Bar will diversify its investments by investing funds
among a variety of securities with independent returns. The City
will operate only in those investments that are considered very
safe.
4.1.2. Liquidity. The investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to
meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably
anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so
that securities mature at the same time as cash is needed to meet
anticipated demands. Additionally, since all possible cash
demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio will consist largely
of securities with active secondary or resale markets or local
government investment pools which offer same-day liquidity for
short-term funds.
4.1.3. Yield. The investment portfolio shall be designed with the
objective of achieving a competitive market rate of return or
yield, while taking into account the investment risk constraints and
Page 370 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 3 of 37
liquidity needs. Return on investment is of secondary importance
compared to safety and liquidity. The core investments shall be
limited to low risk securities to be held to maturity with the following
exceptions:
a. A security with declining credit may be sold early to minimize
loss of principal.
b. A security swap would improve the quality, yield or target
duration of the portfolio.
c. The liquidity needs of the portfolio require security to be sold.
5. Delegation of Authority
5.1 Authority to manage the City of Diamond Bar’s investment program is
derived from Section 2.16.210 of the City of Diamond Bar’s Municipal
Code which designates the City Manager to perform all duties
associated with the legal function of the treasurer position.
Management responsibility is hereby delegated to the City Treasurer
who shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and for
establishing a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate
officials, and their procedures in the absence of the Treasurer.
6. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest
6.1 Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain
from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution
of the investment program or which could impair their ability to make
impartial investment decisions. Employees and investment officials are
required to file annual disclosure statements as required for “public
officials who manage public investments” (as defined and required by
the Political Reform Act and related regulations, being Government
Code Sections 81000 and the Fair Political Practices Commission [FPPC]).
7. Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions
7.1 The Treasurer (or Finance Director) will maintain a list of approved
financial institutions authorized to provide investment services to the
public agency in the State of California. A determination should be
made to insure that all approved broker/dealer firms and individuals
covering the City of Diamond Bar are reputable and trustworthy. In
Page 371 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 4 of 37
addition, the broker/dealer firms should have the ability to meet all of
their financial obligations in dealing with the City of Diamond Bar. The
firms and individuals covering the City of Diamond Bar should be
knowledgeable and experienced in Public Agency investing and the
investment products involved. No public deposit shall be made except
in a qualified public depository as established by State law. All financial
institutions and broker/dealers who desire to conduct investment
transactions with the City of Diamond Bar must supply the City Treasurer
or the Finance Director with the following: audited financial statements,
proof of NASD certification, trading resolution, proof of State of
California registration, completed broker/dealer questionnaire,
certification of having read the City of Diamond Bar’s investment policy
and depository contracts.
An annual review of the financial condition and registrations of qualified
bidders will be conducted by the Treasurer or the Finance Director. A
current audited financial statement is required to be on file for each
financial institution and broker/dealer with which the City of Diamond
Bar invests.
8. Authorized and Suitable Investments
8.1. The City’s investments are governed by the California Government
Code (CGC). Specific types of investments are defined in CGC 53635.
Also, CGC 53635.2 permits the use of CGC 53601 investment instruments,
therefore, both CGC 53601 et seq. and CGC 53635 et seq. are the
governing sections pertaining to legal investments. Investments will only
be made in authorized securities with a maturity date of five (5) years or
less from the transaction settlement date.
For the purpose of these investments, the compliance with the
investment percentage(s), in regards to the total investment portfolio,
shall be calculated on the date the investment is acquired. If the
percentage is legally compliant on the date of purchase, then
compliance with the law shall have been met.

10. Review of Investment Portfolio
10.1 The securities held by the City of Diamond Bar must be in compliance
with Section 8.0 Authorized and Suitable Investments at the time of
purchase. Because some securities may not comply with Section 8.0
subsequent to the date of purchase the City Treasurer shall at least
quarterly review the portfolio to identify those securities that do not
comply. The City Treasurer shall establish procedures to report to the
City Council major and critical incidences of noncompliance identified
through the review of the portfolio.
Should any investment listed in Section 8 exceed a percentage-of-
portfolio limitation due to an incident such as fluctuation in portfolio size,
the affected securities may be held to maturity to avoid losses. When
no loss is indicated, the Treasurer shall consider rebalancing the portfolio
after evaluating the expected length of time that it will be imbalanced.
Portfolio percentage limits are in place in order to ensure diversification
of the City investment portfolio; a small temporary imbalance will not
significantly impair that strategy.
11. Collateralization
11.1 Collateralization will be required on two types of investments:
certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements. In order to
anticipate market changes and provide a level of security for all funds,
the collateralization level will be 110% of market value of principal and
accrued interest. The City Treasurer, at his/her discretion may waive the
collateral requirement for deposits up to the maximum dollar amount
which are covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
currently $250,000.
12. Safekeeping and Custody
Page 376 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 9 of 37
12.1 All security transactions, including collateral for repurchase agreements,
entered into by the City of Diamond Bar shall be conducted on a
delivery versus payment (DVP) basis. Securities will be held by a third
party custodian designated by the Treasurer and evidenced by
safekeeping receipts.
13. Maximum Maturities
13.1 To the extent possible the City of Diamond Bar will attempt to match its
investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. The prescribed
method of the City of Diamond Bar shall be referred to as “layering” the
investments. Monies not needed to cover immediate operating costs
may be invested up to a five year maturity.
14. Internal Controls
14.1 The City Treasurer and the Finance Director shall establish procedures
that separate the internal responsibility for management and
accounting of the investment portfolio. An analysis by an independent,
external auditor shall be conducted periodically to review internal
controls, account activity and compliance with policies and
procedures.
15. Reporting
15.1 As required by California Government Code Section 53607, a monthly
report of investments will be provided to the City Council. The required
elements of this report are as follows:
a. Type of investment
b. Issuer
c. Date of Maturity
d. Amount of deposit or cost of security

philosophy is to insure that money is always available when needed.

Appendix B
Glossary of Cash and Investment Management Terms
Accrued Interest. Interest earned but which has not yet been paid or received.
Agency. See "Federal Agency Securities."
Ask Price. Price at which a broker/dealer offers to sell a security to an investor.
Also known as “offered price.”
Asset Backed Securities (ABS). A fixed-income security backed by notes or
receivables against assets other than real estate. Generally issued by special
purpose companies that “own” the assets and issue the ABS. Examples include
securities backed by auto loans, credit card receivables, home equity loans,
manufactured housing loans, farm equipment loans and aircraft leases.
Average Life. The average length of time that an issue of serial bonds and/or
term bonds with a mandatory sinking fund feature is expected to be
outstanding.
Bankers' Acceptance (BA's). A draft or bill of exchange drawn upon and
accepted by a bank. Frequently used to finance shipping of international
goods. Used as a short-term credit instrument, bankers' acceptances are traded
at a discount from face value as a money market instrument in the secondary
market on the basis of the credit quality of the guaranteeing bank.
Basis Point. One hundredth of one percent, or 0.01%. Thus 1% equals 100 basis
points.
Bearer Security. A security whose ownership is determined by the holder of the

bearer securities is transferred by delivery of the physical security or certificate.
Also known as “physical securities.”

Benchmark Bills: In November 1999, FNMA introduced its Benchmark Bills
program, a short-term debt securities issuance program to supplement its
existing discount note program. The program includes a schedule of larger,
weekly issues in three- and six-month maturities and biweekly issues in one-year
for Benchmark Bills. Each issue is brought to market via a Dutch (single price)
auction. FNMA conducts a weekly auction for each Benchmark Bill maturity and
accepts both competitive and non-competitive bids through a web based
auction system. This program is in addition to the variety of other discount note
maturities, with rates posted on a daily basis, which FNMA offers. FNMA's
Benchmark Bills are unsecured general obligations that are issued in book- entry
form through the Federal Reserve Banks. There are no periodic payments of
interest on Benchmark Bills, which are sold at a discount from the principal
amount and payable at par at maturity. Issues under the Benchmark program
constitute the same credit standing as other FNMA discount notes; they simply
add organization and liquidity to the short-term Agency discount note market.
Benchmark Notes/Bonds: Benchmark Notes and Bonds are a series of FNMA
“bullet” maturities (non-callable) issued according to a pre-announced
calendar. Under its Benchmark Notes/Bonds program, 2, 3, 5, 10 and 30- year
maturities are issued each quarter. Each Benchmark Notes new issue has a
minimum size of $4 billion, 30- year new issues having a minimum size of $1 billion,
with re-openings based on investor demand to further enhance liquidity. The
amount of non-callable issuance has allowed FNMA to build a yield curve in
Benchmark Notes and Bonds in maturities ranging from 2 to 30 years. The
liquidity emanating from these large size issues has facilitated favorable
financing opportunities through the development of a liquid overnight and term
repo market. Issues under the Benchmark program constitute the same credit
standing as other FNMA issues; they simply add organization and liquidity to the
intermediate- and long-term Agency market.
Benchmark. A market index used as a comparative basis for measuring the
performance of an investment portfolio. A performance benchmark should
represent a close correlation to investment guidelines, risk tolerance and
duration of the actual portfolio's investments.
Bid Price. Price at which a broker/dealer offers to purchase a security from an
investor.
Bond Market Association (BMA). The bond market trade association
representing the largest securities markets in the world. In addition to publishing
a Master Repurchase Agreement, widely accepted as the industry standard
Page 385 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 18 of 37
document for Repurchase Agreements, the BMA also recommends bond
market closures and early closes due to holidays.
Bond. Financial obligation for which the issuer promises to pay the bondholder
(the purchaser or owner of the bond) a specified stream of future cash flows,
including periodic interest payments and a principal repayment.
Book Entry Securities. Securities that are recorded in a customer’s account
electronically through one of the financial markets electronic delivery and
custody systems, such as the Fed Securities wire, DTC and PTC (as opposed to
bearer or physical securities). The trend is toward a certificate-free society in
order to cut down on paperwork and to diminish investors’ concerns about the
certificates themselves. The vast majority of securities are now book entry
securities.
Book Value. The value at which a debt security is reflected on the holder's
records at any point in time. Book value is also called “amortized cost” as it
represents the original cost of an investment adjusted for amortization of
premium or accretion of discount. Also called “carrying value.” Book value can
vary over time as an investment approaches maturity and differs from “market
value” in that it is not affected by changes in market interest rates.
Broker/Dealer. A person or firm transacting securities business with customers. A
“broker” acts as an agent between buyers and sellers, and receives a
commission for these services. A “dealer” buys and sells financial assets from its
own portfolio. A dealer takes risk by owning inventory of securities, whereas a
broker merely matches up buyers and sellers. See also "Primary Dealer."
Bullet Notes/Bonds. Notes or bonds that have a single maturity date and are
non-callable.
California Local Agency Bonds: Bonds that are issued by a California county,
city, city and county, including a chartered city or county, school district,
community college district, public district, county board of education, county
superintendent of schools, or any public or municipal corporation.
Call Date. Date at which a call option may be or is exercised.
Call Option. The right, but not the obligation, of an issuer of a security to redeem
a security at a specified value and at a specified date or dates prior to its stated
maturity date. Most fixed-income calls are a par, but can be at any previously
established price. Securities issued with a call provision typically carry a higher
Page 386 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 19 of 37
yield than similar securities issued without a call feature. There are three primary
types of call options (1) European - one-time calls, (2) Bermudan - periodically
on a predetermined schedule (quarterly, semi-annual, annual), and (3)
American - continuously callable at any time on or after the call date. There is
usually a notice period of at least 5 business days prior to a call date.
Callable Bonds/Notes. Securities, which contain an imbedded call option giving
the issuer, the right to redeem the securities prior to maturity at a predetermined
price and time.
Certificate of Deposit (CD). Bank obligation issued by a financial institution
generally offering a fixed rate of return (coupon) for a specified period of time
(maturity). Can be as long as 10 years to maturity, but most CDs purchased by
public agencies are one year and under.
Collateral. Investment securities or other property that a borrower pledges to
secure repayment of a loan, secure deposits of public monies, or provide
security for a repurchase agreement.
Collateralization. Process by which a borrower pledges securities, property, or
other deposits for securing the repayment of a loan and/or security.
Collateralized Mortgage Obligation (CMO). A security that pools together
mortgages and separates them into short, medium, and long-term positions
(called tranches). Tranches are set up to pay different rates of interest
depending upon their maturity. Interest payments are usually paid monthly. In
“plain vanilla” CMOs, principal is not paid on a tranche until all shorter tranches
have been paid off. This system provides interest and principal in a more
predictable manner. A single pool of mortgages can be carved up into
numerous tranches each with its own payment and risk characteristics.
Commercial Paper. Short term unsecured promissory note issued by a company
or financial institution. Issued at a discount and matures for par or face value.
Usually a maximum maturity of 270 days, and given a short-term debt rating by
one or more NRSROs.
Convexity. A measure of a bond's price sensitivity to changing interest rates. A
high convexity indicates greater sensitivity of a bond's price to interest rate
changes.
Corporate Note. A debt instrument issued by a corporation with a maturity of
greater than one year and less than ten years.
Page 387 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 20 of 37
Counterparty. The other party in a two party financial transaction. "Counterparty
risk" refers to the risk that the other party, to a transaction, will fail in its related
obligations. For example, the bank or broker/dealer in a repurchase
agreement.
Coupon Rate. Annual rate of interest on a debt security, expressed as a
percentage of the bond’s face value.
Current Yield. Annual rate of return on a bond based on its price. Calculated
as (coupon rate / price), but does not accurately reflect a bond’s true yield
level.
Custody. Safekeeping services offered by a bank, financial institution or trust
company, referred to as the “custodian.” Service normally includes the holding
and reporting of the customer's securities, the collection and disbursement of
income, securities settlement and market values.
Dealer. A dealer, as opposed to a broker, acts as a principal in all transactions,
buying and selling for his own account.
Delivery Versus Payment (DVP). Settlement procedure in which securities are
delivered versus payment of cash, but only after cash has been received. Most
security transactions, including those through the Fed Securities Wire system and
DTC, are done DVP as a protection for both the buyer and seller of securities.
Depository Trust Company (DTC). A firm through which members can use a
computer to arrange for securities to be delivered to other members without
physical delivery of certificates. A member of the Federal Reserve System and
owned mostly by the New York Stock Exchange, the Depository Trust Company
uses computerized debit and credit entries. Most corporate securities,
commercial paper, CDs and BAs clear through DTC.
Derivatives. For hedging purposes, common derivatives are options, futures,
swaps and swaptions. All Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”) are
derivatives. (1) Financial instruments whose return profile is linked to, or derived
from, the movement of one or more underlying index or security, and may
include a leveraging factor, or (2) financial contracts based upon notional
amounts whose value is derived from an underlying index or security (interest
rates, foreign exchange rates, equities or commodities).
Page 388 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 21 of 37
Derivative Security. Financial instrument created from, or whose value depends
upon, one or more underlying assets or indexes of asset values.
Designated Bond. FFCB’s regularly issued, liquid, non-callable securities that
generally have a 2 or 3 year original maturity. New issues of Designated Bonds
are $1 billion or larger. Re-openings of existing Designated Bond issues are
generally a minimum of $100 million. Designated Bonds are offered through a
syndicate of two to six dealers. Twice each month the Funding Corporation
announces its intention to issue a new Designated Bond, reopen an existing
issue, or to not issue or reopen a Designated Bond. Issues under the Designated
Bond program constitute the same credit standing as other FFCB issues; they
simply add organization and liquidity to the intermediate- and long-term
Agency market.
Discount Notes. Unsecured general obligations issued by Federal Agencies at a
discount. Discount notes mature at par and can range in maturity from
overnight to one year. Very large primary (new issue) and secondary markets.
Discount Rate. Rate charged by the system of Federal Reserve Banks on
overnight loans to member banks. Changes to this rate are administered by the
Federal Reserve and closely mirror changes to the “fed funds rate.”
Discount Securities. Non-interest bearing money market instruments that are
issued at discount and redeemed at maturity for full face value. Examples
include: U.S. Treasury Bills, Federal Agency Discount Notes, Bankers'
Acceptances and Commercial Paper.
Discount. The amount by which a bond or other financial instrument sells below
its face value. See also "Premium."
Diversification. Dividing investment funds among a variety of security types,

Cooperatives, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, and Federal Land Banks.
Frequent issuer of discount notes, agency notes and callable agency securities.
FFCB debt is not an obligation of, nor is it guaranteed by the U.S. government,
although it is considered to have minimal credit risk due to its importance to the
U.S. financial system and agricultural industry. Also issues notes under its
“designated note” program.
Federal Funds (Fed Funds). Funds placed in Federal Reserve Banks by
depository institutions in excess of current reserve requirements, and frequently
loaned or borrowed on an overnight basis between depository institutions.
Federal Funds Rate (Fed Funds Rate). The interest rate charged by a depository

Freddie Mac. See "Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation".
Ginnie Mae. See "Government National Mortgage Association".
Global Notes: Notes designed to qualify for immediate trading in both the
domestic U.S. capital market and in foreign markets around the globe. Usually
large issues that are sold to investors worldwide and therefore have excellent
liquidity. Despite their global sales, global notes sold in the U.S. are typically
denominated in U.S. dollars.
Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA or "Ginnie Mae"). One of
the large Federal Agencies. Government-owned Federal Agency that acquires,
packages, and resells mortgages and mortgage purchase commitments in the
form of mortgage-backed securities. Largest issuer of mortgage pass-through
securities. GNMA debt is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government (one of the few agencies that is actually full faith and credit of the
U.S.).
Government Securities. An obligation of the U.S. government, backed by the
full faith and credit of the government. These securities are regarded as the
highest quality of investment securities available in the U.S. securities market. See
"Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, and SLGS."
Government Sponsored Enterprise (GSE). Privately owned entity subject to
federal regulation and supervision, created by the U.S. Congress to reduce the
cost of capital for certain borrowing sectors of the economy such as students,
farmers, and homeowners. GSEs carry the implicit backing of the U.S.
Government, but they are not direct obligations of the U.S. Government. For this
reason, these securities will offer a yield premium over U.S. Treasuries. Some
consider GSEs to be stealth recipients of corporate welfare. Examples of GSEs
include: FHLB, FHLMC, FNMA and SLMA.
Government Sponsored Enterprise Security. A security issued by a Government
Sponsored Enterprise. Considered Federal Agency Securities.
Index. A compilation of statistical data that tracks changes in the economy or in
financial markets.
Interest-Only (IO) STRIP. A security based solely on the interest payments from
the bond. After the principal has been repaid, interest payments stop and the
Page 393 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 26 of 37
value of the security falls to nothing. Therefore, IOs are considered risky
investments. Usually associated with mortgage-backed securities.
Internal Controls. An internal control structure ensures that the assets of the entity
are protected from loss, theft, or misuse. The internal control structure is designed
to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of
reasonable assurance recognizes that 1) the cost of a control should not
exceed the benefits likely to be derived and 2) the valuation of costs and
benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. Internal controls
should address the following points:
1. Control of collusion - Collusion is a situation where two or more
employees are working in conjunction to defraud their employer.
2. Separation of transaction authority from accounting and record
keeping - By separating the person who authorizes or performs the
transaction from the people who record or otherwise account for the
transaction, a separation of duties is achieved.
3. Custodial safekeeping - Securities purchased from any bank or dealer
including appropriate collateral (as defined by state law) shall be placed
with an independent third party for custodial safekeeping.
4. Avoidance of physical delivery securities - Book-entry securities are
much easier to transfer and account for since actual delivery of a
document never takes place. Delivered securities must be properly
safeguarded against loss or destruction. The potential for fraud and
loss increases with physically delivered securities.
5. Clear delegation of authority to subordinate staff members -
Subordinate staff members must have a clear understanding of their
authority and responsibilities to avoid improper actions. Clear delegation
of authority also preserves the internal control structure that is contingent
on the various staff positions and their respective responsibilities.
6. Written confirmation of transactions for investments and wire transfers -
Due to the potential for error and improprieties arising from telephone and
electronic transactions, all transactions should be supported by written
communications and approved by the appropriate person. Written
communications may be via fax if on letterhead and if the safekeeping
institution has a list of authorized signatures.
Page 394 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 27 of 37
7. Development of a wire transfer agreement with the lead bank and

agreement will be entered into and will address the following points:
controls, security provisions, and responsibilities of each party making
and receiving wire transfers.
Inverse Floater. A floating rate security structured in such a way that it reacts
inversely to the direction of interest rates. Considered risky as their value moves
in the opposite direction of normal fixed-income investments and whose interest
rate can fall to zero.

Investment Grade. Bonds considered suitable for preservation of invested
capital; bonds rated a minimum of Baa3 by Moody’s, BBB- by Standard & Poor’s,

Liquidity. Relative ease of converting an asset into cash without significant loss
of value. Also, a relative measure of cash and near-cash items in a portfolio of
assets. Also, a term describing the marketability of a money market security
correlating to the narrowness of the spread between the bid and ask prices.
Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF): A voluntary investment fund open to state
and local government entities and certain non-profit organizations in California
in which organization pools their funds for investment. LAIF is managed by the
State Treasurer’s Office.

bankers' acceptances, and repurchase agreements. Money market mutual
funds are registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940
and are subject “rule 2a-7” which significantly limits average maturity and credit
quality of holdings. MMF’s are managed to maintain a stable net asset value
(NAV) of $1.00. Many MMFs carry ratings by a NRSRO.
Moody's Investors Service. One of several NRSROs that provide credit ratings on
corporate and municipal debt issues.
Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS). Mortgage-backed securities represent an
ownership interest in a pool of mortgage loans made by financial institutions,
such as savings and loans, commercial banks, or mortgage companies, to
finance the borrower's purchase of a home or other real estate. The majority of
MBS are issued and/or guaranteed by GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC. There are a
variety of MBS structures, some of which can be very risky and complicated. All
MBS have reinvestment risk as actual principal and interest payments are
dependent on the payment of the underlying mortgages which can be prepaid

($100,000 and larger) that are issued in bearer form and can be traded in the
secondary market.
Net Asset Value. The market value of one share of an investment company,
such as a mutual fund. This figure is calculated by totaling a fund's assets which
includes securities, cash, and any accrued earnings, subtracting this from the
fund's liabilities and dividing this total by the number of shares outstanding. This is
calculated once a day based on the closing price for each security in the fund's
portfolio. (See below.)
[(Total assets) - (Liabilities)]/(Number of shares outstanding)
NRSRO. A “Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization.” A
designated rating organization that the SEC has deemed a strong national

submit daily reports of market activity and security positions held to the Fed and
are subject to its informal oversight. Primary dealers are considered the largest
players in the U.S. Treasury securities market.
Prime Paper. Commercial paper of high quality. Highest rated paper is A-1+/A-1
by S&P and P-1 by Moody’s.
Principal. Face value of a financial instrument on which interest accrues. May
be less than par value if some principal has been repaid or retired. For a
transaction, principal is par value times price and includes any premium or
discount.
Prudent Investor Standard. Standard that requires that when investing,
reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public
funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the
circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general
economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent
person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in
the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the
principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency. More stringent than
the “prudent person” standard as it implies a level of knowledge commensurate
with the responsibility at hand.
Range Note. A type of structured note that accrues interest daily at a set
coupon rate that is tied to an index. Most range notes have two coupon levels;
a higher accrual rate for the period the index is within a designated range, the
lower accrual rate for the period that the index falls outside the designated
range. This lower rate may be zero and may result in zero earnings.

current market value. See “Unrealized Gains (Losses).”
Reference Bills: FHLMC’s short-term debt program created to supplement its
existing discount note program by offering issues from one month through one
year, auctioned on a weekly or on an alternating four-week basis (depending
upon maturity) offered in sizeable volumes ($1 billion and up) on a cycle of
regular, standardized issuance. Globally sponsored and distributed, Reference
Bill issues are intended to encourage active trading and market-making and
facilitate the development of a term repo market. The program was designed
to offer predictable supply, pricing transparency and liquidity, thereby providing
alternatives to U.S. Treasury bills. FHLMC’s Reference Bills are unsecured general
corporate obligations. This program supplements the corporation’s existing
discount note program. Issues under the Reference program constitute the
same credit standing as other FHLMC discount notes; they simply add
organization and liquidity to the short-term Agency discount note market.
Reference Notes: FHLMC’s intermediate-term debt program with issuances of 2,
3, 5, 10 and 30-year maturities. Initial issuances range from $2 - $6 billion with re-
openings ranging $1 - $4 billion.
The notes are high-quality bullet structures securities that pay interest
semiannually. Issues under the Reference program constitute the same credit
standing as other FHLMC notes; they simply add organization and liquidity to the
intermediate- and long-term Agency market.
Repurchase Agreement (Repo). A short-term investment vehicle where an
investor agrees to buy securities from a counterparty and simultaneously agrees
to resell the securities back to the counterparty at an agreed upon time and for
an agreed upon price. The difference between the purchase price and the
sale price represents interest earned on the agreement. In effect, it represents a
collateralized loan to the investor, where the securities are the collateral. Can
be DVP, where securities are delivered to the investor’s custodial bank, or “tri-
party” where the securities are delivered to a third party intermediary. Any type
of security can be used as “collateral,” but only some types provide the investor
with special bankruptcy protection under the law. Repos should be undertaken
Page 399 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 32 of 37
only when an appropriate BMA approved master repurchase agreement is in
place.
Reverse Repurchase Agreement (Reverse Repo). A repo from the point of view
of the original seller of securities. Used by dealers to finance their inventory of
securities by essentially borrowing at short-term rates. Can also be used to
leverage a portfolio and in this sense, can be considered risky if used improperly.
Safekeeping. Service offered for a fee, usually by financial institutions, for the
holding of securities and other valuables. Safekeeping is a component of
custody services.
Secondary Market. Markets for the purchase and sale of any previously issued
financial instrument.
Securities Lending. An arrangement between and investor and a custody bank
that allows the custody bank to “loan” the investors investment holdings, reinvest
the proceeds in permitted investments, and shares any profits with the investor.
Should be governed by a securities lending agreement. Can increase the risk of
a portfolio in that the investor takes on the default risk on the reinvestment at the
discretion of the custodian.
Sinking Fund. A separate accumulation of cash or investments (including
earnings on investments) in a fund in accordance with the terms of a trust
agreement or indenture, funded by periodic deposits by the issuer (or other
entity responsible for debt service), for the purpose of assuring timely availability
of moneys for payment of debt service. Usually used in connection with term
bonds.
Spread. The difference between the price of a security and similar maturity U.S.
Treasury investments, expressed in percentage terms or basis points. A spread
can also be the absolute difference in yield between two securities. The
securities can be in different markets or within the same securities market
between different credits, sectors, or other relevant factors.
Standard & Poor's. One of several NRSROs that provide credit ratings on
corporate and municipal debt issues.
STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities).
Acronym applied to U.S. Treasury securities that have had their coupons and
principal repayments separated into individual zero-coupon Treasury securities.
Page 400 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 33 of 37
The same technique and "strips" description can be applied to non-Treasury
securities (e.g. FNMA strips).
Structured Notes. Notes that have imbedded into their structure options such as
step-up coupons or derivative- based returns.
Supranational Debt. The debt of an international or multi-lateral financial
agency used to finance economic and infrastructure development,
environmental protection, poverty reduction and renewable energy around the
world. Supranational debt is typically rated AAA by most NRSRO’s as these
entities are well-capitalized, have significant capital commitments from a
diverse capital base, conservative lending and risk management practices and
strong supervision.
Swap. Trading one asset for another.
TAP Notes: Federal Agency notes issued under the FHLB TAP program.
Launched in 6/99 as a refinement to the FHLB bullet bond auction process. In a
break from the FHLB’s traditional practice of bringing numerous small issues to
market with similar maturities, the TAP Issue Program uses the four most common
maturities and reopens them up regularly through a competitive auction. These
maturities (2, 3, 5 and 10 year) will remain open for the calendar quarter, after
which they will be closed and a new series of TAP issues will be opened to
replace them. This reduces the number of separate bullet bonds issued, but
generates enhanced awareness and liquidity in the marketplace through
increased issue size and secondary market volume.
Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). One of the large Federal Agencies. A wholly
owned corporation of the United States government that was established in
1933 to develop the resources of the Tennessee Valley region in order to
strengthen the regional and national economy and the national defense. Power
operations are separated from non-power operations. TVA securities represent
obligations of TVA, payable solely from TVA's net power proceeds, and are
neither obligations of nor guaranteed by the United States. TVA is currently
authorized to issue debt up to $30 billion. Under this authorization, TVA may also
obtain advances from the U.S. Treasury of up to
$150 million. Frequent issuer of discount notes, agency notes and callable
agency securities.
Total Return. Investment performance measured over a period of time that
includes coupon interest, interest on interest, and both realized and unrealized
Page 401 of 405
Effective Date: 07/01/2025 Page 34 of 37
gains or losses. Total return includes, therefore, any market value
appreciation/depreciation on investments held at period end.
Treasuries. Collective term used to describe debt instruments backed by the
U.S. Government and issued through the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
Includes Treasury bills, Treasury notes, and Treasury bonds. Also a benchmark
term used as a basis by which the yields of non-Treasury securities are compared
(e.g., "trading at 50 basis points over Treasuries").
Treasury Bills (T-Bills). Short-term direct obligations of the United States
Government issued with an original term of one year or less. Treasury bills are
sold at a discount from face value and do not pay interest before maturity. The
difference between the purchase price of the bill and the maturity value is the
interest earned on the bill. Currently, the U.S. Treasury issues 4-week, 13-week
and 26-week T-Bills
Treasury Bonds. Long-term interest-bearing debt securities backed by the U.S.
Government and issued with maturities of ten years and longer by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury. The Treasury stopped issuing Treasury Bonds in
August 2001.
Treasury Notes. Intermediate interest-bearing debt securities backed by the U.S.
Government and issued with maturities ranging from one to ten years by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury. The Treasury currently issues
2-year, 5-year and 10-year Treasury Notes.
Trustee. A bank designated by an issuer of securities as the custodian of funds
and official representative of bondholders. Trustees are appointed to insure
compliance with the bond documents and to represent bondholders in
enforcing their contract with the issuer.
Uniform Net Capital Rule. SEC regulation 15C3-1 that outlines the minimum net
capital ratio (ratio of indebtedness to net liquid capital) of member firms and
non-member broker/dealers.
Unrealized Gains (Losses). The difference between the market value of an
investment and its book value. Gains/losses are “realized” when the security is
actually sold, as compared to “unrealized” gains/losses which are based on

Variable-Rate Security. A bond that bears interest at a rate that varies over time
based on a specified schedule of adjustment (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly, semi-
annually or annually). See also “Floating Rate Note.”
Weighted Average Maturity (or just “Average Maturity”). The average maturity
of all securities and investments of a portfolio, determined by multiplying the par
or principal value of each security or investment by its maturity (days or years),
summing the products, and dividing the sum by the total principal value of the
portfolio. A simple measure of risk of a fixed-income portfolio.
Weighted Average Maturity to Call. The average maturity of all securities and
investments of a portfolio, adjusted to substitute the first call date per security for
maturity date for those securities with call provisions.
Yield Curve. A graphic depiction of yields on like securities in relation to
remaining maturities spread over a time line. The traditional yield curve depicts
yields on U.S. Treasuries, although yield curves exist for Federal Agencies and
various credit quality corporates as well. Yield curves can be positively sloped
(normal) where longer-term investments have higher yields, or “inverted”
(uncommon) where longer-term investments have lower yields than shorter
ones.
Yield to Call (YTC). Same as “Yield to Maturity,” except the return is measured to
the first call date rather than the maturity date. Yield to call can be significantly
higher or lower than a security’s yield to maturity.
Yield to Maturity (YTM). Calculated return on an investment, assuming all cash
flows from the security are reinvested at the same original yield. Can be higher
or lower than the coupon rate depending on market rates and whether the
security was purchased at a premium or discount. There are different
conventions for calculating YTM for various types of securities.
Yield. There are numerous methods of yield determination. In this glossary, see
also "Current Yield,” "Yield Curve," "Yield to Call" and "Yield to Maturity."

Appendix C
Local Agency Investment Fund
Program Description
The Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) is a voluntary program created by
statute in 1977 as an investment alternative for California’s local governments
and special districts and it continues today under Treasurer John Chiang’s
administration. The enabling legislation for the LAIF is Section 16429.1 et seq. of
the California Government Code.
This program offers local agencies the opportunity to participate in a major
portfolio which invests hundreds of millions of dollars, using the investment
expertise of the Treasurer’s Office investment staff at no additional cost to the
taxpayer.
The LAIF is part of the Pooled Money Investment Account (PIMA). The PMIA
began in 1955 and oversight is provided by the Pooled Money Investment Board
(PMIB) and an in-house Investment Committee. The PMIB members are the State
Treasurer, Director of Finance and State Controller.
The Local Investment Advisory Board (LIAB) provides oversight for LAIF. The Board
consists of five members as designated by statute. The Chairman is the State
Treasurer or his designated representative. Two members qualified by training
and experience in the field of investment or finance, and the State Treasurer
appoints two members who are treasurers, finance or fiscal officers or business
managers employed by any county, city or local district or municipal
corporation of this state. The term of each appointment is two years or at the
pleasure of the Treasurer.
All securities are purchased under the authority of Government Code Section
16430 and 16480.4. The State Treasurer’s Office takes delivery of all securities
purchased on a delivery versus payment basis using a third party custodian. All
investments are purchased at market and a market valuation is conducted
monthly.
Additionally, the PMIA has Policies, Goals, and Objectives for the portfolio to
make certain that our goals of Safety, Liquidity and Yield are not jeopardized,
and that prudent management prevails. These policies are formulated by
investment staff and reviewed by both the PMIB and the LIAB on an annual
basis.

The State Treasurer’s Office is audited by the Bureau of State Audits on an
annual basis and the resulting opinion is posted to the STO website following its
publication. The Bureau of State Audits also has a continuing audit process
throughout the year. All investments and LAIF claims are audited on a daily basis
by the State Controller’s Office as well as an in-house audit process involving
three separate divisions.
Under Federal Law, the State of California cannot declare bankruptcy, thereby
allowing the Government Code Section 16429.3 to stand. This Section states that
“moneys placed with the Treasurer for deposit in the LAIF by cities, counties,
special districts, nonprofit corporations, or qualified quasi-governmental
agencies shall not be subject to either of the following: (a) transfer or loan
pursuant to Sections 16310, 16312, or 16313, or (b) impoundment or seizure by
any state official or state agency.”
During the 2002 legislative session, California Government Code Section 16429.4
was added to the LAIF’s enabling legislation. The Section states that “right of a
city, county, city and county, special district, nonprofit corporation, or qualified
quasi-governmental agency to withdraw its deposited moneys from the LAIF,
upon demand, may not be altered, impaired, or denied in any way, by any
state official or state agency based upon the state’s failure to adopt a State
Budget by July 1 of each new fiscal year.”

Hello,
My name is Stella Guzman. My husband and I have been residents of Diamond Bar since 1978, and
members of the Diamond Bar Senior Citizens Club on Grand Avenue since 2011.
I am writing in support of a budget that will include an automatic door for the center as many of our
senior citizens use walkers or canes and struggle to open the door. The doors are pretty heavy for us to
open and harder with a cane or walker.
Thank you.
Stella and Richard Guzman
