BACKGROUND:

Finance staff prepares a variety of financial reports for City Council and the Finance Subcommittee. A brief discussion of the attached report follows.

 

DISCUSSION:

Schedule of Demands:

Every two weeks, staff prepares a comprehensive listing of all disbursements with staff certification that the expenditure transactions listed have been reviewed and are within budgeted appropriations.

 

Investment Portfolio:

Detailed Investment reports are provided to the Finance Subcommittee with summary reporting to City Council. The month end portfolio includes a certification by the Finance Director that all investments comply with established Investment Policies (or with Finance Subcommittee approved exceptions), and there is sufficient liquidity to support projected expenditures. 

 

Month End Report:

This package includes summary level financial information for the month ending February 28, 2021. This report marks the eighth month of Fiscal Year 2020-2021 and reflects the annual budget adopted by City Council

 

The report provides monthly and year-to-date activity for all funds and departments presenting a snapshot of budget performance. A report highlighting the performance of key revenue sources is also included.

 

PUBLIC OUTREACH:
After analysis, staff determined that public outreach was not required for this issue.

 

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The City has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA.  Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

 

LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report and determined that no additional legal analysis is necessary.
