STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: DISSCUSS AND APPROVE THE FISCAL YEAR 2019/20
PROPOSED HOUSING AUTHORITY BUDGET
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the fiscal year 2019/20 Housing Authority Budget and recommend
approval by the Housing Authority.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• An overview of the proposed Housing Authority Budget was presented to
the Commission on May 1, 2019 and to the Housing Authority on May 21.
• Revenues are flat and overall expenditures have decreased as a result of
Washington Street Apartments rehabilitation and expansion project,
which does not include additional funding in 2019/20.
• Final budget adoption is scheduled for June 18, 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT
The preliminary Housing Authority budget projects revenues of $741,000 and
expenditures of $879,300. Unappropriated loan repayment revenues of
$635,000 will remain in housing reserves.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Staff provided an overview of the proposed budget to the Commission on May 1
and subsequently to the Housing Authority on May 21. There were no further
recommendations for adjustments at either meeting. The intent of this meeting
is to provide further details on the budget and obtain approval from the
Commission prior to final adoption by the Housing Authority.
Each section contains notes to explain changes from 18/19 to 19/20. The
budget format has been updated to a landscape view with the addition of year-
to-date revenues and expenses and percentage change from the current
2018/19 to proposed 2019/20 budget.
Attachment 1 provides a narrative of Housing Authority revenue and expenses
including the Redevelopment Agency loan repayment to the Authority. Line
BUSINESS ITEM NO. 1
item details for these revenues and expenses are located in Exhibit A of the
Attachment.
ALTERNATIVES
The Commission may recommend further adjustments to the budget. Per State
law, the Authority must adopt a budget by June 30.
Prepared by: Karla Romero, Agency Finance Director
Attachment: 1. Fiscal Year 2019/20 Proposed Budget Overview
Housing Authority Budget
2019/20 PROPOSED BUDGET OVERVIEW
The summary is designed to provide an overview of the Housing Authority Funds. Line item
details for revenues and expenses are located in Exhibit A of the Attachment. A preliminary
verbal update of the proposed budget was provided to the Housing Commission on May 1 and
to the Housing Authority on May 21. The budget is scheduled for adoption on June 18.
The budget provides resources for the evaluation of future affordable housing projects and
programs, ongoing operational needs and property maintenance, as well as legal and auditing
services as required by the Authority.
REVENUES
When all funds are combined, there is no anticipated change in revenues from 2018/19 to
2019/20, however, the sources of those revenues are changing. Due to higher fund balances,
interest earnings are increasing in all funds while second trust deed repayments have been
lowered due to unpredictable home sales. Repayments are typically recognized with a quarterly
budget adjustment when they are received.
EXPENSES
Any used budgeted expenses in 2018/19 for Washington
Street Apartments rehabilitation and expansion project will
be carried to 2019/20. There are no new appropriations
presented for this ongoing project.
The operating Housing Authority Fund (241) has an
anticipated increase of $6,800 which is largely attributed
to an increase in professional services for the management
of affordable housing programs.
The RDA Low-Mod Housing Fund recognizes the annual
loan repayment from the Last and Final Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) for
the Successor Agency (former Redevelopment Agency). For 2019/20 the total loan repayment
is $3,175,327, which is allocated 80% to the General Fund ($2,540,262) and 20% ($635,065)
to the Housing Authority Fund. These revenues will be recognized in reserves in each fund and
are not allocated to current expenses. The final loan repayment is scheduled for fiscal year
2029/30. Funding being budgeted for homeless programs.
The Authority has two bond funds, one of which is being exhausted with the Washington
Street Apartments Project (2004 Bond). The 2011 Bond is anticipated to have a balance of
$16.3 million at June 30, 2019 and a $20,000 budget for 2019/20 provides for the ability to
evaluate future affordable housing projects and programs.
