Beatley, Director of Finance/City Treasurer SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2013 MID-YEAR BUDGET REVIEW SUMMARY OF REQUEST: That the City Council receive the presentation. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: Staff has completed a mid-year budget review ending December 31 , 2012. The following are the highlights of the review of the first six months of the current fiscal year. The largest sources of General Fund revenues for Seal Beach are Property Taxes (all components), Utility Users Tax, Sales Taxes (all components), Property Tax in Lieu of Vehicle License Fees, and Transient Occupancy Taxes. Together these top five revenue sources are expected to produce approximately 71%, or $19.8 million, of all General Fund revenues. The combination of these revenue sources has generated approximately $7.5 million for the period ended December 31, 2012 which is $118,000 greater than the same period last year. All of the other General Fund revenues combined are greater than the same period last year by approximately $348,000. The primary reasons for these differences are an increase in the Cable TV Franchise Fees, Business Licenses, Tennis Center Property Rental, and Miscellaneous revenues. General Fund expenditures are approximately 44% of budget, slightly below where they are expected to be for the period ended December 31, 2013. Additionally compared to the same period, total general fund expenditures are less than the same period last year by approximately $113,000. In summary, based upon the period ended December 31, 2012, revenues are slightly ahead of expectations and expenses are slightly lower than expected.
