TELEPHONE 795-5416
June 23, 1970
TO: The Honorable Mayor and
Hembers of the City Council
Gentlemen:
The proposed budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1970
is herewith presented.
As presented in this document, the proposed budget represents
my recommendations for general operations during 197071.
The recommendations were arrived at after a review of the
various departments' conditions, needs, and requests, and
after consultation with the major department heads.
As in prior years, the proposed operating budget does not
include several improvement projects which it is anticipated
will be initiated or completed during the coming fiscal year.
These anticipated projects will be financed by assessment
district proceedings, bond issues, contract financing, from
accumulated per acre assessment fees, or reserves. Included
in such projects are improvements to the water system, such
as Well No. 6 and Storage Tank Teo. 1 which is presently
under construction and the proposed additional well and storage
tank to be constructed on Country Club Drive; expansion and
modification of the waste water collection and disposal
plant for which a contract has been awarded and for which
the Federal government is putting up approximately 75% of
the total cost; the improvement of Snyder Lane; and the
acquisition of additional office space; and any other improve-
ment projects originated during the year.
Although the proposed budget will be reviewed in detail with
the City Council, the following comments are to high -light
certain items contained therein.
Tax Rate
The affect of the proposed budget on the property tax rate
will not be known until the 1970 assessed valuation figures
are received from the Sonoma County Assessor's office.
There may be justification for increasing the property tax
due to spiraling cost of living which the country is experi-
encing, and which affects the City operation just as it
affects othev businesses. however, retention of the present
The Honorable ;Mayor 8 Members of the City Council
June 23; 1970

over -all city tax rate of $1.44 can be sustained by a loan
from the sewer and water funds as has been done in prior years.
A record of.such borrowing is maintained so that as and when
the General Fund becomes better fixed financially, it can
restore the funds borrowed. The present tax rate of $1.44
has been the same for the past two fiscal years, i.e.,
1968 -69 and 1969 -70.
Rohnert Park does have some revenues disadvantages when
compared with other Sonoma County cities. Our position in
relation to sales tax and assessed valuation per capita
places us at or near the bottom of the list. Hopefully, our
standing will change as the city grows.
Even if the City holds the property tax line, property owners
will still experience an increase in property tax rates
based on the anticipated increases in the County and school
districts rates.
II. Revenues
Projection of revenues has been made on a conservative basis
using our most recent experience and information from the
State and the League of California Cities as a guide. Gen-
erally, any significant increases in the budgeted revenues
is a direct result of the increase in the population which
has a direct relation to many of the revenues such as State
Motor Vehicle In Lieu Tax, State Gasoline Tax, and Cigarette
Tax.
Special Department Police Services (Account 353) revenue
has been increased from $1000 in last year's budget to $7,200
in the 1970 -71 budget in anticipation of the payments to be
received fror�. the City of Cotati for contractual police
dispatching service being provided to the Cotati Police
Department.
Projected golf course revenue is $110,000, compared to
$85,000 for the fiscal year now ending. Further comments
concerning the golf course are offered later.
The City had a relatively good year in 1969 -70 insofar as
sales tax is concerned. While $40,000 was budgeted for the
year, the amount actually received was approximately $50,000.
The 1970 -71 budget anticipates $55,000 in sales and use tax
revenues which may be a little low if the rate of increase
experienced in 1969 --70 continues. More information concerning
sales tax will be available in August after we make our
annual detailed investigation in Sacramento of the sales
tax payments and sources for the year ending June 30th.
The Honorable Mayor 8 Hembers of the City Council
June 23, 1970
Page 3.
The amount budgeted in Account 390, Sale of Real or Personal
Property, anticipates the sale to Gulf Oil Corporation of the
excess frontage road right -of -way in front of their future
service station site immediately south of Golf Course Drive.
This item was also budgeted during 1968 -69 and 1969 -70, but
it did not materialize. Possibly it will during 1970 -71 and
$8,000 is included in the budget for same. The balance of
$900 budgeted in this account is $500 for the estimated
revenue from the sale of the Dodge police vehicle and $400
for anticipated sale of miscellaneous surplus items.
III. Personal Services
The amounts budgeted for each department for salaries and
wages reflects the anticipated step increases for regular
employees on the pay scale adopted by the City Council last
year. The budget proposes a 7 -1/2% cost of living adjustment
for all regular employees in a classified position with the
exception of the Superintendent of Public Works, Director of
Public Safety and City Manager positions for which a 3 -1/2%
cost of living adjustment is proposed.
A program for the automatic adjustment for cost of living
increases, such as one in effect at the County of Sonoma,
will be discussed with the Council.
Additional employees proposed in the budget are the full-time
Parks and Recreation Director, a Public Safety Officer, and
a maintenance man for the Public Works Department, plus the
placing of the secretary /clerk in the Police Department on
full --time as compared to her present three - quarter time status.
Funds are provided in the Non- department, Personal Services
category, Account No. 490 -02., for the continuation of the
student - intern program with Sonoma State College.
The Police Protection Personal Services budget, Account No.
505 -01, in addition to providing for an additional Public
Safety Officer also includes the anticipated salary expense
related to the Cadet Program established a few months ago so
as to provide full -time dispatching service. This is the
first time the Cadet program has been budgeted. Part of its
costs is recovered from the City of Cotati.
Included in the Fire Protection budget, Account 510 -02, is
$2;300 to provide compensation for members of the Volunteer
Fire Auxiliary who will be employed on a part -time basis
to maintain the City's fleet of fire apparatus. This is a
new budgeted item and is in recognition of need for more
extensive maintenance on our equipment which it is difficult
to expect our volunteers to perform without compensation.

The honorable Mayor 8 Members of the City Council

The amount of 53,000 shown in the Recreation Commission,
Personal Services budget for Professional Services is for
the anticipated fees for the landscape architect firm under
constract for preparation of the plans for Alicia and Beneeia
Parks and the related school grounds.
Other proposed programs related to personal services are
recommended improvements to the health and medical insurance
program for employees. The expense related to this program
is included in the materials, supplies and services category
and will be commented on below.
Materials, Supplies and Services
A sincere and conscientious effort has been made to keep the
level of expenditures for materials, supplies and services at
or near the level of the ending fiscal year. In many depart-
ments the amounts budgeted are less than last year which
reflects an honest and conscientious effort by department
heads to continually get the most out of each dollar spent
for materials or services. Unusual items and significant
changes in this category of expenses over last year's
budgeted amounts are noted below.
In the Non- departmental budget, Account No. 490, there were
several significant increases:
(a) For office supplies, $4,000 is budgeted as compared
to $2,300 last year. A large amount of this is
applicable to the costs of the office copy machine
which is put to excellent use in providing the
Council with copies of pertinent documents and
correspondence.
(b) OASDI and Public Employees Retirement System costs
for employees is budgeted at $20,000 as compared
to last year's 512,800. the OASDI (Social Security)
rate will go from 4.8% to 5.2% on January 1, 1971
with the base remaining at $7,800.
(c) The City's share of the employees health and insur-
ance program is•$7.000 this year as compared to
$4000 last year. Part of the proposed increase in
this item is to improve the group insurance program
so as to have it reflect more realistic hospital
room rates than it does at present and also to im-
plement some dental coverage for employees and their
dependents. Employees will be expected to continue
to participate in the cost of providing the group
insurance coverage to their dependents as is pre-
sently done.
The Honorable Mayor 8 Members of the City Council
June 239 1970
Page 5.
(d) The Insurance and Surety Bonds budget is increased
$4,000 to $159000. The Council also will recall
the recent discussions that were held with insurance
agent Thomas Feeney relative to the spiraling cost
of insurance and the added costs because of expand-
ing operations and additional equipment.
In the Police Protection budget there are no increases in
excess of $500 over last years for any item related to
materials, supplies and services. The telephone and telegraph
budget has been reduced approximately $400 as a result of
the elimination of the fees paid to the United Answering
Service under our former system for nighttime and weekend
dispatching service.
The Fire Protection materials, supplies and services amounts
are at the same level as last year with the exception of tel e-
phone and telegraph which is down $700 also as a result of
termination of services with United Answering Service. A
significant increase in this department's budget is the
vehicle rental of $17,582 for 1970 -•71 year as compared to the
$10,000 budgeted last year but not used. The $17,582 is the
first payment that will be made in December on the new piece
of fire apparatus delivered in January 1970.
In Public Works, the amounts budgeted for materials, supplies
and services for just about every item is at or near the
same level as last year with the following exceptions:
(a) Water Production and Distribution, Account Aso. 6315
the estimated cost for heat, light and power is
increased $1,500 to $11,000 and the anticipated
cost for Coyote Water purchases is increased $5,000
to $15;000.
(b) In Public Works, Waste Collection and Disposal,
Account No. 640, the amount budgeted for the coming
fiscal year is $33,750 as compared to $27,750 for
last year. The amount in this account is directly
proportionate to the anticipated increase in revenues
from this operation. The amount in the expenditure
section of the budget is 75% of the anticipated
waste collection and disposal revenue shown else-
where in the budget.
The Cultural Arts Commission Budget of $2,000 is the same as
last year and is the amount requested by the Commission.
V. Parks and Recreation
Significant increases in the Parks and Recreation Budget over
last year are proposed. The overall budget total for Parks

operation under which the City would receive 50 of gross
receipts.
$4,000 is included in the budget for promotion in order to
continue to advertise the course. A portion of this amount
may be later recommended for the acquisition of a large sign
in the northern part of the City to alert motorists on the
freeway to the golf course. Further details on this item
will be presented after more information from various sign
companies is received.
The Golf Course, ivIlaintenance budget represents a sincere
effort to continue to maintain the course in fine shape and
also make improvements as and when we can with our own labor
force. The course is presently being maintained by the
Superintendent and two other monthly salaried employees with
the rest of the employees being on an hourly basis. The
total Golf Course T °faintenance salaries budget for the coming
year is $10,000 more than last year and based on our experi.m
ence fairly well represents the level of expenditure required
to maintain the course in the condition that will be accept-
able to our clientele.
The heat, light and power budget of $33500 is $1,500 QaEt ' " �'� -
than the amount budgeted last year. The vehicle operating
budget of $200 is $2,700 less than last year's but is offset C-� e
by a $2400 increase in our Special Department Equipment^ti��a
Operating Supplies and Maintenance Budget, the expense class
to which will be charged all operating and maintenance costs
for golf course equipment.
The $9,000 budgeted for Special Departmental Supplies repre-
sents the high cost of materials for keeping the golf course
in shape. It includes fertilizers, top dressing material,
chemicals, sprays, gravel, sand for traps, etc.
$4,500 worth of purchases of Coyote Water for the golf course
is anticipated. This amount may be reduced considerably as
and when the Golf Lake Estates subdivision is developed and
the new well and tank constructed on Country Club Drive
since in the improvement plans for the subdivision there
is included a water main which will provide water to the lake
on the back nine holes from this new well.
The over-all capital improvement budget for the golf course
is $5,300 which includes $1,900 for a pick -up truck for the
Superintendent which we intend to purchase through the State
Vehicle Purchasing Program.
The golf course revenues have been estimated at $110,000
which is a $25,000 increase over 1969 -70's budgeted amount
which the City should realize. Play at the gof course has
increased significantly over the past year and it is expected
VII.
The Honorable __ayor 8 Members of the City .ouncil
June 23, 1970
Page 8.
to continue to do so as our clientele increases and the
course matures and becomes more enjoyable to play. Weekend
play has increased substantially to a point where I am
recommending that the weekend and holiday rates be increased
from $4.00 to $4.50 effective July 1, 1970, or as soon as
practical thereafter. The $4.50 rate will be still substanti-
ally less than weekend and holiday rates for other 18 - -hole
golf courses in the area. It is estimated that the 50�
increase in the weekend and holiday rate will bring in
approximately $6,000 to $7,000 additional revenue. It is
also made in an effort to have the golf course become a self -
supporting operation: as soon as possible.
Capital I;nprovements
A recap of the operating capital improvement items is at the
rear of the budget document. Some of the items are of a
recurring nature such as a new police vehicle which will
be a replacement vehicle.
Significant new capital improvement items being requested
are'. photographic equipment for the Police Department -
$1,000; half --ton truck with tool compartments for the Public
Works Department W $2,600; base radio and vehicle radios
for the Public Works Department - $3,000. The radios are
requested because of the increased calls we receive for
public works personnel service when they are out in the field.
They will maximize the mobility of tor. Wiggins and his
ability to supervise department personnel and communicate
with them from different locations and also enable them to
be promptly dispatched on calls for service from citizens.
The capital improvements budget recap includes those items
used in the normal course of the City's operation as well as
debt service on general operation facilities such as the
Public Safety Building, the Benecia Park and Swimming Pool
and the new Community Recreation Center, and lease payments
oil the fire apparatus.
VIII. Streets and Bridges
A separate schedule lists street improvement projects which
it is recommended be financed by the use of State Gas Tax
Funds. The major project, of course, is the extension of
Southwest Boulevard which is presently out to bid and if
all goes well, should be awarded on July 6, 1970. The
$78,000 budgeted for this project is the a�-.lount included in
the assessment district's Engineer's Report as the City's
contribution to the project. The contribution is based on
the estimated cost of the road from Burton Avenue to the
railroad, including the grade crossing.
The $10,000 designated for Project 1969 -1, Snyder Lane
between East Cotati Avenue and the Expressway, is to cover
The Honorable Lyor 8 Members of the City Duncil
June 239 1970
Page 9.
anticipated costs that may not be assessable to any of the
property owners involved in the assessment district because of
the fact that the City is widening the street to its ultimate,
between Southwest Boulevard and Copeland Creek. Not reflected
in the enclosed 'budget is the significant contribution that
is expected to be made to the Snyder Zane project from the
Copeland Creek :Drainage Facility Fund for a portion of the
bridge and/or box culvert that will be required for the
project at Copeland Creek. Hopefully this project will be
out to bid within the next week or so and provided we can
sell the bonds, and get a contract awarded within the next
month or so, it should be completed by the end of 1970.
The $45,000 budgeted for the bridge on Commerce Boulevard at
Hinebaugh Creek represents the commitment that the City has
to construct this facility as and when it is required. The
$45,000 will provide for the first stage of the facility
with additional costs being incurred sometime in the future
when Commerce Boulevard is widened. With the State and
County cooperative project presently underway to extend
Hinebaugh Creek through the freeway, the construction of the
bridge at Commerce Boulevard should be provided in order
to make maximum use of the downstream drainage improvements.
It is also hoped that a program can be worked out with the
landowners in the area for the deepening and widening of
Hinebaugh Creek between the Freeway and the railroad. The
Sonoma County Water Agency has indicated that the railroad
tressel will probably be improved during fiscal year 1970 -71,
more than likely being the summer of 1971. As and when
that is done, it will be advantageous to the City and the golf
course area to plan for the improvement of Hinebaugh Creek
further easterly.
The 530,000 provided for a bridge on Hinebaugh Creek at
Country Club Drive is in recognition of the commitment that
the City made to the property owners of the Golf Lake Estates
area when that area assumed the $1,356 per acre assessment
which provided the City's share of the funds for the sewer
plant expansion project. I am informed that the Country Club
bridge at Hinebaugh Creek will be necessary to accomodate
the storm waters that are going to be diverted easterly of
Country Club Drive into Hinebaugh Creek so as not to flow
into the area of the Golf Lake Estates Subdivision. The
amount of $30,000 represents only the first stage of this
ultimate drainage structure. Country Club Drive is planned
to eventually be an 861 right --of --way width street. The
temporary structure has been discussed with Engineer Hudis
and the Chief Engineer of the Sonoma County Water Agency
and will be designed so that as and when the flow from
Hinebaugh Creek to the east increases, the structure can be
expanded. There is also the possibility that the Country
Club Drive bridge can be financed from the City's per acre
assessment fees which we have accumulated rather than gas
tax funds. A final decision on this, however, should not be
IX.
The Honorable ._syor & Members of the City _ouncil
June 23, 1970
Page 10.
made until we determine what federal assistance we can be
assured of receiving for the water well and tank planned
for construction on Country Club Drive to provide service
to the Golf Lake Estates area.
The $10,000 shown for the Santa Alicia Drive project antici-
pates the improvement of this street north of Alicia Park
and possibly in some area of the Deer Meadow Village develop-
ment in exchange for their property which now abuts the John
Reed School site. The Council will recall that acquisition
of this property has been deemed desirable in order that
the park site and John Reed School grounds will be exposed
along Santa Alicia Drive.
The Streets and Bridges budget schedule also makes note of
the fact that the City Council, on April 1, 1968, indicated
a desire to use Gas Tax Funds for the new entrance road
from Gravenstein Highway to College View Drive although
the project was given no definite time table. I whole-
heartedly support a road which would make a more direct
connection from the Old Redwood Highway and Gravenstein
intersection into College View Drive or Southwest Boulevard.
With the Council's approval I will attempt to work out an
assessment district proceeding wherein the property owners
will make the major contribution to a new entrance road.
I have previously discussed the matter with Norman Spivock
who owns the site of the former College buildings and he
indicated a general reluctance to participate at that time
because he didn't feel that the new road would add any value
to his property. Perhaps, however, he might change his mind.
Since a portion of the road will be in Cotati, that city or
benefiting property owners therein will also have to partici-
pate in the costs of the project. In any event, the project
is worth pursuing to provide better access at the southern
end of our City.
Hodel Citv Commission and Housing Committee
Funds have not been provided in the budget for the operations
of the Model City Commission and the Housing Committee although
it is anticipated that these bodies will probably meet during
the coming, fiscal year. The Model City Commission should
continue to be used as an excellent means for developing
and retaining channels of communications between the City
government structure and Sonoma State College staff, students
and faculty. The Housing Committee can be put to good use
as, when, and if the City Council feels that the City should
take a more active role in promoting different types of
housing in the community.
X. Reserve
The budget does not propose any addition to the General
Reserve Fund which has been established over the last two
The Honorable ._ayor 8 Members of the City - ouncil
June 23, 1970
Page 11.
fiscal years. To date, the fund has a balance of $30,000
which has been accumulated by placing therein of the
cigarette tax revenues received during the last two years.
The revenues from this source for 1970 --71 are being used
to help finance the over -all budget. The $30,000 while not
a large reserve, is almost 50 of the general operations
budget and when taken together with the cash balances in
the water and sewer operating accounts should be a large
enough cash reserve for the City at this point in time.
XI. Summary
As has been customary, a conservative budget policy has been
followed. That is, no effort has been made to unrealisti-
cally inflate either projected revenues or anticipated
expenses. Any significant change in either the projected
revenues or expenditures will have an affect on the City's
over-all financial condition. The City staff continually
tries to encourage the expansion and improvement of City
services by the introduction of more efficient operating
procedures and /or the adoption of novel operating methods.
Innovation and untried methods in attempting to minimize
the expense of our City government is welcomed at all levels
of operations.
Once again the City's financial condition can best be
described as fair. [chile the budget doesn't propose any
increase in the property tax rate the decision on this will
have to be deferred until the 1970 assessed valuation figures
are received from the County of Sonoma. An increase of
assessed valuation of from 8 to 10% is expected. The budget
provides for a $40,000 loan to the General Fund from the
Sewer and Water operating accounts. If the city gets any
break at all in anticipated revenues and can hold the line
on expenditures, the budgeted loan to the General Fund may
be reduced significantly. Good budgeting practices, however,
require that it be shown in order to present a balanced
budget.
It should be kept in mind that for long term projections, the
City growth potential is excellent and as new businesses open
and additional development takes place we should, at some
point in time, realize a proportionately larger share of
the type of development that contributes more to the City's
economic status than it demands in services. With the hoped
for construction of the overpass structure of the freeway
interchange during 1971, commercial development in the central
part of the City might commence and it is to this course of
activity that the City should look as the means of improving
the over- -all financial condition of the City. The fact that
the City, to date, has had good operating and revenue pro-
ducing utility operations and has kept the number of employees
to a minimum has gone a long way in contributing to the
financial condition of the City.
The Honorable i-i-yor & Memebers of the City ,ouncil
June 239 1970
Page 12.
.final point that should be repeated is that the City has
in the past been providing for the future by financing from
general operating funds such things as the acquisition of
the future Civic Center Site, parks, fire fighting apparatus,
as well as debt service on major facilities such as Benecia
Park and Pool and the Public Safety Building. The fact that
such items have been paid for out of each year's operating
budget is a compliment to the community and the attitude of
the City Council.
All things considered, there are very few services or facilities
being requested by the public which the City is not providing.'
The proposed budget anticipates an increased level of service
in three areas that are directly beneficial to the citizenry.
These are in Police Protection where, with the added public
safety officer and full-time dispatchers, the level of service
is increased substantially; the Public Works Department
where the addition of a full-time man will provide for
better maintenance of facilities and streets and parkways
which are visible to the public, and the Recreation budget
which provides for the employment of a full-time director.
During the course of the coming fiscal year we will undoubt-
edly approach the Council with programs not included in the
budget and on which we cannot provide specific details at
this time. Such programs might be provisions for additional
office space mentioned earlier in this memo as well as the
staffing of the waste water treatment and disposal facilities
after the construction project at that location is completed.
In conclusion, I would like to express appreciation to all
the staff members for their productive and forthright attitude
during the budget sessions. I would also like to extend
appreciation and thanks to all the members of the community,
the various commission members, and the volunteer fire and
police auxiliaries who have cooperated with the city staff
during the now concluding fiscal year.
I look forward to discussing the proposed budget in greater
detail with the City Council during work sessions concerning
same and at which additional information for items contained
in the budget will be available.

INTER- OFFICE MEMORANDUM'
TO: The Honorable Mayor and FROM: Peter M.
Members of the City Council City Ma a
ec; Richard B. Maxwell, City Attorney DATE: June 2k, 1
Press Correspondents
Re: 1970 -71 Budget -- Additional Information
The following information is presented in accordance with the
request of the Council at the June 23rd meeting.
1. Salary and Wages
Enclosed is 'a schedule which 'reflects the salary recommendations
included in the Preliminary Budget as compared to the salary
rates presently in force. The proposed cost of living percentage
adjustment is indicated by position. The City Treasurer's
recommended increased compensation is in accordance with a
request received from Treasurer Bob Sheehan and which was
brought to your 'attention several weeks ago.
Also enclosed is a schedule which gives a comparison between
the 196`9 -70 'Budget amounts for Personal Services as compared
to the am,-unts in the 1970Q -71 Preliminary Budget. The recom --
me.nded cost of lus ving adjustment amounts to a 'total of between
$11,200 and $12,500 depending on whether or not the new employees
requested, ay e. °a Public Safety Officer and a Maintenance Man,
are included in the computation.
2. School Tax Rates
a. High school district - George Castleberry` advises that the
high school district is at its maximum authorized general
purpose rate'. He further advises' that there are certain
overrid s (for certain expenses, such as employee health,
i,,rey fare and retirement) that have no limit but which
gen e va-1 y go up or down a few pennies each year.
He further advisee that the district has available a
restricted tax rate for -th and 8th grade junior high
tuition which could go up to 15�- he indicates they are not
using Upis +ax rate and probably won't but it depends on
what the State does with 'respect to school financing.
Mr. Castleberry indicated that the high school rage will
probably go up about 10� overall
b. Elementary school district - Both Superintendent Coleman
and his assistant Jim Davidson are out of the office today
so information not available concerning Cotati School
District tax rage limitations and projection for 1970 -71
I will try and obtain information again Monday, and pass it
on to you at the meeting.
