DOC ID: 2052 © CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO—REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Report/Information From: Jason Simpson M/CC Meeting Date: 10/01/2012 Prepared by: Jason Simpson, Dept: Finance Ward(s): N/A Subject: Receive and File the City of San Bernardino Cash Flow Position Report as of September 26, 2012 Financial Impact: None. Motion: Receive and File Report and Information. Synopsis of Previous Council Action: None. Backaround• CASH POSITION DAY BEFORE FILING BANKRUPTCY [ ) On July 31, 2012, the day before the City declared bankruptcy, the City had approximately $6 �r million in Cash on the City's ledger. This amount is deceptive, however, because it is the net amount of the four categories below,as follows: General Fund $ (18,946,180) Discretionary Funds (3,741,023) Board Assigned/Committed 1,616,815 Restricted 27,077,679 $ 6,007,291 In essence, as of 7/31/12, the General Fund has borrowed $18.9 million from Restricted Funds and Board Assigned/Committed funds to pay for General Fund and Discretionary Fund expenditures. The main reason for this borrowing is the structural deficit that exists in the City, which put quite simply, is that expenditures exceed revenues. Absent immediate actions to reduce the structural deficit, the excess of expenses over revenues are projected to continue each month. CURRENT CASH POSITION-SEPTEMBER 26 2012 On September 26, 2012, the City's overall cash(including restricted funds) was $6,518,274 and the General Fund's negative cash balance was ($21,610,688); representing an increase in cash of $510,983 from July 31, 2012. The increase in cash is primarily due to deferral of currently due obligations totaling ($20,395,694) including payments due to bond holders, CalPERS, trade © payables, prior litigation costs, and employee leave bank cashouts. As shown on Exhibit A, the Updated:9/27/2012 by Georgeann"Gigi"Hanna I Packet Pg. 76 2052 OCity's net cash deficit is a negative($13,877,420)(See Exhibit A). The deferral of expenses has been necessary to continue to meet payroll obligations and other critical obligations necessary to provide basic level services. As estimated by staff in July, this would not have been possible without the deferral of the expenses listed above. The City would have run out of cash at the September 15`"payroll. As implemented, the deferral of expenses is intended to be short-term in nature (i.e., through September). In order to continue to provide essential services, the City must complete implementation of the restructuring approved in the Pre-Pendency Plan and continue with certain deferrals until the next phase of the Pendency Plan can be developed and approved by the Mayor and Common Council. Continued reductions in expenses, including those approved in the Pre-Pendency Plan, are necessary to ensure the City can continue to provide services, pay its obligations for services and materials necessary for staff to perform assigned tasks, pay deferred obligations, balance the budget, and to build operating capital and reserves.

LO 0 N CITYWIDE FUND STRUCTURE/CATEGORIES m N Funds, which are used to account for specific activities, fall into one of four categories: Y m a A. The General Fund. This fund accounts for the majority of activity of the City's general operations m like Police, Fire, Public Works, and other services. In any City Government, there is only one General o LL Fund. r w M U B. Discretionary Funds represent funds that are Special Revenue Funds or Internal Service Funds that c do not have legal or Board restrictions. They are simply utilized to track and also spread costs to the overall organization. c C. Board Assigned/Committed Funds represent funds that the Board has made a formal or informal 'o action to assign or commit to specific purposes. c) c 0 E E D. Restricted Funds are funds restricted by external entities such as grantors, assessment districts, U 0 Measure I sales tax proceeds, and other legal restrictions such as Proposition 218 restrictions. 0 E d 2 M z E w c m F m N N N r O N r C d E r U N Q 21i' ., _ : Pa&A P g 79 0 0 CL 3 0 LL L w m U U N EXHIBIT A N y Y m a c A 0 0 LL L N A © U c a m a m v c 0 0 U c 0 E E 0 U O O E d f m z E Yl G N H O N 0) O N r O N C d O L U R a Packet Pg.80 7.E.a CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO,CALIFORNIA SELECTED ANALYSIS OF CITY CASH(unaudited) c H W 0 CASH PER CITY CALCUATION OF BOOKS* CASH SHORTAGE 0 Cash per City's books as of 912612012 ; General Fund $ (21,610,688) u.
