RESOLUTION NO.20-085
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO
ADOPTING A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGET FOR
FISCAL YEAR 2020-21 BY RATIFYING THE ADEQUACY OF ESTIMATED
REVENUES AND FUND BALANCES IN EACH FUND TO COVER
APPROPRIATED MONIES, APPROPRIATING MONIES THEREFROM FOR
SPECIFIED ACTIVITIES AND ACCOUNTS, AND SETTING FORTH
CONDITIONS OF ADMINISTERING SAID BUDGET
WHEREAS, the orderly administration of municipal government is dependent on
the establishment of a sound fiscal policy of maintaining a proper ratio of expenditures
within anticipated revenues and available monies; and
WHEREAS, the extent of any project or program and the degree of its
accomplishment, as well as the efficiency of performing assigned duties and
responsibilities, is likewise dependent on the monies made available for that purpose;
and
WHEREAS, the City has independently studied the proposed Capital
Improvements Program (CIP) and has determined that the CIP is exempt from
environmental review pursuant to the exemption in 14 Cal. Code Regs. §15601(b)(3) in
that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this action will have a
significant effect on the environment because approval of the CIP is a budgeting action,
and does not involve approval of any specific project that may have a significant effect
on the environment;
WHEREAS, the City Council, using its independent judgment, before taking
action on this Resolution, determines that the CIP is exempt from CEQA as stated above;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby adopt
the following sections as a part of its fiscal policy:
Section 1: The estimates of available fund balances and anticipated resources
to be received in each of the several funds during Fiscal Year 2020-21, as submitted by the
City Manager in the proposed budget and amended during the budget study sessions,
are sufficient to cover appropriations.
Section 2. The Director of Administrative Services shall prepare and submit to
City Council quarterly a revised estimate of Capital Improvement projects.

jurisdictions to calculate their appropriation limits in complying with Article XIII B of the
State Constitution; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Proposition 111, passed by the voters of California on
June 5, 1990, said limits are determined by an adjustment formula based upon change in

WHEREAS, In computing the 2020-21 limit based upon the adjustment factors
provided pursuant to Proposition 111, the City Council has elected to use the county
population percentage change along with the California per capita income change, but
the Council expressly reserves the right to use the non-residential assessed valuation
percentage change when the figure is available.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Cupertino hereby approves a 2020-21 fiscal appropriation limit of $109,062,934, based on
Proposition 111 guidelines allowing for use of the county population percentage change

CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE

To the Residents of Cupertino, Honorable Mayor, and Members of the City Council:
As the City of Cupertino enters a time of economic uncertainty, I am pleased to present
the City Council with a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2020/2021. Forecasting anything,
be it the economy or the weather, is not an exact science. There are many variables and a
lot that we cannot see. But what we can do, and what we are doing, is preparing for the
worst while taking steps to ensure the continual financial stability of our organization.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the ensuing lockdowns, has negatively affected the
economies of all countries and likely caused a worldwide recession. The City, for
purposes of our budget forecast, is anticipating at least a two-year recession.
The Fiscal Year 2020/2021 Adopted Budget presents a General Fund with revenues of
$79.1 million and expenditures of $80.5 million. The City's top three revenue sources
have been property, sales, and transient occupancy taxes. While this will continue to be
true, the City will not see the same level of revenue as in recent years. Sales tax is
anticipated to experience an approximately 20% decline, while transient occupancy tax
is expected to drop by 25%. The City also expects a decline in fee revenues, mostly
attributed to Parks & Recreation Departments programs being ceased, but also due to
economic strains on the local, state, and national levels.
With declining revenues for the next several years, difficult but necessary decisions must
be made to bring expenditures into line. The City is implementing several budget
balancing strategies to the General Fund forecast as noted below:
• Phasing in an increase of vacant staff positions from five (5) to twenty (20) within
a three-year period, which will result in up to $3.2 million in annual savings.
• Reducing contingencies by 50%, which is expected to save approximately
$850,000.
• Reducing materials by 10%, which is expected to save approximately $670,000 in
Fiscal Year 2020/2021.
• Reducing contract services by $1 million.
• Reducing special projects by $500,000.
15
Table of Contents
While we expect these actions to be enough in the short-term, staff will continue to
monitor the situation and adjust when necessary. Staff fully intends on keeping the City
Council and community informed with regular updates. Having the latest information
and up-to-date data will allow for informed decision making.
It is said that even the darkest cloud has a silver lining. The COVID-19 pandemic has
shone a bright light on quite a few positive things going on in Cupertino. I would like to
highlight them for the City Council and community below:
Long -Term Financial Planning
The foresight of the City Council and staff in previous years to focus on ensuring
healthy reserves is paying off in full. While we will focus on reducing expenditures to
offset declining revenues, we do have healthy reserves that could be used to mitigate
any unforeseen shortfalls.
The City's Economic Uncertainty Reserve remains intact, with $19 million, and may be
used to mitigate potential shortfalls in future fiscal years. The City's Section 115 Pension
Trust ($12 million) also could be used to mitigate potential increases to Ca1PERS' annual
required contribution rate or further reductions in the discount rate as set by Ca1PERS.
The City's unassigned fund balance remains healthy and will be able to assist in
addressing funding gaps.
Virtual Activities, Meetings, and Services
The future is virtual. That we already knew. But the COVID-19 pandemic provided an
impetus to move some of our most significant activities and services online —most likely
permanently.
The City's Innovation Technology Department (IT) had the vision years ago to slowly
migrate full-time employees to laptop computers. This allowed staff to be more mobile.
Coupled with IT's decision to move to a VoIP phone system, which allows staff to
answer their work lines from a computer, the transition from working in the office to
working at home was practically seamless for many employees. With the addition of
Zoom virtual conferencing and Microsoft Teams, an online collaboration tool, staff was
able to keep internal meetings and communication moving forward. It also allowed the
City to quickly offer its services and activities online once the first Shelter -in -Place Order
was given in March 2020.
The City began utilizing standard video conferencing software to provide virtual
inspections for essential activities. In addition, the Geographic Information System (GIS)
Division and the Building Division worked to develop a longer -term solution that
allows applicants to submit building inspection videos in lieu of a physical inspection.
Applicants upload their submission through an online form, the videos are stored into a
que, and inspectors review the video remotely. While the form was developed in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Building Division expects this new video
16

inspection review process to remain a part of Cupertino's inspection process for limited
scopes of work.
The Parks & Recreation Department also began utilizing teleconferencing software in
April 2020 to offer residents free virtual fitness classes. These classes quickly gained in
popularity, going from about 10 attendees in the first week about 100 after just a few
class offerings. Residents have already requested that the City continue some form of
virtual classes once the Shelter -in -Place Order is lifted and in -person classes begin.
Embracing Change and Innovation
Change is difficult for everyone. It can be uncomfortable and stressful. That is why I
have been so impressed with City staff, which has quickly and eagerly embraced change
and innovation. Along with the move to new equipment and software, the reason the
City's was able to continue its services with little interruption was because of our
employees. Work is being completed and internal virtual meetings have been utilized to
a great extent. Our staff has been a critical link to our City's success. It gives me
confidence that our employees will readily accept more changes and continue to
improve our programs and services. The City Council and residents should be
heartened to know that Cupertino is in good hands.
In conclusion, the City —along with every other municipality —is heading into much
uncertainty. While there is a lot we do not know, the picture will become clearer as we
move forward and receive more information. Fortunately, the City stands on a solid
financial foundation and decisions have already been made, and will continue to be
made, to ensure that stays true into the foreseeable future.
Respectfully Submitted,
Z4 L:,q,
Deborah L. Feng
City Manager

Notable Accomplishments and New Initiatives
NOTABLE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 2019-20
Reducing Youth Access to Tobacco
In February, the City approved a tobacco ordinance to reduce youth access to tobacco. Most
notably the ordinance prohibits the sale of vaping products and flavored tobacco. This effort
was funded through a $48,608 grant the City was awarded from the Santa Clara County Public
Health Department. Next year the City will pursue options to reduce exposure to secondhand
smoke through another grant received from the County.
Reach Code: The City of Cupertino Acts on Fossil Fuels in New Buildings
Cupertino's Climate Action Plan outlines a path towards creating a healthy, livable, and vibrant
place for its current and future residents to live, learn, work, and play. It was found that fossil
fuels used in buildings and cars presents the biggest remaining challenge to meeting the 2030
greenhouse gas emissions targets. The City Council took steps to enhance the safety and cost
savings of the City's buildings by adopting a local reach code that requires most new buildings
to utilize clean electricity for uses like water heating and cooking. Eliminating the natural gas
line for new developments is expected to save money for both consumers and contractors in
most cases. With this step Cupertino joins the vanguard of 30 other California cities, and several
across the nation, in starting a long-term reduction in fossil fuel use in the
community. Outreach was conducted by City staff and regional partners Silicon Valley Clean
Energy. Homeowners, students, contractors, real estate professionals, and business owners in
Cupertino provided feedback on what an all -electric reach code would mean for them.
Greenhouse Gas Inventory Shows Cupertino Meeting 2020 Emissions Targets
The City of Cupertino Climate Action Plan goal is to reduce GHG emissions by 15% by 2020,
compared to 2010 GHG levels. Since 2010, Cupertino has experienced an estimated 6% increase
in population, 18% increase in jobs, and a 10% increase in service population. However, due to
the City's climate actions, there is an overall 24% decrease in community GHG emissions
during that period of economic growth. The path forward to the 2030 target remains ambitious,
with transportation and natural gas used in buildings becoming the largest remaining
categories of greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants, and the State of California
considering plans for zero emissions by 2045.

Employee Commute Program Helps Employees Get to Work and Reduce Climate Impacts
Staff created a pilot program to help City employees get to work using alternatives to driving
alone. The pilot program resulted in 70 employees signing up to reduce their solo car trips.
Over the course of the pilot program, which ran from August 2019 to March 2020, employees
took 2,541 "alternative trips" to work which includes transit, carpooling, biking, or taking the
VIA shuttle to work. This resulted in reduced parking impacts at City Hall, paycheck incentives
paid directly to staff, and an estimated 12 million pounds of carbon emissions avoided. The
program's early success led to a successful grant award for the City to continue with a Phase II
employee commute pilot, which is being designed and rolled out by staff.
Master Plan Adoption
This year, the Parks and Recreation System Master Plan was completed and adopted, following
an extensive public input process. A final draft Master Plan as well as the associated
environmental clearance documents were circulated for public review. The documents were
presented to the Planning Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, and Environmental
Review Committee. On February 18, 2020, the City Council adopted the environmental
clearance documents and adopted the Parks and Recreation System Master Plan.
Program Overview and Marketing Analysis Completed
The City contracted with the Learning Resource Network (LERN) to provide a two day
program review that would analyze recreation program offerings in addition to: provide
benchmark tracking to measure department performance, provide recommendations and key
actions to implement to reduce costs and boost revenue and registration, and describe specific
steps to improve marketing strategies and overall department operations. Recommendations
on best practices and trends in the delivery of recreation services were presented to the Parks
and Recreation Commission in March 2020.
Volunteers, Wellness, and Collaboration
The Senior Center strives to create a culture of collaboration and engages the community at all
levels —this can be noted in the diverse program offerings at the facility. The Cupertino Senior
Center celebrated the commitment of its 230 volunteers who have devoted 24,000 hours to
serving the community through various volunteer opportunities at the Senior Center. The 50+
Scene newsletter underwent an expansive content and aesthetic overhaul in order to adhere to
the Office of Communication's branding guidelines, as well as ensure the publication is more
readable and user-friendly. The Smart Living and Wellness Health Fair provided valuable
information and services to the 50+ community on how best to maintain a healthy and
independent lifestyle, coordinated by the City's own Case Management team. The yearly
Hidden Treasures event brought in the most sales ever at $15,000, which helps support the case
management program and the Stay Active Fund to keep Cupertino seniors stay active and
19

engaged. These innovative services for the 50+ population continue to respond to the City's
changing community needs.
Appointment of Cupertino's Sixth Poet Laureate
On February 18, 2020 Cupertino's City Council approved the Library Commission's
recommendation of Jing Jing Yang for the appointment of the new Cupertino Poet Laureate. A
celebration event was held on February 27th at Quinlan Community Center with nearly 100
attendees to thank the outgoing Poet Laureate, Kaecey McCormick for her contributions to the
Poet Laureate program and to welcome Jing Jing Yang as the new Poet Laureate. The event also
featured the revealing of Kaecey's final project as Poet Laureate, "Celebrate Creativity: A
Cupertino Community Anthology", with 350 pages featuring creative writing from over 80
contributors from the Cupertino community. A copy of the Anthology will be available at the
Cupertino Library.
Summer Events
The Summer Events program ran from June 2019 to September 2019 and offered activities at 12
different sites. The program included themed activities, 11 Movies, 11 Concerts, 10 Free Fitness
in the Park classes (Zumba and Yoga), 5 Art in the Park Parent/Child classes. It also included
Shakespeare in the Park, Cupertino's first Night Market, Game Night, Astronomy Night,
Hawaiian Luau, Chess, Bollywood Night and Cupertino Campout with 230 campers.
Attendance was slightly under 12,000. Other offered events highlighted celebrity guests, non-
profits, and local partnerships.
Teen Offerings
Teen programs were enhanced to address the teen stress levels in Cupertino through
innovative, collaborative and educational approaches while addressing community livability
amongst the teens. The Bobatino event had its second successful year with over 600 teens
enjoying various activities while drinking free milk tea provided by the City. Techie Teens
began in August of 2019. The primary goal of Cupertino's Techie Teens volunteer program at
the Senior Center is to help teens give back to the community by engaging the 50+ community
to assist in developing their technological skills. The volunteers can expect to gain the following
experiences: leadership roles, public speaking opportunities, interpersonal communication, and
much more. The Cupertino Cafe run by the Youth Activity Board started in May 2019 but
expanded in winter 2020 with more dates and partnerships with the library.

Corridor Stroll
On Friday, August 2, the Parks & Recreation Department held the first annual Corridor Stroll
on the Stevens Creek Corridor. Participants strolling between McClellan Ranch Preserve and
Blackberry Farm enjoyed acoustic music, a magician, wine tasting, food trucks, crafts, ranger
activities, reptile and insect presentations and blacksmith demonstrations.
Signing Santa
On February 27, the Parks and Recreation Department received a programming award from the
California Parks and Recreation Society, for their innovative Signing Santa event. This event
was the first of its kind in the Bay Area and provided an opportunity for deaf and hard of
hearing children to talk to Santa and his elves using American Sign Language. More than 70
people attended the event that included crafts, cookies, hot cocoa, and quality time with Santa.
Blacksmith Shop at McClellan Ranch
In the Fall of 2019, the restored Baer Blacksmith Shop at McClellan Ranch Preserve became fully
operational. Free drop -in hours are offered one Sunday a month, and volunteers are learning
blacksmithing techniques. Demonstrations can also be scheduled for schools and groups. The
blacksmith shop does not operate if Spare -the -Air or Red Flag warnings have been issued.
Golf Course Improvements
In the Spring of 2020, much needed improvements were made to the tee boxes on holes #1 and
#9. Both tee boxes were leveled and had new turf installed. In addition to these tees, the green
on hole #6 was made level and enlarged.
McClellan Ranch Preserve Meadow Habitat Restoration
The City's partnership with Grassroots Ecology continues to yield positive results for the
restoration of the meadow at McClellan Ranch Preserve. In FY 19-20, over 350 volunteers
planted over 300 native plants, removed invasive plants, and monitored the water quality in
this open space.
Athletic Fields Use Study
In FY19-20, the Parks and Recreation Department began a field use study to update the current
Field Use Policy. The study encompasses review of the user group categories, the fees and how
the City charges users, times, days for use, and rest periods for the fields. The new policy is
expected to be adopted by the Fall of 2020 and implemented in the Spring season of 2021.

Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance
The Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance (ADU) was adopted by City Council after the its
second reading on March 3, 2020. This was in a response to the State adopting six (6) separate
Assembly and Senate Bills that seek to streamline and encourage the development of ADUs in
an effort to relieve the State's housing crisis. Such revisions allow a shorter, more affordable
review process which will also further flexibility on certain development standards.
De Anza Hotel Project Approval
The De Anza Hotel Project was part of a General Plan Amendment proposal to develop a 155
room, seven story boutique hotel on the site currently occupied by Goodyear Tires at 10931 N
De Anza Blvd. The developer, John Vidovich of De Anza Properties, has agreed to a
Development Agreement that would contribute a one-time payment $500,000 to the City to
fund various projects, reduced price shuttle service for City residents to utilize for Airport
transportation as well as connections to job centers, free use of hotel facilities for the City and
local schools, and public access to a roof top bar & restaurant.
California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) SB 2 Planning Grants
Program
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) announced that
the City of Cupertino was awarded $310,000 in grant funds under the HCD's SB 2 Planning
Grants Program. The City will use the funds to improve the Permit Center to offer community
access to government services utilizing advancing technologies. As part of the Permit Center
improvements, staff is redesigning the customer experience through projects ranging from
physical on -site enhancements, availability of online resources and services, permit software
and programs, and updates to distributional handouts on development regulations. The SB2
Planning Grants funds will be used specifically to offset the digital program improvements and
online access solutions.
Cupertino Village Hotel Project Approval
The Cupertino Village Hotel Project was part of a General Plan Amendment proposal to
develop a 185 room, 5-story hotel with event meeting rooms, restaurant, and rooftop bar. The
developer, Kimco Realty, agreed to a Developer Agreement that would contribute $1.85 million
($10,000 per room) towards Community Amenity Funding, participation in a Transportation
Management Association, shuttle service access, meeting room availability for official City
business, reduced rates for people visiting Cupertino for official City business, and internship
opportunities. When constructed, the project is anticipated to have a net fiscal impact of $1.78
million on the City's General Fund.

Homeless Encampments
The Code Enforcement Office is currently working on creating a Standard Operating Procedure
and contract to have public camping sites removed from the Public Right -of Way and public
property. The City of Cupertino has seen a growth of illegal camping sites along Wolfe Road
and 280. The goal of this project is the removal of unlawful encampments and the mitigation of
health, safety and access issues while respecting the rights of the occupants and informing them
of alternative resources within the community.
Permit Tracking and Electronic Plan Review System
Cupertino's initiative to replace its obsolete permit tracking system was realized on July 22,
2019, with the implementation of Accela and the successful integration to the electronic plan
review system, ProjectDox. Cupertino's new system gives staff better tracking and management
of permitting processes with a centralized database and GIS centric controls which allows
information to be shared across Departments for improved communication.
Plan Review, Permit and Inspection Services: Smooth transition after Shelter -In -Place order
The Development Review process which includes Building, Planning, Public Works, Fire,
Sanitary District, and Code Enforcement to review plans, issue permits and provide observation
inspections successfully transitioned crucial City Service functions as a telecommuting
operation on day one of the Shelter -in -Place order due to COVID-19. All services are
electronically processed remotely with technology that each Department worked tirelessly over
the past four years to implement. While other jurisdictions had no choice but to shut down
their Departments, Cupertino was able to seamlessly continue operations remotely with
minimal impacts.
Reach Codes
In January 2020, the City Council considered and adopted a local addition to the building codes
in Cupertino that will lower greenhouse gas impacts from newly constructed buildings, known
as the all -electric building reach code. Staff is pleased to report that the Cupertino reach code
has been heard at a public meeting of the California Energy Commission on April 8, 2020. CEC
staff found that the Cupertino reach code met all requirements in order to be adopted.
CEC staff issued a resolution stating that, "CEC applauds the City of Cupertino for seeking to
achieve additional energy demand reductions, energy savings, and other benefits exceeding
those of the 2019 Energy Code."

Real Estate Sign Pickups
The Code Enforcement Office conducted the removal and storage of illegally placed real estate
signs from the Public Right -of -Way. The project involved a code enforcement officer patrolling
on the weekends for unlawfully placed real estate signs and promptly removing them for
storage at the Cupertino Service Center. The investigating officer would notify the offending
agent(s) and advise them of the number of sign(s) removed including instructions on how to
retrieve the signs with a fee. No Administrative Citations were issued for this project.
Recruitments and Onboarding Software Implementation
Cupertino prides itself in the high level of services provided to the community, always striving
to hire the best employees. Human Resources conducted 17 full-time recruitments resulting in
21 new hires or promotions. Additionally, phase two of NeoGov, an online system for
onboarding, recruitment and applicant tracking, was implemented to streamline the new hire
and onboarding process for all departments. Implementing the Onboarding module was
comprised of staff training, converting all new hire payroll, policies, and benefit information
into digital format, creating a Welcome Portal page, uploading content for new hires, and
testing. The new onboarding module has been a great success with new hires. Human
Resources has been able to complete new hire onboarding with telework in place.
COVID-19 Leaves Implementation
The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) is an emergency law passed by Congress
and signed by the President on March 18, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. The law
required the City of Cupertino to provide employees with Emergency Paid Sick Leave (EPSL),
and/or Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion (EFMLEA), for reasons related to
COVID-19. Human Resources quickly implemented these new paid leaves effective April 1,
2020. Staff outreach and training included webinars, development of webpage, infographics and
individual meetings with all employees as needed.
Citywide Employee Training - BEST
"BEST" (Building Employee Skills through Training) program focused on professional
development as part of Cupertino's succession planning and employee retention initiatives.
Human Resources offered 7-8 workshops each quarter on subjects such as Public Speaking and
Time Management. Human Resources also launched popular quarterly Employee Orientations
and Refreshers for the departments to share the latest Citywide policies and programs available
to employees.

Employee Engagement Initiative
Human Resources implemented its first citywide Employee Engagement Initiative to support
each other and work together towards the City's mission to provide exceptional service,
encourage all members of the community to take responsibility for one another, and support the
values of education, innovation, and collaboration. City employees were assigned to a Work
Group, participated in a citywide Employee Engagement survey, and created Action Plan
Teams to brainstorm solutions for any issues identified in the survey. Employee Engagement is
a mutual commitment between the organization and the employee, and this initiative was a
successful first step towards the goal of having engaged employees who feel valued, are
listened to, and are enthused about their work.
Social Media Takeover and Community Budget Workshop
Per City Council direction, the City hosted its first Community Budget Workshop on April 18,
2019. To promote the workshop and make the City's budget fun and relatable to our residents,
Administrative Services staff created a social media campaign #BudgetBites. With the assistance
of the City Manager's Office of Communications, staff completed a social media takeover of the
City's Facebook and Instagram accounts. Due to the overwhelming success of the social media
campaign and the community budget workshop, Administrative Services staff applied for a
California Association of Public Information Officials (CAPIO) Excellence in Public Information
and Communications (EPIC) Award in the category of Community Relations/Participation.
There were a record -breaking 275 entries for the 2020 CAPIO EPIC Awards. Out of four finalists
in the City's category, the City of Cupertino won first place. City staff would like to thank the
City Council for their direction and support in bringing this event to Cupertino residents. City
staff would also like to thank the City's Teen Commission, Youth Activity Board (YAB),
residents and various other City staff for helping make this campaign and workshop a success.
Congratulations all around.
Investment Management
Through a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) process, the Finance Division engaged Chandler
Asset Management for investment management services in FY 2018-19. Managing the City's
investment portfolio with three key principles in mind: safety to ensure the preservation of
capital in the overall portfolio, provide sufficient liquidity for cash needs and a market rate of
return consistent with the investment program. Since inception in January 2019, the City's
portfolio has yielded a total rate of return of 4.96%, significantly higher than U.S. Treasury and
Local Agency Investment Fund rates during that time period. As a result, the City's investment
portfolio is well -positioned to move forward as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve.
Internal Audit Function
Through a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) process, the Finance Division engaged Moss
Adams LLP for internal audit services in FY 2019-20. This function will be assisting the City in
25
Table of Contents
accomplishing its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and
improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes. While the
timing of the onboarding and initial risk assessment have been delayed due to COVID-19, the
City is eager to resume its internal audit function.
Innovation Technology Strategic Plan
The Innovation Technology Department concluded the final phase of a three-year strategic plan,
published in October 2017. The plan revolved around the implementation/execution of 54
technical infrastructure or enterprise application projects. As of July 2020, all 54 projects are

Innovation Technology Data Visualization and Analytics
Data visualization is the presentation of data in a pictorial or graphical format providing tools
to better understand the data and/or identify patterns. Cupertino prides itself on making
transparent data -driven decisions - this is one more tool to assist in that process. The following
dashboards and storymaps were added this year.
• Capital Improvement Plan Storymap. Define project, status and location of CIP
projects.
• 311 Dashboard. Provides graphical representation of 311 (work request) tickets.
How many, status, location and time to respond.
• Pavement Condition Index Storymap. Provides Citywide view of the PCI value for
City streets.
• Bike/Ped Storymap - Define project, status and location of bike and pedestrian
projects throughout the City.
• Civic Central - View permits geographically by street, neighborhood, or the entire
City. Residents can be notified of new permits if desired.
Innovation Technology Response to COVID-19
Business Continuity (BC) is a major and necessary goal for all organizations. The ability to
continue business operation during and after a natural or person -made disruption is a true test
of an organization's BC. COVID-19 provided such a test - and IT's response was exemplary.
Within a day of the Shelter -in -Place order, 95% of all computer -based staff were able to
telework as if they were in the office. Staff had the equipment (laptop & softphone),
applications, collaboration tools, and necessary cybersecurity measures to seamlessly & securely
continue their daily work. Cupertino lead the way in providing a secure, yet easy to use
teleconferencing solution for Council, Commission and Committee meetings. Additionally, IT
27

NEW INITIATIVES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020-21
Blackberry Farm Golf Course
Determine short-term and long-term improvements to the golf course and amenities. This
project is continued from FY2019-20 and will be completed by the Spring of 2021.
Dog Off Leash Areas
Identify additional areas suitable for permitting dogs to be off leash and establish one such area,
if the current trial period is successful. The Parks and Recreation Commission will evaluate the
DOLA at Jollyman Park after the trial period concludes in July 2020 before considering
additional sites in the community. This project is continued from FY2019-20 and will be
completed by the Spring of 2021.
Pilot — Sensor Technology based on IOT (Internet of Things)
Six projects fall under this classification: Adaptive traffic signaling, multi -modal traffic count,
noise measurement, pollution monitoring, and water scheduling. All projects are part of the
City Council Work Program. The goal is to extend the City's network and database structure
to include IOT based sensors to determine the cost/benefit and practicality of utilizing this
technology to provide enhanced service and data that will drive future business decisions.
ESRI IOT for Analytics is a cloud -based solution that will be implemented for the City to ingest,
visualize, and analyze spatial big data real-time to gain insights that allow for analysis and data
driven action. This application will allow the City to categorize and make sense of the data
generated from the above mentioned IOT sensors.
ProjectDox Expansion and Upgrade
ProjectDox is an on -premise application that provides for electronic plan submission and
review. ProjectDox is integrated with the City's land management system, Accela. These two
applications have brought significant improvements (for both staff and customers) in the way
permits are processed by the Building Division. The goal of this request is to extend these
improvements to the Planning Division and Public Works Engineering. Additionally,
ProjectDox will be migrated to a cloud -based application allowing for enhanced business
continuity and disaster recovery.

AI Cybersecurity Tools
This past year has seen multiple municipalities fall victim to Ransomware attacks. The
remediation of these attacks has cost millions of dollars on top of the extended down time for
crucial City services. This project will add artificial intelligence (AI) to the City's cybersecurity
defenses. While Al will not stop an attack — it can quickly isolate the impacted files and
mitigate the spread of Ransomware. As hackers continue to improve their attack profile — so
must Cupertino improve its defenses.
General Plan Authorization Process
Evaluate the existing City Council authorization process for General Plan Amendment projects.
Residential and Mixed -use Residential Design Standards
Create objective design standards for residential and mixed -use residential projects, including
ensuring adequate buffers from neighboring low -density residential development.
Establish Preapproved ADU Plans
Establish procedures and policies on streamlining the ADU review process.
Affordable Housing Strategies
Explore the development of strategies that provides a variety of products across the
affordability levels including updates to the City's density bonus ordinance, housing for the
developmentally disabled, as well as those with moderate, low, very low, and extremely low
income.
Engage with Philanthropic Organizations to find a way to build moderate -income and ELI
housing units for Developmentally Disabled and Engage with Habitat for Humanity (or other
nonprofit) to build ownership housing: 1) Identify ways to build ELI housing units for
developmentally disabled. 2) Look at possibility of building 6-8 affordable ownership
townhomes.
Traffic Congestion Map and Identify Solutions
Identify traffic congestion areas in a heat map. Identify, implement and measure effectiveness of
data driven solutions to improve traffic flow in most congested areas.
Single -Use Plastics Ordinance
Single -use plastics, especially those used as foodware (plastic utensils, food packaging, straws,
coffee stirrers, lids for coffee cups, spill -prevention plugs to go into those lids, etc.) are not
recyclable and create significant amounts of waste that end up in landfills and as littered items
that reach and harm the marine environment. Jurisdictions in the Bay Area are beginning to
31
Table of Contents
consider and implement ordinances that aim to reduce single -use foodware where possible.
This aligns with Cupertino's Zero Waste Policy (adopted in December 2017) which specifies a
goal to "Reduce the proliferation of unnecessary plastic reusable food service ware and
packaging in daily commerce, to the extent practicable." Environmental Programs staff
participate on County and wider Bay Area work groups developing model ordinance language
which includes enabling re -usable foodware business models that allow for use, sterilization,
and re -use of to -go foodware.
Climate Action and Adaptation Plan updates
The Cupertino Climate Action Plan was created nearly ten years ago and has guided the City to
a successful reduction of carbon emissions, even while the City has experienced stellar
economic growth. Since adopting the CAP, the State of California has evolved the guidelines to
address not only carbon emissions, but also adaptation to changing climate risks like wildfires
and droughts. The Sustainability Commission and City Staff are planning an update of the CAP
to align with new science -based targets for carbon emissions and resilient infrastructure. This
budget includes funding to support this update to the Plan. An update to the CAP would
include public outreach activities and technical analysis of the best options to support
Cupertino's resilient and climate -friendly growth. The Earth Day volunteer network and all
interested residents are encouraged to begin conversations about what Cupertino's
sustainability strategy should be for the next 10 years.
Reduce Secondhand Smoke Exposure
Revise and develop policies to reduce exposure to secondhand smoke. Potential options include
smoke -free multi -unit housing, smoke -free service areas, and smoke -free public events.

Table of Contents
Adopted Budget Overview
The Adopted Budget reflects a total City budget of $110.6 million, a decrease of $39.9 million or
26.5% when compared to the FY 2020 Adopted Budget. The City's General Fund is Adopted at
$80.5 million, representing a $0.4 million, or 0.5%, increase over the FY 2020 Adopted Budget.
The General Fund is funded through the use of General Fund revenue of $79.1 million, $1.5
million of unassigned fund balance, and is projected to end FY 2021 with approximately $16.0
million in unassigned fund balance. Once the anticipated vacancy savings of $800,000 is taken
into consideration, the General Fund is estimated to end FY 2021 with approximately $16.8
million in unassigned fund balance. That ending balance may be transferred to the Capital
Reserve per the Reserve and One Time Use Policy as part of the City's FY 2021 Mid -Year
Financial Report The transfer is not reflected in the Adopted Budget.

A total of 203.75 positions are authorized in FY 2020-21. Prior to COVID-19, the City was
anticipating bringing a number of new position requests to City Council over a three-year
period; however, given the level of fiscal uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the City has
removed all position requests in FY 2020-21. As the COVID-19 situation evolves, City staff will
bring forward requests for City Council approval as more information becomes available for
purposes of making informed decisions.

FY 2020-21 Benefitted Positions 203.75
In the past, staff recommended adding positions only on a limited term basis unless staff was
confident that the needed level of service would be permanent, or ongoing revenues could
support the position long term, or staff could not recruit and/or retain the staff resource on a
limited term basis. The City currently has five (5) limited -term positions and staff are requesting
that the Senior Management Analyst in the Administrative Services Department be converted to
a permanent basis.
Changes to the Budget and Policies
City staff performed a zero -base budget for the FY 2020 budget document in which all expenses
were justified and every function within the City was analyzed for its needs and costs. The City
had planned to convert to a biennial budget process; however, given the timing and constraints
of COVID-19, the City will be deferring the conversion until next fiscal year. Below are a few
highlights from the budget and process:
Revised Fees and Cost Allocation Plan (CAP)
While the Cost Allocation Plan remained relatively consistent over the previous fiscal year, a
change in methodology was implemented in the FY 2020-21 model. Costs attributable to
grounds and facilities, specifically and only related to the City's Civic Center, are being charged
out for more equitable and reasonable cost sharing among service providers in the City.
Additionally, City Council approved the fee schedules effective for FY 2020-21 on April 21,
2020. Due to impacts related to COVID-19, and the City's intent to provide financial relief
during this time of great uncertainty, the increases to the City's fees were delayed and will not
become effective until October 1, 2020. The increases to the various fee schedules are estimated
to result in increased revenues of approximately $900,000 over the previous fiscal year;
however, the timing of services to be provided and revenues to be collected may be impacted
by COVID-19 throughout fiscal year 2020-21.
35
Table of Contents
Investment Policy
The City Council annually updates and adopts a City Investment Policy that is in compliance
with State statutes on allowable investments. By policy, the Audit Committee reviews the policy
and acts as an oversight committee on investments. The policy directs that an external auditor
perform agreed -upon procedures to review City compliance with the policy. The full policy will
be available on the City website as part of the May 19, 2020 City Council agenda packet.
GANN Appropriations Limit
The City's appropriations limit for FY 2020-21 is $109,062,934, $4,309,354, or 4.1% higher than
the FY 2019-20 limit of $104,753,580. If a city exceeds the legal limit, excess tax revenue must be
returned to the State or citizens through a process of refunds, rebates, or other means that may
be determined at that time. For FY 2020-21, the City's estimated appropriations of proceeds
from taxes, less statutory exclusions, do not appear to exceed the limit and are not expected to
present a constraint on current or future budget deliberations.
Community Funding Policy
The first Community Funding policy was adopted by City Council in FY 2012-13, and the most
recent policy was adopted as part of the FY 2015-16 Adopted Budget. At the Budget Adoption
hearing in June 2018, City Council requested that the Community Funding Program be updated
in order to assure that all applications received due consideration and that City Council is
provided with all information necessary to make final funding decisions. At that meeting, City
Council requested that the Parks and Recreation Commission evaluate all grant applications
and provide funding recommendations to Council for consideration. An updated policy with
minimal substantive changes was approved by City Council in 2020.
Budget by Fund
General Fund
The General Fund pays for core services such as public safety, recreation and community
services, planning and community development, streets and trees, and a host of other vital
services. The revenue used to pay for these services comes primarily from local taxes such as
property tax and sales tax, transient occupancy tax, charges for service, and a variety of other
discretionary sources.
General Fund revenue is estimated at $79.1 million in the FY 2020-21 Adopted Budget. This is
an overall decrease of $8.0 million (9.2%) when compared to the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget. In
recent years, the City has experienced local economic boom that had driven strong gains in sales
tax, property tax, and transient occupancy tax revenues, which were partially offset by
decreases in development -related fees. FY 2020-21 will experience significant General Fund
declines in sales tax ($4.7 million or 18%) and transient occupancy tax ($2.1 million or 22%) due
to COVID-19 impacts. Property tax is not anticipated to be affected by COVID-19 in FY 2020-21
due to the timing of assessed market valuations; however, the City anticipates a flattening of the
property tax revenues in FY 2021-22.
36
Table of Contents
In an effort to mitigate the impacts to COVID-19, the City is taking steps to reduce expenditures
by increasing vacancy levels through attrition (up to $3.2 million annually), reducing materials
and contract services spending ($650,000 and $1 million, respectively), reducing contingency
amounts by 50% or $850,000), and reducing the amount of special project and capital outlay
spending on an annual basis.
Although it is difficult to estimate the full -impacts of COVID-19 into the near and long-term, the
City's fiscal foundation remains strong. With the General Fund's Economic Uncertainty Reserve
intact and a healthy unassigned fund balance, the City is poised to withstand the impacts of
COVID-19 into the future.

Special Revenue Funds
Special Revenue Funds are a fund type used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue
sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. Special Revenue Funds
account for 7% of the citywide expenditure budget. The largest Special Revenue Fund accounts
for streets, roads, and transportation. Other funds account for storm drain management,
affordable housing programs, and park development. The Adopted Budget for Special Revenue
Funds for FY 2020-21 is $7.8 million, which is a $2.1 million, or 20.9%, lower from FY 2019-20
Adopted Budget primarily due to annual pavement maintenance reductions.
III
Table of Contents
Budgets within the Special Revenue Funds are funded by $8.2 million in restricted department
revenue, and $3.8 million in transfers, bringing total funding sources for the fund to $12.0
million. This will result in a projected increase to fund balance of $2.1 million. The Special
Revenue Funds are projected to end the year with fund balances of $27.6 million.
Capital Projects Funds
The Capital Improvement Project Fund, Stevens Creek Corridor Park Fund, and Capital Reserve
Fund are currently in the Capital Projects Fund type category. This fund type is typically used
to account for financial resources that are used for the acquisition or construction of major
capital facilities or to provide facilities for City departments and are identified in the five-year
Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
The Adopted Budget for the Capital Projects Funds for FY 2020-21 is $3.8 million. The FY 2020-
21 Adopted Budget is $34.2 million lower than FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget appropriations.
This is primarily due to a reduction in capital project spending resulting from the COVID-19
pandemic and its unprecedented uncertainty.
Enterprise Funds
Enterprise Funds are set up for specific services that are funded directly by fees charged for
goods or services. Enterprise Funds consist of Resource Recovery for the solid waste collection
franchise, Blackberry Farm for the City -owned golf course, the Cupertino Sports Center, and
Recreation Programs for cultural, youth, teen, sports, and physical recreation programs.
The Adopted Budget for Enterprise Funds for FY 2020-21 is $7.7 million, a decrease of $3.8
million from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget. Budgets within the Enterprise Funds are funded
by $4.5 million in program revenue and $2.5 million in transfers from the General Fund. The
Enterprise Funds also rely on $5.0 million of prior year fund balance, bringing total funding
sources for the funds to $12.0 million. The Enterprise Funds are projected to begin the fiscal year
with $5.0 million in retained earnings and are projected to end the year with retained earnings
of $4.3 million. Impacts to Enterprise Fund revenues as a result of COVID-19 are significant,
particularly while shelter -in -place orders remain in effect. FY 2019-20 experienced sharp
declines in the fourth quarter and as such, staff are conservatively budgeting for anticipated
reductions in overall revenue and expenditures. While it is difficult to estimate the extent of
shelter -in -place orders for FY 2020-21, staff will continue to monitor the activities and report to
City Council on a regular basis.
Internal Service Funds
Internal Service Funds are used for areas where goods or services are provided to other City
departments or governments on a cost -reimbursement basis. Internal Service Funds include
funds and programs for information technology, workers' compensation, equipment,
compensated absence, long-term disability, and retiree medical insurance.
39
Table of Contents
The Adopted Budget for the Internal Service Funds is $7.7 million, which is $0.3 million lower
than the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget. Budgets within Internal Service Funds are funded by $4.6
million in department revenue and $0.5 million in transfers from the General Fund. The
Internal Service Funds are projected to begin the fiscal year with $6.8 million in retained
earnings and are projected to end the year with retained earnings of $4.2 million.
Special Projects
The FY 2020-21 Adopted Budget includes funding for several one-time Special Projects. These
projects are identified as part of the Special Project section within each program and are
summarized in the table on the next page. This list excludes one-time capital outlays and
ongoing pavement management costs.

Capital Improvement Program
Each fiscal year, the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is funded by the Capital Reserve
and/or restricted grant and donation proceeds. The CIP is adopted at $2.2 million, or $23.5
million lower than the FY 2019-20 Adopted CIP. In addition to the unprecedented amount of
uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, this reduction is also due to a minimal remaining fund
balance in the Capital Reserve. While the City's policy to transfer excess fund balance in the
General Fund to the Capital Reserve remains effective, the impacts from COVID-19 will create
competing interests for use of those excesses. Below is a table of the FY 2020-21 Adopted CIP

Current Economic Update
National and State Economic Conditions
Through the fourth quarter of 2019, the U.S. economy continued to show steady growth. U.S.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) increased by 2.1% in 2019 according to the Bureau of Economic
Analysis, compared with an increase of 2.2% in 2018. The increase in real GDP in 2019 primarily
reflected positive contributions from personal consumption, exports, residential fixed
investment, federal government spending, and state and local government spending that were
partly offset by negative contributions from private inventory investment and nonresidential
fixed investment.
Through the first quarter of 2020, financial markets have experienced significant turbulence,
driven by a high level of uncertainty about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global
economy. US Treasury yields have declined, amid a global flight to quality. At the end of first
quarter, the yield on 2-year Treasuries was down 132 basis points year-to-date, and the yield on
10-year Treasuries was down nearly 125 basis points. The S&P 500 index declined 20.0% in the
first quarter as well. There are still many unknowns about the coronavirus including how
widespread it will become, how long it will take to contain the virus, and the actual impact on
economic activity. During this period of uncertainty, staff believe continued increases in
unemployment and deep contractions in overall economic activity will be experienced.
Financial markets will likely remain volatile over the near term, though large-scale global
monetary and fiscal stimulus programs will assist in mitigating the longer -term impact of the
pandemic. The Fed has taken a wide range of aggressive actions to help stabilize and provide
liquidity to the financial markets including the lowering of the target rate to to range of 0.0%-
0.25%. Fed Chair Powell has indicated that the Fed will continue to act "forcefully, proactively,
and aggressively" until the economy is solidly on a road to recovery.

increased to 8.7% from 7.0%.
Although the
unemployment rate has improved significantly from a high of 9.6% in 2010, economists believe
that if we are not currently in a recession, the chances of entering one this year are certain, thus
marking the end to the nation's longest -running expansionary period.
Consumer confidence, as reflected by the Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index,
decreased over the previous year and stands at 120.0 as of March 2020, including a 12.6 point
decrease over the previous month. The year -over -year decrease is the result of a deterioration in
the short-term outlook. The Present Situation Index remained relatively strong, reflective of an
economy that was on solid footing, and prior to the recent surge in unemployment claims.
However, the intensification of COVID-19 and extreme volatility in the financial markets have
increased uncertainty about the outlook for the economic and jobs. March's decline in
confidence is more in line with a severe contraction — rather than a temporary shock — and
further declines are sure to follow.

Table of Contents
California Association of Realtors (CAR). Growth in Santa Clara County slowed over the prior
year with the prices of single-family homes up 7.7% and sales down 19.0%. Recognizing that the
State has a chronic housing shortage and understanding that inadequate housing has the
potential to impede economic growth, state legislators have succeeded in passing a legislative
housing package that has the potential to make a difference.
Cupertino Economic Conditions
Despite strong economic performance continuing in Silicon Valley and Cupertino pre-COVID,
data from the State of California Employment Development Department indicates significant
impacts as a result of the virus. Employment in the San Jose/Sunnyvale/Santa Clara
Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) continues to increase. The preliminary estimate of the
March 2020 employment level in the MSA was 1.03 million, representing an approximately
300,000 drop from the March 2019 level. The March 2020 preliminary unemployment rate of
3.4% has increased from the 2.8% rate experienced a year ago. Our local unemployment rate is
lower than the national unemployment rate of 4.4%.
Housing prices remain strong compared to the same period in 2019. As of February 2020, single
family homes sold for a median home price of $2.08 million, a notable increase over the past
year. The increase in the median home prices correlates with property tax revenue being
expected to increase slightly compared to last year due to reassessments of development
projects, and additional TEA property tax share. Due to the timing of property appraisals
entering the assessor's role, the City does not anticipate significant impacts to property tax
revenues in FY 20-21. When property values are appraised again in January 2021 and are
included in the FY 21-22 roll, only then will the City expect to see adverse impacts resulting
from COVID-19. Construction activity, although strong in previous years, will continue to
flatten out as development projects, particularly Apple Park, are completed. Given the level of
volatility surrounding COVID-19 and the uncertainty of recovery time, it is difficult to estimate
the timing of significant projects that could have a positive impact on the City's general revenue
bases.
Key Budget Assumptions
Revenue Assumptions
Because of COVID-19, the FY 2021 Adopted Budget assumes significant declines in the sales tax
and transient occupancy tax categories. Other categories consider assumptions ranging from no
growth to conservative growth. As has been done in the past, revenue projections for each
category were based upon a careful examination of the collection history and patterns as they
relate to such factors as seasonality and performance in the economic environment that the City
is most likely to encounter in the coming year. With that, potential COVID-19 impacts were also
heavily weighed in determining the most reasonable estimated figures. Given the extreme
volatility and high level of uncertainty, staff are prepared to bring forward information and
budget adjustments to the City Council throughout the fiscal year and as the COVID-19
situation evolves. Revenue assumptions are discussed in detail in the Fund Summary section
under Financial Policies and Schedules.
45
Table of Contents
Personnel Assumptions
The City is entering the second year of its currently effective labor agreements which assume
3.5% cost of living adjustment increases. Equity adjustments and increases for retirement and
health were also included in the increase for compensation and benefits.
In addition, budgeted personnel expenditures factor in salary step increases for approximately
54% of employees who have yet to reach the top step in their classification's salary range.
Typically, a step increase is equivalent to a five percent increase in salary with a range of five
salary steps.
Non -Personnel Assumptions
Non -Personnel budgets were developed based on actual expenditures in prior years, and then
adjusted for FY 2021 funding needs. In addition, one-time projects have been separated out in
FY 2021 to ensure that expenditure trends reflect ongoing expenditure needs. Contingency
budgets are assumed to be reduced by 50% over the prior year, representing an approximate
$850,000 in savings. Contingencies are calculated at 5% of the total General Fund budget for
contractual services and supplies and materials for operating programs. Consistent with past
budgets, an additional 5% is allocated to the City Manager's discretionary budget to cover
unanticipated program expenses.
Ongoing Challenges
Retirement Benefits
Cupertino provides retirement benefits for its employees through the California Public
Employee's Retirement System (Ca1PERS). Poor investment returns during the Great Recession
and actuarial assumption changes have increased the gap between the pension system's assets
and liabilities, resulting in the overall funded status of the system falling significantly. The
funded status as of June 30, 2019 is estimated at 69%, down from 71% over the prior year due to
lower than expected investment returns.
In the last several years, Ca1PERS has taken steps to improve its long-term financial
sustainability. In December 2016, the Ca1PERS board voted to reduce the discount rate, also
known as the assumed rate of return for investments, from 7.5% to 7.0% over three years from
FY 2018-19 to FY 2020-21. In February 2018, the CAPERS board voted to decrease the
amortization period for new pension liabilities from 30 years to 20 years effective July 1, 2019.
While these changes will provide long-term benefits to the pension plan, they will also
considerably increase the City's pension contributions. The following table shows the City's
projected pension contributions from FY 2020-21 to FY 2025-26.

As part of the FY 2019 Adopted Budget, City Council approved the creation of a Pension Rate
Stabilization Program (PRSP), a Section 115 Trust that will act to stabilize pension rate volatility
and minimize the impact on the General Fund's operating budget from year to year. During FY
2019, the City contributed an initial investment of $8.0 million to the trust. The FY 2021
Proposed Budget includes this $8.0 million as well as an additional $4M contributed during FY
2020 as restricted fund balance to provide stabilization.
Revenue Volatility
The City's revenue mix is heavily reliant on volatile business -to -business sales tax, which makes
up a large portion of the City's annual General Fund revenues. Business -to -business sales taxes
are very sensitive to economic fluctuations as evidenced by Cupertino's experience during the
dotcom bust from 2000-2004. Our heavy reliance on the volatile high tech industry also makes
us vulnerable. The loss of one of our top three sales tax producers in FY 2013-14 only made the
City more reliant on a single tax producer, making us more vulnerable to its business volatility.
COVID-19 in expected to significantly increase the volatility of the City's revenues in FY 2020-
21; particularly its sales and transient occupancy taxes. While the overall reductions in these
two categories ($6.9 million) is sure to have a profound impact, the General Fund is well -
positioned to absorb the temporary decline and withstand the economic recovery period into
the future.
Health Benefits
There is uncertainty around potential repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act (ACA)
and how it would affect health care costs. Rate increases have stabilized with the
implementation of the ACA.

Table of Contents
Elements of the Budget Document
The budget is the City's fundamental policy document. It describes the City's goals and details
how resources are allocated to achieve these goals. In addition, the budget serves as the annual
financial plan, an operations guide and a communications tool.
The budget guide provides an overview of the elements of the budget document. It includes a
glossary of budget terminology. The budget document includes the following key elements:
1. Budget Message: This section includes the City Manager's transmittal letter submitting the
budget to the City Council. The Budget Message also summarizes the City's current and
long-term financial position, highlights new programs and organizational changes
addressed in the budget and outlines both short and long-term goals of our city
government.
2. Fiscal Strategic Plan: The Fiscal Strategic Plan Committee was formed to analyze current
funding gaps and present a more accurate financial picture. The committee identifies one-
time, non -recurring revenue.
3. Budget Guide: This section includes the City's Mission and other tools to assist the reader in
identifying key terminology in the budget document.
4. Community Profile: This section describes Cupertino's history, the economic and city
profiles, community statistics, recreation and community services, education, and additional
areas of interest in the city.
5. Financial Policies and Schedules: This section provides financial information on projected
revenues, expenditures, fund balances and reserves. It includes the Budget Summary of
Funds as well as detailed fund descriptions and information on all revenue sources and
expenditure projections.
This section also includes fund balance trends and detailed revenue and expenditure
projections for the next five years.
Additionally, this section includes an analysis of all City revenues by category. Our major
revenue projections are based on trends, current economic indicators and other agency
input. Sales tax projections are based on input from our sales tax consultants, industry
trends and major company forecasts. Property tax revenues are projected by the county and
adjusted by staff based on known trends. Park dedication fees are estimated based on
current development projects and other taxes are reviewed quarterly and budgets are based
on this trend analysis.

6. Departmental Operating Budgets: This section details historical and adopted expenditures
by operating department. The City is organized into seven key operating functions,
including Administration, Law Enforcement, Innovation Technology, Administrative
Services, Parks and Recreation, Community Development, and Public Works. Each
department budget includes a summary narrative, financial information regarding the
department and each of its major divisions, and personnel information.
Expenditures for employee compensation and benefits are based on negotiated contracts.
The materials categories of expenditures are based on trends. Contract services and capital
outlay are justified each year by the departments. Special Projects include any one-time
projects or costs.
Departmental expenditures are divided into the following categories:
Employee Compensation represents permanent full-time and part-time salary costs and
overtime.
Employee Benefits represents PERS retirement, health insurance costs, and other benefits.
Materials represents items purchased for repair and maintenance, operational activities such
as books, uniforms and recreation supplies, and office supplies.
Contract Services represents legal, consulting and other professional services, contract
repair and maintenance, utility charges, training and memberships, equipment rentals,
insurance and employment services.
Cost Allocation represents Cost Allocation and Internal Service charges to user departments
Contingencies represent 2.5% of total budgeted materials and contract costs and is designed
for unexpected expenditures and/or emergencies.
Capital Outlay represents expenditures for tangible fixed assets including land, buildings,
furniture, equipment and City vehicles.
Special Projects represent any one-time projects or costs.
Debt Service/Other represents principal and interest payments on outstanding debt and
interfund transfers.
7. Non -Departmental Operating Budgets: This section details historical and adopted
expenditures for the functions of interfund transfers and debt service.
51
Table of Contents
8. Capital Improvements: The Capital Improvements section is in a separate document called
Capital Improvement Program that details the proposed capital projects for the next five
fiscal years. These projects are organized into five categories: Parks, Buildings, Streets,
Traffic Facilities, and Storm Drainage. The five-year budget denotes funding sources and a
description of each project. The City Council approves funding of Capital Improvements on
a total project basis. The project may expend the funds over multiple years.
Glossary of Budget Terminology
The City's budget contains specialized and technical terminology that is unique to public finance
and budgeting. To help the reader understand the terms, a glossary of budgetary terminology is

History
"This place of San Joseph Cupertino has good water and much firewood, but nothing suitable for a
settlement because it is among the hills very near to the range of cedars which I mentioned yesterday, and
lacks level lands."
When Spanish explorer San Juan Bautista De Anza traveled through California in 1776, he and
his party documented these words about the land surrounding Stevens Creek, named back then
as Arroyo San Joseph Cupertino. However, first impressions can often be misleading.
Underneath the spiny, overgrown bush was a completely different land waiting to be
uncovered. During this time, the area was populated by Native Americans who hunted and
gathered, prospering from the abundant resources the land had to offer.
It wasn't until 1848 when the first American settler, Elijah Stephens, a blacksmith from South
Carolina, moved to the area —at this time, named simply 'West Side' and primarily owned by
the government. After crossing over the Sierra Nevada in wagons, he discovered the true value
of the land underneath the bush, and proceeded to purchase over 300 acres of farmland to grow
grapes and blackberries. Stephens pioneered the way for farmers, which established West Side
as an agricultural hot spot. The land Stephens owned eventually became Blackberry Farm, and
the road, creek, and reservoir were all named after him, although misspelled.
In early West Side, many of the newest advances in agriculture were being developed. Settlers
were drawn to the land because of its rich earth, where they were able to grow products that
competed on the world market. Once the bush had been cleared, they grew grapes, which
covered the West Valley area with vineyards by the late 1800s. By the 1900s, a plant louse called
Phylloxera spread throughout the vineyards, attacking the roots of the grape vines, killing the
grapes and putting a halt to wine production. As a solution, nearly everything was replanted
with fruit orchards. When the fruit trees blossomed, visitors would come to the orchards for
"The Valley of Heart's Delight" festivals, which celebrated the prosperous agriculture of the
West Valley area.
Apart from the farmland, West Side was primarily known as a crossroads, an intersection
between Saratoga -Sunnyvale Road and Stevens Creek. This served as a way station for travelers
to pass through while going from town to town. As more people came to West Side to take
advantage of the rich farm land, more family holdings gathered around the cross-roads.
Starting off as just a post office and home union store, West Side's humble cross-roads brought
many diverse communities, all attracted by the preferable climate and profitable market for
crops.
As more people were drawn to the area around the cross-roads, the orchards were gradually
replaced with modern houses for workers. The population steadily grew, and the face of West
Side changed, progressing to a more modern town. The community wanted to rename the city,
as to not confuse it with other cities, as well as establish a unique identity. John T. Doyle, a
59
Table of Contents
lawyer from San Francisco, and writer of historical anthologies on the area, chose the name
"Cupertino" after the original name of the creek.
After the post -World War II population boom, the growing community petitioned for
Cupertino to become an incorporated town. Members of the community were worried that the
alternative to incorporation was to have parts of Cupertino annexed by surrounding cities,
splitting up the community and erasing the local culture. To preserve the rural atmosphere,
lower taxes for farmers, start a local government, and prepare for growth, Cupertino voted for
incorporation. In 1955, Cupertino officially became the 13th city in Santa Clara County.
By the 1970s, Cupertino once again began to undergo dramatic changes. The growing
community attracted several large technology corporations. Lockheed Martin, HP, Intel, and
many other big names established themselves in the Silicon Valley. Apple Inc. was founded in
Cupertino in 1976 and quickly grew into the tech giant it's known for today.
In the late 20th century, Cupertino and the surrounding areas experienced another surge in
population growth, this time due to the immigration of people from Asian countries.
Immigration laws at the time were in the favor of families looking to move to the Silicon Valley.
People immigrated here for a variety of reasons —whether they were aspiring for career
prospects with major tech companies, or striving for a quality education for their children,
everyone who immigrated here had a common goal: to find opportunities to work hard for a
better life for themselves and their families.
2020 Community Economic Profile
Cupertino, with a population of 66,762 and City limits stretching across 13 square miles, is
considered one of the most prestigious cities to live and work in the Bay Area.
Economic health is an essential component to maintaining a balanced city, which provides high-
level opportunities and services that create and help sustain a sense of community and quality
of life. Public and private interests must be mutual so that success as a partnership is a direct
reflection of success as a community. The cornerstone of this partnership is a cooperative and
responsive government that fosters residential and business prosperity and strengthens
working relationships among all sectors of the community.
Because Cupertino is a mature, 93% built -out city, the City of Cupertino focuses on business
retention and revitalization. Cupertino is world renowned as the home of high-tech giants, such
as Apple, Inc. and Seagate Technologies, and as a community with stellar public schools. De
Anza College, one of the largest single -campus community colleges in the country, is another
major employer and a magnet for attracting local and international students. The City's
proactive economic development efforts have resulted in an innovative environment for start-
ups and growing companies to thrive. The City strives to retain and attract local companies
through active outreach and a responsive and customer -oriented entitlement process.

The Annual Budget Process
The City's annual budget is prepared on a July 1 to June 30 fiscal year basis. However, the budget
process is an ongoing process that occurs throughout the year and includes the phases of
development, proposal, adoption, monitoring, and amendment.
The budget development phase begins in December with the preparation of budget instructions
and work program development by the City Council and City Manager. During March,
departments prepare the budgets for which they are responsible. These proposed department
budgets are reviewed by the Finance Division using current and prior year trends data. The City
Manager then reviews the proposals with the Director of Administrative Services and
departmental staff and makes final decisions which form the basis of the City Manager's
Proposed Budget. The proposed budget is then submitted to the City Council in May.
During the months of May and June, the City Council considers the budget proposals at a study
session and public hearing. At these times, the Council hears from Boards, Commissions,
community groups, and the public regarding budget requests and recommendations. The
adopted budget is adopted by resolution in June and takes effect on July 1.
The following chart illustrates the City's budget reporting cycle. Staff reports to Council on a
quarterly basis in addition to the annual proposed and adopted budget. Should amendments to
the budget be required outside of this cycle, staff will bring budget amendments as separate
Council staff reports.

Budget Amendment Process
After the budget is adopted, the City enters the budget monitoring phase. Throughout the year,
expenditures are monitored by the Finance Division staff and department managers to ensure
that funds are used in an approved manner. Adjustments to expenditures within or between
departmental budgets are accomplished on an as -needed basis administratively throughout the
year. The City Manager and Department Heads can transfer funds between their line items and/or
divisions as needed.
City Council approval is required for additional appropriations from fund balances or from new
revenue sources.

Structure of City Finances
Cost Accounting
The City of Cupertino has five internal service funds that account for innovation & technology,
equipment replacement, workers' compensation, long-term disability and compensated absence,
and retiree health costs experienced by City departments. Fund costs are allocated to user
departments or operating funds based on salaries, equipment and software purchase price,
actuarial studies and actual and projected service level. Please view the Cost Allocation Plan and
Changes to the Internal Service Fund section of this document for details.
Other employee fringe benefits such as medical, dental, life insurance, and pensions are directly
added to department costs as a percentage of salaries. Staff salary and benefit costs are split
among departments and related funds based on the anticipated percentage of time spent working
in various departments.
Overhead Cost Allocation
All overhead costs are allocated to the appropriate program within the limits of local, State and
federal laws. The City utilizes a two-step method (double step down method) where costs are
first allocated among the central service department support programs to arrive at the total costs
of central service programs. Beginning in FY 2014, overhead/indirect costs associated with service
departments in the General Fund were allocated based on a Cost Allocation Plan (CAP).
These total costs are then allocated to the departments and funds that are benefiting from these
expenses. The corresponding revenue is collected by the General Fund for indirect/overhead costs
associated with the Cost Allocation Plan (CAP) and Internal Service Funds and allocated directly
to the department providing the service.
Basis of Budgeting
Basis of Budgeting refers to the method used to recognize revenues and expenditures in the
budget. For the City of Cupertino, the basis of budgeting is the same basis used for accounting.
The modified accrual basis is followed in the Governmental Funds, including the General,
Capital, Debt Service, and Special Revenue funds. Under this basis, revenues are recognized
when they become "susceptible to accrual", which means they are both measureable and
available. Measurable means the transaction can be determined.
The budget is split into nine Departments: City Council and Commissions, Administration, Law
Enforcement, Innovation and Technology, Administrative Services, Parks and Recreation,
75
Table of Contents
Planning and Community Development, Public Works, Non Departmental (includes budget that
are not attributable to any specific division) and Capital Projects. These departments are further
split into divisions then programs. The programs within the divisions are balanced at the
department level within a given fund.
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR)
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is prepared by Crowe and Horwath, the
City's Auditors and according to "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles' (GAAP).
Citizen Participation
Every two years the City of Cupertino has a Community Survey completed by Godbe Research
to measure resident's satisfaction with living in the City, City Services and to identify issues
facing the City. In addition, the budget study session and budget hearings are public meetings
where citizens are given the opportunity to comment on the budget. The public can also provide
feedback to two Council sub -committees, the Fiscal Strategic Planning and Audit Committees.
76
Table of Contents
Fund Structure
For accounting purposes, a state or local government is not treated as a single, integrated entity.
Rather, a government is viewed as a collection of smaller separate businesses known as 'funds'.
Fund accounting is an accounting system emphasizing accountability rather than profitability. In
this system, a fund is a self -balancing set of accounts, segregated for specific purposes in
accordance with laws and regulations or special restrictions and limitations.
The City's finances are structured in a variety of funds that are the basic accounting and reporting
entities in governmental accounting. The funds that comprise the FY 2020-21 budget are grouped
into two major categories, Governmental Funds and Proprietary Funds. The purpose of each of
the various funds within these two categories is described below:
Governmental Funds
Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions of the City are
financed. The acquisition, use, and balances of the City's expendable financial resources and the
related liabilities (except those accounted for in the proprietary funds) are accounted for through
governmental funds. Governmental funds include Tax Supported Funds, Special Revenue Funds
and Federal Grant Funds. They are accounted for under the modified accrual basis of accounting.
• Tax Supported Funds
Tax Supported Funds include the General and Capital Improvement Funds. The General
Fund is the primary operating fund for governmental services. The Capital Improvement
Fund is utilized for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities.
77

Tax Supported Funds Purpose
General The General Fund is used to pay for core services such as public
safety, parks and recreation, planning and community
development, public works, and a host of other vital services.

fees, charges for services, and a variety of other discretionary
sources.

Fiscal Policies - Revenue Policies
PURPOSE
To establish revenue polices that assist the City in striving for and maintaining a diversified and
stable revenue system to prevent undue or unbalanced reliance on any one source of funds. This
revenue diversity will shelter the City from short -run fluctuations in any one revenue source.
SCOPE
All revenue sources across all funds.
POLICY
To the extent possible, maximize investment yield while maintaining a high level of liquidity for
the City's anticipated capital costs.
Identify and recommend sources of revenue necessary to maintain the services desired by the
community and to maintain the City's quality of life.
Perform ongoing evaluations of existing sources of revenue to maximize the City's revenue base.
Recover costs of special services through user fees.
Pursue full cost recovery and reduce the General Fund fee subsidy to the degree feasible.
Allocate all internal service and Cost Allocation Plan charges to appropriate user departments
and

Table of Contents
Fiscal Policies - Expenditure Policies
PURPOSE
To establish expenditure control polices through the appropriate internal controls and
procedures. Management must ensure expenditures comply with the legally adopted or
amended budget.
SCOPE
All expenditure categories across all funds.
POLICY
Each Department or Division Manager will be responsible for the administration of their
department/division budget. This includes accomplishing the goals and objectives incorporated
into the budget and monitoring each department/division budget for compliance with spending
limits.
Accurately charge expenditures to the appropriate chart of accounts;
Maintain operating activities at levels which are offset by revenues;
The City will make every effort to control expenditures to ensure City services and programs
provided to its citizens and tax payers are cost effective and efficient;
Evaluate expenditures at the department and project levels to ensure control;
Before the City purchases any major asset or undertakes any operating or capital arrangements
that create fixed assets or ongoing operational expenses, the implications of such purchases or
arrangements will be fully determined for current and future years;
All compensation planning and collective bargaining will include analysis of total cost of
compensation which includes analysis of salary increases, health benefits, pension contributions,
fringe benefits and other personnel costs. The City will only propose operating personnel costs
which can be sustained by on -going operating revenues;
Reduce costs and improve productivity through the use of efficiency and effective measures. -
Structure debt financing to provide the necessary capital while minimizing future debt service
costs.
Table of Contents
Fiscal Policies - Capital Improvement Policy
PURPOSE
To establish a Capital Improvement Policy to assist in future planning.
SCOPE
All anticipated Capital Improvement Projects for the current fiscal year plus four additional fiscal
years.
POLICY
The City will prepare and update a five year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) encompassing all
City facilities.
Projects included in the CIP will have complete information on the need for the project (project
justification), description and scope of work, total cost estimates, future cost estimates, future
operating and maintenance costs and how the project will be funded.
An objective process for evaluating CIP projects with respect to the overall needs of the City will
be established through a priority ranking of CIP projects. The ranking of projects will be used to
allocate resources to ensure priority projects are completed effectively and efficiently.
Changes to the CIP such as addition of new projects, changes in scope and costs of a project
or reprioritization of projects will require City Manager and City Council approval.
The City will maintain its physical assets at a level adequate to protect the City's capital
investment and to minimize future operating maintenance and replacement costs. The City
recognizes that deferred maintenance increases future capital costs, thus placing a burden on
future residents. Therefore, the budget will provide for adequate maintenance and the orderly
replacement of capital plant and equipment from current revenues when possible.
The City will determine the least costly funding method for its capital projects and will obtain
grants, contributions and low cost state or federal loans whenever possible.
The City will utilize "pay-as-you-go" funding for capital improvement expenditures considered
recurring, operating or maintenance in nature. The City may also utilize "pay-as-you-go" funding
for capital improvements when current revenues and adequate fund balances are available or
when issuing debt would adversely affect the City's credit rating.
Table of Contents
The City will consider the use of debt financing for capital projects under the following
circumstances:
• When the project's useful life will exceed the terms of the financing
• When resources are deemed sufficient and reliable to service the long-term debt
• When market conditions present favorable interest rates for City financing
• When the issuance of debt will not adversely affect the City's credit rating and debt
coverage ratios.

Fiscal Policies - Information Technology Replacement
and Capitalization Policy
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for replacing and capitalizing technology
equipment and systems. Replacement is indicated when a product has run its useful life and
updating/upgrading is no longer an option. Capitalization of equipment requires the set aside of
funding for future replacement.
Generally, technology equipment with a life expectancy of at least 5 years and a total cost of over
$5,000 shall be capitalized. Software with an expected life of at least 7 years or a cost of over
$10,000 shall also be capitalized. Software -as -a -Service (SaaS) contracts are not capitalizable and
are expensed as incurred.
Technology upgrades are determined by the Innovation Technology Department and user
departments based on functionality, vendor support, and industry standards.
SCOPE
This policy covers the City of Cupertino: network infrastructure (routers, switches, firewalls,
security appliances); server infrastructure (files servers, database servers, mail servers, web
servers, etc); user laptops and workstations; mission -critical systems, telephone system
(telephone equipment not already listed previously); desktop software; enterprise software;
workgroup software; and broadcast video and audiovisual equipment.
Cell phones, printers, and tablet devices are not covered by this policy as these items do not meet
the minimum criteria for capitalization. Replacement of these items are at the discretion of the
Innovation Technology Department in concert with the user Department.
POLICY
All technology shall be replaced according to the following:
Network infrastructure (routers, switches, firewalls) shall be replaced when no longer functional,
as determined by the Innovation Technology Department Division (IT), or when parts or support
are no longer available from the manufacturer. Replacement needs will be determined by IT
annually as part of the operating budget process. Network infrastructure with a life expectancy
of at least 5 years and a total cost of over $5,000 shall be capitalized.
Table of Contents
Server infrastructure shall be replaced when it is no longer functional (defined as not being able
to meet its intended purpose), or when parts or support are no longer available from the
manufacturer. These needs are evaluated annually by IT and user departments as part of the
operating budget process. Servers are evaluated as they approach 3 years in service, and placed
on the schedule accordingly. Server lifetime may be extended by the purchase of additional
memory or disk. Server infrastructure with a life expectancy of at least 5 years and a total cost of
over $5,000 shall be capitalized.
User workstations shall be replaced, on average, after 4 years as is industry standard. Zero Client
work stations shall be replaced, on average, every 8 years. IT will determine the need for specific
replacements. User workstations shall not be capitalized as they do not meet the minimum
criteria for capitalization.
Interoperable systems are defined as a group of interdependent and/or interoperable
components that together form a single functional unit. These components may be interconnected
by their structural relationships, their common functional behavior, or by both. Generally, for a
system to be eligible for capitalization, the cumulative value of its components should be at least
$5,000 and have a life expectancy of five years or more. A common example of such system would
be a telephone system or network. Individual component or replacement costs are not
capitalizable unless they are greater than $5,000 and increase the value of the asset.
Enterprise Software replacement shall be determined individually by IT and the end users. Only
those large enterprise systems (on -site or on premise) with an expected life of at least 7 years or a
cost of over $10,000 shall be capitalized. SaaS contracts are not capitalizable and are to be expenses
as incurred.
Desktop Software is replaced/updated according to Microsoft's releases of Windows and Office.
Software shall not be more than one version out of date to ensure functionality and vendor
support. IT will generally wait at least 90 days after a new release to roll out new versions. Only
software with an expected life of at least 7 years or a cost of over $10,000 shall be capitalized.
Desktop software generally does not meet this criterion.
Broadcast Video and Audiovisual Equipment/Systems shall be repaired or replaced when
determined no longer functional. Replacement will occur on average after 10 years. Broadcast
video and audiovisual equipment/systems with a life expectancy of at least 5 years and a total
cost of over $5,000 shall be capitalized. Equipment that does not meet these criteria may still be
capitalized if the item is a component of interoperable systems.

Fiscal Policies - Committed, Unassigned Fund
Balance, and Use of One Time Funds Policy
PURPOSE
To establish assigned and unassigned fund balance and one time use policies.
SCOPE
The General Fund and Capital Funds.
POLICY
To maintain sufficient committed and unassigned fund balance (general fund only) in each fund
for the ability to meet following economic uncertainties:
Economic Uncertainty - $19,000,000 and represents two months of General Fund (GF)
expenditures excluding transfers out plus a two year drop in total general fund revenue of 13%
or approximately 1.5 months, excluding the use of reserves. Transfers out are primarily used to
fund Capital Projects and do not represent on -going expenditures. This assignment will change
from year to year based on budgeted general fund expenditures and revenues.
■ Mitigate short-term economic downturns and volatility in revenues (2 years or less)
■ Sustain city services in the event of an emergency
■ Meet requirements for debt reserves
■ Meet operating cash flow requirements as a result of delay in the receipt of taxes, grant
proceeds and other operating revenues
PERS - $12,000,000 and represents the initial investment into the City's Pension Rate Stabilization
Program (PRSP). As a result of the significant increase in retirement costs based on the most recent
actuarial forecast, the City elects to establish and fund a secondary pension trust to assist in
stabilizing the potential impact of pension cost volatility on the City's operating budget. Annual
contributions subsequent to the initial funding are determined by calculating the difference
between CAPERS' current discount rate and a more conservative rate determined by the City.
This difference is to be transferred to the pension trust and to be used solely for the benefit of
members in the plan.

Sustainability Reserve — Cupertino's Sustainability Division oversees the City's Climate Action
Plan (CAP), which defines strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and provides residents,
businesses and schools with programs and services focused on energy efficiency, renewable
energy, water conservation, alternative transportation and other sustainable actions. The City
receives rebates for projects that successfully meet the eligibility requirements such as energy or
water efficiency. If the rebates were not initially budgeted, they are categorized as committed
fund balance in the General Fund. The purpose of this reserve is to help support future
sustainability projects/programs.
Unassigned — $500,000 and represents 1% of the total general fund operating budget. This
assignment may change from year to year based on budgeted general fund expenditures.
■ Absorb unanticipated operating needs that arise during the fiscal year that were not
anticipated during the budget process
■ Absorb unexpected claims or litigation settlements
Capital Improvement — $5,000,000 and represents average dollars spent for capital projects in the
last three fiscal years. This assignment may change from year to year based on actuals dollars
spent on capital projects and anticipated future capital project needs.
■ Meet future capital project needs so as to minimize future debt obligations
The City shall not use fund balances/reserves in lieu of revenues to pay for ongoing expenses
except as specifically provided in the City's reserve policy.

Fiscal Policies - Community Funding Policy
PURPOSE
The City of Cupertino currently provides funding to local non-profit organizations in the areas
of social services, fine arts and other programs for the general public. This policy establishes a
standard application process whereby funding decisions of non-profit requests can be addressed
on a fair and consistent basis by establishing a set of criteria for evaluating requests, ensuring that
all entities follow a formal application process and pre -approving a dollar limit for those requests.
SCOPE
All requests for funding must comply with this policy.
POLICY
The applicant should identify the services provided, purpose for the funds, how the expenditure
aligns to City priorities and how the funds will be used to benefit the Cupertino community.
A recurring organization should state how prior year funds, if any, were used.
The applicant should include information about the organization, its budget and its purpose.
Non-profit organizations which serve multi -jurisdictions should state what they have requested
from other cities/organizations they service in regard to this program request.
Cupertino does not fund ongoing operational costs. Requests should be for one-time, project
specific needs.
The organization must show that their staff has the experience to implement and manage the
project. More than 75% of the budget must go to direct service costs versus administrative costs.
Staff should include all requests and funding recommendations for Council consideration.

receive and appropriate (authorize to spend) each year. The purpose of this law is to limit
government spending by putting a cap on the total proceeds of taxes that may be appropriated
each year. The original Article XIIIB was further modified by Proposition 111 and SB 88 approved
by California voters in June of 1990. Proposition 111 allows cities more flexibility in choosing
certain inflation and population factors to calculate the limit.

Appropriations Limit Appropriation Subject to Limit
The limit is different for each agency and the limit changes each year. Each year's limit is based
on the amount of tax proceeds that were authorized to be spent in fiscal year 1978-79 in each
agency, modified for changes in inflation and population in each subsequent year. Proposition
111 has modified those factors to allow cities to choose either the growth in California Per Capita
Income or the growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction in the city.
Alternatively, the city could select a population growth factor represented by the population
growth in Santa Clara County. Each year the city establishes its appropriations limit for the
following fiscal year.

The City's appropriations limit for FY 2020-21 was $109,062,934, $4,309,354 or 4.1% higher than
the FY 2019-20 limit of $104,753,580.
Legal Debt Margin
Fiscal Year 2020-21
The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross
assessed valuation. However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based
upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1981-82 fiscal year, each parcel is now assessed at
100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The
computation shown below reflects a conversion of assessed valuation data for fiscal year 2019-20
from the current full valuation perspective to the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the
legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local governments located within the
State.

General Fund Summary
The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for basic services such as
public safety, public works, planning and development, park maintenance, code enforcement,
and the administrative services required to support them. The fund generates revenue from the
City's discretionary funding sources (e.g., property tax, sales tax, transient occupancy tax and
utility tax). As a rule, general fund resources are used only to fund operations that do not have
other dedicated (restricted) funding sources. Operations that rely heavily upon non -general fund
resources, such as street maintenance, solid waste collection, and recreation are accounted for in
other funds. Information on these funds may be found in the Other Funds section of this
document.
For FY 2020-21, General Fund revenue estimates (excluding fund balance) total $79.1 million,
representing an $8.0 million, or 9.9%, decrease from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget, mostly due
to decreases in sales tax, transient occupancy tax, and charges for services. When fund balance
carryover is included, General Fund resources total $52.0 million. Staff are anticipating
approximately $800,000 in vacancy savings during FY 2020-21 which would result in additional
fund balance savings and an ending funding of approximately $52.8 million.
General Fund expenditure estimates total $80.5 million, which is slightly higher than the FY 2019-
20 Adopted Budget. The General Fund's ending fund balance is projected to decrease by 3% from
FY 2019-20 estimated ending fund balance. This is due to a significant reduction to projected
sales tax and transient occupancy tax revenues from prior years as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic.

General Fund Revenue
Estimates for the FY 2020-21 beginning fund balance and General Fund revenue sources are based
upon a careful examination of collection history and patterns as they relate to such factors as
seasonality and performance in the economic environment that the City is most likely to
encounter in the coming year. FY 2020-21 revenue estimates are based on the anticipated increase
or decrease in activity and receipts over the current year. Each source of revenue can be
influenced by external (outside of the City's control) and/or internal factors. The FY 2020-21
revenue estimates are built on the assumption of conservative economic decline due to the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic.
As shown in the chart below, FY 2020-21 revenues are estimated at $79.1 million, a 9.9% decrease
over the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.

Sales and Use Tax commonly referred to as just the "sales tax" has two components: (1) an excise
tax imposed on retailers for the privilege of selling
tangible personal property, and (2) an excise tax
imposed on a person and applies to purchases
from out-of-state vendors that are not required to
collect tax on their sales. The proceeds of sales and
use taxes imposed within the boundaries of
Cupertino are distributed by the State to various
agencies, with the City of Cupertino receiving one

governments as a potential new source of revenue for affordable housing and transportation.
Should the City decide to include a similar measure on the ballot in November 2020, and subject
to voter approval, the City has an opportunity to retain local control over the additional sales tax
proceeds.
The City's sales tax revenues are generated from five principal economic categories: business -to -
business 65.0% (includes electronic equipment and software manufacturers and distributors),
state and county pools 20%, restaurants and hotels 6%, general retail 4%, and fuel and service
stations and other 6%.
Our two largest sales tax payers in the business -to -business category represent a large part of that
sector and therefore can significantly affect sales tax trends. The top tax payer's corporate and
business technology spending has driven growth in this sector. Sales tax activity has decreased
across most sectors. This decrease is attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic that has impacted
spending overall. Given these trends, the City's FY 2020-21 sales tax revenue is projected to show
an immediate, significant decline with conservative increases throughout the pandemic and
recessionary period to follow.
Sales tax receipts increased by 26.1% in FY 2016-17 due to a onetime $3.5 million payment related
to the close out of the triple flip and took a slight dip of 2.8% in FY 17-18. Sales tax revenue was
expected to increase 3% in FY 2019-20 but
a decrease is now expected due to the
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Sales
tax revenues are estimated to generate
$20.9 million in FY 2020-21, which is down
18.4% from the FY 2019-20 Adopted
Budget. Of the $20.9 million, it is
estimated that potentially a maximum of
$1.7 million will be received in the second
half of FY 20-21 versus the first half due to
the 90-Day Sales Tax Payment Extension
Executive Order of Governor Gavin
Newson and the CDTFA Small Business
Relief Payment Plans. The swift reaction by consumers and businesses to the outbreak of COVID-
19 in the U.S. has caused a huge decrease in spending on certain goods and services. The national
and state response, combined with the uncertainty of how long the presence of the virus will
disrupt the U.S. economy has made revenue forecasting particularly challenging. This estimate
assumes the virus will have run its course by the end of September and also assumes that the
majority of supply chain disruptions impacting manufacturers will have been resolved by mid-
summer 2020 and that proposed federal actions will be successful in avoiding a deep recession.
Under these assumptions, sales tax revenues are expected to "bottom out" by the fourth quarter
of 2020 with subsequent gains expected to be conservative to moderate for several quarter
106

thereafter. As the City moves forward through the COVID-19 pandemic and as more data
becomes available, staff will bring forth updates and adjustments on a regular basis as necessary.

Under current law, property is assessed at actual full cash value with the maximum levy being
1% of the assessed valuation. The assessed value of real property that has not changed ownership
can be adjusted by the change in the California Consumer Price Index (CCPI) up to a maximum
of 2% per year. Property which changes ownership, property which is substantially altered,
newly -constructed property, State -assessed property, and personal property are assessed at the
full market value in the first year and subject to the two percent cap, thereafter.
In 1978, voters approved the passage of Proposition 13, which froze property tax rates and limited
the amount that rates could increase each year. Cupertino had one of the lowest property tax
rates in Santa Clara County receiving only $0.02 for every $1.00 paid. Subsequent legislation
required Counties to provide "no/low tax" cities with a Tax Equity Allocation (TEA) equal to 7%
of the property tax share, however, the property tax distribution for the no/low tax cities in Santa
Clara County was limited to 55% of what other TEA cities in the state received.

In FY 2006-07 West Valley cities won the passage of State legislation which restored a portion of
TEA property tax revenue. This TEA change provided an additional $1.35 million in property
tax annually and increased the City's share of property taxes to 5.6%. Cupertino, in conjunction
with three other West Valley cities, continued legislative efforts to gain parity with other no/low
property tax cities in the state. In FY 2015-16, Governor Brown agreed to restore TEA revenues
over a five-year period. As shown in the graph above, TEA will be fully restored and Cupertino
will keep 7.0% of property tax revenues in FY 2019-20 compared to 6.72% in FY 2018-19.
Additionally, Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF), a mechanism, enacted in July of
1992 by the State Legislature to shift local tax revenues from cities, counties, and special districts
to a State control ERAF, absorbs the shift -back of the TEA as illustrated in the chart below.

projected to decrease 21.9% in FY 20-21. Assuming the summer 2020 period begins to show signs

The City's tax rate is generally lower than that of other cities within Santa Clara County, as shown
in the chart above. In March 2002, voters approved extending the utility tax's sunset date from
2015 to 2030. This extension corresponded with the extended debt maturity date resulting from
the refinancing of debt for capital improvement projects. To maintain tax revenues currently
received from telecom services, voters passed a measure in 2009 to update the ordinance to the
changing technology in this area.

Franchise fees are received from cable, solid waste, water, gas and electricity franchisees that
operate in the City. The fees range from 1% to 12% of the franchisee's gross revenues depending
on each particular agreement. As shown in the graph below, these revenues are relatively steady
and not sensitive to economic fluctuations.
Franchise fee revenues decreased
by 3.3% in FY 2018-19 from the
prior year. In FY 2019-20,
franchise fee revenues are
trending down 8.2% partially due
to the winding down of
development resulting in lower
solid waste revenues. Budgeted
revenues are expected to remain
at approximately $3 million for
FY 2020-21. This revenue source

With the influx of several major construction projects beginning in 2012, revenues began
increasing. The largest of the projects included the Apple Park and Main Street developments.
These projects coupled with a strong housing recovery created a record year for revenues in FY
2013-14. These revenues have since returned to historic levels. In FY 2020-21, these revenues are
expected to remain at $1.2 million.

This category accounts for charges to users of City services funded by the General Fund as well
as internal City-wide overhead. The City attempts to recover the cost of the services, including
planning, zoning, and engineering permit processing for new property development as well as
some recreation -related fees. As such, this revenue source is sensitive to economic fluctuations,
as shown in the graph below. Apple Park and other large developments generated large one-time
revenues in FY 2013-14 as well as FY 2015-16 and FY 2016-17.

comprehensive cost allocation plan (CAP) was approved by Council in April 2016, new CAP
charges were included to capture internal strategic support services that were previously
excluded (City Council, Facilities, Maintenance, etc.). In FY 2015-16, the City's administration
changed its methodology for tracking developer deposits driven by increased developer activity
and, as a result, both budgets for revenues and expenses were increased by anticipated deposit
amounts leading to another large increase in revenue.
Current year actuals will come in lower compared to budgeted levels due to the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic causing the City's recreation facilities to shut down by way of the shelter -
in -place orders of the Santa Clara County Public Health Department. Although increases to City
fees (effective October 1, 2020) represent additional revenues of approximately $900,000, charges
for services are anticipated to decrease to $11.1 million while the uncertainty surround COVID-
19 remains.

are still many unknowns about the coronavirus including how widespread it will become, how
long it will take to contain the virus, and the actual impact on the economic activity. We believe
containment efforts and supply chain disruptions will cause a sharp increase in unemployment
and a swift and deep contraction in economic activity. Financial markets will likely remain
volatile over the near term but are optimistic that large-scale global monetary and fiscal stimulus
programs will help mitigate the longer -term impact of the pandemic. The Fed has also taken a
wide range of aggressive actions to help stabilize and provide liquidity to the financial markets.
The Fed has lowered the fed funds target rate to a range of 0.0%-0.25% and said it will purchase
Treasury and agency mortgage -backed securities in any amount needed to support smooth
market functioning. City staff will continue to monitor interest rates as well as economic factors
in both the local as well as the national economy.

Fund into the General Fund to support on -going tree maintenance operations. In FY 2019-20,
and as part of the Mid -Year Financial Report, staff recommended and Council approved a $20
million transfer to the Capital Reserve to fund future capital projects. Immediately subsequent
to this transfer, the COVID-19 pandemic sparked unprecedented uncertainty and as part of the

General Fund Expenditures
Estimates for the FY 2020-21 General Fund expenditures are based upon anticipated personnel
and non -personnel cost increases. This year, department budgets reflect a base budget with
justified ongoing expenses, accounting for changes in personnel costs and any other
anticipated/known increased costs in FY 2020-21. In addition, most budgets were given additional
funds for any unexpected expenditures that are accounted for in the contingency account, which
were reduced by 50% in FY 2020-21. Lastly, per the City's Reserve policy, an unassigned General
Fund balance above the $500,000 maximum balance will be transferred to the Capital Fund for
future capital and infrastructure projects, after year-end close and as part of the mid -year budget.
Given the uncertainty of the economy due to COVID-19 and to avoid the need to eliminate critical
programs and services, Contingency accounts were cut in half, Material costs are anticipated to
be reduced by 10%, Contract Services may be reduced by one million dollars, and Salaries and
Benefits savings of $800,000 would occur through attrition. Additionally, financial updates would
be provided on a quarterly basis as necessary to effectively and proactively manage the City's
finances as the results of the pandemic continue to unfold.
As shown in the chart on the next page, FY 2020-21 expenditures are estimated at $80.5 million,
which represents a 1% increase compared to the adopted budget from the prior year. This budget
reflects an increase in Employee Compensation and Benefits due to negotiated salary and benefit
changes. There is also an increase in Materials due to anticipated/known increased costs across
all programs, primarily attributed to an increase in software expenses, fuel charges and water
service charges in FY 2020-21. Additionally, there is an increase in Contract Services primarily
attributed to an increase in General Service Agreement for annual increases to the City's Law
Enforcement contract with Santa Clara County Sheriff as per the agreement. These increases are
offset by a decrease in Capital Outlay and Special Projects due to completion of previously funded
special projects and costs of project scope and costs differing from year to year.

Personnel Costs
Personnel costs total $29.2 million in FY 2020-21, comprising 36% of General Fund expenditures.
These costs are made up of salaries and compensation for benefitted and part-time staff (70%),
retirement benefits (18%), and other fringe benefits (12%), including health coverage. With the
economic uncertainty due to COVID-19 and to avoid the need to eliminate critical programs and
services, personnel savings through attrition is planned and staff anticipate approximately
$800,000 in savings.
Costs were calculated by taking an extract of payroll system information. This individual
position -level information was then reviewed, corrected, and updated by each department to
include current vacancies and filled positions, accurate salary step status, as well as any position
reallocations. Also, all categories of benefit costs in the coming year were projected. The most
recent retirement plan and health plan information for each position was also updated from the
payroll system. Not included in personnel costs, is the ongoing contribution for retiree healthcare
which is included in the transfers category. Costs in salary and benefits are up primarily due to
equity adjustments and negotiated salary and benefit changes.
Ca1PERS retirement rates are projected to increase 14.2%, as per the most recent actuarial
valuation report from Ca1PERS. In addition, the Ca1PERS discount rate is projected to remain at
7% as the Ca1PERS board has not made any additional changes since December 2017. Future
actuarial assumptions project changes to the discount rate and these projections are reflected in
the General Fund forecast section of the budget.
A total of 203.75 FTEs are budgeted in FY 2020-21, up from 202.75 in FY 2019-20. The increase of
1.0 FTEs represents a 0.5% increase in staffing. There are no additional positions requested for FY
2020-21. The change in positions is summarized below:
Although no new positions are being requested in FY 2020-21, the City Council adopted the
conversion of the Administrative Services Department's limited term Senior Management
Analyst to permanent effective July 1, 2020.
Non -Personnel
Non -personnel costs total $41.4 million in FY 2020-21, comprising 51% of General Fund budgeted
appropriations. These costs are primarily made up of Contract Services (27%), Cost Allocation
charges (13%), Materials (8%), Capital Outlays and Special Projects (2%) and Contingencies (1%).
Costs were developed from the base budget created in FY 2019-20 with justified ongoing expenses
124
Table of Contents
and adjustments for any other anticipated/known increased costs in FY 2020-21. One-time
projects were moved to a separate category in FY 2013-14 to ensure that expenditure trends reflect
ongoing expenditure needs. In FY 2017-18, a concerted effort was made to differentiate costs
related to special projects and capital outlays that are required to be depreciated. A special
projects series was created in the contracts section of accounts for any new special projects going
forward.
With the economic uncertainty due to COVID-19 and to avoid the need to eliminate critical
programs and services, Material costs are anticipated to be reduced by 10% and Contract Services
are expected to be reduced by one million dollars. Additionally, in FY 2020-21, program
contingencies were reduced from 5% of budgeted General Fund materials and contract services
to 2.5%. Program contingencies have been allocated proportionately among operating programs
based on each program's share of General Fund budget for materials and contract services. The
City Manager Contingency is a second level of contingency established for unexpected
expenditures that may occur over the program contingency. In FY 2020-21, City Manager
contingencies were also reduced from 5% of budgeted General Fund materials and contract
services to 2.5%. This brings total contingencies for the General Fund to 5% of budgeted materials
and contract services. This percentage is consistent with best practices adopted by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) which recommended 5-15% contingency.
Program contingency budgets may be used to cover unanticipated program expenses at the
department's discretion, while use of the City Manager Contingency will require City Manager
approval. The Sheriff's and City Attorney services contracts are excluded from the contingency
calculation.
General Fund Transfers
Transfers out represent transfers of monies out of the General Fund to various other funds. These
transfers provide resources to the receiving fund to support operating and capital project costs.
As part of the annual budget process, each fund's beginning fund balance, estimated revenues,
and appropriations are considered to estimate the ending fund balance for the respective fiscal
year. The operating subsidies from the General Fund are calculated by assuming each respective
fund will end the fiscal year with approximately 15% of current year appropriations. For FY 2020-
21, budgets have been established for the following transfers.

General Fund Fund Balance
As prescribed by GASB Statement No. 54, governmental funds report fund balance in
classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on
the specific purposes for which amounts in the funds can be spent. Fund balances for
governmental funds are made up of the following:
Nonspendable Fund Balance — includes amounts that are (a) not in spendable form, or (b)
legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The "not in spendable form"
criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for example: prepaid
items, property held for resale and long-term notes receivable.
Restricted Fund Balance — includes amounts that can be spent only for the specific
purposes stipulated by external resource providers, constitutionally or through enabling
legislation. Restrictions may effectively be changed or lifted only with the consent of
resource providers.
Committed Fund Balance — includes amounts that can only be used for the specific
purposes determined by a formal action of the City's highest level of decision -making
authority, the City Council. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the City
taking the same formal action (resolution) that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned Fund Balance — comprises amounts intended to be used by the City for specific
purposes that are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by the City Council
or official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be
used for specific purposes. Through the adopted budget, the City Council establishes
assigned fund balance policy levels and also sets the means and priority for the City
Manager to fund these levels.
126
Table of Contents
Unassigned Fund Balance - is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes
all amounts not contained in the other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically
available for any purpose.
In circumstances when an expenditure may be made for which amounts are available in multiple
fund balance classifications, the fund balance in General Fund will generally be used in the order
of restricted, unassigned, and then assigned reserves. In other governmental funds, the order will
generally be restricted and then assigned.

All Funds Summary
This section provides information on the FY 2020-21 Special Revenue, Debt Service, Capital
Project, Enterprise and Internal Service Funds budgets including, expenditure and revenue
highlights, transfers to other funds, reserve funds and the financial forecast.
Revenue Estimates
Estimates for FY 2020-21 fund balance and individual revenue accounts are based upon a
careful examination of the collection history and patterns as they relate to such factors as
seasonality and performance in the economic environment that the City is most likely to
encounter in the coming year. Each source of revenue can be influenced by external (outside of
the City's control) and/or internal factors. The FY 2020-21 revenue estimates are built on the
assumption that the economy will experience conservative growth. Depending on the extent of
COVID-19's impacts on the Special Revenue Funds' restricted revenue sources, additional
adjustment may be brought to City Council on a quarterly basis as necessary and appropriate.
Special Revenue Funds
Special Revenue Funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally
restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. Special Revenue Funds include the Park
Dedication, Transportation, Storm Drain, and Environmental Management/Clean Creeks funds.
Revenue
Revenue sources for special revenue funds are summarized in the table below and discussed in

Total Revenue Sources $14,464,645 $11,941,203 $12,026,210
Revenues are projected to remain relatively flat over the previous fiscal year. This is largely due
to an increase in transfers into the Transportation Fund and housing mitigation taxes offset with
declines in non -discretionary revenue sources. While COVID-19 will have an effect on these
restricted revenue sources, the City does not anticipate significant declines beyond the fourth
quarter of FY 19-20. As the City moves forward and the COVID-19 situation continues to

evolve, City staff will bring forward adjustments to City Council on a regular basis and as
needed.

Revenue is projected to decrease by $2.4 million, primarily driven by anticipated decreases in
charges for services due to COVID-19 impacts and a reduction in the amount of transfers in
from the General Fund. As part of the budget process, each fund is evaluated to identify funds
that are bringing in less revenue than they are expending and require the use of fund balance or
a subsidy from the General Fund. The extent of the financial impacts related to COVID-19 are
difficult to estimate for a full budgeted year. Although revenues are estimated to decrease, this
is further mitigated by a reduction in spending as explained below.

reduction in special project charges, a reduction in the City's Lifetime Tennis contract, as well as
a significant reduction cost allocation charges for changes in methodology. Additionally,
contingencies have been reduced by fifty percent (50%) in an effort to mitigate future impacts
from COVID-19.
Retained Earnings
Enterprise funds carry retained earning instead of fund balance. Retained earnings are
calculated by taking the beginning balance and then adding the difference between revenue and
expenditures to arrive at the ending retained earnings. However, some of these resources are
not liquid and represent capital assets. These monies are generally accumulated to support
capital replacement and/or expansion needs.

5-Year and 20-Year General Fund Forecast
Overview
The City has continued to develop medium -term (5-year) and long-term (20-year) forecasts as
part of the budget process. While long-term projections are inherently less reliable than short-
term projections, they can help detect structural budget issues that can be mitigated if identified
early. As shown in the following chart, in the next 20 years, the City's projections show increasing
operating deficits beginning in FY 2027-28 due to revenues growing at a slower rate than
expenditures.

Revenues -Expenditures
Revenue growth is primarily driven by sales, property, and transient occupancy taxes. Revenue
growth will be slower than in the past due to the completion of large-scale development projects,
such as Main Street and Apple Park, in the City. FY 2020-21 will experience significant declines
in sales tax ($4.7 million or 18%) and transient occupancy tax ($2.1 million or 22%) due to COVID-
19 impacts. Property tax is not anticipated to be affected by COVID-19 in FY 2020-21 due to the
timing of assessed market valuations; however, the City anticipates a flattening of the property
tax revenues in FY 2021-22.

As the City moves forward through the COVID-19 pandemic and as more data becomes available,
staff will bring forth updates and adjustments on a regular basis as necessary.
Expenditure growth is primarily driven by increases in pension liability costs and the City's Law
Enforcement contract with the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office. To mitigate the impacts of
COVID-19, the City is taking steps to reduce expenditures by:
• phasing in an increase of vacant staff positions from five (5) to twenty (20) within
a three-year period, which will result in up to $3.2 million in annual savings,
• reducing contingencies by 50% ($850,000),
• reducing materials by 10% ($670,000),
• reducing contract services by $1 million, and
• reducing special projects by $500,000.
Since revenues are growing at a slower pace than expenditures, annual operating deficits are
projected to increase, as shown in the following chart.

Although it is difficult to estimate the full -impacts of COVID-19 into the near and long-term, the
City's fiscal foundation remains strong. With the General Fund's Economic Uncertainty Reserve
intact and a healthy unassigned fund balance, the City is poised to withstand the impacts of
COVID-19 into the future.

Forecast Methodology
The financial forecast is a planning tool that helps the City identify important trends and
anticipate the long-term consequences of budget decisions. The forecast is instrumental in
modeling the effects of retirement costs, employee compensation, and revenues on the City's
budget.
The forecast is not a plan, but a model based on cost and revenue assumptions that are updated
regularly as new information becomes available. Of these components, cost projections, which
are based on known costs, are relatively reliable. Revenue forecasts, on the other hand, are based
on assumptions related to future economic conditions, which are fraught with uncertainty.
Economic forecasts change frequently and demonstrate the difficulties of committing to a
particular prediction of the future. For this reason, the forecast is updated regularly.
While economic conditions are the primary drivers for economically sensitive revenues such as
sales tax and property tax, performance is primarily driven by other factors for non -economically
sensitive categories such as the utility user tax and franchise fees. These revenue categories are
more heavily impacted by utility rate changes, energy prices, and consumption levels. Collections
from local, state, and federal agencies are primarily driven by grant and reimbursement funding
available from these agencies. As a result, these revenues experience no significant net gain or
loss during economic expansions or slowdowns. All revenue projections are based upon a careful
examination of the collection history and patterns as they relate to seasonality and the economic
environment the City is most likely to encounter in the future. Potential COVID-19 impacts were
also considered in determining the most reasonable estimated figures.
A discussion of both the national and local economic outlooks used to develop the revenue
estimates for the FY 2020-21 forecast is included below. To develop the revenue forecasts, the City
reviewed national, state, and regional economic forecasts from multiple sources including the
Congressional Budget Office, California's Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO), and economist
Steven Levy of the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy (CCSCE). To develop
the sales tax, property tax, and transient occupancy tax (TOT) revenue projections, the City
worked with HdL Companies, a tax consultant. In February 2019, the City began working with
UFI (Urban Futures, Inc.), a financial advisory and consulting firm, to:
• review, update, and enhance the City's baseline financial forecast;
• evaluate fiscal strategies including potential local revenue measures;
• develop capital financing options, structures and estimates for identified projects; and
• prepare analysis of city charter costs/benefits related to fiscal activities.
This forecast includes the updates and enhancements that UFI has made to the City's baseline
financial forecast.

National Economic Outlook
Through the fourth quarter of 2019, the U.S. economy continued to show steady growth. U.S.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) increased by 2.1% in 2019 according to the Bureau of Economic
Analysis, compared with an increase of 2.2% in 2018. The increase in real GDP in 2019 primarily
reflected positive contributions from personal consumption, exports, residential fixed
investment, federal government spending, and state and local government spending that were
partly offset by negative contributions from private inventory investment and nonresidential
fixed investment.
Through the first quarter of 2020, financial markets have experienced significant turbulence,
driven by a high level of uncertainty about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global
economy. There are still many unknowns about the coronavirus including how widespread it
will become, how long it will take to contain the virus, and the actual impact on economic activity.
During this period of uncertainty, staff believe continued increases in unemployment and deep
contractions in overall economic activity will be experienced. Financial markets will likely remain
volatile over the near term, though large-scale global monetary and fiscal stimulus programs will
assist in mitigating the longer -term impact of the pandemic.
As we move forward through the pandemic and more information becomes available, staff will
bring forward updates and adjustments to City Council on a regular basis as necessary.
Cupertino Economic Outlook
Despite strong economic performance continuing in Silicon Valley and Cupertino pre-COVID,
data from the State of California Employment Development Department indicates significant
impacts as a result of the virus.
Due to the timing of property appraisals entering the assessor's role, the City does not anticipate
significant impacts to property tax revenues in FY 2020-21. When property values are appraised
again in January 2021 and are included in the FY 2021-22 roll, the City will expect to see adverse
impacts resulting from COVID-19. Construction activity, although strong in previous years, will
continue to flatten out as development projects, particularly Apple Park, are completed. Given
the level of volatility surrounding COVID-19 and the uncertainty of recovery time, it is difficult
to estimate the timing of significant projects that could have a positive impact on the City's
general revenue bases.

Table of Contents
Revenues
The City's top three revenue sources continue to be property tax, sales tax, and transient
occupancy tax (TOT). While this will continue to be true, the City will not see the same level of
revenue as in recent years.
As shown in the chart below, General Fund revenues are expected to decrease from $92.1 million
in FY 2019-20 to $79.1 million in FY 2020-21 and increase each year in the forecast. Sales tax and
transient occupancy tax are projected to experience significant declines in FY 2020-21 due to
COVID-19. Property tax is not anticipated to be affected by COVID-19 in FY 2020-21 due to the
timing of assessed market valuations; however, the City anticipates a flattening of property tax
revenues in FY 2021-22.Other revenue sources consider assumptions ranging from no growth to
conservative growth.

5-Year Sales Tax Forecast
2019.20 2020-21 2022.22 2022.2a 2023.24 2024.25
In FY 2020-21, sales tax is projected to
experience a significant decrease due to
COVID-19. Sales tax revenue projections
have been reduced by 18% ($4.7M) from
original forecasts due to COVID-19. Sales
tax is assumed to return to 90% of normal
across industry groups in FY 2021-22.
Sales tax is projected to grow by an
average annual growth rate of 2.20% in
the forecast. Conservative forecasts were
used for business and industry, general
consumer goods, restaurants and hotels,
and state and county pools.
Business -to -business (B2B) revenue is the largest portion of the City's sales tax base, so the City's
sales tax revenue is sensitive to economic forces. In particular, the City's two largest sales tax
sources —both technology companies —account for a large portion of the City's total sales tax

Table of Contents
base. Sales tax revenue is reported two quarters in arrears thus providing the City with about six
months to react if this revenue source starts to decline.
Given the volatility of B2B revenue, which accounts for the majority of the City's sales tax
revenue, a key goal of the City's long-term fiscal strategic plan is to diversify its sales tax base by
promoting the general retail and food product sectors. Recently completed development projects
such as Nineteen800 and Main Street are expected to boost retail sales and reduce the City's
reliance on 13213 revenue.

lower growth rate to account for the fact
that no major development projects are expected in the City. The reduction in development
activity will reduce the City's property tax growth in the future. Major development projects,
such as Main Street and Apple Park, were a significant contributor to the historical growth in
property tax revenues.

5-Year Transient OccupancyTax Forecast
2019.20 2020-21 2022.22 2022.23 2023.24 2024-25
In FY 2019-20 and FY 2020-21, transient
occupancy tax (TOT) revenues are
expected to experience a significant
decrease due to COVID-19. FY 2020-21
TOT revenue projections have been
reduced by 25% ($2.5M) from original
forecasts due to COVID-19-related hotel
closures that began in mid -March 2020.
This forecast assumes that the hotel
closures continue through September
2020, an effective loss of one full quarter
(July 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020) of
TOT revenue.
In the forecast, TOT is projected to increase at an average annual growth rate of 4.4%. The City
used a moderate forecast based on historical tax collections. This moderate forecast assumes
slower growth compared to historical trends given that no additional hotels are expected to open
after 2020. The De Anza Hotel and Cupertino Village Hotel are not included in the forecast as
they have not been permitted yet.
TOT revenues are impacted by the tax rate charged on hotels in the City, the occupancy rate of
the hotels, and the average daily room rates (ADR) of the hotels. TOT revenues are highly
correlated with B2B revenue, as TOT revenues in Cupertino are primarily driven by business
travel. While occupancy rates were previously at record levels, they have declined significantly
due to COVID-19. Given the large amount of business travel in the City, a decline in the economy
could continue to have a significant impact on this revenue source.

Expenditures
For FY 2020-21, the City developed a zero -base budget in which all expenses were justified. The
process started from a "zero base" and every function of the City was analyzed for its needs and
costs. The budget was then built around what was needed for the upcoming period, regardless
of the previous fiscal year's budget. This best practice resulted in base budget savings from the
prior year.
The forecast was developed based on actual expenditures in prior years, and then adjusted for
FY 2020-21 funding needs. The forecast also included the following factors: State and County CPI,
construction and development activity, and CAPERS Normal Cost and Unfunded Liability
projections. The forecast is adjusted to account for one-time changes and budget adjustments
throughout the year.
To mitigate the impacts of COVID-19, the City is taking steps to reduce expenditures by
increasing vacancy levels through attrition, reducing materials, reducing contract services,
reducing contingencies, and reducing the amount of special project and capital outlay spending.

As displayed in the chart above, General Fund expenditures are projected to decrease from $102.6
million in FY 2019-20 to $79.7 million in FY 2020-21. The main drivers of expenditure growth are
employee benefits and contract services due to rising retirement rates and Law Enforcement
costs. The following discussion focuses on the assumptions used for estimating each of the
expenditure categories in the General Fund Forecast.
Personnel Expenditures
Salaries
The forecast includes equity adjustments, cost of living increases, step increases, and known
benefit increases in retirement and health insurance. During FY 2018-19, the City negotiated new
labor agreements with its bargaining groups, CEA and OE3, as the previous labor agreements
were scheduled to expire on June 30, 2019. On July 16, 2019, City Council approved new contracts
for CEA, OE3, and Unrepresented employees. The contracts, which are effective from July 1, 2019
to June 30, 2022, include equity adjustments for positions that are below the median of the market
and cost of living adjustments (COLAs) for all positions.
Koff and Associates conducted a salary study to determine if equity adjustments were necessary.
If the base salary of a position was below median of the market, the position will receive an
adjustment, from 1% to 15%, until the base salary is aligned with the median of the market. The
adjustments will be phased in over the three-year agreement at a maximum of 5% per year.
The contracts also include cost of living adjustments according to the following schedule:
• 4.0% - effective the first full pay period in July 2019 following Council adoption,
• 3.5% - effective the first full pay period in July 2020, and
149
Table of Contents
• 3.0% - effective the first full pay period in July 2021.
Step increases are due to employees below Step 5 progressing to higher salary steps. Full-time
salaries are projected to grow at a rate of 2.5% per year, which is based on historical trends in step
increases. It is slightly lower than the presumed rate of growth by Ca1PERS. Part-time salaries are
forecasted to grow at a rate of 1.5% as they generally grow at a slower pace than full-time salaries.
To mitigate the effects of COVID-19, the City plans to increase vacancy levels through attrition.
The City will not fill unessential positions when they become vacant. The City plans to hold 5
positions vacant in FY 2020-21 and gradually increase to 20 positions vacant in FY 2023-24. This
strategy will save the City up to $800,000 in FY 2020-21 and up to $3.2 million per year starting in
FY 2023-24.
Health Benefits
In FY 2020-21, health benefits account for about 8% of all personnel costs in the General Fund,
mostly due to health insurance costs. The City pays employees a fixed amount for health and
dental insurance costs, as opposed to covering a percentage of premiums. In October 2016, City
Council approved labor contracts that resulted in significant increases to the City's health
insurance contributions. For the duration of a contract, cost increases in health and dental
premiums above the negotiated amounts are fully absorbed by employees. The City is currently
in negotiations with its bargaining groups, CEA and OE3.
While not factored into the forecast, there is uncertainty about the fate of the Affordable Care Act
(ACA). Rate increases have stabilized with the implementation of the ACA. Still looming is the
so-called "Cadillac Tax' which, beginning in 2022, will impose an excise tax for any employer -
sponsored health coverage whose value exceeds $10,200 per year for individuals and $27,500 for
families. A 40% excise tax will be imposed on the amount that exceeds the predetermined
thresholds. Most of the City's current health plans would fall under the definition of a Cadillac
plan, which could increase the City's cost of providing health benefits to employees. The City's
health care administrator, CAPERS, has given assurances that coverage plans will fall below the
Cadillac Tax threshold.
Retirement Benefits
Rising retirement costs are driving the increase in employee benefits. Cupertino provides
retirement benefits for its employees through the California Public Employee's Retirement
System (Ca1PERS).
In December 2016, the Ca1PERS Board of Administration lowered the discount rate from 7.5% to
7.0% with a three-year phase -in beginning in FY 2018-19. This change will result in significant
increases in retirement costs but was implemented to improve the financial stability of the
pension system. As a result of the discount rate reduction, the City's Ca1PERS costs are projected
to increase to $7.5 million in FY 2024-25 as shown in the table below.'

The City's retirement rates are based on a blend of all three tiers (2.7% @ 55, 2% @ 60, and 2% @
62). Although employees pay a different rate depending on their tier, the City's costs are the same
for all 3 tiers. The table below shows the current breakdown of City employees amongst the three
retirement tiers. The majority of employees in the City are currently covered under Tier 3. Savings
from the lower -cost Tier 2 and Tier 3 plans are not expected to be substantial for several years.

Other Benefits
The forecast assumes health insurance, dental insurance, and vision insurance increase at CPI.
No increases were forecasted for the following benefits: internet allowance, standby pay,
Employee Assistance Program, and Deferred Compensation. Rec Bucks are assumed to increase
at a 0.5% growth rate.
Non -Personnel Expenditures
Non -Personnel budgets were developed based on actual expenditures in prior years, and then
adjusted for FY 2020-21 funding needs. In addition, one-time projects have been excluded to
ensure that expenditure trends reflect ongoing expenditure needs. Contingency budgets are
assumed to be reduced by 50% over the prior year, as a cost -saving measure.
For the out -years of the forecast, a growth rate based on an average of State and County CPI is
assumed from the baseline. The average growth rate for State and County CPI is 3.00%. The CPI
estimates are based on the following forecasts:
• UCLA Anderson Forecast for the Nation and California and
• California Department of Transportation's California County -Level Economic Forecast.
Materials costs are forecasted to increase by CPI in the out -years of the forecast.
Contract Services costs are projected to grow by CPI in the out -years of the forecast with the
exception of the Law Enforcement contract with the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office. Increases
to the City's Law Enforcement costs are a primary driver in the City's expenditure growth. Law
151
Table of Contents
Enforcement costs are projected to grow by CPI plus 2%. The major increase in contracts is driven
by increases in Ca1PERS costs at the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office that will be passed on to
the City per the contract's terms.
Cost Allocation is projected to grow by 2.5% in the out -years. This estimate is conservative as
savings may materialize in department budgets that may drive these costs down.
Capital Outlays and Special Projects are projected to increase by CPI in the forecast. In the last
five years, the City has spent about $2 million per year in capital outlay and special project costs
excluding development projects that include pass through revenue.
Contingencies are projected to increase by CPI in the forecast. Contingencies for each program
have been cut in half to 2.5% whereas in prior years, contingency totals were 5% of the total
General Fund and 5% of Material and Contract budgets. The City has historically underspent in
this category and use of these funds would require pre -approval by the City Manager or his/her
designee.
Transfers represent the General Fund's contributions to other City funds to support debt
payments, pay retiree health costs, finance capital projects, replenish capital project reserves,
acquire new equipment, and subsidize enterprises and operations. With the implementation of
the full cost allocation plan in FY 2015-16, General Fund expenses have been shifted to other City
funds causing some of those funds' revenues to fall short of expenses and necessitating the use
of fund balances to cover expenses. The General Fund benefits in the near term with the cost shift,
however, after fund balances in those other funds are drawn down to minimum levels, and absent
aggressive revenue or cost actions in those other funds, General Fund subsidies are necessary to
maintain those fund balance minimums.
Projected General Fund subsidies to each fund are based on the following assumptions:
• Special Revenue Funds: increases at a rate of 2.12% per year;
• Debt Service Funds: 2012 COPS debt service schedule;
• Retiree Medical Fund: projected OPEB contribution schedule;
• Compensated Absences Fund: increases at a rate of 2.5% per year;
• Innovation and Technology Fund: increases at CPI per year;
• Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund: increases at CPI per year; and
• Enterprise Funds: increases at CPI per year.
In FY 2029-30, the City will finish paying off its debt for city facilities. Until FY 2029-30, the City
is scheduled to pay approximately $3.17 million per year in principal and interest on the City
Hall/Library, Wilson/Memorial Open Space and Library Certificates of Participation. These funds
are transferred from the City's General Fund to the City's Debt Service Funds.

Pension
CAPERS
The City provides a defined benefit pension to its employees through the California Public
Employees' Retirement System (Ca1PERS). Retirement benefits are calculated using a formula
based on an employee's age, earnings, and years of service. These are funded by a combination
of investment earnings (58%), employer contributions (29%), and employee contributions (13%).
Investment
Earnings
IE
Each year, Ca1PERS determines an employer' contributions based on actual investment returns
and actuarial assumptions including expected investment returns (discount rates), inflation rates,
salaries, retirement ages, and life expectancies.
Ca1PERS Discount Rate
The City's pension plan is sensitive to the discount rate assumption set by Ca1PERS. The discount
rate is the expected rate of return of the plan's assets over the long term. The discount rate will
depend on the plan's size, asset allocation, time horizon, and other considerations. From the
City's perspective, the discount rate is important as it is used to determine the City's annual
contributions to the plan, the plan's unfunded liability, and the plan's funded status.
The discount rate is important in assessing whether a plan has enough assets to meet its future
obligations. The discount rate must be realistic to allow the City to foresee funding issues that
may impact future operating budgets and future generations of retirees and plan members. If the
discount rate assumption is too high and investments earn less than expected, a funding shortfall
may result, requiring the City or Ca1PERS members to make greater contributions than expected.
Ca1PERS Investment Earnings
Since nearly 60% of retirement benefits are funded by investment earnings, the City's pension
plan is sensitive to the investment returns of the CAPERS fund. Investment returns affect how
much of the retirement benefits can be funded by investment earnings rather than by
contributions. If investment returns are lower than the discount rate, contributions must increase
to make up the difference. As a result, pension plans need accurate return assumptions to ensure
fiscal sustainability.

Contributiorjs
Currently, CAPERS assumes it will earn investment returns of 7% each year. As illustrated in the
following chart, over the last 20 years, Ca1PERS has earned investment returns below the 7%
assumption approximately half of the time, and individual fiscal year investment returns have
ranged between -24.0% and +21.7%. In particular, Ca1PERS earned negative investment returns
in 2001 and 2002 due to the dot-com crash and in 2008 and 2009 due to the Great Recession.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIAnnual Investment Return -Current Discount Rate
Note: Beginning in 2002, investment returns are reported as gross of fees.
For FY 2018-19, CAPERS earned an investment return of 6.7%. For FY 2019-20, CAPERS reported
a preliminary investment return of 4.7%, bringing the average investment return to 6.3% for a 5-

longer time horizons.

While the 10-year and 30-year investment return are above the 7% discount rate, the 5-year and
20-year investment return are below the 7% discount rate.
Ca1PERS Plan Status
As of the most recent actuarial valuation on June 30, 2018, the City's pension plan had assets of
$93.6 million and liabilities of $141.0 million, resulting in an unfunded liability of $47.5 million
and a funded ratio of 66.3%. The unfunded liability is the difference between assets and liabilities
while the funded ratio is the ratio of assets to liabilities.

68.1% 66.3%
A defined -benefit plan is considered adequately funded if its assets equal or exceed the value of
its future liabilities. When the funded ratio is lower than 100%, the plan has insufficient assets to
pay all future liabilities. Poor investment returns during the Great Recession significantly
decreased the plan's assets. In addition, enhanced benefits and actuarial assumption changes due
to increased life expectancies increased the plan's liabilities. These two factors increased the gap
between the plan's assets and liabilities, resulting in the overall funded status of the system falling
significantly. After a thorough analysis, Ca1PERS actuaries determined that the retirement system
was at significant risk of falling to dangerously low funded status levels under existing actuarial
policies.
Over the past few years, Ca1PERS has taken steps to improve the long-term financial
sustainability of the system. In December 2016, the Ca1PERS board voted to reduce the discount
rate, also known as the assumed rate of return for investments, from 7.5% to 7.0% over three years
from FY 2018-19 to FY 2020-21. In February 2018, the Ca1PERS board also voted to decrease the
amortization period for new pension liabilities from 30 years to 20 years effective July 1, 2019.
155
Table of Contents
While these changes will provide long-term benefits to the pension plan, they will also increase
the City's pension contributions.
Impacts of CAPERS Investment Returns
The current volatility in the financial markets is projected to have significant impacts on the City's
pension costs. Since FY 2019-20 investment returns are reported as of June 30, 2020, they reflect
both the bull market in the first half of the fiscal year and the COVID-19-related volatility in the
second half.
Ca1PERS assumes it will earn investment returns of 7% each year. If the investment return for FY
2019-20 is below the 7% discount rate, the City's required pension contributions will increase to
make up for the difference. Due to the timing of actuarial valuations, the annual investment
return for FY 2019-20 will affect the City's pension contributions starting in FY 2022-23. The
contribution increase will be amortized over 20 years and phased in over 5 years.
If the FY 2019-20 investment return is lower than the 7% discount rate by 1 percentage point, the
City's pension contributions increase by up to $0.13 million per year. Since the FY 2019-20
investment return is 4.7%, the City's pension plan experiences a 2.3% (7% - 4.7%) investment loss.
As a result, the City's pension contributions are estimated to increase according to the following
schedule:
FY 2022-23
$0.06 million
FY 2023-24
$0.12 million
FY 2024-25
$0.18 million
FY 2025-26
$0.24 million
FY 2026-27 to FY 2041-42
$0.30 million
The impact will be $0.06 million in FY 2022-23 and will ramp up to $0.30 million in FY 2026-27,
continuing until FY 2041-42.
Impacts of CAPERS Discount Rate Changes
While CAPERS currently uses a discount rate of 7%, market experts project lower returns for the
next several decades due to lower -than -historical interest rates and economic growth. The Pew
Research Center forecasts a long-term investment return of 6.4% while J.P. Morgan, and Wilshire
Associates forecast a long-term investment return of 6.5% for typical pension fund portfolios.
If the discount rate is less than 7%, the City's Ca1PERS contributions will increase. If Ca1PERS
lowers the discount rate by 0.5 percentage points, the City's contributions will increase by up to
$1.2 million per year in the City's forecast.
This analysis shows the potential contribution impacts if Ca1PERS were to lower the discount rate
based on lower expected investment returns.

Table of Contents
Section 115 Trust
A Section 115 Trust is a tax-exempt investment tool that allows local governments to pre -fund
pension and retiree health costs. Once contributions are placed into the trust, assets from the trust
can only be used for retirement plan purposes. Withdrawals may be made to either reimburse
the City for retirement system contributions or to directly pay Ca1PERS. The benefits of a Section
115 Trust include the following:
• Local control over assets: The City controls the contributions, withdrawals, investment
strategy, and risk level of assets in the Trust.
• Pension rate stabilization: Assets can be transferred to Ca1PERS at the City's discretion to
pay for Normal Cost or UAL contributions, and can be used to reduce or eliminate large
fluctuations in the City's pension costs.
• Potential for higher investment returns than General Fund: Investment requirements that
apply to the City's General Fund assets under Government Code 53601 are not applicable
to Trust assets.
• Diversification: Trust assets will be diversified from Ca1PERS investments.
City Strategies
Given that pension obligations are one of the City's largest financial obligations, the City has
taken proactive steps to reduce the impacts of pension cost volatility. In March 2018, the City
provided options to Council on address rising pension costs. In April 2018, the City presented a
long-term pension funding strategy to the Fiscal Strategic Plan Committee. In May 2018, the City
implemented a Pension Rate Stabilization Program (PRSP), also known as a Section 115 Trust, to
reduce the effect of pension rate volatility on the City's budget. The City contributed $8.0 million
in FY 2018-19 and $4.0 million in FY 2019-20, bringing total contributions to $12.0 million.
As a fiscal sustainability measure, the City funds the Section 115 Trust using a more conservative
discount rate of 6.5%. The City plans to accumulate sufficient funds in the Section 115 Trust to
fund the difference between a 6.5% and a 7% discount rate. To achieve this goal, the funding
strategy proposed $8.0 million in initial funding, along with additional funding of $10.0 million
over the first five years. By using a more conservative discount rate than Ca1PERS, the City is able
to allocate more towards pension funding each year than required by Ca1PERS.
Given this strategy and the $12 million currently set aside for pension funding, the City is in a
strong position to withstand the effects of pension cost increases. If CaIPERS investment returns
fall short of assumptions, the City will be better prepared for future pension cost increases. If the
discount rate is lowered in the future, which is a distinct possibility, the City will be better
prepared to absorb these costs.

It is anticipated that any unassigned fund balance over the $500,000 threshold will be transferred
to the Capital Reserve, the Ca1PERS Reserve, or the Section 115 Trust. In FY 2018-19, the City
adopted a Section 115 as part of a long-term strategy to improve the financial sustainability of the
City's pension system and reduce the effect of pension rate volatility on the City's operating
budget. The City will be able to use funds from the Section 115 Trust to offset unexpected
increases in retirement contributions. Funds in the Section 115 Trust are restricted and can only
be used to pay Ca1PERS or reimburse the City for pension contributions.

Budget -Balancing Strategies
Historically, the City's budget has been structurally sound with revenues exceeding expenditures
in most years. When revenues have exceeded expenditures, excess fund balance was transferred
to the Capital Reserve per the City's One Time Use and Reserve Policy. The current 5-year and
20-year forecasts anticipate operating deficits beginning in FY 2027-28. The operating deficits are
projected to increase as revenues grow at a slower pace than expenditures. As a result, the
following strategies may be used to assist in balancing the budget over the next 20 years.

Resources/Sustainability Element and its intersections with the CAP.
• Advise the City Council how to strategically accelerate Cupertino's progress towards sustainability
and recommend priorities to promote continued regional leadership in sustainability.
. Periodically review policies governing specific practices and programs, such as greenhouse gas
emissions reduction, water conservation, renewable energy, energy efficiency, materials management,
and urban forestry. Illustrative examples include the creation of infrastructure for low emissions
vehicles, installation of renewable energy or energy efficiency technologies, drafting of water
conservation or waste reduction policies, delivery of habitat restoration and conservation programs,
design and roll -out of pollution prevention campaigns, etc.
• Make recommendations regarding the allocation of funds for infrastructure and technology
improvements to elevate the operational performance of City facilities, businesses, educational
institutions, and homes by reducing costs, improving public health, and serving community needs.

Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $52,782 for the Sustainability Commission program. This
represents an increase of $14,831 (39.1%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
The increase is primarily due to an increase in salary and benefits to better reflect actual time spent in this
program. Increased costs in cost allocation are due to a change in allocation methodology.

iThe Video Division is responsible for producing videos for both city staff as well as the general Cupertino
public. Typically, dozens of video productions are completed every year. Video productions range in scope
from relatively simple 30-second public service announcements to major projects like CREST that require
more than two months of on -going field production, post -production editing, and a live awards program
telecast. This specific Workload Indicator clearly indicates that a large percentage of annual video projects
are unscheduled or unanticipated. The main reason is that video productions are oftentimes evaluated and
prioritized on the basis of their immediate organizational value, impact and/or newsworthiness. Oftentimes,
these unanticipated projects are identified and assigned with only a few days or weeks of advanced notice.
As such, there is an on -going need within the division for workflow and work schedule adaptability when it
comes to evaluating video productions and completing them on time and on budget. The measurements
here are tracked in the "milestones" document located in our City Channel documentation folder. The
milestones document is a comprehensive dataset of all the video division projects --both large and small --and
is maintained by the entire video staff. City meeting telecasts are not included in this particular dataset.
2Video staff is responsible for designing, managing, and maintaining the many audiovisual and broadcast
systems located within the organization. These include systems within the conference and multipurpose
rooms, office and huddle spaces, as well as the complex broadcast systems within the video control room at
Community Hall. Engineering projects differ from simple repairs, tasks, and modifications in that projects, as
defined, require a phased -in approach with advanced planning, design, budgeting, resource acquisition, and
implementation. Most engineering projects are scheduled well in advance; occasionally, however, video staff
may need to implement unanticipated projects if staff or council priorities require as such. The Workload
Indicator here measures the number of projects completed vs. the number of scheduled projects. These
measurements are tracked in the "engineering milestones" document located in our City Channel
documentation folder. This document is maintained by Pete Coglianese, who is the broadcast engineer for
the division.
3Video staff historically tracks viewership data within our primary online video platforms— YouTube and
220
Table of Contents
Granicus. We continue to see an upward trend in viewership of our videos which are used to promote city
meetings, city programs, and city services. Our target is to increase viewership by 5% annually. Both
YouTube and Granicus provide advanced reporting modules that allow us to accurately track the number of
views over a given date range. The numbers here indicate total views rather than total unique views. Other
online platforms were considered as part of this dataset; however, because we do not consistently post videos
to our other social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Nextdoor, those statistics were not
included as part of this specific performance measure. Similarly, we do have accurate viewership data for the
City Channel, our government access television channel, so that platform was excluded as well.

Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $801,351 for the Sustainability program. This represents
an increase of $245,688 (44.2%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.

of the State of California in response to SB100 and other legislation addressing greenhouse gas mitigation and
adapting to climate risks such as wildfire and droughts. The increase since the previous year's budget also
reflects a fully -staffed division as of August 2019, which has been under staffed during the last two fiscal
years.

Program Overview
In FY 2020-21, this program transferred from Innovation Technology to the City Manager's Office. Historical
data can be found under Budget Unit 100-31-305. The primary goal of the Video Division is to increase public
awareness, interest, understanding, and participation in the issues, programs, and services presented by the
City of Cupertino. The staff promotes City services and programs through its 24/7 government access channel,
radio station, digital signage network, City website, and numerous online video platforms. In addition, the
video staff provides multimedia production services and technical support for all City departments. Video
staff also oversees the design, maintenance, and engineering of the City's broadcast and audiovisual systems.

residents, includes full coverage of city meetings, community events, town hall forums, press
conferences, election coverage, and local speaker series, as well as educational programming and state
government affairs programming

Program Overview
The City Manager Contingency program was established to meet citywide unexpected expenses that may
occur during the year. In FY 2013-14, a Contingencies expenditure category was added to each General Fund
program to serve as a contingency for any unexpected expenditures that might occur during the year. In FY
2020-21, program contingencies were reduced from 5% of budgeted General Fund materials and contract
services to 2.5%. Program contingencies have been allocated proportionately among operating programs
based on each program's share of General Fund budget for materials and contract services. The City Manager
Contingency is a second level of contingency established for unexpected expenditures that may occur over the
program contingency. In FY 2020-21, City Manager contingencies were also reduced from 5% of budgeted
General Fund materials and contract services to 2.5%. This brings total contingencies for the General Fund to
5% of budgeted materials and contract services. This percentage is consistent with best practices adopted by
the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) which recommended 5-15% contingency. Program
contingency budgets may be used to cover unanticipated program expenses at the department's discretion,
while use of the City Manager Contingency will require City Manager approval. The Sheriff's and City
Attorney services contracts are excluded from the contingency calculation.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $551,827 for the City Manager Contingency program.
This represents an increase of $65,474 (13.5%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
City Manager contingencies were updated to 2.5% of budgeted General Fund materials and contract services.
This budget includes an additional $279,306 in contingencies for unforeseen Public Works maintenance and
repairs.

Program Overview
The Law Enforcement program provides law enforcement, emergency communications, School Resource
Officers, and the Youth Probation Program. Law enforcement services are provided by the Santa Clara
County Sheriff's Office, while communications services are provided by the Santa Clara County General
Services Administration. The County's Youth Probation Program, also managed by the Sheriff's Office, is
funded through a partnership with the Cupertino Union School District and the City of Cupertino. Other
services include general law enforcement (patrol), traffic enforcement and investigation, detective services,
and additional resources from specialized units.
The State allocates the Citizens Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant to cities and counties for front-line law
enforcement purposes. Funding is allocated proportionately based on population size with a minimum
allocation of $100,000 per jurisdiction. This grant will be used to partially offset the cost of a second School
Resource Officer that was added in the FY 2017 school year.
Service Objectives
• Protect life and property through innovative and progressive policing methods.
. Respond to Priority 1 emergency situations within an average of fewer than five minutes.
• Enforce the vehicle code with the goal of increasing traffic safety.

iThe GIS Division builds web applications for staff to use as a tool in their daily workflows. The web
application Property Info is a great example of this. Staff use it to review properties for development - select a
property see all the associated layers of data, and access any related laserfiche documents. Property info is the
main web mapping application staff use so we are constantly making improvements based on requests or new
advancements in web development, or available widgets. We also create a number of web applications for the
public https://www.cupertino.org/online-services/open-government-data/city-maps/web-maps-and-
applications everything from the service finder that give residents a one stop shop of all City services to the
CIP story map that give the public a visually appealing way to quickly interpret what capitol improvement
projects are scheduled this year, where the project is located, what the project entails, and current status.

2GIS receives requests from staff and sometimes Commissioners, Sheriffs office, City Council members... These
requests range from hard copy maps (ex. Update a zoning designation and print all new zoning maps) to
interactive web maps (ex. PW had a consultant evaluate a section of Regnart Rd and Chad asked us to create a
web map with the data point locations and associate photos), data request (ex. how many Trees were trimmed
this year), Data changes (ex. can I see this layer symbolized by status and added to property info application),
crystal report requests (ex. fleet wants a report that shows how many times each vehicle has a repair work
order based on a dynamic timeframe), to application modifications (ex. the Tree Division is tasked with
mediating a tree virus issue and they would like a new work order type so they can track the problem over
time or Planning had us create a layer for private trees and then add it to the Property info application.)
Evaluating staff use of an application and implementing ways to streamline that workflow. Reduce the
number of steps to performing a task by configuring/coding an application in a way that eliminates
redundancies. We are also asked to configure GIS for enterprise applications such as Accela and ActiveNet.

Service Objectives
• Deliver business solutions that meet customer requirements and integrate within the City's application
framework.
• Assist departments in developing streamlined and effective business processes that are easy to
understand and translate into existing and new enterprise applications.
• Work closely with City staff and members of the community to ensure that the City's enterprise
applications are relevant and provide value to all the stakeholders.
. Collaborate with various City departments to determine that the City's enterprise applications meet the
functional requirements and long-term application implementation strategy of the organization.

Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $1,981,299 for the Applications program. This represents
an increase of $37,648 (1.9%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
The increase is primarily due to increases in compensation, benefits, and materials expenses. This is offset by
a decrease in cost allocation expenses. The increase in compensation and benefits expenses is due to
negotiated increases. The increase in materials expenses is related to enhancing ProjectDox software which is
283
Table of Contents
utilized for electronic plan submission and review. The decrease in cost allocation charges is due to a change
in methodology for allocating Internal Service Fund charges to other Departments.
ProjectDox improves the permitting process, making it fast and easy to submit requests, plan check review
documents and drawings, and process corrections - all visible to the customer. IT is proposing to move the
current on-prem application to cloud based enterprise SaaS. The move allows for increased functionality for
Building and provides additional workflows for Planning and Public Works. Additionally, this change aligns
with the IT Strategic Plan in transitioning from on-prem to the cloud based applications.

Program Overview
The IT Infrastructure Division is responsible for technology -related expenses for the citywide management of
information technology services. The Infrastructure Manager and staff are responsible for computer helpdesk,
network availability, and performance, security and compliance, incident response, disaster recovery and
business continuity, project management of implementations and upgrades, purchasing and inventory
control, technical training, and maintenance of systems. Infrastructure is also tasked with ensuring that the
City continues to follow best practices in technology adoption and security practices.
Service Objectives
• Provide and continuously improve helpdesk support as this function is often the face of IT that staff
interacts with on a daily basis.
• Maintain standards and procedures for the replacement, support, and maintenance of all City -owned
computing devices, printers, networks, peripherals and systems defined by City policy.
. Continue innovation and outreach to ensure the City follows best IT practices relating to equipment,
policy, and security practices.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $2,076,714 for the Infrastructure program. This
represents a decrease of $191,118 (-8.4%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in cost allocation expenses. This is offset by increases to
compensation, benefits, and materials expenses. The increase to compensation and benefits expenses is due to
negotiated increases. The increase to materials expenses is due to new projects such as the Blackberry Farm
Zoom Room. The decrease in cost allocation charges is due to a change in methodology for allocating Internal
Service Fund charges to other Departments.

In FY 2020-21, Infrastructure plans to implement Al remediation tools. Cyber intrusion, e.g., Ransomware,
continues to negatively impact both public and private entities. Each year reports of cities falling victim to
ransomware and the significant cost in dollars, downtime and customer service is of significant concern.
Recently the financial impact to individual cities were in the millions of dollars. The Al will learn the City's
network patterns and isolate patterns that deviate outside the norm, allowing the City to respond immediately
to cyber intrusion. Ongoing costs will be $50,000 per year if approved.
A data center facility battery for City Hall is also planned. Due to more stringent air quality regulations,
replacing the generator is not viable with the current state of the City Hall building, which is currently near
maximum critical loads. In the event a power event damages critical infrastructure due to generator
malfunction or brownout, the City risks extended downtime due to equipment damage. An extended run-time
backup battery will ensure proper operation and protection of critical business equipment.

Program Overview
The Geographic Information Systems (GIS) program captures, manages, analyzes, and displays all forms of
geographically referenced information for the City of Cupertino. Through maps, reports, dashboards, and
charts we provide ways to view, understand, question, interpret, and visualize, our City in ways that reveal
relationships, patterns, and trends. The GIS Program works to help our staff, citizens, business, and
development communities answer questions and solve problems by looking at our data in a way that is
quickly understood and easily shared — on a map!
Service Objectives
• Cupertino GIS works to provide and support state-of-the-art GIS mapping services and applications in
the rapidly evolving and expanding field of geospatial technology.
• Create, collect, maintain, and distribute high quality, up-to-date, and complete geospatial data.
• Ensure that the City's GIS systems and data are available for day-to-day City and regional purposes.
. Share the City's GIS data and services as widely as possible.
• Raise the awareness of GIS.
. Integrate spatial technology into Cupertino's business processes and applications.
• Support emergency planning, response, and recovery.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $1,081,259 for the GIS program. This represents a
decrease of $14,834 (-1.4%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
The budget is relatively unchanged from the prior fiscal year. Increases in salaries and benefits are due to
negotiated increases. This is offset by decreases in cost allocation expenses. The decrease in cost allocation
charges is due to a change in methodology for allocating Internal Service Fund charges to other Departments.
In FY 2020-21, GIS plans to pilot different sensor programs. ESRI IOT for Analytics is a SaaS solution that
enables users to ingest, visualize, and analyze spatial big data real-time to gain insights that allow for analysis
and data driven action. This application will allow the City to categorize and make sense of the data generated
289
Table of Contents
from sensors. This is the underlying software for all IOT pilot programs adopted for the FY 2020-21 Work
Program. GIS also plans to implement telematics for City vehicles. Telematics will enable fleet managers to
download engine performance, and vehicle operations data for City vehicles. This data will help improve
preventative maintenance, operator safety, fuel efficiency, vehicle utilization, and reduce vehicle downtime.

Program Overview
The Community Development Code Enforcement program provides enforcement of various provisions of the
municipal code relating to nonconforming land use and building code compliance. These activities include
building without permits, unpermitted removal of protected trees, nonconforming accessory structures,
various use permit violations, private residential fence height/setback violations, and nonconforming signs.
Assistance is provided to Planning and Building Division staff in the resolution of different code violations
and land use concerns, which are contrary to the municipal code.
Service Objectives
• Respond to citizen, City department, or outside agency referrals within 48 hours.
. Provide services with an emphasis on community education and customer service.
• Enforce the codes in a fair, equitable, and objective manner.
Adopted Budget

represents a decrease of $14,754 (-15.1%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in cost allocation offset by an increase in negotiated salary and

Table of Contents
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $883,679 for the Public Works Administration program.
This represents a decrease of $51,762 (-5.5%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
This decrease is represented by an increase in negotiated staffing costs offset by decreases in materials,
contract services, and cost allocation charges. Most significantly, the Program budgeted $100,000 for a grant
management contractor in FY 19-20 that is not budgeted for FY 20-21. The increase in revenue is due to the
transfer of rental payments for the Blue Pheasant Restaurant. In prior years, the Blue Pheasant Restaurant's
Lease Agreement was managed by the Parks and Recreation Department and the generated revenue was
recorded in the Park Facilities program.

Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $1,700,225 for the Resource Recovery program. This
represents a decrease of $664,793 (-28.1%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
This decrease is due to staffing reallocations and decreases in contract services and special projects. The
greatest decrease is due to a special project in FY 19-20 for solid waste hauler RFP development that was not
budgeted for in FY 20-21.

Program Overview
The Non -Point Source program manages the City's compliance with its State -mandated Municipal Regional
Stormwater NPDES Permit; provides program and policy development and implementation of state -
mandated activities including complaint response and enforcement programs; conducts annual
interdepartmental staff training, scheduled business and construction site inspections and review of private
development plans to ensure compliance with low impact development (LID); and new Green Infrastructure
Plan development requirements. The program is responsible for calculating storm drain fees annually to
submit to the County for collection on property tax bills, writing an annual report to the Regional Water
Quality Control Board to verify and document the City's compliance with Clean Water Act mandates; and
engaging and educating the public via articles in the Cupertino Scene, webpage development, visits to
businesses and presentations at local schools, De Anza College and community events. Public participation
events include two or more annual volunteer creek cleanup days, a water quality monitoring day at
Blackberry Farm, Earth Day and various countywide collaborative events. Implementation and annual
progress assessment of the City's eight -year litter reduction plan are among the requirements of the City's
Non -Point Source program.
Service Objectives
• Oversee the City's compliance with the Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP 2.0) with regard
to water pollution prevention, erosion control, conserving water as a resource (e.g. infiltration rather
than runoff), and low impact development (LID) via the City's permit application process and
conditions of approval.
• Coordinate urban runoff pollution and erosion prevention activities with other departments, divisions,
and private businesses. Mandated activities include: catch basin cleaning; post -construction oversight
of permanent stormwater treatment measures installed at private new and redeveloped sites;
implementation of, and annual progress assessments for the eight -year litter reduction plan; oversight
of construction best management practices during private and public construction; inspection of
grease -generating and wet -waste food facilities and other businesses to prevent water -polluting
discharges; complaint response and investigation to protect water quality; and education of staff and
local businesses on best management practices for outdoor storage and activities.

Program Overview
This program maintains streets to a standard that balances preventative maintenance with stop -gap measures
while minimizing liability.
Service Objectives
• Perform preventative maintenance activities of fog seal and crack fill.
• Perform stop -gap maintenance of arterial, collector and residential streets.
. Oversee and manage contracted pavement maintenance projects.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $2,247,004 for the Street Pavement Maintenance
program. This represents a decrease of $1,659,198 (42.5%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
Increases in the Program are primarily due to staffing increases to better reflect actual time spent on activities
in this budget and cost allocation adjustments. Decreases in revenue are due to one-time grant and measure
related revenues that were awarded in FY 19-20 that are not budgeted for FY 20-21. Additionally, special
projects are decreasing $2 million over FY 19-20 in an effort to reduce costs. Unspent FY 19-20 appropriations
will be carried over and used for pavement maintenance activities in FY 20-21.

Program Overview
The Sheriff Work Program supplements existing Service Center staffing with individuals in a sentencing
alternative program. Participants of the program perform manual labor type duties. The work performed by
this program reduces the number of full-time maintenance workers required.
Service Objectives
• Efficiently administer and schedule the Sheriff Work Program for a variety of non -skilled activities,
including trash pick-up, weed control, right-of-way maintenance and sandbag filling.
• Offset manual work currently performed by skilled labor so as to increase overall productivity at the
Service Center.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $565,383 for the Sheriff Work Program program. This
represents an increase of $115,591 (25.7%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.
Increases in this budget are primarily due to changes in methodology for calculating IT and vehicle cost
allocation charges.

Program Overview
Transfers represent transfers of monies between various funds. These transfers provide subsidies and
resources and to the receiving fund to support operating, debt service, and capital project costs. General Fund
subsidies to other funds and funding of capital projects are included in transfers.
Service Objectives
Transfers out are evaluated each year to ensure funds outside of the General Fund remain with a minimum
fund balance of 15% of budgeted operating expenses. These transfers are normally for Special Revenue and
Enterprise funds requiring a subsidy due to revenues falling short of full program costs. In addition, the City
has reoccurring transfers to fund the total budget costs associated with Annual Debt Payment, Compensated
Absences, and Retiree Health.
Adopted Budget
On June 16, 2020, City Council approved a budget of $9,948,689 for the General Fund Transfers Out program.
This represents a decrease of $590,868 (-5.6%) from the FY 2019-20 Adopted Budget.

Program Overview
The Debt Service Program provides for the payment of principal and interest and associated administrative
costs incurred with the issuance of debt instruments for the City's Public Facilities Corporation. The budget
funds the Corporation's annual payment of principal and interest on the City Hall/Library, Wilson/Memorial
Open Space and Library Certificates of Participation (COP) that will be paid off by the year 2030.
Service Objectives
The majority of the borrowings occurred in early 1990 to acquire additional park real estate and expand
community facilities. A breakdown of the capital acquisitions follows:
• Increased 90 acres of park real estate to 190 acres, a 111% increase
. Increased 26,031 sq ft of recreation building space to 84,460 sq ft, a 224% increase
Specific purchases included:
• Blackberry Farm - $18 million, voter -approved debt;
• Creekside Park - $12 million voter -approved debt;
• Sports Center - $8 million;
. Quinlan Community Center, including park real estate - $6.1 million;
• Wilson Park and improvements - $5.6 million;
• Jollyman Park development - $1 million;
• City Hall renovation/improvements - $1.7 million;
• Library renovation/improvements - $1.7 million;
. New library/community center - $10 million.
In May 2012, the Corporation refinanced its $44 million in outstanding debt to lower the interest rate and save
approximately $350,000 per year in debt payments.

Program Overview
The recruitment and hiring of top quality department heads are essential to the efficient operation of the City.
Housing costs in Silicon Valley tend to act as a disincentive to persons relocating to the area, and therefore, as
an obstacle to the recruitment, hiring, and retention of such top quality personnel. To assist in this end, the
Council adopted the housing assistance program for department heads.
Service Objectives
The housing assistance program for department heads provides housing loans for their primary residence at
interest rates indexed with the 11th District cost of funds with an optional deferred interest feature for the first
five years. There is assistance with half of the closing costs. The City may assist in the purchase by acquiring
up to thirty percent of the equity share in the residence.
Adopted Budget
There is no budget requested for this program.
