DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND Measure M2 Funds through the SMP The City entered into an agreement with Orange Elderly Services (OES) to administer the Senior Transportation Program utilizing Measure M2 sales tax revenue funds, received directly from OCTA through the SMP. The City budgets for approximately $110,000 in annual Measure M2 revenues and expenditures for this program. Any additional amount must be appropriated through City Council action and all funds are required to be spent within three years of receipt. In Fiscal Year 2015 -2016, the City received a total of $121,254.90 in revenue and interest, $11,254.90 over the budgeted amount. In Fiscal Year 2016 -2017, the City received a total of $124,454.56, $14,454.56 over the budgeted amount. Therefore, a total of $25,709.46 in SMP revenue ($24,806.26) and interest ($903.20) needs to be appropriated in order to spend the funds within the three -year time frame. ITEM 2 6/12/18 Sponsorship Donations The City's annual Partnership Campaign solicits donations to support citywide special events. Per the City's donation policy, single donations greater than $5,000 may only be accepted and appropriated by the City Council. Ricci Realty and Chapman University became "Orange Tree" partners for the 2018 Special Event Season and each provided a $10,000 sponsorship donation. The Department requests that a total of $20,000 be accepted and appropriated to help cover the costs of the City's annual special events and programs. Sports Field Maintenance and Renovation Reimbursement The Community Services Department developed a cooperative program with the user groups to fund annual maintenance and renovation of sports fields they use, based on significant wear that occurs as a result of that use. After each season, the City contracts for the renovation work to bring fields up to the City's standards. User groups reimburse the City based on a formula for use of multi -use fields, or actual amounts for work performed on a single -user field. This process allows for equitable contributions by user groups and helps the City avoid any potential liability issues that may arise from unauthorized contractors doing work on City property. The City has billed a total of $1,500 to three user groups for El Modena Park field renovations, and needs to appropriate this amount to the expenditure account. Community Garden Lease Revenue The City charges community members an annual lease of $75 per garden plot, to cover the cost of utilities, infrastructure and repairs. Lease revenue of $150, from March and April 2018, minus administrative costs of 8% of revenues ($12), totaling $138 needs to be appropriated for FYI 8.
