Scott Pettingell, finance director, summarized key revenue and expenditure results: Bradley Burns sales tax underperformed the budget with an approximate shortfall of $2.6 million, while Measure B local sales tax receipts exceeded the budget by about $200,000. Property tax and development‑related revenues came in stronger than expected and helped offset the sales tax shortfall. Pettingell said, “Overall, our general fund ended fiscal year 24 with a $15,900,000 surplus.”

City staff reported that much of the expenditure savings came from salary savings tied to vacant positions and deferred material and services spending; about $12.6 million in expenditure savings included encumbrances planned for the following year. The report shows staffing increased citywide by roughly 5% (about 36 positions) since fiscal year 2019. Departments with notable increases included fire (to staff a new station), parks, recreation and libraries (added operations and cultural‑arts staff), and administrative departments (finance, HR, communications).

The draft year‑end spending plan and transfers included several one‑time allocations and recommended moves: $4.0 million for parks/recreation/library projects (including $150,000 for Gibson Park courts improvements and $3.0 million for a West Side maintenance yard); $930,000 for police equipment (about $480,000 for body‑worn cameras and $450,000 for ballistic vests and related gear); a $1.5 million transfer to the fleet replacement fund; and transfers to reserves and trusts (a planned $4.6 million additional discretionary CalPERS payment that staff recommended deferring pending FY25 results; $1.5 million to the Section 115 pension trust; $1.5 million to the general fund capital reserve; and $1.8 million to the strategic improvement fund). Staff said the pension trust balance is forecast at about $22.5 million after the transfers.

Dennis Kaufman, assistant city manager and chief financial officer, explained that the “other expenditures” red indicator in the draft scorecard primarily reflected a one‑time $10 million transfer to the general fund capital reserve in fiscal year 2023 that was not repeated in fiscal year 2024. Kaufman and Pettingell also explained that a red indicator for police staffing resulted from a temporary administrative reclassification in which an interim authorized position was removed after internal recruitment; they said this did not reflect an ongoing reduction in officer staffing.

On pensions, staff noted the city’s CalPERS funded ratio is roughly 65 percent based on the most recent actuarial valuation and the total unfunded liability is about $56 million. City council has prioritized discretionary payments and the Section 115 trust as tools to reduce long‑term pension costs; staff reiterated that the planned $4.6 million discretionary payment was budgeted for FY24 but deferred because of softened sales tax results and current‑year revenue uncertainty. Kaufman said staff continues to monitor revenue monthly and will revisit the payment if FY25 results improve.

Committee members asked clarifying questions about Measure B’s permanence (staff said there is no expiration date), the application of the tax to certain auto‑mall transactions and out‑of‑state sellers, and recent staffing additions in police and parks. No committee action was required; the item was informational and staff will supply materials to the committee to support its draft report to council.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Local Sales Tax Oversight Committee Meeting of February 26, 2025 - City of Roseville, CA","oneSentenceSummary","City of Roseville staff reported on Feb. 26 that the general fund closed fiscal year 2023–24 with a $15.9 million surplus and that Measure B receipts modestly exceeded the adopted estimate while Bradley Burns sales tax underperformed.","taxTitle","Roseville, Placer County, California","taxId",3668,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6661116,"City attorney briefs Roseville oversight committee on Brown Act, AB 992 social media limits and Public Records Act",917,776000,1693000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2416936-3a8e6afa3ea03b793cf4a8659516df67&start=776&end=1693","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2416936-3a8e6afa3ea03b793cf4a8659516df67/thumbnail_776000.jpg","/articles/6661116/Roseville/Placer-County/California/City-attorney-briefs-Roseville-oversight-committee-on-Brown-Act-AB-992-social-media-limits-and-Public-Records-Act","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6661116-0c5ef11f8e94b1b774ec5e2efafefa8d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770445673&Signature=lBzX1CNo-mUB8ZO6teBtt0p1s5~ITCxCATR6I5Xx6oxGmq9sIf6AZed1yHIUZmKXTsmgpTpliD~JiNWKRkfF6yjm98bG1w8doRS3o7eJ2MmnW3ske~3kZLfMSsq2D~79kVWnFIs~LE-4tbyXA3IwJXgn9-zCd1oKzCUzH0MJgYhXqG-72ULYMsmyqxt4Q6XorpgJiuOaFlMD2JX7stkGF7FMPCj00Egqq5OXZ6ufJF1jHjdEP6ClTQHc8tEk4lrclrMGVy9s8SEboxT6ZvRjIT2NceeZWkYKcmk6flAmSPPPWsRG5qg6pfKA1KdVx9RnEgNeP0IPX2WlIbL6Y~JPiQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Joe Mandel, senior deputy city attorney for the City of Roseville, gave a refresher on the Brown Act and the California Public Records Act at the Local Sales Tax Citizens Oversight Committee meeting on Feb. 26.

Mandel told the committee the Brown Act “is named after the author of the bill, Ralph M. Brown,” and said its central goal is open government: “The public has the right to attend meetings,” he said. He explained that the committee is an oversight body created by the City Council following voter approval of Measure B and that the Brown Act applies because the committee is a standing, subsidiary body with continuing subject-matter jurisdiction.

Mandel reviewed required practices: post notices and agendas for regular meetings at least 72 hours in advance in publicly accessible locations, provide a brief description of each agenda item and allow public comment, and hold meetings within the city unless otherwise permitted by law. He emphasized the Brown Act’s meeting definition — “a congregation of a majority of the members at the same time and location” — noting that for a five-member committee a majority is three members.

Mandel also warned against serial communications and explained AB 992’s social media restriction: “AB 992 prohibits members of a legislative body from responding directly to any communication on social media,” including likes, comments and emoji reactions. He advised committee members that individual non‑deliberative communications that provide information or answer questions are permitted, but cautioned that emails and other business communications related to committee work are public records and may be subject to disclosure even if sent from a personal device. He closed by noting remedies for violations, including civil actions to invalidate actions not taken in substantial compliance with the Brown Act and possible criminal penalties in cases of intentional deprivation of the public’s rights.

The presentation was informational; committee members asked no follow-up questions. Mandel provided contact information for the City Attorney’s Office for Brown Act or Public Records Act questions.","Senior Deputy City Attorney Joe Mandel gave a Brown Act and California Public Records Act refresher, highlighting that the committee is subject to open-meeting rules, social media restrictions under AB 992, 72-hour agenda posting, and public-records coverage for work-related emails.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6661121,"Roseville Measure B oversight committee appoints Bunnell chair, Hill vice chair; approves minutes, selects report drafters",5073,307000,5380000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2416936-3a8e6afa3ea03b793cf4a8659516df67&start=307&end=5380","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2416936-3a8e6afa3ea03b793cf4a8659516df67/thumbnail_307000.jpg","/articles/6661121/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Roseville-Measure-B-oversight-committee-appoints-Bunnell-chair-Hill-vice-chair-approves-minutes-selects-report-drafters","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6661121-e2838d8c4eacd80867a3984dcc6b6e87/orig.mp4?Expires=1770445673&Signature=a5mo2CkwS8d8QIL3oCu2iqqhVq~~rlzr46BnkOHnBbaZEoeZ303UBCA4QAoK3KPT-CUMPfBmdWcPJ0IFL2MYt94nBYoJYkKoDA~BJdXIlnfQlt39GG1wEKNiQeA7MuCqUPmsTHxhusZkg4E2l1uIL2v8NeQBXCdQX-xY4W-PORf9wBs8HvOp7XvxowNt3hf1N~vug1yt18W1l0YFpBu2LtazBIU6ghTZKoMPxKINoaAEO8Pm39g7P-yIJbHz3CoyWVNXoKeLMCcT6EJ8UANkleDP7VtPOMu8bviqjanxJbQZ-AFHBmf2p~h6wwedZdRUBRxFeGn7KzgKVwsRK1pe8A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Roseville Local Sales Tax Citizens Oversight Committee on Feb. 26 approved its April 10, 2024 minutes, elected Committee Member Joe Bunnell as the committee chair for 2025 and Committee Member Stephanie Hill as vice chair, and appointed two committee members to draft the committee’s April report to the City Council.
