The combined General and Measure U Fund budget of $678 million reflects an increase of $53 million or 8.5% compared to the prior year approved budget. This proposed budget is balanced and represents the City’s financial plan for the upcoming fiscal year. As Sacramento begins to emerge from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic (pandemic), with more residents becoming vaccinated and the State of California and County of Sacramento further loosening restrictions on local business operations, tourism, conferences, and events, we look forward to beginning the transition to post-pandemic life and City business. The forecasts presented in this budget are based on data collected over the previous fiscal year as well as current financial modeling of data available as recent as the end of March. Though the full impact of the pandemic on the City, our businesses and our residents will not be known for some time, the City remains cautiously optimistic about an impending economic recovery. However, in this transition time, the City still faces significant financial challenges. While sales tax revenue has performed better than initially anticipated, the City continues to experience revenue shortfalls in parking and transient occupancy tax (TOT) revenues. The City is continuing to see shortfalls in department revenues, which were not adjusted beyond the current year. As it always seems, needs continue to outpace resources and we will continue to look for opportunities to provide long-term stability to our budgetary framework. Over the past year, helping Sacramentans of all ages and backgrounds has been the City’s top priority, with the City launching or expanding more than 70 programs related to pandemic relief. In the coming fiscal year, the City will continue to offer multiple assistance programs while working to kickstart the local economy. 12 FY2021/22 Proposed Budget The City this past year received and allocated $89 million in federal CARES Act funding for small-business recovery and assistance, youth and workforce training programs, homelessness and rapid rehousing, the arts, and social services. In March, President Joe Biden signed the American Rescue Plan of 2021 (ARP), from which the City expects to receive $121.6 million to address internal financial challenges resulting from the pandemic, to recognize the work of our employees and to provide additional relief to our residents. In addition to the federal funding coming directly to the City there are funds available for specific programs and from the State of California to address needs associated with the negative economic impacts of the pandemic. In the coming months, the City will be working to identify all available funding such that the City can truly leverage all opportunities to receive funding for our priorities. As the funding picture becomes clear we will rely on the Council’s input and direction for the equitable and inclusive allocation of this funding. The City remains focused on supporting its most vulnerable residents and their communities during this difficult time through innovative programs such as the new Safe Ground site near the W/X freeway and the South Front Street Safe Parking site. The City also continues to
