City of Carlsbad Strategic Goals
Balanced Community Development – A city that connects community,
place and spirit, through balanced and economically sustainable land uses.
Citizen Connection and Partnership – A city that embraces Community
connectivity through the effective use of technological and interpersonal
mediums.
Communications – Ensure that community members, Council and staff are
well informed, continuing to be a more responsive government while providing a
high level of citizen confidence in its government.
Environmental Management – An environmentally sensitive community
by focusing on: conservation, storm water, sewage collection and treatment, solid
waste, and cost effective and efficient use of energy including alternative energy
sources.
Financial Health – Pursue and implement proactive strategies that support
sustainable economic health and manage City resources effectively.
Learning, Culture & Arts – Promote and support continuous learning,
cultural opportunities and the arts within the community and the City
organization.
Parks / Open Space / Trails – Acquire, develop and maintain a broad range
of open space and recreational facilities that actively address citizen needs which
are fiscally responsible, and are consistent with the General Plan and Growth
Management Standards.
Safe Community – Maintain a safe and secure community through
collaborative partnerships. Public safety providers support high standards, deliver
protection of life and property, and encourage community involvement in
prevention and preparedness efforts.
Transportation / Circulation – Provide and support a safe and efficient
transportation system that moves people, services and goods throughout Carlsbad.
Water – Ensure, in the most cost-effective manner, water quality and reliability
to the maximum extent practical, to deliver high quality potable and reclaimed
water incorporating drought-resistant community principles.
The City’s budget is comprised of two pieces; the operating budget and the capital improvement
program budget (CIP). The CIP provides the funds to build the parks, roads, buildings, and
other infrastructure of the City while the operating budget provides the money to staff and
operate the facilities and infrastructure as well as provide important services to the citizens and
visitors of Carlsbad. The operating budget totals $191.1 million and is expected to generate
$194.6 million in revenues. The CIP contains the current year budget allocation of $70.4 million
and outlines approximately 225 future projects at a total cost of $441.3 million through buildout
of the City. Capital revenues for Fiscal Year 2009-10 are estimated at $58.7 million. The
capital projects include parks, civic facilities, as well as infrastructure needs anticipated for the
future that are not expected to be constructed by developers.
The budget overview on the following pages will provide the reader with a good
understanding of the budget process and the economic profile of the City as well
as with a broad overview of the services and projects planned for the 2009-10
Fiscal Year. This section also addresses debt management, including a schedule
of the outstanding bond issues. More detail on the City’s numerous programs and
projects can be found throughout the remainder of the document.
BUDGET PROCESS
The budget process for the
City of Carlsbad begins early
in the calendar year, with a
review and update of the
City Council’s five-year
vision statements. Through
the vision statements,
Council defines and clarifies
their vision of Carlsbad. The
City Council also provides
the City with their top priority
projects, which further
defines their vision. The
strategic goals for the City
are developed next. These
statements are reflected in
the box on the right. The
goals further define the
methods used to achieve the
vision and highlight areas
where Council desires to
place special emphasis
during the year. Once the
vision, goals and priority
projects are developed, staff
develops operational goals
based on Council’s direction.
These operational goals are
the basis for the
development of the
Operating Budget.

CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-5
Carlsbad’s Operating Budget is a tool that guides the achievement of Council’s vision, goals,
and priority projects for the City. The budget allocates the resources, and sets the priorities for
the programs offered by the City. Thus, it is an integral part of making Carlsbad a wonderful
community in which to live, work and play. In addition, the budget is a fiscally conservative
balanced budget, to effectively sustain the community and essential City services far into the
future.
ECONOMIC PROFILE
The US economy has been in a
recession since December 2007.
According to the Bureau of Economic
Analysis, the economy is expected to
contract at an annual rate of 6.1% in
the first quarter of 2009, which is
fairly consistent with the 6.3% decline
in the fourth quarter of 2008. While
consumer spending grew 2.2% in the
first quarter of 2009 after contracting
by 4.3% in the fourth quarter, this
increase was offset by declines in
exports, business investment and
housing construction. Prices of goods and services purchased by US residents fell 1% for the
first quarter of 2009, compared to a 3.9% decrease in the fourth quarter of 2008. Consumer
sentiment rose to 67.9 in May 2009 from 65.1 in April according to the Reuters/University of
Michigan index. The index reached a thirty year low of 55.3 in November 2008. “Financial –
market improvement and the fiscal stimulus is leading to stabilization in spending and
improvement in confidence,” said Dean Maki, co-head of U.S. economic research at Barclays
Capital Inc. in New York.
In May 2009, Ed Leamer at UCLA Anderson Forecast, predicted that the second half of
calendar year 2009 is expected to be better than the first half. He expects the housing market
to bottom out in the middle of 2009 and expects that the national unemployment rate will reach
10%.
Kenneth Rogoff, Professor at Harvard University’s Department of Economics said that the
economy still faces serious challenges. Rogoff says that the housing market is going to take
five years to recover and that the large budget deficits will push out growth. Several other
economists believe that the economy has not yet hit bottom and that when it does, it will be a
long and slow recovery.
California’s economy is slow as well. While the federal government in February 2009
approved a stimulus package that would lower taxes and invest in infrastructure, the State of
California during the same timeframe increased taxes and reduced infrastructure spending
thereby offsetting the benefits for California of the federal efforts. The UCLA Anderson Forecast
in May 2009 projected that real personal income in California will be a -0.8% for 2009, 0.7% for
2010 and 3.8% in 2011. In addition, the unemployment rate is expected to be 11% in 2009,
11.7% in 2010 and 10.8% in 2011. In addition, economists from UCLA Anderson Forecast are
concerned with the overall uncertainty, especially in the areas of slower consumption growth,
the need to reduce government employment, higher state taxes, and pessimism from business
sector investors. This uncertainty could lead to higher unemployment this year than assumed in
their current forecast. This economic uncertainty is at the forefront as the City of Carlsbad
develops a preliminary budget for FY 2009-10.

Locally, the San Diego economy is struggling as well, according to several local economists,
including University of San Diego (USD) economist Alan Gin. The University of San Diego’s
Index of Leading Economic Indicators for San Diego County declined 2.2% in March 2009 which
has been falling 35 of the last 36 months. In March 2009, there were sharp declines in all six of
the components in the index led by a record drop in help wanted advertising. The local
unemployment rate was 9.3% in March, up from 8.9% in February 2009. For the rest of 2009,
Alan Gin is predicting the local economy will remain strongly negative. Compared to the same
period in 2008, residential units authorized were down almost 25 percent for the first quarter of
2009. According to Alan Gin, “Both the national and local economies are caught in a vicious
cycle where job losses are reducing incomes, which reduces consumption, auto sales, and
home sales, which in turn leads to even more job losses.” A chart reflecting USD’s economic
indicators is reflected below.
The total USD index for March
2009 is 100.7, which is down
18% from the March 2008 index
of 122.7. It is unclear how much
longer the index will continue on
this declining trend.
Carlsbad’s economy is tied
closely to that of the San Diego
region and is feeling the effects
of the economic recession.
During FY 2008-09, the City
lowered its annual General Fund
revenue estimates by $4.6
million due to a significant
slowdown in sales tax, transient
occupancy taxes (TOT) and
overall development activity. Due to the lag time between the payment of property taxes and
the housing decline, for FY 2008-09 property taxes are expected to grow by approximately 7%.
TOT, the City’s gauge of the tourism industry, are expected to end FY 2008-09 showing a 5.5%
decline even though there was growth in the number of hotel rooms during FY 2008-09. Sales
taxes are expected to end FY 2008-09 with a decline of 6.2% due to the slow economy
especially the decline in auto sales. Overall the City is anticipated to end FY 2008-09 with a
3.1% decline or $3.7 million less in revenue compared to FY 2007-08.
Carlsbad’s residential real estate market has slowed significantly throughout FY 2008-09. For
FY 2008-09 through April, the City has issued 91 dwelling units as compared to 290 dwelling
units for FY 2007-08 for the same time frame. For Industrial and Commercial, the City has
permitted 220,963 square feet for FY 2008-09 through April, compared to 963,295 square feet
for FY 2007-08 for the same time frame. The number of permits for the rest of the fiscal year is
expected to be very slow due to the stagnant economy. While development has slowed
significantly, there are a number of new residential communities under construction or in the
final phases of development that will add to the residential housing stock in Carlsbad albeit the
timing has been delayed due to the economy. The Villages of La Costa projects known as the
Oaks North, the Greens and the Ridge are either complete or under construction, and will
ultimately add approximately 1,769 single-family and multi-family units when complete. In
addition, the Robertson Ranch area, which is expected to contain over 1,000 residential units,
has pulled permits to begin building the model homes. The completion of these master planned
communities will signal an end to the large-scale residential developments in Carlsbad.

CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

prepares a ten-year operating forecast for the General Fund, and a 15+ year Capital
Improvement Program. As part of the Capital Improvement Program, the City annually
calculates the amounts needed to pay for the various projects, and calculates the anticipated
operating budget impacts. In this way, the City can anticipate the effects of development from
both a capital and an operating perspective.
One important initiative the City has undertaken to ensure its financial health is the development
of an Infrastructure Replacement Fund. With this fund, the City sets aside money on an annual
basis for major maintenance and replacement of its infrastructure. Much of the City’s
infrastructure is relatively new; thus, the City is just now experiencing the impact of maintenance
requirements. By setting aside funds now, the citizens of Carlsbad can be assured that the
proper maintenance and replacement, as needed, will be performed on streets, parks and many
facilities for which the City is responsible.
Even with the economic
slowdown, Carlsbad’s
current economic
position is an enviable
one. A relatively healthy
and well diverse local
economy over the past
ten years provided
additional revenue-
generating sites that
allowed the City to
continue to add new
facilities and services for
the citizens. The City
hosts three regional
shopping areas within its boundaries; a large regional mall, an outlet center, and a high-end
retail center in the southern part of town called The Forum. Together, these sites contribute
approximately $4.3 million annually to the City’s sales taxes. The City’s Auto Mall generates
another $4.5 million per year in sales taxes for the City. Legoland, a family theme park,
contributes to the City’s sales tax base and stimulates the development of new hotels in the
area. The effect of the new development and the demand for housing in Carlsbad is an
increasing tax base. The four major revenue sources for the City: property taxes, sales taxes,
transient occupancy taxes (TOT), and franchise taxes, are expected to provide $88 million, or
81%, of the City’s General Fund revenues in FY 2009-10, compared with approximately $95
million in FY 2008-09. These taxes and fees are the major source of funding for most of the
City’s services, and allow the City to live up to its reputation as one of the premier locations in
San Diego County.
Overall, for FY 2009-10, the General Fund revenue is projected to decline by 6.2% from the
previous year’s estimates. The City’s sales taxes are projected to decline by 12.5% for Fiscal
Year 2009-10 primarily due to the significant decline in auto sales. In addition, due to the
decline in housing prices, the County Assessor has estimated that the City should expect
property tax revenues to decrease by almost 2.8% for FY 2009-10. New building permits are
expected to continue to be slow and the development related revenue items have been adjusted
accordingly for Fiscal Year 2009-10. And finally, tourism is expected to be impacted by low
consumer confidence and job losses, so TOT receipts are projected to decline by 10.2%. More
information on all of the City’s revenues and programs can be found in the later sections of the
document.

State of California – In addition to the economic recession and the uncertainty on
when the economy will begin to recover, the State of California’s fiscal problems
also cast a shadow on the City’s economic future. The State of California has been
in a severe fiscal crisis for a number of years. Through a variety of loans, one-time
revenues, interfund borrowings, and raids on city, county and special district funds,
it has been able to manage its cash flows and stay solvent. However, more drastic measures
are necessary for the state to finally balance its budget.
The Governor’s May Revise Budget has been released for FY 2009-10. In May 2009, the state
reported the budget deficit will be $21.3 billion. The Governor has proposed deep cuts to state
programs and services including education and health and human services. The budget also
includes a proposal to borrow $2 billion from local governments. This would translate to
approximately $4.5 million from the City of Carlsbad’s General Fund.
As a result of previous attacks on cities’ revenues, a coalition of cities, counties and special
districts supported Proposition 1A which was approved by the voters in November 2004. The
measure included a provision to help prevent the Legislature from reducing the combined
property tax shares of cities, special districts, and the county, except to borrow the funds on a
temporary basis to address a “severe state fiscal hardship.” According to Proposition 1A, if the
state borrows funds from local governments, the state is required to pay back the funds within
three years including interest. The state can only borrow two times within a 10 year period and
is required to pay back the first loan before another borrowing can occur.
Looking Forward
As stated earlier in this document, the City prepares ten-year forecasts for the General Fund
each year in order to understand the effects of actions taken today on the City’s future. The City
has experienced remarkable revenue growth over the past ten years due to the development of
the majority of its commercial sites. Currently the economic uncertainty has created a forecast
with much smaller surpluses projected than in the recent past and in a few years projected
deficits. The future will bring a few more commercial sites but at a much slower pace especially
in the next few years due to the economy. Until the housing crisis can recover, it is anticipated
that residential development will continue at a much slower pace. There are also quite a few
City facilities – mainly parks and civic facilities – planned in the future to serve the growing
population. The new facilities will add operating costs to the City’s General Fund budget as they
are completed and opened for use. The timing of opening these facilities has been reviewed to
ensure that the facilities are opened during a time when the General Fund can support these
additional operating costs.
These new facility operating costs have been incorporated into the General Fund forecast
shown on the next page and projected over the next ten years. The emphasis will continue to
be maintaining existing infrastructure. New civic facilities will be planned when there is
anticipated financial capacity to operate and maintain those new facilities when they are
opened. While no forecast is ever totally accurate, it does represent a likely scenario given the
assumptions on which it is built.
The forecast assumes that revenue growth will be negative through FY 2009-10 and then very
moderate growth for the following two years, assuming the economic slowdown will last two to
three years. To project the expenditures, it includes all known personnel costs, most of which
have been negotiated with the employee groups through December 2009.

The forecast assumes 10% annual increases in health care costs in the near future with the
employees paying half of those increases. It also assumes no personnel growth (new positions)
until FY 2012-13. Negotiated salary step increases and cost of living increases between 0.5%
and 3.5% have been added to personnel costs. In order to help maintain a balanced 10 year
forecast, position growth has been limited. Pension plan costs are anticipated to increase by
5% for general employees and 10% for safety employees in FY 2011-12 as a result of the
significant investment losses CALPERS has sustained this last year. It assumes that the
contribution from the General Fund to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund is 6.5% of General
Fund revenues, except during FY 2009-10 where it has been lowered to 6.0% to help offset the
projected negative growth in revenue. And finally, it includes estimated operating costs for all
capital projects in the timeframes shown in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). One of the
significant assumptions in the forecast is that the recession will last approximately three years
with slow recovery beginning in FY 2010-11.
The results show that while the General Fund is balanced for FY 2009-10, there are deficits
projected for the following two years. More budget solutions will be pursued to help balance
those years as well. In addition, for the years that appear to be balanced, there are much
smaller surpluses than in previous years’ forecasts. This reflects the current economic recession
and uncertainty.

The ability to understand both changes in revenue sources as well as program needs into the
future, is crucial to ensure that the City has the funds available to realize its future plans. The
General Fund forecast is a tool available to the City to achieve the goal of managing its fiscal
resources effectively and monitoring the achievement of sustainable economic health for the
City of Carlsbad into the future. When there is economic uncertainty, this long-term perspective
becomes even more important.
OPERATING BUDGET
Revenue Projections by Fund
The City’s operations are divided into
various funds. Each fund has been
established because of certain
restrictions placed on the use of the
resources received by that fund. Any
unrestricted funds are placed in the
General Fund. Estimated revenues for
the City’s five fund types are shown on
the accompanying graph.
General Fund
The fund receiving the largest slice of
the revenues is the General Fund, with
estimated revenues of $109.3 million for Fiscal Year 2009-10. The General Fund pays for most
of the City services available to City residents. The majority of the General Fund revenues
(84%) are derived from taxes. The following graph illustrates the sources of revenue to the
General Fund.

The ability to understand both changes in revenue sources as well as program needs into the
future, is crucial to ensure that the City has the funds available to realize its future plans. The
General Fund forecast is a tool available to the City to achieve the goal of managing its fiscal
resources effectively and monitoring the achievement of sustainable economic health for the
City of Carlsbad into the future. When there is economic uncertainty, this long-term perspective
becomes even more important.
OPERATING BUDGET
Revenue Projections by Fund
The City’s operations are divided into
various funds. Each fund has been
established because of certain
restrictions placed on the use of the
resources received by that fund. Any
unrestricted funds are placed in the
General Fund. Estimated revenues for
the City’s five fund types are shown on
the accompanying graph.
General Fund
The fund receiving the largest slice of
the revenues is the General Fund, with
estimated revenues of $109.3 million for Fiscal Year 2009-10. The General Fund pays for most
of the City services available to City residents. The majority of the General Fund revenues
(84%) are derived from taxes. The following graph illustrates the sources of revenue to the
General Fund.

Community Development, with a budget of $16.5 million, provides the services that guide and
oversee the planning and development of Carlsbad as depicted in the City's General Plan. The
General Plan is the base document that expresses the goals and public policy relative to future
land use. It acts as a "constitution" for development and is the foundation upon which all land
use decisions are based. Also included under Community Development are the housing and
redevelopment programs.
Community Services, with a budget of $23.6 million, is made up of the library, parks and
recreation, cultural arts, and seniors programs. These programs are provided to a wide range
of people and assist in their education and cultural development.
The service area requiring the largest amount of funds is Public Works and Utilties, with a
budget of $77.1 million. Public Works is responsible for the building and maintenance of all of
the City’s infrastructure and facilities and for the provision of utility services. It is comprised of
the engineering, streets, facilities, fleet, water, and sewer departments.
The Non-Departmental and Contingency accounts total $7.3 million and include programs
benefiting the City as a whole such as community promotions, community contributions,
assessment services, transfers to other funds, and Council’s contingency account. Included in
the non-departmental group is a $6.5 million transfer to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund.
This program sets aside funds for the replacement of the City’s base infrastructure. The
contingency account, which is available to the City Council for emergencies and unforeseen
program needs that arise during the year, is budgeted at $0.5 million. The contingency account
amounts to less than 0.5% of the FY 2009-10 General Fund budget.

STAFFING
The FY 2009-10 Operating budget reflects a total decrease of 13.5 full-time positions, including
the unfunding of 12 full-time or limited-term positions, and the elimination of 1.5 full-time
positions, namely the Administrative Secretary position in Administrative Services and a 0.5
limited-term Management Intern in the City Manager’s office. The net increase in hourly staff
totaled approximately .61 of part-time staff. These changes result in a City workforce of 712.75
full and three-quarter time employees, 3.5 limited term employees, and 138.44 hourly FTE,
although 12 of the full-time and limited term positions are not funded in the FY 2009-10 budget.
In addition to the changes mentioned here, there are approximately 14 current vacant positions
that will be frozen in order to generate additional expenditures savings during the year if
needed. Combined, this will result in approximately 28 fewer positions providing services than
in previous years. The staffing changes in each of the City’s programs are discussed more fully
in the Operating Budget Overview.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The City of Carlsbad’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a long-range planning document,
which outlines the expenditure plan for current and future capital projects and the corresponding
revenues to pay for those expenditures. Projects in the CIP consist primarily of new
construction or major maintenance and replacement of City facilities such as parks, roads, civic
facilities such as libraries, police and fire stations, and sewer, water, and drainage facilities. The
Capital Improvement Program for 2009-10 totals $70.4 million in new appropriations and an
estimated $155.1 million in continuing appropriations. The City’s Capital Projects are discussed
more fully in the Capital Improvement Program section. Some of the notable capital projects
include the following:
Park Development Projects
• Alga Norte Park and Aquatic Center – This park site consists
of 30 acres in the Southeast Quadrant with planned amenities
that include ball fields, soccer fields, picnic areas, tot lots, a
skate park, a dog park, restrooms, parking facilities, and an
aquatic center. The aquatic center will include a 55-meter
competition pool, a 12-lane instructional pool and a therapy
pool as well as a water play area for toddlers (Phase I). In
addition, a moving river, water slides and wet play structure are
planned for Phase II. A swimming pool complex was one of the
projects approved by the voters through Proposition C in 2002.
The total cost of the park and aquatic center - Phase I is
estimated to be $39.8 million. Total appropriation for the park
and Phase I and Phase II of the aquatic center is currently at $50.4 million.
• Leo Carrillo Park – Phase III – The third phase of this historic park
facility includes renovation of additional buildings, construction of additional
restrooms, an arboretum area, and transformation of a barn into a
community theater. The total cost is approximately $2.4 million and design
is expected to begin in FY 2013-14.

Civic Projects
• The Public Works Center will include offices, shops, a yard, warehouse and parking to
accommodate the Public Works Department. The estimated cost to complete the project
is approximately $28.1 million.
• The Joint First Responders Training Facility project was authorized under Proposition
C, which was approved in 2002. Preliminary design work for this facility is currently
underway and preliminary plans include a 25 lane shooting range, a four-story fire
training tower, a two-story residential training facility, and an outdoor seating pavilion.
The estimated cost to complete the project is approximately $24.5 million.
• The Relocation of Fire Station No. 3, which is currently
located at the corner of Chestnut and Catalina, is needed to
help ensure a five-minute response time as the City grows
eastward. The new station is budgeted as a 6,200 square foot
facility and the current proposed site is in Robertson Ranch.
Total cost is projected at $7.5 million.
Street Projects
• The Carlsbad Boulevard Encinas Creek Bridge Replacement project includes
replacement of the existing bridge, originally constructed in 1913. The project is planned
in the next 5 years at an estimated cost of $2.5 million.
• Poinsettia Lane Reach E is a project which includes completion of the final link along
Poinsettia Lane between Cassia Road east to Skimmer Court. The total cost is
approximately $13.5 million and the City expects to begin the design in FY 2013-14.
• The El Camino Real Medians project is for the construction of the missing segments of
the medians along El Camino Real. The revised total estimated cost of the project is
$5.2 million.
• The El Camino Real Widening – Tamarack to Chestnut project is for the widening of
El Camino Real to prime arterial roadway standards and includes the acquisition of
additional roadway right-of-way and the design of the retaining walls along both sides of
the roadway. The total estimated cost of the project to $12.3 million.
• The Pavement Management Program helps ensure that Carlsbad’s local streets are
maintained on a regular cycle to ensure a good riding surface and to extend the life of
the street. Applying seals and overlays when roadways are beginning to show signs of
distress can minimize the more expensive repair/reactive maintenance activities. The
proactive approach consists of the scheduled application of a seal or overlay once every
seven years, allowing the City to efficiently maintain over 344 miles of public roadways
at an annual cost of approximately $3.5 million. In addition, any problem areas are
addressed as they are identified. The FY 2009-10 CIP has $4.5 million budgeted for this
program which includes an advance of $1.0 million from the FY 2010-11 funding
program to complete the overlay of College Boulevard from Faraday Avenue to Palomar
Airport Road in a timely manner and will reduce the amount of costly removal and
reconstruction work that could result from delays.

• The Concrete Repair Program is a companion to the pavement management program.
It will ensure that curbs, gutters and sidewalks are also properly maintained. By
allocating the funding, both pavement and concrete replacements can be accomplished
at the same time. This will help maximize efficiencies and reduce inconvenience to the
citizens. There is $350,000 budgeted in FY 2009-10 for this program.
Sewer, Water, and Drainage Facility Projects
• Reaches 1 to 5, and 11 to 15, and the Agua Hedionda lift station of
the Vista/Carlsbad Interceptor are scheduled over the next five
years. These projects are required to handle buildout flows and
replace deteriorated pipelines. The projects are predominantly
funded by the City of Vista. The total estimated costs for all of the
projects are approximately $47.4 million. The City of Vista’s share
of the costs is approximately $32.7 million, or 69% of the total costs.
• The Maerkle Reservoir Storage project is for the construction of a
buried 16 million gallon water storage reservoir next to the existing reservoir in order to
provide additional emergency storage and to meet the 10-day storage criteria based on
ultimate demands. The total cost is estimated at $14.8 million.
• The Hydroelectric Pressure Reducing Station project at the Maerkle Reservoir is an
electricity generating project that will provide a renewable energy source for the City.
The cost estimate for this project is approximately $1.3 million.
• Several major water lines are scheduled for construction within the next five years:
- Carlsbad Boulevard – south of Avenida Encinas
- Maerkle Transmission Main
- Tri-Agencies Water Transmission Pipeline Replacement
DEBT MANAGEMENT ISSUES
The use of debt has always been a primary issue in the development of the Capital
Improvement Program and the policies to implement the Growth Management Program. Over
the years, the City has issued millions of dollars of bonds and Certificates of Participation
(COPs) to fund streets, buildings, sewer and water facilities, open space acquisitions, and other
infrastructure projects. The City is continually evaluating its outstanding debt as well as
potential future issues to ensure that interest costs are kept at a minimum and the use of the
bond funds is appropriate.
During fiscal year 2008-09, the City’s General Fund paid off the remaining balance of the $6.6
million debt issued in 1997 for Hosp Grove Refunding, Certificates of Participation. Prior to the
retirement of this debt, average annual debt service payments for the General Fund were
approximately $750,000. For Fiscal Year 2009-10, no debt service payments will be required of
the General Fund.
Of the approximately $129 million of debt currently outstanding, none will be paid back using
General Fund monies. Rather, the debts will be repaid from sewer revenues, golf course
revenues and from property owners benefiting from the improvements built with bond proceeds.
The City has no obligation to advance funds to the assessment districts if the property owners
do not pay.
The table following the Summary identifies the debt the City has issued, the outstanding
principal, the 2009-10 principal and interest payments, and the scheduled fiscal year of payoff.

Of the approximately $129 million of debt currently outstanding, none will be paid back using
General Fund monies. Rather, the debts will be repaid from sewer revenues, golf course
revenues and from property owners benefiting from the improvements built with bond proceeds.
The City has no obligation to advance funds to the assessment districts if the property owners
do not pay.
The table following the Summary identifies the debt the City has issued, the outstanding
principal, the 2009-10 principal and interest payments, and the scheduled fiscal year of payoff.
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY
The City of Carlsbad continues to be a fiscally conservative and responsible city. Given the
current recession, the City has developed a balanced budget for FY 2009-10 with no growth and
minimal impact on provision of direct City services to the citizens and visitors of Carlsbad.
While the City of Carlsbad has a diverse economic base, it is not immune to the weak economy.
However, it is evident that the long-term planning and foresight by the City Council and
residents have provided a sound economic base for the City to positively weather this economic
storm. The ten year forecast continues to be an important tool for the City to help anticipate
changes in revenue and adjust expenditures accordingly.
The challenges for the future will revolve around transitioning from a developing City to a fully
built City; it will be about managing costs while continuing to look for appropriate revenue
streams sufficient to pay for the services desired by the citizens. This year’s budget reflects the
anticipated achievement of Council’s vision and goals for the City. It allocates the available
funding in a manner that proactively plans for the future. This plan will provide quality services to
all who live, work, and play in Carlsbad.

OPERATING BUDGET SUMMARY
2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-1
The Operating budget for Fiscal Year 2009-10 totals $191.1 million, with revenues for the year
estimated at $194.6 million. General Fund revenues are estimated at $109.3 million and
General Fund budgeted expenditures are $109.1 million.
REVENUE
The following table shows the total operating revenues the City anticipates receiving for
FY 2008-09, as well as those estimated for FY 2009-10.
Revenue estimates for the Operating Budget indicate that the City will receive a total of $194.6
million, a 0.9% increase over the prior year’s projections. The majority of the increase of
$1.7 million is in the Enterprise Funds due to the proposed water and wastewater rate
increases. More information on the City’s revenue sources can be found in the discussion that
follows.
General Fund
General Fund revenues provide a representative picture of the local economy. These revenues
are of particular interest as they fund basic City services such as police, fire, library, street and
park maintenance, and recreation programs. The table below shows a summarized outlook for
the major General Fund revenues.

2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-2
The economic recession discussed in the Budget Overview section is causing the General Fund
revenues to decline for FY 2009-10. Several of the largest revenue sources in the General
Fund are impacted by the fluctuations in the economy. In addition, the housing crisis is not only
impacting property taxes, it is also affecting sales taxes, transient occupancy taxes and
development related revenues. This upcoming fiscal year it is expected that property taxes will
be approximately $47.9 million, a 5.3% decrease over the projection for FY 2008-09. This
includes a 2.8% estimated decrease in assessed valuation as provided by the County Assessor
in May 2009, a conservative assumption for a significant slowdown for new development, as
well as a one-time adjustment for previous years’ aviation taxes received during FY 2008-09.
Property taxes tend to lag behind the rest of the economy, as the tax for the upcoming fiscal
year is based on assessed values from the previous January. Thus, the taxes to be received for
Fiscal Year 2009-10 are based on values as of January 1, 2009. Sales taxes react much
quicker to changes in the economy and therefore will typically grow faster in a good economy,
but also drop off faster as the economy cools.
Property taxes also
have a cap on how fast
they can grow. This is
due to Proposition 13.
Proposition 13 was
adopted by the State in
1978. This proposition
limits the growth in
assessed values (and
thus property taxes) to
no more than 2% per
year. The value upon
which the tax is based
is only increased to the
full market value upon
the sale of the property.
Thus, property taxes tend to grow slowly unless there is a significant amount of housing activity.
In previous years, we have seen a robust growth in property taxes due to new developments, a
large number of resales within the City spurring revaluation of the parcels, and double-digit
growth in housing prices. As the economy slows, housing prices decline, and the City
approaches build-out, the growth in property taxes is expected to continue to be moderate.
Sales taxes are expected to total $23
million for FY 2009-10, a decrease of
12.6% compared to the FY 2008-09
projections. The City of Carlsbad has
many car dealerships which usually
generate approximately $6.0 million of
sales tax each year. Car sales have
slowed during FY 2008-09 and are
expected to remain slow during FY 2009-
10 resulting in annual car sales
projections of approximately $4.5 million.
In addition, retail comprises over 40% of
the sales tax generated in Carlsbad and
with a slow economy and lower
consumer confidence, it is anticipated there will be less discretionary purchases as well.

2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-3
Several years ago, the State of California implemented the “Triple Flip.” The “Triple Flip” is
essentially a temporary swap of a ¼ cent of the cities’ sales taxes in return for property tax. It
was done in order to give the state a revenue source against which they could issue deficit
reduction bonds. The City’s sales tax estimates continue to show this amount as sales tax since
the amount is reflective of what the City would receive.
As can be seen in the chart on the previous page, the City’s sales tax base is heavily weighted
in the transportation (predominantly new car sales) and retail sectors. These two sectors make
up approximately 66% of the City’s sales tax base and are being negatively impacted by the
economic recession.
Sales tax estimates also include approximately $700,000 that is restricted to spending on public
safety services under Proposition 172. Proposition 172 requires that the one-half cent increase
in California sales taxes be allocated to local agencies, to fund public safety services.
The third highest General
Fund revenue source is
Transient Occupancy Taxes
(TOT or hotel taxes) estimated
at $12.1 million for FY 2009-
10, a decrease of 10.4%
compared to FY 2008-09
estimates. It appears that the
higher end hotels are being
more heavily impacted by the
economy than the more
moderate priced hotels. In
addition, there is a decline in
group sales as corporations
spend less on meetings and
conferences.
One of the more volatile General Fund revenues is the Franchise tax. Franchise taxes are
paid by certain industries that use the City right-of-way to conduct their business. The City
currently has franchise agreements for cable TV service, solid waste services, cell sites, and
gas and electric services. The cable and solid waste franchises have been growing along with
the growth in population and changes in their rate structures. These franchise revenues are
projected to increase by 13.3% primarily due to the franchise taxes on gas and electric services,
which are paid by San Diego
Gas and Electric (SDG&E).
SDG&E pays franchise taxes
for the use of the public land
over which they transport gas
and electricity. The City also
receives an “in-lieu” franchise
tax based on the value of gas
and electricity transported on
SDG&E lines, but purchased
from another source. The “in-
lieu” tax captures the franchise
taxes on gas and electricity that
is transported using public lands
but which would not otherwise

Sales tax estimates also include approximately $700,000 that is restricted to spending on public
safety services under Proposition 172. Proposition 172 requires that the one-half cent increase
in California sales taxes be allocated to local agencies, to fund public safety services.
The third highest General
Fund revenue source is
Transient Occupancy Taxes
(TOT or hotel taxes) estimated
at $12.1 million for FY 2009-
10, a decrease of 10.4%
compared to FY 2008-09
estimates. It appears that the
higher end hotels are being
more heavily impacted by the
economy than the more
moderate priced hotels. In
addition, there is a decline in
group sales as corporations
spend less on meetings and
conferences.
One of the more volatile General Fund revenues is the Franchise tax. Franchise taxes are
paid by certain industries that use the City right-of-way to conduct their business. The City
currently has franchise agreements for cable TV service, solid waste services, cell sites, and
gas and electric services. The cable and solid waste franchises have been growing along with
the growth in population and changes in their rate structures. These franchise revenues are
projected to increase by 13.3% primarily due to the franchise taxes on gas and electric services,
which are paid by San Diego
Gas and Electric (SDG&E).
SDG&E pays franchise taxes
for the use of the public land
over which they transport gas
and electricity. The City also
receives an “in-lieu” franchise
tax based on the value of gas
and electricity transported on
SDG&E lines, but purchased
from another source. The “in-
lieu” tax captures the franchise
taxes on gas and electricity that
is transported using public lands
but which would not otherwise

The majority of the “in-lieu” taxes received is attributable to Cabrillo Power, the operator of the
Encina power plant, based on the gas used in the generation of electricity.
Development-related revenues include planning, engineering and building permits, and fees
paid by developers to cover the cost of reviewing and monitoring development activities such as
plan checks and inspections. These revenues are difficult to predict, as many of the planning
and engineering activities occur months or years before any structures are actually built.
Development-related revenues have been declining during Fiscal Year 2008-09 due to the
slowdown in the economy especially the melt down in the real estate market. For the FY 2009-
10 budget, the development-related revenues are anticipated to continue to decline as a result
of the economy and real estate market. For FY 2007-08 there were 339 units permitted for
residential housing. For FY 2008-09 approximately 91 residential units have been permitted
through April 2009. For FY 2009-10, 74 permits are projected to be issued for residential
housing. The commercial and industrial building activity remained strong for FY 2007-08
however, it too has slowed in FY 2008-09 and is expected to continue slowing in FY 2009-10. A
5.6% decline in building related revenue is projected for next year; this is in addition to a 48%
decline from FY 2007-08 to FY 2008-09.
Business license taxes are closely tied to the health of the economy and are projected to
decline by 11.1% to an estimated $3.2 million. There are currently about 8,500 licensed
businesses in Carlsbad, with over 2,500 of them home-based.
All other revenues include vehicle license fees, transfer taxes, interest earnings, ambulance
fees, recreation fees, and other charges and fees. The estimate for Fiscal Year 2009-10 totals
$16.3 million, a slight increase from the previous year.
Transfer taxes are those taxes paid to the county upon the transfer of interests in real estate.
The tax is 55 cents per $500 of property value, and is split equally between the county and the
City. Carlsbad expects to receive approximately $500,000 in transfer taxes for FY 2009-10,
which is about the same as FY 2008-09. Income from investments and property includes
interest earnings, as well as rental income from City-owned land and facilities. The City is
expected to earn about $2.7 million in interest on its General Fund investments for Fiscal Year
2009-10.
General Fund Revenues
Overall, as reflected in the
bar chart, General Fund
revenues are expected to be
down 6.2% from FY 2008-09
estimates due to the
economic recession and the
housing market. Although the
City experienced revenue
growth between 9% and 17%
in the late 1990’s, it was not
sustainable growth. Much of
those increases were due to
the opening of new hotels, restaurants, retail centers, and new home development. As the City
matures, it will be increasingly more difficult to produce double-digit growth in revenues. With
the current economic slowdown, limited growth is anticipated over the next two to three years
with the City returning to 4% to 7% growth rates in the future.

Other Funds
Revenues from Special Revenue funds are expected to total $10.4 million in FY 2009-10, a
$0.9 million decrease from FY 2008-09. The types of programs supported within Special
Revenue funds are those funded by specific revenue streams such as:
Grants (Rental Assistance-Section 8, Community Development Block Grants, COPS Grant)
Special fees and assessments (Affordable Housing, Maintenance Assessment Districts)
Donations (Library, Cultural Arts, Recreation and Senior Donations)
The most noteworthy change in the Special Revenue funds occurred in the Affordable Housing
Trust Fund. Estimated revenues decreased $700,000 from FY 2008-09. The Housing Trust
fund was set up to provide funding for the City’s affordable housing programs. Revenues come
from inclusionary housing fees, interest on cash balances, payments on affordable housing
loans and grants. During FY 2008-09 the Fund received a $600,000 federal grant from Habitat
for Humanity for affordable housing on Roosevelt Avenue. For FY 2009-10, there are no grants
budgeted. The rest of the fund’s revenue decrease is due to affordable housing fees due to the
decline in development expected during FY 2009-10.
Enterprise fund revenues for FY 2009-10 are projected at $55.7 million, an increase of $9.6
million (20.8%) over current year projections. The increase in revenues is due to the proposed
rate increases for Water and Wastewater funds. Enterprise funds are similar to a business, in
that rates are charged to support the operations that supply the service. Carlsbad Enterprise
funds include water and recycled water delivery, wastewater services, and solid waste
management.
The Water Enterprise Fund revenue is estimated at $41.9 million, an increase of $8.6 million, or
25.9% over the current year estimate. Of that increase, $8.3 million will be from water sales
reflecting increased rates to pay for the rising cost of water purchases. At a Public Hearing held
on June 23rd, 2009 the Board of Directors of the Carlsbad Municipal Water District approved an
overall 15.5% rate increase in the selling price of water, with the exception of the recycled and
the agriculture water rates. A new tiered rate structure for single family and multi-family
customers was also approved, as well as the ability for the Board to pass-through future
increases of wholesale water costs and inflationary adjustments, without the requirement of
holding a majority protest public hearing. The recycled and agriculture water rates were
approved on August 11, 2009. The recycled rate increased from $2.01 to $2.52 per unit (a
25.4% increase) and the agriculture rate increased from $2.12 to $2.64 per unit (a 24.5%

increase). The wholesale purchase cost of water is projected to increase 21.3% (from $655 to
$795 per acre foot), and the fixed charges for water purchases are expected to increase 16%
(from $3.2 million to $3.7 million). In addition to paying for the wholesale and fixed water costs,
the 2009-10 operating budget includes funding for maintenance and repair of Carlsbad’s
infrastructure, ongoing meter replacements, enhanced technology for managing the
infrastructure, and providing a sufficient operating reserve. The ongoing meter replacement
program will replace existing manually read meters with automated meters which, in addition to
the advanced meter reading technology, include leak detection capabilities.
The approved rate increases are based upon a recent cost of service study prepared by an
outside consultant, and vary depending on user category and the quantity of water consumed.
It is estimated that the average increase to a household will be approximately $4.28 per month
(fixed + variable), based on a monthly water usage of 12 units. Even with these increases,
Carlsbad’s residential water rates are still among the lowest in the region.
Wastewater estimated revenues are $10.2 million, $754,000 over the current year estimate. At
a Public Hearing held on June 23rd, 2009 the City Council approved an overall 9% rate increase
in the wastewater rates. The single family monthly rate is $20.93, an increase of $3.28, or
approximately 18% over the current rate. The cost of service study considered all the cost
components of the expenditures and allocated those costs to the existing customer classes.
These rate increases are needed to fund maintenance, operations, and replacement, and to
establish and maintain adequate operating reserves.
Internal Service funds show estimated revenues of $15.9 million for FY 2009-10, an increase
of 4.6% or $0.7 million from FY 2008-09 projections. Internal Service funds provide services
within the City itself, and include programs such as the self-insurance funds for Workers’
Compensation and Liability (Risk Management), as well as Vehicle Maintenance and
Replacement. Departments pay for services provided by these funds; therefore, the rates
charged for the services are based on the cost to provide the service. The goal of the Internal
Service funds is to match their budgeted expenses with charges to the departments, after
allowing for a certain level of reserves within the fund.
The more significant increases occurred in Risk Management, Vehicle Maintenance and Vehicle
Replacement. In Risk Management, the fund is expected to end FY 2008-09 with a $107,000
deficit. The rates are being adjusted for FY 2009-10 to eliminate this deficit and bring revenues
in line with projected expenditures. In the Vehicle Maintenance Fund, the increase is mainly
due to the increased costs of vehicle maintenance as well as the cost of fuel. For the Vehicle
Replacement Fund, the increase reflects additional allocations to ensure sufficient revenues are
available to replace equipment at the end of its useful life. More discussion on the costs can be
found in the Expenditures section of this report.
Redevelopment revenues are expected to total $3.3 million in the upcoming year, a decrease
of 13.2%, or $0.5 million, from the projections from the previous year. This decrease is the
result of an estimated 3.5% decrease in property tax increment revenues collected for the
Village.
The City has a General Fund reserve policy that sets a minimum reserve of 30% of the
General Fund Operating Expenditures. In addition, the policy sets a target reserve of 40% to
50% of General Fund Operating Expenditures. The minimum reserve would provide
approximately three to four months of operating expenditures for unforeseen emergencies. At
the end of FY 2007-08, the undesignated and unreserved General Fund balance was
approximately $46.1 million. At the end of FY 2008-09 the reserve is projected to be
approximately $47.9 million, or 42% of the FY 2008-09 Revised Budget. The reserve amount is
consistent with Council Policy 74: General Fund Reserve Guidelines.

2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-7
EXPENDITURES
The City’s Operating Budget for FY 2009-10 totals $191.1 million, which
represents an increase of $2.4 million, or 1.3%, over the adopted FY 2008-09
budget, as revised by the City Council in January 2009. The changes in
each of the City’s programs will be discussed below.
Budgetary Policies
The theme behind this year’s budget development was to create a long-term plan for a balanced
budget given the economic recession and the continued economic uncertainty. Due to the
economic recession, all departments were asked to identify budget efficiencies where possible
in order to provide budget reduction opportunities as part of the FY 2009-10 budget process.
Reductions were not made across the board, but rather were reviewed with the goal of
minimizing service level impacts to our citizens. Part of the proposed reductions related to
shrinking the size of the workforce. Departments were allowed to unfund positions, meaning the
budget for those positions would be eliminated at this time but the position would remain as a
vacancy. This allows for personnel budget reductions without layoffs, and provides an
opportunity to restore the workforce once economic conditions improve.
With the downturn in the economy, it is important to continue to keep an eye focused on the
future to ensure the City remains in good financial health. To achieve that end, the following
policies were set:
Minimize service level impacts to our citizens.
No growth in maintenance and operations for FY 2009-10.
No new programs will be considered unless required under a legal mandate.
Identify new revenue generation opportunities.
Carefully review open positions prior to filling.
No new positions in FY2009-10
Generally, be prudent in budgeting. Consider cost containment measures and budget
discretionary items at minimum levels.
The City uses an “Expenditure Control Budget” (ECB) process in budgeting. In the ECB
approach, each department is given a block appropriation containing sufficient funds to provide
the current level of services for the upcoming year. As Carlsbad is a growing city, the block
appropriation should contain sufficient funds to pay for inflationary increases as well as growth
in the customer base. Typically, each year the block is increased by an index for growth and
inflation. However, for FY 2008-09 maintenance and operations remained at the FY 2007-08
levels due to the slower economy. In preparing the FY 2009-10 budget presented here,
maintenance and operations costs were reduced from the FY 2008-09 levels due to the
continuing downturn in the economy. No additional appropriations are expected during the year
except in the case of a significant unanticipated event. Amounts that are unspent at the end of
the fiscal year will be carried forward to the new fiscal year. At the end of FY 2008-09, the
amounts carried forward by each department will be capped at no more than 10% of the
previous year’s adopted budget.
Budgeted Expenditures
Through the application of these guidelines and policies, the FY 2009-10 Operating Budget of
$191.1 million was developed.

2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-8
Position Changes
A total decrease of 13.5 full-time positions is reflected in the FY 2009-10 Operating Budget, as
compared to the FY 2008-09 original Adopted Budget. The total decrease is a combination of
the unfunding of 12 full-time or limited-term positions (9 unfunded in the FY 2009-10 budget and
3 unfunded in the budget reductions in January 2009) and the elimination of 1.5 full-time
positions. The unfunded positions provided an opportunity for departments to realize salary
savings while still maintaining a position count for the vacant position, which could be budgeted
again in a future year once the economy improves.
The FY 2009-10 Operating Budget includes the elimination of 1.5 full-time positions: the
Administrative Secretary position in Administrative Services and a 0.5 limited-term Management
Intern. In addition, a 0.5 Network Engineer full-time position in the Information Technology
Department has been adjusted to a part-time position. A reduction of a 0.5 part-time limited-
term Legal Intern is also included.
The net increase in hourly staff totaled approximately .61 of part-time staff as follows: an
increase of .11 part-time positions in Park Maintenance for the first full year of maintenance for
the Poinsettia Park Tennis Courts and an increase of 0.5 part-time positions due to reclassifying
a full-time position to part-time in the Information Technology department, as mentioned above.
These changes result in a City workforce of 712.75 full and three-quarter time employees, 3.5
limited term employees, and 138.44 hourly, full-time equivalent positions. 12 of the full-time
and limited term positions are not funded in the FY 2009-10 budget. In addition to the changes
mentioned here, there are approximately 14 current vacant positions that will be frozen in order
to generate additional expenditures savings during the year if needed. Combined, this will result
in approximately 28 fewer positions providing services than in previous years.
New Facilities
The City has a large number of major capital projects scheduled to be built over the next five
years. As the City completes these projects, the costs of maintaining and operating the
facilities, including additional personnel if necessary, are added to the Operating Budget. The
new Poinsettia Parking Lot project and related landscaping is scheduled for completion in
August 2009. No new positions will be added as existing positions will be reallocated to provide
maintenance for this new addition.

Position Changes
A total decrease of 13.5 full-time positions is reflected in the FY 2009-10 Operating Budget, as
compared to the FY 2008-09 original Adopted Budget. The total decrease is a combination of
the unfunding of 12 full-time or limited-term positions (9 unfunded in the FY 2009-10 budget and
3 unfunded in the budget reductions in January 2009) and the elimination of 1.5 full-time
positions. The unfunded positions provided an opportunity for departments to realize salary
savings while still maintaining a position count for the vacant position, which could be budgeted
again in a future year once the economy improves.
The FY 2009-10 Operating Budget includes the elimination of 1.5 full-time positions: the
Administrative Secretary position in Administrative Services and a 0.5 limited-term Management
Intern. In addition, a 0.5 Network Engineer full-time position in the Information Technology
Department has been adjusted to a part-time position. A reduction of a 0.5 part-time limited-
term Legal Intern is also included.
The net increase in hourly staff totaled approximately .61 of part-time staff as follows: an
increase of .11 part-time positions in Park Maintenance for the first full year of maintenance for
the Poinsettia Park Tennis Courts and an increase of 0.5 part-time positions due to reclassifying
a full-time position to part-time in the Information Technology department, as mentioned above.
These changes result in a City workforce of 712.75 full and three-quarter time employees, 3.5
limited term employees, and 138.44 hourly, full-time equivalent positions. 12 of the full-time
and limited term positions are not funded in the FY 2009-10 budget. In addition to the changes

The total budget for the General Fund
for FY 2009-10 is $109.1 million, which
is 3.2% less than the previous year’s

Eliminating or unfunding full-time
positions and proposed citywide
personnel savings from vacancies

approximately $1.4 million of
reduced costs in salaries. Other reductions also occurred in part-time salaries and
management incentive pay. These total reductions are somewhat offset by the increases in
salaries budgeted to occur in FY 2009-10 due to labor contracts. Benefits make up the
remainder of the personnel costs and, due to labor contracts with the city’s employee groups,
much of the remaining cost has been previously determined. This year there is also a slight
decrease in the projected Workers’ Compensation costs due to decreased projected claims.
M & O stands for Maintenance and Operations. This category contains the budget for all

Transfers are amounts anticipated to be transferred from the General Fund to another City fund.
The transfers included in this year’s proposed budget are to the following funds:
$6.5 million to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund - for major maintenance and

$177,000 to the Storm Water Program for reimbursement for the General Fund portion
of Storm Water expenses.
$488,118 to the Information Technology Internal Service Fund of previously budgeted
non-departmental contingency to be used to purchase new capital equipment.
Advances are amounts anticipated to be transferred from the General Fund to another City fund
and are expected to be repaid to the General Fund in future years. The advances included in
this year’s proposed budget are to the following funds:
$166,500 to the Median Maintenance Special Revenue Fund – This advance is needed
to cover a cash shortfall since yearly assessments collected from property owners do not
cover operating expenditures.
$1.6 million to the Golf Course for operations - The Golf Course is a relatively new
facility and there is very little history to support the budget development. The Golf
Course’s budget and financials are on a calendar year basis. The Carlsbad Public
Financing Authority approved the 2009 Golf Course Budget including an advance of $1.6
million from the General Fund.
$204,000 to the SCCRDA – The South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Area is not
projecting to generate tax increment for FY 2009-10. However, there are activities that
need to be performed to help generate tax increment producing projects within the area,
such as the Ponto Development. Once more development occurs in this area, it is
anticipated that the SCCRDA will be able to repay the General Fund advances.
Repayments are also included in the FY 2009-10 General Fund budget. The General Fund has
advanced money to several funds and two funds are repaying a portion of those advances as
follows:
$136,000 is being repaid from the Storm Water Fund for a loan made from the General
Fund to help establish this fund.
$500,000 in interest is being repaid from the Village Redevelopment Area for advances
made to the Village Redevelopment Area for tax increment generating projects.

2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-11
The Policy/Leadership Group includes all elected officials and the City Manager’s
Office. The 6.4% decrease from FY 2008-09 is primarily due to proposed reductions in
maintenance and operations costs in the City Manager’s office and the Communications
Department.
The 6.9% decrease from FY 2008-09 in Administrative Services is primarily due to an
elimination of one Administrative Secretary position, a reduction in Human Resources
recruiting expenses, and a reduction in funding for leadership development.
The 1.4% growth in Public Safety, which includes Police and Fire, reflects the
negotiated increases in personnel costs.
In the Community Development area, which
includes Planning, Economic Development, and
Building Inspection, the 6.4% decrease is due mainly
to unfunding positions and reducing part-time,
overtime and temporary staffing, which can be
achieved based on the decrease in development and
planning activities due to the current state of the
economy.
Community Services includes Parks and Recreation,
Library, and the Arts. Reorganization opportunities
resulting in operational efficiencies have allowed for a 0.5% budget decrease. The
decrease represents reductions in part-time salaries as well as a variety of reductions in
miscellaneous maintenance and operations, including decreased park maintenance, as
a result of the economic recession.
Public Works shows an overall decrease of 1.2%. The decrease reflects the unfunding
of several full-time positions, where the duties will be absorbed by full-time or part-time
employees or supplemented with contracted services. In addition, due to the economic
recession, reductions in maintenance and operations will be implemented by
reorganizing work and reducing service levels. The slowing economy has also allowed
for reductions in the Engineering Plan Check Department due to decreased activity.
Non-departmental expenses include the transfers previously discussed as well as
administrative and other expenses not associated with any one department. The
decrease of 21.8% is attributed to the elimination of management incentive pay,

proposed citywide personnel savings from vacancies and other efficiencies, and

The Council Contingency account is available to the City Council for unanticipated
emergencies or unforeseen program needs during the year. It is budgeted at $0.5
million, or less than 1% of the FY 2009-10 General Fund Budget. This is a reduction of
$0.8 million from the adopted FY 2008-09 budget, as revised by the City Council in
January 2009.
General Fund Expenditure History
As reflected in the chart to
the left, the City began to
slow its expenditure
growth in FY 2007-08 in
anticipation of the
economic slowdown. The
chart shows a 4.8% mid-
year reduction in January
2009 to further reduce
expenditures to keep in
line with anticipated
General Fund Revenue.
Changes in Other Funds
Special Revenue funds, at $10.5 million, are down 6.3% from last year. This decrease is
mainly due to a large capital purchase of $250,000 from the Police Asset Forfeiture Fund of a
Police mobile command post occurring in FY 2008-09 that will not reoccur in FY 2009-10, and a
reduction in COPS Grants and Community Development Block Grant projects.
Enterprise funds total $54.6 million, which is an increase of $6.8 million, or 14.2% over the
FY2008-09 revised adopted budget. The most significant change is in Water operations and the
cost of purchased water. Combined fixed and variable costs for potable water purchased from
the San Diego County Water Authority are estimated at $22.9 million, an increase of $4.9 million
over the revised 2008-09 adopted budget. In addition to purchased water costs, the City’s cost
to maintain its aging infrastructure has risen. The budget includes increased funding for
maintenance and repairs, electricity, and a meter replacement program.
Wastewater operations increased only slightly (0.7%) over the revised adopted budget. The
operating budget includes additional funding for maintenance items such as chemical purchases
for odor control at lift stations, and software to better manage data collected by the sewer
camera van. These increases were offset by a decrease of $740,000 to the annual replacement
fund transfer.
The Internal Service funds total $15.1 million, which is about the same as the previous year.
The Internal Service funds are self-supporting through user charges. Changes occurred in a
number of these funds:
The Risk Management budget shows a decrease of approximately $190,000 based on
unfunding of 0.5 positions as well as current estimates of settlements and premiums

The Vehicle Maintenance Fund budget has decreased by about $80,000 in FY 2009-
10. This reflects reductions in the budgets for parts and outside vehicle maintenance
expenses.
The Vehicle Replacement Fund budget varies from year to year depending on the
vehicles to be replaced. The budget for the Fund is $576,000 more than the previous
year, or a 57.7% increase. A list of the requested vehicles can be found at the end of
this document.
The Information Technology Fund shows a decrease in the Department’s budget of
approximately $350,000. This decrease is mainly due to decreases in major capital
outlay. A list of planned major capital outlay requests can be found at the end of this
document.
The Redevelopment Agency budgets have decreased about $100,000 from the
previous year.
SUMMARY
This Operating Budget for FY 2009-10 emphasizes maintenance and operation of the City’s
current infrastructure. Being conscious of the economic slowdown, no new programs or
expanded levels of service are included in the budget. The 10 year financial forecast is of
concern since there are several years reflecting deficits and other years reflecting lower
projected surpluses than in previous years’ forecasts. The City will need to monitor its revenues
and expenditures closely and may need to further reduce expenditures in the following two
years if the assumptions made regarding the recession’s length and recovery proves accurate
to ensure we live within our means through these turbulent and uncertain economic times. The
10 year financial forecast is a useful tool to help manage our way through the economic
uncertainty.
The City of Carlsbad has a diverse revenue base and is in a good economic position; however,
Carlsbad is not immune to the economy. The planning and foresight by the City Council and
residents have provided a sound economic base for the City. Fiscal conservatism, which has
consistently been the city’s overall approach to managing its finances, is even more important
during this economic recession.
The challenges for the future will also include transitioning from a developing City to a fully built
City; it will be about managing costs while continuing to look for appropriate revenue streams
sufficient to pay for the services desired by the citizens. This year’s budget reflects the
anticipated achievement of Council’s vision and goals for the City. It allocates the available

This plan will provide essential City services to all who live, work, and play in Carlsbad.
2009-10 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-13
The Vehicle Maintenance Fund budget has decreased by about $80,000 in FY 2009-
10. This reflects reductions in the budgets for parts and outside vehicle maintenance
expenses.
The Vehicle Replacement Fund budget varies from year to year depending on the
vehicles to be replaced. The budget for the Fund is $576,000 more than the previous
year, or a 57.7% increase. A list of the requested vehicles can be found at the end of
this document.
The Information Technology Fund shows a decrease in the Department’s budget of
approximately $350,000. This decrease is mainly due to decreases in major capital
outlay. A list of planned major capital outlay requests can be found at the end of this
document.
The Redevelopment Agency budgets have decreased about $100,000 from the
previous year.
SUMMARY
This Operating Budget for FY 2009-10 emphasizes maintenance and operation of the City’s
current infrastructure. Being conscious of the economic slowdown, no new programs or
expanded levels of service are included in the budget. The 10 year financial forecast is of
concern since there are several years reflecting deficits and other years reflecting lower
projected surpluses than in previous years’ forecasts. The City will need to monitor its revenues
and expenditures closely and may need to further reduce expenditures in the following two
years if the assumptions made regarding the recession’s length and recovery proves accurate
to ensure we live within our means through these turbulent and uncertain economic times. The
10 year financial forecast is a useful tool to help manage our way through the economic
uncertainty.
The City of Carlsbad has a diverse revenue base and is in a good economic position; however,
Carlsbad is not immune to the economy. The planning and foresight by the City Council and
residents have provided a sound economic base for the City. Fiscal conservatism, which has
consistently been the city’s overall approach to managing its finances, is even more important
during this economic recession.
The challenges for the future will also include transitioning from a developing City to a fully built
City; it will be about managing costs while continuing to look for appropriate revenue streams
sufficient to pay for the services desired by the citizens. This year’s budget reflects the
anticipated achievement of Council’s vision and goals for the City. It allocates the available
funding in a manner that maintains the City’s infrastructure and proactively plans for the future.
This plan will provide essential City services to all who live, work, and play in Carlsbad.

City staff to easily maintain their area specific content.
Improved the use of software and information systems used by City staff. Implemented Microsoft Collaboration
Services - this includes Outlook email, Live Meeting and Sharepoint. Additionally, by providing these services
through a hosted environment, costs have been reduced and IT staff time can be devoted to strategic initiatives. . Further refined the City-wide multi-year Strategic Technology Road Map. The Road Map brings together people,
information and technology to create a plan showing how resources should work together to support the
business of the City.
In conjunction with Human Resources and Risk Management staff, conducted a needs analysis for a Human
Resources lnformation System (HRIS). An effective HRIS can manage all employee information such as name,
department, job title, salary, salary history position history, training, benefits selected and more. The goal of HR
technology is the help HR professionals get their daily business done quickly so they can focus their time on
more strategic or consultative work. A vendor was chosen, and the product / solution are set to go before the
Leadership Team for revlew in early FY 09110.
With the use of an outside security firm, completed a City-wide security audit on a broad range of computer
network security issues. The audit provides a comprehensive report on current status as well as a future
strategic plan to improve the security of our systems and information. lnformation from this audit allowed the
lnformation Technology and Finance Departments to deploy a web-based bill pay system for Utility Billing.
In conjunction with staff from the Developmental Services areas, established an information system plan to
leverage technology to optimize development services processes, ensuring an information system that is
reliable, predictable, and fast.
KEY GOALS FOR 2009-10:
Expand the Business Intelligence Data Warehouse program which combines and transforms information from
disparate sources and makes that information directiy accessible. This will reduce the need for IT to write many
reports that are often used to address a onetime and immediate query. More accessible information enables City
Staff to more readily explore opportunities, create strategies, and conduct analysis which can assist in their decision
making abilities,
Further the modernization of the city's network infrastructure. This initiative focuses on networklweb infrastructure
replacements, upgrades and improvements that began in FY 2008-09. This effort includes continued
implementation of securlty infrastructure and practices identified in the security roadmap defined in the FY 2007-08
security audit; and operational efficiencies to be gained through desktop virtualization. Just as virtualization of our
network servers has increased utilization and efficiencies in the data center, desktop virtualization has even a
greater potentiai to reduce hard costs, support costs and increase user flexibility.
With a newly implemented city Web site, built upon a strong, scalable and multi-use platform, the City is positioned
to more easily provide additional online services and access to information to our constituents. Consistent with the
E-Government Act of 2002, the Web site supports many citizen facing and efficiency improvement initiatives the City
seeks to employ. In general, the e-government initiative will promote use of the internet and other information
technologies to provide increased opportunities for citizen participation in Government; and at the same time
improve the ability of the City to achieve agency missions and program performance goals.
To cope with today's always connected buslness environment. we need to equip staff with the toois they need to
focus on their work. Employees can produce work more efficiently, work together in teams from different locations to
arrive at business critical insights, forge better relationships with customers and partners, and effectively manage
unexpected situations as business conditions change. Enabling thls kind of productivity requires a drategic
approach to collaboration - one where we streamline our operational environment and reduce the number of point
collaboration solutions used Our goal is to implement a single, scalable technology to provide city staff integrated
communications, collaborative workspaces, access to information and people, and automated workflow processes.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES: . Some of the part-time positions at the Senior Center will be scaled back due to the economic recession, and will
be lee unfunded at this time. The impact to the senior population is expected to be minimal since we wili be
adjusting our part time and volunteer schedules to help offset these changes. Two areas will be affected by the
change. The first is that the vacancy associated with the fourth van driver will not be filled. Secondly, we will
meet the needs of assisting customers at our front desk wlth volunteers, rather than part-time staff. . Due to the economic recession, as well as a review of core sewices and programs within the division,
responsibility for planning and holding the Senior Safari events will be transferred to an outside agency. Due to
this change, maintenance and operation costs to the city for this activity will be eliminated and the Senior Safari
Alde 0.5 part-time position will be unfunded at this time. . Part- time staff hours of 0.07 will be transferred to the Parks Division, decreasing the total pall-time count from

WORK PROGRAM:
Fleet Operations is an Internal Service fund within the City, which provides continuous repair and maintenance
service for City-owned vehicles and equipment operated by City departments. Fees developed on a cost recovery
system based on a per-milelhour charge by class of vehicle generate revenues to this department. This program
involves all facets of vehicle repair, maintenance, and parts; ensures that adequate supplies of fuel and oil are
available to operating departments, and administers the collection and disposal of hazardous waste generated by
City departments. The 'in-service' fleet is comprised of 333 vehicles and 149 other pieces of equipment.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES: . The number of Preventative Maintenance events, and the number of outsourced repairs are decreasing. This is
due to a concerted effort on the part of Fleet Management to be more selective on what work is performed in-
house vs. what is sent to a contract vendor. Preventative Maintenance Schedules have been revised to improve
efficiency, while still following manufacturers' guidelines and ensuring safety. Intervals have been extended from
3,000 miles to 5,000 miles, where appropriate. . For FY 2009-10, Fleet Maintenance Staff will be implementing new Fleet Management software, to improve
buslness processes and help better utilize the fleet data that is collected.
A total of 0.10 positions have been reallocated. This includes removal of 0.2 FTE for a Warehouse Specialist,
and the addition of 0.1 FTE, representing the time of the Public Works Manager, General Services, which was
reallocated from Parks Maintenance due to the transfer of lhis division to the Parks and Recreation Department.
In an effort to save budget dollars, one vacant position, an Equipment Technician II, has been funded at the
level of an Equipment Sewice Worker. This will result in somewhat decreased levels of service from this
position, but will give Fleet Operations flexibility during uncertain financial times.
Additionally, cuts have been made to Parts and Outside Vehicle Maintenance due to the economic recession.
While some impact on customers may be realized, these cuts can be absorbed by improving efficiency and
working with vendors on pricing.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-1
OVERVIEW
The City of Carlsbad Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a planning document that outlines
the expenditure plan for future capital projects and the corresponding revenues to pay for those
expenditures. The CIP is a financial planning document, not a commitment for spending. All
construction costs are estimates and are reviewed and further refined each year. Spending
authorization is given only at the time the City Council formally adopts the proposed budget, and,
at that time, funds are only appropriated for the following fiscal year. Information is shown in
subsequent years to provide the most comprehensive snapshot of all the known future facilities
the City of Carlsbad plans to construct.
The Fiscal Year 2009-10 Capital Improvement Program outlines approximately $70.4 million in
new appropriations to provide additional funding for the continuation of existing projects as well
as funding for new projects. Projected revenues during the same fiscal year are estimated at
$58.7 million. Revenues are collected as building permits are issued; as the need for facilities
arises, the money is used to fund the new facilities. As
the City continues to grow and develop, there is a
corresponding increase in the demand for development-
related services and new facilities. To ensure that the
necessary infrastructure and facilities are built on a
schedule that meets or exceeds this demand, the
citizens of Carlsbad adopted a Growth Management
Plan in 1986. The Growth Management Plan states that
unless a standard level of facilities is available to meet
new demands resulting from the City’s growth,
development cannot proceed. This Plan is the
foundation for making decisions about the timing and prioritization of the capital projects under
consideration. A discussion of the City's Growth Management Plan is located at the end of this
report.
The remainder of the report explains the process and the results of the City’s plans for its capital
facilities. A large increase in the cost of construction materials has occurred over the past four
years, pushing up the cost of projects. With the economic recession, the increases in the cost of
construction materials are expected to moderate over the next two to three years.
Proposition C was approved by the voters of Carlsbad in November 2002. It allowed the City to
expend over $1 million (per project) of general funds to help finance the following projects:
• City/Safety Training Center
• A portion of Cannon Road – East of College (Reach 4)
• Trails and Open Space
• A Swimming Pool Complex
After the voters approved the ballot initiative, the City set aside $35 million for Proposition C
projects. Currently, $16.2 million has been appropriated for Alga Norte Park, $13.7 million has
been appropriated for the Joint First Responders Training Facility, and $100,000 is allocated for
design of a City Administrative Training Facility. A remaining balance of $5.0 million is available
to help fund Proposition C projects.
It is still anticipated that the City will meet its growth management standards. This reflects the
Council’s continued commitment to construct the facilities as needed to serve the current and
anticipated development occurring throughout the City.
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM

PROJECT EVALUATION
What is the definition of a CIP project? Projects that are shown in the CIP are generally defined
as any construction (or reconstruction/replacement) of major infrastructure such as streets,
libraries, parks, fire stations and administrative facilities, water, sewer and drainage facilities, and
other facilities that are located on or in the ground. In most cases, the total construction cost of
each of these assets is recorded and tracked as part of the City’s inventory of capital
infrastructure assets and other City-owned property.
The CIP and the Operating Budget are integral
parts of the total City financing plan. Staff began
the process by evaluating the construction
schedules for City facilities in conjunction with the
workload of the staff needed to complete the
projects. Staff also met with the City Council to
identify their priorities. In the FY 2009-10 CIP,
there are approximately 225 continuing and new
projects planned through buildout. All projects
were analyzed using the criteria shown in the
table. Project timing was reviewed, and an
evaluation of the availability of capital
construction funds as well as operating funds
was then factored into the evaluation process.
CAPITAL PROJECTS
The following two sections provide information about the major capital projects. The first section
focuses on projects planned in the next five years, and the second section contains an overview
of the entire expenditure plan through the buildout of the City. All construction costs are
estimates and only projects scheduled for FY 2009-10 are appropriated. The information shown
in the future years reflect the most comprehensive snapshot of the known future facilities and
their associated cost at this point in time.
THE NEXT FIVE YEARS…
PARK PROJECTS
The City has planned a number of park projects over the next 5 years which will enhance the
recreational opportunities for Carlsbad’s residents and allow the City to meet the standards for
park acreage as set forth in the growth management plan. Some of the more significant projects
are listed below.
• Alga Norte Park and Aquatic Center – This park site consists of 30 acres in the Southeast
Quadrant with planned amenities that include ball fields, soccer fields, picnic areas, tot lots, a
skate park, a dog park, restrooms, parking facilities, and an aquatic center. The aquatic
center will include a 55-meter competition pool, a 12-lane instructional pool and a therapy
pool as well as a water play area for toddlers (Phase I). In addition, a moving river, water
slides and wet play structure are planned for Phase II. A swimming pool complex was one of
the projects approved by the voters through Proposition C in 2002. The total cost of the park
and aquatic center - Phase I is estimated to be $39.8 million. Total appropriation for the park
and Phase I and Phase II of the aquatic center is currently at $50.4 million.
Project Ranking Criteria
1. Is the project required to ensure the health
and safety of the citizens, as the result of a
legal mandate, or to maintain compliance
with the City’s Growth Management Plan?
Are operating funds available to operate the
facility?
2. Is the project needed soon for growth
management compliance?
3. Is the project needed now for other City
standards (example: ball field standards)?
4. Does the project complete or provide part of
the basic infrastructure (example: a linking
road segment)?
5. Are there other reasons to construct the
project (example: Council priority, timing or
funding opportunity, public demand)?
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-3
• Leo Carrillo Park – Phase III – The third phase of this historic park facility
includes renovation of additional buildings, construction of additional
restrooms, an arboretum area, and transformation of a barn into a
community theater. The total cost is approximately $2.4 million and
design is expected to begin in FY 2013-14.
CIVIC FACILITIES
Civic facilities include a variety of facilities from which the City can offer its
services to the public. Many of these are still in the preliminary design stage and will be further
defined over the next several years.
• Public Works Center – The construction of the Public Works Center and associated
improvements include offices, shops, a yard, warehouse and parking to accommodate the
Public Works Department. The cost of the project is approximately $28.1 million.
• Fire Station No. 3 Relocation – Fire Station No. 3 is currently
located at the corner of Chestnut and Catalina. As the City grows
eastward, relocation of this station is needed to help ensure the
five-minute response time. The new station is budgeted as a
6,200 square foot facility and the current proposed site is in
Robertson Ranch. Total cost is projected at $7.5 million.
• Joint First Responders Training Facility – Carlsbad’s Joint First
Responders Training Facility is planned for construction on a site at the Carlsbad Safety
Center adjacent to Fire Station No. 5, at a total cost projection of $24.5 million. Preliminary
plans for this facility include a 25-lane shooting range, a 4-story fire training tower, a 2-story
residential training facility, and an outdoor seating pavilion.
STREET PROJECTS
Traffic congestion continues to be one of the top concerns among citizens. To help improve the
flow of traffic throughout Carlsbad and to keep the City’s streets in top condition, there are a
number of street projects expected to be completed in the next five years. Some of the larger
street projects include:
• El Camino Real Widening – Tamarack to Chestnut – The project includes the widening of El
Camino Real to prime arterial roadway standards. Current cost estimates have been updated
due to the need to acquire additional roadway right-of-way and the actual design of the
retaining walls along both sides of the roadway. The refined scope of work results in an
increase to the project’s total estimated cost of $4.3 million, bringing the total estimated cost
of the project to $12.3 million. Appropriations of $4.7 million are being requested in FY 2009-
10.
• El Camino Real Medians – The project is the construction of the missing segments of the
medians along El Camino Real. Current cost estimates have been updated, resulting in an
increase to the total estimated costs of $2.7 million, of which $1.1 million is being requested in
FY 2009-10. The revised total estimated cost of the project is $5.2 million.
• Pavement Management –Carlsbad’s local streets are maintained on a regular cycle to ensure
a good riding surface and to extend the life of the street. Part of that maintenance program is
the sealing and overlay of the existing street surface. In addition, any problem areas are
addressed as they are identified. The FY 2009-10 CIP has $4.5 million budgeted for this
program which includes an advance of $1.0 million from the FY 2010-11 funding program to
complete the overlay of College Blvd. from Faraday Ave. to Palomar Airport Road in a timely
manner and will reduce the amount of costly removal and reconstruction work that could
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-4
result from delays.
• Concrete Repair – This is a companion program to the pavement management program. It
will insure that curbs, gutters and sidewalks are also properly maintained. By allocating the
funding, both pavement and concrete replacements can be accomplished at the same time.
This will help maximize efficiencies and reduce inconvenience to Carlsbad citizens. The FY
2009-10 CIP has $350,000 budgeted for this program.
• Carlsbad Boulevard Encinas Creek Bridge Replacement – Complete replacement of the
existing bridge, originally constructed in 1913, is planned in the next 5 years at an estimated
cost of $2.5 million.
• Poinsettia Lane Reach E - This project includes completion of the final link along Poinsettia
Lane between Cassia Road east to Skimmer Court. The total cost is approximately $13.5
million and the City expects to begin the design in FY 2013-14.
WATER/ WASTEWATER PROJECTS
The City’s water and wastewater projects are a vital component to the continued health and
welfare of its citizens. Most new lines are built and paid for by developers. As the City ages, it
will become necessary to repair and replace the lines that already exist, and an increase in these
projects is anticipated in future years.
• Vista/Carlsbad Interceptor & Agua Hedionda Lift Station Replacement – The project consists
of constructing a parallel sewer interceptor system to accommodate existing and future sewer
flows from the cities of Vista and Carlsbad. The individual projects include a parallel force
main in Jefferson Street, replacement of the Agua Hedionda Lift Station, and a parallel gravity
main from the Lift Station to the Encina Wastewater Facility. New appropriations of $31.4
million are included in the FY2009-10 CIP for the Vista/Carlsbad Interceptor projects. The
overall total cost estimates for all years for the five components of this project have increased
approximately $2.9 million, for a total cost of $47.4 million, of which $14.7 million is to be
funded by the City of Carlsbad, with the remainder of $32.7 million to be funded by the City of
Vista.
• Wastewater Lines – Other major wastewater lines scheduled for construction or replacement
within the next five years include:
– Buena Interceptor Sewer Improvements
– Home Plant Lift Station Replacement
– North Agua Hedionda Sewer Replacement
• Water Lines – Major water lines scheduled for construction or replacement within the next five
years include:
– Carlsbad Boulevard – South of Avenida Encinas
– Maerkle Transmission Main
– Tri-Agencies Water Transmission Pipeline Replacement
• Maerkle Reservoir Storage – Construction of a buried 16 million gallon water storage
reservoir next to the existing reservoir is planned in order to provide additional emergency
storage and meet the 10-day storage criteria based on ultimate demands. The total cost is
estimated at $14.8 million.
• Hydroelectric Pressure Reducing Station at Maerkle Reservoir - On April 14, 2009, Council
authorized staff to move forward with the development of a hydroelectric pressure reducing
station at the Maerkle Reservoir. This electricity generating project will provide a renewable
energy source for the City. The cost estimate for this project is $1,250,000.

• Veterans Memorial Park – This project is located south and east of Agua Hedionda Lagoon
adjacent to the City Golf Course, The Crossings at Carlsbad. The Master Plan includes the
following improvements: community leisure needs, open space interpretive area, parking and
maintenance facility. Other suggested uses for this park include an amphitheater complex,
sports complex, conference center and numerous other active/passive recreation amenities.
Approximately 30% of future expenditures are planned for street and traffic signal construction
projects. Included in this category is construction of major roadways that will add east to west
and north to south connections as well as provide additional routes to the neighboring cities of
Oceanside, Vista, and San Marcos. Sections of these roads are already under construction by
developers. Additional roadway projects include replacement of the Carlsbad Boulevard Encinas
Creek Bridge, several road-widening projects, and funding for sidewalk construction, concrete
repair work and pavement overlay. Currently there are about 20 traffic signals identified and
recommended for construction in future years.
Wastewater and drainage projects are expected to cost over $112.9 million, which includes
approximately $53.8 million in sewer replacement projects. Funding is also provided for the
repayment of bonds for the expansion of the Encina Wastewater Facility, and the Encina Water
Pollution Control Facility projects.
Future water projects include construction of new waterlines, both potable and recycled,
concurrent with new development. Some of the major areas in which these installations or
upgrades are planned include segments of College Boulevard and Poinsettia Lane. Replacement
of existing potable and recycled waterlines is also included in this category, and additional
reservoirs are planned to increase storage for ultimate demands. In addition, $28.0 million is
planned for known replacement projects.
Construction of Civic facilities such as libraries, administrative facilities, police and fire facilities
are currently estimated at $79.1 million of the total planned capital expenditures to buildout.
UNFUNDED PROJECTS
There are several projects identified in the CIP for which there is no identifiable funding source
and in some cases where only partial funding has been identified. The City will investigate
obtaining possible outside funding such as Federal and State grants, loans, or other financing
sources. Once funding is identified for these projects the project costs will have to be reviewed
and updated to reflect actual cost estimates. The unfunded projects do not receive annual
inflationary increases. These projects are:
• Business Park Recreational Facility (partial)
• Cannon Lake Park (6.7 Acres)
• Cannon Road - Reach 4 – Cannon Rd./College to City Limits
• Carlsbad Boulevard Mountain View to Northerly City Limits (partially funded)*
• Carlsbad Boulevard/Palomar Airport Road Improvements (partially funded)*
• Hosp Grove/Buena Vista Lagoon Improvements
• Palomar Airport Road Widening and Bridge Reconstruction
• Pine Avenue Park – Madison Property
• Robertson Ranch (NE Quadrant) Park Development (partial)
(*) These projects are in the revised TIF fee program approved by the City Council on May 5,
2009, which was planned to generate enough revenue to pay for approximately 20% of the total
cost. The remaining portion is unfunded.
.
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-7
FUTURE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
There are a variety of revenues that are used to fund the capital
projects. In order to estimate future revenues from development,
several assumptions about the rate and type of future development
need to be made. These assumptions can change from year-to-
year and correlate with the economic climate.
Every year, City staff evaluates all existing and future private development projects and compares
this information to the buildout capacity of the City using adopted general plans. Information
about existing development activity combined with estimates of how remaining net developable
land might develop are then summarized to prepare future projections about when and where
residential and non-residential development will occur. Finance Department staff prepares cash
flow schedules using current fund balances combined with future estimated fees paid by those
developments, then compares the available funds to the expenditure plan to ensure that funding
will be sufficient for construction of the capital projects as planned in the CIP. In addition to
evaluating whether or not capital funds are sufficient, significant operating cost impacts and
availability of staff resources are also considered to evaluate the timing of projects. Where
funding discrepancies occur, alternative financing methods and project timing are again evaluated
and recommendations are made to resolve the discrepancies.
Residential development has slowed significantly due to the economic recession. The number of
annual building permits issued is projected to decline compared to the previous five-year period.
The development schedules of the remaining vacant parcels are driving the timing of the future
units. There are approximately 5,044 units remaining before the City is predominantly built out.
Residential development for FY 2009-10 is projected at 74 units with an average about 150 units
per year over the next five years. This is compared to an average of over 638 units per year for
the previous five-year period. The decline, particularly in the next 5 years, is due to the current
economic downturn and the dwindling supply of developable land.
The amount of non-residential development is projected to also decline significantly over the next
five years. The average annual square feet of non-residential development for the past 5 years
was about 1,129,000. For FY 2009-10, the estimate is for 245,000 square feet, and the average
annual development for the next 5-year period is approximately 509,000 square feet per year.
Projects include several neighborhood commercial/retail developments located in or near the
areas where most of the residential development has occurred or where new development is
planned over the next several years. In the southeast quadrant, commercial projects include retail
and restaurants, and a daycare facility and church. A senior care facility is planned in the
northeast quadrant. Other commercial developments are planned at Robertson Ranch and Bressi
Village; there are also two hotels anticipated. Industrial development consists of various new
office and industrial projects, as well as expansion of existing projects at Kelly Corporate Center
and Legoland. The desalination plant is also anticipated within the next five years. Development
estimates provide the data and basis for estimating future fee revenues, which are calculated by
multiplying each applicable development fee by the estimated number of dwelling units and/or
square feet of construction expected during each year. The following table shows the number of
residential units and non-residential square feet of development used in calculating estimated
revenues for FY 2009-10 and subsequent years to buildout.

REVENUES
Revenues for Capital Projects from now until buildout are estimated to be approximately $600.9
million and are segregated into five major categories: (1) fees generated by development in
Carlsbad, (2) special district fees and taxes (Community Facilities Districts and Bridge and
Thoroughfare Benefit Districts), (3) Water and Wastewater Replacement funds, (4) Infrastructure
Replacement funds (other than wastewater and water), and (5) Other sources including grants,
bond issues, and contributions from other agencies.

Revenue Estimates FY2009-10 to Buildout
Total Revenue = $600.9 Million
Approximately 28.3% of all capital revenue is received as a result of development, and is
dependent upon assumptions made about the City's annual growth in dwelling units and
commercial/ industrial square feet. Development revenues include Public Facilities Fees (PFF),
Traffic Impact Fees (TIF), Park-In-Lieu Fees (PIL), Planned Local Drainage (PLD) Fees, Water
Connection Fees (MFF), and Sewer Connection charges. Revenue from special districts, such
as Community Facilities Districts (CFD) and Bridge and Thoroughfare Benefit Districts (BTD)
comprise 7.7% of the total. Water and Wastewater replacement revenues generated by user
fees equal approximately 23.3% of total revenues, and are used to pay for replacement of
existing water and sewer facilities. Infrastructure replacement revenues, equal to 22.8%, are
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-9
transfers from the City’s General Fund which are being set aside to pay for replacement of major
capital facilities other than wastewater and water facilities. The remaining 17.9% consists of
revenues from other agencies and include federal and state grants, the county sales tax program
(TransNet), redevelopment agency revenue, and contributions from cities and other agencies.
CALCULATION OF FUTURE FEES
The revenue projections of the Capital Improvement Program reflect the growth assumptions
identified in the previous section. The following information delineates how those assumptions
were applied to estimate future development revenues. The mix of multi-family and single-family
residential units is assumed to be 35% and 65% respectively and reflects the anticipated mix of
residential development for each Local Facilities Management Zone. The building permit
valuation used for computing Public Facilities Fees is $178,633 per multi-family dwelling unit, and
$315,200 per single-family dwelling unit. A building permit valuation of $42 per square foot of
construction is used to calculate non-residential Public Facilities Fees.
In order to calculate estimated revenues for Traffic Impact Fees (TIF), the number of average
daily trips was computed for each type of development use. A multi-family residential dwelling
unit is assigned eight trips per day and a single-family unit is assigned ten trips per day. The
trips-per-day value for commercial and industrial buildings are 40 and 8 trips per 1,000 square
feet of development, respectively, although the actual volume of trips generated by
commercial/industrial building can vary widely depending on the ultimate land use.
CFD #1 is a citywide district established to finance various civic facilities required under the City’s
Growth Management Plan. CFD #3 was established for the Faraday Avenue and Melrose Drive
Extensions east of El Camino Real, as well as the extension of El Fuerte. This project
encompasses the extension of Melrose Drive from Palomar Airport Road to the Carlsbad/Vista
city limits and the extension of Faraday Avenue from Orion Way to Melrose Drive in Vista.
Park-in-Lieu Fees are collected for the purchase and development of
parkland within each quadrant of the City, and the fees are based on
the acquisition cost of parkland. Projects in the CIP funded with Park-
in-Lieu Fees include future park site acquisition, development and
restoration.
There are two existing Bridge and Thoroughfare Fee Districts (BTD), which were formed by
property owners to finance specific road construction projects located within each of the district
boundaries. Poinsettia Lane - Aviara Parkway (BTD No. 2) was formed to finance the
construction of Poinsettia Lane between Aviara Parkway and El Camino Real and Aviara
Parkway between Palomar Airport Road and Poinsettia Lane. BTD No. 3 (Cannon Road West)
was formed to fund portions of Cannon Road from Interstate 5 to El Camino Real. Although
construction of this project is complete, revenues collected from future development within the
district will be used to repay an advance that provided interim funding to complete the project.
SUMMARY
The FY 2009-10 to Buildout CIP is being driven by the City’s commitment to ensure that facilities
are available to service the developing areas as well as the current residents. Carlsbad’s
philosophy has been to build quality capital facilities, which meet, and at times exceed, Growth
Management standards. Phasing projects over a period of years to match funding availability for
construction and operations is often used to meet the needs of growth management. The FY
2009-10 to Buildout Capital Improvement Program reflects the commitment of Carlsbad’s City
Council and staff to continue providing its residents with a better quality of life.
2009-10 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
I-10
GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Growth Management Plan was developed and voted into law by the citizens of Carlsbad in
1986. The plan was established to manage development within the City by linking residential,
commercial, and industrial development directly to standards for availability of public services and
facilities.
The Growth Management Plan has established precise standards for eleven public facilities.
Standards must be met at all times as growth occurs. Facilities for which standards have been
established are as follows:
- City Administrative - Library
- Wastewater Treatment - Parks
- Circulation - Drainage
- Fire - Open Space
- Schools - Sewer Collection
- Water Distribution
The plan requires that appropriate public facilities be available, in conformance with the adopted
performance standards, as development occurs. Unless all of the eleven public facility standards
have been met, no new development can occur.
The Growth Management Plan impacts both the Operating Budget and the Capital Improvement
Program. The detailed level of planning required by Growth Management has allowed Carlsbad’s
Capital Improvement Program to anticipate the funding needed for capital improvements through
buildout of the City. The timing of construction of facilities is governed by the rate of development
and the eleven performance standards. New public facilities often require additional staffing and
other resources, which affects the Operating Budget. Facilities such as community centers,
parks, and fire stations have been constructed and opened to the public under this program.
The Capital Improvement Program has been designed to specifically address areas where new or
expanded facilities will be needed to maintain compliance with the adopted performance
standards. With the adoption of the FY 2009-10 CIP, compliance with the Growth Management
Plan is continued.

ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
The City's accounting system is designed around a few basic principles.
1. The City is not one single entity. It is the total of many entities, each with its separate
function and legal restrictions on the use of resources. In the private sector, a corporation
may have many "subsidiaries" which make up the parent corporation; in the public sector,
a city government may have a variety of "funds" that provide the basis for separately
recording the financial data related to a specific entity. A fund is an accounting entity with
a complete set of self-balancing accounting records. Each fund has been established
because of some restriction on the use of resources received by that fund. This report
includes the transactions of all entities over which the City Council of the City of Carlsbad
have authority (as defined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board).
2. The City's accounting system operates on a modified accrual basis for all governmental
type funds. Governmental funds include the General, Special Revenue, Debt Service,
and Capital Projects funds. A modified accrual system is one where (a) revenues are
recognized when they are both measurable and collectable within the accounting period,
or soon enough after the end of the period to pay liabilities of the period; and
(b) expenditures, other than principal and interest on long-term debt, are recorded when
liabilities are incurred.
3. The proprietary fund types (the Enterprise funds and the Internal Service funds) use the
accrual method of accounting. Revenues are recognized in the period earned and
expenses are recognized in the period incurred.
4. Internal controls exist with the accounting system to ensure safety of assets from
misappropriation, unauthorized use or disposition, and to maintain the accuracy of
financial record keeping. These internal controls must be established consistent with the
sound management practices based on the costlbenefit of the controls imposed. The cost
of a control should not be excessive in relation to its benefit as viewed by City
management. The internal controls in existence within the City's system are sufficient to
ensure, in all material aspects, both the safety of the City's assets and the accuracy of the
financial record keeping system.
5. Budgetary control is maintained through monthly reports on all revenue and expenditure
accounts as well as special reports summarizing the financial position of the City. The
City Council has authority to control the budget through adoption of a formal budget at the
beginning of each year and by amending the budget as necessary throughout the year.
Expenditures should not exceed budgeted figures. All appropriations expire at year-end
unless specifically carried into the new fiscal year by Council actions. The Carlsbad
Municipal Code requires that the Financial Management Director prepare annually the
budget for the City Manager showing estimated revenues and expenditures.
6. Controls on the use and transfers of budget funds are outlined in the adopted budget
resolution in the appendix of this document.

Exhibit 6A
CITY OF CARLSBAD
GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
The Appropriations Limitation imposed by Proposition 4 and modified by Proposition 111
creates a restriction on the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year.
The revenues which are subject to the Limitation are those considered "proceeds of taxes." The
basis for calculating the Limit began in fiscal year 1978-79 and is increased based on population
growth and inflation.
The major change made by Proposition 11 1 allows the City to annually choose among the
following options for calculating its Gann Limit:
> Population growth of Carlsbad, OR
9 Population growth within San Diego County, AND > Growth in California per capita income, OR > Growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction in the City.
The factors used to calculate the 2009-10 Limit were:
> Population growth in Carlsbad. AND
Growth in California per capita income
The formula is outlined below:
2008-09 Expenditure Limit $190,695.381
% Carlsbad Population Growth
Growth in California per capita income
Net Increase Factor
2009-10 Limit (2008-09 Limit X Factor) $1 94,185.106
Current Appropriation of Proceeds of Taxes
(Subject to the Limit)
The spending limit for the City of Carlsbad for 2009-10 is $194.2 million, with appropriations of
"proceeds of taxes" of $94.7 million. The result of the calculation provides the City with an
operating margin of $99.5 million.
