READER’S GUIDE TO THE BUDGET
i
This budget document was designed to provide the public concise and readable
information about the City of Carlsbad’s 2018-19 adopted budget. The budget is
separated into three major sections: the Overview, the Operating Budget, and the
Capital Improvement Program.
Overview
The beginning of the budget document contains the City Manager’s transmittal letter and
overview information. The overview information will provide summary data to the reader
for the Operating Budget and the Capital Improvement Program, as well as information
on personnel allocations, debt management issues and the budget process.
Operating Budget
The Operating Budget section has six tabbed sections. The first section provides a
summary of the Operating Budget and the remaining five sections provide detailed
budget information for five main functional areas. The summary section begins with a
budget overview, including revenue assumptions, information on the policies used to
develop the budget, and an overview of expenditures. The overview is followed by tables
providing detailed information on fund balances, revenues and expenditures. The
following five sections are separated by functional area, which are Policy and
Leadership, Administrative Services, Community Services, Public Safety, and Public
Works. Within these broad categories, the budget is organized on a department, or
program group, basis. Summaries, financial and descriptive, are included for
departments containing more than one program. The summary page is followed by
detailed information for each program. Some departments consist of one program only,
and thus only one page is included for them. A financial history and the 2018-19 budget
figures are presented for each summary and program. If applicable, narrative
statements are also included describing program activities, associated workload
measures or performance objectives, key achievements for 2017-18 and key goals for
2018-19.
Capital Improvement Program
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is located in the back of the budget document.
An overview of the CIP provides general information about the process used in
preparing the budget for capital projects and describes how development information is
used to project future revenues that fund these projects. In addition, major CIP projects
are highlighted and discussed. The next section contains summary revenue and
expenditure tables, by funding source, and a detailed project expenditure schedule
listing the cost and timing of each future and current CIP project. Following this
schedule are fund summary pages, which list the revenues and expenditures by fund,
thus providing cash flow information and annual projected fund balances for each
Capital Improvement Program fund.
Appendices
The Appendices contain a detailed listing of the 2018-19 Planned Major Capital Outlay
items by department. An Out-of-State Travel Detail is presented next. The last section
of the Appendices provides statistical information, an overview of accounting systems
and budgetary control, a glossary, the adopted Resolutions for the budget including the
Gann Limit, and a list of acronyms.

City Council Strategic Policy Goals
Become a leader in multimodal transportation systems and creative approaches to
moving people and goods through and within Carlsbad.
The City Council expects Carlsbad to become a leader in the broad array of plans and
systems that support more efficient and effective means of moving people and goods
around and through Carlsbad and the region, including technology that improves traffic
signal coordination and vehicle operation. Major regional projects, including the
McClellan-Palomar Airport master plan update, double tracking of the railroad, widening
of I-5 and reconfiguration of the I-5/78 interchange, require continued policy-level
involvement to ensure Carlsbad’s interests are reflected in project design and
implementation.
Plan for a new city hall that will meet the future workplace and operational needs of the
city and the community.
Plan for a new city hall that will be a point of pride for citizens while greatly improving
efficiency and effectiveness by centralizing an employee base that is currently spread
through many facilities. A strategic approach to locating city operational functions will
provide better coordination among city functions and enhanced customer service.
Promote education to increase civic engagement and attract and retain talent in
Carlsbad.
The City Council will take a stewardship role in encouraging the development of high
quality educational experiences that foster economic development, civic engagement and
community leadership. This goal will be pursued through the continuation of ongoing
programs and as new opportunities arise, and as such, no specific FY 2017-18 Work Plan is
proposed. Future status reporting will be provided on an as needed basis.
Enhance Carlsbad’s coastline to ensure an exceptional experience in all the ways people
want to enjoy it.
The Carlsbad coastline is a critical element of the city’s identity. The City Council is
committed to making policy decisions to ensure Carlsbad’s coastline maintains the
character the community loves while enhancing access, amenities and mobility to a level
consistent with Carlsbad’s high-quality community standards. This includes partnering
with State Parks, which currently controls most of Carlsbad’s beaches. This goal also
includes physical changes that will enhance natural beauty, better manage traffic flow,
expand walking and biking opportunities, improve safety and create a uniquely Carlsbad
experience.
Lower the railroad tracks in a trench through the Village to improve safety, community
connectivity, quality of life and economic value.
The busy rail line that runs through the core of the community divides Carlsbad. Railroad
traffic, which will increase significantly in coming years, has adverse effects on the City of
Carlsbad, especially in the area between the Agua Hedionda and Buena Vista lagoons.
With the planned addition of a second, parallel track through the Village and Barrio, the
city has an opportunity to lower the tracks below street level, similar to what has been
done in other coastal communities. Achieving this goal would improve safety and increase
coastal access. Without this change, the future quality of life and business climate in the
Village would be irreparably harmed, the Barrio would remain cut off from the coast, and
public safety would be severely compromised.
Enhance the health and vitality of the Village and Barrio, two neighborhoods that
represent the historic heart of Carlsbad.
The city has made significant investments in the revitalization of the Village and Barrio,
starting with “Redevelopment” and continuing with public-private partnerships and city
funded infrastructure improvements. A new Village and Barrio Master Plan is nearing
completion, and achieving the vision developed with the community through the master
planning process will require continued policy focus and investment.
ABOUT THE CITY OF CARLSBAD
iii
The City of Carlsbad is a unique coastal
community located 35 miles north of the
City of San Diego and surrounded by
mountains, lagoons, and the Pacific
Ocean. The city is governed by a five-
member City Council under the
Council/Manager form of government.
Although the “village” dates back more
than 100 years, Carlsbad incorporated in
1952 as a General Law city, and in 2008
became a Charter city. Currently, the city
is over 90 percent developed and is
expected to grow from a current
population 114,622 to 120,000 or more,
once its 39 square miles are built out.
Industries in the area include a major
regional shopping center; a specialty outlet
center; 40 hotels offering just over 4,600
rooms, 668 timeshares and 236 registered
short term vacation rentals for tourist
lodging; over 25 auto franchise dealerships; information and communications technology; life
sciences; clean technology and action sports manufacturing.
The city provides the full range of services normally associated with a municipality including
police, fire, parks and recreation, library and cultural arts, planning and zoning, building and
engineering, various maintenance services, and administration. The city provides water
services through the Carlsbad Municipal Water District, a subsidiary district of the city. The City
Council serves as the Board of Directors for the Carlsbad Municipal Water District. Solid waste
collection is provided through a franchise agreement with a local refuse collection service.
In addition to the usual city services, Carlsbad offers a wide variety of programs to help local
residents. The city’s Housing Authority administers federal housing assistance to approximately
600 very low and extremely low-income households in Carlsbad. Older Carlsbad residents
receive assistance through the city’s senior citizen programs.
School programs and facilities are provided by four top ranking school districts located within
the city boundaries. The City Council has no direct control over these school districts; however,
the Council recognizes the importance of quality school facilities and programs to Carlsbad’s
residents. Thus, the Council and staff work with the school districts on a regular basis.

CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

The city’s budget is comprised of two pieces, the Operating Budget and the Capital Improvement
Program (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 $276.1 million and is expected to generate $287.8 million
in revenues. The CIP contains the current year budget allocation of $66.2 million and outlines
approximately 240 future projects at a total cost of $459.8 million. Capital revenues for Fiscal
Year 2018-19 are estimated at $49.7 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 providing a broad overview of
the services and projects planned for the 2018-19 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
At the beginning of each year, the City Council meets to develop goals that help city staff prioritize
programs, projects and services, as well as the resources required to fund them. Based on this
direction, along with input received at public workshops, city staff finalizes the overall city work
plan and develops the proposed annual budget for the coming fiscal year. The City Council
adopts the formal budget for all funds prior to the beginning of each fiscal year and may amend
those budgets throughout the year, as necessary. The legal level of budgetary control is at the
fund level and budgetary control is maintained through the city’s accounting system.
Expenditures may not exceed budgeted amounts at the fund level.
The Carlsbad City Council has set a vision to make Carlsbad a truly world class city by fulfilling
the core values outlined in the community’s vision of the future, with a particular emphasis in
several strategic areas of focus.
City of Carlsbad Community Vision
• Small town feel, beach community character and connectedness
Enhance Carlsbad’s defining attributes—its small town feel and beach community
character. Build on the city’s culture of civic engagement, volunteerism and philanthropy.
• Open space and the natural environment
Prioritize protection and enhancement of open space and the natural environment.
Support and protect Carlsbad’s unique open space and agricultural heritage.
• Access to recreation and active, healthy lifestyles
Promote active lifestyles and community health by furthering access to trails, parks,
beaches and other recreation opportunities.
• The local economy, business diversity and tourism

• Walking, biking, public transportation and connectivity
Increase travel options through enhanced walking, bicycling and public transportation
systems. Enhance mobility through increased connectivity and intelligent transportation
management.
• Sustainability
Build on the city’s sustainability initiatives to emerge as a leader in green development
and sustainability. Pursue public/private partnerships, particularly on sustainable water,
energy, recycling and foods.
• History, the arts and cultural resources
Emphasize the arts by promoting a multitude of events and productions year round and
cutting-edge venues to host world 6class performances, and celebrate Carlsbad’s cultural
heritage in dedicated facilities and programs.
• High quality education and community services
Support quality, comprehensive education and lifelong learning opportunities, provide
housing and community services for a changing population, and maintain a high standard
for citywide public safety.
• Neighborhood revitalization, community design and livability
Revitalize neighborhoods and enhance citywide community design and livability. Promote
a greater mix of uses citywide, more activities along the coastline and link density to public
transportation. Revitalize the downtown Village as a community focal point and a unique
and memorable center for visitors, and rejuvenate the historic Barrio neighborhood.
In FY 2018-19, the city organization will continue to focus on achieving the nine core values that
make up the Carlsbad Community Vision.
In April 2018, the City Council formalized the following annual Strategic Policy Goals:
• Work with state legislators and California State Parks to execute a long-term coastline
management agreement by October 2018.
• By April 2019, amend duties of the Traffic Safety Commission to include advising the City
Council on matters related to implementation of the General Plan Mobility Element.
• Enhance the health and vitality of the Village and Barrio by obtaining all agency approvals
needed to implement a Village and Barrio Master Plan by 2020.
• By 2023, break ground on a new city hall at a site designated for a future civic center
complex.
• By 2023, break ground on lowering the railroad tracks in a trench through the Village to
improve safety, community connectivity, quality of life and economic value.
The capital improvement and operating budgets will also enable the city to continue its excellent
level of service to the community by investing in core services such as infrastructure maintenance,
police and fire services, parks and open space management and economic development.
Carlsbad’s operating budget is a tool that guides the achievement of the Council’s vision, goals,
and priority projects for the city. The budget allocates resources to city programs in accordance
with priorities established by residents and the Council. Thus, it is an integral part of making
Carlsbad a wonderful community in which to live, work and play. In addition, the budget is fiscally
conservative and balanced, and provides a blueprint to effectively sustain the community and
essential city services far into the future.

ECONOMIC PROFILE
The US economy appears to be transitioning to a period of accelerating growth, with tightening
labor markets and increased business spending. March unemployment, according to the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), reached 4.1 percent and this unemployment rate is expected to drop as
aging workers leave the work force. For the first time in years, inflation has become a concern,
currently exceeding 2 percent and expected to rise over 3 percent in 2020, according to the most
recent UCLA Anderson forecast. The combination of an expanding economy and tight labor
markets will likely spur action on the part of the Federal Reserve in coming years, driving up
interest rates. Although the Trump administration’s pursuit of balanced trade via tariffs on certain
imports, such as aluminum and steel, is a concern to economists, the trade deficit is expected to
remain and grow as increased demand by American consumers is met with imported goods. A
heating economy, combined with recent legislation to reduce income taxes and increased federal
spending, will likely keep GDP growth strong over the next few years and make it very likely that
interest rates will rise substantially.
According to data from S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller for January, home prices continue to surge
ahead at 6.4 percent compared to a year ago. According to David M. Blitzer at S&P, the growth
in home prices since the bottom of the recession in 2012 has been twice that of GDP growth.
Inventories nationwide remain low, at 3.4 months compared to a norm of 6 months inventory.
Despite low inventories and low vacancy, economists are not expecting a boom in new housing
starts, as mortgage rates continue to rise amid the economic conditions discussed previously.
Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Seattle have seen double digit increases in prices in the past
year.
US GDP is forecast
to remain close to 3
percent until 2020,
when UCLA
economists forecast
a cooling as GDP
falls below 3
percent. The
Federal Reserve
will likely raise
interest rates
several times in
2018 and the
federal funds discount rate is expected to almost double, to 3.3 percent in 2020, as the Fed tackles
inflationary pressures of tight job markets and increasing prices in commodities, such as gasoline.
The effect on housing prices remains to be seen.
The California economy is faring well, with consistent economic growth over the past four years
at a rate that is topped only by the state of Washington. This economic growth has been sustained
in a period when a temporary tax was made permanent and cost of living, especially housing, is
very high. Data from January indicates that California employment hit an all-time high of close to
17 million jobs, compared to 14.3 million in 2010. Key areas of recent growth were seen in health
care and social services and leisure and hospitality, both of which outpaced increases in the tech
industry.
The California economy is expected to benefit from recent federal fiscal policy, which pursues
increased deficit spending. An increase in the demand for durable goods and technologies from
the Department of Defense is expected to bolster manufacturing and engineering business in
Southern California. Changes in federal tax regulations will likewise boost California’s economy

as businesses purchase capital assets. Employment growth, according to the UCLA Anderson
forecast is expected to top 2 percent in 2018 and gradually taper off to less than 1 percent growth
in 2020. Over the same time period, a tight labor market is expected to keep personal income
growth above 3 percent over the next few years. According to CoreLogic data, Southern
California home prices hit a record in March, with the median home price at $519,000, an increase
of 8.4 percent compared to March 2017. Total residential building permits are expected to
increase by 11 percent in 2018, according to UCLA Anderson. Taxable sales in California are
expected to grow by 3.3 percent in 2018. Tourism also remains strong, with average daily room
rates increasing by almost 3 percent compared to last year.
Data used by the
University of San Diego to
create the Index of
Leading Economic
Indicators continued a
16th month of advances
and projects positive
economic growth in San
Diego County for the
remainder of 2018.
Residential building
permits increased in
February, but at a slower
pace than the previous
two months. The
unemployment rate in
San Diego fell to 3.5
percent in February,
compared to 4.4 percent
at the same time last
year. The largest gains in
employment were witnessed in professional and business services and education and health
services, according to the Employment Development Department. Tourism in San Diego
continues to thrive, with overnight visits up by 12 percent in February, year over year, and
corresponding visitor spending up by over 11 percent for the same period.
The chart above reflects the historical trend in USD’s Leading Economic Indicators. The index,
which measures local stock prices, help wanted advertising, and other pertinent metrics,
increased by 0.5 percent in February, extending the positive outlook.
According to CoreLogic analytic data, the median home price in San Diego increased by 6.8
percent to $550,000 in March, compared to a year ago. The number of homes sold during that
same time period fell by 5.6 percent, likely sustaining home prices and countering some of the
effects of higher mortgage rates. 30-year fixed mortgage rates have risen from 4 percent, last
April, to 4.58 percent, this April. The rental market in San Diego offers a muddled picture, with
average rents increasing to record levels in March, up 8 percent from the prior year. However,
new inventory has helped drive vacancy rates over 4 percent, a level not seen since 2014.
The Carlsbad economy generally moves in line with the county and the state. Property taxes
for this year, fiscal year (FY) 2017-18, are projected to see an increase of almost 4 percent
compared to the previous year, as assessed values remain strong in real estate and some
additional development has entered the inventory. Transient Occupancy tax (TOT) paid by hotel
guests, increased by 3 percent for the same period, which is being driven primarily by an increase
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-8
in the average daily rate (ADR) that hotel guests are paying. Sales tax revenues are projected to
end FY 2017-18 at $36.5 million, an improvement of 5.6 percent, as we continue to see strength
in restaurants, new auto sales, department stores, and some additional occupancy at the
Shoppes at Carlsbad. Overall, General Fund revenues are expected to end the current year up
2.5 percent as some smaller revenue sourced, such as those related to development, have fallen
slightly during the year.
Housing prices in Carlsbad have accelerated in the past year, as can be seen in the
accompanying graph. According to data from CoreLogic, the median price of a single-family
residence (SFR) being resold is $989,000, an increase of over 21 percent compared to this time,
last year. Price increases for resale SFRs are positive in all quadrants, although both 92008
(northwest quadrant) and 92009 (southwest quadrant) saw double digit growth. Condominiums
have also seen large increases, citywide, and now top a median sales price of $600,000.
According to data from Movoto, inventories are up 17 percent over last year and homes are
staying on the market for 29 days. Total assessed property values in Carlsbad are $29.4 billion
for the current fiscal year, an increase of almost 6 percent. The city is expected to add almost
1,700 new residential units over the next five years.
From 1992 to 2008, commercial and industrial development in Carlsbad averaged approximately
1.1 million square feet per year. As opportunities for new development diminish, commercial and
industrial development is tapering off, falling to an average of approximately 315,000 square feet
per year over the next five fiscal years. Large industrial and commercial developments in the next
five years include a Westin, Carlsbad Oaks, and the expansion of the ViaSat campus.
Commercial office space vacancy has witnessed a decline over the past several years, falling
from over 30 percent in the last quarter of 2009 to 19.3 percent in April 2018. Industrial vacancy
is 7.5 percent (9.1 percent, last year) and retail vacancy remains relatively stable at 2.7 percent
(2.4 percent, last year), according to data from CoStar.
Commercial development has brought much needed entertainment and shopping venues to
citizens and visitors alike, as well as generating additional sales tax to help pay for city services.
Carlsbad is home to Car Country Carlsbad – an auto mall; the Carlsbad Premium Outlets – a
specialty outlet center; The Shoppes at Carlsbad – a regional shopping mall; a Costco center;
and the Forum at Carlsbad – a commercial center with upscale retail shops, restaurants and other
commercial uses. A new Lowe’s opened in fall 2013 and La Costa Town Square opened in FY
2014-15.

Development has also enhanced Carlsbad’s reputation as a destination resort for tourism. The
city is host to a major family theme park, Legoland, and has two luxury resorts available for its
visitors, the Park Hyatt at Aviara and the La Costa Resort & Spa. There are also a number of
other quality hotels and motels in the city, with the most recent additions being the Hilton
Oceanfront Resort & Spa (recently renamed Cape Rey Carlsbad, a Hilton Resort) and the
Legoland California Resort. New rooms will be added to the inventory in FY 2018-19 at the
Sheraton, with over 70 of those rooms under the Westin brand.
The City of Carlsbad opened a municipal golf course in the summer of 2007, which has further
enhanced the tourism attractions the city offers. The municipal golf course, the Crossings at
Carlsbad, is an 18-hole, destination golf course set in the rolling hills and canyons of Carlsbad.
With ocean views, high quality golf experience, a first-class restaurant and clubhouse, and
linkages to hiking trails, the Crossings at Carlsbad is a destination spot for golfers and non-golfers
alike.
It is the Council’s goal to ensure that the city remains in good financial health, and there are a
number of steps the city has taken to attain that goal. One of the steps is the Growth Management
Plan. This plan was adopted by the citizens to ensure that all necessary public facilities were
constructed along with development. It also ensures that a financing plan is in place to pay for
the facilities prior to the development of the property.
In addition to the Growth Management Plan, the city also prepares a long-term financial model
for both capital and operating needs. With a growing city such as Carlsbad, it is imperative that
the city plan for the impacts of development, constructing and operating new public facilities, and
planning for resources needed to build them. Thus, the city 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 a portion of General
Fund revenues 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.

As national and local economic conditions remain stable, Carlsbad is well-positioned to reap the
benefits of a diverse business composition. Over the past decade, the city has developed an
economic base that attracts business, tourism, and retail consumers. The city hosts four regional
shopping areas within its boundaries; an auto mall, a large regional mall, an outlet center, and a
high-end retail center in the southern part of the city called The Forum. A strong tourism industry
is served by Legoland and a host of resorts and hotels, as mentioned previously. All of these
factors, combined with relatively stable property values, provide a strong revenue base to support
the high level of city services for residents. In FY 2017-18, the city is expected to generate $123.8
million, or almost 80 percent of General Fund revenues, from three main sources: property taxes,
sales taxes, and transient occupancy taxes (TOT).
Overall, for FY 2017-18, General Fund revenue is projected to increase by 2.5 percent from the
previous year. Most major sources of tax revenue are expected to increase in FY 2018-19,
including property tax, which is expected to grow by 5.4 percent. Sales tax is projected to increase
3.4 percent and TOT revenues are projected to increase by almost 11 percent as occupancy and
average daily rates (ADR) increase. The forecast captures additional room inventory from the
Sheraton and Legoland hotels in FY 2018-19. Property values continue to appreciate, as
discussed earlier. Development related revenues are forecast to decrease by over 35 percent in
FY 2018-19, compared to the previous year, a trend that is expected to continue as buildout is
approached.
State of California – In January, Governor Jerry Brown submitted the proposed
budget to the legislature. He continues to call for fiscal vigilance and caution as he
expects the state to experience another recession at some point in the near future.
Although he maintains committed to spending for schools, infrastructure, and health
and welfare programs, he also cites the importance of addressing staggering liabilities
and maintain the Rainy-Day Fund.
The proposed FY 2018-19 state budget proposal recognizes that spending has increased
markedly in the past five years, as California legislated an increase in the minimum wage that will
ultimately see $15 per hour and the expansion of health care for millions of Californians. The
proposed budget does not capture the effect of federal tax legislation passed in December, that
will likely have an impact on the state as Californians lose the ability to deduct state taxes on their
federal income tax returns. The Governor’s May budget revision assumes that the federal tax
changes will provide a temporary boost to the national economy and provide fiscal gains to many
Americans, however the full implications for the state’s taxpayers will not be known for many
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-11
years. The proposed budget also acknowledges the risks to the state’s financial position from
challenges to the Affordable Care Act, noting that if this legislation is overturned by Congress, it
would cost California tens of billions from the General Fund, assuming the state would backfill
lost federal funding for these benefits. The proposed budget continues to increase funding for K-
12 education and for the California university systems and community colleges. Due to the recent
increase in the Gas Tax, the budget proposes $55 billion in spending over the next decade on
transportation projects ranging from neighborhood roads to passenger rail improvements.
The governor’s proposed budget does not account for the recession he predicts, but he notes that
even a moderate recession could impact the states’ revenues by $20 billion. In order to prepare
for this eventuality, the budget proposes to increase the Rainy-Day Fund to its full reserve
requirement in FY 2018-19 of $13.5 billion, an increase of $5.1 billion over the current level.
Additionally, the budget addresses the staggering liabilities that plague the state. Of the unfunded
liability of $275 billion, $272 billion are related to the pension costs associated with state and
University of California employees. The state paid an additional $6 billion to CalPERS in 2017 in
an effort to mitigate this ongoing issue.
Looking Forward
In order to strategically address the future needs of the city and to ensure that the city maintains
a structurally balanced budget in the long term, the city prepares a ten-year financial forecast.
Revenue projections are developed based on current and forecasted economic variables at the
national, state, and local levels, and provide city leaders with some measurement of future
capacity to support city programs and services. In recent years, revenue growth has become
more difficult to project in the long-term, with an economic climate that changes rapidly and
unpredictably. The forecast allows decision makers to adjust for these changes. The ten-year
forecast is updated frequently to avoid potential pitfalls and to ensure that fiscal challenges are
identified and resolved, and to ensure the continued development of a balanced and responsible
budget.
During the Great Recession, the city took deliberate actions to ensure that the budget remained
structurally balanced. These measures included a reduction in full-time and hourly full-time
equivalent (FTE) positions, delaying the construction of non-essential capital projects, reducing
the funding for capital outlay and priority projects, reducing and/or eliminating cost of living salary
increases, requiring employees to pay a larger portion of their retirement costs, using technology
and other tools to create efficiencies, and reducing certain non-essential service levels with a
minimal impact to the community. The ten-year forecast identifies increasing labor costs as
CalPERS, the administrator for the city’s employee pension plan, embarks on a strategy to
remove risk from their investment portfolio. The city is taking steps to adjust to these increases
and provide ongoing resources to continue providing service levels expected by our stakeholders.
The ability to anticipate changes in revenue sources and to balance those resources against the
costs related to ongoing and future programs, services, and infrastructure requirements is critical
to the financial health of the city. The city relies on the General Fund forecast to effectively
manage fiscal resources and map a sustainable and responsible path for attaining the goals of
the community. The tumultuous economic environment experienced in the past few years makes
this long-term perspective even more important.
The forecast assumes limited growth in residential and commercial development over the next
decade and captures the expected revenue impacts from major projects that are expected to be
completed during the forecast period. Ongoing transfers to the Crossings at Carlsbad Golf
Course ceased last fiscal year, following Council action in the adopted budget to retire outstanding
construction debt almost twenty years ahead of the original maturity. The operating costs of new
city facilities projected in the Capital Improvement Program and supported by the General Fund,
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-12
such as Pine Avenue Community Center, are also captured in the forecast. Economic conditions
at the national, state, and local level are expected to continue to improve at a modest rate and to
provide a boost to most of the major revenue sources. Home prices, which saw large decreases
during the recession, continue to recover and are providing support to city’s property tax revenues
in the following years, and it appears that trend is continuing. Overall, the outlook for General
Fund revenues continues to be positive and revenues are expected to exceed ongoing operating
costs over the period of the forecast.
Note: FY16-17 includes one-time cost of $10.5 million for Fire Station No. 2 replacement and $14.8 million
for paying of the Golf Course construction bonds.
The forecast assumes that General Fund revenues will increase by 4.3 percent in FY 2018-19,
as economic conditions continue to improve, bolstering revenues from the property tax, sales tax,
and TOT. To project the expenditures, all known changes in personnel and maintenance and
operations costs are accounted for. However, the effects of future negotiations with employee
bargaining units are not contemplated in the current ten-year forecast. The forecast also captures
increases in operating costs associated with planned capital improvements, such as future parks
and civic facilities.
The forecast assumes that the city’s cost for employee health care will increase by 5.25 percent
in FY 2018-19 and will increase over the forecast period to 6.5 percent in future years. CalPERS,
the administrator of the city’s employee pension plan, continues with their risk mitigation strategy,
which involves lowering the assumed rate of return on pension assets from 7.5 percent to 7
percent over a three-year period. The results of this drop in assumed rate of return on our mature
pension plan will increase pension costs to the city in future years. FY 2018-19 will be the first
year in which the rate decreases, but the effects do not materialize in the forecast until FY 2019-
20, when we see a 15 percent increase in our annual required contribution (ARC). Annual pension
costs after 2019-20 are less severe and are assumed to normalize at an annual increase of 3
percent. The City Council took action to pay off approximately $9 million in the unfunded actuarial
liability during the budget adoption process for FY 2017-18, and if similar actions are taken in
future years, this will continue to decrease the city’s ARC, holding all other variables that affect
annual costs, such as investment returns, constant. CalPERS may take other actions in the
future, to continue to make the statewide pension fund more fiscally sustainable, and such action
will be captured in future forecasts. The state wide funded status for CalPERS hovers at around
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-13
70 percent. The forecast does not consider increases in staffing levels beyond FY 2018-19,
except those that may be related to the operating costs of new city facilities supported by the
General Fund. Negotiated salary increases and future salary growth projections are included in
personnel costs in the forecast, in order to provide a conservative estimate of future costs. The
contribution from the General Fund to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund is forecasted to
remain at 6.5 percent of General Fund revenues. Finally, the forecast includes estimated
operating costs for all capital projects in the timeframes shown in the Capital Improvement
Program (CIP).
As indicated in the graph on the previous page, the General Fund is balanced for FY 2018-19 and
revenues exceed expenses over the life of the forecast. Although the revenue forecast is positive,
Carlsbad faces the same challenges that plague the national and state finances, including
pension costs that are more volatile and the overall health of the economy. Despite these threats,
responsible fiduciary stewardship and planning have placed the city in a position to benefit from
even modest improvements in the economic environment.

The Appropriations Limitation imposed by Proposition 4 and modified by Proposition 111 (Gann
Limit) 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. Carlsbad’s appropriation limit is in excess of three times the annual
appropriation of proceeds of taxes subject to the limit. With such a large margin (approximately
$300 million), and in light of the city’s ten-year financial forecast, there is no time in the foreseeable
future where Carlsbad’s annual appropriation of tax proceeds would approach the limit. It is
unlikely the Gann Limit will ever be reached in the future.

FINANCIAL POLICIES
The city has a number of financial policies to not only safeguard city assets, but also to assist in
ensuring long-term financial stability.
LONG RANGE FINANCIAL PLANNING POLICIES
PURPOSE:
Financial planning uses forecasts to provide insight into future financial capacity so that strategies
can be developed to achieve long-term sustainability in light of a government's service objectives
and financial challenges.
A sound financial planning process assesses the long-term financial implications of current and
future operating and capital budgets, providing decision-makers with the long-term fiscal impact
of current policies and budget decisions. A good forecast recognizes the effects of economic
cycles and differentiates between revenue associated with one-time activities and revenue
derived as a result of base economic growth.
BACKGROUND:
Long-term financial planning is a best practice approved by Government Finance Officers
Association’s (GFOA) Executive Board. The best practice concepts related to long-term
financial planning are as follows:
It allows the city to execute a long-range financial plan and supports the overall city strategic plan.
It is a highly collaborative process that considers future scenarios and helps governments
navigate challenges.
Financial forecasting is the process of projecting revenues and expenditures over a long-term
period, using assumptions about economic conditions, future spending scenarios, and other
salient variables.
Long-term financial planning is the process of aligning financial capacity with long-term service
objectives.
GFOA recommends that all governments regularly engage in long-term financial planning that
encompasses the following elements and essential steps:
• Time Horizon. A plan should look at least five to ten years into the future. Governments
may elect to extend their planning horizon further if conditions warrant.
• Scope. A plan should consider all appropriated funds, but especially those funds that are
used to account for the issues of top concern to elected officials and the community.
• Frequency. Governments should update long-term planning activities as needed in order
to provide direction to the budget process, though not every element of the long-range
plan must be repeated.
• Content. A plan should include an analysis of the financial environment, revenue and
expenditure forecasts, debt position and affordability analysis, strategies for achieving and
maintaining financial balance, and plan monitoring mechanisms, such as scorecard of key
indicators of financial health.
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-16
• Visibility. The public and elected officials should be able to easily learn about the long-
term financial prospects of the government and strategies for financial balance. Hence,
governments should devise an effective means for communicating this information,
through either separate plan documents or by integrating it with existing communication
devices.
TEN-YEAR GENERAL FUND FINANCIAL FORECAST
• The Administrative Services Department will prepare and maintain a ten-year financial
forecast of revenues and expenditures for the General Fund.
• This tool will be used during the annual City Council goal setting and the development of
the annual operating and capital budgets.
• The financial forecast will be updated at least twice each year, or more often if unexpected
changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances warrant more frequent
updates.
• The plan will include impacts and timing of new facilities, programs, and mandates.
• Any significant changes will be reported to the City Manager and City Council.
STRUCTURALLY BALANCED BUDGET
• The city shall adopt an annual budget in which ongoing revenues equal or exceed ongoing
expenditures. If the long-range plan indicates periods where revenues may not equal or
exceed forecasted expenditures, options to correct the imbalance will presented for
consideration.
• Unexpected one-time revenues shall not be used to fund ongoing expenditures.
PLAN MONITORING: MONTHLY FINANCIAL STATUS REPORT
• Each month after the close of the books, the Finance Director will prepare and distribute
a Financial Status Report. The report will include, at a minimum, the following sections:
▪ General Fund Revenues – to provide information about the more significant General
Fund revenues, compared with the prior fiscal year, and compared with the current
fiscal year projections. Significant one-time and/or unplanned revenues are
discussed, as well as any other information considered helpful in understanding the
financial position of the General Fund.
▪ General Fund Expenditures – to provide information about General Fund
expenditures, compared with the prior fiscal year, and compared with the current fiscal
year projections. Significant one-time occurrences are explained, as well as any
trends or other information considered helpful in understanding the financial position
of the General Fund and the operations of the city. A table of expenditures by
department is provided with a current year budget-to-actual comparison.
▪ City Council Contingency – the annual adopted budget generally includes
authorization to appropriate funds (Council Contingency) to be used at the Council’s
discretion. Expenditures from this account are one-time expenditures and for items
expected to have a positive impact on the citizens and community of Carlsbad, such
as:
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-17
▪ Special Events
▪ Community projects
▪ Donations (usually for non-profit groups/organizations)
▪ Water and Wastewater Utility Operating Revenues and Expenditures – to provide
an overview of revenues and expenditures compared with prior year actuals and the
current year budgeted amounts. Since these are enterprise funds, operating
incomes/losses are discussed.
FIFTEEN-YEAR CAPITAL PROJECT FINANCIAL PLAN
• The Finance Department will prepare and maintain a fifteen-year financial plan for capital
project development and construction (this plan will include all funds that have capital
projects: such as the water and wastewater asset construction funds).
• The financial plan is updated at a minimum each fiscal year, or more often if unexpected
changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances prompt more frequent
updates.
• Annually in conjunction with the budget process, staff will review the proposed timing of
the projects in the plan to make sure that resources are available and that the timing is
appropriate.
• Any significant changes are reported to the City Manager and City Council.
• All known future revenues and expenditures are incorporated into the fifteen-year plan to
create cash flows, and any foreseen shortfalls are reviewed.
• If there is not sufficient funding projected to pay for a planned project, the project is still
shown in the project schedule, in the “unfunded” section. Staff will pursue funding options
for the projects on the unfunded list.
• Operating impacts of completed capital construction facilities are incorporated into the
General Fund ten-year financial forecast or the long-range financial plan of the funds
affected, as soon as the timing is relatively certain.
TEN-YEAR WATER AND WASTEWATER OPERATING FUND FINANCIAL FORECAST
• The Utilities Department and Finance Department will jointly prepare and maintain a ten-
year financial forecast of revenues and expenditures for the Water Operating Fund and
the Wastewater Operating Fund.
• The financial forecast will be updated at least once a year as part of the annual budget
process, or more often if unexpected changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen
circumstances warrant more frequent updates.
• Utility rates and charges will be evaluated annually and increases (or decreases) will be
recommended in order to meet the long-range financial objectives of each utility.
• Cost of Service study – The American Water Works Association (AWWA) recommends
that water utilities’ revenues from water service charges, user rates, and capital charges
(impact fees and system development charges) should be sufficient to pay for:
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-18
▪ Annual operation and maintenance expenses
▪ Capital costs including debt service and other capital outlays
▪ Adequate working capital and required reserves
A periodic cost of service study ensures that sufficient revenues are generated for the
above expenses, and that rates and charges are equitably established. The Utilities
Department and Finance Department will conduct a Water/Wastewater Cost of Service
review at least once every five years or as necessary due to significant changes in system
costs and/or system operations.
• Any significant changes will be reported to the City Manager and City Council.
OPERATING RESERVE POLICIES
PURPOSE:
To provide guidelines to the City Council and staff for establishing, maintaining and the annual
review of a minimum and target reserve level for the General Fund and proprietary funds listed
below.
BACKGROUND:
The city acts as a steward of public funds – one of the most significant responsibilities of the City
Council, Boards, and managers. Adequate reserves are a necessary component of the city’s
overall financial management strategy and can help offset current and future risks.
The establishment and adherence to fiscal reserve policies enables the city to:
• protect the interest of the public and provide rate stabilization and funding, if needed
• address short-term temporary unplanned losses (revenue and expenditure)
• provide stability during economic cycles, allowing the organization to weather significant
economic downturns
• address unfunded mandates
• manage the consequences of outside agency actions that may result in revenue
reductions
• address unexpected emergencies from natural disasters or catastrophic events caused
by human activity
• address excessive liabilities or legal judgments against the organization
• provide continuity in service delivery
It is the policy of the City of Carlsbad to maintain reserve levels as noted in the following sections,
for unforeseen events such as those listed above.
A review of all reserves listed below will occur as part of the annual budget process, and during
the rate-setting process for the wastewater and water utility enterprises.
GENERAL FUND
The city has a reserve policy in place (Council Policy 74) which sets a minimum reserve at 30
percent of the General Fund Operating Expenditures and a target reserve of 40 to 50 percent
unassigned fund balance of the General Fund Operating Expenditures. The reserve is calculated
using the prior fiscal year’s Adopted General Fund Budgeted Expenditures (including routine
operating transfers and the Council Contingency).
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-19
ENTERPRISE FUNDS
• Wastewater Operating Fund
▪ The city will target a reserve funding level of 40 percent. The reserve amount is
calculated by dividing unassigned fund balance by total budgeted operating expenses
plus replacement transfers plus budgeted debt service payments.
▪ The annual budget process and setting utility user rates and charges will be used to
achieve and maintain the target reserve level.
• Water Operating Fund
▪ The city will target a reserve funding level of 40 percent. The reserve amount is
calculated by dividing unassigned fund balance by total budgeted operating expenses
plus replacement transfers plus budgeted debt service payments.
▪ The annual budget process and setting utility user rates and charges will be used to
achieve and maintain the target reserve level.
INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
• Workers’ Compensation Fund
▪ The city will maintain a minimum reserve equal to the estimated outstanding claims
as calculated by a third-party administrator. Additional reserve amounts may be set
aside as deemed appropriate based on a third-party actuarial study completed at two
year intervals.
▪ During the annual budget process, the target confidence level will be compared with
the projected fund balance, and, if the projected fund balance is greater than or lesser
than the target, a plan to adjust the fund balance will be considered, using:
• Increasing revenues through interdepartmental charges
• One-time cash contributions from those funds contributing to the shortfall
• Risk Management Fund (General Liability)
▪ The city will maintain a minimum reserve equal to the estimated outstanding claims
as calculated by a third-party administrator. Additional reserve amounts may be set
aside as deemed appropriate based on a third-party actuarial study completed at two
year intervals.
▪ During the annual budget process, the reserve level will be compared with the
projected fund balance, and, if the projected fund balance is greater than or lesser
than the target, a plan to adjust the fund balance will be considered, using:
• Increasing revenues through interdepartmental charges
• One-time cash contributions from those funds contributing to the shortfall
CITY OF CARLSBAD BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
A-20
• Information Technology Asset Replacement Fund
▪ The city shall maintain a minimum reserve level defined as the amount of
accumulated depreciation of IT capitalized assets based on the original cost of each
capitalized asset, and up to a maximum reserve level defined as the accumulated
depreciation based on the estimated replacement cost (calculated annually by the
Information Technology Department) of each capitalized asset.
▪ If, during the annual budget process, the fund does not have sufficient cash balances
to achieve the minimum reserve level, a plan to increase cash balances will be
proposed using:
• Increasing revenues through interdepartmental charges
• One-time cash contributions from those funds contributing to the shortfall
▪ If, during the annual budget process, the fund has excess cash balances, a plan to
decrease cash balances will be proposed using:
• Decreasing revenues from interdepartmental charges
• One-time refunds to those funds contributing to the excess
• Vehicle Asset Replacement Fund
▪ The city shall maintain a minimum reserve level defined as the amount of
accumulated depreciation of capitalized Fleet assets based on the original cost of
each capitalized asset, and up to a maximum reserve level defined as the
accumulated depreciation based on the estimated replacement cost (calculated
annually by the Public Works Department) of each capitalized asset.
▪ If, during the annual budget process, the fund does not have sufficient cash balances
to achieve the recommended reserve level, a plan to increase cash balances will be
proposed using:
• Increasing revenues through interdepartmental charges
• One-time cash contributions from those funds contributing to the shortfall
▪ If during the annual budget process the fund has excess cash balances, a plan to
decrease cash balances will be proposed using:
• Decreasing revenues from interdepartmental charges
• One-time refunds to those funds contributing to the excess
GENERAL FUND ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY ASSIGNMENT
In addition to the operating reserve, on June 30, 2015, the City Council set aside $10 million from
the General Fund unassigned fund balance to mitigate revenue losses should another recession
occur. Unlike the General Fund reserve, these funds could be used for ongoing operating
expenditures to ensure the continuation of services with minimal impact to the public.
GENERAL FUND CALPERS RATE STABILIZATION ASSIGNMENT
On June 28, 2016, the City Council set aside $10 million from the General Fund unassigned fund
balance to mitigate CalPERS pension rate volatility, alleviating stress on ongoing resources.

On June 13, 2017, the City Council allocated $4.5 million from the $10 million pension stabilization
assignment, plus an additional $4.5 million from the General Fund unassigned fund balance, to
prepay $9 million of the CalPERS unfunded liability. This leaves a balance of $5.5 million set
aside as unassigned fund balance to mitigate future CalPERS pension rates.
On June 12, 2018, the City Council approved an additional $10 million from the General Fund
unassigned fund balance and $1 million from the Utility Enterprise Funds to prepay $11 million of
the CalPERS unfunded liability. The balance of the set aside remains unchanged at $5.5 million
and could be used to in the future to mitigate future CalPERS pension rates.
INVESTMENT POLICY
The city has also established a formal Investment Policy. It is the policy of the City of Carlsbad
to invest public funds not required for immediate day to day operations in safe, liquid and medium-
term investments that shall yield an acceptable return while conforming to all California statutes.
It is intended that the policy cover the investment activities of all contingency reserves and inactive
cash under the direct authority of the city. Investments of the city and its component units will be
made on a pooled basis; however, investments of bond proceeds will be held separately if
required.
FINANCING OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
Council Policy 33 outlines the city’s policies for financing public improvements, primarily to
complete links in the city’s traffic circulation system. Improvements generally include streets and
highways, sewer lines, water lines, drainage facilities, and other improvements as authorized by
law and which the City Council has determined are consistent with the policy.
The underlying principals behind the policy are:
• To protect the public interest;
• To ensure fairness in the application of the assessments, special taxes, or fees to current
and future property owners;
• To ensure full disclosure to current and future property owners of the special district;
• To ensure the creditworthiness of any special district debt;
• To protect the city's credit rating and financial position;
• To ensure that the applicants for special district proceedings, other than city-initiated
proceedings, pay all costs associated with the formation of any special district;
• To establish one policy regarding the requirements that must be met before the City
Council will consider approving the financing of public improvements using special
districts;
• To provide city staff, the residents of the city, and owners and developers of property
located within the city with guidance in the application for and consideration of the
establishment of special districts; and
• To incorporate the requirements of new legislation pertaining to the use of special districts.
The policy provides the framework for use of Assessment Districts, Community Facilities Districts,
and Bridge and Thoroughfare Districts. The public improvements must be located in the public
rights-of-way dedicated or otherwise granted to the city or other public agency, and construction
of the improvements must serve the public interest as well as the benefit conferred on the
properties within the proposed financing districts. The policy describes property owner
requirements such as concurrence of a certain percent of property owners wishing to establish
the special district, financial capability and stability of the property owners and proposed project,
as well as the steps of the formation process.
BUDGET SUMMARY

OPERATING BUDGET
Revenue Projections
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 $164.4 million for Fiscal Year 2018-19. The General Fund pays for most of the city services
available to city residents. The majority of the General Fund revenues are derived from taxes.
The following graph illustrates the sources of revenue to the General Fund.
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-23
Property tax, at $67.8 million, is the largest General Fund revenue. The city receives about 18
percent of the total property tax paid by its property owners. The remainder of the tax goes to the
school districts, the state, and other agencies. Sales tax is the second largest source of revenue
for the General Fund. Sales tax is estimated to bring in $37.7 million for Fiscal Year 2018-19.
Automobile and retail sales are the most significant contributors to the category of sales tax.
Transient occupancy tax (hotel tax) is estimated at $25.4 million and represents the third largest
revenue source for the city. Franchise tax, transfer tax, and business license tax make up the
remaining $11.7 million in tax revenues estimated to be collected in Fiscal Year 2018-19.
Intergovernmental revenues are revenues collected by the state and other governmental
agencies and allocated to the city based on a formula. Examples of intergovernmental revenues
include state mandated cost reimbursements and homeowner’s exemptions. Intergovernmental
revenues are estimated at approximately $880,000 for the upcoming year.
Licenses and permits account for $1.9 million of the General Fund revenues and include building
permits and other development-related permits. Charges for services are estimated to be $8.3
million and include fees for engineering, planning, building, recreation, and ambulance services.
Income from investments and property are estimated at $4.3 million.
Other General Fund revenue sources include charges collected from other departments, fines
and forfeitures, and miscellaneous revenues. Those sources total $6.4 million.
Special Revenue Funds
Revenues from Special Revenue funds are estimated at $12.3 million for Fiscal Year 2018-19.
Funds collected in this category are legally restricted to specified purposes. Examples of
revenues in this category include donations, grants, and special assessments. The types of
functions supported with Special Revenue funds include programs such as Section 8 Housing
Assistance, Housing Trust Fund, Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), and
maintenance and special benefit assessment districts.
Enterprise Funds
Enterprise fund revenues make up the second largest revenue group, totaling $83.5 million.
Enterprise funds operate similar to a business in that they charge fees to cover the cost of their
services. The city has four primary enterprises, including a water utility, a wastewater utility, solid
waste management, and the city’s municipal golf course, The Crossings at Carlsbad.
Internal Service Funds
Internal Service fund revenues, projected to be $23.9 million, are derived from charges to the city
departments that benefit from the services rendered. The funds collected must be used
specifically to support the internal service. Examples of the city’s Internal Service funds include
General Liability, Self-Insured Benefits, Information Technology, Workers’ Compensation, and
Vehicle Maintenance and Replacement.
Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Funds
The Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund (RORF) revenues are expected to total $3.7
million in the upcoming year. On June 29, 2011, California Governor Jerry Brown signed ABX126
to dissolve all redevelopment agencies within the State of California. All agencies were
subsequently dissolved as of February 1, 2012, and a Successor Agency was designated to
complete the work of the Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency (RDA) and wind down the financial
obligations. A Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) was prepared by the
Successor Agency in April 2012 and was subsequently approved by the Oversight Board, the
County of San Diego, and the State of California. The initial ROPS identified financial
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-24
commitments of the former RDA which was to be paid from semi-annual tax increment revenue
received by the Successor Agency. Every year a new ROPS is prepared by the Successor
Agency and approved by the state in order to receive additional tax increment. Tax increment
revenues will be received by the Successor Agency until the former Carlsbad Redevelopment
Agency’s outstanding bond issue and loan balance from the city’s General Fund is paid in full.
Operating Budget By Program
The total Operating Budget adopted for the city for FY 2018-19 equals $276.1 million, which is
approximately 7 percent higher than the Operating Budget adopted for FY 2017-18. The
Operating Budget includes funding for the General Fund as well as all other city funds, and can
be categorized by main functional areas. Five main service areas that represent the key functions
of the city have been identified, as well as a Non-Departmental component, which includes fund
transfers and items that benefit the city as a whole. The graph below shows the percentage of
the Operating Budget applicable to each of the functional areas.
Total funding allocated for the Policy and Leadership Group for 2018-19 is $8.3 million. This
group encompasses all elected officials and the chief executive offices for the city. These include
the offices of the City Council, City Manager, City Clerk and Records Management, City Attorney,
City Treasurer, and the Communications department.
Administrative Services, with a budget of $29.8 million, includes Finance, Purchasing, Human
Resources, Information Technology, Self-insured Benefits, Risk Management, and Workers’
Compensation. These areas mainly provide services to city departments.
Public Safety services are funded at $60.6 million and include all of the Police and Fire programs,
such as police patrol, vice/narcotics, investigations, property and evidence, regional task forces,
fire emergency operations, fire prevention and emergency preparedness.
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-25
Community Services, with a budget of $62.4 million, consists of community and economic
development, library and cultural arts, parks and recreation, and seniors programs. Included in
this area is the enterprise fund for operations of the municipal golf course, The Crossings at
Carlsbad. Community and Economic Development guides and oversees 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 Building and Code enforcement, Volunteer
Programs, and Housing and Neighborhood Services.
The functional area requiring the largest amount of funds is Public Works, with a budget of $98.7
million. Public Works is responsible for the provision of utility services, as well as the construction
and maintenance of all of the city’s streets and roadways. It is comprised of the Water, Sewer,
and Solid Waste enterprise funds, as well as the Transportation Department, Fleet Maintenance
and Replacement, Environmental Programs, Facilities Maintenance and the Street Lighting
Special Assessment District.
The Non-Departmental and Contingency funding is $16.3 million and includes transfers to other
funds, programs benefiting the city as a whole, such as community promotions, community
contributions, assessment services, and the City Council’s contingency account. Included in the
non-departmental group is a $10 million transfer to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund. This
program sets aside funds for the replacement of the city’s infrastructure. The City Council
contingency account, which is available for emergencies and unforeseen program needs that
arise during the year, is budgeted at $1.5 million.
Staffing
The FY 2018-19 Operating Budget reflects a total net increase of 8.0 full-time positions, the
elimination of 3.0 limited-term positions, and an increase of part-time staff totaling 3.28 hourly full-
time equivalent (FTE) positions. These changes result in a city workforce of 693.25 full and three-
quarter time employees, 4.75 limited-term positions, and 182.37 hourly FTE. 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 2018-19 totals $66.2 million in new appropriations and an estimated
$198.6 million in continuing appropriations, for a total appropriation of $264.8 million. Some of
the notable capital projects which are planned in the next five years are discussed on the following
pages.
Park Development Projects
The city is currently constructing park projects which were a result of a needs assessment and
subsequent updated master plans. The city worked with the community to identify current needs
and priorities for parks and recreation programs, and summarized the input in the Parks &
Recreation Department Master Plan. The city then updated individual master plans for Poinsettia
Community Park, Aviara Community Park, Pine Avenue Community Park and Leo Carrillo Ranch
Historic Park.

estimated cost is $5.1 million.
Stagecoach Park Synthetic Turf Replacement – The Stagecoach Park athletic field is scheduled
for synthetic turf replacement at a cost of $1.8 million.
Other Facilities Maintenance Projects – As the city facilities begin to age, maintenance and repair
projects are needed to keep them in good condition. In the next five years, an additional $6.5
million has been allocated to projects, including the following:
• Cannon Park Restroom
• City Facility Accessibility Upgrades
• Faraday Administrative Facility Upgrades
• Fire Station No. 4 Expansion
• Fleet Maintenance Facility Refurbishment
• Safety Center Facility Improvements
Street and Circulation Projects
People of all ages and abilities want to go places safely and conveniently in Carlsbad, whether
they drive, walk, bike, or ride a bus or train. The livable streets concept, also called "complete
streets," acknowledges that streets are an important part of the livability of today's communities
and ought to be for everyone. Carlsbad has made livable streets a priority when planning and
constructing improvements to city roadways. This includes modernizing roads and traffic systems
and investing in programs to make it easier to get around town, whether by car, on a bike, by foot,
or via public transit. In addition to constructing improvements, the city continues to invest in the
maintenance and operation of the transportation infrastructure by providing timely repairs and
rehabilitation of the public assets associated with the roadways and public rights of way
throughout the city.
Adaptive Traffic Signal Program – This citywide program will implement adaptive signal
coordination systems at approximately 150 traffic signal and intersection locations, to improve the
flow of traffic throughout the city. An additional $950,000 in funding will be added in FY 2018-19
to the existing program budget of $1.9 million. This phase of the Adaptive Traffic Signal Program
will complete the upgrade of the traffic signal equipment throughout the City of Carlsbad including
the purchase and installation of equipment that will use real-time data to “adapt” traffic signal
operations to changing traffic patterns. The new equipment will also monitor signal operations
and send alarms alerting staff of potential equipment malfunctions.
Avenida Encinas Widening – Widening to full secondary arterial standards along Avenida Encinas
from Palomar Airport Road to just south of Embarcadero Lane is scheduled for design in FY 2019-
20. The CIP includes $5.3 million to fund the project in the next few years provided for in a
balanced and equitable manner. An additional $5.8 million is planned towards completion of
these traffic calming projects.
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-28
Beach Access Repair/Upgrades – Tamarack Avenue to Pine Avenue – Funding of $5.8 million is
included to pay for a structural evaluation report for railings, girders, caissons, concrete, etc.,
along with recommendations for repair and rehabilitation to keep the beach access facilities in

good riding surface and to extend the life of the streets. Part of the maintenance program is the
sealing and overlay of the existing street surface. In addition, any problem areas are addressed
as they are identified. Funding of $18.5 million is budgeted over the next five years for this
program.
Poinsettia Lane Extension from Cassia Road to Skimmer Court – Completion of this segment of
Poinsettia Lane is the final link between Aviara Parkway and El Camino Real. The total cost is
estimated at $14.1 million (previously appropriated).
Railroad Double Tracking – It is a City Council Goal to break ground on lowering the railroad
tracks in a trench through the Village to improve safety, community connectivity, quality of life and
economic value. To begin this effort, funding in the amount of $2.0 million has been included in
the FY 2018-19 CIP.
Road Diet and Traffic Calming Projects along Valley Street and Kelly Drive – Projects are planned
in the next five years to provide complete street solutions so that the varied user of these roads,
including pedestrians and bicyclists, are provided for in a balanced and equitable manner. The
total cost is estimated at $3.2 million.

Once’ smart phone application, and decrease congestion in the Village caused by cars searching
for parking. The initial cost estimate is $300,000.
Water and Wastewater Projects
The city’s water and wastewater projects are vital to the continued health and welfare of its
citizens. Most new lines are built and paid with impact fees collected with new development. 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. In the next five years, an additional $68.8
million in funding is scheduled for both new and replacement water and sewer projects.
Wastewater
Wastewater facilities scheduled for construction or replacement within the next five years include:
• Buena Interceptor Sewer Improvements
• Faraday/El Camino Real Sewer Replacement
• Las Palmas Trunk Sewer
• Villas Sewer Lift Station Replacement
• Vista-Carlsbad Interceptor
In total, the new construction, replacement projects, ongoing condition assessments, repairs and
upgrades to the city’s wastewater facilities are expected to cost $39.3 million in the next five years.
Water Lines
Major water facilities scheduled for construction or replacement within the next five years are
estimated at $9.5 million, and include the following locations:
• Aviara Parkway and Plum Tree
• El Fuerte and Corintia Street Pressure Reducing Station
• Fire Flow System Improvements
• Hydroelectric Generator at Desal Flow Control Facility No. 5
• Maerkle Reservoir Floating Cover Replacement
• Palomar Airport Waterline Realignment
• San Dieguito Water Intertie and Pipeline Extension
• Santa Fe II Inlet Pipeline
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-30
In addition, $18.7 million is included in the next five years for miscellaneous pipeline
replacements, repair and maintenance projects, a condition assessment program, and a water
valve repair and replacement program.
Recycled Water Expansion
Expansion to the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility, including construction of additional pipelines
and a reservoir, are anticipated to cost $34.5 million (previously appropriated). These facilities
are expected to meet the 76 percent increase in future recycled water demand. The expansion
is expected to increase the recycled water supply from 4 to up to 8 million gallons per day (mgd).
With diminishing potable water resources available, alternative supplies such as recycled and
desalinated water become increasingly important in supplementing the total water supply.
Drainage Projects
The city’s drainage infrastructure plays an important role in handling storm water runoff flows, as
well as maintaining the water quality of the city’s creeks, lagoons and ocean. Carlsbad supports
programs that will ensure that all water bodies within the city are safe and clean and, where
possible, open to the public at all times. The system consists of drainage pipes 30-inches or
larger in diameter, large concrete and rock lined channels, permanent sedimentation basins and
miscellaneous large facilities. As the city continues to age, it will become necessary to repair and
replace the lines that already exist. An additional $7.3 million will be added to the program in the
next five years.
SUMMARY
The FY 2018-19 budget focuses resources on projects that align with the strategic goals set by
our City Council and the community. Most major revenue sources for the city are expected to
continue to improve in the coming fiscal year, and these ongoing resources will fund construction
and operating costs of facilities to support the future needs of residents and visitors. The city has
also utilized a growth management plan to ensure that one-time funds are available for these
facilities and infrastructure.
The city continues to plan for the long-term and uses a ten-year financial forecast in creating the
budget. This long-term planning tool allows us to model the effects of ongoing fiscal impacts from
new facilities, economic conditions, and changes in personnel costs. Although the forecast
indicates improving economic conditions for the city in the coming years, the FY 2018-19 budget
maintains the fiscal discipline and planning exercised by Carlsbad’s City Council over the past
decades.
In FY 2015-16, the city set aside $10 million from the General Fund unassigned fund balance to
mitigate revenue losses should another recession occur. Unlike the General Fund reserve, these
funds can be used for ongoing operating expenditures to ensure the continuation of services with
minimal impact to the public. The FY 2018-19 budget reflects continued dedication to the
provision of excellent city services and the quality of life valued by those who live, work and play
in Carlsbad.
BUDGET SUMMARY
A-31
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.
Although the Government Code of the State of California has established maximum general
obligation debt limits for local governments within the State, the city does not have any
outstanding debt subject to those limitations.
Since Fiscal Year 2008-09, no debt service payments have been required of the General Fund,
and no new debt is anticipated for the General Fund in the coming year. The city currently has
approximately $66.5 million of debt outstanding. Outstanding debt obligations of financing
districts within the city do not obligate the City of Carlsbad.
The following table identifies the debt the city has issued, the outstanding principal balance, the
2018-19 scheduled principal and interest payments, and the scheduled year of payoff.

BY FUND TYPE
(in Millions)
Revenue estimates for the Operating Budget indicate that the city will receive a total of $287.8
million in FY 2018-19, a change of about $9.6 million over the projected FY 2017-18 revenues.
General Fund revenues are expected to increase by $6.9 million, compared to the prior year, as
all sources of revenue indicated in the table (above) increase, with the exception of decreases in
Special Revenue fund revenues. Special Revenue funds decreased by over 10 percent, or $1.4
million, due to projected decreases in affordable housing revenues, and police grants. Enterprise
Fund revenues are projected to remain relatively flat in the upcoming fiscal year. More information
on the city’s revenue sources is provided in the following discussion.
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 and Cultural
Arts, Street and Park Maintenance, and Recreation programs. The following table provides a
summarized outlook for the major General Fund revenues.

2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-2
General Fund revenues continue to indicate a healthy local economy, as growth continues to be
positive. Almost 80 percent of General Fund revenues are derived from three sources – property
tax, sales tax, and transient occupancy tax (TOT). Sales tax receipts and TOT revenues tend to
be much more sensitive to changes in economic conditions, unlike property tax revenues, which
remain relatively stable because of the mitigating effect of Proposition 13, which limits annual
growth in assessed values. Property tax, the largest source of General Fund revenues, is
expected to grow by 5.4 percent in FY 2018-19, as assessed values continue to improve. The
median price of single family residence (SFR), based on resale data from CoreLogic, is up by
over 20 percent year over year in March. All zip codes, or quadrants, in Carlsbad have seen
increases for the year. The appreciation in home prices is also matched with an increase in
inventories, and homes are spending slightly under a month on the market, based on Movoto
data. The Federal Reserve is expected to raise the discount rate several times in 2018, which
will put upward pressure on mortgage rates. It would be expected that this, coupled with the
recent changes in the federal income tax code which reduces itemized deductions for property
taxes, would hamper price increases in housing.
Changes in property taxes revenues lag behind changes in the housing market, as the tax
revenue for the upcoming fiscal year is based on assessed values from January. Thus, the taxes
to be received for FY 2018-19 are based on assessed values as of January 1, 2018.
Proposition 13, adopted in 1978, limits the annual increase in assessed values for property.
Under this proposition, assessed values (and the related property tax) can grow by no more than
two percent per year. The value upon which the tax is based is only increased to the full market
value upon the sale of a property. Thus, property taxes tend to grow slowly unless there is a
significant amount of housing activity. In past decades, the city has seen robust growth in property
tax revenue due to new development, high turnover of existing homes, and double-digit growth in
housing prices.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-3
Sales tax revenues generally
move in step with economic
conditions and have improved
markedly over the past years.
Sales tax revenue for FY 2018-19
is expected to increase by 3.4
percent. The most recent UCLA
Anderson forecast predicts that
taxable sales in California will stay
strong in the coming years, rising
from 3.3 percent in 2018 to 4.7
percent in 2020. Looking
backward, data from MuniServices
for the third quarter of 2017
revealed statewide growth in sales
tax of 4.3 percent compared to the
previous year. Carlsbad saw an
increase of 3.4 percent, driven in
part by healthy new auto sales (an increase of 6.8 percent) and business to business sales.
As indicated in the chart above, the city’s sales tax base is heavily weighted in the transportation
(comprised heavily of new auto sales) and general retail sectors, both of which account for two-
thirds of taxable sales in Carlsbad. New auto sales are highly elastic in comparison to economic
trends, and tax revenues from new auto sales fell precipitously during the recession, from $6.7
million in 2007 to $4.4 million in 2009. Since that dip, revenues hit a high of $8.1 million in 2016
and, for the year ending in the third quarter of 2017, revenues from auto sales were close to $8.7
million. General retail sales, although down slightly in the third quarter, remain strong. Revenues
received under Proposition 72, a ½ cent increase in California sales tax for the funding of local
public safety services, is included in sales tax revenues.
The third highest General
Fund revenue source is
Transient Occupancy
Tax (TOT, or hotel tax).
TOT is forecast to increase
by 10.9 percent in FY
2018-19, stabilizing at a
record high just over $25
million. As seen in the
accompanying graph, TOT
has increased by over 120
percent since FY 2009-10,
as new hotels, such as the
Legoland Hotel and the
Hilton Oceanfront Resort &
Spa (recently renamed
Cape Rey Carlsbad, a Hilton Resort) have opened in the past years. According to a report from
Tourism Economics, San Diego tourism will see modest growth in visitation of under 2 percent for
the next few years, as a decline in visits from Mexico puts some drag on this metric. However,
expenditures and average daily room rates will remain strong in the coming years, according to
the report. Carlsbad currently has approximately 4,800 hotel rooms and over 900 vacation
rentals, and continues to benefit from increasing daily room rates and improving occupancy rates.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-4
Franchise Tax revenue has
stabilized over the past years and
is projected at $5.3 million in FY
2018-19. 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, fiber optic antenna systems
and gas and electric services. The
solid waste franchise experienced
minor revenue increases that
mirror growth in population and
changes in rate structures. Cable TV franchise revenue is expected to decrease by 5% from $1.6
million to $1.5 million over the next fiscal year due to decreases in the number of paid subscription
services. This trend will most likely continue in future years as more subscribers cut cable services
and move to online streaming services.
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, which would not
otherwise be included in the calculations for franchise taxes, due to deregulation of the power
industry. The majority of the “in-lieu” taxes received is attributable to Cabrillo Power, the operator
of the Encina power plant, and is based on the gas used in the generation of electricity. This
revenue source is expected to remain flat for the entirety of the ten-year forecast.
Development-related revenues are derived from fees for 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 actual development.
During FY 2009-10, development-related revenues began to turn around from historic lows
experienced in FY 2008-09. Since then, development-related revenues have fluctuated in line
with increases and decreases in residential, commercial and industrial development. In FY 2018-
19, the city expects a 35 percent decrease in development related revenues, to approximately
$3.2 million, following higher than anticipated development activity occurring in FY 2017-18. An
additional 409 residential units are expected to be added in the coming fiscal year, about the
same number expected for the current year. Coupled with an estimated addition of over 515,000
square feet of non-residential space, compared to $1.4 million in the current year, this is driving
the expectations for development-related revenues in the coming year.
Business license taxes are closely tied to the health of the local economy, and are projected to
increase by 2.5 percent to an estimated $5.2 million in FY 2018-19. There are currently about
10,000 licensed businesses in Carlsbad, with 2,500 of them home-based.
All other revenues include transfer taxes, interest earnings, ambulance fees, recreation fees,
and other charges and fees. The estimate for FY 2018-19 totals $19.6 million, a $1.3 million
increase from the previous year, primarily due to an accounting change for utility billing
interdepartmental charges. Interdepartmental charges are generated through engineering
services charged to capital projects, reimbursed work from other funds and miscellaneous
interdepartmental expenses charged to funds outside the General Fund for services performed
by departments within the General Fund.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-5
Transfer taxes are those taxes paid to the county upon the transfer of interests in real estate. The
tax is $1.10 per $1,000 of property value, split equally between the county and the city. Carlsbad
expects to receive approximately $1.2 million in transfer taxes for FY 2018-19, which is a 2 percent
increase from FY 2017-18. Housing prices are continuing to increase in Carlsbad and inventories
have increased for the first time in several years. Economists continue to predict multiple
increases in the Fed discount rate and, coupled with a change in the income tax code, this could
slow home price appreciation.
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 $2.4 million in interest on its
General Fund investments for Fiscal Year 2018-19, as the yield on the city’s portfolio is expected
to improve modestly to about 1.6 percent and cash balances grow.
Overall, as reflected in the above bar chart, General Fund revenues are expected to be up 4.4
percent from FY 2018-19, as the city experiences growth in all revenues, except development-
related fees and franchise taxes, which are projected to decrease. Although the city experienced
revenue growth between 9 and 17 percent in the late 1990’s, it was not sustainable. Much of
those increases were due to the opening of new hotels, restaurants, retail centers, and new home
development. As new development slows, it will be increasingly more difficult to produce double-
digit growth in revenues. An improving economy is certainly driving General Fund revenues
higher, but revenue growth should stabilize at around 3 percent in the coming years.
The City has a General Fund reserve policy that sets a minimum reserve of 30 percent of the
General Fund Operating Expenditures. In addition, the policy sets a target reserve of 40 percent
to 50 percent 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 2017-18, the unassigned General Fund balance is projected to be approximately
$78 million. At the end of FY 2018-19, the reserve is projected to be approximately $88 million.
This projected unassigned fund balance will represent a 56 percent reserve. The reserve amount
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW

is consistent with Council Policy 74: General Fund Reserve Guidelines. More information about
the city’s financial policies are located in the “Budget Highlights – Section A” of this document.
Other Funds
Revenues from Special Revenue funds are expected to total $12.3 million in FY 2018-19, a
decrease of 10.2 percent from FY 2017-18. The types of programs supported within Special
Revenue funds are those funded by specific revenue streams such as:
• Federal Grants (Rental Assistance-Section 8 and Community Development Block Grants)
• Special fees and assessments (Affordable Housing and Maintenance Assessment Districts)
• Donations (Library, Cultural Arts, Recreation and Senior Donations)
The most noteworthy changes in the Special Revenue funds occurred in the Affordable Housing
Fee Fund, a decrease of $948,000. These fees are related to development and can fluctuate
significantly from year-to-year. Revenue from grants and donations decreased $606,000; these
are generally one-time revenues and fluctuate from year-to-year as well.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-7
Enterprise fund revenues for FY 2018-19 are projected at $83.5 million, a modest increase of
1.3 percent over the current year estimates.
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, solid waste management, and operation of a golf course. In addition to
paying for the wholesale and fixed water costs, the FY 2018-19 Operating Budget includes
funding for replacement of Carlsbad’s water infrastructure, ongoing meter replacements, and
maintaining sufficient operating reserves.
The Water Enterprise Fund revenue is estimated at $47.2 million, which is a very slight increase
over the current year estimate of $47.0 million. Recycled water revenues at $10.1 million are
expected to increase 2.2 percent as Carlsbad continues to expand the delivery system and add
new customers.
Estimated revenues for Wastewater are $14.4 million, a 2.6 percent increase over the current
year estimate.
Estimated revenues from operations of the Golf Course are expected to increase by 3.9 percent
next year.
Internal Service funds show estimated revenues of $23.9 million for FY 2018-19, a 14.2 percent
increase over FY 2017-18 projections.
Internal Service funds account for services provided within the city itself, from one department to
another, on a cost reimbursement basis. These include programs such as the self-insurance
funds for Workers’ Compensation and General Liability (Risk Management), as well as Vehicle
Maintenance and Replacement, and Information Technology. Departments pay for these
services; therefore, the rates charged are based on the cost to provide the service. The goal of
an Internal Service fund is to match budgeted expenses with charges to the departments.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-8
An actuarial review of the Workers’ Compensation fund indicates that it has insufficient cash
balances to meet estimated future claims, due primarily to increasing claims over the past years.
In order to remedy this, the proposed budget increases charges to city departments by 10 percent
in the coming years, in addition to transferring funds of $1.5 million from the General Fund to
stabilize the Workers’ Compensation fund.
There are also increases in Vehicle Replacement and Information Technology (IT) charges of
11 percent and 28 percent, respectively. Vehicle Replacement costs increase when the number
of vehicles and the price of new vehicles increases; for example, police sedans are now routinely
being replaced with sport utility vehicles, at a higher per unit cost. There have also been
significant increases in specialized vehicles, such as fire trucks and ambulances. IT charges to
departments have increased significantly mainly as a result of combining the Police IT staff (5
FTE) and operating costs with the citywide IT department budget.
The Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund (RORF) revenues are budgeted at $3.7
million, a 3.1 percent increase over FY 2017-18 estimates. Although the Carlsbad
Redevelopment Agency has been dissolved, the California Department of Finance has approved
the repayment of the approximately $8.1 million (plus accrued interest) loaned to both former
redevelopment areas by the General Fund as well as debt service payments remaining on the
former agency’s 1993 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds. Payments are distributed annually from
available property tax revenues allocated by the state to the successor agency.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-9
EXPENDITURES
The city’s Operating Budget for FY 2018-19 totals $276.1 million, which represents an increase
of about $18.5 million, or 7.2 percent, as compared to the adopted FY 2017-18 Budget. The
changes in each of the city’s programs will be discussed below.
Budgetary Policies
The 2018-19 budget reflects the city’s ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards
of quality for our community today and in the future. The budget includes investment in our
infrastructure and in our people. We continue to pursue strategies that will ensure continued
fiscal health, from addressing long term pension liabilities to ensuring adequate financial
reserves are set aside to weather future challenges. The budget balances one-time and ongoing
expenses to ensure that taxpayer resources are allocated in a way that ensures that Carlsbad
remains the pinnacle of stewardship and thoughtful planning.
Responsible management of the city’s resources includes maintaining a focus on a sustainable
future by ensuring the city remains in good financial health, as today’s decisions will impact future
spending levels. Although the city is entering the new fiscal year in a solid financial position, the
city will pursue allocating resources in a manner that provides the best services for the people of
Carlsbad. The following policies for FY 2018-19 were established in line with conservative
estimates for future revenue growth:
• Continue to provide excellent services to our residents.
• Staff was added in functional areas that allow us to pursue city goals, such as the addition
of a manager to oversee the city’s Smart City initiatives.
• Modest growth of 2.5 percent was allowed for Maintenance & Operations costs so our
departments can address rising costs without impact to service levels.
• Costs were included for new and innovative services, such as the Integrated Pest
Management Program, which pursues maintenance of our facilities and parks in a more
environmentally conscious manner.
• Additional budget was included for professional development of our employees, as we
strive to ensure a workforce capable of maintaining the high standards we have set.
The city uses an Expenditure Control Budget (ECB) process in budgeting, where each
department is given a block appropriation containing sufficient funds to provide the current level
of services for the upcoming year. For FY 2018-19, departments were allowed a 2.5 percent
increase, if needed, for maintenance & operations (M&O) costs. As a result of the economic
recession, block budgets were reduced in both FY 2008-09 and FY 2009-10 in order to align
expenses with falling revenues. In order to gain further operating efficiencies, the city’s
organizational structure was realigned in FY 2010-11.
During the beginning of the recession, the city eliminated 50 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions
in order to contain costs. Since FY 2014-15 there has been an increase of 17.5 full-time
positions. In the FY 2018-19 budget, there is a net increase of 8.0 permanent full-time positions
and a reduction of 3.0 limited-term position, as well as an increase of 3.28 part-time FTE
positions. No additional appropriations are expected during the fiscal year, except in the case
of unanticipated events.
As in past years, amounts that are unspent at the end of the fiscal year will be carried forward to
the next year, or will increase the city’s reserves. At the end of FY 2017-18, the amounts carried
forward by each department will be capped at no more than 10 percent of the previous year’s
Adopted Budget. Departments are allowed to request additional carry forward amounts from
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-10
remaining unspent funds for special one-time projects as well as items funded in FY 2017-18
which are planned for completion in FY 2018-19.
Budgeted Expenditures
Through the application of these guidelines and policies, the FY 2018-19 Operating Budget of
$276.1 million was developed.
Position Changes
The FY 2018-19 Operating Budget reflects an approximate citywide full-time personnel increase
of $1,545,000, resulting from a net increase of 8.0 permanent full-time positions and a reduction
of 3.0 limited-term positions.
The net increase of 8.0 is summarized below:
Addition of the following 10.0 permanent full-time positions:
1.0 City Traffic Engineer
1.0 Facility Specialist
1.0 Parks Superintendent
4.0 Police Officers (Sworn)
2.0 Police Ranger CSO's (conversion from limited-term)
1.0 Smart City Innovator
Elimination of the following 2.0 permanent full-time positions:
1.0 Maintenance Aide
1.0 Park Maintenance Worker II
The net decrease of 3.0 limited-term positions is for the following positions:
2.0 Police Ranger CSO's (converted to permanent)
1.0 Senior Program Manager
The net increase in hourly staff totals 3.28 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions, as shown below:
Addition of 3.50 full-time equivalent positions:
1.00 FTE Finance
2.50 FTE Public Works
Elimination of 0.22 full-time equivalent positions:
0.22 FTE Parks and Recreation
These changes result in a city workforce of 693.25 permanent full and three-quarter time
employees, 4.75 limited-term employees, and 182.37 hourly, full-time equivalent positions.
New Facilities
The city has a 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 departmental operating budgets. In FY
2017-18 operating increases in the amount of $240,000 were provided for partial year funding
for: Leo Carrillo Historic Ranch Phase III (stables and restroom), Pine Avenue Community Park
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-11
Phase III (community center and gardens), Poinsettia Community Park Phase III (multi-sport
arena, dog park, tot lot, and pickle ball courts), and Aviara Community Park Phase II (outdoor
gathering area). Annual operating costs for these new facilities are estimated at $640,000, so
the additional annual funding of $400,000 has been added to the FY 2018-19 Operating Budget.

(In Millions)
The General Fund contains most of the discretionary revenues that support basic core city
services. However, this should not diminish the importance of the other operating funds, as they
also contribute to the array of services available within Carlsbad. The remainder of this section
will provide more information about the budgeted expenditures by fund and program.
General Fund
The total Operating Budget for the General Fund for FY 2018-19 is $155.8 million, which is $10.1
million, or 6.9 percent greater than the previous year’s Adopted Budget of $145.7 million. The
total increase is attributable to a $2.5 million, or 2.7 percent increase in Personnel, and a $6.8
million, or 15.8 percent increase in Maintenance & Operations costs, as can be seen in the table
above. Transfers to other funds increased $700,000, or 6.0 percent. These changes are
discussed in more detail on the following pages.

changes in these costs can have a significant effect on the total budget. The total personnel
budget for FY 2018-19 is $92.9 million, which is $2.5 million, or 2.7 percent greater than the
previous year’s total personnel budget of $90.4 million.
The table above shows the breakdown of personnel costs for the General Fund. Salaries include
full and part-time staff costs and are expected to increase in FY 2018-19 by $1.8 million, or 2.9
percent. The increase is mainly due to anticipated wage increases scheduled to occur in FY
2018-19, as well as the net addition of 8.0 full-time staff, a transfer of 5.0 full-time staff to the
Information Technology Internal Service Fund, a decrease of 3.0 limited-term positions, and an
increase of 3.28 part-time staff.
CalPERS administers the city’s defined benefit pension plan, and costs have been increasing in
past years as CalPERS addresses a structural shortfall in plan assets to cover liabilities.
CalPERS deliberately raised participating agencies’ contributions over a number of years to
improve the plan’s long-term funded status. The pension system continues to pursue strategies
that will make the plan sustainable in the long-term, such as investing in less risky assets, even
though this strategy will increase pension costs. There is some downward pressure on costs,
as new employees receive lower pension benefits, but the net change in pension costs is upward.
Miscellaneous (General) and Safety employee pension contributions will increase by 2.3 percent
for FY 2018-19, but are projected to increase by 10 percent in both plans in the following fiscal
year as CalPERS implements the risk mitigation strategy and lowers the assumed rate of return.
Health insurance costs are relatively flat when compared to FY 2017-18, and Workers’
Compensation expense is projected to increase 10.1 percent due to increasing liability estimates
and settlement payments. While health insurance costs have actually increased, the current
year (FY 2017-18) estimated increase was high, relative to the actual increase, and therefore no
increase is reflected for the upcoming fiscal year. Miscellaneous other personnel costs,
Medicare, unemployment and disability, are projected to increase by $72,000, or 5.7 percent in
FY 2018-19.
Departments with part-time hourly employees were given a 3.1 percent increase, in addition to
adjustments for minimum wage increases and where part-time ranges were moved based on a
salary survey of comparative agencies.
Maintenance and Operations costs (or M&O) represent about 32 percent of the total General
Fund budget, and include the budgets for all program expenses other than personnel, capital
outlay and transfers. Overall, total M&O costs are projected at $49.5 million, an increase of
about $6.8 million, or 15.9 percent, for FY 2018-19 as compared to FY 2017-18. Maintenance
& Operations costs are discussed more fully by program later in the report.

Capital Outlay includes budgeted equipment purchases over $1,000. Capital outlay purchases
of $227,000 are budgeted in the General Fund for FY 2018-19. The complete list listed of
proposed capital purchases is shown on page K-1.
Transfers are amounts anticipated to be transferred from the General Fund to another city fund.
The transfers included in the adopted budget are as follows:
• $10,681,000 to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund for major maintenance and
replacement of city infrastructure. This represents 6.5 percent of the General Fund
Revenues, the same as the percentage transfer for FY 2017-18.
• $247,000 to the Storm Water Program for reimbursement for the General Fund portion
of Storm Water expenses.
• $775,000 to the Median Maintenance and Street Tree Maintenance Special Revenue
Funds to cover cash shortfalls, as annual assessments collected from property owners
do not cover annual operating expenditures. Annual assessments can only be increased
with a majority vote of the property owners.
• $1,500,000 to the city’s Workers’ Compensation Fund to cover increased claims
settlements and estimated liability.
Advances (and repayments of prior advances) are amounts anticipated to be transferred from
the General Fund to other city funds and are expected to be repaid to the General Fund in future
years. No General Fund advances are included in this year’s Operating Budget. It is anticipated
that the Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund will repay $937,014 against the outstanding
loan between the city and the former Redevelopment Agency.
Another way of looking at the General Fund budget is by program. The chart below compares
the total FY 2018-19 budget to the amounts adopted in the previous year. A brief description of
each department and its services and a summary of significant department budget changes in
the FY 2018-19 Operating Budget, are noted on the pages following the chart.

2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-14
• The Policy and Leadership Group consists of all elected officials, the City Manager’s
Office, City Clerk and City Treasurer, the City Attorney’s Office and Community Outreach
and Engagement. The increase of the FY 2018-19 adopted budget includes funding for
a Smart City Innovator position and a Grant Writer (contracted), as well as funding for
election costs, which are generally budgeted every other year.
• The Administrative Services’ Finance division provides the services of accounting,
financial reporting, capital and operating budgeting, payroll, billing and collections,
citywide mail processing, purchasing and receiving, fiscal oversight, and long-term
financial planning for the city. This budget has increased 33.8 percent, or $1.5 million
when compared to the FY 2017-18 budget. This increase is primarily due to an
accounting change in capturing the utility billing costs incurred by the Finance
department. In previous years, this cost was deducted from the Finance division
expenditures and charged out directly to the utility enterprises. This past year the
citywide Cost Allocation Plan was updated, and it was recommended that the utility billing
charges become part of the costs allocated out to other departments via the
interdepartmental charges, one of the primary outcomes of the Cost Allocation Plan. The
charges represent a truing up of the cost of services provided by one fund to another. In
this example, the Utility funds (Water, Sewer, and Solid Waste) will incur
interdepartmental expenses, and the General Fund will receive the revenue, which
represents a reimbursement of the expenses incurred for services provided to the
Utilities.
• The Administrative Services’ Human Resources division supports the city with staffing
and recruitment, employee development, performance management, and compensation
and labor relations services. The 23.4 percent increase ($800,000) provides increased
funding for tuition reimbursement and citywide training and development. These costs
support efforts towards employee retention and engagement, in alignment with the city’s
“people first” philosophy.
• The Community and Economic Development Department includes Housing and
Neighborhood Services, Economic Development, Planning, Building Inspection, and
Land Development Engineering. The increase over FY 2017-18 is about $122,000, or
1.1 percent. This increase reflects a reduction of 3 limited-term positions, offset by
negotiated wage and benefit increases.
• The Library and Cultural Arts Department provides staffing and a wide variety of
programming for three library locations, and a cultural arts office. The department’s
budget is projected to increase by $382,000, or 3.0 percent, from FY 2017-18.
• The Parks and Recreation
Department plans, staffs and
maintains the city’s parks and
recreational facilities, provides an
assortment of recreational
programs for all ages, maintains
landscaping at facilities throughout
the city, and manages the city’s
open space areas. The FY 2018-
19 budget is $2.2 million, or 13.4
percent, greater than the FY 2017-
18 budget. This increase will pay
for negotiated wage increases and

Superintendent, with the elimination of 2 maintenance positions. In addition, several new
park facilities will be open to the public in the upcoming fiscal year, and $400,000 in
funding was added for operating costs. The largest increase ($622,000) is for
implementation of an Integrated Pest Management Plan, using health conscious and
environmentally sensitive pest management strategies.
• The Carlsbad Fire Department provides emergency operations, emergency
preparedness, and fire prevention services to safeguard lives, property and the
environment in the City of Carlsbad. The FY 2018-19 Operating Budget reflects a $1.5
million, or 7.0 percent increase. In addition to anticipated personnel cost increases,
funding is included for fire engine equipment and for a one-time payment to North County
Dispatch for paying down Carlsbad’s share of the CalPERS unfunded actuarial liability of
the dispatch agency.
• The Carlsbad Police Department provides high quality public safety services to the
community by enforcing laws and ordinances, preserving the peace, and providing for
the protection of life and property. Overall, the department’s costs are increasing by $1.5
million, or 4.3 percent, for FY 2018-19. Four Police Officer positions were added to the
budget, as well as two police vehicles and funding for other operational costs associated
with the added positions (such as uniforms, supplies, and training). In addition to the
increase in positions, the budget reflects a consolidation of five Police Information
Technology positions with the citywide Information Technology department, resulting in
a reduction in costs.
• Public Works Administration division reflects a decrease of $300,000, or 14 percent,
primarily due to organizational changes resulting in positions being reallocated to other
Public Works divisions. In addition to these changes, one-time funding of $40,000 was
added for a pilot apprenticeship program.
• The Public Works Environmental Management division manages the city’s
environmental programs, which include storm water, habitat and other environmental
maintenance and monitoring programs as well as the implementation of the Climate
Action Plan. The FY 2018-19 budget reflects an increase of $200,000, or 38.1 percent,
which includes $135,000 for implementation of the Integrated Pest Management Plan,
and a $45,000 transfer from the Administration division to pay for watershed program
municipal inspections.
• The Public Works General Services division oversees the city’s fleet and manages the
maintenance of all city-owned facilities, street and storm drain maintenance, and the
Safety Training Center. The FY 2018-19 budget has increased 5 percent ($400,000)
over FY 2017-18. A Facility Specialist position was added to assist with increased
workload at the Safety Training Center; funding for the custodial maintenance of new
park facilities was included; and one part-time position was added to adequately resource
custodial services at city facilities.
• The Public Works Transportation division manages traffic signal operations and
planning, roadway capital projects, asset management (such as the pavement
management program), construction management and inspections, and storm drain
engineering. The FY 2018-19 budget reflects an increase of $1.1 million, or 16.5 percent
over FY 2017-18. One full-time Traffic Engineer position was added to this division, and
organizational changes reallocated two positions from other divisions within Public Works
to accommodate organizational changes made between the divisions. In addition, one-
time funding for outside Construction Management and Inspection services was
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-16
increased by $400,000 to augment existing staff resources with inspection of anticipated
residential and commercial development projects.
• Non-departmental expenses include the transfers previously discussed, the Council
Contingency account, and administrative and other expenses not associated with any
one department. While the overall budget remains relatively constant, some of the
specific line items changed significantly. Legal costs reflect an increase of $200,000 due
to recent trends in litigation; funding for estimated personnel increases has been removed
($800,000) from the Non-departmental budget and is now reflected in the individual
department budgets; and, the annual transfer to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund
(IRF) has increased $700,000, due to increasing revenue estimates. The annual transfer
to the IRF is budgeted at 6.5 percent of General Fund revenues.
• The Council Contingency is a budgeted amount that is available to the City Council to
address unanticipated emergencies or unforeseen program needs during the fiscal year.
For FY 2018-19, the Council Contingency is budgeted at $1.5 million, with no change
when compared to the prior year.
Note: The spike in FY 2016-17 reflects a one-time payment to pay off the golf course construction
bonds ($14.8 million), and a transfer to the General Capital Construction Fund for replacement of Fire
Station No. 2 ($10.5 million).
As reflected in the chart above, the city’s General Fund expenditures were reduced with the
budget in FY 2010-11, and expenditure increases were kept at bay through FY 2012-13. FY
2013-14 expenditures reflected a 10.8 percent increase due to labor costs and one-time expense
for the Poinsettia Fires. The following year, FY 2014-15, expenditures remained relatively flat.
The FY 2015-16 budget reflected an 8.1 percent increase in expenditures due primarily to
increased personnel costs, and the FY 2016-17 expenditures included $25.3 million in one-time
costs ($10.5 million for a transfer to the Capital Improvement Program for Fire Station No. 2
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-17
replacement, and $14.8 million to pay of the golf course construction bonds). The estimated
expenditures for FY 2017-18 reflect a substantial decrease due to the one-time costs reflected
in FY 2016-17. For FY 2018-19 expenditures are budgeted reflecting a 6.9 percent increase,
primarily in M&O costs - including implementation of the Integrated Pest Management Plan,
funding for new facilities, changes to Internal Service Fund charges, and increases in employee
training and development. New positions and negotiated salary increases are also reflected in
the overall 6.9 percent increase.
Changes in Other Funds
Special Revenue funds, at $12.9 million, show a $856,000, or 7.1 percent increase when
compared to FY 2017-18. The most significant increase is in the Affordable Housing Assistance
program, which anticipates a $427,000 increase in housing assistance payments over the current
year. In addition, the Local Cable Infrastructure Fund includes $125,000 to pay for one-time
capital costs for the council chambers voting equipment.
Enterprise funds total $79.1 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 4.5 percent, over the FY
2017-18 Adopted Budget. The most significant increases are in Water Operations, at about $1.9
million, and are attributed to increases in the cost of water purchased from the San Diego County
Water Authority. The Operating Budget also includes funding for depreciation replacement
transfers to pay for capital projects related to aging of the water infrastructure system.
Wastewater operations are projected to increase 8.6 percent, or $1.1 million; payments to Encina
for operations of the wastewater treatment facility have increased $300,000, and the annual
transfer from the Wastewater operating fund to the Wastewater Capital Replacement Fund has
increased $750,000, to pay for maintenance and replacement of the wastewater infrastructure,
such as pipelines, lift stations, and the Encina Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Golf Course operations are expected to increase $350,000, or 4.7 percent over FY 2017-18. The
primary changes over FY 2017-18 contributing to the increase include a net of increases in
personnel costs of $316,000, decreases in course and ground expenses in the amount of
$192,000, and increases in capital costs for course improvements of $212,000.
The Internal Service funds total $26.7 million, with an overall increase of $3.8 million, or 16.4
percent, over FY 2017-18. Significant changes are outlined below.
• The Workers’ Compensation budget is anticipated to decrease $420,000, or 9.6
percent, due to anticipated decreases in settlement expenses for the next fiscal year.
• The General Liability/Risk Management budget reflects an increase of approximately
$306,000, or 14.8 percent, due to increased legal costs associated with the rising number
of cases that have trials pending.
• The Self-Insured Benefits budget reflects a decrease of about $115,000 from the
previous fiscal year, as costs for premiums and settlements have decreased over that
last 2 years.
• The Vehicle Replacement budget shows an increase of $1.8 million, or 79.5 percent.
There are 46 planned vehicle replacements in the upcoming year (as compared to 30 in
the current year), at a total cost of $4.2 million. Replacement costs vary from year-to-
year depending on the number of vehicles scheduled for replacement, and the type. For
example, in the upcoming year a Fire Ladder Truck is planned for replacement at a cost
of $1.5 million. In addition, the overall cost of vehicles has risen, and there are instances
where vehicles are replaced with more costly models, for example, it is now customary
to replace police sedans with sport utility vehicles, at a higher cost.
2018-19 OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
B-18
• The Vehicle Maintenance costs are expected to decrease $440,000, or 13.7 percent.
The Vehicle Maintenance budget is established based on historical trends. Newer
vehicles, and energy efficient vehicles generally cost less to maintain.
• The Information Technology budget includes both operating and replacement
expenditures. The proposed budget reflects an increase of $2.6 million, or 26 percent.
The increase includes the transfer of the Police Information Technology division, now
under the umbrella of the citywide Information Technology department, with an increase
to this fund of $1.7 million. In addition to this increase, replacement of IT assets increased
for FY 2018-19 by $200,000.
• The budget for the Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Funds (RORF) has
increased about $300,000. The Recognized Obligation Payments Schedule (ROPS)
identifies financial commitments of the former Redevelopment Agency, including up to
$250,000 in allowable administrative costs, to be paid from semi-annual tax increment
revenue received by the Successor Agency. Every year a new ROPS must be prepared
by the Successor Agency and approved by the Agency’s Oversight Board and the State
of California in order to receive additional tax increment. Tax increment will be received
by the Successor Agency until the outstanding bond issue and loan balance that was
previously advanced by the city to the former Redevelopment Agency is paid in full.
SUMMARY
The Operating Budget for FY 2018-19 provides a balanced budget for the coming fiscal year
while continuing with a long-term plan to sustain a balanced budget in future years. Significant
ongoing operating expenses were identified and incorporated in the FY 2018-19 proposed
spending plan. The Carlsbad economy is well diversified and continues to provide stability to the
city’s revenue base, bolstered by strong assessed property values, retail sales, and tourism.
Most of the city’s major revenue sources are improving with the exception of development
revenues, due to anticipated decreases in development activity following the spike in activity that
has occurred in the last few years.
Carlsbad continues to benefit from a strong and diverse economic base, and has maintained
financial policies that continue to protect the city from the vagaries of the business cycle,
increasing costs, and unfunded mandates. The city continues to evaluate opportunities to
strengthen financial policies, identify opportunities to improve business practices and provide the
greatest service level possible with finite resources, and continues to provide an environment
that fosters excellence.
The City of Carlsbad is entering the new fiscal year in a solid financial position and focused on
the future. Careful planning and responsible management have allowed the city to not only
maintain core services, but to also move ahead on community projects and other investments
that contribute to an excellent quality of life in our community. Promoting a strong local economy
and bringing more jobs to the city is a top priority. Due to continued fiscally conservative
practices, the city is in an excellent position to take advantage of new economic opportunities
that will allow this community to thrive now and for many years in the future.

WORK PROGRAM:
This budget includes leadership and stewardship of the city’s resources, specifically protecting our creeks, lagoons and
ocean. The Environmental Management Division of Public Works coordinates the citywide Storm Water Protection
Program and helps the city maintain compliance with the Municipal Storm Water Permit issued by the San Diego
Regional Water Quality Control Board.
PROGRAM ACTIVITIES:
• Watershed Principal and Participation – The Storm Water Protection program personnel participate in watershed
activities with neighboring cities in the Carlsbad Watershed and act as the Principal Copermittee. Activities are
focused on implementing water quality protection programs to improve water quality and reporting on the
implementation progress of goals and strategies identified in the Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP) for the
Carlsbad Watershed Management Area. As the Principal Copermittee for the Watershed, the city serves as a
liaison with the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board, ensures the submittal of annual reports and
participates in the San Diego County Copermittees Regional Program Planning Committee.
• City Representation – The Storm Water Protection Program personnel represent the city at meetings with the
Environmental Protection Agency, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Diego County Copermittees,
Carlsbad Watershed, environmental non-profit groups, and other related stakeholders.
• Water Quality Monitoring – The Storm Water Protection Program staff implement a monitoring program to evaluate
Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (MS4) discharges. Required monitoring programs include Receiving Water
monitoring, MS4 outfall discharge monitoring, Sediment Quality monitoring and various Special Studies.
• Education/Outreach and Public Participation – The Storm Water Protection Program staff implement a public
outreach and educational program to promote and encourage behavior changes that reduce the discharge of
pollutants into the MS4 and protect water quality in our receiving waters. Outreach to municipal staff is conducted
to inform and educate employees and city contractors on the requirements for municipal facilities and operations.

PROGRAM GROUP DESCRIPTION:
The Carlsbad Municipal Water District, a subsidiary district of the City of Carlsbad, provides water service to
approximately 85 percent of the city. The District purchases 100 percent of its potable water, including a local supply
of desalinated seawater, as treated water from the San Diego County Water Authority. The District also supplies
customers with recycled water from the Carlsbad Water Reclamation Facility (CWRF), and through purchase
agreements with the Leucadia Wastewater District and Vallecitos Water District.
PROGRAM ACTIVITIES:
Water Operations
• Provide reliable operation and maintenance of the potable and recycled water reservoirs, pumping, regulating, and
disinfection systems; collect water quality samples to ensure compliance with state and federal regulations, and
provide emergency response services. CMWD is in full compliance daily with drinking water regulations.
Water Construction/Maintenance
• Schedule and perform water system maintenance to ensure a safe and efficient water distribution system, and
provide emergency response services and repairs.
Water Conservation
• Provide water conservation education and outreach to encourage responsible water use.
Meter Services
• Read over 29,700 customer meters monthly to ensure timely and accurate revenue collection; provide customer
service for water utility customers; and install, replace and maintain water meters.
Cross-Connection Control
• Implement and enforce cross-connection control and backflow prevention of potable and recycled water systems
to ensure a safe supply of potable water and compliance with state and federal regulations.
PERFORMANCE/WORKLOAD MEASURES:

Water Service Delivery
The System Integrity Rate is the metric for assessing the condition of a water distribution system by reviewing the
number of leaks and breaks in the system per 100 miles of pipe. These measures are calculated by dividing the total
number of leaks and breaks during the reporting period by the total miles of pipe in the system and multiplying the
results by 100. CMWD currently has approximately 446 miles of potable pipe and 80 miles of recycled pipe.
The 2017 AWWA benchmark for pipeline breaks rate ranges between 1.4 and 12.6, with 4.3 as the median. The
benchmark for leaks rate ranges between 1.5 and 11, with 5 as the median. CMWD’s potable water breaks rates are
well below the average benchmark and seem to indicate that system integrity is operating at a very high level. CMWD’s
leaks rates are above the median. CMWD has implemented a leak detection program to reduce this rate.

Overview
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-1
The City of Carlsbad Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a 15-year planning document that
outlines the expenditure plan for future capital projects and the corresponding revenues to pay for
those expenditures. The plan reflects the city’s ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest
standards of quality facilities for our community today and in the future. It is a 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 upcoming fiscal year.
Information is shown in subsequent years to provide the most comprehensive information about all
of the known future facilities the City of Carlsbad plans to construct, refurbish, replace, or modify.
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19 CIP outlines approximately $66.2 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 $49.7 million. 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 plan for its capital facilities.
In recent years, there has also been an increased demand for resources to modernize, repair, and
replace existing infrastructure. Prudent financial planning has ensured ongoing funding for these
projects as well, for many years into the future. About 50 percent of Carlsbad’s comprehensive
capital plan encompasses numerous asset management programs, which ensure adequate
inspection, maintenance, and replacement of buildings and parks, water, sewer and drainage
systems, bridges, and roadways systems.
PROJECT EVALUATION
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. Each year,
staff begins the process by evaluating the construction schedules of the 15-year plan for city
facilities in conjunction with the workload of the staff needed to complete the projects. Staff
considers the City Council Goals and Work Plan, to ensure that the CIP is in alignment with the
Goals as well as the Community Vision. In the FY 2018-19 CIP, there are approximately 240
continuing and new projects planned in the next 15 years.
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-2
Projects were analyzed using the criteria shown
in the table. Project timing was reviewed, as
well as the availability of funding and other
resources needed.
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 FY 2032-33 (the next 15 years). All construction costs are
estimates and only projects scheduled for FY 2018-19 funding will receive appropriations on July
1, 2018. The information shown in the future years reflects the most comprehensive snapshot of
the known or anticipated future projects, as well as the associated cost.
THE NEXT FIVE YEARS
PARK PROJECTS
The city is currently implementing park
projects, which were a result of a needs
assessment and subsequent updated master
plans. The city worked with the community to
identify current needs and priorities for parks
and recreation programs, and summarized
the input in the Parks & Recreation
Department Master Plan. The city then
updated individual master plans for Poinsettia
Community Park, Aviara Community Park,
Pine Avenue Community Park and Leo
Carrillo Ranch Historic Park.
Aviara Community Park Event Gathering Space and Picnic Areas – The additional park amenities
include a large passive outdoor public gathering space, group picnic areas, a perimeter walking
path and a catering support room complete with appliances to support outside catering and food

STREET AND CIRCULATION PROJECTS
People of all ages and abilities want to go places safely and conveniently in Carlsbad, whether they
drive, walk, bike, or ride a bus or train. The livable streets concept, also called "complete streets,"
acknowledges that streets are an important part of the livability of today's communities and ought
to be for everyone. Carlsbad has made livable streets a priority when planning and constructing
improvements to city roadways. This includes modernizing roads and traffic systems and investing
in programs to make it easier to get around town, whether by car, on a bike, by foot, or via public
transit. In addition to constructing improvements, the city continues to invest in the maintenance
and operation of the transportation infrastructure by providing timely repairs and rehabilitation of
the public assets associated with the roadways and public rights of way throughout the city.
Adaptive Traffic Signal Program – This citywide program will implement adaptive signal
coordination systems at approximately 150 traffic signal and intersection locations, to improve the
flow of traffic throughout the city. An additional $950,000 in funding will be added in FY 2018-19 to
the existing program budget of $1.9 million. This phase of the Adaptive Traffic Signal Program will
complete the upgrade of the traffic signal equipment throughout the City of Carlsbad including the
purchase and installation of equipment that will use real-time data to “adapt” traffic signal operations
to changing traffic patterns. The new equipment will also monitor signal operations and send
alarms alerting staff of potential equipment malfunctions.
Avenida Encinas Widening – Widening to full secondary arterial standards along Avenida Encinas
from Palomar Airport Road to just south of Embarcadero Lane is scheduled for design in FY 2019-
20. The CIP includes $5.3 million to fund the project in the next few years.
Beach Access Repair/Upgrades – Tamarack Avenue to Pine
Avenue – Funding of $5.8 million is included to pay for a
structural evaluation report for railings, girders, caissons,
concrete, etc., along with recommendations for repair and
rehabilitation to keep the beach access facilities in safe
condition.

Chestnut Avenue Complete Street Project – This project will reconfigure Chestnut Avenue to create
a complete street with high visibility crosswalks, curb extensions, bike lanes and bicycle and
pedestrian way finding signs, at a total cost of $1.1 million. Funding is scheduled in the CIP in FY
2019-20.
Concrete Repair and Maintenance – The proposed spending plan includes $1.3 million in the next
five years for repairs to sidewalks, curb and gutter, pedestrian ramps, driveway approaches and
cross gutters.
El Camino Real Widening from Arenal Road to La Costa Avenue – This project will add a
southbound lane to widen the road to full Prime Arterial standards, at an estimated cost of $2.5
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 streets. Part of the maintenance program is the
sealing and overlay of the existing street surface. In addition, any problem areas are addressed
as they are identified. Funding of $18.5 million is budgeted over the next five years for this program.
Poinsettia Lane Extension from Cassia Road to Skimmer Court – Completion of this segment of
Poinsettia Lane is the final link between Aviara Parkway and El Camino Real. The total cost is
estimated at $14.1 million (previously appropriated).
Railroad Double Tracking – It is a City Council Goal to break ground on lowering the railroad tracks
in a trench through the Village to improve safety, community connectivity, quality of life and
economic value. To begin this effort, funding in the amount of $2.0 million has been included in the
FY 2018-19 CIP.
Road Diet and Traffic Calming Projects along
Valley Street and Kelly Drive – Projects are
planned in the next five years to provide
complete street solutions so that the varied
user of these roads, including pedestrians and
bicyclists, are provided for in a balanced and
equitable manner. The total cost is estimated
at $3.2 million.
Terramar Coastal Improvement – The project
will ultimately improve the public right of way
along Carlsbad Boulevard and Cannon Road
to provide a complete street, including
pedestrian/non-vehicular facilities, and along
the bluff, to enhance the quality of the open
space and beach access. Funding of $6.7
million has been previously allocated to this
project.

and Barrio is planned at a total cost of $1.5 million.
Village Intelligent Parking – Following the recommendations of the Village Parking Plan, this project
will install vehicle occupancy detectors in various locations in the Village using a ‘Park Once’ smart
phone application, and decrease congestion in the Village caused by cars searching for parking.
The initial cost estimate is $300,000.
WATER/WASTEWATER PROJECTS
The city’s water and wastewater projects are vital to the continued health and welfare of its citizens.
Most new lines are built and paid with impact fees collected with new development. 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. In the next five years, an additional $68.8 million in
funding is scheduled for both new and replacement water and sewer projects.
Vista/Carlsbad Interceptor & Agua Hedionda Lift Station Replacement – This project consists of a
set of individual projects that will ultimately construct a parallel sewer interceptor system to
accommodate existing and future sewer flows from the cities of Vista and Carlsbad. The individual
projects include a main in Jefferson Street, replacement of the Agua Hedionda Lift Station, and a
main from the lift station to the Encina Wastewater Facility. The overall total cost estimate for this
set of projects totals $64.4 million, of which approximately 64 percent is funded by the City of Vista
and 36 percent by the City of Carlsbad.
Wastewater
Other wastewater facilities scheduled for construction or replacement within the next five years
include:
• Buena Interceptor Sewer Improvements
• Faraday/El Camino Real Sewer Replacement
• Las Palmas Trunk Sewer
• Villas Sewer Lift Station Replacement
In total, the new construction, replacement projects, ongoing condition assessments, repairs and
upgrades to the city’s wastewater facilities are expected to cost $39.3 million in the next five years.
Water Lines
Major water facilities scheduled for construction, maintenance or replacement within the next five
years are estimated at $9.5 million, and include the following locations:
• Aviara Parkway and Plum Tree
• El Fuerte and Corintia Street Pressure Reducing Station
• Fire Flow System Improvements
• Hydroelectric Generator at Desal Flow Control Facility No. 5
• Maerkle Reservoir Floating Cover Replacement
• Palomar Airport Waterline Realignment
• San Dieguito Water Intertie and Pipeline Extension
• Santa Fe II Inlet Pipeline
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-7
In addition, $18.7 million is included in the next five years for miscellaneous pipeline
replacements, repair and maintenance projects, a condition assessment program, and a water
valve repair and replacement program.
Recycled Water Expansion
Expansion to the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility, including construction of additional pipelines
and a reservoir, are anticipated to cost $34.5 million (previously appropriated). These facilities are
expected to meet the 76 percent increase in future recycled water demand. The expansion is
expected to increase the recycled water supply from 4 to up to 8 million gallons per day (mgd).
With diminishing potable water resources available, alternative supplies such as recycled and
desalinated water become increasingly important in supplementing the total water supply.
DRAINAGE PROJECTS
The city’s drainage infrastructure plays an important role in handling storm water runoff flows, as
well as maintaining the water quality of the city’s creeks, lagoons and ocean. Carlsbad supports
programs that will ensure that all water bodies within the city are safe and clean and, where
possible, open to the public at all times. The system consists of drainage pipes 30-inches or larger
in diameter, large concrete and rock lined channels, permanent sedimentation basins and
miscellaneous large facilities. As the city continues to age, it will become necessary to repair and
replace the lines that already exist. An additional $7.3 million will be added to the program in the
next five years.
CAPITAL PROJECTS THROUGH FISCAL YEAR 2032-33
The CIP for FY 2018-19 to FY 2032-33 outlines approximately 240 projects at a cost of $459.8
million as shown below:
OVERVIEW OF FISCAL YEAR 2018-19 TO 2032-33
The spending plan includes $44.2 million, or 10 percent of future CIP expenditures, for future park
development projects located within all four quadrants of the city.
Approximately 24 percent of future expenditures, or $112.4 million, are planned for street and traffic
signal construction projects. Projects include an adaptive traffic signal program, road-widening
projects, road diet and traffic calming projects, Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment, and funding for
sidewalk construction, concrete repair work, ADA projects, and parking lot and pavement
maintenance programs.
Wastewater projects are expected to cost over $95.5 million, or 21 percent, for numerous pipeline
construction and rehabilitation projects, as well as improvements to the Encina Wastewater
Treatment facility, which makes up the bulk of the estimated total, at $72 million.

H-8
Future water and recycled water projects include construction of new waterlines, both potable and
recycled, and expansion of the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility. Replacement of existing potable
waterlines and reservoir improvements are also included in this category. A total of $76.3 million,
or 17 percent of the total CIP, is planned for these projects.
Construction and maintenance of civic facilities such as libraries, administrative buildings, and
police and fire facilities are currently estimated at $93.7 million, or 20 percent of the total planned
capital expenditures to build out. This category also includes construction of a new City Hall.
Drainage projects are 5 percent of the total spending plan, at $20.9 million and the remaining 4
percent, or $16.8 million are for loans and repayments. There are times when one fund will loan
money to another fund to cover a temporary shortfall due to the timing of revenues and
expenditures.
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 external 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.
The unfunded projects are:
• Business Park Recreational Facility (partial funding)
• Cannon Lake Park
• Carlsbad Boulevard Widening Mountain View to Northerly City Limits (partial funding)*
• Carlsbad Boulevard/Palomar Airport Road Improvements (partial funding)*
• Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment, Segments 3-5
• Robertson Ranch (NE Quadrant) Park Development (partial funding)
(*) These projects are in the Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) program approved by the City Council on
May 12, 2009, which was planned to generate enough revenue to pay for 20 percent of the
total cost of these projects, the remaining 80 percent is unfunded.
FUTURE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
There are a variety of revenues that are used to fund the capital projects. In order to estimate
revenues received 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 tend to
correlate with the economic climate.
Every year, city staff evaluates all existing and future private development projects and compares
this information to the capacity of the city using adopted general plans. Information about existing
development activity combined with estimates of how remaining net developable land might
develop is then summarized to prepare future projections about when and where residential and
non-residential development will occur. The following table shows the number of residential units
and non-residential square feet of development used in calculating estimated revenues for FY
2018-19 and subsequent years to build out.
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-9
Administrative Services Department staff prepare financial forecasting schedules to ensure that
funding will be sufficient for construction of 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 in evaluating 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.
Conservatively, about 3,100 residential units are anticipated for future development, and it is
currently estimated that the city is more than 90 percent built out. Residential development for FY
2018-19 is projected at 409 units, and, over the next five years, should average 340 units per year.
The amount of non-residential development is projected at about 949,000 square feet over the next
five years, a decrease of 3.2 million square feet from the prior five-year period.
Projects include several neighborhood commercial/retail developments, hotels and timeshares,
and other office and mixed-use projects. Development estimates provide data 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.

REVENUES
Over the next 15 years, revenues for Capital Projects are estimated at $668 million and are
segregated into five major funding sources: (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.
Capital Improvement Program Revenues
FY 2018-19 to FY 2032-33
$668 million
Approximately 17 percent of all capital revenue is received as a result of development (Developer
Fees and Financing Districts in the chart above), and is dependent upon assumptions made about
the city's annual growth in dwelling units and commercial/industrial square feet. These 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,
Community Facilities Districts (CFD) and Bridge and Thoroughfare Benefit Districts (BTD). Water
and wastewater replacement revenues generated by user fees equal approximately 29 percent of
total revenues, and are used to pay for replacement of existing water and sewer facilities.
Infrastructure replacement revenues, equal to 28 percent, are 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 26 percent consists of revenues from other
agencies and include federal and state grants, the county sales tax program (TransNet), Gas Tax,
and contributions or reimbursements from cities, developers, and other agencies.
CALCULATION OF FUTURE FEES
The revenue projections in the CIP 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 57 percent and 43 percent, 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 $198,400 per multi-family dwelling unit, and $366,800 per
single-family dwelling unit. A building permit valuation of $51 per square foot of construction is
used to calculate non-residential Public Facilities Fees.
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-11
In order to calculate estimated revenues for Traffic Impact Fees, the number of average daily trips
was computed for each type of development use. An attached multi-family residential dwelling unit
is assigned either eight or six trips and a detached single-family unit is assigned 10 trips per day.
The trips-per-day value for commercial and industrial buildings are 40 and eight trips per 1,000
square feet of development, respectively, although the actual volume of trips generated by
commercial and industrial buildings can vary widely depending on the ultimate land use.
Community Facilities District No. 1 is a citywide district established to finance various civic facilities
required under the city’s Growth Management Plan. CFD No. 3 was established for the Faraday
Avenue and Melrose Drive Extensions east of El Camino Real, as well as the extension of El Fuerte.
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.
Bridge and Thoroughfare Fee Districts are formed by property owners to finance specific road
construction projects located within 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.
SUMMARY
The FY 2018-19 CIP is guided by the city’s commitment to ensure that high quality facilities and
infrastructure are constructed and maintained to serve the citizens, businesses, and visitors who
come to Carlsbad. Carlsbad’s philosophy has been to build quality capital facilities, which meet
and, at times, exceed Growth Management standards, in addition to reflecting the needs and wants
of all who live, work and play in Carlsbad now and well into the future. The FY 2018-19 CIP reflects
the commitment of Carlsbad’s City Council and staff to continue providing the highest standards of
quality for our community today and in the future.
FY 2018-19 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW
H-12
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 11 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 11 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 in the next
15 years. The timing of construction of facilities is governed by the rate of development and the 11
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 2018-19 CIP, compliance with the Growth Management Plan is
continued.

ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
The city’s accounting system and related budgets are 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,
which is also the basis for budgeting. 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 cost/benefit 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. The legal level of budgetary control is the fund level, and expenditures should not exceed budgeted
amounts at the fund level. Budgetary control is maintained through the city’s accounting system,
as well as through monthly reporting on all revenue and expenditure accounts and other special
reports summarizing the financial position of the city. The City Council adopts the formal budget for
all funds prior to the beginning of each fiscal year and may amend the budget, as necessary,
throughout the year. 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 annually prepares 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.
