Fiscal Impact Statement: The L.A. for Kids Steering Committee reports that adoption of an Ordinance and Resolution of Intention to Levy the Proposition K: L.A. for Kids Assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-25 indicates the Council's intention to levy assessments totaling $25 million to acquire and construct park and recreational and cultural facilities serving youth. The assessment can only be used for capital improvements, acquisition of land, Proposition K Program administration and maintenance of completed projects. The operating cost for Proposition K projects completed in future years will be funded by the annual operating budget adopted for City departments and with independent funding for projects operated by external entities. For FY 2024-25, $4.6 million in General Fund reimbursements are anticipated for program administration ($0.50 million) and maintenance ($4.13 million) as identified in the report findings, Section 3. The RAP reports an annual fiscal impact of $6.47 million once active Proposition K projects, currently in various stages of development, become operational over future years. This includes $2.60 million for maintenance and $3.87 million for operations (Attachments 5 and 6). The fiscal impact for completed projects will be partially offset by Proposition K maintenance funding. However, this annual offset will no longer be available once the Proposition K Program ends in FY 2026-27. In FY 2023-24, RAP will receive an award of $4.01 million for current year maintenance awards.

Financial Policies Statement: The L.A. for Kids Steering Committee reports that the actions recommended in this report comply with the City’s Financial Policies.

LADWP should experience new revenues from the potential 40 new residential units but that amount is unknown at this time.

Community Impact Statement: None submitted.

         ​​​​​​​
      2. RSRC 5361, Related Costs Reimbursement: $31,062.66

Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations stated in the report include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures totaling $25.46 million. This consists of $11.80 million from various special funds, $3.64 million in Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA) financing, $2.57 million in Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure Program (CTIEP) funds, and $7.45 million from the General Fund. All transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds, reimbursements, or revenues. There is no additional General Fund impact for operations and maintenance costs as a result of these recommendations.

Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations stated in the report comply with the City’s Financial Policies in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances needed to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current budget year.

Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA debt is a General Fund obligation. The authorization of $3.40 million in MICLA funding for Items A, L, NN, OO, QQ, RR, XX, YY, and CCC contained in the CAO report dated May 3, 2024, attached to the Council file, would cause the City to borrow $3.40 million at an approximate five and a half percent interest rate over 20 years. The total estimated debt service for these nine MICLA-financed capital improvement projects totaling $3.40 million is $5.70 million, including interest of approximately $2.30 million. During the life of the bonds, the estimated average annual debt service is $0.30 million over 20 years. Because future interest rates cannot be fully predicted, actual interest rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. In accordance with the City's Debt Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide in evaluating the affordability of future debt. The debt ceiling for non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is six percent. The revised 2023-24 Adopted Budget non voter-approved debt ratio is 2.59 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non voter-approved debt limit.
