Fiscal Impact Statement: The LAFKSC reports that adoption of an Ordinance and Resolution of Intention to Levy the Proposition K: L.A. for Kids Assessment for FY 2025-26 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 2025-26, $5.33 million in General Fund reimbursements are anticipated for program administration ($0.56 million) and maintenance ($4.77 million), as identified in the findings, Section 3 of said LAFKSC Report.

The Department of Recreation and Parks reports an annual fiscal impact of $6.54 million once active Proposition K projects, currently in various stages of development, become operational over future years. This includes $2.24 million for maintenance and $4.30 million for operations, as detailed in Attachments 5 and 6 of said LAFKSC Report. 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 2026-27. In 2024-25, the Department of Recreation and Parks will receive an award of $4.1 million for current year maintenance awards, as detailed in Attachment 9 of said LAFKSC Report.

Financial Policies Statement: The LAFKSC reports that the recommended actions comply with the City’s Financial Policies as one-time revenues are being used for one-time projects.
