City of Tukwila Allan Ekberg, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM TO: Finance & Governance Committee FROM: Vicky Carlsen, Finance Director BY: Aaron Williams, Fiscal Manager CC: Mayor Ekberg DATE: November 22, 2021 SUBJECT: September 2021 General Fund Departmental Budget -to -Actuals Report Summary The purpose of the September 2021 General Fund Financial Report is to summarize for the City Council the general state of departmental expenditures and to highlight significant items. The following provides a high-level summary of the departmental financial performance. The September 2021 Report is based on financial data available as of November 14, 2021, for the period ending September 30, 2021. Additional details can be found within the included financial report. Expenditures General Fund departmental expenditures totaled $42.52 million through September, which is $92 thousand less than the allocated budget of $42.61 million. Department 20, which is transfers to other funds, totaled $3.37 million, which is $849 thousand less than the allocated budget. The allocated budget is calculated to reflect year- to-date spending patterns of the previous year. Through the end of September, one department exceeds allocated budget. The Fire Department continues to exceed allocated budget primarily due to use of overtime. Approximately a third of overtime can be attributed to reimbursable overtime; specifically, the COVID testing site as well as a repeater malfunction. A budget amendment of just over $1 million was presented to City Council in November. Based on current information, the Fire Department should stay within the amended budget. Staff continues to closely monitor departmental budgets and will continue to keep the City Council fully informed of additional budgetary concerns through the end of the year. It should be noted that the budget reflected in the charts on the next few pages do not include the amendments as Council has not yet formally approved the budget amendment ordinance. 1 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Departmental Variances All but one General Fund department was under their allocated budget through September 2021. Noteworthy variances are: • The Fire Department is now $901 thousand over the allocated budget of $9.2 million. The variance is related to overtime & associated benefits compared to the allocated budget. A budget amendment for the Fire Department was included in the final budget amendment. Based on information as of November 1, 2021, the budget amendment should prevent the Fire Department from exceeding the amended budget. If use of overtime exceeds the current estimated usage through the end of the year, the department could exceed the amended budget. The chart below provides additional details on overtime associated with the Fire Department.

SUMMARY OF INVESTMENT POLICY It is the policy of the City of Tukwila to invest public funds in a manner that will provide maximum security with the highest investment return while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City while conforming to all state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds. INVESTMENT HOLDINGS As of September 30, 2021, the portfolio totaled $71.8 million comprised of $68.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $3.0 million in longer term investments. The attached "Cash and Investment Report" provides additional details on the cash and investment holdings of the City. Below is a comparison of the current portfolio allocation compared to the prior year-end.

Longer term investments held by the City are projected to pay $21 thousand during the remainder of the year. During the third quarter one bond investment was called and redeemed. In early October an additional $2 million bond investment was purchased for a term of 3.5 years and a yield to maturity of 0.75%. Additional Bond investments will be pursued during the year as opportunities are identified. The chart below provides the investment income Budget to Actual for the Government Funds and Enterprise funds. Investment Income Annual Budget YTD Actuals Pct of Budget Government Funds Enterprise Funds $ 290,500 $ 71,087 24.5% 118,000 37,068 31.4% $ 408,500 $ 108,155 26.5% RETURN ON INVESTMENTS The current overall portfolio yield on September 30th was 0.15% with the Washington State LGIP and the Columbia Bank money market accounts earning 0.087% and 0.18%, respectively. Longer term investment holdings have an average return of 0.79%. POLICY COMPLIANCE AND LIQUIDITY ANALYSIS The investment portfolio profile is within the range of all investment policy parameters. Throughout the pandemic, with the uncertainty of City revenues, longer term bond investments were not pursued, prioritizing liquidity of the portfolio in the short term to ensure we could meet the obligations of the City. This year we have begun expanding our investment holdings, keeping in mind the uncertainty of interest rates and high inflation in the economy. As we accumulate new portfolio holdings, we are targeting the more favorable rates in the 3-5 year maturity range. New bond investments made this year have been in this maturity range, with call options on most, to maximize returns. See "Policy Compliance & Liquidity Analysis" attachment for additional detail. The portfolio benchmark is the 2 -year treasury rate, which is closely tied to the changes in the Federal Reserve Fed Funds Rate. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there were significant cuts to the Fed Funds Rate reducing the rate to the current target of 0.00%-0.25%. The 2 -year treasury note rate has slightly increased recently, currently hovering around 0.28% as of September 30th 8 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 3 Recent indications from the Federal Reserve Board are that they may begin to rise interest rates in mid -2022 or early 2023; but high inflation and other economic factors could change those plans. The chart to the right illustrates the 2 -year treasury rate over the past 5 years. The investment portfolio will continue to be managed to take advantage of investment opportunities as they arise while maintaining adequate liquidity to meet obligations.

BACKGROUND Due to the COVID-19 emergency, the Tukwila City Council has been conducting its Committee and Council meetings virtually since March 30, 2020 in compliance with Governor's Proclamation 20-28. Virtual Council meetings using the MS Teams platform have been running well, including a public comment component. Committee meetings are now audio and video recorded due to the MS Teams interface, providing greater accessibility and transparency for the public. Public attendance at both Committee and Council meetings appears to be higher with the virtual meeting format. Proclamation 20-28.15, in effect until termination of the public health emergency, requires that all public meetings must be held remotely and agencies must provide an option for the public to attend through, at minimum, telephonic access. However, it also added an ability for agencies to hold an in-person component to a public meeting in addition to the remote/telephonic requirement with certain conditions. Due to this, the City Council held its annual retreat in person on June 11-12. As of June 30, 2021, agencies can hold in-person meetings with no restrictions on capacity, no physical distancing requirements, and if all attendees wear face masks in compliance with King County requirements. While the City Council recently directed ARPA funding to comprehensive modernization of meeting rooms, staff has already implemented interim solutions that currently allow for hybrid Committee and Council meetings. Currently the City is encouraging employee telework at least through January 3, 2022, which is in line with many other regional employers. In-person services are also limited as follows: • City Hall — Mondays & Wednesdays, 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. • Permit Center — Mondays & Wednesdays, 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. • Human Services — Mondays & Wednesdays, 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. • Tukwila Community Center — Mondays through Thursdays 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Fridays 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and Saturdays 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. • Municipal Court — Mondays & Wednesdays from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. • Police Department — Monday — Friday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM 17 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Staff has not conducted a comprehensive survey of other agencies, but informal inquiries revealed that meetings of the governing bodies are still largely virtual until technology improvements allowing hybrid meetings can be implemented. RECOMMENDATION Staff is seeking Committee discussion on next steps and the various considerations involved in resuming an in-person component to meetings. What additional information would be useful for the City Council to make the determination? Considerations include: • Virus transmission rates and safety of Councilmembers, staff and public. • Face covering requirement for those in person- discussions could be more difficult to hear. • Correlation with employee telework status.
