JOHNSON, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE DATE: AUGUST 20, 2018 SUBJECT: CITY TREASURER’S ACCOUNTING OF ALL RECEIPTS, DISBURSEMENTS AND FUND BALANCES FOR THE MONTHS OF MARCH 2018 THROUGH MAY 2018 BACKGROUND: California Government Code Section 41004 requires the City Treasurer to submit to the City Clerk and the City’s legislative body a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements and fund balances monthly. The recommended action requests the City Council receive and file the attached reports for the periods of July 2017 through February 2018. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council take the following actions: 1)Receive, review, and file the City Treasurer’s Reports of Receipts, Disbursements and Fund Balances for the months of March 2018 through May 2018. ANALYSIS: The City Treasurer and Finance Department currently reports to the City Council statements of citywide cash and investments and summaries of disbursements made via the accounts payable process on a monthly basis. While these reports will continue to be presented to the Council, California Government Code Section 41004 requires at least once each month, the city treasurer submit to the city clerk a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements, and fund balances and that the city treasurer file a copy with the legislative body. Therefore, the City Treasurer’s future monthly Statement of Cash and Investment Balances report to Council will be expanded to include Accounting of all Receipts, Disbursements, and Fund Balances in a format that complies with the government code and prepared by Finance Staff. APPROVED CITY COUNCIL 8/20/2018 Received and Filed Accounting of Receipts, Disbursements, and Fund Balances August 20, 2018 Page 2 In order to comply with the requirements of Government Code Section 41004, Finance Staff has prepared monthly statements containing cash balance details and summaries along with fund balance summaries. The attached statements provide a snapshot of the General Ledger cash and fund balances at the end of each month. Due to the timing of inflows and outflows of revenues and disbursements, cash and fund balances may vary dramatically from month-to-month. Thus, the reported balances at each month end may not reflect the audited financial status of each Fund at year-end closing. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. Prepared by: Reviewed and Approved: Talika M.
