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 FY 2019-20 indicates the Council's intention to levy assessments totaling $25 million to acquire and construct park and recreational facilities. The assessment can only be used for capital improvements, acquisition of land, Proposition K Program administration and maintenance of completed projects. The cost of operating Proposition K projects as they are 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 2019-20, $5.6 million in General Fund reimbursements are anticipated for program administration ($0.46 million), maintenance ($5.14 million) and project delivery expenses ($1.3 million). This funding includes both ongoing and one-time revenues that are available from funds remaining for completed Proposition K projects.
The RAP reports an annual fiscal impact of $8.19 million once active Proposition K projects, currently in various stages of development, become operational over future years. This includes $4.68 million for maintenance and $3.51 million for operations (Attachments 5 and 6 of the April 30, 2019 L.A. for Kids Steering Committee report, attached to the Council file). The fiscal impact for completed projects will be partially offset by Proposition K maintenance funding. The proposed 2018-19 maintenance award for RAP projects totals $4.13 million.
