May 12 2004
To the Citizens ofCupertino Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
The ongoing recession continuing State revenue raids and higher costs have conspired to make
this upcoming budget year one of the most difficult in the Csity y5e0arhistory
Sales tax roughly one third of our operating budget is down 33 or014030from ist
109909high
The hotel tax transient occupancy tax remains flat051060into 200054 33 below
the 200010 level This is in spite of the fact that a large new hotel has been added to the
inventory
Utility Users Tax Office vacancy rates have gone from 2to 26in the past two years
This has had a direct impact on the Csity utility tax which is flat for the current year 2004
05 and projected to increase only3for the following year
Vehicle License Fees VLF Two years ago the State of California decided to reduce
taxes due to the large surplus created by a strong economy Unfortunately the refund was not
given from State revenues but from vehicle license fee revenues which have been dedicated
to municipal services since the fee was initiated The State promised to backfill the reduction
with the surplus however the recession eliminated the surplus So far the State has taken
07080of our vehicle license fee
Interest earnings are down approximately 0800or 57 from 109909 as the money
set aside for construction projects has been spent on those projects and interest rates have
declined
State Raids In addition to the 07080 of our vehicle license fee which the State has
borrowed the latest infonnation is that the State will take another 060303in fiscal year
200054 and again in 200065 with a partial pay back in fiscal year 200076 This will be
accomplished by the Sstate keeping portions of our property tax sales tax and vehicle
license fee
While several cuts have been made in the past two years other expenses are up
The esmployer share of the PERS retirement program is up 462 increasing costs by
060206over last year
I
Printedon Recycled Paper
The Ssheriff Office has identified additional costs to the City for current services as their
benefits have increased by01100 We are currently negotiating with the Sheriff to lower
this increase
The cost for staffing and maintaining the new Teen Center will be08090
In addition other expanded facilities coming on line next year including the Library new
Community Hall and City Center Park will raise our maintenance costs 030905
In order to contain our costs within the projected revenue and reserve several more cuts are
necessary
Sheriff Contract
While up until now we have been able to maintain the service level under our contract with the
Sheriff given the available revenue and a substantial increase in the cost of the same basic
service it is now necessary to make some service cuts in this area The adopted budget does not
include
Community Resources Sergeant
DARE Program
I School Resource Officer 9 months
01040
07000
010209
Vacant Positions
Anticipating the declining economy and inevitable State revenue grabs I have left eleven
positions vacant over the past year and half The General Fund pays for eight and one half of
these positions These positions have remained authorized but not funded for the fiscal years
200054 and 200065 in order to balance this budget By not funding salary and benefits General
Fund expenses are reduced by approximately 0500in each of the fiscal years
Other Cuts
In addition to the hiring freeze it has been necessary to cut the following programs in the current
year200043
Red Light Program
New Vehicle Purchases
EGovemment Phase II
Social Service Agency Grants
wCiidtyeConference and Meeting Expense
Cupertino Day at Blackberry Farm
Traffic Signal Upgrades
Walkability Modifications
Traffic Calming
Skate Park CIP and Operating Funds
Memorial Ball Field Refurbishment
Sidewalk Contract Funds
2
In addition to these cuts and the cuts to the Ssheriff contract mentioned above it was necessary
to make several other cuts to balance next ysear budget These include
Suspension ofLeadership Cupertino and Tsomorrow Leaders Today
Use the Library Excess Hours to pay back theFEFLoan
Reduction of the Summer Concert Series Cinema at Sundown and Shakespeare in the
Park
Change in Animal Service Providers
Elimination of contracting out for various services
Reduction of Noontime and SAcfhtoeorl Programs
Elimination of mailings for the Senior Newsletter Evening Programs and Health and
Safety Fair
General service reductions resulting from a seven percent reduction in staffing
Festival pooocukfettexpenditures
I am hopeful that the negotiations now underway with our employee groups will soon be
concluded and result in additional savings to the budget
In addition the fiscal crisis created by the State has reached significant enough levels to force a
change in leadership and serious consideration of structural changes in the ability of the State to
balance its budget on the backs of local government
However even with past cuts and cuts proposed in this budget unless the economy rebounds in
the next year and a half our fiscal position over the next five years will be difficult The
proposed budget uses the sale of excess property and a refund to the General Fund by the Solid
Waste Fund to maintain our Economic Uncertainty Reserve In the long run absent a vigorous
economic recovery we will have to find new revenue sources or curtail service levels
Respectfully submitted

Cupertino owes its name and earliest mention in
recorded history to the 1776 expedition led by the
Spaniard Don Juan Bautista de Anza from Sonora
Mexico to the Port of San Francisco to found the
presidio of St Francis
Leaving the majority of the party of men women and
children in Monterey to rest from their travels deAnza
his diarist and cartographer Petrus Font and 18 other
men pressed on through the Santa Clara Valley in late
March to their San Francisco destination
With the expedition encamped in what is now
Cupertino Font christened the creek next to the
encampment the Arroyo San Joseph Cupertino in honor
of his patron San Guiseppe San Joseph of Copertino
Italy The arroyo is now known as Stevens Creek
The village of Cupertino sprang up at the crossroads of
SSuanrnaytovaglae Road now DeAnza Boulevard and
Stevens Creek Boulevard It was first known as West
Side but by 1898 the post office at the Crossroads
needed a new name to distinguish it from other similarly
named towns John T Doyle a San Francisco lawyer
and historian had given the name Cupertino to his
winery in recognition of the name bestowed on the
nearby creek by Petrus Font In 1904 the name was
applied to the Crossroads and to the post offIce when the
Home Union Store incorporated under the name The
Cupertino Stores Inc
fl Uitory
Many of Csupertino pioneer European settlers planted their land in grapes Vineyards and wineries proliferated on
Montebello Ridge on the lower foothills and on the flat lands below
After 1906 a lot more than grape growing was going on in Cupertino Orchards were thriving and new businesses were
being started In the late 1s940 Cupertino was swept up in Santa Clara Vsalley postwar population explosion
Concerned by unplanned development higher taxes and piecemeal annexation to adjacent cities Csupertino community
leaders began a drive in 1954 for incorporation Cupertino rancher Norman Nathanson the Cupertino Monta Vista
Improvement Association and the Fact Finding Conunittee played important roles in this movement Incorporation was
approved in the September 27 1955 election Cupertino officially became Santa Clara Csounty 13th City on October 10
1955
A major milestone in Csupertino development was the creation by some of the csity largest landowners of Vallco
Business and Industrial Park in the early 1s960 Of the 25 property owners 17 decided to pool their land to form Vallco
Park six sold to Varian Associates a thriving young electronics firm founded by Russell Varian and two opted for
transplanting to farms elsewhere The name Vallco was derived from the names of the principal developers Varian
Associates and the Leonard Lester Craft and Orlando families

approved an extension of the utility tax from a sunset date of2015 to 2030 This extension will
correspond with the extended debt maturity dates as a result of refinancing for capital

REVENUE SUMMARY
Intergovernmental Revenues
Intergovernmental revenues comprise approximately 128of the Csity total revenues and
consist of State motor vehicle license taxes State gas tax and various grants from federal state
or county agencies This revenue fluctuates widely depending on grant awards and allocations
With the enormity of the State budget deficit and the overall economy nationwide this revenue is
classified at risk The State borrowed 07080 of vehicle license fees in 200043 with the
promise to pay them back in 2006 It is highly probable that this revenue stream will again be
taken away this year
In 200403 Cupertino became an entitlement city for housing and community development block
grants which increased our grant allocation from 06000to almost0500per year

Gann Appropriations Limit
200054Budget
Article XIIIB of the California State Constitution as enacted by Proposition 4 the Gann initiative
of 1979 mandates a limit on the amount of proceeds of taxes that state and local governments
can receive and appropriate authorize to spend each year The purpose of this law is to limit
government spending by putting a cap on the total proceeds of taxes that may be appropriated
each year The original Article XIIIB was further modified by Proposition 111 and SB 88
approved by California voters in June of 1990 Proposition 111 allows cities more flexibility in
choosing certain inflation and population factors to calculate the limit

The limit is different for each agency and the limit changes each year Each ysear limit is based
on the amount of tax proceeds that were authorized to be spent in fiscal year 179798 in each
agency modified for changes in inflation and population in each subsequent year Proposition
111 has modified those factors to allow cities to choose either the growth in California Per Capita
Income or the growth in rnesiodenntial assessed valuation due to new construction in the city
Alternatively the city could select a population growth factor represented by the population
growth in Santa Clara County Each year the city establishes its appropriations limit for the
following fiscal year The Csity appropriation limit for fiscal year 200043was02545236and
