DESCRIPTION: Ea
st Bay Regional Park District is a system of beautiful public parklands and
ails in Alameda and Contra Costa counties. As of September 30, 2022, the District owns or
operates 125,496 acres of parklands, open space, and trails.
INCO
RPORATED: The Park District was incorporated in 1934 as a California Special District.
The Park District operates under Sections 5500-5595 of the Public Resources Code of the State
of California for the purpose of acquiring park, recreation, and open space land, and developing,
operating, and maintaining this land.
J
URISDICTION: The Park District’s boundaries encompass 1,745 square miles on the eastern
side of the San Francisco Bay, including all of Alameda and Contra Costa counties of California.
G
OVERNANCE: The Park District is a special district of the State of California subject to the
Public Resources Code 55000 – 5595, governed by a seven-member Board of Directors.
Directors are elected by the voters to serve four-year terms. Each Director represents a specific
geographic area (ward) of the District. The General Manager of the District, appointed by the
Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of the District.

CLIMATE:
The San Francisco Bay Area enjoys a “Mediterranean” climate that is temperate year-round.
Along the East Bay shoreline, you will experience annual average temperatures in the 60’s. Travel
inland just 24 miles, and the East Bay’s coastal range results in less moderate temperatures, with
highs in the low 100’s in the summer and low temperatures below freezing some winter days.
CHANGING CLIMATE:
Climate change remains a critical shared challenge for Bay Area residents as well as park
planners, designers and managers over the next ten years and beyond. Experts predict we will
experience warmer weather, drier air and more volatility in weather patterns, including extreme
storms, drought and fires. Over time, the biodiversity of flora and fauna within our parklands will
change with the
weather. Over the next century, projected sea level rise between 15 and 55 inches
will impact the District’s 40 miles of SF Bay Shoreline and 15 miles of Delta shoreline through
increased sand and bank erosion as well as the loss of wetlands that help protect our infrastructure
such as levees, piers and docks. Climate change is a source of concern particularly in regards to
California’s fresh water supplies, 40% of which passes through District parklands along the
California Delta.
FACILITIES:
The District provides a diversified land and water system of 73 regional parks, recreation areas,
wildernesses, shorelines, preserves, land banks and 31 regional, inter-park trails. The District’s
parks receive over 25 million visits each year. Park District facilities include:
•
Over 1,330 miles of trails within the parklands
•
8 freshwater lakes
•
3 swim lagoons
•
Operates 3 State Parks
•
2 San Francisco Bayshore beaches
•
3 swimming pools
•
40 lake fishing docks
•
3 Bay fishing piers
•
225 family campsites
•
5 cabins
•
42 youth camping areas
•
24 backpacking camps
•
7 equestrian centers
•
2 golf courses
•
1 disc-golf course
•
137 group picnic sites subject to reservation
•
10 interpretive and education centers
•
10 children’s playgrounds
•
1 adult exercise location
•
2 mobile education centers
•
1 mobile education exhibit
•
17 wedding, meeting, and banquet facilities
WILDLIFE AND WILDLANDS:
Over 90 percent of District lands are protected natural landscapes consisting of estuarine, saline-
brackish-fresh water emergent wetlands, willow woodlands, redwood forest, montane hardwood-
conifer forest, mixed evergreen forest, eucalyptus forest, coastal oak woodland, valley oak
woodland, blue oak woodland, blue oak-gray pine woodland, valley foothill riparian woodland,
EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT PROFILE

California sycamore-cottonwood riparian woodland, mixed chaparral, California sagebrush scrub,
annual and perennial grasslands, and fresh water habitats. This dynamic ecosystem supports
mountain lion, bobcat, gray fox, coyote, black-tailed deer, rainbow trout, California tiger
salamander, California red-legged frog, western pond turtle, snowy egret, western blue bird,
golden eagle, and other fish and wildlife representing more than 500 different vertebrate species.
The District is responsible for the protection, conservation, and recovery of 15 endangered
species (including 6 plants), 17 threatened species (including 1 plant), and 27 fully protected or
species of special concern.
ECOSYSTEM SERVICES:
The Park District’s 125,496 acres of parks, open space, and trails includes actively used recreation
areas, agricultural lands, as well as preserved grasslands, forests, wetlands, and riparian zones.
These lands offer a broad range of ecosystem services, consistent with the United Nations
Millennium Ecosystem Assessment categories.
A 2018 economic profile of the Park District quantified the annual economic value that the East
Bay Regional Park District provides to residents of the East Bay at over $500 million. Over $200
million of this value comes in ecosystem services. District parklands sequester 300,000 metric
tons of carbon dioxide, which translates to the removal of 60,000 vehicles from the roads each
year. In keeping with the environmental ethic of the East Bay Regional Park District’s Mission, the
District plans to generate much of its energy on-site and significantly reduce its greenhouse gas
emissions. The District’s ecosystem services include:
• Water Supply – Replenishment of groundwater supplies.
• Air Quality – Absorption of pollutants in the air.
• Moderation of Extreme Events – Open space buffers that absorb storm water and reduce
flood risks.
• Climate Stability – Regulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
• Soil Formation and Retention – Natural processes such as decomposition of organic
materials and avoided soil erosion.
• Habitat – Protection of unique soil and plant communities that support species.
• Pollination – Protection of species that contribute to other species’ reproduction.
• Waste Treatment – Natural purification of wastewater and solid wastes.
• Aesthetic Beauty – Enjoyment of scenic vistas and undisturbed nature.
• Carbon Sequestration – Storing of greenhouse gases and sequestering carbon through
trees, plants and soils.
• Recreation – Active use of District parklands, trails and facilities.
CHANGING POPULATION:
The East Bay’s population continues to grow, and the East Bay Regional Park District has noticed
a corresponding increase in park visitors. According to the US Census, Alameda County’s
population increased 10.2% between 2010 and 2020 (the most recent data available), and Contra
Costa County’s population increased 10.0% during this same time period.
The ethnic composition of the Bay Area also continues to change. International migration has
played a significant role in the growing diversity of the area. According to an Association of Bay
Area Governments (ABAG) report, over 32 percent of Alameda County residents were foreign
born, as were over 23 percent of Contra Costa County residents.
The Park District strives to meet the needs of our growing and evolving population, and in
particular, to be inclusive of underrepresented residents, including marginalized communities,
people of color, persons with disabilities, and elderly park visitors.
This changing and growing population was considered as the 2013 Master Plan was developed
EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT PROFILE

along with the
District’s Vision and Mission statements, which restate our commitment to meeting
the
challenges related to our diverse and ever-changing population.
DEMOGRAPHICS:
The quality of life available in the San Francisco Bay Area, and the East Bay in particular, is
well documented as fundamental to its vital, innovative, and diverse economy. This quality of
life is afforded by a Mediterranean climate, easily accessible high-quality parklands, open
spaces, waterways, world-class educational and cultural/arts institutions, a culturally diverse
and well-educated work force, vital urban centers, and transportation connectivity. As a result,
it has attracted the best and brightest employers, workers and students from around the world,
while also creating economic opportunities.

GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE
November 15, 2022
2023 BUDGET MESSAGE
To the Board of Directors, East Bay residents, and our park visitors:
I am pleased to present a 2023 Park District spending plan that totals more than $387 million. This
Proposed Budget
embodies the dual mission of the Park District – expanding access to safe and healthy
outdoor recreation for all, while simultaneously protecting and preserving the East Bay’s natural
and cultural resources.
I want to begin by acknowledging our East Bay Regional Park District employees - individuals who
have committed themselves to public service, land stewardship and environmental conservation and
who make this Park District possible. Our staff serve the 2.8 million residents of the East Bay, and
hundreds of thousands of visitors who come from across the globe to visit and enjoy the natural
beauty of our parklands.
In the coming year, our Park District staff and Board of Directors will be envisioning the future, as
we begin work on the sixth Park District Master Plan. This is a massive project undertaken every
ten years to ensure that the role and identity of the Park District is in alignment with the community
it serves. We will endeavor to retain the essence of previous master plans, while responding to
new pressures and envisioning new strategies and tactics to help us achieve our Mission and Vision.
At the same time that we are envisioning the future, the Park District will also be looking internally,
making changes to become a more nimble agency. The world is moving much more rapidly than it
has in the past. In 2023 we will be working to create a Park District that can take action quickly
and efficiently, ensuring that we can fulfill our mission to maintain and expand safe and healthy
parklands while also responding to unexpected events – such as climate-related storms, public
health crises, or changes in the economy.
Earlier this year, our Board of Directors held several Board Study Sessions, at which they articulated
their own goals for the Park District in the coming year. The 2023 Proposed Budget incorporates
many projects and programs to support those Board goals, including:
Workforce Development and Support
Wildfire Mitigation and Prevention
Land Conservation and Expanding Public Access to Nature
Climate-Smart Stewardship and Restoration
Investing in our workforce will be a strong area of emphasis in 2023. For example, this budget
provides funding to create a new Office of Equity to be housed in the General Manager’s Office, and
also proposes restoring our Apprenticeship Program. The 2023 budget also includes funding to
support the continued efforts of the recently created Employee Appreciation Committee.
In 2023 the Park District will also continue to take a leadership role in wildfire risk mitigation. One
example of this work is a pilot project underway at Anthony Chabot Regional Park to remove 80
acres of dead and dying trees while using a “Carbonator” to convert the wood debris into carbon-
neutral biochar -- a soil enhancer that improves water retention and increases biodiversity in the
2023 Proposed Operating Budget

East Bay Regional Park District
GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE
soil, while also eliminating the need to truck wood debris off-site for disposal.
In the coming year the Park District will continue its efforts in the area of conservation, partnering
with the State of California and other land preservation agencies in the 30x30 Initiative, to conserve
30 percent of all State lands and coastal waters by 2030. This is an important opportunity for the
Park District to accelerate the protection of regional lands through acquisition, climate-smart
conservation and nature-based solutions in building resiliency from a changing climate while
centering equity and public access. The table below reflects the Park District’s status as the top
agency protecting land in the East Bay, and the twelfth largest conservation landowner in the entire
State of California. We should feel very proud of the massive success our agency has achieved in
land acquisition, despite our “regional” park district status.
Additionally, our 2023 budget includes programs and projects that respond to the significant
stewardship and restoration issues facing our region: the need for improved water infrastructure,
protecting habitat through open space acquisitions, as well as providing equitable services to our
visitors in the areas of interpretive and recreation services, parks and trails.
One notable change to our project funding strategy this year has been the implementation of a
Capital Project Prioritization Policy. This evaluation system is intended to prioritize funding for
projects that will provide the biggest benefit for park users. Projects are scored based on categories
such as equity, habitat and resource conservation, public access improvements and climate
preparedness, among others.
Listed below are some specific operating and project highlights of this 2023 Budget:
Funding for the operation of parklands expected to open or expand in 2023, including: Bay Area
Ridge Trail section connecting the Gelderman Property to Vallejo Mills Park; the opening of the
Patterson property at Coyote Hills; two new sections of the San Francisco Bay Trail at Doolittle
Drive and at Point Molate; and Phase I of the McCosker Creek Restoration Project at Sibley
Volcanic Preserve.
Wildfire mitigation funding, including an appropriation of $1.3 million to be used for fuels
management operations and grant matching funds; authorization to utilize existing project

to purchase an aquatic weed harvester.
Funding for workforce development and support, including the creation of a new Office of
Equity within the General Manager’s Office and a new Executive Director for the Regional Parks
Foundation. New staffing is also recommended for the Information Services (IS) department,
along with funding to improve the IS network infrastructure and software licensing.

projects, including a new Major Maintenance work unit in the Maintenance and Skilled Trades
Department to oversee the ADA program and the new Construction Management and
Maintenance System (CMMS), and to more effectively track work orders and preventive
maintenance. Additional funds are also allocated to the Design & Construction Unit.
An appropriation of $6.7 million from Measure WW capital bonds towards projects identified
in the measure and approved by voters. Projects include land acquisition and new park
development, such as the Thurgood Marshall Bailey Road Staging Area, the MLK Shoreline
Tidewater Day use area, the Oyster Bay Access & Picnic Area project, and the Tilden
Environmental Education Center. This 2023 WW appropriation is in addition to the $141.4
million that has already been allocated to over 203 projects.
An appropriation of $3.1 million in Measure FF funding for operations and public safety staff in

in the measure and approved by voters, including a project to Improve Keller Beach at Miller
Knox Regional Shoreline, and to improve water quality at Lake Temescal.
An appropriation of $5.0 million from the Major Infrastructure Repair and Replacement Fund
for critical infrastructure projects, including $450,000 to replace the shade structure at Big
Break, $200,000 for the Contra Loma Swim Lagoon, and $500,000 to upgrade restroom facilities
across the Park District.
Summary of 2023 Budgeted Revenues & Expenditures
The Park District’s 2023 total revenue budget of $334.7 million reflects an approximately 7.6%
growth in property tax from the 2022 budget. The growth in property tax revenue is attributed
to assessed value increases in real estate markets in both Alameda and Contra Costa counties.
The 2023 expenditure budget includes $387.6 million in total appropriations (including transfers),
with $238.3 million in operating costs, $39.0 million for debt service, and $48.2 million in new
project appropriations.
The chart on the following page reflects the allocation of resources by expenditure type. To provide
2023 Proposed Operating Budget

East Bay Regional Park District
GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE
a well-managed system of open space parklands, the Park District allocates almost half (47%) of its
annual funding for a workforce committed to its mission. Other major appropriations include
supplies & services (26%), capital outlay (5%), debt service on bonds (12%), intra-district charges
(8%) and grants & agreements (2%).
Additionally, the 2023 Budget includes an increase of 40.3 full-time equivalent positions (FTEs),
bringing the total to 956.7 FTEs, a 4.2% increase. A complete listing of all budgeted positions can
be found in the supplemental section of this document.
Responding to Fiscal Pressures Facing the Park District
As always, the Park District uses a long-term approach to monitor and plan for the future. Despite
strong revenue growth over the past several years, the Park District continues to have long-term
unfunded liabilities to address. Some of these significant fiscal pressures and liabilities include:
1. Managing safe and healthy forests by reducing fire hazards in sensitive areas within District
parklands.
2. Fulfilling commitments to voters under Measures AA, CC, FF, and WW to leverage key
property acquisitions and construct park facilities.
3. Ensuring sufficient future funding to open and operate new parks and trails for public use.
4. Planning for the constantly increasing costs of land acquisitions and new park construction,
including environmental permits.
5. Modernizing current park facilities for future sustainability.
6. Addressing the unfunded long-term costs of environmental mitigation and ecological
restoration.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
A - 5
East Bay Regional Park District
GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE
7. Preparing to meet the obligations of employee healthcare costs and pension requirements.
8. Addressing long-term costs of adapting to and mitigating the effects of a changing climate
including sea-level rise, drought, flooding and fire.
The Park District has developed strategies over the past years to address these fiscal pressures,
prepare for economic downturns, and to address future liabilities. A partial listing of these
strategies follows:
Financial Management
Capital Project Prioritization Policy: In 2022 the Park District implemented an evaluation system
to help prioritize funding allocation for projects, such that limited resources are allocated
towards endeavors that will provide the biggest benefit for park users. Projects are scored
based on categories such as equity, habitat and resource conservation, public access
improvements and climate preparedness, among others.
General Reserve Fund Balance Policy: The General Fund Reserve (Unassigned) Fund Balance
Policy establishes clear targets for the retention of prudent reserve fund levels. The policy was
reviewed by the Board Finance Committee in 2019, and new targets are to be confirmed every
five years after being analyzed under specific criteria by the Park District’s Chief Financial
Officer. Fund balance surpluses above this target may be considered for one-time
appropriations.
Park & Facility Management
• Opening New Parks - The Park District conducts multi-year forecasting to determine the likely
year in which new parklands, trails or facilities will be available to the public (the Pipeline), and
the cost of staffing and operating these parks and facilities. Each budget cycle, the operational,
staffing and maintenance costs for the Pipeline receive priority over other budget requests.
• Wildfire Hazard Reduction & Resource Management Plan - The Park District has worked
continuously to prepare for and prevent wildfires. The District maintains its own fire
department to respond to emergency situations and has developed a Wildfire Hazard Reduction
and Resource Management Plan which includes annual work plans for fuels treatment District-
wide, including hand-labor removal, prescribed burns, mowing, weed abatement, animal grazing,
and tree thinning.
• Major Infrastructure Renovation & Replacement Fund – Since 2011, the Park District has
engaged in a long-term planning process to identify the current maintenance status of all its
major facilities, infrastructure, and pavement in order to establish a new Internal Service Fund,
called the Major Infrastructure Renovation & Replacement (MIRR) Fund. The MIRR Fund
establishes dedicated funding for existing facilities to ensure that they are maintained at a certain
level, and to ensure that funds are available for necessary repair and replacement.
• Adapting to Rising Sea Levels – The Park District has worked with agencies such as the Bay
Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) to conduct climate adaptation planning
efforts and vulnerability studies of risks to natural areas and existing infrastructure. Shoreline
park projects such as Point Pinole’s Dotson Marsh, Bay Point Regional Shoreline and Coyote
Hills Regional Park incorporate best practices for restoring and enhancing tidal wetlands. These
wetlands are natural buffers to urban areas providing flood water detention and storm water
treatment. The Park District’s San Francisco Bay Trail projects, such as at Point Molate, are
planned and built with consideration for expected sea level rise.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
A - 6
East Bay Regional Park District
GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE
Pension & Retiree Medical Costs:
• In 2007, the Park District established its Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Trust, setting
aside funding for retired Park District employees in order to ensure that retiree medical costs
are fully funded for the future.
• In 2017, an irrevocable pension trust was created to pre-fund growing retirement obligations
and establish long-term funding strategies aimed at stabilizing and minimizing pension costs over
the next 10 years.
The Park District continues to seek the best governmental financial practices to stabilize or reduce
future annual costs and implement other long-term strategies. The Park District has received the
Distinguished Budget Award and Certificate of Achievement for Financial Reporting, for seventeen
and twenty consecutive years, respectively. The Park District also maintains an excellent bond
rating of AAA from Standards and Poor’s (S&P) and Aaa from Moody’s Investor Service.
Conclusion
In closing, I would like to express my appreciation to our entire Board of Directors who are
consistent supporters of the hardworking employees of our Park District. In particular, I want to
recognize the outstanding work of our two retiring Board Members, Ayn Wieskamp and Beverly
Lane, who have diligently advanced the Park District’s mission and vision over their decades of Park
District service. They have been tireless advocates, reflecting the values of the Park District in their
work. Their good counsel, wit and wisdom will be missed by us all.

East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
2023 Budget Summary
The East Bay Regional Park District’s Proposed 2023 Budget is structurally balanced and in
compliance with the District’s Balanced Budget Policy. This Policy states that financial resources
are required to equal or exceed uses at the time of budget adoption. It further states that the fund
balance or net assets (amount by which fund assets exceed fund liabilities) in the special revenue
funds, debt service funds, capital project funds and proprietary funds may be used as a resource
to achieve a balanced budget. The General Fund Reserve Fund Balance Policy states that “Board
approval is required for the use of the reserve balance. This approval can be obtained as part of
the annual budget process… Uses may include…capital and infrastructure needs which lack other
funding sources.”
The Park District’s budgeted resources (revenues) for all funds total $277.2 million (not including
transfers in of $57.5 million), which is 18.4% more than the 2022 budget. The increase in revenue
is primarily attributed to increased taxes and assessments ($35.3 million), and increased charges
for services ($10.6 million). Residential property values have grown significantly in the past year
and are expected to increase property tax revenues in 2023. Additionally, greater revenue from
charges for services is related to a change in the treatment of the Equipment Fund as an internal
service fund. A complete analysis of all revenues can be found beginning on page B-29.
The Par
k Dis
trict’s budgeted uses (appropriations) total $330.1 million (not including transfers out
of $57.5 million), which is 28.9% higher than the prior year budget. Increased budgets for projects
(shown below in the category of supplies & services), debt service, intra-district charges, capital
expenditures, and personnel costs were the primary drivers of this increase.
The difference between Park District resources and uses will be funded through the planned use
of fund balance. The General Fund will use $22.3 million in unreserved fund balance. The
General Fund balance available comes from several sources, including an accumulation of
revenues received in excess of expenditures from prior years’ supply, services and personnel
costs. Project Funds will utilize $20.1 million of fund balance. Proceeds from prior year bond sales
of Measure AA and Measure WW are recorded in fund balance. These bond proceeds will be
used for capital projects and the Measure WW Local Grant Program in 2023. Expenditures from
the Internal Service Funds, Debt Service Funds, Special Revenue Funds, and Permanent Funds
are also funded by a planned use of fund balance.
General Fund revenue is budgeted at $201.7 million, which is $12.1 million greater than 2022
budgeted revenue. The growth is attributed mainly to the 7.6% increase in property tax revenue.
Another notable change in the General Fund revenues is that investment earnings are not

East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
budgeted in 2023 due to the volatility of this revenue source, resulting in a -$1.3 million decrease
in budgeted General Fund revenue from the prior year.
General Fund appropriations total $190.5 million (not including transfers out of $33.5 million), as
compared to $177.5 million in the prior year, a 7.3% increase. The increase in appropriations is
attributed primarily to the following:
• 0.5% increase personnel costs
• -10.6% decrease in supplies
• 18.6% increase in services
• -64.2% decrease in capital outlay
• 56.7% increase in intra-district charges
The areas of decrease are primarily related to the change in accounting treatment for the
Equipment Services department, which moved these costs to an internal service fund, called the
Major Equipment Fund.
In 2023 transfers out of the General Fund total $33.5 million, compared to $11.5 million in the
prior year. This increase in transfers out funding is primarily due to more capital projects being
funded by the 2023 General Fund budget process, rather than those appropriations occurring at
mid-year, which was the prior practice.
Long-term and Current Priorities for the Park District
The Park District’s Master Plan, most recently updated in 2013, establishes long-term priorities
and goals. The Master Plan summarizes critical areas of focus that have been identified by the
Board of Directors, the public and staff, such as: “trails for all,” “Healthy Parks / Healthy People,”
affirming the role and identity of the Regional Parks, balancing funding priorities, meeting
expectations and sound fiscal practices, supporting the shift to “green communities,” developing
productive partnerships, responding to changes in demographics, and creating conservation and
management standards for cultural and historic resources.
The District’s current priorities and goals that tie to the Master Plan are addressed in the General
Manager’s Message and throughout this document. An updated to the Master Plan will be getting
underway in 2023.

BUDGET OVERVIEW
FEMA grants come from Measure CC and grants from the California Department of Forestry
and Fire Protection and, in the future, will come from Measure FF proceeds. The Park
District submitted a FEMA Hazard Fuels Mitigation Application for a $3.2 million Hazardous
Fuels Mitigation grant for Tilden and Claremont Canyon in 2019, with possible award by the

project areas receiving funds through the 2022 budget include Lake Chabot, Point Molate,
Temescal, and Point Pinole. Measure FF funding is also budgeted for park staff, public
safety, fuels management, water quality and green transportation within the Measure FF
boundary. As Measure FF is the extension of Measure CC, the majority of these
appropriations are for the sustained funding of staff.
To date, approximately $110,568,187 of the original $125 million in Measure WW Local
Grant funds have been dispersed throughout the communities of Alameda and Contra Costa
counties. There were no new applications for the Measure WW Local Grant Program in

Short and Long-term Financial Outlook for the Park District:
National Outlook
The Park District’s budget stands on solid economic footing in 2023, buoyed primarily by property
tax growth in the prior year. However, the revenue advances that have been predicted for this
year will likely be slowed considerably in the future, in the face of economic headwinds and with
the possibility of an economic recession in 2024.
To understand the Park District’s economic trajectory for 2023, it is helpful to reflect on the past
year’s events, both in the United States and across the globe. In early 2022 there was much
concern about a frightening phenomenon that hadn’t been seen in the US since the early 1980s:
high inflation. The Park District had recently adopted a budget that included a significant increase
in staffing – and the same thing was happening throughout the country. Most economists attribute
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 13
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
this job growth to consumer spending, which stemmed from the economic stimulus package
passed during the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Meanwhile, halfway across the world, Russian troops invaded the Ukraine–– sparking fear of
global conflict - another frightening phenomenon not experienced since the 1980s. The war in
Ukraine added fuel to the fire of high inflation by disrupting Ukrainian exports of grains, oil and
gas depended on by Europe and Africa in particular. A recent analysis by Barron’s calculated that
the war in Ukraine will add 3% to global inflation. Russia has compounded these disruptions by
deliberately reducing its own exports of oil and gas. The massive impact of the invasion had not
been anticipated, and many countries are struggling to untangle their Russian supply chains, and
most urgently, to find fuel sources to heat homes in the winter. For example, the cost to heat a
home in the United Kingdom is expected to increase almost 300% this winter.
And yet another source of inflation has been the consistent Covid lockdowns in China, which has
maintained a “zero Covid” policy. This policy has caused entire cities and factories to close for
weeks at a time, crimping global supply chains, and causing shortages which have also caused
price increases. Some economists have speculated that the zero Covid policy is having a greater
impact on inflation than the Ukraine war.
Attempting to quell inflation at its spring meeting, the Federal Reserve promised three interest
rate hikes in 2023. However, as of the writing of this message, the Fed has raised rates six times,
and additional rate increases are still expected this year.
All these strong headwinds mean that there are very few economists who believe that the Federal
Reserve can engineer a soft landing –slowing inflation while not sending the US economy into
recession. The latest economic projection from the US Conference Board is that US gross
domestic product (GDP), a measure of the economic activity of the country, will be 1.5 percent in
2022, 0.0 percent in 2023 and 1.7 percent growth in 2024. These projections for the US mirror
the projections for the rest of the globe. The latest information from the World Bank is that global
economic growth will be only 2.9 percent in 2022 – 4.1 percent lower than what had been originally
predicted in January. Further, the World Bank suggests that the global economy could be headed
for a stagflationary environment, reminiscent of the 1970s, when growth was sluggish yet interest
rates were extremely high.
One remaining bright spot in the economy is the national unemployment rate, which is now at 3.5
percent– matching the low unemployment rate last seen in February 2020. Interestingly, as of
September, according to Forbes magazine, office usage has returned to 50% of pre-pandemic
levels in 10 major metro areas surveyed. Only 5.2 percent of employed persons say that they are
teleworking because of the Covid pandemic.
California’s Economic Outlook
California’s economic growth in 2023 is expected to outpace that of the rest of the country. The
UCLA Anderson September Forecast for California suggests that the State’s strengths in the
areas of defense and technology will buoy the economy and that the greatest risks remain the
economic weakness in the transportation and logistics sectors, as consumers shift from goods to
services consumption. Additionally, the Forecast notes that the state’s annual population gains
have reversed, related to recent migration out of the state, along with limited immigration and
lower birth rates. The forecast notes that as a consequence of a weaker US economy, the
forecast for California is weaker than it was three months ago.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 14
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The forecast from Beacon Economics states that California’s economic recovery is being driven
by job gains in the leisure and hospitality industries along with the information technology sector,
and although California’s economic growth will slow, it will not be facing a significant recession.
Beacon believes that real estate prices will not be significantly impacted by increasing interest
rates, because most households have relatively strong balance sheets and low home-to-equity
ratios, so will not be forced to sell as mortgage rates rise.
At the State budget level, California remains on financially solid ground, with $37 billion in reserves
as of the end of 2022-23. During the past 10 years, the State has eliminated many of its budgetary
liabilities, created a rainy-day fund, and has focused on creating sustainable policies for managing
its spending.
Local Economic Outlook
As of September 2022, the East Bay’s unemployment rate was at 3%, compared to 3.7% in the
rest of California. However, the downside of these strong employment numbers have been
inflationary pressures – according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, gasoline prices in the Bay
Area have increased by over $1.12 in the last twelve months, electricity costs are 86% higher
than the national average, and natural gas prices are 39% above the national average. Moreover,
the Bay Area saw the largest drop in median income of any big US metro area according to the
latest census figures, related primarily to high-income households moving to other parts of the
country. Household income in the five-county San Francisco Bay Area dropped by -4.6% in the
past year.
Real property assessed valuation is the key driver of the Park District’s economic health. Home
prices in the East Bay, which increased significantly in the first two quarters of this year are starting
to decrease. According to Compass Realty, as of September 2022, the approximate year-over-
year change in median house sale price in Alameda County had decreased by -3% while the
decrease in Contra Costa County was -1%. These decreases are expected to continue in the
coming year, as mortgage rates rise and the the overheated economy cools down. However,
most real estate experts believe that this will be a market correction rather than a crash.
District Impacts
Overall, the Park District’s economic outlook appears solid for the coming year. The Park District’s
2023 Budget addresses the need for additional resources to provide consistent services to our
park visitors. Therefore, a significant staffing expansion is proposed. These additional personnel
costs can be funded with the projected growth in property taxes in fiscal year 2022-23. Beacon
Economics’ August “baseline” projection forecasts that average assessed value (AV) in the East
Bay will increase by 5% in 2023-24, but will be only 2.7% in 2024-25. Their range of low to high
forecast for AV will be between 1.5% to 8.4% in the coming year.
Additionally, charges for services, the second most important source of Park District revenues, is
expected to remain steady in 2023.
Lastly, the Park District has significant operating and capital funds which continue to provide
stable revenue sources as noted below:
• Special assessments, special taxes, and community facilities district fees, which are not
impacted by the real estate market, provide for operating and project funding in specific
areas of the Park District;
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 15
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
• The Park District continues to pursue the capital objectives of the Measure WW $500
million voter-approved debt authorization. In 2022, $60 million of new Measure WW bonds
were issued. Spend-down of these bond funds is not impacted by the economy;
• The remaining proceeds from the 2012 Promissory Notes are earmarked for specific
projects for facility replacement and renovation;
• The Park District will continue to seek federal and state grant funding for capital projects
• Additional funding for the Major Infrastructure Renovation and Replacement Fund
provides the resources required to fund current major facility, paving and infrastructure
needs.
Revenue Assumptions and Methodology
Park District uses the firm Beacon Economics to formally forecast the assessed value of
properties in Alameda and Contra Costa counties. Projections of General Fund property tax
revenue are based upon these expert forecasts.
The Park District has determined that budgeting investment earnings during this volatile interest
rate environment provides more challenge than benefit. For this reason this revenue source will
not be budgeted. However, the Park District is actively managing cash and investments to
maximize returns within the parameters of the Park District Investment Policy.
In 2023, the Park District will be conducting a fee study and examining its cost recovery model
with the expectation that an updated fee schedule can be brought to the Board for 2024.Fees and
charges are examined each year and adjustments are recommended to the Board of Directors
as needed. Administrative and document fees are generally set to recover costs. Park user fees
are set at levels consistent with rates charged by other public agency providers in the Bay
Area. Fees for out-of-District groups receiving programs, and most specialized program offerings
with limited community benefit, have fees set at levels that allow for full cost recovery.
Other District revenue sources are examined closely in relationship to historical actual receipts,
and budgeted revenues were adjusted as appropriate.
Long-term Strategies to Address Long-term Concerns:
Organization Wide Goals and Policies
The Park District’s long-term strategies are articulated in its Vision and Mission Statements, the
2013 Master Plan, Measure AA and WW documents, and Measure FF text. Preservation,
acquisition, development, maintenance, and stewardship of natural and cultural resources and
East Bay land, plus public access and educational opportunities for the citizens of the East Bay,
are the long-term goals of the District.
Policies for attaining these goals include guidance on resource management, public access,
interpretation and recreation, public service, human and financial resources, and the annual
budget. The Master Plan financial resource policies include the following:
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 16
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
FR1: The District’s financial planning and management decisions will be based
on information and professional projections supporting a transparent system of
policies and procedures. The delivery of long-term financial sustainability,
solvency and resiliency will be the objectives of this process.
FR2: The District will continue the practice of developing annual performance
management goals, and budgeting to achieve the outcomes. These budgets
will incorporate annual performance targets linked to the District’s long-term
planning goals. Goals will be transparent, outcomes will be measured and
results will be communicated to stakeholders.
FR3: The District is committed to the responsible stewardship of public funds
and will operate in accordance with the best practices in the field of accounting
and budgeting, and will also maintain a strong system of internal controls to
ensure the security of all District assets. The annual external unqualified audit
opinion of the District’s financial records will be used to verify its fulfillment of
this commitment.
FR4: The District will continue the acquisition and development program and
will issue bonds as permitted under law, and as may prove advantageous or
necessary within the intent and authority of the District’s programs. Where
economically advantageous, the District may borrow to make major capital
equipment or fixed asset purchases. The District may borrow funds on a short-
term basis against anticipated revenue to fund annual operations.
FR5: Leases of District assets may be negotiated to enhance park activities
or value and to maximize revenue to the District. Revenues generated from
leases will, at minimum, offset the direct and indirect administration costs of
the lease and are expected to provide additional revenue to the General Fund.
FR6: The District will continue administering the current benefit assessment
districts and related zones of benefit, which support local open space and
trail improvements. The District will consider establishing additional special
assessment districts in support of local open space or recreational facilities
when these areas are congruent with Master Plan objectives.
FR7: The District will coordinate with and/or provide services to other
agencies when the activities are related to the District’s mission service
agreements will include provision for payments to the District sufficient to
support the direct and indirect cost of providing such services.
FR8: The District will seek opportunities to augment, and act to protect, any and
all diversified, equitable, long-term funding sources that support the strategic
goals described in this Master Plan.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 17
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The Park District has historically demonstrated sound fiscal management, administering its
financial resources responsibly and conservatively. Focusing on the future, the District’s fiscal
administration must also be strategic and outcome oriented, providing prudent stewardship of
District resources and taxpayer funds. Additionally, the District has specific fiscal policies
approved by the Board of Directors, which are the basis for management decisions. Those
policies include: General Fund Reserve (Unassigned) Fund Balance, District Investment Policy,
EBRPD Retirement Plan Investment Policy, Fraud Prevention, Debt, Capital Assets, Internal
Control, Auditing, and Balanced Budget policies.
Long-Term Projections to Inform Operating and Capital Strategies
Not updated for Proposed Budget. As p
art of the Park District’s annual operating budget, a five-
year projection of estimated revenue and expenditures is conducted.
For rev
enue projections, current revenue is used as the baseline, and projected future resources
trends are analyzed and projected from this baseline. For major resources -- such as property
tax and interest revenue -- expert opinions and historical evidence are used to support a five-year
projection. Other smaller revenue sources, such as those arising from assessments and leases,
are projected based upon existing contracts which can be determined for the next five to ten
years. Charges for services revenue fluctuates annually, and this revenue is highly susceptible
to the weather; thus, historical trends are used to forecast based on the ten-year average
increase.
Projections of the District’s five-year expenditure needs are completed using the baseline 2022
budget and projected forward based on specific data for each line item. For example, personnel
costs use known agreements with the District’s bargaining groups, and also incorporate macro-
economic trends and historical evidence. Expert recommendations are utilized to determine
funding requirements that will address the District’s long-term liabilities for pension costs, retiree
health care, and infrastructure. Trends and external information are examined to determine cost
trends for items not within the District’s control, such as inflation, pension and health benefit costs.
The District takes steps to proactively stabilize certain costs when it is possible, by setting aside
additional funds for pension contributions, major equipment replacement, election costs, major
infrastructure repair, and wildfire hazard reduction.
Additionally, the District’s new parkland and facility opening schedule, called the Pipeline, tracks
upcoming operating requirements, including staffing increases required from the completion of
capital projects and acquisitions.
The District five-year projections examine the most likely, as well as possible “best-case” and
“worst-case” scenarios, utilizing the extremes in revenue according to the annual forecast
prepared for the Park District by Beacon Economics.
The following are the specific assumptions used for the “baseline” Five-Year Revenue &
Expenditure forecast.
Assumptions used for revenue projections include:
1. Property Tax increases based upon the mid-line annual forecast for the District’s
property taxes, as prepared by Beacon Economics. The forecast shows property tax
reaching 6.7% by 2023 before dropping back to a 5.3% rate in 2026. These increases
are in line with growth rates experienced in recent years, although below the 7.4%
growth experienced in 2015.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 18
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW
2. Fees, charges, and other miscellaneous revenue in 2022 are projected to increase back
to the 2020 budgeted amount, and then increase by 3.4% annually beginning in 2023,
based on the 5-year trend prior to the pandemic.
3. Rents and leases revenue is projected to increase by 5.2% annually beginning in 2023,
based on the October Bay Area CPI-W (Consumer Price Index for Urban Workers) as
produced by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
4. Investment revenue is projected to remain at near recession levels for the next two
years, before the slow increase in rates begins to increase earnings again in 2024-
2026.
5. Transfers into the General Fund are projected to be consistent with the current year
budget, including expected use of resources from the Park District’s Pension Trust.
Assumptions used for expenditure projections include:
1. Personnel costs are the most significant costs in the General Fund. Current employee
MOU agreements are used for the forecast, including cost of living increases from the
current AFSCME MOU. When MOU’s are not available, certain assumptions must be
used to estimate cost growth. This model uses a 3 percent CPI projection for years
2024 -2026.
2. The cost of estimated “Pipeline positions” are added based on new parks and facilities
being opened to the public in future years. These costs are included in personnel costs.
3. Benefit costs, including medical and retirement, are forecast to increase between 4.7 –
5.7% annually, based on projections from the Park District’s actuaries.
4. Supplies & Service costs are forecast to increase by 5.2% annually, based on the
October CPI-W rates.
5. Intra-District Charges, including for the Major Infrastructure Renovation and
Replacement (MIRR) Fund is projected to continue at current levels with annual
increases based on the October CPI-W rate. Almost $10 million is budgeted to the MIRR
fund to achieve the desired Pavement Condition Index (PCI) and Facilities Condition
Index (FCI).
6. Transfers-out include mandatory set-asides and Board directives such as debt service
payments, and ADA facility improvements:
a. Debt service and inter-agency payments are projected to continue as per existing
debt covenants and agreements, as well as expected new debt service
requirements for improvements to the Peralta Oaks North facility beginning in
2023.
b. The Fuels Management Program is funded annually, with $1.2 million in 2022
and an increase of $100,000 annually.
c. The District has committed $500,000 annually to ADA improvements throughout
the Park District.
d. Environmental remediation for lands that require assessment and clean-up such
as the former Chabot Gun Club site.
e. Safety improvements such as annual needs for Black Diamond Mines are
currently funded at $130,000.
f. Funding to support capital projects, such as some staffing and support to projects
near completion.
g. Transfers to the Pension Trust of between $1 million and $500,000 and each
year, per actuarial recommendation.

Proj
ects and Programs
The District updates its five-year Project and Program Budget annually. This five-year plan
designates funding for land acquisition, construction, major maintenance of facilities, and other
capital projects. Additionally, certain multi-year projects and programs that do not involve capital
construction or acquisition are included in the Project and Program Budget. The District’s second
budget volume, 2022 Adopted Project and Program Budget - Five Year Expenditure Plan contains
information on these projects.
Performance Management
The 2023 budget continues the use of performance measures, which began over ten years ago
in 2011. Five years ago, the District aligned Key Performance Indicators and Key Performance
Objectives with eight overall District-Wide Performance Goals, which come from the Park
District’s Mission Statement and Master Plan.
The District’s quest for continual improvement of performance measures emphasizes
accountability for use of resources and resulting outcomes; provide transparency between the
activity of each department and their relationship to the District’s stated goals; communicate
targeted achievements; utilize strategic planning required by the statement of future targets; and
eventually allocate resources. Implementation of performance measures is a multi-year process
which the District continues to refine and pursue.
Distinguished Budget Award
The Park District was awarded the Government Finance Officers Association’s Distinguished
Budget Presentation for the prior year, 2022 Operating, Projects and Program Budget. The District
has received this award annually since 2005. This award represents a significant achievement by
the District and reflects the commitment of the Board and staff to meeting the highest principles

of governmental budgeting, including the enhanced understanding of the District’s budget by the
average reader.
Concluding Comments
The District’s ability to serve our growing population and manage our increasing natural resources
and lands will require careful planning and projection of long-term financial conditions. Although
staff has worked diligently to estimate 2023 revenues and expenditures, external events may
affect actual results. Throughout 2023, management will monitor economic conditions and report
to the Board of Directors and the public any significant changes that could require the District to
revise its budget.

BUDGET OVERVIEW
The District’s Fund Structure
The District’s accounting system and budget are organized and operated on a “fund basis.” A
fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity used to record all financial transactions related
to the specific purpose for which the fund was created. Several different funds are utilized to
account for the District’s financial resources.
In the District’s Operating Budget, all funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of
accounting. However, in the District’s Annual Comprehensive Annual Report (ACFR), the
government-wide statements are presented using the full accrual basis of accounting, as is
prescribed by the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The Balance Sheet and the
Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances financial statements are
presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting, consistent with this budget document.
The proprietary funds (internal service funds), on the other hand, are presented in the ACFR on
full accrual basis of accounting in the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Revenues,
Expense and Changes in Net Assets, and the Statement of Cash Flow in the financial statements,
in contrast to the presentation in the budget document.
Additionally, not all funds are subject to annual appropriation. For example, the District OPEB
Trust and the District’s single employer EBRPD Retirement Plan Trust are not included in this
document because they contain neither assets nor liabilities of the District. These funds are
included in the District’s ACFR, in the fiduciary fund section, in compliance with GASB.
For presentation purposes, the District uses fund groupings to summarize budget data in various
schedules in the budget. The General Fund and Special Revenues Funds groups are considered
“operating funds” by the District. The General Fund, the Debt Service Fund and the Project Fund
are all major funds under GASB 34. The Special Revenue and Permanent funds are non-major
funds. The groupings, and content of each grouping, are as follows:
Fund Group
Fund Number and Name
General Fund
101 – General Fund
Special Revenue Funds
220 – Two County LLD

e budget also includes conservative
estimates for statutory and residual payments from Redevelopment

single-family residential unit, and $8.28 per year for multi-family units.
The purpose of the voter-approved Measure is to provide funding for
maintenance and operations in some of the District's oldest and
most-used parks.
The 2023 budgeted revenue of $3.3 million is on par with the prior
year.
4 Assessments

and equipment
replacement.

Operations Division operating appropriations increased 14%. The primary driver of this increase
is the addition of over 25 FTEs, including upgrading 9-month positions to full-time. A new Unit
Manager position is proposed to facilitate the transition to a geographically based Park Operations
Department. Also a Major Maintenance Unit will oversee facilities, paving and the ADA program.
Additional funding was added for hazardous tree removal, and fleet replacement costs. Project
appropriations in 2023 include funds for air quality improvement projects, and restroom
installations.
The Public Affairs Division’s operating budget increased by 6%, including a new Archives position,
funding to continue improvements to the website, and to lease new office space. A $400,000
project appropriation will be used to improve the interpretive experience at Ardenwood Visitor
Center.
Public Safety Division operating expenditures increased by 6% compared to the prior year,
including the addition of a Police Sergeant Police Officer, and Fire Lieutenant. Increased project
funding for Public Safety is primarily related to upgrades to communications equipment.
Non-departmental operating expenditures increased from the prior year, related to new project
appropriations requiring transfers in 2023. The budgeted contribution to the Pension Trust in 2023
is $0.5 million.

2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 59
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW GENERAL FUND
Actual property tax receipts have continued to increase over prior years. This growth can be
attributed to the growing real estate market values in both Alameda and Contra Costa counties,
including home sales and property improvements. In 2022-23, properties that were not
reassessed due to changing ownership were assessed the maximum 2.0% increase as per the
State of California’s Board of Equalization.
Charges for Services
This category of revenues has experienced more variability, sometimes related to weather,
temporary facility closures for repairs, and even staffing limitations. This is the second largest
revenue source for the General Fund, representing 5.3% of total revenues. The 2023 budgeted
revenue is $10.8 million, or 4.4% more than the prior year budget, primarily due to the expectation
of revenue to be received for the Dumbarton Quarry Campground by the Bay, which will be open
for the full year in 2023. Other fees include:
• parking fees ($2.6 million),
• fishing and camping fees ($2.0 million),
• swimming and other programming ($1.0 million),
• concession fees ($1.0 million),
• public safety fees ($1.3 million), and
• facility rentals ($1.6 million).
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 60
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW GENERAL FUND
The District reviews and updates its park usage and administrative fees annually. Administrative
fees are generally set to recover costs. Park user fees are set at levels consistent with rates
charged by other public agency providers in the Bay Area. Out-of-District groups receiving
programs, and most specialized program offerings with limited community benefit, may have full
cost recovery fees. Changes in the District Fee Schedule are reviewed and adopted annually by
the Board of Directors. They are available on the District’s website.
Investment Earnings
In 2023, the Park District will not budget revenues from interest earnings. This has been a volatile
revenue source, and difficult to project. However, the Park District will continue to invest pooled
cash resources that exceed current funding requirements. The Park District follows the
Investment Policy adopted annually by the Board of Directors. The District’s policy is to invest
public funds in a prudent manner, providing the highest yield with the maximum security of
principal invested, while also meeting daily cash flow requirements. Additionally, the District
conforms to all applicable federal, state and local statutes governing the investment of public
funds.
Property Usage
Revenue of $2.4.million is expected to be collected from property usage (communication site
agreements, grazing agreements, District residences and other usages of District property). This
is approximately $300,000 less than the prior year, primarily reflecting the cessation of revenues
received from Dumbarton Quarry tipping fees.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
B - 61
East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW GENERAL FUND
Inter-Agency A
greements
The revenue budgeted in 2023 for Grants and Inter-agency agreements is $603,500, which is
$58,000 higher than 2022, related to an agreement with the Contra Costa Water District to
maintain the swim lagoon at Contra Loma.
Miscellaneous
Miscellaneous revenue of $3.3 million is essentially unchanged from the prior year. This year the
Park District will again draw down $2 million from its Pension Trust, as planned, in order to
reimburse CalPERS pension costs.
Transfers In
Budgeted transfers into the General Fund total $6,000. This represents the annual funding for
wildlife management transferred from several permanent funds.
General Fund Appropriation Highlights
General Fund operating expenditures for 2023 (excluding transfers out) total $190.5 million for all
uses, including personnel services, supplies, services, intra-District charges, inter-agency
payments and equipment. Total General Fund expenses are projected to increase by 7.3% in
2023, due to increased personnel costs, services costs, expenditures for intra-District charges,
and supply budget increases. The budget for capital expenditures in 2023 is almost $0.7 million
below 2022, due to a change in budgeting for equipment purchases to capture these costs in the
Equipment Fund, which is an internal service fund.
Personnel Costs
Personnel costs are the District’s largest General Fund expenditure category, representing 57%
of all General Fund expenditures. This category includes funding for wages and wage-related
benefits. Overall, this category increased .5% from the prior year, including implementation of a
4% vacancy rate, in order to better reflect attrition and positions that remain unfilled for part of the
year. The overall increase to personnel costs includes an additional 40.3 General Fund funded
full-time equivalent positions (FTEs), increases to wages in accordance with employee
agreements, and pension cost increases, including a $0.5 million allocation to the irrevocable
Pension Trust.

Fund 220 – Two County Regional Trails Landscape & Lighting District
In 1993 the District formed the Alameda County/Contra Costa County Regional Trails
Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District (referred to as the “Two County LLD”) to help
augment District funding for the operation, maintenance and servicing of trails. The assessment
district area includes all of Alameda County, except Murray Township, and all of Contra Costa
County, except Liberty Union High School District.
This LLD was formed prior to the passage of Proposition 218, and thus is considered a
“grandfathered assessment.” But as required by Proposition 218, 78.5% of voters in Alameda
and Contra Costa Counties reaffirmed the continuation of the Two County LLD in 1996. The
assessment is $5.44 per equivalent dwelling unit per year and $2.72 per multi-family unit.
Assessment revenue does not cover the cost of all regional trail maintenance. The balance of
appropriations related to trail maintenance is included in the General Fund budget.
Fund 221 – East Contra Costa County Landscape & Lighting District
The eastern portion of Contra Costa County, as defined by the boundaries of the Liberty Union
High School District, was annexed by the District in 1981. In 1991 the District formed the East
Contra Costa County Landscape & Lighting Assessment District No. 1 (referred to as the “East

Fund 552 - Workers’ Compensation Fund
This fund provides for the risk financing activity related to workers’ compensation. It accounts for
claims, administrative costs, insurance premiums, staffing as needed to temporarily replace
injured workers, and personnel costs related to the administration of this fund. Estimated payroll
charges of $4.1 million will be collected during 2023 to fund this activity. The workers’
compensation rate charged via payroll will be 3.5%. Actual revenue may vary from the budgeted
amount depending on actual wages paid.
Beginning in 2012, the Board of Directors committed $2 million of General Fund unassigned fund
balance for workers’ compensation claim contingency, to be used in the event of an unusually
large claim. This allows for a reasonable annual payroll charge, while providing assurance of
adequate funding in the event of an extraordinary occurrence.
Fund 553 – Major Infrastructure Renovation and Replacement Fund
This fund, formed in 2012, was created to fund major infrastructure repair, renovation or
replacement of District facilities, utilities, transportation systems, structures, etc.

East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
The Park District worked with consultants VFA, to create an Asset Management Inventory. The
program provides a review of the status of current District facilities and provides replacement
estimates and suggested timelines. This facility assessment program provides cost estimates and
recommend amounts for future funding of renovation and replacement. To date, 100% of Park
District facilities have been assessed using VFA software with an overall facility condition
assessment (FCI) of 67 out of 100. In 2023, the budget includes $10.0 million in internal service
charges to fund this program, as recommended by the Board policy.
Fund 554 – Major Equipment Replacement Fund
This fund accounts for the maintenance and replacement of all equipment items, including park
vehicles, mowers and weed-abatement equipment, police vehicles, fire suppression apparatus,
helicopters, heavy equipment and machinery. Annual purchases are based upon a long-term
schedule of equipment eligible for replacement. For large equipment, the cost of each piece of
equipment is amortized over its useful life and charged annually, in advance, to ensure adequate
resources to fund replacement equipment purchases as scheduled.
The $10.5 million in budgeted revenue is received from departments (mostly from the Operations
and Public Safety Divisions) via internal service charges. The corresponding appropriation in the
General Fund is a component of intra-district charges. Details of 2023 planned major equipment
replacements are as follows:

East Bay Regional Park District
BUDGET OVERVIEW PERMANENT FUNDS
The Park District is the recipient of permanent endowments from third parties related to their
federal and state mitigation obligations corresponding to land use/development activities.
Additionally, non-wasting endowments may be received in connection with the acceptance of a
real property donation. When the initial funds received are non-expendable, meaning that they
are legally restricted to the extent that only earnings, and not principal, can be used to
permanently manage mitigation properties and restoration projects, the funds are recorded in a
Permanent Fund. Interest earnings are budgeted at the beginning of the year and are periodically
transferred out to the operating or project funds for expenditure.
Permanent Funds Year-by-Year C

Fund 610 – Black Diamond-Fredrickson Open Space
In 2004 the District received an $180,000 endowment from Black Diamond Estates, the interest
from which is to be used for the long-term maintenance of the open space dedicated by the Black
Diamond Estates project in Antioch.

LEGAL DIVISION GENERAL COUNSEL
LEGAL DIVISION
The Legal Division manages District-wide legal matters, risk management, safety, workers’
compensation, and insurance programs. The Legal Division renders legal advice for the District;
prepares or reviews contracts and other legal agreements; manages and monitors all claims and
lawsuits; and helps manage costs and potential liabilities through proactive risk management and
safety programs. The Legal Division also renders advice regarding emergent safety issues, such
as the COVID-19 pandemic, and related federal, state and local regulations. These activities and
programs promote the preservation of parklands and safe public access to recreation while
protecting employees and assuring the fiscal health of the District.
*Additional 3.45 FTE temporary workers compensation backfill positions
GENERAL COUNSEL’S OFFICE
The General Counsel provides legal advice to the Board of Directors, General Manager, Deputy
General Managers, and Assistant General Managers. The General Counsel supervises and
manages all legal issues that affect the District.
In 2022, highlights of General Counsel accomplishments include hiring an Assistant General
Counsel who has experience in labor and employment law. The General Counsel’s Office advised
on compliance with rapidly changing executive orders, federal and state laws, regulations and
guidance, and county health orders relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. The General Counsel’s
Office advises on implementing new family and sick leave laws and provided guidance for
returning employees to worksites in compliance with Cal/OSHA and applicable health orders and
developing and implementing the Park District’s COVID-19 vaccination policy. Other
accomplishments from 2022 include drafting and securing enactment of legislation providing
expanded authority for park districts to enforce against encroachments onto park land,
overhauling the Park District’s safety programs and Safety Manual, implementing remote worksite
safety inspections, providing legal support for the 2020 census redistricting of the District’s
existing wards, providing legal support for the opening of Dumbarton Quarry Campground, and
successfully negotiating a disposition agreement for the Borel property.
The General Counsel’s Office also managed an active litigation caseload that included a
settlement that secured the property rights and $1 million in funding to build a long-planned trail
connection; prepared or reviewed numerous land and multi-agency agreements; reviewed over
600 contracts for services; and responded to numerous complex Public Records Act requests.

LEGAL DIVISION GENERAL COUNSEL
In 2023, the Legal Department will continue guiding the Park District related to COVID-19
response and operations; provide continued legal support for all Park District divisions and
continue to defend the Park District against claims and lawsuits.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Risk Management Department protects the District's assets and limits exposure to liability by
identifying, assessing, prioritizing, and mitigating risks. Loss control is accomplished through the
implementation of safety programs, procedures, and training; pursuit of recoverable costs;
monitoring of insurance compliance; maintaining a comprehensive insurance program; and
management of reported claims. Like the General Counsel’s Office, the Risk Management
Department has played a key role in responding to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2022, the Risk Management Department’s activities continued to be dominated by COVID-19
and the District adapting to shifting public health orders and exposure guidance, implementing
critical Cal/OSHA safety updates, and addressing employee safety concerns across the District.
The Risk Department has led an effort to inspect all District work sites for COVID-19 compliance
in accordance with the Park District’s COVID-19 Prevention Program, reinvigorate the charge of
the joint labor-management Central Safety Committee and District-wide safety tours, conduct risk
and safety trainings for employees, and partner with the Human Resources (HR) Division on the
transition of the industrial accommodations process to HR.
In 2023, the Risk Management Department intends to, along with the Human Resources Division,
continue work on the implementation of an online safety training suite that establishes required
safety trainings for all classifications, implement an updated Safety Manual including a refreshed
Injury & Illness Prevention Program, and additional safety programs for District employees.

PARK OPERATIONS SHORELINE UNIT
SHORELINE UNIT SERVICE DESCRIPTION & BUDGET
The Shoreline Unit strives to maintain parks to the highest standard by setting expectations and
following through with staff. Coordinating equipment, materials, and resources encourages
sharing of knowledge and experience, which results in greater efficiency and safe, well maintained
facilities. The Shoreline Unit seeks to ensure satisfied park visitors through outstanding customer
service in all aspects of daily operation. Current information is provided to park visitors via
employee contacts, information panels, and brochures. Staff monitors operating agreements with
California State Parks, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Waste Management, cities, counties and
agencies that encompass the parks, and both commercial and private park neighbors.
The Shoreline Unit management team participates in BCDC’s Adapting to Rising Tides project to
learn and give input on the impacts of future sea-level rise. Staff trains with other agencies twice
annually to maintain proficiency in oil spill boom deployment. They also participate in oil spill drills
sponsored by the California Department of Fish & Wildlife Office of Spill Prevention and Response
(OSPR), the United States Coast Guard, and refineries that are located near our parks. Staff is
proud of the many miles of Bay Trail maintained by the unit. Shoreline parks are important to the
Bay Water Trail and we continually seek to add sites on the District’s shoreline to the Trail. Staff
works to improve greening and recycling efforts for park visitors and staff. The Park Supervisors
collaborate with other District departments on projects involving cultural resources, water quality,
wildlife protection, habitat enhancements, volunteer opportunities, and trails.

East Bay Regional Park District
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
Basis of Budgeting
Budgeting for governmental funds (General Fund, special revenue funds, project funds and debt
service funds) is based on a current financial resource measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they become measurable and
available (received within 60 days of year-end) to finance expenditures of the current period.
Expenditures are recorded when the related liability is incurred, except principal and interest
payments on general long-term debt, which are recognized when due. Permanent funds are
also budgeted on the modified accrual basis. This is the same basis of accounting as used in
the fund financial statements.
Budgets for proprietary funds (internal service funds) are accounted for using the economic
resources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are
recognized in the period earned, and expenses are recognized in the period in which the
liabilities are incurred. Depreciation expense is not budgeted in the proprietary funds.
Fiduciary funds, including pension type trust funds, are not budgeted by the District.
Budget Process
The District’s budget is a vital tool for establishing public policy, maintaining control over the
management of resources, and implementing fiscal plans. Almost every decision, activity and
program is expressed within the context of the budget.
Budget Calendar Cycle
Budget planning begins with Board workshops held January through June, which address
District priorities, capital finance, and capital, land acquisitions and trail projects. At the
workshops, the Board of Directors and staff discuss the priorities for these projects for the
upcoming budget, including the 5-year Capital Improvement Plan.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
D - 2
East Bay Regional Park District
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
Throughout the year, the public is invited to comment on the District’s long and short term plans,
including the budget, via public board meetings held on the first and third Tuesday of each
month. The Board Finance, Board Operations and Board Legislative sub-committees also offer
monthly opportunities for public comment. A schedule of all public hearings is posted on the
District website and at District headquarters. In addition, the public can contact District staff to
provide input and feedback.
Initial budget allocations utilize the base budget approach, in which all divisions are allocated
the same percentage of resources as in the prior year’s base budget. Additional requests for
resources are discussed and adjustments made for one time or on-going increases or
decreases. Personnel costs are calculated based upon funded positions, and updated salary
and benefit rates. The number of funded positions may be less than the number of approved
positions for a particular budget, depending on resources available.
Additionally, divisions may submit budget requests for additional appropriations. Departmental
budget requests are submitted to the General Manager by early September. They are then
discussed, prioritized and recommended for approval by the General Manager (GM), Deputy
General Manager (DGM) and the Executive Team.
The proposed budget is formally presented to the Finance Committee and the Park Advisory
Committee, where staff seeks recommendation of approval by the Board of Directors. The
public is invited to two public hearings in December related to the budget, and comments are
taken into account before the proposed budget is approved by the Board of Directors at the
second public hearing in December. The approved budget becomes effective on January 1.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
Each quarter, the Finance Department presents to the Board Finance Committee a budget
status update with the budget to actual analysis report. The reports provide budget versus
actual comparisons in the current year and comparisons of like quarters from the prior year. An
analysis of significant variances is included for each major revenue and expenditure section of
the reports.
Budget Policy
The District’s Board of Directors has formally adopted the District’s Budget Policy, requiring that
the annual budget be balanced, with financial resources that equal or exceed uses, at the time
of adoption. Financial resources include intra-governmental charges, transfers in, use of
designated fund balance for designated purpose, and use of one-time resources for one time
appropriations; and uses include capital maintenance / replacement, intra-governmental
charges and transfers out.
Additionally, the District follows best practices in budgeting, which includes: assessment of
constituent needs, development of long range plans, adherence to budget preparation and
adoption procedures, monitoring of performance, and adjustment of budget as required. The
budget can be amended during the year, in accordance with the Board Operating Guidelines.
Board action is required to make budget adjustments in the following cases:
All increases in appropriations;
• Transfers that exceed $25,000 when the transfer is between funds or between
divisions;
• Transfer of Board contingency funds exceeding $5,000.
• Transfer of Board contingency funds in amounts of $5,000 or less requires a
recommendation from a Board member to the Board President, followed by
consensus
between the Board President and the General Manager. If the request is made by the
Board President, the GM will seek consensus from
the Vice President. The Clerk of the
Board initiates the budget adjustment, at the General Manager’s request, after all
approvals are received.
Budget adjustments that require the General Manager or his/her designee approval
include:
• Transfer up to $25,000 between funds or between divisions;
• Transfers that involve personnel cost and/or capital outlay budgets;
• Transfer of GM contingency funds of any amount.
Budget adjustments that require approval of the General Manager, his/her
designee, or the CFO / Assistant General Manager for Finance & Management
Services:
• Transfers between the Capital Project Fund and Other-Than-Asset (OTA) Projects
Fund to conform to capital accounting requirements, provided that the action does not
change the total funding, original purpose, or the scope of the project.
Budget adjustments that requi
re only the requesting division’s AGM approval include:
• A transfer of supplies or services appropriations in any amount within one division and
one fund.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
Investment Policy
The District’s Investment Policy is updated annually, and approved in accordance with State
law. The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance and direction for the prudent investment
of District funds, and to foster the creation of a systematic and controlled investment process.
The ultimate goal is to maximize the efficiency of the District’s cash management system, and to
enhance the economic status of the District, while protecting its pooled cash.
The District’s policy is to invest public funds in a prudent manner, providing the highest yield
with the maximum security of principal invested, while also meeting the daily cash flow
requirements of the District. Also, the District’s policy is to conform to all applicable federal,
state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.
The investment of funds is governed by the California Government Code Section 53601 et seq.,
and by California Government Code Section 53630 et seq. Funds on deposit in banks must be
federally insured or collateralized in accordance with the provisions of California Government
Code, Sections 53630 et seq.
Reserve Policy
During 2013 the Board of Directors adopted the General Fund Reserve (Unassigned) Fund
Balance Policy 6.0. The purpose of this policy is not only to determine an appropriate amount
for the unassigned fund balance (which is currently 32% of annual revenue), but also to define
and articulate the intent and uses of the reserve. The policy outlines factors used in determining
a prudent reserve amount, and requires that the CFO review and adjust percentage at least as
often as every five years. The CFO reviewed the policy during 2019 and presented to the
Finance Committee at their May meeting with no changes recommended.
Additionally, the Board of Directors and management has committed or assigned, fund balance
in the General Fund, the Project Funds and Special Revenue Funds as follows:
General Fund
• Election costs ($2.2 million), which will be used in the event elected officials
encounter challenges and the District is required to include Board of Director
positions on the election ballot. The fund balance eliminates the necessity of
appropriating operating funds during election years when the obligation of
election costs is not known until the candidate filing deadlines mid-way through
the budget cycle, thus stabilizing operating expenditures.
• Legal Contingency ($1 million), assigned to cover unanticipated, large legal
costs, thus freeing annual budget appropriations in excess of normal and usual
legal costs.
• Revenue take-away contingency (formerly referred to as economic uncertainty
10% of General Fund property tax revenue budget, approximately $16 million),
provides for financial stability against potential agency actions such as the
Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF) property tax shift.
2023 Proposed Operating Budget
D - 5
East Bay Regional Park District
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
• Workers’ compensation claim contingency ($2,000,000), committed to cover
unanticipated, large claims, in excess of normal, anticipated workers
compensation claim costs, increasing the funding level of the self-insured
program to the “conservative” level.
• Budgeted First Quarter Expenditures (approximately $12.7 million), restricted
and/or assigned to cover first quarter expenditures. The District receives 50% of
property tax revenue (the major General Fund revenue source) in December of
the preceding year. The prior year revenue is required to cover the first quarter
of the succeeding year’s expenditures, as the second property tax payment is not
received until April. By putting constraints on the fund balance, it is evident that
these resources are not available for expenditure.
• Pension Trust (approximately $10.8 million), for future increased pension costs
related to the CalPERS Miscellaneous Plan.
Project Fund
• Fire fuel reduction grant match ($380,245) was originally (1992) funded through FEMA
reimbursement for 1991 fire disaster and accounted for in special revenue fund. It was
transferred to project fund and is intended as resources to fund matching requirements
of future fire fuel reduction grants. The Board’s commitment was affirmed in 2012.
• Land acquisition and development committed fund balance (currently $7.2 million) was
originally recorded in 1980 District financial statement. The original amount was $1.3
million, which is adjusted annually for revenue and expenditures tracked as “District-
Committed Land Acquisition” funding (DCLA). The Board’s commitment was affirmed in
2012.
• As of December 2021, $20.3 million is committed to cover the costs of unfinished
projects whose budgets were previously approved via board action.
Mitigation Fund
• Funds ($1.2 million) received from specific developers, committed for mitigation at
specific locations including revenue from: Vasco Caves/Northwind, Waterbird/Chevron,
Brushy Peak/Republic Service.
Coyote Hills-Dumbart
on Quarry
• Revenue received from “tipping fees” ($733,000) is committed for the construction the
Dumbarton Quarry campground project.
Debt Policy
The District adopted a Debt Policy in 2017 as required by State law, and in order to protect the
District’s sound financial position. The Debt Policy describes purposes for which debt proceeds
may be used, the types of debt that may be issued, the relationship of the District’s debt to its
capital improvement program, policy goals related to debt, and internal controls to ensure that
proceeds are directed to the intended use.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FISCAL POLICIES
Additionally, the District has entered into bond covenants that obligate the District to appropriate
funds for debt service, provide secondary market disclosure, and report the balances of
outstanding debt in its audited financial statements.
The District is empowered and is obligated to levy ad valorem taxes, without limitation as to rate
or amount upon certain property subject to taxation, within the District for the payment of
interest and principal of the Measure WW bonds. The District’s credit ratings for its General
Obligation Bonds are “Aaa” from Moody’s Investor Service and “AAA” from Standard & Poor’s.
Its credit rating for its Promissory Notes is Aa1.
Transfers
Transfers are included in the budget to account for the reallocation of resources from one fund
to another. Transfers in are included in “Other Resources” and transfers out are included in
“Other Uses” in the preceding budget schedules. Note that the project fund column includes
transfers into the project funds and out of the debt proceeds funds, all of which are included in
the project fund column. Detail of transfers included in this budget can be found in “Budget
Transfers” at the end of Section B of this document.
Fiscal Policy Review
The Park District is constantly updating and reviewing its Financial Policies & Procedures. In
this past fiscal year, two new Policies were added: a policy on Appropriating Funds for
Acquisition Projects, and a Policy on the Major Infrastructure Renovation and Replacement
Fund. In 2019 the Park District also reviewed its existing policies on Environmental Purchasing,
and the Reserve Policy, but did not make any changes to those policies.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION DEBT AND APPROPRIATIONS LIMITS
Legal Debt Limitations
The Public Resources Code Section 5568 specifies the debt limits of the District. According to
this section, the District may, for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, or completing any
improvement or improvements authorized, or for the purpose of acquiring any land or other
property necessary or useful therefore, the Board of Directors may incur an indebtedness not to
exceed 15% of the assessed valuation of the real and personal property situated in the District.
Public Resources Code Section 5544.2 allows for the District to issue Promissory Notes as
unconditional obligations of the District, payable out of general fund revenues, but limited to the
amount of anticipated tax revenues for the next five-year period.
The District may issue bonds for the indebtedness under and in full compliance with the
provisions of Article 1 (commencing with Section 43600) of Chapter 4 of Division 4 of Title 4 of
the Government Code. The provisions of that chapter, as they may exist from time to time and
insofar as they may be applicable, shall govern all District bond issues, and the Board of
Directors, as the legislative branch of the District, is authorized to do all acts and things which
may be done by the legislative branch of cities, towns, and municipal corporations in the
incurring of indebtedness and the issuance and sale of bonds.
Appropriation Limit
The voters of California during a special election in 1979 approved Article XIII-B of the State of
California Constitution. This legislation, commonly referred to as either “Proposition 4” or the
“Gann Initiative,” restricts the total amount of appropriations allowed in any given fiscal year
from the “proceeds of taxes.” In 1980, the State Legislature added Section 9710 to the
Government Code which required the governing body of each local jurisdiction to establish, by
resolution, an appropriations limit for the following year. The appropriation limit for any fiscal
year was equal to the previous year limit, adjusted for population changes and the change in the
U.S. Consumer Price Index (or California per Capita Personal Income, if less). The necessary
statistical information is provided each year by the California Department of Finance.
In June 1990, the voters modified the original Article XIII-B (Proposition 4) with the passage of
Proposition 111 and its implementing legislation (Senate Bill 88). Beginning with the 1990-91
appropriations limit, an agency may choose annual adjustment factors. The adjustment factors
include the growth in the California Per Capita Income or the growth in non-residential assessed
valuation due to construction within the jurisdiction and population growth within the County.
Under Proposition 4, if an agency ends the fiscal year having more proceeds of taxes than the
limit allows, it must return the excess to the taxpayers within two years (either by reducing taxes
levied or fees charged).
Calculation of Limitation
The appropriation limit of $474,334,925 far exceeds the applicable District appropriations
subject to limit of $171,874,364 in the 2022 budget. The General Fund is the only fund with
general property tax. The applicable District appropriations are calculated based upon property
tax revenue, plus allocated interest revenue, less capital outlay and unfunded mandate
exclusions. The Gann Limit is calculated with data from the proposed budget.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION VOLUNTEER INFORMATION
Livermore Area Recreation and Park District
In the fall of 1992, the District annexed the eastern portion of Alameda County. This 276-square
mile annexation allowed the District to expand and provide regional parks, open space and trail
services throughout all of Alameda County. The annexation was negotiated through a liaison
committee consisting of Livermore Area Recreation and Park District (LARPD) and District
Board members. LARPD and the District worked together and determined that the most
effective, appropriate means for providing a proper level of parks, recreation and open space
facilities and services to the people of Murray Township was for each agency to take primary
responsibility for facilities most in alignment with its core mission.
This l
iaison resulted in an ongoing cooperative effort by both agencies. The District assumed
responsibility for acquisition and development of future regional parks, open space areas and
trails within Murray Township and for related maintenance and operations. LARPD continued to
assume primary responsibility for existing LARPD facilities and programs as well as for all future
Murray Township community and local parks and recreation facilities, and related maintenance
and operations. The Liaison Committee meets regularly to address matters of concern with
respect to implementation of the cooperative and complementary functions of the two districts.
Since 1993, the District has received a share of Murray Township property tax revenues as
General Fund revenue to support this program. This financial approach has not and will not
increase the tax burden of Murray Township residents, and represents a 3% allocation of the
assessed valuation that exceeds the Base Year. In 2022 the District intends to continue
operating several major parks and facilities within and directly serving Murray Township,
including Del Valle, Camp Arroyo at Del Valle, Shadow Cliffs and Brushy Peak. The District
budgets operating funding for trail grading and paving, maintenance and repairs, mowing,
sanitation, police and fire services, lifeguards, utilities, signage, brochures and similar park
expenses. Operating budgets for Del Valle, Camp Arroyo, Brushy Peak and Shadow Cliffs
Recreation area currently exceed $4 million per year.
Start
ing from the initial joint acquisition of the first parcel of Brushy Peak in the early 1990’s,
both agencies have successfully pursued the opening of Brushy Peak, North of Livermore. In
2006, following ten years of effort, the District completed the acquisition of over 1,500 acres at a
cost of $5 million, completed restoration, planning, construction of parking, fencing, trail and
roadway improvements and opened Brushy Peak to the public. In 2009, continued cooperation
and joint funding has resulted in the acquisition of the final intervening parcel of land between
Camp Arroyo and Veteran’s Park; which will preserve and expand lands adjacent to Sycamore
Grove and allow construction of one of the last remaining gaps in the Shadow Cliffs to Del Valle
Regional Trail in the coming years. Both agencies are now cooperating on the final roadway
under-crossing and trail construction necessary to complete this important trail link.
The 2022 budge
t includes a continuing annual appropriation of $200,000 in the General Fund
for payment to LARPD to provide continued assistance with priority projects, and to provide
operating support for our cooperative interests in the area.
