Thank you, members of council and public.
The item before you is the second of three meetings on the proposed budget.
The first one, as you know, was May 5th, and the second one, Mayor, as you just noted, will be on, or the third one will be on June 9th.
At the May 5th study session, staff provided a detailed presentation of highlights for the proposed capital budget and operating budget.
The City Council provided and asked a number of questions.
At this study session, staff will focus the majority of time on responses to those questions.
You also have received in your packet detailed written responses to 30 questions that were asked at the last meeting.
It's my pleasure to state that the proposed budget resolves our structural deficit.
It allocates funds to continue with the implementation of Measure I. It sets aside funds for future infrastructure investments, which we know has been a significant Council priority.
It also proposes new positions to align with growth and City Council priorities.
Also worth noting that Santa Clara's unique mix of housing, commercial office, R&D, and data centers provides a solid revenue base such that it allows us to invest in needed enhancements.
It also allows us to fund our personnel costs
and the City Council will know that we had just about every bargaining group open last year, and we were able to resolve, frankly, all but one of those contracts that we are still negotiating.
But those have provided predictable and stable labor costs that have helped us resolve our structural deficit.
With that, I'll turn this presentation over to Director Ken Lee, Finance Director for the City.
Welcome, Ken.
Good evening, Honorable Mayor, City Council.
Thank you, City Manager Grogan.
Appreciate the opportunity for round two of the budget study sessions.
I know I have time to make up, so I will talk quickly.
