City of Culver City, California
City Council Agenda Item Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council discuss the City Council Work Programs for the
2008-09 and 2009-10 Budget and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION:
The adopted budget includes Work Programs for each operating division of the City,
including the City Council. These Work Programs are intended to serve as a
blueprint for resource allocation and objectives for the upcoming fiscal year(s). As
staff begins preparation of the Fiscal Year 2008-09 and 2009-10 proposed budgets,
the Work Programs that were approved for 2008-09 need to be re-examined, and
those for 2009-10 need to be established. Below are the Work Programs approved
by the City Council for 2008-09:
1. Implement, within fiscal ability, the community-wide facilities and
infrastructure needs assessment.
2. Continue the use of a short- and long-term fiscal analysis for both the City
and Redevelopment Agency, involving the development of a long-term
financial plan, consistent with revenue and expenditure projections, and
including cost containment initiatives.
3. Review and update the implementation of the City Charter.

environment by diminishing negative environmental effects (water, energy,
fuel, etc.) of both city activities and new construction, and expanding current
recycling efforts.

storm water quality, the Exposition Light Rail Project Phases I and II, the I-10
Robertson Project and housing.

City Council provide suggestions for 2009-10 Work Programs and to reach
consensus on five to seven items.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
There is no fiscal impact from this discussion item. However, the work items agreed
upon by the City Council may involve the need for allocation of additional funds to
accomplish. Based upon the City Council’s discussion this evening, staff would
recommend any associated budgetary changes as part of the proposed budgets for
Fiscal Year 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 for the City Council’s consideration later in
the budget process.
MOTION:
That the City Council:
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.
