RECOMMENDATION(S) CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER On June 4, 2024 and June 6, 2024 acting as the Board of Supervisors, San Diego County Flood Control District Board of Directors, San Diego County In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority Board of Directors, Board of Directors of the San Diego County Sanitation District, Board of Directors of the San Diego County Fire Protection District and the County Successor Agency, hold the public hearings for the Chief Administrative Officer Recommended Operational Plan for Fiscal Years 2024-25 & 2025-26. EQUITY IMPACT STATEMENT The County of San Diego promotes a government culture of equity, belonging, and racial justice. We serve the needs of communities with diverse groups including Black, Indigenous, people of Color, LGBTQIA+, people with disabilities, people of low‐income, the young, the older, immigrants, refugees and communities that have historically faced inequality and inequity. The Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Recommended Operational Plan is intended to allocate resources to help address inequities in County programs and services in response to community input, data analysis identifying disparities, and meaningful assessment of outcome indicators. In 2021, a new Budget Equity Assessment Tool was implemented to help County departments prioritize services and resource allocations with equity in mind. This tool requires all County departments to annually identify equity components to evaluate budget changes that impact the department’s capacity to deliver services and/or support the goals of the department. The questions are designed to ensure the County applies an equity lens in the development of the budget. SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT STATEMENT The County of San Diego is building a sustainable future for all. The County’s Strategic Plan guides County activities to ensure sustainability as it relates to the region’s economy, climate, environment, and communities. The County strives to strengthen communities in all interactions by actively pursuing legislative policies and collaborating with stakeholders to enhance services that allow residents to transition to self-sufficiency to increase economic sustainability and Thursday, June 6, 2024 3

reduce poverty. County departments have contributed to this by implementing individual sustainability plans that reflect organizational priorities while informing financial planning and strategic decision-making. This ongoing effort also assists each department with increasing overall sustainability of internal operations. These collective efforts strengthen communities, ensure accountability, and protect public resources by aligning available resources through services and initiatives. The proposed budgetary plans presented in the Fiscal Years 2024-26 CAO Recommended Operational Plan support the County of San Diego’s Strategic Initiative of Sustainability to align the County’s available resources with services while maintaining fiscal stability and ensuring long-term solvency. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommendation to hold public hearings. The Chief Administrative Officer Recommended Operational Plan for Fiscal Years 2024-25 and 2025-26 totals $8.48 billion for Fiscal Year 2024-25 and $8.05 billion for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The funding sources are program revenues, General Purpose Revenues and available prior year fund balances. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT N/A Thursday, June 6, 2024 4
