Gentlemen:
Submitted. herewith is the fourth annual budget of the City
of Rosemead covering fiscal year 1963-64. The budget document
contains a summarization of anticipated revenue and expendi-
tures and detailed supporting data for all municipal functions.
The total expenditures of the "General Purpose Funds"; which'
include the General Fund, the in Lieu Fund,-and the Traffic
Safety Fund, exceed the anticipated revenue by approximately
$43,000_. This deficit is primarily due to the accelerated local
street improvement progrs►. The City's share of the program
includes'th~ cost of (1) survey, engineering design, staking..
and inspect ah for which $16,000 has been budgeted, and (2)
concrete removal and replacement (due to widening), concrete
cross-gutters, and asphalt pave-out or resurfacing for which
$70,00 -has been budgeted. There will once again be an anti-'
cipated reserve, however, of approximately $164,000 in the
General Fund.'
The remaining funds are the "Street Construction and Maintenance
Funds" which include the Gas Tax Fund, The County Aid to Cities
Fund, and the County Highways Through Cities.Fund which are
principally for the specific purpose of major city street con-
struction.
The revenue estimates used are those of the appropriate State
or County agency dispursing such funds. The sales tax revenue
estimate should be conservative since the State Board of Equal-
ization Research and Statistics Unit forecast a 5% increase in
retail sales over the mount received by the City in the 1962-63
fiscal yeah.

Changes in the State Highway User Tax law, if passed by the
State Legislature, could greatly relieve the general fund
deficit since 80% rather than 40% of the existing gas ta::
revenue could be used for street maintenance purposes.
Sincere appreciation is extended to all County officials and
administrative staff members for their fine cooperation and
able assistance in the preparation of this budget.
Sincerely yours,

- BUDGET MESSAGE -
The City of Rosemead continued it's efforts during the past
fiscal year to develop a sound municipal organization so that
it might meet the challenges of growth and development that
it is currently experiencing. Much has been accomplished
through the efforts or the City government, in cooperation
with many civic-spirited citizens of Rosemead, to effect a
sound basis of planning and programming of essential services
and needs.
The 1963-64 budget reflects many of these plans by transplant-
ing them into financial terms for action during the fiscal year.
While the City's population has grown by an estimated 1,100
residents since 1960, the quality of its physical and economic
growth has also increased considerably.
The City of Rosemead has in its youthful past, and will con-
tinue in the foreseeable future, to operate its government
without the need of a municipal property tax. As one of the
unique "Contract" cities in California, Rosemead has avoided
the expense of establishing City departments to provide its
essential municipal services by contracting with the County of
Los Angeles or private contractors to perform such services.
The City is thereby taking advantage of the flexibility afford-
ed by such a plan as well as the experience, know-how, and
large-scale operation of the established County departments.
The City of Rosemead selects the desired level of service and
pays the actual cost involved in the performance of the service.
d b
i
y
ne
It should be noted that local control is strictly mainta
the City through its elected Council. Yet its citizens enjoy
the economies and excellent quality of service that results
from the area-wide performance of services which can be provid-
ed without the restriction of municipal boundary lines. Much
of the duplication of manpower and equipment inherent in the
'
operation of a municipality in a metropolitan area is thereby
avoided.
'
Planning Accomplishments
Perhaps the major accomplishment during the past fiscal year
'
was the completion of the General Plan. Many hours of concen-
trated study on the plan has resulted in a comprehensive guide
for the City to follow in its future physical development.
Closely associated with the General Plan is the zoning ordinance
which was recently completed by the Planning Commission to pro-
t
vide the necessary law
Plan. Both were major
years of study by the
Street Improvements
to enforce the provisions of the General
projects of the City, taking several
Plannin❑ Commission to complete.
The City embarked on a greatly stepped up street improvement
program during the past fiscal year. The Walnut Grove Avenue
project was commenced with the construction of the bridge over
the Rubio Wash south of Valley Blvd. Construction should be
completed on the bridge in August of 1963. This budget contains
funds for the second pease of the project, the street recon-
struction of Walnut Grove Avenue between Valley Blvd. and the
San Bernardino Freeway, which should also be completed by the
end of August. The total cost of the bridge and street includ-
ing acquisition of right-of-way, survey, design, construction
engineering, etc. will be approximately $200,000.
1 In addition, plans and specifications are nearly completed on
the Mission Drive project (between Ivar and Valley Blvd.),
and acquisition of right-of-way is well underway.
' The most active program in the City has been the improvement
of local streets under Chapter 27 of the 1911 Act. Over 22,000
lineal feet of curb and gutter, 23,000 square feet of sidewalk
' and driveway apron, and 188,000 square feet of asphaltic con-
crete street pavement were installed during the 1962-63 fiscal
year. This represents 20 separate projects with from i to
I
I I
property owner petitions involved in each project. The City
now has in hand 14 additional projects which involve almost
the same quantities that could not be completed during this
1762-63 fiscal year. The City's annual bid procedure has
proven to be quite successful in helping to gain citizen ac-
ceptance to the program.
Industrial Development
The past year has seen the completion of three major new in-
dustrial buildings and others are scheduled for next year.
Sound planning, the absence of a city property tax, and a
stable city government have greatly assisted in the attraction
of new industry to the City. The Rosemead Economic Resources
Survey has been of considerable use and the new "industrial
brochure" which is currently being printed should also prove
to be of considerable assistance to the City in its effort to
fully develop available industrial sites.
t
d'
F
„osomea
s
uture
The City of Rosemead has operated successfully for four years
'
without a property tax and during this time has maintained a
substantial reserve. In addition the City has elected to re-
move two district tax, burdens - the Road Maintenance District
and the Sewer Maintenance District from the Rosemead property
owner tax bills. This in terms of cash savings amounts to
ten cents per one hundred dollars of assessed valuation. City
revenues have continued to increase and progress on local
street improvements indicate that expenditures for this purpose
will decrease substantially within the ne:;:t several years.
" ihile many problems remain, such as the need for growth in our
business district, additional off-street parking, and city
'
beautification, Rosemead citizens can be proud of their past
accomplishments and look without hesitation toward the future.

' CITY ADMINISTRATOR
:=account No. 1100
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTIOP: The City Administrator's position
was esta rs e y an ordinance adopted by the City
' Council. The City Administrator is responsible for see-
ing that policies of the City Council are carried out and
laws enforced. As administrative head of the city govern-
ment he hires all employees, coordinates and directs city
,activities, prepares reports and recommendations to the
City Council and the Commissions, and represents the City
' at Conferences and meetings of administrative officials
from other agencies.
' PERSONNEL:
.11 Administrative Assistant
This account provides for an Administrative:
' Assistant who under the direction of the City
Administrator performs work in city planning,
zoning, public works, and traffic safety, makes
special studies and does other work as required.
' in addition he serves as executive secretary to
the Planning and Traffic Commissions.
.11 Administrative Secretary
This position is responsible for all secretarial
duties in the office of the City Administrator
' and in addition performs certain bookkeeping
functions, and acts as recording secretary to
the Planning Commission.
' OPERATIONS:
.51 Travel and Meeting Expense
This provides for attendance at the: league of
' California Cities Conference, California Contract
Cities Conference, and the City Manager's Conr'e r-
ence in addition to other necessary travel and
' meeting expenses.
CAPITAL OUTLAY:
.64 Motor Vehicles
This item would provide for an automobile to be
I
used by the Administrative Office in the conduct-
ing of day-to-day business and certain trip ac-
tivity. Presently, employees are required to use
privately owned vehicles for every phase of city
business and this use includes excessive wear and
tear necessitated by use: at various construction
sites. In addition, an automobile with City iden-
1 tification in evidence could certainly add to
the City's public relations by its use in in-
spection and supervision on street projects
and in the day-to-day official uses in and around
the City. Including the cost of operation, the
vehicle would result in cutting the travel and
'
meeting amount by $300.00 or more.
The radio aquipment is being requested after a
considerable study of alternatives available to
'
us. The Administrative Offiecr and the Assistant
are often in the field on public works projects,
'
citizen inquiries, survey work, etc. and find a
uent need for information and contact with
fre
q
City Hall. At the present time we must return
to City Hall, get the information and return to
'
the location. This action takes valuable time
that can be utilized on other work obligations
of an already overburdened staff schedule.

Account No. 3000

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: This account provides for all of
the Law En orcement activities as contracted for by the
'
City of Rosemead. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's De-
partment provides 24 hour general law enforcement patrols,
two 56 hour per week traffic enforcement units, a motor-
cycle patrol for parking law enforcement. Care of prisoners
and crossing guards at various school crossings throughout
the City are also provided by the department.
1
OPERATIONS:
'
.01 General Law Enforcement
The new adjusted rate for law enforcement as re-
commended by the County Grand Jury and approved
by the Board of Supervisors calls for a $27,100
'
increase in police costs.
'
.02 Prisoner Care
The prisoner care account was lower in 1962-63
due to a change in State law which provided a
State Penal Code section for the arrest of plain
drunks on public property. This places the res-
ponsibility for prisoner care as a result of
such arrests on the County. The City will con-
tinue to pay for the care of prisoners resulting
from arrests under City ordinances such as drunk
on private property in public view or drunk on
private property to the nuisance of other persons.
Our City, as well as most other cities in the
County, contract with the County for the housing
of such prisoners at the daily rate of $6.10 for
male and $10.01 for female prisoners.
.03 Crossing Guard Service
The City now has crossing guards at Marshall and
Walnut Grove Ave, at Wells St. and Walnut Grove
Ave., and Marshall and Temple City Blvd. for 42
hours per day. The guards will be on duty for
179 school days in the 1963-64 fiscal year.

.05 Other Traffic Enforcement
This account provides for the added traffic en-

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: This account provides for the cost
o building construction regulation which is provided
'
through the Building and Safety Division of the Los Angeles
County Engineers. Revenues from permits and inspection
fees are designed to off-set the above expenditures, al-
though there should be more revenues than expenditures dur-
ing the next fiscal year due to the recent permit fee in-
crease. Building activity in Rosemead should continue to
increase somewhat above previous years. This high level
'
of building activity should remain stable since it is anti-
cipated that an increased amount of manufacturing and com-
mercial construction will occur in the City during the next
'
fiscal year.

ENGINEERING AND ADMINISTRATION
Account No. 4000
'
ACTIVITY DESCRIPT10i,!: Los Angeles County provides most of
the City's engineering services. Private Engineers are
utilized for annexation maps, legal descriptions, special
District maps, and other miscellaneous mapping and engineer-
ing services. The Los Angeles County Road Department pro-
vides the bulk of engineering at the present time due to
the intensive activity in the construction of curbs and
gutters. The City's policy of encouraging such construction
is that the City pays for the cost of survey, engineering,
design, and inspection in conjunction with street improve-
ments.
'
OPERATIONS:
.01 L.A.County Engineers
This account provides for expenditures for ser-
'
vices of the Los Angeles County Engineer for the
preparation and checking of petitions, sewer
plans, house numbering map maintenance, drainage
studies and investigations and miscellaneous
special mapping services.
'
.02 Private Engineers
This account provides for the cost of preparing
annexation maps and legal descriptions, special
district maps, and other miscellaneous engineer-
'
ing and mapping services.
.03 L.A.County Road Department
It is expected that the present stepped up engin-
eering activity for construction of curbs and
gutters wi l l decrease somewhat during the ne;ct
'
fiscal year. It is exceedingly difficult to an-
ticipate the amount of expenditures for this item,
since the amount of such expenditures will depend
on citizen requests for curb and gutter projects,
'
building activity, and whether the street has been
previously designed.
'
.04 Major Street Engineering - Mission Drive
Advanced engineering projects are budgeted under
this account. This account provides for the com-
pletion of plans and specifications on Mission
Drive between Ivar Avenue and Valley Boulevard
and other miscellaneous work.
.05 Permit Issuance
This accounts only purpose is to provide a
' procedure for record purposes, since all expenses
will be completely and exactly defrayed by permit
fees. The City receives the fee for curbs and
gutters, sidewalks, driveway approaches, etc.
and is b;6'-.J for this amount monthly by the County
Road Department.
.06 Major City Streets - Walnut Grove Bridge
This account will provide for the cost of day to
day inspection and special engineering involved
' in the construction of the Walnut Grove Avenue
bridge.
.07 Major City Streets - Walnut Grove & Marshall Street
This account provides for construction engineer-
ing and inspection of the Walnut Grove Avenue
street project.
.44 Assessment Roll
An assessment roll is purchased each year from
the County Assessors office and has proven to be
exceedingly helpful in the drafting of petitions
for curb and gutter improvements, aswell as many
planning matters. This item is included in the
Engineering & Administration section of the budget
to more closely associate the classification of
the expenditure with its use.

STREET CONSTRUCTION`!
Account No. 5000
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Three major City street construc-
tion projects in a ition to paveout and miscellaneous
t
construction items have been budgeted for the 1963-64
fiscal year.
By August of the 163-64 fiscal year, it is expected
that the Walnut Grove bridge as well as the street con-
struction for Walnut Grove and Marshall Street be
completed. The total cost of the bridge phase of the
'
project has been shared with the County through a
$50,000 allocation from the County Highways Through Cities
Fund.
'
A request has been made to the County of Los Angeles
for a $50,000 allocation from the Highways Through Cities
Fund in the 1963-64 fiscal year for street construction
'
on Walnut Grove and $25,000 for Mission Drive. The
amount the Board of Supervisors will allocate is unknown
'
at this time, but is expected to be a minimum of $45,000.
OPERATIONS:
.02 Walnut Grove & Marshall Improvement
The Walnut Grove and Marshall construction ac-
count as shown in the preliminary budget will
provide funds to complete this important project
'
in 1963-64.
'
.03 Paveouts and Misc-.llaneous Construction
This account is for paveout and includes money
for miscellaneous construction items such as
necessary removal and reconstruction of exist-
ing curbs and gutters due to widening, construc-
tion of cross-gutters, etc. The amount of money
required is very difficult to estimate as can be
seen by the over-expenditure during the current
'
fiscal year. The proposed amount is based on the
current fiscal years expenditures. It is recom-
mended that petitions for new curb and gutter
projects that are turned in after July 1
1963
,
,
be held until the next fiscal year for construc-
tion since the City now has on hand projects which
'
involve nearly the same footage of curb and gutter
as installed during the current fiscal year.
.05 Mission Drive Improvement

STREET CLEANING
Account No. 5200
'
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: The City or Rosemead contracts
with the County or Los Angeles for street sweeper service.
'
The budgeted amount provides for each street (curbed or
not) as well as alleys, to be swept approximately once
every two weeks. In addition, money is included for
sweeper pick-up, hauling to the dump, and dump charges.
A sweeper schedule has been prepared and is altered only
during inclement weather. Approximately $1,000 was re-
duced from the requested amount since it appeared the
sweeping operation would be sufficient on the lesser amount
during the current year. The number of street sweeping
days proved to be considerably higher this fiscal year
'
since very few of thc: rainy days were week days. There-
fore, the $10,000 was inadequate to keep to the fixed
schedule, and sweeping days were reduced as much as pos-
sible during the past 3 months.

' MAINTENANCE OF STREET TREES AND PARKWAYS
Account No. 5400
'
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: The Los ling~l.:s County Depart-
ment o Parks an Recreation, acting under contract
with the City of Rosemead, maintains approximately
2,500 parkway trees in the City. In addition to the
routine maintenance, which includes trimming, topping,
spraying, and routine removals, the City has had quite:
a number of trees to remove due to street widening and
curb and gutter installations.
'
The tree removal program costs the City an average of
$25.78 per tree for removal on Newby, Steele, Glendon
Way, Lawrence and Ivar.
The tree trimming portion of the budget was reduced
due to recent removals. Since the number of removals
due to curb and gutter projects and the major city
street projects will again be quite high, approximately
$3,000 is estimated to be used for this purpose.

' STREET LIGHTING
Account No. 5900
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: This account provides for all ex-
penses connected with the operation of the Rosemead City
Lighting District. This District is a separate legal
entity from the City with the City Council acting as the
district's governing body.
During the 1962-63 fiscal year improvements were made in
Zones III, IV, and V. In Zones III and IV all intersec-
tions will be lighted up to the recommended standards as
proposed by the City's Street Lighting Engineer and the
Southern California Edison Company. In Zone V, 60 new
4,000 lumen street lights, 31 of which mounted on steel
poles were installed.
The street lighting fund will again be operating in most
cases with a deficit due to the five year period allowed
for the district zones to repay the 50% construction cost
loaned from the City's general purpose funds. The asses-
sed valuations of the lighting district zones will not be
available until approximately August of 1963. Therefore,
it is not yet possible to determine the tax rate necessary
to finance the district. Revenue requirements however
are estimated as follows:

HEALTH SERVICES
!-Account No. 6000
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: This account provides for basic
health inspection services (which is a eneral fund
obligation of the County of Los Angeles , rodent control
and ambulance service costs.
OPERATIONS:
.01 Emergency Ambulance Service
The City contracts with the County of Los
Angeles for emergency ambulance service. The
ambulance company is required to make 3 attempts
to collect and then turns the accounts over to
the County. The ambulance company state their
experience has been that approximately 20% of
the accounts are uncollectable. On uncollect-
able accounts, the ambulance companies bill the
Department of Charities which in turn bills the
City. There were approximately 116 responses
averaging $11.50 each.
The City makes an additional effort to collect
ambulance costs by sending a letter to each per-
son listed as uncollectable on the bill to the
City. The letter informs the person that it is
their responsibility to pay for ambulance ser-
vices and that the amount is due immediately.
This practice has proved to be partially success-
ful, although we collect on only a small percent-
age of those billed. Of more significance, are
the number of corrections that we make in the
County bill where people notify the City they
have already paid their bill to the ambulance
company.
.02 Health Services
This account is for the $1.00 per month charge
which is levied against each city contracting with
the County for health services. It is used to pay
for the legislative responsibility of the Los An-
geles County Health Officer. All cities in Los
Angeles County except Long Beach, Vernon, Pasadena,
and Los Angeles City use the County Health Department.
.03 Rodent Control
These services are above the basic level of County
responsibility and therefore must be paid for by
the City. This account would provide for minor
problems which may occur.

RECREATION SERVICES
Account No. 8100
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: This account provides money for
the City to pay or the cost of personnel for the after-
school and vacation recreation program.
The Rosemead Elementary School District provides the
playground and school room facilities necessary for the
program and in addition provides the supplies and meter-
ials. The Rosemead Elementary School District has pro-
vided supervision of the operation since all of the ac-
tivities are upon their property and most of the employees
are full time employees of the school district.
It is recommended that a similar program be offered
during the 1963-64 fiscal year.
