Dolinka Group was initially retained to audit specific annual annuities for San Diego Unified School District. We were pleased with the thoroughness of their report, but more importantly, the depth of their research and experience with California education funding allowed us to use their study for other purposes as well. Ultimately, their study was instrumental in helping us identify out of the box solutions to provide much needed general fund relief. Dolinka Group has always brought a high level of professionalism to their work and I appreciate their confidentiality in dealing with the matters related to our School District.
Andra M. Donovan, Esq.
Deputy General Counsel
The work completed by Dolinka Group can be described as thorough, precise, and actionable. My observations from the beginning of working with Dolinka Group are that you and your staff are intelligent, well educated, and fun to work with! I am always pleased by the clarity of their deliverables and their consideration of our political environment when providing recommendations. As a community college district that serves a large metropolitan area (San Diego), I appreciate their knowledge of the community and advice on handling the interactions with the City and County. Most importantly, Dolinka Group has assisted us in understanding our redevelopment revenues collected, especially as it relates to State reporting requirements.

Controller
I am very happy with the work Dolinka Group has done to increase our redevelopment revenue! One RDA paid us overdue money last year, and now another has agreed to correct their calculations and increase our payments. Thanks to Dolinka Group, who examined the information (and taught us what to expect), we were able conclude that our payments were accurate. Working with Dolinka Group has been a great investment in our school district!

Dolinka Group provides a comprehensive consulting experience for School Districts. They have helped YCJUSD navigate the complex world of RDAs, developer fees, and CFDs:
- They provided the district expert advice with regards to RDA agreements and verification of pass through payments,
- Fee study justifications
- Their financial advisory services have been instrumental in coaching us through bond issuances and helping us develop a relationship with the development community.
- They also provide expert advice, monitoring of the numerous CFDs. Most recently, they helped restructure the CFD and issuance of bond.
Due to their breadth of expertise Dolinka Group has done a fantastic job aligning my facilities needs with my funding options.
George VelardeAssistant Superintendent, Business Services
Dolinka Group’s knowledgeable and articulate consultants help me follow changing redevelopment legislation and the fiscal impacts on my District. They help simplify complex issues. Their audit services helped us update our reporting procedures and identify payment discrepancies in our redevelopment revenues. Their consultants helped facilitate communication with the redevelopment agencies and the California Community College Chancellor's Office to address those identified discrepancies. Their hands-on approach and consistent communication make me confident that they are helping to maximize our District’s redevelopment revenues.
