FEES AND REVISE THE FEE SCHEDULES FOR THE POLICE
DEPARTMENT, LIBRARY, PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT, FIRE
DEPARTMENT, PLANNING, BUILDING AND TRANSPORTATION
DEPARTMENT, AND THE RENT PROGRAM
WHEREAS, the Alameda Municipal Code and the California Government Code provide that the City Council shall set fees reasonable to recover the cost of providing various services by resolution; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, at the August 27, 1991 Special City Council meeting directed City staff to amend the Alameda Municipal Code to reflect that City fees shall be set by City Council Resolution; and
WHEREAS, the City periodically amends Resolution No. 12191 and updates its Master Fee Schedule to account for various cost increases relating to municipal programs, services and activities; and
WHEREAS, the City has experienced and anticipates continuing increases in the costs to operate and maintain municipal government citywide; and
WHEREAS, the City staff in the Planning, Building, and Transportation Department hired a consultant to perform a fee study to analyze and evaluate the revenue requirements to fund ongoing municipal services, programs and activities and the fee structure necessary to proportionately allocate the costs of providing these government services and programs; and
WHEREAS, the June 3, 2025, Staff Report including Exhibits 1 -4 (the “Staff Report”) provided by staff in support of the amendments to Resolution No. 12191 includes proposed fees and charges, and documentation supporting the estimated and reasonable costs for continuing to provide the various government services; and
WHEREAS, the investigations conducted by staff reflected in the Staff Report show that existing revenues are and will be insufficient to cover the current and projected costs of operating and maintaining identified government activities, service and programs; and
WHEREAS, the fee modifications and additions proposed by staff, and the facts and analysis in support thereof, are identified in the Staff Report; and
WHEREAS, the Staff Report shows that revenues derived from the proposed fees and charges will not exceed the funds required to provide the related government activities, services and programs of the government; and
WHEREAS, the Staff Report shows that the amounts of the proposed fees and charges will not exceed the proportional cost of service provided or benefit attributable to each fee payer; and
WHEREAS, the Staff Report shows that the proposed fees and charges for a product, benefit or service are imposed for a specific government product, benefit or service provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and does not exceed the reasonable costs to the City of providing the product, benefit or service; and
WHEREAS, State law authorizes local governments to charge fees for services based on the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged; and
WHEREAS, the City Council is authorized to increase fees annually by the percentage increase in consumer and/or construction price indices for the San Francisco Bay Area.

Per Ordinance 1928, as referenced by Resolution 12191 and Resolution 14027, City fees are subject to administrative adjustments not greater than 5% annually. The February 2025 CPI is 2.7%. Therefore, except where noted, all fees have been administratively revised for a CPI rate increase of 2.7% allowed by ordinance.
Planning, Building, and Transportation fees were increased as a result of a fee study conducted on May 21, 2024.
The fee increases that were part of this fee study will be effective August 1, 2024.
Fire Department fees that currently do not achieve a 100% cost recovery were increased by 9.12% (excluding EMS fees and new construction fees). The 9.12% includes the allowed 2.7% Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase and a
6.42% cost recovery catch-up increase.
The CA Construction Cost Index (CCCI) increase rate in April 2025 was calculated at 5.1%.
The Development Impact Fees (DIF) were adjusted by the calculated Construction Cost Index in April 2025 by 5%.
Affordable Housing Fees for Use Types were increased by the Construction Cost Index in April 2025 by 5%.
