Second Amendment to Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for Community Recreation with Anderson Union High School District, Cascade Union Elementary School District, and Happy Valley Union School District.

I RECOMMENDATION
The City Manager recommends that the City Council:

By motion, Approve the Proposed Second Amendment to the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for Community Recreation with Anderson Union High School District, Cascade Union Elementary School District, and Happy Valley Union School District, and Authorize the City Manager to sign the agreement.
] FISCAL IMPACT
None.

ITEM 6.4 PAGE1 7/18/2023
l DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In 1986 the City of Anderson (City) entered into a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for Community Recreation with Anderson Union High School, Cascade Union Elementary School District and Happy Valley Union Elementary School District (Schools). The purpose of this agreement was to establish a Recreation Commission and to promote community recreation.

The agreement has not been updated since 1986.
1986 Agreement:

Section 2 - provides for the parties to the agreement to coordinate and extend all recreational facilities.

Section 4 - states; "Each party shall carry public liability insurance in amounts not less than $250,000/$500,000 with an indorsement covering the program provided for herein."
Insurance requirements have continued to change over the years and all parties to this agreement find that the amount included in Section 4 does not meet with the requirements needed for today. Additionally, it would be beneficial to have a Joint Use Agreement so that separate use agreements don't need to be filled out every time we use each other's facilities.

Over the past couple of years there has been difficulty with obtaining the proper insurance certificates when providing a recreational activity due to the outdated limits listed in the 1986 agreement. The High School is recommending we enter into a Joint Use agreement that would supplement the original agreement by meeting the requirements of Section 2 and providing current insurance requirements noted in Section 4. However, our City Attorney recommends amending the original agreement and setting a five-year term so that the agreement is reviewed every five years making sure insurance requirements are up-to-date.

The proposed amendment attached would serve to provide current insurance requirements for both the City and Schools for a period of at least five years. Please note the $10,000,000 general liability clause for those facilities having swimming pools.

I RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission and Planning Consultant recommends that the City Council:

2. Open the public hearing and consider public testimony.

3. After closing the public hearing, consider approval of the proposed CEQA finding and consider approval of Ordinance No. _ (First Reading) for Rezone 23-01 and set for adoption on August 15, 2023 (Second Reading).

4. Direct City Clerk to read by title only.

I PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project applicant is requesting a Rezone of the project site from Highway Commercial (C2) which supports services to travelers, to General Commercial (Cl) to establish and operate a retail pet supply and animal rescue titled "Tails of Rescue in Kahoots" The project site is currently developed with an existing building containing two suites. One suite, 2,475- squarefeet, would be used to support the retail pet supply and the other suite, 1,665-square-feet, would be used to support the animal rescue. Rescue animals will be on-site only while the pet store is open for business. The project site has existing parking and landscaped area and all available utilities.

ITEM 7.0a PAGE1 7/18/2023

I ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed project, a Rezone has been determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the General Rule CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed rezone may have a significant effect on the environment. ! PROPOSED REZONE 23-01
The proposed amendment is to change the current Highway Commercial (C-2) zoning district to General Commercial (Cl). The proposed rezone would support the proposed development of a retail pet store. Uses of a retail business or services are permitted in C-1 districts; provided that all goods are displayed and sold and all services are performed within a completely enclosed building, except as otherwise permitted by the provisions of this section. AMC Section 17.18.020 specifically lists "Pet Shop" as a use permitted by right in the Cl district.

The current Highway Commercial (C2) Zone district is primarily oriented to service-related uses and similar uses offering service for tourists, highway travelers or visitors generally located near interchanges or through routes are permitted in C-2 districts. Those uses include auto parts and services, restaurants and cafes, sales and services for cars, RV's, boats, and manufactured homes, hotels and motels, and other similar uses which in the opinion of the Planning Commission are of a similar nature.

I CURRENT GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING
The project site is currently zoned Highway Commercial (C2), and the existing General Plan land use designation is Commercial (C) The site is surrounded by a variety of uses including lowdensity, single-family residences, vacant lands, and commercial businesses.

Surrounding land uses and zoning are as follows:

North: Vacant Land; Highway Commercial (C2) zoning district.

South: Maverik Fuel Station; Highway Commercial (C2) zoning district.

East: Single-family homes; Low-Density Residential (Rl) zoning district.

West: Vacant Land & Interstate 5; Highway Commercial (C2) zoning district

I SITE PLAN AND PROPOSED USE
The site plan and project description (See Attachment C) provided by the applicant indicate that the project site is developed with an existing building containing two suites. One suite, 2,475- square-feet, would be used to support the retail pet supply and the other suite, 1,665- squarefeet, would be used to support the animal rescue. Rescue animals will be on-site only while the pet store is open for business. The project site has existing parking and landscaped area and all available utilities.

I AGENCY COMMENTS AND PUBLIC NOTICE
Comments on the subject Rezone and proposed project were received from the City of Anderson A WPCP as an advisory notice that easy access to the private underground lift station on the property. The notice has been provided to the applicant and the current owner of the property.

ITEM 7.0a PAGE2 7/18/2023
A Memorandum was provided at the June 26 Planning Commission meeting including comments supporting rezone (RZ) 23-01 to establish the pet supply and dog rescue business "Tails of Rescue in Kahoots". Members of the public also attended the meeting for support.

A 10-day public hearing notice of the subject project was published in the Record-Searchlight and mailed notices were posted in accordance with noticing requirements provided in AMC Section 17.54.040 - Zoning Amendments. No public comments on the project have been received by the City Clerk at the time of this report.

I FINDINGS
Rezone:

The proposed Rezone from (C2) Highway Commercial to (Cl) General Commercial will not be detrimental or injurious to the general welfare of the city as the proposed Cl zone district is consistent with the current (C) Commercial General Plan and will not create a conflict with adjacent existing (C2) commercial uses or future uses. Other (Cl) zoned parcels are located in the near vicinity of the project site and the proposed use of the parcel will not conflict with the surrounding uses.

Environmental Determination:

Rezone has been determined to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section the General Rule CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed rezone may have a significant effect on the environment.

"Tails of Rescue In Kahoots" Is requesting rezonlns to allow for the approval of a retail pet supply store (Ka hoots} and an animal rescue (Tails of Rescue) at 2644 North Street In Anderson (APN 201-430-020-000). The existing bulldlng Is comprised of two suites. One suite would be used for the retall store and the other would be used for the rescue.

We have operated Kahoots pet supply store for nearly two years, In Shasta County, and carry a wide variety of pet food and pet supplies (treats, collars, leashes, clothln& flea preventative, etc.t. Our store Is open 6 days per week, generally from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The retall store carries a wide ranee of products from the most reasonably priced, to high end and specialty Items. Inventory Is continuously tailored to meet the needs of the customer base and community. The prices are competitive with, and typically lower than, the big box pet supply stores. As a small business, we are able to offer personal service and get to know our customers. In addition to our exlstf ns customer base, we will now be able to serve the Anderson community and travelers along Interstate s. In 2022, our sales reached $160,000 In a community of 3,000. With the move to Anderson, our sales are projected to triple over the next year. We look forward to brlnglns the tax revenue to the City of Anderson and being an Integral part of this community. Tails of Rescue In Kahoots Is a 401(c)(3) Of'lanlzatfon and all proceeds from the retail store support the medical and supply costs for the Tails of Rescue animals.

We have operated Tails of Rescue for 8 years In both Redding and Shasta County. There are normally 20-30 dogs In the rescue program and all are housed in foster homes. On a typical day, 6 dogs are on-site at the rescue. All others remain with the Ir foster families. The rescue supports muftlple county anfmal shelters In the north state by obtaining dogs from those shelters only. Owner relinquished pets are not accepted. The procedure for adoption ls to view the pets on the website; complete an adoption application; and If It appears to be a sood flt, a meet and greet appointment Is scheduled for the potential adopter. All of our rescue animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and mlcrochlpped prior to belna adopted. The doors to the rescue suite would remain locked during business hours and the public would not be permitted Inside. At the end of each day the pets are returned to their foster families and no pets would remain at the facility oveml&ht. Last year 284 of our adoptions were to out of town famllfes that travelled to pick up their pet. These famllles travel from all over California and surrounding states, and most stay oveml1ht, eat at restaurants, and purchase fuel locally.

Under a separate permit, a pted and tocked fence (that meets Design standardst would be constructed to enclose the back and side of the bulldins. This outdoor area would be used for dos play and exercise. The standard procedure for loading and unloading the pets is to unlock the pte, pull a vehlde Into the fenced yard, lock the gate, then load or unload the pets. This procedure ensures the safety of the animals and the public.

To date we have purchased the building, installed a new roof, and are currently remodeling the Interior.

Additional planned Improvements Include rehabilitating the parking lot, Installing an ADA access door, painting the exterior of the buildin& sprucing up the landscaping, and Installing signs. We are excited to revive this underutilized location and Invest In the City of Anderson and the community. ~your consideration,

Planning Department:

As the owner of the property located at 2644 North Street in Anderson, California, I support Mrs. Bulmer's Use Pennit application requesting rezoning of this location to allow operation of a retail pet supply and animal rescue. I also support any related future permit applications Mrs. Bulmer may submit in order to improve the building and property (fencing, signage, ADA access, an access door between the suites, etc).

I fully support Mrs. Bulmer's Use Pennit application for rezoning, and I would like to see the City of Anderson approve this application. While the statistics vary, multiple data sources indicate that 50 percent to 80 percent of Americans that own pets travel with them each year. The C2 category is intended for travelers and what better way to encourage them to stop in the City of Anderson than to have an easily accessible pet supply store adjacent to the freeway exit. It is also my understanding that the property next to mine may be developed into multiple hotels. Locating a pet supply store next to hotels that will likely allow pets, is a great convenience to those travelers. It is also the best way to keep the sales and tax revenue in the City of Anderson.

Public Hearing to consider adoption of a resolution relating to the adoption of a Fire Impact Fee for New Development within the City Limits of Anderson

I RECOMMENDATION
The Fire Chief and Anderson Fire Protection District recommends that the City Council:

1. Receive a Staff Report

2. Open the public hearing and consider public testimony.

3. After closing the public hearing, consider for approval a resolution adopting a new Fire Impact Fee for future development within the City of Anderson on behalf of the Anderson Fire Protection District and superseding any existing Fire Impact Fees.

I FISCAL IMPACT
This item will result in additional revenue for the Anderson Fire Protection District, not the City of Anderson.

ITEM 7.0b PAGE1 7/18/2023
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The Anderson Fire Protection District's ("AFPD") Board of Directors have adopted a resolution directing that new residential and commercial development fund new critical facilities, fire apparatus, and related fire equipment purchases to expand capacity and abilities impact fees in the AFPD's service area. Because Fire Protection Districts do not possess the authority under Government Code § 66000, known as the Mitigation Fee Act (Fee Act), to impose these fees on their own, they must coordinate with the City to establish these fees inside the City of Anderson.

AFPD is also requesting Shasta County take similar action for AFPD service area within the unincorporated area.

AFPD retained the SCI Consulting Group to prepare a Fire Impact Nexus Study ("Nexus Study").

Nexus studies establish the legal and policy basis for the imposition of new fire impact fees on new residential and nonresidential development within the fee areas. The fee's purpose is to fund the one-time costs to expand the Districts' facilities, apparatus, and equipment needed to maintain its existing level of service. The Nexus Study establishes that a reasonable relationship, linkage, or "nexus" exists between new development that occurs within the District and the need for fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment as a result of new development. Under the Mitigation Fee Act, impact fees cannot include costs attributable to existing deficiencies in public facilities. They cannot be used for personnel costs but may include the costs attributable to the increased demand for public facilities reasonably related to the development project in order to refurbish existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service.

The Nexus Study supports the fees reflected below:

Residential Development
Single Family Housing
Multi-Family Housing
Mobile Home
ADU (750 sq.ft. or greater)
ADU (less than 750 sq.ft.)
Nonresidential Development
Retail/Commercial
Office
Industrial

$1.09
$1.17
$0.93
$1.09
Exempt
Per Building Sg. Ft.
$0.81
$0.89
$0.65
As required under the Mitigation Fee Act, the AFPD held a duly noticed public hearing on May 9, 2023 wherein it formally requested the City of Anderson and County of Shasta approve the above Fire Impact Fees.

ITEM 7.0b PAGE2 7/18/2023

I CEQA COMPLIANCE
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") under Section 15273 because this action is not a "project" because the Resolution provides a mechanism for funding fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment but does not involve a commitment to any specific project for such purposes that may result in a potentially significant impact on the environment.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION
The Anderson Fire Protection District ("District") provides first-responder fire protection, rescue, and emergency medical services to the City of Anderson ("City") and two unincorporated areas of the County of Shasta ("Shasta"). Specifically, the District's services include fire prevention and suppression, emergency medical response, and public education. Since November 2002, the City and County have imposed fire impact fees on behalf of the District on new residential and nonresidential development within the District's service area. The fire impact fee funds the one-time cost of expanding the District's fire system to meet the impact of new development.

The legal and policy basis for imposing the District's current fire impact fee is supported by the District's Impact Fee Study, dated October 28, 2002, and amendment dated May 10, 2011, which was approved by the District Board of Directors on May 10, 2011, by Resolution No. 2011-01 and later adopted by the City Council and County Board of Supervisors on May 3, 2011, by Resolution No. 11-25 and by the County Board of Supervisors on June 28, 2011, by Ordinance No. 689.

This Fire Impact Fee Nexus Study ("Nexus Study") was prepared pursuant to the "Mitigation Fee Act," as found in California Government Code§ 66000 et seq (the "Act"). The purpose of this Nexus Study is to establish the legal and policy basis for imposing new fire impact fees ("fees") on new residential and nonresidential development within the District. The fee's purpose is to fund the one-time cost of expanding the District's facilities, apparatus, and equipment needed to maintain its existing level of service. No capacity exists to serve new development. If the District's fire system capacity is not increased to satisfy the additional demand, the quality and responsiveness of the District's fire protection and emergency response services will deteriorate.

For purposes of this Nexus Study, the term "facilities" or "fire system facilities" will refer to facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines and other vehicles), and equipment. The term "new development" will generally refer to the persons (residents and employees working in the District) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in which the persons live or work.

Under California law, the District does not have land-use authority to impose impact fees on development projects. Because the District serves the City of Anderson, the City Council and County Board of Supervisors must adopt the fire impact fee program on behalf of the

ANDERSON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023 SCIConsultlngGroup
PAGE2
District. The City and County currently impose a fire impact fee in the amount of $918.15 per dwelling unit and $0.73 per square foot of commercial area.

In order to impose such fees, this Nexus Study will demonstrate that a reasonable relationship or "nexus" exists between new development within the District and the need for fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment due to new development. More specifically, this Nexus Study will present findings in order to meet the procedural requirements of the Act, which are as follows:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee.

2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is funding public facilities, the facilities must be identified. Identifying the public facilities may be a broad class of projects1 or made by reference to a capital improvement plan, made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or made in other public documents.2

3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed ("benefit relationship").

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed ("impact or need relationship").

5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the facilities or portion of the facilities attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed ("rough proportional relationship").

Additionally, the Act specifies that the fee shall not fnclude costs attributable to existing deficiencies in public facilities but may include the costs attributable to the increased demand for public facilities reasonably related to the development project in order to refurbish existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service or achieve an adopted level of service that are consistent with the City and County General Plans.
1 According to Government Code § 66000{b) and validated by Homebuilders Association of Tulare/Kings Counties, Inc. v. City of Lemoore in 2010. 2 According to Gov'! Code Section 66001(a)(2).

ANDERSON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023 SCIConsultlngGroup

METHODOLOGY/ APPROACH
To determine the District's fire impact fee consistent with these substantive requirements, this Nexus Study utilizes a systemwide existing facility standard methodology. The facility standard methodology is a commonly used method for the calculation of fire impact fees. It was validated by the Homebuilders Association of Tulare/Kings Counties, Inc. v. City of Lemoore in 2010. Under this method, identification and use of an existing facility standard and the restricted uses of fee revenue ensure that new development will not fund any existing deficiencies as prohibited by the Act. Instead, only capital improvements and apparatus, vehicle, and equipment purchases that expand the District's fire system are allowable uses offee revenue. Likewise, the fee program will generate only enough revenue to proportionally expand the fire system to maintain the existing level of service.

The existing facility standard is based on the District's ratio of existing fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment to the existing service population.

Existing development refers to the persons (residents and employees working in the District) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in which the persons live or work. Existing development demand is based on the District service call data.

The District's existing fire system's value is determined using the replacement value of the District's existing inventory of fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment. These costs are then applied to seven land use categories in proportion to the need they create for fire protection and emergency response services.

The Act requires that in establishing a development impact fee program, the facilities funded by the fee must be identified. However, the Act provides flexibility regarding how that identification may be made. The fee program may identify a broad class of projects3 or made by reference to a capital improvement plan, made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or made in other public documents4• This fee program identifies facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines and other vehicles), and equipment as the broad classes that will be funded with the fee.

It is important to note that the level of development in the District does not directly influence the maximum fire impact fee determined by this Nexus Study. The fire impact fee is determined with an open-end approach based on the District's level of service standards rather than a definite facility plan and a definite level of future development. Therefore, if the 3 According to Government Code § 66000(b) and validated by Homebuilders Association of Tulare/Kings Counties, Inc. v. City of Lemoore in 2010. 4 According to Gov'! Code Section 66001 (a)(2).

actual level of development is significantly higher or lower rate than projected, no revision of the fire impact fee program would be necessary.

The Nexus Study also details the procedural requirements for approval of the Nexus Study and proposed fire impact fee program ("fee program") by the District Board of Directors and adoption by the City Council and County Board of Supervisors on behalf of the District. Also, the Act contains specific requirements for the annual administration of the fee program.

These statutory requirements and other important information regarding the imposition and collection of the fee are provided in the last sections of the Nexus Study.

SUMMARY OF GENERAL FINDINGS
The following general findings from the Nexus Study are presented:

1. The City and County, on behalf of the District, impose a fee of $918.15 per residential dwelling unit and $0.73 per square foot of nonresidential building area.

2. Fire impact fees are necessary to ensure that the District can adequately expand its fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment needed for the resident and employee growth and new structural area created by new development.

3. It is the objective of the District to maintain its existing level of service by establishing a fire impact fee to fund the cost of expanding the District's facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to new development.

4. Consistent with the Act's nexus requirement, this Nexus Study demonstrates a reasonable relationship between new development, the amount of the proposed fee, and facilities, apparatus, and equipment funded by the fee.

5. Fee revenue may only fund the costs of expanded facilities, apparatus purchases that expand the District's existing inventory and up to 6.9 percent of apparatus replacement costs, and fee program administrative costs.

6. Since only cities and counties have land-use authority to impose development impact fees as a condition of project approval, the District's proposed fee must be adopted by the City and County on behalf of the District.

7. The maximum fire impact fee determined by this Nexus Study is consistent with the City General Plan and County General Plan.

SUMMARY OF GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings presented in the Nexus Study, the following general recommendations are presented:

1. The District should establish a new fire impact fee to fairly allocate the costs of providing fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment to new development.

2. The District's new fire impact fee should be adopted and implemented in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Act (Government Code§ 66000 et al.).

3. Fee revenue should be used to fund only the cost of expanded facilities, apparatus, vehicles, and equipment to serve new development, as further detailed in Figure 13.

4. Proceeds from the new fire impact fee should be deposited into a separate fund account so that there will be no commingling of fees with other revenues or unexpended balances of the District's existing fire impact fee funds. Once the old existing fee program fund accounts have been spent, the fund accounts should be closed.

5. The District, City, and County should comply with the annual reporting requirements under Government Code§ 66006(b).

6. Following the fifth fiscal year after the first deposit of fee revenue and every five years thereafter, the District should comply with the reporting requirements under Government Code § 66001 (d).

7. The cost estimates presented in this Nexus Study are in January 2023 dollars. The fire impact fee should be adjusted automatically without further action by the District Board, the City Council, and the County Board of Supervisors on the first day of each fiscal year ·by the previous calendar percentage change in the Engineering News-Record Construction Cost Index or its successor publication.

8. In order to comply with the Act and recent court decisions, a fee credit must be given for demolished existing living or building areas as part of a new development project.

DETERMINATION OF EXISTING DEVELOPMENT
The District serves both residences and businesses throughout its service area. As such, the demand for the District's fire protection services and associated fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment is measured by its service population (residents or employees) and the structural area (i.e., living area or nonresidential building area) in which they live or work. This section will first determine the District's service population and structural area.

These figures, along with District service call data, will be used to establish an existing facility demand factor for the various residential and nonresidential land uses within the District, which in turn will be used to determine existing development's total facilities demand.

EXISTING SERVICE POPULATION AND STRUCTURAL AREA
The District provides first-responder fire protection, rescue, and emergency medical services to the unincorporated community of Anderson. A map of the District's boundaries is provided in Appendix A. As shown in Figure 2 below, the District currently serves an estimated resident population of 12,230 and protects approximately 5, 199 occupied and vacant dwelling units. These figures are based on the U.S. Census Bureau's 2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimate for the District's service area and a 4.9 percent vacancy rate, as reported by the California District of Finance.

The District also serves an estimated 4,783 workers and protects approximately 1.92 million square feet of nonresidential building area. The estimated number of workers in the District is based on an estimated jobs-to-housing ratio of 0.92. The estimated nonresidential structural area is calculated by multiplying the number of workers by 402 square feet of nonresidential building area for every worker (or 2.49 workers per 1,000 square feet.)

RESIDENT EQUIVALENT DEMAND FACTOR
The Nexus Study uses a calls-for-service approach to establish the relative fire facilities demand from residential and nonresidential land uses. Specifically, service call data is converted into a resident equivalent demand factor, representing the demand for service from a worker compared to a household resident. Service calls for calendar year 2022 were gathered from the District's Emergency Reporting database.

As shown in Figure 3 on the following page, the District had 2,037 service calls originating from residential properties and 405 from nonresidential properties. Service calls originating from highways, roads, open fields, or otherwise not classified as originating from residential or nonresidential land use were excluded. Dividing service calls for residential and nonresidential land uses by the corresponding estimated number of residents and workers results in the relative number of per capita for residential and nonresidential land uses. As shown, District residents are served at 1.0, and workers in the District are served at 0.51 compared to District residents.

FACILITIES EDU DEMAND FACTOR
Next, equivalent dwelling unit ("EDU") demand factors are established to compare the relative fire facilities demand across four residential, and three nonresidential land uses. The EDU is also used to convert nonresidential building area to residential dwelling unit value.

This common approach allows for the cost of fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment to be equitably apportioned among residential and nonresidential land uses.

Figure 7 below shows the facilities EDU demand factor calculation for each land use category. The residential land use categories are expressed per dwelling unit, and the nonresidential land use categories are expressed per 1,000 square feet of building area.

Each land use category's occupancy density is multiplied by their respective resident equivalent demand factor, then converted to single-family home value. By this measure, for example, one single-family home creates the demand for fire facilities equal to 470 square feet of retail/commercial building area.

DETERMINATION OF EXISTING FIRE PROTECTION FACILITIES
The next step in determining the District's existing fire facilities standard is to calculate the replacement value of the District's fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment. Figure 6 below presents a summary of replacement costs (in 2023 dollars) for the District's existing fire facilities (land and fire stations), apparatus (engines and special vehicles), and equipment.

Fire station replacement costs are based on the construction cost for a recently constructed fire station in Willits, California, and adjusted 18.3 for cost inflation. The estimated land value is based on market research conducted by SCI Consulting Group assessed land value for sales within 2022. The estimated replacement value of the District's apparatus, vehicles, and equipment inventory is based on unit cost assumptions provided by the District.

Estimated values of older apparatus have been discounted from the replacement value of the new apparatus to reflect their age. (The detailed inventory and estimated replacement value for each are provided in Appendix B.)
As shown below, the estimated replacement value of the District's existing fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment is approximately $9.18 million in 2023 dollars.

DETERMINATION OF THE FIRE IMPACT FEE
The Act requires that development impact fees be determined in a way that ensures a reasonable relationship between the need for fire protection facilities, apparatus and equipment, and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed. In this section, the District's existing fire facilities standard is determined and then applied to four residential and three nonresidential land use categories in proportion to the demand they create as measured by their EDU demand factor.

EXISTING FACILITIES STANDARD
The District's ratio of existing fire facilities, apparatus, and equipment to the District's service population establishes the standard for determining new development's fair share of the cost to expand the District's fire facilities as growth occurs. As shown in Figure 7 below, this standard is represented by the existing fire system facilities cost of $1,660.57 per demand EDU.

5,529
$1,660.57
Since residential land uses have different dwelling unit occupancies and living areas, the residential fire impact fees are expressed on a per square footage basis for four residential land use categories. The four residential land use categories are defined below. • "Single-family housing" means detached or attached one-family dwelling unit with an assessor's parcel number for each dwelling unit.
• "Multifamily housing" means buildings or structures designed for two or more families for living or sleeping purposes and having kitchen and bath facilities for each family.
■ "Mobile home" means a development area for residential occupancy in vehicles that require a permit to be moved on a highway, other than a motor vehicle designed or used for human habitation and for being drawn by another vehicle.

ANDERSON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023 SCIConsultlngGroup
PAGE 13
• "Accessory dwelling unit" or "ADU' means a dwelling unit, or granny flat, either a detached or attached dwelling unit, which provides complete, independent living facilities for one or more persons with provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking, and sanitation on the same parcel as the primary residence.

The residential fire impact fee shall be charged on the square footage within the perimeter of a residential structure. Garages, carports, walkways, overhangs, enclosed patios, detached storage structures, or similar areas are excluded.

Figure 8 below presents the calculation of the maximum residential fire impact fee. As shown, the residential fee is determined by multiplying the fire facility standard by their respective EDU demand factor plus an additional 4 percent for administration of the fire impact fee program. The fee program administrative cost component is designed to offset the cost of District and City and County collection, documentation, annual reporting requirements, five-year report requirements, periodic Nexus Study updates, and other costs reasonably related to compliance with the Act.

NONRESIDENTIAL FIRE IMPACT FEE DETERMINATION
As stated earlier, the Act requires that development impact fees be determined in a way that ensures a reasonable relationship between the fee and the type of development on which the fee is imposed. Since different nonresidential land uses have varying employment densities and structural area, the nonresidential fire impact fee is expressed per square foot of building area for three nonresidential land use categories. The three nonresidential land use categories are defined below.
• "Retail / Commercial" means retail, commercial, educational, and hotel/motel construction.
• "Office" means general, professional, and medical office construction. • "Industrial" means manufacturing construction.

The nonresidential fee shall be charged for "covered and enclosed space" within the perimeter of a nonresidential structure. Garages, parking structures, unenclosed walkways, utility or disposal areas, and storage areas incidental to the development's principal use are excluded.

Figure 9 on the following page presents the nonresidential fire impact fee calculation. As shown, the fee for the three nonresidential land uses is determined by multiplying the existing facilities standard by their respective EDU demand factor plus an additional four percent for fee program administration. Note that the costs are expressed per 1,000 square feet of nonresidential building area and then converted to a per-square-footage fee.

COMPARISON OF CURRENT AND MAXIMUM FIRE IMPACT FEE
The figure below compares the District's current fire impact fee with the maximum fire impact fee justified by this Nexus Study. The new residential fire impact fee is expressed on a square-footage basis replacing the current dwelling unit basis. The nonresidential fee is separated into retail/commercial, office, and industrial development fees. Accessory dwelling unit "ADU" of 750 square feet or more must be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. The construction of an ADU less than 750 square feet of living area is exempt from the fire impact fee.

PROJECTED FEE REVENUE
Figure 12 projects fire impact fee revenue through 2040 for the District. Based on household and employment projections from the City, residential demand assumes an annual growth rate of 0.42 percent. It is assumed that nonresidential development will occur proportionately. Total fire impact fee revenue is then calculated by multiplying demand EDU growth by the existing facilities standard. As shown, fire impact fee revenue will contribute approximately $874,000 (in 2023 dollars) towards the District's future long-term capital improvement plan, representing new development's fair share of the plan.

Certainly, arguments can be made for higher or lower demand growth. However, the projected demand growth and fee revenue are merely estimates for planning purposes. The fee program is designed not to depend on a specific capital improvement plan and a specific level of new development. Only enough fee revenue will be generated for the District to expand its existing service level to serve the growing service population.

NEXUS FINDINGS
This section frames the Nexus Study findings in terms of the legislated requirements to demonstrate the legal justification of the fire impact fee. These requirements are discussed below.

PURPOSE OF FEE
The purpose of the fire impact fee is to fund the cost of fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to new residential and nonresidential development in the District. The fire impact fee will ensure that new development will not burden existing development with the cost of expanded facilities, apparatus, and equipment required to accommodate growth as it occurs within the District.

USE OF FEE REVENUE
Fee revenue will be used solely and exclusively to fund facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines and other vehicles), and equipment costs that expand the District's fire system capacity. Below is a summary of the allowable and prohibited uses of fee revenue.

FIGURE 13 - SUMMARY OF ALLOWABLE AND PROHIBITED USES OF FEE REVENUE Allowable Uses

BENEFIT RELATIONSHIP
The fee will be collected as development occurs. To maintain its existing level of fire protection and emergency response services, fee revenue will be used to expand the District's facilities, apparatus, and equipment to meet the additional demand generated by the new residents and employees and new structural area created by new development projects.

Fee revenue will be deposited into a separate fire impact fee account or fund in a manner to avoid any commingling of the fees with other revenues and funds. The fee revenue will be restricted to the uses described in the "Use of Fee Revenue" finding. Additionally, the Act ensures that fee revenue is expended expeditiously or refunded to the developer. These Act requirements ensure that a development project paying the fire impact fee will benefit from its use. Moreover, since the District's fire protection and emergency response resources are organized as an integrated fire system, improvements and purchases with the District benefit the entire fire system.

New residential and nonresidential development projects in the District will increase the number of persons (residents and employees) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in which persons live or work. The growth in persons and structural area will create additional need for the District's fire protection and prevention, emergency response service, and a corresponding need for new or expanded facilities and replacement of apparatus, vehicles, and equipment in order to maintain the District's existing service level. The fee will be imposed on different types of development projects for the additional service population generated and structural area created by new development projects.

ROUGH PROPORTIONALITY
The cost of fire protection faci1ities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to a development project is based upon the level of existing development served by the District's existing fire system. The use of an existing facilities standard methodology to determine the fire impact fee achieves proportionality between existing development and new development.

Moreover, these equivalent costs are applied to seven ,and use categories in proportion to the need they create for expanded facilities.

The use of a fire facilities demand factor to determine the fire impact fee schedule achieves proportionality across the types of development on which the fee is imposed. Larger development projects will generate a higher number of residents and structural area to

protect and, as a result, will pay a higher fee than smaller development projects. Thus, the application fire impact fee schedule to a specific project ensures a reasonable relationship between the fee and the cost of the facilities, equipment, and apparatus attributable to that project.

I SUBJECT
Award of Bid for Audit Services for City of Anderson for years ending 2023, 2024, and 2025

I RECOMMENDATION
The Assistant City Manager/Finance Director/Treasurer recommends that the City Council:

Award the contract for annual audit services to The Pun Group, for $60,000.00 for Fiscal Year 2022-2023, $63,000.00 for fiscal year 2023-2024 and $66,150.00 for fiscal year 2 024-2 02 5

I FISCAL IMPACT
While the largest portion of audit cost is a general fund expense, approximately 15% is for other funds such as the Streets and Roads funds for the TOA portion of the audit and Successor Agency Funds.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The annual audit, performed by an independent auditor, is necessary to ensure the City Council and the public that the City's finances are being managed accurately, prudently, and in accordance with established legal and industry standards.

ITEM 8.5 PAGE1 7/18/2023
AGT CPAs and Advisors has performed our audit for many years but with the contract coming to an end AGT, notified the City that they will no longer be performing municipal audits. Staff solicited proposals for auditing services. The City received two responses. In reviewing the proposals, we considered several factors. First, it was essential that the selected auditor have considerable experience with similar sized cities. The Pun Group has an extensive list of performing City audits. We next looked at the clarity and thoroughness of the proposal and the company's approach to the audit process. Additionally, we took into consideration the ability of the auditor to maintain the independence required by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). Price was also considered, but experience and their audit approach were given more emphasis in the decision-making process. After interviewing and scoring the firms, City Manager and Assistant City Manager agreed that the proposal from The Pun Group most closely matched our needs and priorities. In addition, the hours The Pun Group quoted to complete the audit were significantly higher than the other proposals, which staff believes is representative of the time needed to complete the audit.

Approve a Professional Services Agreement with PACE Engineering for two complete Financial Assistance Applications to the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Financial Assistance (DFA) to request Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) project planning financing for a WWTP Improvement Project and a Collection System Improvement Project.

I RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works Director recommends that the City Council:

Authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Service Agreement with PACE Engineering for two complete Financial Assistance Applications to the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Financial Assistance (DFA) to request Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) project planning financing for a WWTP Improvement Project and a Collection System Improvement Project.

I FISCAL IMPACT
The contract is not to exceed $50,000 without written approval from the City.

ITEM 8.9b PAGE1 7/18/2023
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The planning grants are anticipated to include, but not be limited to, planning, design, and construction funding application services for the WWTP and collection system. The collection system planning grant is also anticipated to include the completion of an update to the Sewer Master Plan.

While there are no guarantees due to the City's small, disadvantaged classification and the more lucrative funding availability, PACE believes the City has a good chance ofreceiving these planning grants. The current State funding availability is unprecedented, with the City qualifying up to $45,000 per connection based on the current Intended Use Plan.

Request for Proposals (RFP) for a Comprehensive 5 Year Water Rate Study

I RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works Director recommends that the City Council:

Direct the Public Works Director to issue a Request for Proposals for a consultant to perform a Comprehensive 5 Year Water Rate Study
!FISCAL IMPACT
The rate study is anticipated to cost approximately $50,000. The funds will come from the water enterprise fund.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
Consumers of the City's water service are charged user fees to pay for the cost of maintaining our water system. Each year staff analyzes the revenues and expenditures in the Water Enterprise Fund, comparing the service's costs with revenues received from users. To keep up with inflationary costs, the City typically imposes small increases in user fees each year.

The City of Anderson last increased rates for water consumption by Resolution No. 21-06 adopted on February 2, 2021. Under this resolution, both minimum monthly water charges and water consumption charges were increased by 5% in 2021 through 2025.

Unfortunately, continuing increases in operating expenses have made the production of safe drinking water more expensive and have already outpaced the rate increases that ITEM 8.9c PAGE1 7/18/2023
were implemented by Resolution No. 21-06. For the fiscal year 2021, the water enterprise fund showed a decrease to reserves of $282,527 and again in the fiscal year 2022 there was a decrease in reserves of $135,042.46. Expenditures continue to outpace revenues in the water fund leaving an approximate reserve balance of $218,500 at the beginning of the fiscal year 2023/2024.

Much like the General Fund reserve, it is important to have a healthy reserve in the water enterprise fund. Traditionally, the reserve is used for planned and unexpected water infrastructure repairs. The water system is comprised of 10 large municipal wells, over 46 miles of water line, 3 million gallons of storage, and 5 large hydropneumatic tanks. An unexpected repair on any of the many water system components could quickly deplete the reserves in the water enterprise fund.

There are several key reasons why the rate increases implemented in the past have been quickly outpaced by operating costs. One of the largest reasons is conservation efforts mandated by the state, which lower the amount of water sold to consumers. Another large cost is the continued increases that the City pays for electric power. Each one of the wells is dependent on electric motors to operate the pumps to extract the water from the ground.

In the past, the City has upgraded the pumps and motors to make them as efficient as possible but the decrease in energy usage has been offset by increased energy cost. Another factor is the increased state and federal regulations pertaining to drinking water. Every year there are new mandates for increased testing and reporting. The number of compounds that are tested for and the frequency of tests have continued to increase.

Moving forward the costs previously stated will continue to increase.

As stated previously small rate increases have occurred on a fairly regular basis to keep up with rising costs. These rate increases were generally determined by the staff looking at revenue vs. expenditures and then making an educated guess about future costs. We have reached a point where a more comprehensive study needs to take place. This is the reason staff has recommended that an RFP be circulated to find a consultant to conduct the study.

The study will not only look at past revenues and expenditures but also look at the age and state of the infrastructure to determine future repair costs. In addition, state mandates will be looked at to determine costs along with increases in energy costs.

The City of Anderson strives to maintain our affordable water rates. Our water service remains a tremendous value for our residents. To continue to have a viable water utility for our citizens this rate study is needed.

A. STUDY OBJECTIVES
The City of Anderson ("City") is requesting proposals from qualified consultants to conduct a comprehensive water rate study for the City (Study). Timing of work tasks will take into account the need to arrive at final rate numbers for the City in order to determine final water rates.

The intent of the Study is to independently assess and evaluate existing water rates and provide fair and reasonable apportionment of costs for its customers and provide water rate structures that will adequately fund City water utility's operations, capital improvement, and debt service needs for a period of no less than five (5) years. The selected consultant will be responsible for ensuring compliance with Proposition 218 for both the City.

The Study will be based on a comprehensive review of water enterprise funds' historical statements of revenue and expense, current year budgets, customer counts and classes, historical usage data, Water Master Plans, Capital Improvement Plans, projected growth, and any other information deemed necessary.

B. BACKGROUND
City of Anderson
The City of Anderson is located in Shasta County, California, and began operating its first community water system in 1964. The total service area is approximately 6.6 square miles and the total population served is approximately 11,147. The City provides water service to approximately 3,340 residential, commercial, institutional, and light industrial accounts.

The City's water utilities are accounted for as self-supporting enterprise funds.

Revenues are derived primarily from water service charges and must be adequate to fund the City's operating and capital programs.

The City's water supply is obtained from 10 large capacity groundwater municipal wells. The City fully owns and operates its water distribution system which includes over 46 miles of piping, two storage reservoirs, as well as chlorination, and pumping facilities.

Evaluate and recommend a drought pricing program that mimics the different water stages of the City's emergency water supply shortage plan and urban water management plan and continues to fund water operations and capital projects.
f) Environmental Regulation: The studies shall include an assessment of the revenue stream generated by the recommended rates and their ability to continue to fully fund utility system costs under the impacts of future water quality and statutory regulations and standards.
g) Other Service Charges: Assess existing customer service fee structure and identify other potential areas for service and system charges (shutdown activities, back-flow devices, plan reviews, fire service charges, water service shut-offs, change of ownership fees, etc.) and recommend changes, if appropriate. Assessment is to note any resulting increase in liability the City may incur as a result of assessing or not assessing the fees. h) Depreciation: Consideration shall be given to funding past and future depreciation.
i) System Maintenance: Provide a comparison of current system expenditures and costs (operations, capital improvements, bonded debt) against appropriate industry benchmarks.
j) Stability: The report shall assess the stability of the current and alternative rate structures. The recommended structure shall result in no decrease in revenue stability compared to the current structure. Evaluate the City's growth projections and inflationary adjustments and recommend appropriate modifications to future water rates.

The second portion of the proposal, the statement of compensation, of the two highest ranked firms will be considered, only after the two highest ranked firms have been identified. The firm offering the lower cost quotation will be retained, unless:
(a) The firm with the lower cost has a qualitative evaluation score that is less than 80% of the higher qualitative evaluation firm, or; (b) The lower cost quotation is unreasonably low and found to be nonresponsive or; (c) It is found that the proposal of the firm quoting the higher cost includes elements that will result in an overall cost saving to the City upon implementation of the project.
