EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

STUDY OVERVIEW
The City of Bell has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study. California cities regularly conduct these studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall portfolio of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services.

Industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that same individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues as much as possible for use toward services of broader community benefit.

USER AND REGULATORY FEES
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, license fees, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by the City for providing fee -related services an d ac tivities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying th e fee .

California law provides guidance regarding the amounts the City may charge for fee-related services and activities. Specifically, in order to avoid being considered taxes, the fees ch arged shall not exceed th e estim ated reasonable c ost of providing th e services , activities, or materials for which fees are charged.

At its conclusion, this study proposes for City Council review and consideration at public hearing a new Schedule of User and R egulatory Fees for application in Fiscal Year 2024 -2025 and continued update in subsequent years.

COST RECOVERY POLICY AND PRACTICE
Recovering the costs of providing fee-related services directly influences the City’s fiscal health and increases the City’s ability to meet the service level expectations of fee payers.

The services for which the City imposes a user or regulatory fee typically derive from an individual person or entity’s action, request, or behavior. Therefore, except in cases where there is an overwhelming public benefit generated by the City’s involveme nt in the individual action, a fee for servic e en sures that th e individual bears m ost, if not all, of the cost incurred by the City to provide that servic e . When a fee targets “100% or full cost recovery,” the individual is bearing the entirety of the cost. When a fee targets less than full cost recovery, another City revenue source – in most cases, the General Fund – subsidizes the individualized activity.

Generally, fees for service are targeted to full cost rec overy, inclusive of operating, direct, indirec t, and c apital costs, exc ept in cases wh ere the City Counc il cites a public interest in lower fees . The City may also be influenced by market conditions, comparing to municipalities of similar size and service profile.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FINDINGS AND PROPOSED ACTION
During the course of study, information and analysis was generated and is discussed substantively throughout this report and its technical appendices. However, summarized in the following table by broad fee category and highlighted in the subsequent findings statements, are o utcomes and proposals of particular interest to City leaders and policymakers.

PRIMARY OUTCOMES
 BUILDIN G F EES
• Building fees are collected to recover the costs associated with plan review, permitting, and construction inspection for new and remodeled buildings and other structures. The City’s building fees were most recently adjusted in FY 2023 -24, consequently only a minor adjustment to fees is proposed as a result of this study. • Fees are proposed to adjust by 4%. Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.

 PLANNING F EES
• Due to the nature of development within California, many projects take a significant amount of resources over a multi-month and potentially multi-year timeframe, depending on project complexity and magnitude. Full cost recovery is targeted from most proposed fees due to the regulatory nature of the fees and the high level of direct benefit resulting from construction activities including enjoyment of property enhancements, increased property values, and the des ire to avoid having other Bell residents and businesses subsidize an individual's private construction activities.
• Fees intended to recover less than the City’s cost of service are:
o Appeal: 20% cost recovery
o Categorical Exemption Fee for Environmental Review: 25% cost recovery o Business License Review Fee: 50% cost recovery
• The City may adjust fees and enhance cost recovery, without positioning itself as a regional outlier.

CLE A RS OU RCE RE PORT T O T H E CI T Y OF B E L L | 4

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 ENGINEERIN G F EES
• Engineering and encroachment permit fees are collected to recover the costs associated with improvement plan review, permitting, and construction inspection along with review and inspection of work conducted within the City right-of-way. • Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.

 TECHN OL OGY ENHANCEMENT AND GENER AL PLAN UPD ATE F EES • New fees are recommended to recover a portion of the City’s costs of enhanced technology used to serve the development community and to offset a portion of the costs of periodic updates to the City’s General Plan. Proposed fees are:
o Technology Enhancement Fee: 5% of Building Permit Fees o General Plan Update Fee: 5% of Building Permit Fees for New Construction and Additions

 FILM PERMIT F EES
• Adjust film and photography structure to reflect differing levels of city support required to authorize and administer commercial filming and still photography within the City.

 PARKS AND RECR EATION FEES
• Parks and Recreation Departments throughout the State are facing significant challenges. o Increases in labor, benefit, utility costs, services and supplies, and insurance related costs
o Providing access to facilities and programs that are safe to use and align to community standards (health and safety).
o Minimum wage increase in excess of 25% since 2019.
• Fees are generally proposed to be adjusted by approximately 1 0%. Amounts are rounded for administrative efficiency. The proposed adjustments are simply intended to reflect the impact of recent changes in labor and regional cost inflation. If fees are left unchanged in an environment of increasing costs, the City’s cost recovery levels deteriorate.

 POL ICE FEES
• Police Fees have been recalibrated to reflect current costs of service and State limits for certain fee-related services. The City’s Police Services are funded predominantly through tax revenues.

DRAFT

CLE A RS OU RCE RE PORT T O T H E CI T Y OF B E L L | 5

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 ADMINISTR ATIVE F EES
• Administrative fees have been recalibrated to reflect current costs of service and State limits for certain fee-related services.
• A credit card transaction processing fee of 2.5% is proposed to allow the City to recover the costs of processing transactions paid via credit card.

FISCAL IMPACT
The anticipated fiscal impact of the proposed fee adjustments is 141,000 in additional General Fund revenues. Although the changes are anticipated to provide additional revenue, the revenue is not intended to be used to fund new services, rather the revenue is intended to offset the costs of providing existing services that are recoverable from fees.

FEE COMPARISON
Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and will remain within the range of amounts charged by other LA County jurisdictions.

Key tasks expected by the City from this study included the following:
 Review eligible fee -related services Citywide to establish the reasonable relationship between current fees for service and the underlying costs of service.  Calculate the full cost of service, including estimated Citywide overhead costs.  Recommend fees to be charged for each service.
 Recommend cost recovery strategies and best practices in setting fees, while considering the complexities and demands of responsible programs or departments.  Identify underlying billable rates for cost recovery opportunities and as the basis for user fees.

DIRECT SERVICES UNDER REVIEW

FEE CATEGORIES
 Building – Services include , but are not limited to building plan review, permitting, and inspection for construction and sub-trades.
 Engineering – Services include , but are not limited to, Including and development plan review and inspection, and encroachment permitting.

REASON FOR STUDY
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by a City for providing fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.

overall body of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services. Widespread industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues for services of broader community benefit.

PREVAILING GUIDANCE
The objectives of this study, the methodology used to complete the study, and the formulation of outcomes and recommendations for future consideration were significantly influenced by Article 13C of the California Constitution and Section 66014 of the California Government Code.

Article 13C states that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. Additionally, Article 13C identifies the following as items that are not defined as taxes:
 A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege.  A charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product.  A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication th ereof.  A charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property.
 A fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law.
 A charge imposed as a condition of property development.  Assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII D.

Section 66014(a) of the California Government Code includes the following, “Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a local agency charges fees for zoning variances; zoning changes; use permits; building inspections; building permits; …the process ing of maps under the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act…; or planning services…; those fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged, unless a question regarding the amount of the fee charged in excess of the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services or materials is submitted to, and approved by, a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting on the issue.

The outcomes and recommendations of the study are intended to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws including providing confirmation that the proposed fees (“charges”) recommended as a result of this study are not taxes as defined in Articl e 13C of the California DRAFT

CLE A RS OU RCE RE PORT T O T H E CI T Y OF B E L L | 8

Constitution and that the proposed fees are no more than necessary to the cover the reasonable costs of the City’s activities and services addressed in the fees. Additionally, this report is intended to show that the manner in which the costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and services provided by the City.

METHODOLOGY AND DATA SOURCES
This study calculated the estimated reasonable cost of providing various fee -related services across the City organization. Generally, the estimated reasonable cost of providing the fee-related services and activities examined in this study can be calculated as the product of the composite fully-burdened hourly labor rate of the division responsible for providin g services and the estimated labor time required to process a typical request for service.

The composite fully-burdened hourly rates calculated in this study are based on the estimated annual hours spent providing fee related services, and estimated labor, services and supplies, and Citywide overhead expenditures, sourced as follows:
 Labor expenditures for in -house personnel were based on budgeted salary and benefits expenditures.
 Contract service personnel and other services and supplies related costs were based on Fiscal Year 2023/24 adopted budgets and anticipated costs and current industry market rates for service.
 Citywide overhead cost allocations were developed to assign a reasonable share of central service support to the City’s direct service units.
 Estimated labor time spent providing fee related services were developed based on interviews with City staff and are in-line with typical direct service ratios experienced by the consultant via studies of similar municipalities throughout California. Commonly used industry data also aided in the development of time estimates and proposed fee structures.

Once cost of service levels are identified, the City may use this information to inform targeted cost recovery from fees. Fees set at the cost of service target full cost recovery. Fees set at any amount less than the cost of service target less than full cost recovery.

An illustration of the methods used in this analysis is shown in Exhibit 1.

IMPLEMENTATION

CONSIDERATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION
If the City decides to adopt or otherwise utilize outcomes generated through this study, it should:

 Update Systems for Fee Outcom es - Ensure that City staff begin using updated fees and associated outcomes once the updated schedule of fees becomes effective. Values should be included in all official fee schedules used throughout the City (e.g., departmental pamphlets, counter schedules, and online information). Additionally, ensure collections processes are updated, which may include coding in billing systems and training for personnel who handle fees directly with the public.
 Actively M onitor th e Use of F ees - In order to recover accurate and eligible amounts expected, the City should be diligent about tracking time to projects for time and materials billings and ensuring fees are applied in the correct amount and using the correct and intended basis for fixed fee billings.
 Monitor F eedback and Perm it Statistics - Monitor permit and application volume and applicant feedback to determine if fee modifications are resulting in any unanticipated changes in project frequency and to increase the level of detail available for revenue forecasting.
 Annually R eview an d Adjust F ee Values - In order to generally maintain pace with regional cost inflation and/or the City's salary cost inflation, the City should adjust its fees on an annual basis. A commonly used, reasonable inflation index is the annual change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index (CPI) representative of the region.  Periodic ally Perform Comprehen sive An alysis - A comprehensive fee study should be conducted periodically (e.g., every three to five years) to ensure fee levels remain at or below legal limits and are consistent with evolving service practices and local conditions.

RESOLUTION No. 2025-12

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

BELL, CALIFORNIA UPDATING AND ESTABLISHING

VARIOUS USER AND REGULATORY FEES

WHEREAS, user and regulatory fees are established by the City Council; and

WHEREAS, the City recently completed a study to identify the cost of providing various user and regulatory fee-related services; and

WHEREAS, the study examined fee -related services provided by the City, the costs reasonably borne by the City in providing those services, the beneficiaries of those services, and the revenues produced by those paying fees and charges for special services; and

WHEREAS, the City Council finds that providing these services is of special benefit to applicants both separate and apart from the general benefit to the public; and therefore, in the interests of fairness to the general public, the City desires to better recover the costs of providing these services from applicants who have sought or require the City's services by revising its schedule of fees; and

WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that the study provides adequate evidence to conclude that the revised fees do not exceed the cost to provide the services for which the fees are charged; and

WHEREAS, the City Council desires that annually the City Manager, or City Manager designee may update the fees based on the prior year annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index All Urban Consumers for Los Angeles -Long Beach- Anaheim, California (CPI). If the CPI does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall be made to the fee schedule that year unless a public hearing is held to consider amendment of fees; and

WHEREAS, in adopting this Resolution, the City Council is taking action only on those fees for the services, programs or products set forth in Exhibit “A” which have been modified from prior resolutions of the City Council. The remaining fees that have not been modified from prior resolutions shall remain in full force and effect.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BELL, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1 . That that the City’s User and Regulatory Fee Schedule is amended as outlined in “Exhibit A”, attached hereto. The adopted schedule will be effective July 01, 2025.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 26
th day of February, 2025.

ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION

7.1 California Law.

This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to subm it to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District

-20-
01135.0006/1053516.1
Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.

7.2 Disputes.
(a) Default; Cure. In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give not ice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances w arrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on the invoices only when the default is cured. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.

Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
(b) Dispute Resolution . This contract is subject to the provision s of Article 1.5 (commencing at Section 20104) of Division 2, Part 3 of the California Public Contract Code regarding the resolution of public works claims of less than $375,000. Article 1.5 mandates certain procedures for the filing of claims and supporting documentation by the Contractor, for the response to such claims by the City, for a mandatory meet and confer conference upon the request of the Contractor, for mandatory non-binding mediation in the event litigation is commenced, and for mandatory judicial arbitration upon the failure to resolve the dispute through mediation. This Agreement hereby incorporates the provisions of Article 1.5 as though fully set forth herein.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise s uch right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

7.4 Waiver.

Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other

-21-
01135.0006/1053516.1
provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation o f any provision of this Agreement.

Acceptance by City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.

Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.

7.6 Legal Action.

In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, i n law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Contractor shall file a claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.

7.7 Liquidated Damages.

Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of One Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($1,200.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any service required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance ( Exhibit “D” ). The City may withhold from any monies payable o n account of services performed by the Contractor any accrued liquidated damages. Pursuant to Government Code Section 4215, Contractor shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay in completion of the project when such delay was caused by the failure of the public agency or owner of the utility to provide for removal or relocation of utility facilities.

7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Contractor, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Contractor, the perio d of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Contractor reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Contractor may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be

-22-
01135.0006/1053516.1
specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3 . In the event the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entit led to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor.

If termination is due to the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Contractor for the purpose of set -off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.

7.10 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be e ntitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

7.11 Unfair Business Practices Claims.

In entering into this Agreement, Contractor offers and agrees to assign to the City all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. § 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, (commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services or materials related to this Agreement. This assignment shall be made and b ecome effective at the time the City renders final payment to the Contractor without further acknowledgment of the Parties.
