AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

BRADBURY AMENDING THE BRADBURY MUNICIPAL CODE

REGARDING FENCE AND WALL HEIGHTS ON RESIDENTIAL

PROPERTIES AND COURT LIGHTING
ATTACHMENTS:
1) Map and photos of City boundary areas accessible by the public 2) Planning Commission Resolution No. PC 24-320
3) Chapter 100 - Fences, Hedges, Walls and Courts - Redline 4) Ordinance No. 391

INTRODUCTION
The Planning Commission was asked by the City Council to look into increasing the maximum height allowed for perimeter fences and walls to eight (8) feet where a property line coincides with the City boundary at areas accessible by the public, such as the Sawpit Wash. A discussion on this matter was initiated at the December 6, 2023, special Planning Commission meeting, and the Commission asked that the discussion be continued to have staff provide additional information. The Commission also noted that there are other aspects of Chapter 100 - Fences, Hedges, Walls and Courts that should also be updated.

At the January 24, 2024, regular Planning Commission meeting, staff provided the attached map and photos of areas along the City boundary that are accessible by the public. These areas are along the Sawpit Wash, at the Bradoaks Avenue cul-de-sac adjacent to the Sawpit Wash, Norumbega Drive at 157 and 158 Sawpit Lane, and the properties on the south side of Gardi Street.

AGENDA ITEM NO. _
Ordinance No. 391 - Introduction
March 19, 2024 Page 2 of 4
The Planning Commission determined that fences and walls along the City boundary at these properties should be allowed to be up to eight (8) feet tall to discourage unauthorized access. The Commission also agreed that Section 9.100.100.(b)(2) regarding the type of court lighting should be amended because it references metal halide lighting, which is an obsolete type of lighting. The Commission directed staff to prepare a draft ordinance for the Commission's review at the February 28, 2024, meeting.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning Commission reviewed a draft ordinance at the February 28, 2024, regular meeting. The draft ordinance proposed to amend Section 9.100.040 - Fences, walls, windscreens and hedge height limitations, by adding the following seventh subsection:
(7) Fence and wall height exceptions. Fence and wall heights may exceed six feet, but shall not exceed eight feet in height in the following locations:
(a) Rear yards on the south side of Gardi Street;
(b) Perimeter areas abutting Bradbury Road and Wildrose Avenue (c) Perimeter areas (with the exception of the properties on Lemon Avenue immediately and west of Barranca Road) in the A-5 zone directly abutting property in the City of Monrovia.

The Commission found the wording of proposed Subsection (7)(c) awkward, and revised it to read as follows:
(c) Perimeter areas (with the exception of the properties on Lemon Avenue immediately and west of Barranca Road) in the A-5 zone directly abutting along property in the City of Monrovia (with the exception of the properties on Lemon Avenue immediately and west of Barranca Road).

The draft ordinance also proposed to amend Subsection (2) Type of Section

9.100.100.(b) Court lighting, to eliminate the reference to an obsolete type of lamp:
(2) Type. Lamps shall be metal halide type of not more than 1,000 watts each or equal. Lamps shall be horizontally mounted, with light directed down toward the ground, rectilinear-type, sharp cutoff fixtures.

The Commission noted that the crucial aspect of the court lighting regulations is that the lights be shielded to shine down onto the courts and that a limit on wattage is not necessary. The requirement for shielding is stated in Subsection (5). It was further noted that the current state-of-the-art lighting is LEDs and if a new type of lighting is developed in the future, the Code can again be amended. The Commission revised the wording of Subsection 9.100.100.(b)(2) to be as follows:

Ordinance No. 391 - Introduction
March 19, 2024 Page 3 of 4
(2) Type. Lamps shall be metal halide LED type of not more than 1,000 watts each or equal. Lamps-and shall be horizontally mounted, with light directed down toward the ground, rectilinear-type, sharp cutoff fixtures.

The Planning Commission adopted the attached Resolution No. PC 24-320 to recommend to the City Council approval and adoption of an ordinance amending the municipal code regarding fence and wall heights on residential properties and court lighting, and that the ordinance be found to be exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

PROPOSED ORDINANCE
The regulations for fences, hedges, walls, and courts are in Chapter 100 of the Development Code. A redline version is attached. The height limitations are listed in Section 9.100.040, and the court lighting requirements are listed in Section 9.100.100.(b).

The proposed amendments were reviewed by the Planning Commission, which recommended the afore-described revisions. These revisions were reviewed by the City Attorney, and the attached Ordinance No. 391 has been drafted to amend Section

9.100.040 - Fences, walls, windscreens and hedge height limitations, with a seventh subsection as follows:
(7) Fence and wall height exceptions. Fence and wall heights may exceed six feet, but shall not exceed eight feet in height in the following locations:
(a) Rear yards on the south side of Gardi Street;
(b) Perimeter areas abutting Bradbury Road and Wildrose Avenue; and (c) Perimeter areas in the A-5 zone, any portion of which abuts property in the City of Monrovia.

Ordinance No. 391 also amends Subsection 9. 100.100. (b)(2) as follows:
(2) Type. Lamps shall be LED type. Lamps shall be horizontally mounted, with light directed down toward the ground, rectilinear type, with sharp cutoff fixtures.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
It is recommended that the project be determined to qualify as exempt under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the common sense exemption set forth in Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because the ordinance will not cause any significant effect on the environment, and pursuant to Section 15305 of the CEQA Guidelines because the amendments are minor alterations in land use limitations.

The proposed ordinance would adopt policies affecting minor land use features and will not change the density, intensity, or allowed uses, or otherwise have other effects on the environment. The proposed ordinance is not for any specific project and therefore will not Ordinance No. 391 - Introduction
March 19, 2024 Page 4 of 4
impact any environmental resource or hazardous or critical concern, will not create cumulative impacts, or impacts to scenic highways, hazardous waste sites, or historical resources.

FINDINGS
Ordinance No. 391 affects minor land use features without changing any density, intensity, or allowed uses. The amendments will not have effects on the environment. It is recommended that the proposed ordinance be found to be consistent with the City's General Plan, and that it is exempt in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

PUBLIC NOTICE
At least ten days prior to the March 19, 2024, meeting, a notice of the public hearing for Ordinance No. 391 was mailed to the owners of the affected properties in the City o Bradbury, and to the owners of any adjacent properties in the City of Monrovia. The notice was also posted at the three locations stipulated by City Council Resolution No. 1226, and on the gate at the westerly terminus of Deodar Lane.

RECOMMENDATION AND ACTION
The City Council is to open a public hearing and solicit testimony on proposed Ordinance No. 391. After the testimony, the Council is to close the public hearing and it is recommended that the Council determine that the findings can be made to approve and introduce Ordinance No. 391 and schedule the second reading and adoption for the regular meeting on April 16, 2024.

Agenda Memo
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Mario Flores, Management Analyst
DATE: March 19, 2024
SUBJECT: Authorize the City Manager to Enter into an Agreement with Willdan Financial Services for a Comprehensive User Fee Study ATTACHMENTS: 1. Willdan Proposal for the Comprehensive User Fee Study (

SUMMARY
Atter a bidding process to perform a Comprehensive User Fee Study (Study), it i ecommended that the City Council approve Willdan Financial Services to perform th Study in a not-to-exceed amount of $24,855, and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the Professional Services Agreement.

BACKGROUND
California cities may impose user fees for services and activities they provide set forth in the State Constitution. A citywide fee schedule establishes user fees and charges related to services. User fees charged by the City of Bradbury (City) may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost to provide a service or regulate an activity. The California Constitution governs fees and requires that: 1) fees be set at a level no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity; and 2) the fee bears a reasonable relationship to the payer's burden on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity.

Cities that rely on fee revenue may experience fluctuations due to economic conditions or other reasons beyond their control. Therefore, a comprehensive user fee study should be conducted periodically to align with the current economic condition but also abide by the State Constitution. The City has not conducted a comprehensive user fee study since the 2015/16 Fiscal Year.

A comprehensive user fee study is important to first determine whether a fee adjustment is necessary to perform the required level of service. If an adjustment is necessary, a user fee study will calculate how much of a fee adjustment will be needed to meet City services.

Jser fee studies may also recommend reasonable annual CPI fee increase percentages and recommend additional tees, if needed, for services the City regularly provides that de not currently have an associated fee.

ANALYSIS
On January 8, 2024, the City circulated a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Comprehensive User Fee Study to update the City's current fee schedule. The Submission deadline was set tor February 9, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. In response to the RFP circulated at the conclusion of the deadline date, the City received a total of five (5) bid submissions. Below is an outline of the submitted responses.

Company Fee Estimate
Revenue & Cost Specialists (RCS) $24,500
Willdan Financial Services $24,855
Government Consulting Partners (GP) $28,750
Witten Resource Management Services $32,460
Matrix Consulting Group $36,000
Revenue & Cost Specialists' (RCS) bid came in at the lowest cost of all proposals ($24,500). However, City Staff feels that the additional services provided by Willdan Financial Services (Willdan) are worth the cost difference of only $355. Such services include providing the City with user-friendly Excel based models that the City can retain for years after the study. These models can be easily updated to add or remove services and/or costs, update budgets in future years, and determine the proper allocation of expenditures and on-going service costs provided by the City. Additionally, at the conclusion of the project, Willdan will provide training so that City Staff can independently and efficiently evaluate the effects of changes in certain factors.

Willdan has been in business for over twenty years and one of their primary lines of business is performing financial analyses for local governments, specifically comprehensive user fee studies, full cost allocation plans and OMB compliant cost allocation plans. Willdan has provided financial consulting services to hundreds of public agencies. The firm's list over the past five years includes the following comparable cities; Arcadia, Canyon Lake, El Monte, Irwindale, Monterey Park, San Dimas, and Sierra Madre.

Willdan's proposed scope of services to accomplish a comprehensive user fee study for the City of Bradbury is supplemented by a variety of tasks that include; compiling inventory of current and potential fees; hosting meetings to collaborate with City Staff; developing a comprehensive user fee model; incorporating overhead factors; gathering information; performing data analysis; and preparing reports. (
Staff recommends Willdan for the following reasons:
• Willdan has been in the business of performing financial analyses for local governments for over twenty years including comprehensive user fee studies, fu ost allocation plans and OMB compliant cost allocation plans. Willdan ha provided financial consulting to hundreds of public agencies and some that are similar to Bradbury. Staff was impressed with both Willdan's experience performing similar studies, their knowledge of these studies and the State regulations that dictate them.
• Willdan has committed to assign an experienced team to the City. The proposed engagement team includes the Vice President and Principal Consultant of Willdan's Financial Consulting group with over twenty years of experience, a Senior Financial Analyst with ten years of experience and a quality assurance/control advisor with forty years of experience. • City Staff believes that Willdan's experience and knowledge will result in a strong and detendable user tee study that is also easy to understand. Willdan's experience with other local cities was also desirable because they will be able to use this experience to compare the City's fees with neighboring jurisdictions. • Lastly, Willdan's proposed fee for the project was highly competitive with the other four firms.

Based on the firm's proposal (Attachment 1) and cost, City Staff is recommending Willdan as the best partner to perform the City's Comprehensive User Fee Study.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Comprehensive User Fee Study will be funded from the City's general fund and will not exceed the amount of $24,855.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
1) Approve Willdan Financial Services to perform a Comprehensive User Fee Study in a not-to-exceed amount of $24,855.
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the Professional Services Agreement.

Re: Proposal to Conduct a Comprehensive User Fee Study for the City of Bradbury Dear Mr. Flores:

Municipalities throughout California are constantly challenged to do more with less. As cities are faced with limited financial resources to address competing priorities and objectives, they still strive to maintain high standards of service to their communities. Likewise, processes and staffing levels are frequently evolving as cities seek more cost-effective service models or in response to extenuating circumstances, such as the recent pandemic. Considering this, it is critical for the City of Bradbury ("City") to ensure that its fees for requested services have been refined and updated to reflect current circumstances. The fees must account for the true cost of providing City services, incorporate provisions for overhead rates and costs related to indirect support, and ensure the maximum appropriate cost recovery, so that the revenues generated by fees cover the cost of those services to the greatest extent possible. City leaders and employees need a clear understanding of standards, service levels, and the associated costs. Recognizing this, the City has responded to this need by soliciting proposals for a Comprehensive User Fee study.

Willdan Financial Services ("Willdan") is uniquely qualified to assist the City of Bradbury with this project. The following are specific advantages that Willdan will bring to the City.

Extensive Local Experience with Similar Projects for Southern California Cities Willdan has worked with cities near Bradbury, and throughout Southern California, on Comprehensive User Fee projects with objectives very similar to those for this study. We've also worked frequently and recently with small communities and those who use contract services extensively, so we understand the unique dynamics of these types of cities and service models. Our unique local knowledge will help us bring valuable perspective and knowledge of other local cities' approaches and best practices related to fees and their policies on fee setting and subsidies and assist us in conducting meaningful and efficient fee comparisons. Recent and ongoing studies include the Cities of Sierra Madre, Los Angeles, West Hollywood, Burbank, El Monte, Los Alamitos, Stanton, Montebello, Arcadia, Cudahy, Lomita, Pomona, Claremont, Chino Hills, and Chino.

Collaborative Approach, Proven Results and User-friendly Models and Reports Willdan prides itself on working closely with City staff to develop an approach that is targeted toward your specific objectives and reality, and then working together with you to gather first-hand information regarding the processes and tasks required to provide services to those requesting them. This is a distinct advantage we will bring in our approach with the City of Bradbury. A collaborative approach ensures we clearly understand your goals and challenges, and just as importantly, you understand the process and the results.

We create user-friendly Excel-based models that the City can retain and conduct our analysis and develop the model collaboratively with City staff. Rather than using an inflexible proprietary software program, we construct our models from the ground up, mirroring the City's budget format wherever possible.

As a result, the information contained in our models is easy for City staff to interpret, easy to update and adjust on-the-fly, and the familiar software ensures ease of navigation.

Our reports clearly and graphically illustrate full and recommended levels of cost recovery and projections of revenue for fee programs, break down the costs into direct and indirect overhead categories, and present the fee methodologies.

Our approach is geared toward delivering work on schedule and presenting relevant results at public meetings and council workshops to stakeholders and elected officials, who may not want to pore through the detailed analysis.

The Willdan Team is experienced at communicating complex analytical results in a manner that is easy to understand for non-finance-oriented individuals. We have coordinated or participated in numerous public and staff workshops regarding fees and cost of service-based charges.

Unique Combination of Services and Expertise/Public Engagement Willdan is a team of nearly 80 professionals who provide essential financial consulting services throughout California, and the United States. Willdan has provided the requested services to municipal clients for two decades; and is the only firm providing these types of consulting services that also has a long history of providing contract staff support to public agencies for the delivery of municipa services. This direct experience as "agency staff" provides us with firsthand understanding of City operations and is uniquely useful in determining the full effort associated with service delivery and in developing a fee schedule that is easy to communicate and implement.

We are excited about this opportunity to continue to serve the City of Bradbury. To discuss any aspect of our proposal, please contact me; my contact information is provided in the table below.

2. Scope of Services
Project Understanding and Approach
Willdan Financial Services (Willdan") understands that the City of Bradbury ("City") wishes to complete a Comprehensive User Fee Study that includes:
• Calculating and updating all fees and charges for 100% full cost recovery for City services; • Recommending reasonable annual CPI fee increase percentages; and • Recommending additional fees, if needed, for services the City regularly provides that don't currently have an associated fee.

Given our extensive experience developing, implementing, and updating User Fees, and our direct experience working with the City on the previous User Fee Study, Willdan is confident that we can meet the City's objectives and request for this Comprehensive User Fee Study.

Key City issues and objectives that are addressed within our scope of services include the following:
• Meeting with City Staff to review existing fee schedules and conducting interviews with key City Staff involved in providing end-user services to gather information necessary to understand the processes, operations, structure and staffing necessary for the City to provide services for which fees are charged, and how contract services and staff are incorporated into City operations;
• We understand that the City hasn't comprehensively evaluated fees since 2015-2016, so we will review the City's Municipal Code and current fee schedule to make sure it reflects current needs of City staff and the community and ensuring the schedule is updated to include new fees for services provided where no fee currently exists, and to remove obsolete fees;
• Conducting analysis that clearly identifies the full (100%) cost of providing services for which fees are charged, and ensuring that there is a reasonable relationship between these costs, the services being provided, and the recipients of these services - all to support compliance with Prop 26 and Prop 218; • Comparing costs of providing services with current cost recovery levels and evaluating and adjusting fees and charges to ensure they align with the cost of the services being provided by the City; • Incorporating overhead allocations from the City's existing Cost Allocation Plan; • Focusing on changes that may have occurred in the City's staffing and cost structures, to ensure that future fees adequately recover anticipated costs;
• Working with City Staff to develop meaningful recommendations for fee setting and subsidies where charging fees that represent full cost recovery may not be reasonable for policy or political reasons; • Conducting meaningful comparisons of high visibility fees with similar communities; and • Preparing and presenting a comprehensive report that is easy to understand, clearly identifies services for which fees are charged, the cost of those services broken down into direct and indirect components, current and recommended cost recovery levels and fee amounts, and presenting the results in a way that is readily understood by decision makers.

The end products will include user-friendly Excel-based models, Rather than costly and inflexible proprietary which City staff will retain. These models can be easily updated to add or remove services and/or costs, update budgets in future years, and determine the proper allocation of expenditures and on-going service costs provided by the City. Most importantly, we will ensure retain, gives City staff the control to make on- that the results and recommendations are clear, understandable, the-fly adjustments and updates defensible, and easy to implement.

We will meet directly with departmental representatives at the City at the outset to discuss the approach and process for the studies. Discussions will include ways to combine tasks and efforts to maximize efficiencies and ensure adherence to the specified timeline.

For the Comprehensive User Fee Study, we will work directly with service-providing City personnel and interact directly with residents and customers to understand the procedures involved.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 3
City of Bradbury, CA
By carefully examining these processes, we will be able to identify associated costs such as direct staff costs (salaries and benefits) associated with personnel involved in the activities and appropriate overhead allocations from both the department and city levels.

For a successful and effective engagement, it is important to have a thorough understanding of specific City policies The structure and organization of the City and the relationships between the central and operating departments are also key concepts to incorporate into our analysis. We bring years of successful experience working directly with hundreds of cities throughout California.

Willdan possesses the resources, practical experience, creative thinking, and collaborative consulting skills necessary to complete this important project. Key distinct advantages that Willdan brings to the City include the following.

On-site Data Gathering
Our experience has taught us that working together, via face-to-face discussions, is the most efficient and thorough way to ensure that results are accurate, and that studies are completed in a timely manner, which again, is critical in this proposed engagement.

Consequently, through on-site interviews with your staff, Willdan will collect the majority of required data for studies.

This method is better than the typical "time and motion surveys" that are provided to agency staff when studies like these are conducted. This process ensures that we gather the data we need in one coordinated step, rather than having to go through repeated follow-up and clarification.

This approach and the dedication of our staff will help ensure we meet the City's timeline and objectives and provide important information to City staff and the Council as soon as possible.

Public Engagement
Our models and project approach are geared toward delivering our work on schedule and presenting our analysis results at public meetings and Council workshops. While we understand that the City Council and local business community may be generally supportive of increasing fees where necessary, it will be important to present recommendations to them in a way that clearly demonstrates the rationale and supporting analysis.

The Willdan Team is experienced at communicating complex analytical results in a manner that is easy to understand by non-finance-oriented individuals and facilitates discussion. Our proposed principal-in-charge for this engagement has coordinated or participated in numerous public and staff workshops regarding fees and cost of service-based charges. As previously mentioned, our objective is to provide useful, detailed information, and present recommendations to the City Council and public in a way that clearly demonstrates the rationale and supporting analysis. Our experience ensures that we can meet this objective.

User-friendly Models and Reports
Willdan prides itself on creating user-friendly Excel-based models that the City The model will be developed can retain and conducting our analysis and developing the models to allow the City to run "what- collaboratively with City staff. With City staffs immediate input and if" scenarios to address collaboration, Willdan Will design extremely flexible, intuitive Excel-based possible changes in staffing models. In the future, as the City assumes new responsibilities, modifies existing levels, working hours, etc. processes, and/or eliminates unnecessary services or programs, the models will be capable of adding or deleting funds, objects, departments, programs, staff positions, and activities. Willdan understands that issues facing the City are unique; consequently, we design our models to match your immediate and desired needs to ensure that end-results exceed staff expectations rather than using inflexible proprietary software.

These models are then the City's to retain, after our services are completed, and allow for the creation of revenue projections, highlighting potential new revenues, and levels of subsidy.

A key element of these studies is presenting results and recommendations in a straightforward manner, which allows Council and staff to confidently make fee setting policy decisions and understand the impacts of those decisions.

Rather than using an inflexible proprietary software program, we construct our models from the ground up, as previously discussed, mirroring the City's budget format wherever possible.

As a result, the information contained in our models is easy for City staff to interpret, and the familiar software ensures ease of navigation. As the models are being designed and constructed, we will work together with City staff to determine the best and most effective features to include.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 4
City of Bradbury, CA
After the project is completed, we will provide training, so that staff can independently and efficiently evaluate the entects of changes in certain factors. Created directly from the models, our reports clearly and graphically illustrate the Tull cost recovery level of tee programs and provide projections of revenue from fee programs.

Project Methodology
The following describes our proposed approach, and work plan to prepare a Comprehensive User Fee Study.

Comprehensive User Fee Study Methodology
o comprenensively update rees, the City should develop a comprehensive user fee schedule that accurately account or the true cost of providing services. Once the study is complete, the fee study model must be flexible so that the Cit can ada, delete, and revise fees in the future. To meet this goal, we will bring our expertise and unique perspectives to your fee study by approaching the project with these three principles:
1) Defensibility
Our user fee projects have not been legally challenged since the inception of this practice area in our firm. We have accomplished this by closely working with legal counsel familiar with user fee studies, our engineering division and with agency staff. In this way, we can tailor the correct approach to ensure full cost recovery combined with a sound and reasonable basis for each user fee you implement.

While Proposition 218 does not directly apply to non-property-related fees, we employ principles from this important constitutional article to make certain that your user fee schedule is developed with fairness, equity, and proportionate cost recovery principles in mind. With the addition of Proposition 26, Willdan will review each analyzed user fee for compliance and appropriateness to ensure continued defensibility. 2) Project and Staff Time
The City must have a sound and technically defensible fee schedule to ensure costs are appropriately recovered, as applicants approach the City for its services. Our standards and approaches serve to get to the issues of your fee study quickly.

Starting with the project kick-off, we will make certain that your staff understands the purpose and scope of the study and its corresponding on-site departmental interview. As Willdan is able to communicate directly with the service providers, this face-to-face interaction provides valuable time estimates. 3) Responsiveness
We take great pride in providing responsive service to our client agencies. Frequent communication is critical to a successful user fee study experience. We will provide a list of data requirements in advance of the project kick-off. Due to this simple step, the introductory meeting can focus on the survey input process, answering questions, determining policy goals, and defining next steps in the project. We will follow up weekly with you at each step in the fee study process to make sure that staff "buys in" to the fee study approach and results.

Comprehensive User Fee Study Approach
Our approach to preparing the user fee study and documentation for Bradbury includes:
• Close coordination with your staff to devise a consensus approach. Different programs and/or different service delivery methods will necessitate different approaches. • We will discuss specific pros and cons with City staff as we determine which methods work best for each fee category;
• Strict adherence to key legal and policy issues with regard to user fees, including the percent of cost recovery that the City seeks to achieve. A user fee shall not be set higher than the reasonable cost of providing a fee-generating service. Our approach provides you with a fee schedule that achieves maximum legal cost recovery while ensuring that each fee is supported by technically defensible documentation; and Technical analysis necessary to ensure State compliance, and to anticipate and resolve potential policy issues using a combination of industry standards as well as City specific methods.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 5
City of Bradbury, CA
As described below, there are two basic approaches to calculating user fees:

Approach 1: Case Study Method
This is also sometimes referred to as a cost build-up approach. Using a time and materials approach, the "Case Study Method" examines the tasks, steps and City staff involved in providing a particular 'unit' of service, such as a permit review, and then uses that information to develop estimates of the actual labor and material costs associated with providing a unit of service to a single user. It is often used when a service is provided on a regular basis, and staff and other costs associated with the service can be segregated from available budget data.

A typical case study fee model should comprise the following three general cost layers:
1) Central Services Overhead: This category may involve such costs as labor, services, and supplies that benefit more than one department, division, or project. The exact benefits to specific areas are impossible to ascribe to a single activity. Examples are purchasing, human resources, and liability insurance. As part of the comprehensive user fee study, these costs are calculated in the
overhead cost review.
2) Department Overhead: This category Central
may include expenses related to such items Services
Overhead
as office supplies, outside consultants, and
membership dues. It may include
management, supervision, and
administrative support that are not provided
to a direct fee-generating service. Typically,
these items are charged, on an item-by-item
basis, directly to the department, division, or
project.
3) Personnel Costs: This category refers to
direct salary and benefit costs of staff hours Departmental Fully - spent on providing a fee-generating service Burdened
Overhead
(e.g., on-site building inspector). Hourly Rate
Approach 2: Average Cost Method
This is also sometimes referred to as a
programmatic approach, because it looks at
costs at a program level, and then allocates
them to participants on an occurrence basis.

By taking total service costs across a
substantial sample period (a year) and
dividing them by the total number of service
units delivered over that same period, costs
per unit of service is estimated. Personnel
This approach is useful when services or Costs
programs are provided in a more aggregate
manner, where it might be difficult to identify
a specific sequence of steps associated with
one user or participant; or where it is not
feasible to cost-effectively segregate costs
associated with specific activities.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 6
City of Bradbury, CA
Proposed Scope of Services
Our proposed work plan, described in detail by task, is provided below. We explain how each task will be accomplished and identify associated meetings and deliverables. We want to ensure our scope provides quality and clarity and is responsive to the City's needs and specific local circumstances. We will work in concert with the City to adjust the scope as needed during the course of the study.

Comprehensive User Fee Study Work Plan
Task 1: Initial Document Request
Objective: Initial due diligence; obtain study-related data.

Description: Prior to the kick-off meeting, we will obtain and review relevant documentation to further enhance our understanding of the services, fees, and rates to be studied. A written request for data will be sent to the City: Please note that Time Survey data is not part of this request and will be gathered during the on-site interviews described in Task 5.

We will request information and documentation on current fees and fee programs, activity levels, and budget and staffing information (to the extent not already available) related specifically to programs and activities which have associated fees, and for which the City has this level of detail.

Deliverables: Willdan: Submit information request to City.

City: Provide requested data to Willdan (prior to Task 3, Kick-off Meeting/Refine Scope). As with the cost allocation plan, we will follow up with the City to confirm receipt of requested data and information and highlight data elements that are outstanding.

Task 2: Compile Inventory of Current and Potential Fees Objective: Willdan will identify a schedule of fees and methodology for calculating the fees.

Description: Based on the results of the initial document request and independent research, incorporate into our model the existing fees, provided by the City, to comprise the parameters of the fee study.

Meetings: It is possible that a conference call with the City may be necessary to discuss new fees to implement or existing fees that may no longer be required.

Deliverables: Willdan: One (1) draft list of current fees based on initial data provided (to be discussed and finalized during the kick-off call).

City: Review completed fee schedule with comments/revisions to be discussed during the kick-off meeting.

Task 3: Kick-off Conference Call / Refine Scope
Objective: Confirm goals and objectives for the Comprehensive User Fee Study. Identify and discuss policy considerations typically associated with a User Fee Study, address gaps in data, and refine appropriate existing or new fee categories (based on Task 2).

Description: Verify our understanding of the City's goals, the City's cost-recovery policy for user fees, and to fill an gaps in data/information necessary for the project. It is important for the City and Willdan to identif and address any foreseeable problems and maintain open communication throughout the process.

Meetings: One (1) project kick-off call to initiate the entire project, discuss data needs, and address policy objectives. As mentioned in the cost allocation plan work plan, we suggest combining the kick-off calls Deliverables: Willdan: 1) Revised project scope and schedule (if needed); and 2) brief summary of policy decisions (if needed).

City: 1) Provide further data needs; and 2) determine/introduce City's project manager.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 7
City of Bradbury, CA
Task 4: Develop Comprehensive User Fee Model/Incorporate Overhead Factors Objective: Develop and test model.

Description: This task involves the development of the model ultimately used to calculate the departmental fees, based on data and information gathered in previous tasks and in the Time Survey Interviews described in Task 5.

Key model inputs will include staff and allocated overhead costs per position, and relevant budget data on salaries and benefits.

Most of this information will be developed during the cost allocation plan phase of this project and will be incorporated directly into the user fee model. We will request clarification and/or additional data if necessary.

The model will build upon the Cost Allocation Plan results from Willdan's previous work with the City, to provide an allocation of administrative and overhead costs to fee related activities and departments providing services to customers, so that fees and billable rate schedules incorporate applicable costs Since the Cost Allocation Plan is not being updated as part of this study, we will rely on the analysis and model we developed with the City recently.

Furthermore, the fees and rates charged to customers will also reflect the cost of the services being provided, to the extent possible given policy and/or political considerations.

Deliverables: Willdan: One (1) user-friendly model in Microsoft Excel format, which, when finalized, City staff can use to calculate fee changes annually, or as often as deemed appropriate by the City Council.

Task 5: Staff Interviews and On-site Information Gathering Objective: Meet with City staff to complete Time Surveys and understand service delivery processes.

Description: In order to assist staff with the completion of the survey worksheets, we will schedule one (1.0) day of meetings with staff; however, the number of meetings needed may vary depending on the number of staff and departments involved.

The Willdan Team will conduct interviews with supervisors/managers, as well as other staff, as deemed appropriate and/or necessary, from each department involved in the user fee study to determine the average time required by City staff to provide each of the services for which a fee is collected.

The fee model is designed so that full cost recovery fees are calculated immediately upon input of staff time. These full costs are also compared to current cost recovery levels. This will allow Willdan and City staff to conclude with a final meeting to review the draft full cost recovery fees and adjust any times as necessary once all information has been compiled and input into the fee model. We will schedule the interviews with staff to minimize any disruption to their normal workflow.

Meetings: One (1.0) business day of in-person meetings/staff interviews at Bradbury City Hall.

Deliverables: Willdan and City: Time surveys and draft full cost recovery fees.

Task 6: Data Analysis and Final User Fee Schedule
Objective: Incorporate information obtained from on-site surveys to fully develop model.

Description:

Where appropriate, we will suggest and discuss with staff alternate approaches to existing fee programs (i.e., building fees) and suggest potential areas where fees could be collected where they are not currently.

We will calculate and present the full cost recovery level for fees, both current and projected under the new fees, and revenue projections, given certain assumptions about the levels of subsidy for different fees.

W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 8
City of Bradbury, CA
Current levels of cost recovery will be compared to actual full costs calculated during the course of this study. Cost will be calculated at reasonable activity levels and include all appropriate direct and indirect costs and overhead. We will review fee programs for compliance with Propositions 218 and In developing the fee schedules for each division, we will make recommendations for new fees where appropriate, based on our experience with other cities. Some areas for new fees may be due to changes in law (legalized cannabis), or for activities that the City finds itself performing regularly, but for which no fee is collected.

We will work with Staff to review the City's current Business License fee structure and methodology, analyze the categories and bases for the fee, and if practical and feasible, convert the current assessment bases from employee head counts to gross receipts; The user fee data analysis and model development may take three (3) to five (5) weeks with frequent correspondence with City staff to refine data inputs and assumption and discuss current cost recovery amounts, necessary to recover full cost and frequency activity.

Meetings: One (1) meeting, as necessary, to gather additional input, complete analysis and finalize fee schedule.

Deliverables: Final user fee model for City Council presentation and discussion.

Task 7: Common Fees Comparison
Objective: Examine selected user fees charged by up to five (5) comparable cities in Los Angeles County or other jurisdictions that are close in proximity or similar to the City of Bradbury.

Description: We will access and use our knowledge of other jurisdictions to benchmark the City's five (5) most common visible fees or highest yielding fees with comparable jurisdictions.

Fee schedules are rarely readily or directly comparable from agency to agency due to definitional and operational differences. For example, a grading permit in one jurisdiction may include the plan check service, while the same permit in another jurisdiction may not, resulting in similar sounding services with widely varying costs. For this reason, Willdan takes a selection of the City's most commonly used and/or highest yielding fees.

The survey will contain the following, a comparison of common or similar fees and charges used by the City and other jurisdictions; current and proposed fees and charges unique to the City of Bradbury; fees and charges used by other public entities not currently used in the City; and If possible, identify characteristics and processes unique to the City that account for significant variances in fees and charges used by other jurisdictions.

Deliverables: Willdan: Recommendations provided in Task 8 will incorporate the data gathered during our examination.

Task 8: Prepare and Present Draft Report
Objective: Prepare draft report.

Description: This task involves the preparation of the draft report that discusses the study's background, the methodologies utilized in the study, and the results and presentation to various stakeholder groups.

As noted below, meetings may occur during this or the next task as appropriate. The calculations used to generate the user fee study will be included textually, as well as in easy to understand tables.

Individual fee summaries by department and a comprehensive fee schedule will be included.

The draft report will include the following:
• Key results and findings;
• Basic descriptions of each service:
• The full cost of each service at lowest reasonable activity level and current cost recovery levels; • Costs broken down graphically into indirect and direct components, with a graphic display of the level of cost recovery;
• Fee recommendations with associate levels of cost recovery; • Projections of potential fee revenue;
• Assessment of reasonableness of each City's costs;
W WILLDAN Comprehensive User Fee Study 9
City of Bradbury, CA
Review of reasonableness of current consultant cost structure (for Building Division services); As appropriate, recommend alternative methodologies for building permit fee calculation; and • Summary and recommendations.

The objective of the report is to communicate the recommendation of appropriate fees, which include the appropriate subsidy percentage for those fees where full cost recovery may be unrealistic.

Meetings: One (1) conference call with City staff, to present draft results address questions and receive feedback.

Deliverables: Willdan: Draft report for City review and comment.

City: Review of draft report, with comments and edits.

Task 9: Revise Draft Report/Determine Cost Recovery Levels for Recommended Adoption Objective: Review of draft report and fee model.

Description: The goal of this task is to conduct an in-depth review of the draft report and model, incorporate feedback and changes as a result of previous discussions, and arrive at an optimum fee structure.

Often through the course of an engagement, City staff will volunteer insightful likes and dislikes regarding the existing fee structure. We listen to this feedback carefully because your staff members know the community best. Comments usually revolve around issues of:
• Understandability;
• Fairness to applicants;
• Ease of calculation;
• Appropriate levels of cost recovery; and
• Full cost recovery hourly rates.

When adjusting fee recovery levels, we believe it is important to address these concerns.

Following one (1) round of comments from City staff on the draft report and feedback from City staff, we will prepare the final report for presentation to the City Council.

Meetings: One (1) online demonstration (WebEx) to review the report and model, with any revisions.

Deliverables: Draft report, revised draft /final report.

Task 10: Prepare and Present Final Report/Instruct Staff on Model Objective: Prepare and present final report to City Council. Instruct staff on the operation and use of the model for future modifications.

Description: This task is the culmination of the entire project. Based on staff comments received regarding the draft report, we will prepare the final report for presentation.

Meetings: One (1) meeting with City Council to present the results and adopt the updated fee schedule. We will also provide staff training on the operation and use of the model on the same day, during regular business hours.

Deliverables:

City Staff Support
To complete our tasks, we will need the cooperation of City Staff. We suggest that the City of Bradbury assign a key individual to represent the City as the project manager who can function as our primary contact. We anticipate that the City's project manager will:
1) Coordinate responses to requests for information;
2) Coordinate review of work products; and
3) Help resolve policy issues.

Willdan will endeavor to minimize the impact on City Staff in the completion of this project. We will ask for responses to initial information requests in a timely manner. If there are delays on the part of the City, we will contact the City's project manager to steer the project back on track. We will keep the City's project manager informed of data or feedback we need to keep the project on schedule.

Willdan will rely on the validity and accuracy of the City's data and documentation to complete the analysis. Willdar will rely on the data as being accurate without performing an independent verification of accuracy and will not be responsible for any errors that result from inaccurate data provided by the client or a third party.

Comprehensive User Fee Study and Full & OMB Cost Allocation Plan Willdan prepared a Cost Allocation Plan, OMB Compliant Cost Allocation Plan, and User Fee Study for the City of Arcadia. Willdan developed a cost allocation plan and model that fully allocated central overhead costs to appropriate operating departments, funds, and/or programs. This portion of the project involved the development of two models:
a full Cost Allocation Plan and an OMB compliant Cost Allocation Plan. The OMB compliant Plan was developed using the same model, utilizing a toggle to remove previously flagged costs that would not be allocable under OMB guidelines.

Utilizing the full CAP, Willdan completed the comprehensive user fee study. Willdan completed both studies concurrently, in a manner that fully identifies and considers direct and indirect costs, along with changes in staffing, structure, and methods of service delivery.

Comprehensive User Fee Study
In Spring of 2023 Willdan completed a comprehensive master user fee study for the City of Burbank. Burbank is a large, diverse city with a full range of municipal services. We worked with City staff to gather the necessary data to incorporate appropriate central service overhead factors from the City's current Cost Allocation Plan into this analysis.

Following this, we analyzed the current fee schedule, developed a detailed cost-of-service analysis, and calculated the full cost of providing services for which fees are charged. We also evaluated opportunities to implement new fees and eliminate obsolete ones. Finally, we conducted fee comparisons with other local municipal agencies and worked with City Staff to develop fee-setting recommendations that incorporated policy guidelines and presented these to the City Council for adoption.

Willdan updated many of the fee programs and their structures. Final master fee recommendations were made to address the City's goal to maximize the recovery of the costs of providing services, to the best extent possible, including overhead. The final steps of the process included a detailed presentation to the City Council, and delivery to the City of the fee model for their future use.

We worked with City staff to understand the various functions served by indirect staff in various City departments, and which operating departments or funds they served.

We worked directly with City staff to develop and verify allocation bases and make adjustments through several iterations of the CAP model, as necessary.

We developed a cost-of-service analysis and model that updated existing fees and incorporated new fees and used it to create an updated comprehensive fee schedule.

Agenda Memo
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Mario Flores, Management Analyst
DATE: March 19, 2024
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION ON BRADBURY NIGHT OUT AUDIO
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Audio Cost Estimates

SUMMARY
Staff has consulted with Pacific Productions (Pacific) for technical audio assistance regarding the upcoming Bradbury Night Out (BNO) event. They provided two quotes to resolve BNO's audio issues: $900 to rent audio equipment and $4,817 to purchase new audio equipment.

It is recommended that the City Council elects to rent audio equipment at a not-to- exceed amount of $900 for BNO since it is not budgeted for Fiscal Year 2023-24.

BACKGROUND
The City of Bradbury held its annual Bradbury Night Out (BNO) on Thursday, July 27, 2023 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Overall, the event was a success, except there were issues with the audio system. The music seemed to be fine but residents could not hear the Mayor's speech. Audio from the two speakers located at the rear of City Hall, where the Mayor addressed the audience, was inconsistent as guests and vendors at a distance from the speakers were unable to hear. Furthermore, speech coming from the two speakers in the front of City Hall were extremely weak as almost no one could hear any talking. This resulted in attendees being unable to listen to the Mayor's speech and raffle while they were waiting in line at the food and ice cream trucks in front of City Hall. This has been an ongoing issue for the past few years.
(
Staff currently uses a total of four basic speakers for the BNO event that were purchased (
from Amazon and Costco. Staff is now exploring options to remedy this issue for the upcoming BNO event because these speakers have proven to be inadequate.

ANALYSIS
Staff recently reached out to Pacific Productions (Pacific) for technical audio assistance.

Pacific is a production company located in Monrovia made up of experienced and knowledgeable team members that provide technical support and equipment for special events. Pacific contracts with the cities of Monrovia and Arcadia for their community events. The CEO of Pacific is a Monrovia resident and has experience within the San Gabriel Valley.

Upon consulting with Pacific, Staff received two estimates. One estimate covers the cost for renting equipment and technical support for the duration of the event, and the other accounts for purchasing upgraded equipment to own and use for all BNO events moving forward. If the City were to purchase, Pacific would train Staff to use the new equipment and the speakers come with a 6-year manufacture warranty. The warranty only covers defects and not damages. Below is an outline for each estimate.

Goods & Services Fee Estimate
Audio Rental Equipment & Technical Support $900
Audio System Purchase (6-year Warranty) $4,817.93
Staff consulted with the Public Safety Committee (Committee) regarding the two options at the March 14, 2024 Committee meeting, and they felt that renting the audio system is the most viable option.

ALTERNATIVES

1. The City Council can decide to purchase a new upgraded audio system for $4,817.93

2. The City Council can decide to reject both estimates and direct Staff to use the same equipment the City already owns.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council elects to rent audio equipment and technical support for Bradbury Night Out at a not-to-exceed amount of $900 since it is not budgeted for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
