Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
In the next section, the cost per capita from Table 4.2 is used to calculate impact fees per unit for general government facilities for each type of development defined in this study.

Impact Fees per Unit
Table 4.3 shows the calculation of impact fees per unit for general government facilities. Those fees are calculated using the per-capita cost from Table 4.2 and service population per unit factors from Table 2.1.

Projected Revenue
Table 4.4 projects potential revenue from the general government impact fees. That projection is based on the cost per capita from Table 4.2 and the added service population from Table 2.5.

The projected revenue shown in Table 4.4 assumes that future development in the City will occur as forecasted in Chapter 2. It does not account for limits on impact fees set by development agreements for some future projects.

Planned Improvements
Details regarding expenditure of the general government impact fees can be found in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.

Updating the Fees
The impact fees calculated in this chapter are based on estimated current replacement costs for the City’s existing general government facilities. We recommend that the fees be reviewed annually and adjusted as needed using the most current cost estimates. The California Cost Index, published by the Department of General Services and the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index (BCI) can be useful for indexing construction costs over time. The City will be required to update the nexus study at least every eight years, per Government Code Section 66016.5(a)(8).

Nexus Summary
As discussed in Chapter 1 of this report, Section 66001 of the Mitigation Fee Act requires that an agency establishing, increasing or imposing impact fees, must make findings to:

Identify the purpose of the fee;
Identify the use of the fee; and,
Determine that there is a reasonable relationship between:
a. The use of the fee and the development type on which it is imposed; b. The need for the facility and the type of development on which the fee is imposed; and
c. The amount of the fee and the facility cost attributable to the development project.

Satisfying those requirements also ensures that the fees meet the “rational nexus” and “rough proportionality” standards enunciated in leading court decisions bearing on impact fees and other exactions. (For more detail, see “Legal Framework for Impact Fees” in Chapter 1.) The following paragraphs explain how the impact fees calculated in this chapter satisfy those requirements.

Purpose of the Fee: The purpose of the impact fees calculated in this chapter is to provide additional general government facilities to maintain the existing level of service for general government facilities in Brisbane.

Use of the Fee. Impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional general government facilities to serve new development in the City. 186

Reasonable Relationship between the Use of the Fee and the Development Type on Which It Is Imposed. The impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional general government facilities needed to serve additional development in Brisbane at the currently existing level of service in terms of the relationship between facility cost and service population.

Reasonable Relationship between the Need for the Facilities and the Type of Development on Which the Fee Is Imposed. Added service population associated with new development will increase the need for general government facilities in Brisbane. The general government facilities impact fees will provide funding for additional general government facilities needed to maintain the existing level of service in Brisbane.

Reasonable Relationship between the Amount of the Fee and the Facility Cost Attributable to the Development Project. The amount of the general government facilities impact fees charged to a development project will depend on the increase in service population associated with that project. The fees per unit of development calculated in this chapter for each type of development are based on the estimated average service population per unit for that type of development in Brisbane. Thus, the fee charged to a development project reflects the impact of that project on the need for general government facilities in the City. 187

Chapter 5. Police Department Facilities
This chapter calculatesimpact fees for Police Department facilities in Brisbane. Brisbane currently has one police station which shares a building with City Hall.

Methodology
This chapter calculates impact fees using the existing inventory method discussed in Chapter 1.

With that method, impact fees are based on the existing level of service so that the impact fees will provide the funding needed to maintain the existing level of service as the City grows.

Service Area
Brisbane’s Police Department facilities serve all development in the City. The impact fees calculated in this chapter are intended to apply to all new development except for public facilities, unless the fees for a project are limited by statute or established by a development agreement.

Demand Variable
A “demand variable” is a quantifiable attribute of development that is used in impact fee calculation formulas to represent the impact of development. The demand variable used to calculate impact fees for Police Department facilities in this chapter is police calls for service per year.

The police calls-per-unit-per-year factors used to calculate impact fees for police facilities are shown in Table 2.3 in Chapter 2 and are used in Table 5.4 in this chapter to calculate impact fees per unit for each type of development defined in this study.

Level-of-Service Standard
The level-of-service standard used in this study to calculate impact fees for Police Department facilities is the existing level of service. That level is defined as the replacement cost of the City’s existing Police Department facilities divided by the existing number of calls per year, which results in a cost per call. To calculate impact fee per unit, by development type, that cost per call is multiplied by the number of calls per unit per year for each development type defined in this study.

In 2021, Section 66016.5 was added to the Mitigation Fee by Act AB 602. That section requires, after January 1, 2022, that the level of service used in an impact fee study must be compared with the existing level of service. If the level used in the impact fee study exceeds the existing level of service, an explanation is required.

Because the impact fees for Police Department facilities calculated in this chapter are based on the existing level of service, those fees present no issue with respect to the statute. 188

Existing Police Department Facilities
Table 5.1 shows key data about Brisbane’s existing police station, including its current replacement cost which is combined with the land value of the Police Department’s share of the City Hall/police station site to arrive at the impact fee cost basis. The police station’s share of outstanding debt related to existing facilities is deducted from the impact fee cost basis so that it reflects only the City’s equity in the existing facility.

Table 5.2 shows an inventory of the Brisbane Police Department’s vehicle fleet. The replacement cost of those vehicles will be included in the cost basis for the impact fees calculated in this chapter. Leased vehicles are not considered in this analysis.

Table 5.3 divides the combined impact fee cost basis for Police Department facilities and vehicles by the number of existing calls for service to calculate the existing level of service in terms of a cost per call for service per year.

In the next section, the cost per call from Table 5.3 is used to calculate impact fees per unit for Police Department facilities for each type of development defined in this study.

Impact Fees per Unit
Table 5.4 shows the calculation of impact fees per unit for Police Department facilities. Those fees are calculated using the per-capita cost from Table 5.3 and calls-per-unit-per-year factors from Table 2.3.

Projected Revenue
Table 5.5 projects potential revenue from the police impact fees. That projection is based on the cost per call from Table 5.3 and the calls per unit per year from Table 2.5.

The projected revenue shown in Table 5.5 assumes that future development in the City will occur as forecasted in Chapter 2. It does not account for limits on impact fees set by development agreements for some future projects.

Updating the Fees
The impact fees calculated in this chapter are based on estimated current replacement costs for the City’s existing Police Department facilities. We recommend that the fees be reviewed annually and adjusted as needed using the most current cost estimates. The City will be required to update the nexus study at least every eight years, per Government Code Section 66016.5(a)(8).

The California Cost Index, published by the Department of General Services and the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index (BCI) can be useful for indexing construction costs over time.

The City will be required to update the nexus study at least every eight years, per Government Code Section 66016.5(a)(8).

Planned Improvements

b. The need for the facility and the type of development on which the fee is imposed; and
c. The amount of the fee and the facility cost attributable to the development project.

Satisfying those requirements also ensures that the fees meet the “rational nexus” and “rough proportionality” standards enunciated in leading court decisions bearing on impact fees and other exactions. (For more detail, see “Legal Framework for Impact Fees” in Chapter 1.) The following paragraphs explain how the impact fees calculated in this chapter satisfy those requirements.

Purpose of the Fee: The purpose of the impact fees calculated in this chapter is to provide additional Police Department facilities and vehicles to maintain the existing level of service for those facilities in Brisbane.

Use of the Fee. Impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional Police Department facilities and vehicles to serve new development in the City.

Reasonable Relationship between the Use of the Fee and the Development Type on Which It Is Imposed. The impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional Police Department facilities and vehicles needed to serve new development in Brisbane at the currently existing level of service in terms of the relationship between facility cost and calls for service per year.

Reasonable Relationship between the Need for the Facilities and the Type of Development on Which the Fee Is Imposed. Added calls for service associated with new development will increase the need for Police Department facilities and vehicles in Brisbane. The police impact fees will provide funding for additional Police Department facilities and vehicles needed to maintain the existing level of service in Brisbane.

Reasonable Relationship between the Amount of the Fee and the Facility Cost Attributable to the Development Project. The amount of the police impact fees charged to a development project will depend on the increase in calls for service associated with that project. The fees per unit of development calculated in this chapter for each type of development are based on the estimated average calls per unit per year for that type of development in Brisbane. Thus, the fee charged to a development project reflects the impact of that project on the need for Police Department facilities and vehicles in the City.

Chapter 6. Fire Department Facilities
This chapter calculates impact fees for Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles in Brisbane. Fire protection and emergency response services in Brisbane are provided by the North County Fire Authority (NCFA). Brisbane currently has one fire station which is owned by the City and operated by NCFA. The City and NCFA are planning to construct one additional fire station to serve future development in the City.

Methodology
Unlike the other impact fees calculated in this report, the fire impact fees are calculated using the planned facilities method discussed in Chapter 1. With that method, impact fees are based on the cost of providing additional facilities, apparatus and vehicles needed to serve new development.

The reason that the fire impact fees are calculated using the planned facilities method instead of the existing inventory method used to calculate other impact fees in this study is that impact fees based on the existing inventory method would generate impact fee revenue in excess of the cost of the planned future fire station with its new apparatus and vehicles. NBS also calculated fire impact fees based on the system plan method and found the same to be true in terms of projected impact fee revenue exceeding the cost of planned improvements.

Service Area
Brisbane’s Fire Department facilities serve all development the City. The impact fees calculated in this chapter are intended to apply to all new development except for public facilities, unless the fees for a project are limited by statute or established by a development agreement.

Demand Variable
A “demand variable” is a quantifiable attribute of development that is used in impact fee calculation formulas to represent the impact of development. The demand variable used to calculate impact fees for Fire Department facilities in this chapter is fire calls for service per year.

The fire calls-per-unit-per-year factors used to calculate impact fees for Fire Department facilities in this chapter are shown in Table 2.3 in Chapter 2 and are used in Table 6.4 in to calculate impact fees per unit for each type of development defined in this study.

Level-of-Service Standard
The level-of-service standard used in this study to calculate impact fees for Fire Department facilities is the relationship between the estimated cost of the City’s planned new fire station and its associated apparatus and vehicles and the number of additional calls for service per year that will be generated by future development in the City to buildout. That level of service is defined as a cost per call for service, calculated by dividing the estimated cost of the new fire station and 193

Page 261 of 322 ends

City of Brisbane Page 6-2
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
associated assets by the projected number of calls for service per year to be generated by new development between 2025 and buildout of available land in Brisbane.

This level of service standard is consistent with the use of the planned facilities method discussed in the Methodology section above
In 2021, Section 66016.5 was added to the Mitigation Fee by Act AB 602. That section requires, after January 1, 2022, that the level of service used in an impact fee study must be compared with the existing level of service. If the level used in the impact fee study exceeds the existing level of service, an explanation is required.

In fact, the level-of-service standard discussed above is lower than the existing level of service in terms of cost per call for service, so the impact fees calculated in this chapter present no issue with respect to the statute. The cost per call shown in Table 6.3 on the next page is $21,759.45, whereas the cost per call for the existing level of service based on the value of existing assets and existing calls for service would be $31,080.39.

Planned Fire Department Facilities
Table 6.1 shows key data about Brisbane’s planned future fire station, including estimated cost costs for land and construction. The impact fee cost basis in Table 6.1 is the sum of the land and construction costs.

Table 6.2 on the next page lists the new apparatus and vehicles that will be needed to equip the new fire station. The cost of the additional apparatus and vehicles will be included in the cost basis for the impact fees calculated in this chapter. Table 6.2 also includes the cost of firefighter personal protective equipment for additional firefighters needed to staff a second fire station.

Table 6.3 divides the combined impact fee cost from Tables 6.1 and 6.2 by the projected increase in fire calls for service per year to arrive at a cost per call for service per year.

In the next section, the cost per call from Table 6.3 is used to calculate impact fees per unit for additional Fire Department facilities and other capital assets needed to serve projected future development in Brisbane. Impact fees are calculated for each type of development defined in this study.

Impact Fees per Unit
Table 6.4 showsthe calculation of impact fees per unit for planned new Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles. Those fees are calculated using the cost per call from Table 6.3 and fire calls-for-service-per-unit per year factors from Table 2.1.

Projected Revenue
Table 6.5 projects potential revenue from the fire impact fees. That projection is based on the cost per call from Table 6.3 and the calls per unit per year from Table 2.5.

The projected revenue shown in Table 6.5 is equal to the cost of the planned new fire station and its associated apparatus and vehicles. The projected revenue calculation assumes that future development in the City will occur as forecasted in Chapter 2. It does not account for limits on impact fees set by development agreements for some future projects.

Updating the Fees
The impact fees calculated in this chapter are based on estimated costs for the City’s planned future Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles. We recommend that the fees be reviewed annually and adjusted as needed using the most current cost estimates. The City will be required to update the nexus study at least every eight years, per Government Code Section 66016.5(a)(8). The California Cost Index, published by the Department of General Services and the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index (BCI) can be useful for indexing construction costs over time. The City will be required to update the nexus study at least every eight years, per Government Code Section 66016.5(a)(8).

Planned Improvements
Details regarding expenditure of the fire impact fees can be found in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.

Nexus Summary
As discussed in Chapter 1 of this report, Section 66001 of the Mitigation Fee Act requires that an agency establishing, increasing or imposing impact fees, must make findings to:

Identify the purpose of the fee;
Identify the use of the fee; and,
Determine that there is a reasonable relationship between:

a. The use of the fee and the development type on which it is imposed; b. The need for the facility and the type of development on which the fee is imposed; and
c. The amount of the fee and the facility cost attributable to the development project.

Satisfying those requirements also ensures that the fees meet the “rational nexus” and “rough proportionality” standards enunciated in leading court decisions bearing on impact fees and other exactions. (For more detail, see “Legal Framework for Impact Fees” in Chapter 1.) The following paragraphs explain how the impact fees calculated in this chapter satisfy those requirements.

Purpose of the Fee: The purpose of the impact fees calculated in this chapter is to provide additional Fire Department facilities apparatus and vehicles to maintain the existing level of service for those facilities in Brisbane.

Use of the Fee. Impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles to serve new development in the City.

Reasonable Relationship between the Use of the Fee and the Development Type on Which It Is Imposed. The impact fees calculated in this chapter will be used to pay for additional Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles needed to serve new development in Brisbane at the currently existing level of service in terms of the relationship between facility costs and calls for service per year.

Reasonable Relationship between the Need for the Facilities and the Type of Development on Which the Fee Is Imposed. Added calls for service associated with new development will increase the need for Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles in Brisbane. The fire impact fees will provide funding for additional Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles needed to serve planned future development in Brisbane.

Reasonable Relationship between the Amount of the Fee and the Facility Cost Attributable to the Development Project. The amount of the fire impact fees charged to a development project will depend on the increase in calls for service associated with that project. The fees per unit of development calculated in this chapter for each type of development are based on the estimated average calls per unit per year for that type of development in Brisbane. Thus, the fee charged to a development project reflects the impact of that project on the need for new Fire Department facilities, apparatus and vehicles in the City.

Chapter 7. Implementation
This chapter of the report summarizes requirements for adoption and administration of impact fees, calculated in this study. It was not prepared by an attorney and is not intended as legal advice.

Statutory requirements for the adoption and administration of fees imposed as a condition of development approval (impact fees) are found in the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Sections 66000 et seq.).

Adoption
The form in which development impact fees are enacted should be determined by the City Attorney.

Procedures for adoption of fees subject to the Mitigation Fee Act including notice and public-hearing requirements are specified in Government Code Sections 66016 and 66018. It should be noted that Section 66018 refers to Government Code Section 6062a, which requires that the public hearing notice be published at least twice during the 10-day notice period. However, Section 66016.5 added by AB 602 in 2021 requires that impact fee nexus studies be adopted at a public hearing with at least a 30-day notice.

Government Code Section 66017 provides that fees subject to the Mitigation Fee Act do not become effective until 60 days after final action by the governing body.

Actions establishing or increasing fees subject to the Mitigation Act require certain findings, as set forth in Government Code Section 66001 and discussed in Chapter 1 of this report.

Administration
The California Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Sections 66000 et seq.) mandates procedures for administration of impact fee programs, including collection and accounting, reporting, and refunds. References to code sections in the following paragraphs pertain to the California Government Code.

Notices and Statute of Limitations. Section 66006 (f) provides that a local agency, at the time it imposes a fee for public improvements on a specific development project, "... shall identify the public improvement that the fee will be used to finance." The required notification could refer to the capital improvement plan that must now be adopted with each new impact fee nexus study.

Section 66020 (d) (1) requires that the agency, at the time it imposes an impact fee, provide a written statement of the amount of the fee and written notice of a 90-day period during which the imposition of the fee can be protested. Failure to protest imposition of the fee during that period may deprive the fee payer of the right to subsequent legal challenge.

Section 66022 (a) provides a separate procedure for challenging the establishment of an impact fee.

Such challenges must be filed within 120 days of enactment.

Collection of Fees. Section 66007, as amended by SB 937 in 2024, provides that, with some exceptions, a local agency shall not require payment of impact fees by developers of residential development projects prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy, or first temporary certificate of occupancy, whichever occurs first. That provision does not apply if construction of the 198

Page 266 of 322 ends

City of Brisbane Page 7-2
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
residential development does not begin within five years of the date upon which the building permit is issued.

An exception that allows utility service fees to be collected when an application for service is received, is now limited to the cost of “connection activities.” Local agencies may require payment of fees prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy under certain conditions, including if the fees are to reimburse the agency for expenditures previously made, unless the project reserves at least 49% of residential units for occupancy by lower income households. For such projects, the local agency may require posting of a performance bond or letter of credit from a federally insured depository institution to guarantee payment when the fees are eligible for collection.

In cases where the fees are not collected upon issuance of building permits, Sections 66007 (d) (1) and (2) provide that the City may require the property owner to execute a contract to pay the fee, and to record that contract as a lien against the property until the fees are paid. The local agency may not charge interest or other fees on any amounts deferred pursuant to Section 66007.

If a residential development contains more than one dwelling, the local agency may determine whether the fees or charges described shall be paid on a pro rata basis for each dwelling when it receives its certificate of occupancy, on a pro rata basis when a certain percentage of the dwellings have received their certificate of occupancy, or on a lump-sum basis when all the dwellings in the development receive their certificate of occupancy.

Statutory restrictions on the time at which fees may be collected do not apply to non-residential development.

Earmarking and Expenditure of Fee Revenue. Section 66006 (a) mandates that fees be deposited “with other fees for the improvement in a separate capital facilities account or fund in a manner to avoid any commingling of the fees with other revenues and funds of the local agency, except for temporary investments, and expend those fees solely for the purpose for which the fee was collected.” Section 66006 (a) also requires that interest earned on the fee revenues be placed in the capital account and used for the same purpose.

The language of the law is not clear as to whether depositing fees "with other fees for the improvement" refers to a specific capital improvement or a class of improvements (e.g., street improvements). Common practice is to maintain separate funds or accounts for impact fee revenues by facility category (i.e., streets, park improvements), but not for individual projects.

Impact Fee Exemptions, Reductions, and Waivers. In the event that a development project is found to have no impact on facilities for which impact fees are charged, such project must be exempted from the fees.

If a project has characteristics that will make its impacts on a particular public facility or infrastructure system significantly and permanently smaller than the average impact used to calculate impact fees in this study, the fees should be reduced accordingly to meet the requirement that there must be a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed. The fee reduction is required if the fee is not proportional to the impact of the development on relevant public facilities. 199

City of Brisbane Page 7-3
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
In some cases, an agency may desire to voluntarily waive or reduce impact fees that would otherwise apply to a project as a way of promoting goals such as affordable housing or economic development.

Such a waiver or reduction is within the discretion of the governing body but may not result in increased costs to other development projects. So, the effect of such policies is that the lost revenue must be made up from sources other than impact fees.

Credit for Improvements Provided by Developers. If the City requires a developer, as a condition of project approval, to dedicate land or construct facilities or improvements for which impact fees are charged, the City should ensure that the impact fees are adjusted so that the overall contribution by the developer does not exceed the impact created by the development.

In the event that a developer voluntarily offers to dedicate land, or construct facilities or improvements in lieu of paying impact fees, the City may accept or reject such offers and may negotiate the terms under which such an offer would be accepted. Excess contributions by a developer may be offset by reimbursement agreements.

Credit for Existing Development. If a project involves replacement, redevelopment or intensification of previously existing development, impact fees should be applied only to the portion of the project that represents a net increase in demand for relevant City facilities, applying the measure of demand used in this study to calculate that impact fee.

Annual Report. Section 66006 (b) (1) requires that once each year, within 180 days of the close of the fiscal year, the local agency must make available to the public the following information for each separate account established to receive impact fee revenues:

1. A brief description of the type of fee in the account or fund;

2. The amount of the fee;

3. The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund;

4. The amount of the fees collected and interest earned;

5. Identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures on each improvement, including the percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees;

6. Identification of the approximate date by which the construction of a public improvement will commence, if the City determines sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing of an incomplete public improvement;

7. A description of each inter-fund transfer or loan made from the account or fund, including interest rates, repayment dates, and a description of the improvement on which the transfer or loan will be expended;

8. The amount of any refunds or allocations made pursuant to Section 66001, paragraphs (e) and (f).

The annual report must be reviewed by the City Council at its next regularly scheduled public meeting, but not less than 15 days after the statements are made public, per Section 66006 (b) (2).

Five-Year Findings and Refunds under the Mitigation Fee Act. Prior to 1996, The Mitigation Fee Act required that a local agency collecting impact fees was required to expend or commit impact fee 200

Page 268 of 322 ends

City of Brisbane Page 7-4
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
revenue within five years or make findings to justify a continued need for the money. Otherwise, those funds had to be refunded. SB 1693, adopted in 1996 as an amendment to the Mitigation Fee Act, changed that requirement in material ways.

Now, Section 66001 (d) requires that, for the fifth fiscal year following the first deposit of any impact fee revenue into an account or fund as required by Section 66006 (b), and every five years thereafter, the local agency shall make all of the following findings for any fee revenue that remains unexpended, whether committed or uncommitted:

1. Identify the purpose to which the fee will be put;

2. Demonstrate the reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged;

3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing of incomplete improvements for which impact fees are to be used;

4. Designate the approximate dates on which the funding necessary to complete financing of those improvements will be deposited into the appropriate account or fund.

Those findings are to be made in conjunction with the annual reports discussed above. If such findings are not made as required by Section 66001, the local agency could be required to refund the moneys in the account or fund, per Section 66001 (d).

Once the agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on incomplete improvements for which impact fee revenue is to be used, it must, within 180 days of that determination, identify an approximate date by which construction of the public improvement will be commenced (Section 66001 (e)). If the agency fails to comply with that requirement, it must refund impact fee revenue in the account according to procedures specified in Section 66001 (d).

For a useful discussion of the foregoing requirements, see “The Mitigation Fee Act’s Five-Year Findings Requirement: Beware Costly Pitfalls” by Glen Hansen, Senior Counsel, Abbott and Kindermann, and Rick Jarvis, Managing Partner, Jarvis, Fay and Gibson, presented at the 2022 League of California Cities City Attorneys Spring Conference.

Audit Requests. Section 66023 provides that any person may request an audit to determine whether any fee or charge levied by a local agency exceeds the amount reasonably necessary to cover the cost of any product, public facility, as defined in Section 66000, or service provided by the local agency. The legislative body of the local agency may retain an independent auditor to conduct the audit but is not required to conduct an audit if an audit has been performed for the same fee within the previous 12 months.

The agency shall retain an independent auditor to conduct an audit only if the person who requests the audit deposits with the local agency the amount of the local agency’s reasonable estimate of the cost of the independent audit. At the conclusion of the audit, the local agency shall reimburse unused sums, if any, or the requesting person shall pay the local agency the excess of the actual cost of the audit over the amount that was deposited.

However, if the local agency fails to comply with the annual report requirement of Section 66006 following the establishment, increase or imposition of a fee, but requires payment of that fee in 201

Page 269 of 322 ends

City of Brisbane Page 7-5
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
connection with the approval of a development project for three consecutive years, the agency shall not require a deposit for the independent audit and shall pay the cost of the audit.

Indexing of Impact Fees. Impact fees calculated in this report are based on current costs and should be adjusted periodically to account for changes in the cost of facilities or other capital assets that will be funded by those fees. That adjustment is intended to account for escalation in costs for land, construction, vehicles and other relevant capital assets. The California Construction Cost Index published by the Department of General Services and the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index (BCI) are useful for indexing construction costs. Where land costs are covered by an impact fee or in-lieu fee, land costs should be adjusted based on changes in local land prices. Estimated costs for vehicles and equipment can be based on vendor quotes.

Requirements Imposed by AB 602
This section repeats information about AB 602 which is also included in Chapter 1. In 2021, the California Legislature passed AB 602 and the Governor signed it into law. AB 602 creates some new requirements for impact fees that went into effect in 2022. The new law amends Government Code Section 65940.1 and adds Section 66016.5 to impose the following requirements:
1) A city, county or special district that has an internet website shall post on its website:
a) A current written schedule of fees, exactions and affordability requirements applicable to a proposed housing development project, and shall present that information in a manner that identifies the fees, exactions and affordability requirements that apply to each parcel and the fees that apply to each new water and sewer utility connection b) All zoning ordinances and development standards and specifying the zoning, design and development standards that apply to each parcel
c) A list of the information that will be required from any applicant for a development project, as specified in Government Code Section 69540
d) The current and five previous annual fee reports required by Government Code Section 66006 and Subsection 66013 (d).
e) An archive of impact fee nexus studies, cost of service studies or equivalent conducted on or after January 1, 2018.
2) The above information shall be updated within 30 days of any changes 3) A City or County shall request from a development proponent, upon issuance of a certificate of occupancy or final inspection, the total amount of fees and exactions associated with the project for which the certificate is issued. That information must be posted on the website and updated at least twice a year.
4) Before adoption of an impact fee, an impact fee nexus study shall be adopted. 5) When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and explain why the new level of service is appropriate
202

City of Brisbane Page 7-6
Public Facilities Impact Fee Study
October 10, 2025
6) If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local agency shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of the fees collected under the original fee.
7) A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of the proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee proportionately to the square footage if the proposed units of the development shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. A nexus study is not required to comply with this requirement if the agency makes certain findings outlined in the statute.
8) Large jurisdictions as defined in Section 53559.1 (d) of the Health and Safety Code (counties of 250,000 or more and cities in those counties) shall adopt a capital improvement plan as part of a nexus study.
9) All studies shall be adopted at a public hearing with at least 30-day's notice, and the local agency shall notify any member of the public that requests notice of intent to begin an impact fee nexus study of the date of the hearing.
10) Studies shall be updated at least every eight years, beginning on January 1, 2022.

Training and Public Information
Effective administration of an impact fee program requires considerable preparation and training. It is important that those responsible for collecting the fees, and for explaining them to the public, understand both the details of the fee program and its supporting rationale.

It is also useful to pay close attention to handouts that provide information to the public regarding impact fees. Impact fees should be clearly distinguished from other fees, such as user fees for application processing, and the purpose and use of particular impact fees should be made clear.

Finally, anyone responsible for accounting, capital budgeting, or project management for projects involving impact fees must be fully aware of the restrictions placed on the expenditure of impact fee revenues. Fees must be expended for the purposes identified in the impact fee nexus study in which they were calculated, and the City must be able to show that funds have been properly expended. 203

City Council Staff Report
Meeting Date: March 5, 2026
From: Lisa Macias, Police Chief
Subject: Receive Security Update on Flock Cameras
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council receive this informational report providing an update regarding privacy concerns on recent statewide misuse of the ALPR systems in neighboring communities and the safeguards in place within the Brisbane Police Department to protect privacy and maintain program integrity. Staff has published a statement outlining the Brisbane Police Departments privacy safeguards related to the use of Automated License Plate Reader Technology which is included as Attachment 1.

Background
Over the past several months, there has been increased public discussion regarding the use of Automated License Readers (ALPR) technology, particularly involving the vendor FLOCK Safety.

Several cities have recently chosen to suspend their ALPR program while they examine concerns related to data access and potential misuse by Federal Agencies along with Out-ofState Law Enforcement Agency access. Currently, the ALPR system is used by law enforcement agencies throughout the state to assist in locating stolen vehicles, identifying vehicles associated with serious crimes, locating missing people, and supporting active investigations.

Discussion
Some of the cities have reported that the misuse of their data was a result of not properly setting up the privacy protection and safeguards that govern the systems’ operation. Following these recent concerns, to reinforce public confidence, staff immediately conducted a complete review of our ALPR system to ensure all privacy protections and sharing limitations were properly configured. Staff confirmed that our agency’s settings were set to prevent unauthorized out-of-state- and federal access and are fully consistent with California law Senate Bill 34, establishing clear requirements for the responsible use of the license plate reader data, including limiting its use to legitimate law enforcement purposes, prohibiting the sharing of ALPR data with federal agencies, restricting access to authorized personnel only. Brisbane’s ALPR program has always adhered to strong data security, retention and audit practices.

In addition to system access controls, our department performs formal monthly ALPR data audits as an added layer of accountability. Audit reviews include activity logs, case-related query, and verification that all data access and sharing practices comply with adopted policy and statutory requirements. Moving forward, staff will review weekly, all privacy protections

Page 281 of 322 ends

and system safeguards to ensure they remain properly configured and fully compliant with policy and state law. The Brisbane Police Department’s ALPR Policy is included as Attachment

2. Considering the recent concern involving the privacy setting configuration, FLOCK has disabled the nation-wide sharing function on the ALPR dashboard settings, to avoid agencies from inadvertently enabling this feature in the future. The agencies that we currently share data information with is included as Attachment 3.

ALPR Investigative tool -Crime Reduction
Since the installation of the ALPR system, Brisbane has experienced a substantial reduction in vehicle related crime. In the first year of deployment, the city saw a 50 percent decrease in reported stolen vehicle incidents, that reduction has decreased year after year. For context, Brisbane recorded 30 stolen vehicles in 2021, after deployment of the ALPR program, in mid2022, our number dropped to 16, and in 2023 to 9, 2024 to 4 and in 2025, we had 2 reported stolen vehicles.

Beyond crime reduction, ALPR technology has proven to be a valuable deterrent, a force multiplier for a small department. ALPR alerts officers when stolen vehicles or vehicles linked to criminal investigations enter our jurisdiction, enabling officers to respond proactively and prevent potential victimization of our residents. It has also become an important investigative tool that has assisted us in solving crimes and supporting victims while operating within strict privacy boundaries-for instance, it was through the ALPR that we were able to identify the suspect involved in a fatal hit and run in the 3800 block of Bayshore Blvd last year. Maintaining community trust is paramount to City staff and the Brisbane Police Department.

While ALPR has proven to be a valuable investigative tool that has supported stolen vehicles recovery, notification, and crime reduction, it’s use must remain lawful, limited, transparent, and accountable. The department remains committed to balancing public safety needs with privacy protection.

Fiscal Impact
None.

Brisbane Police Department Reaffirms Privacy Safeguards in Automated License Readers
Widespread media coverage has prompted questions about the security of Flock Cameras (Automated License Plate Readers), utilized by numerous Bay Area Cities including Brisbane.

The Brisbane Police Department conducted a comprehensive review of our ALPR system to confirm that all privacy protections, access restrictions, and data-sharing safeguards are properly configured and compliant with California law (SB 34).

This review confirmed that access by Federal agencies, including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and out-of-state law enforcement agencies was appropriately restricted in our Flock Cameras at the time of setup and has remained appropriately restricted.

Though you may have heard about several California cities having data accessed, the reported issues may stem from systems not being properly configured with the proper privacy controls and safeguards.

The City of Brisbane and the Brisbane Police Department are committed to ensuring privacy controls are always in place.
_______________________________
ALPR data collected in Brisbane is retained for no more than 30 days unless needed for Police Department investigative purposes. Data older than 30 days is automatically purged from the system.

This limited retention period is a key safeguard that supports public safety while protecting individual privacy.

Senate Bill 34. establishes clear requirements for the responsible use of license plate reader data, including limiting its use to legitimate law enforcement purposes, restricting access to authorized personnel, requiring strong security and audit practices, and prohibiting the sharing of ALPR data with Federal agencies. Brisbane’s ALPR program has consistently adhered to these requirements.

The Brisbane Police Department also maintains strict accountability measures. All ALPR usage is subject to monthly internal and external audits to ensure searches and access comply with applicable laws and departmental policy. Each month, audit results are formally documented and attested to the Chief of Police through a written audit attestation process.

Brisbane’s service agreement with Flock Safety reflects the scope and limitations approved by the City Council. The City of Brisbane owns and controls its data. The Brisbane Police Department does not share ALPR data with federal agencies, including ICE, and has never done so. Our policies, contractual terms, and system settings are aligned to ensure these restrictions remain enforced.

Public trust is essential, and safeguarding personal data is a responsibility we take extremely seriously.

The Brisbane Police Department remains committed to transparency, accountability, and strict adherence to the privacy protections entrusted to us by our community. See our Transparency Portal to see the organizations granted access to Brisbane PD data.

We will continue to monitor developments statewide, regularly review our policies, and keep the community informed. Moving forward, we remain committed to staying at the forefront of software upgrades and ongoing user education to ensure our team utilizes this technology with the highest level of proficiency and security. If you have questions about Brisbane’s ALPR program or would like additional information, please contact Chief Lisa Macias at (415) 508-2177 or Commander Mario Garcia at (415) 508-2178.

The Brisbane Police Department also plans to provide an oral update to the City Council at the Thursday, March 5 Council meeting at 6:30 PM. Residents with questions or concerns are encouraged to attend, either in person or online via Zoom at brisbaneca.org/cc-zoom. 4

Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs)
Copyright Lexipol, LLC 2022/06/21, All Rights Reserved.

Published with permission by Brisbane Police Department ***DRAFT*** Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) - 3 (d) No member of this department shall operate ALPR equipment or access ALPR data without first completing department-approved training.
(e) If practicable, the officer should verify an ALPR response through the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (CLETS) before taking enforcement action that is based solely on an ALPR alert. Once an alert is received, the operator should confirm that the observed license plate from the system matches the license plate of the observed vehicle. Before any law enforcement action is taken because of an ALPR alert, the alert will be verified through a CLETS inquiry via MDC or through Dispatch.

Members will not take any police action that restricts the freedom of any individual based solely on an ALPR alert unless it has been validated. Because the ALPR alert may relate to a vehicle and may not relate to the person operating the vehicle, officers are reminded that they need to have reasonable suspicion and/or probable cause to make an enforcement stop of any vehicle. (For example, if a vehicle is entered into the system because of its association with a wanted individual, Officers should attempt to visually match the driver to the description of the wanted subject prior to making the stop or should have another legal basis for making the stop.) (f) Hot Lists. Designation of hot lists to be utilized by the ALPR system shall be made by the ALPR Administrator or his/her designee. Hot lists shall be obtained or compiled from sources as may be consistent with the purposes of the ALPR system set forth in this Policy. Hot lists utilized by the Department's LPR system may be updated by agency sources more frequently than the Department may be uploading them and thus the Department's LPR system will not have access to real time data. Occasionally, there may be errors in the LPR system's read of a license plate. Therefore, an alert alone shall not be a basis for police action (other than following the vehicle of interest). Prior to initiation of a stop of a vehicle or other intervention based on an alert, Department members shall undertake the following:

1. Verification of status on a Hot List. An officer must receive confirmation, from a Brisbane Police Department Communications Dispatcher or other department computer device, that the license plate is still stolen, wanted, or otherwise of interest before proceeding (absent exigent circumstances).

2. Visual verification of license plate number. Officers shall visually verify that the license plate of interest matches identically with the image of the license plate number captured (read) by the LPR, including both the alphanumeric characters of the license plate, state of issue, and vehicle descriptors before proceeding.

Department members alerted to the fact that an observed motor vehicle's license plate is entered as a Hot Plate (hit) in a specific BOLO (be on the lookout) list are required to make a reasonable effort to confirm that a wanted person is actually in the vehicle and/or that a reasonable basis exists before a Department member would have a lawful basis to stop the vehicle.

3. Department members will clear all stops from hot list alerts by indicating the positive ALPR Hit, i.e., with an arrest or other enforcement action. If it is not obvious in the text of the call as to the correlation of the ALPR Hit and the arrest, then the Department member shall update with the Communications Dispatcher and original person and/or a crime analyst inputting the vehicle in the hot list (hit). 7

4. Hot List from teh Stolen Vehicle System will be automatically downloaded into the ALPR system a minimum of once a day with the most current data overwriting the old data.

5. All entries and updates of specific Hot Lists within the ALPR system will be documented by the requesting Department member within the appropriate general offense report. As such, specific Hot Lists shall be approved by the ALPR Administrator (or his/her designee) before initial entry within the ALPR system. The updating of such a list within the ALPR system shall thereafter be accomplished pursuant to the approval of the Department member's immediate supervisor. The hits from these data sources should be viewed as informational; created solely to bring the officers attention to specific vehicles that have been associated with criminal activit

• Related case number
• Short synopsis describing the nature of the originating call (a) Training. No member of this Department shall operate ALPR equipment or access ALPR data without first completing Department-approved training. (b) Login/Log-Out Procedure. To ensure proper operation and facilitate oversight of the ALPR system, all users will be required to have individual credentials for access and use of the systems and/or data, which has the ability to be fully audited.

Permitted/Impermissible Uses. The ALPR system, and all data collected, is the property of the Brisbane Police Department. Department personnel may only access and use the ALPR system for official and legitimate law enforcement purposes consistent with this Policy. The following uses of the ALPR system are specifically prohibited:
(a) Invasion of Privacy: Except when done pursuant to a court order such as a search warrant, is a violation of this Policy to utilize the ALPR to record license plates except those of vehicles that are exposed to public view (e.g., vehicles on a public road or street, or that are on private property but whose license plate(s )are visible from a public road, street, or a place to which members of the public have access, such as the parking lot of a shop or other business establishment). (b) Harassment or Intimidation: It is a violation of this Policy to use the ALPR system to harass and/or intimidate any individual or group.
(c) Use Based on a Protected Characteristic. It is a violation of this policy to use the ALPR system or associated scan files or hot lists solely because of a person's, or group's race, gender, religion, political affiliation, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, or other classification protected by law.
(d) Personal Use: It is a violation of this Policy to use the ALPR system or associated scan files or hot lists for any personal purpose.

City Council Staff Report
Meeting Date: March 5, 2026
From: Jeremy Dennis, City Manager
Subject: Pilot Program for Use of a Camera in the Community Park
Recommendation
Staff recommends adoption of a 90-day Pilot Program for the use of a camera in the Community Park subject to its limited purpose and use of the data recorded as set forth in the Pilot Program.

Background
On December 4, 2025, City Council considered a report from the City Manager regarding thepotential installation of a camera in or near the Community Park. Council member Kern had requested Council consider this item. The installation would be on a trial basis (a Pilot Program), and its purpose would provide new community engagement and real time transparency, provide data that will help inform future park planning, help enhance the user experience at the Park and ensure compliance with State law. See attached December 4, 2025 agenda report (Attachment 1).

After discussion, Council directed staff to prepare a Pilot Program for the use of the camera at the Park for 90 days. At the conclusion of the 90 days, Council would decide whether to continue to have the camera in the Park and the terms and conditions concerning its use and the data obtained from its use.

Staff has drafted the Pilot Program, and it is attached as Attachment 2. Councilmember Kern has reviewed the document and supports its adoption.

Discussion
The purpose of the Pilot Program is limited, i.e., it authorizes the use of a camera in the Community Park for planning, operational, and analytical purposes only; the purpose of the Pilot Program is to improve the City’s understanding of patterns concerning the use of the Park to support data-driven decisions related to park design, amenities, programming, maintenance, and resource allocation.

Camera footage shall be used solely to generate aggregated information, including but not limited to:
• Pedestrian and bicycle counts

Page 296 of 322 ends

• Directional movement patterns
• Time-of-day and day-of-week usage trends
• Where areas of the Park are used and for how long
• Event-based and seasonal usage comparisons
• Overall occupancy and congestion trends
Accordingly, the data collected under this Pilot Program is intended to inform the City of how the park is used daily and during events. More particularly, however, the data will be used to:
• Generate statistics as to park use and trend data
• Analyze where the Park is used
• Provide metrics concerning occupancy and use of the Park • Provide historical comparisons (within the 90 days of the Pilot Program) of park usage Significantly, the data will not be used for:
• Continuous or real-time monitoring
• Security or law enforcement surveillance
• Facial recognition or biometric identification
• Audio recording
The City Manager, in consultation with the Director of Public Works and the Director of Parks and Recreation, will determine where the camera will be placed. The location of the camera will be determined to best support the goal of this Pilot Program. The camera although designed with mobility mounting will remain in the same location during this Pilot Program period.

Only City employees expressly authorized by the City Manager shall access recorded video.

Access shall be limited to employees whose duties relate to planning, parks operations, or program evaluation.

Review of recorded video footage, as distinct from reviewing video for as provided in the previous paragraph, shall be limited on a need-to-know basis and authorized by the City Manager, such as when a documented incident has occurred and no other reasonable means exist to determine basic facts.

All data and any associated video footage shall be protected by administrative, procedural, and technological safeguards. The system requires authenticated access and will maintain audit logs identifying user access by name, date, and time. Access shall be limited to purposes consistent with this Pilot Program.

Any video footage collected under this Pilot Program shall be retained for no more than 30 days, after which it shall be automatically purged, unless the footage:

Page 297 of 322 ends

• Has become evidence in a criminal or civil proceeding, or • Is subject to a lawful discovery request, subpoena, or other legal obligation Although this Pilot Program is not subject to the requirements of State law concerning automatic licensed plate readers, the City has used the principles embodied in State law as guidance for this Pilot Program. State law provides a framework for transparency, defined purpose, limited use, and City Council oversight of public-sector technology and emphasizes data minimization and retention limited to the period necessary to accomplish a legitimate governmental purpose. Consistent with those principles, the City has determined that a 30-day retention period is reasonable, privacy-protective, and sufficient to support the objectives of this Pilot Program.

To the extent that retained video footage is subject to disclosure, the City shall take reasonable steps to protect individual privacy. Images of individuals whose presence is incidental to the reason for retention shall be blurred prior to disclosure, consistent with applicable law.

Information regarding this Pilot Program, including its purpose, scope, and privacy protections, shall be made publicly available. The City may post signage in the Community Park informing the public that recorded footage is being collected for planning purposes.

The Pilot Program shall remain in effect for 90 days. Upon conclusion of the Pilot Program, staff shall evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of the information collected and analyzed and report to the City Council with recommendations regarding continuation, modification, or termination of the Program.

As was pointed out in the prior agenda reports, there are other cameras in the City that capture activities in the City. These include cameras at City Hall and City Hall Annex, the Corporation Yard, the Community pool, the Marina, and at three locations along Main Street.

In addition, the Flock license plate reader cameras are used by the Police Department and the City will be placing cameras on locations on Bayshore Boulevard to monitor traffic.

Fiscal Impact
Verkada, the maker of the camera in question, has agreed to provide the camera at no cost to the City for this 90-day Pilot Program. Should the City Council decide to continue wanting a camera in the Community Park for the purposes described in this report, the Verkada camera and related costs are approximately $6200, with annual costs of about $2100.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 4, 2025
From: Jeremy Dennis, City Manager
Subject: Camera at Community Park Follow-Up
Recommendation
Staff recommend that the City Council receive this staff report regarding the potential installation of a camera near the Community Park, as proposed by Council member Kern.

Background
On September 18, 2025, the City Council discussed a proposal by Council member Kern regarding the installation of a camera at the Community Park (Attachments 1 and 2).

As described previously, Council member Kern introduced this topic after recent incidents at the Community Park, including two cases of vandalism in the bathrooms, and a serious dog attack on another dog.

Per the direction of the Council, staff has met internally and with Council member Kern to further discuss. The City Council also directed that the City Attorney review any action before it comes to the City Council to ensure compliance with state laws.

Discussion
Project Goals/Opportunities
Council member Kern proposes a one-year pilot program, to be managed by the City Manager's Office (CMO) that will:
• Provide New Community Engagement and Real-Time Transparency • Provide Data That Can Inform Future Park Planning
• Increase the user experience at the Community Park
• Ensure compliance with State Law
Key Benefits include:
• Usage Analytics: Accurately capture data on visitor flow, peak times, popular areas, and user demographics.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: September 18, 2025
From: Jeremy Dennis, City Manager
Subject: Discussion – Installation of a Camera at the Community Park Recommendation
Per the request of Councilmember Kern, Staff recommends discussion on the potential installation of cameras at Community Park.

Background
At the September 4, 2025 City Council meeting, Councilmember Kern requested the City Council agendize a discussion regarding the potential installation of cameras at Community Park. Below is a summary of the potential uses of a camera, how other local communities have utilized cameras in their public spaces. And costs associated with such installations.

Examples of Use
Municipalities install cameras for a variety of reasons:
• Increasing the visibility of a public area (such as a webcam that overlooks a park, building or street
• Enhancing public safety/increasing the number of investigative tools in the event of a crime or incident
o Providing deterrence from future criminal activity or incidents • Increasing the visibility of a public infrastructure project’s construction progress • Providing real-time traffic/outdoor facility use updates • Coordinating emergency response coordination/increasing visibility in high-fire areas The City of Brisbane has installed cameras at the following locations:
• City Hall and Annex
• Corpyard
• Community Pool
• Marina
• Right of way location at Main Street and Bayshore Blvd to deter/monitor/investigate illegal dumping
Discussion – Installation of a Camera at the Community Park 9

Page 304 of 322 ends

Case Uses from Local Municipalities
To learn more about the usage of cameras in public spaces, staff surveyed neighboring cities to learn more about their experiences with cameras in community parks. The following information was received:
• Burlingame: Installed four cameras at Washington Park four years ago in response to ongoing concerns regarding graffiti. Staff selected Arlo Pro cameras, as it was a cost effective and simple solution. The camera footage is not accessed publicly, and the Parks Department and Police Department have access to the footage. Burlingame has been able to apprehend individuals who have vandalized the park. The biggest issue was difficulty with Wi-Fi connectivity.
• Millbrae: Installed the Verkada camera system both inside and outside of recreation center along with visibility into Central Park. The cameras are smart cameras that track movement. The Parks and Recreation Department have access to the footage and review footage on an as-needed basis. If needed, clips may be sent to the police department. • Redwood City: Installed different types of cameras throughout the city. Some high end Verkada cameras, and a few simple webcams based on the location. The footage is not publicly accessible.
• South San Francisco: Installed the Verkada camera system along with an Avigilion system.

While the system is not actively monitored, footage is pulled on an as-needed basis. The city does have a Verkada livecam for the aquatic center construction project. You can view it at www.ssf.net/newpool.
• San Carlos: Installed cameras at their parks and public facilities. The city upgraded their cameras to 360 cameras in 2017 for select facilities. The Sherriff’s office is able to review camera footage as necessary and IT staff have permission to review only to determine if the cameras are functioning property. The footage is not publicly accessible. The total project cost was $450,000.

Costs of Various Camera Systems
The use of a public-facing camera system has a direct relationship to the cost of purchase, installation, and subscriptions. In the case of a system intended to bring visibility to an amenity, construction project, or other similar use, a standard webcam system, Webcams are typically consumer grade and used for personal video communication. Many webcams are plug-and-play by utilizing a USB, they have a fixed lens without the ability to zoom or pan. Webcams also are lower resolution (720p to 1080p) with a limited field of view and no built-in streaming protocols. Common webcams include Arlo Pro, Logitech C920, Razer Kiyo, and Microsoft LifeCam. Data may be stored in the cloud and remote access is available. The cost of webcams may range from $50 to over $250 per camera. The City’s webcam purchased to curb illegal Discussion – Installation of a Camera at the Community
10 Park

Page 305 of 322 ends

dumping cost $250 per camera plus a $25 per month subscription fee.

As noted above, some cities utilizing camera systems which have the capability to provide realtime camera feeds. Designated staff may monitor the camera with remote access and view from their smartphones, tablets, or desktops. These systems also allow for centralized control of multiple locations including city halls, police stations, and public parks. The automation feature triggers alerts based on motion, door access, or license plate recognition. While Verkada is widely used, other systems include PTZOptics, Sony SRG series, and Panasonic AW series to name a few.

In gathering cost information, Staff received quotes for two types of cameras provided by Qovo Solutions, Inc. The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Camera has the ability to analyze audio and dispatch law enforcement. Audio triggers may include screaming or a car crash. The camera pans and has the ability to zoom. It is cloud based and costs approximately $9,000 per camera plus $10,000 for installation and an annual licensing fee of $400. The second camera is a traditional dome, fixed camera. While also cloud based, it does not have the ability to zoom or pan and does not have audio. The cost per camera is approximately $16,000 plus $10,000 for installation and a $500 licensing fee.

Best Practice
Best practices when implementing public facing cameras include creation of transparent policies, limiting data retention, restricting access to footage, and complying with any privacy laws.

Should Council wish to proceed, Staff anticipates creating a camera policy based on best practices that also incorporate an auditing component, similar to the audit requirements provided by the Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) policies. The audit allows the Police Commander or the Chief of Police to conduct an audit of ALPR browsing inquiries at least monthly each calendar year. The audit is documented and reviewed by the Chief of Police and retained in a secure location.

Discussion
Staff recommends the City Council weigh the costs and benefits of the various types of camera systems and provide staff direction on whether to continue to explore installation of a camera at Community Park.

Discussion – Installation of a Camera at the Community Park Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact to the City is dependent on the camera system selected.

NEW BUSINESS
H. Discuss the Potential Installation of a Camera at the Community Park City Manager Dennis reported that at the September 4, 2025, City Council meeting, Councilmember Kern requested the City Council agendize a discussion regarding the potential installation of cameras at Community Park. Staff recommend the City Council weigh the costs and benefits of the various types o·f camera systems and provide staff direction on whether to continue to explore installation of a camera at Community Park.

Councilmember Kern shared the four incidents that inspired his request to agendize this item for discussion for a pilot program to install a camera at the Community Park.

After council questions, Al Cordoza commented that cameras in the park can also be used to monitor traffic laws, road congestion, weather problems, and drain issues in the park.

After Council discussion, staff was directed to bring back more information at a future council meeting on the need for a camera in the community park, specifically coming from the Police Chief or Police Commander, and the cost for the camera system needed. Additionally, Staff were directed to publicize this future meeting so the public can weigh in.

PILOT PROGRAM FOR ANALYTIC USE OF A CAMERA IN THE

COMMUNITY PARK
Purpose
The City of Brisbane adopts this Pilot Program to authorize the limited use of a camera in the Community Park for planning, operational, and analytical purposes only. The purpose of the program is to improve the City’s understanding of park usage patterns to support data-driven decisions related to park design, amenities, programming, maintenance, and resource allocation.

Scope and Intended Use
The camera shall be used solely to generate aggregated, non-identifying analytics, including but not limited to:
• Pedestrian and bicycle counts
• Directional movement patterns
• Time-of-day and day-of-week usage trends
• General dwell time and area utilization
• Event-based and seasonal usage comparisons
• Overall occupancy and congestion trends
The data collected under this Pilot Program is intended to inform the city of increasing park usage during events or daily activities.

Camera Capabilities and Limitations
The camera deployed under this Pilot Program is a Verkada CR-63. Although the camera can record video, the City’s authorized use is intentionally limited.

Authorized Uses
• Generation of statistical analytics and trend data
• Heat maps and movement flow analysis
• Occupancy and utilization of metrics
• Historical comparisons (month to month within 90 days) of anonymized park usage Prohibited Uses
• Continuous or real-time monitoring
• Security or law enforcement surveillance
• Facial recognition or biometric identification
• Audio recording
Any functionality inconsistent with the analytics-only purpose of this Pilot Program shall remain disabled or unused (LPR usage)

Location of Camera
The City Manager, in consultation with the Director of Public Works, shall determine the placement of the camera. The location of the camera will be determined to best support the goal of the camera usage. The camera although is designed with mobility mounting, during this pilot period, the camera will remain in the same location.

Authority to Access Data and Video
Only City employees expressly authorized by the City Manager may access analytics data or recorded video. Access shall be limited to employees whose duties relate to planning, parks operations, or program evaluation.

Review of recorded video footage, as distinct from analytics dashboards or reports, shall be limited to a need-to-know basis and authorized by the City Manager, such as when a documented incident has occurred and no other reasonable means exist to determine basic facts.

Data Security
All data and any associated video footage shall be protected by administrative, procedural, and technological safeguards. The system requires authenticated access and will maintain audit logs identifying user access by name, date, and time. Access shall be limited to purposes consistent with this Pilot Program.

Data Retention
Any video footage collected under this Pilot Program shall be retained for no more than 30 days, after which it shall be automatically purged, unless the footage:
• Has become evidence in a criminal or civil proceeding, or • Is subject to a lawful discovery request, subpoena, or other legal obligation Retention Determination
Although this Pilot Program is not subject to the requirements of Assembly Bill 481 or Senate Bill 34, the city has used the principles embodied in those statutes as guidance. Assembly Bill 481 provides a framework for transparency, defined purpose, limited use, and City Council oversight of public-sector technology, while Senate Bill 34 emphasizes data minimization and retention limited to the period necessary to accomplish a legitimate governmental purpose.

Consistent with those principles, the City has determined that a 30-day retention period is reasonable, privacy-protective, and sufficient to support the analytics-only objectives of this Pilot Program.

Privacy Protections
To the extent that retained video footage is subject to disclosure, the City shall take reasonable steps to protect individual privacy. Images of individuals whose presence is incidental to the reason for retention shall be blurred prior to disclosure, consistent with applicable law.

Transparency
Information regarding this Pilot Program, including its purpose, scope, and privacy protections, 24

shall be made publicly available. The city may post signage in the Community Park informing the public that anonymized analytics data is being collected for planning purposes.

Duration and Evaluation
This Pilot Program shall remain in effect for 90 days. Upon conclusion of the Pilot Program, staff shall evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of the analytics collected and report to the City Council with recommendations regarding continuation, modification, or termination. 25

CITY of BRISBANE
Council Subcommittee Update
From February 14th, 2026, to February 27th, 2026

1. Report Out on Subcommittees/Committees
A. Public Art Advisory Committee 2/24 Davis, O’Connell
Staff gave an update on the Alvarado to San Benito Stairway Project to the committee. Staff will do a site walk in the next week as the project wraps up in mid-March.

Next Steps #1: Discuss a Ribbon Cutting at the next meeting.

The Committee reviewed opportunities to incorporate public art into Parcel R, a 1.5 acre City owned site proposed for development along Sierra Point Parkway. They discussed a range of potential design elements that could be integrated into the project, including artist designed seating, gateway signage to welcome visitors, educational or interpretive features, integrated play elements, kinetic sculptures, and other similar installations.

The Committee expressed unanimous support for including public art as part of the site’s development.

Next Steps #1: At a future meeting, the Committee will discuss the specific types of artwork they would support, as well as potential budget allocations.

The committee received more than 50 submissions for the pilot Artful Bench Program and reviewed, discussed, and ranked their top choices. Then they considered which artists should be matched with each project site:
• One new bench at the Mission Blue Center (up to $25K) • One new bench at the Dog Park (up to $25K)
• One new bench at the Community Center (up to $25K)
• Three sets of two benches to be refurbished at the Brisbane Marina ($10K–$50K, depending on how many benches are selected)
For each site, the committee identified two to three artists whose work will be presented to the public for their preference:
• Mission Blue Center: Heilwell & Spitler, Valerie Theiberg • Dog Park: Alexis Gregg, Colin Selig, Eric Lynn
• Brisbane Marina: Angelina Duckett, Chris Granillo, Rebecca Bird For the Community Center, the committee chose to wait, noting that none of the proposals felt like a strong fit for that location at this time.

Next Steps #1: Staff will prepare the language for public outreach and marketing and bring back to the committee for review.
