DRAFT Cost of Services (User Fee) Study Report City of Calimesa, CA Matrix Consulting Group 60
The annual cost to the City for updating their general plan is roughly $124,000. The three most common methodologies for assessing a General Plan Maintenance fee are:

1. Percentage of Building Permit Fee: This means that the general plan maintenance fee is assessed as a percentage of the total building permit fee assessed to a project.

2. Percentage of Valuation: This means that the fee is assessed based upon the total project valuation. Even if the City doesn’t utilize valuation for calculating fees, it still has to collect that information for SMIP and state surcharges and can utilize it to determine the proportionate General Plan impact.

3. Cost Per Square Foot: This means that the fee is assessed based upon the total potential square footage based upon which it would be assessed.

The project team calculated the full cost of the General Plan Fee based upon all three methodologies. The following table shows this calculation:

Table 24: General Plan Maintenance Fee Calculation
Category
Building
Permit Fee Valuation Sq. Ft.

Total Annual Cost $123,901 $123,901 $123,901
General Plan Fee Basis $561,656 $18,491,608 207,219
General Plan Maintenance Fee 22% 0.67% $0.60
The calculated General Plan Maintenance Fee is either 22% of the Building Permit Fee,

0.67% of Building Valuation or $0.60 per square foot. The City has the ability to choose one option of the above to charge as its General Plan Maintenance Fee.

The City of Calimesa currently charges the General Plan Maintenance Fee as 0.142% of valuation, which represents a cost recovery level of 21% (based on the 0.67% valuation methodology).

As part of this analysis, the project team conducted a comparative survey of other local jurisdictions and their assessment of the General Plan Maintenance Fee. Like other comparative efforts, the survey below simply shows the fees charged by the jurisdiction and does not include the basis upon which the other jurisdictions calculated or developed their fee. The following table shows the results of this comparative analysis:

Table 25: General Plan Maintenance Fee – Comparative Survey Jurisdiction Fee Amount
Beaumont
Residential: $50 per DU
Comm / Ind: $0.05 per sq. ft.

Redlands
$0.10 per sq. ft. of New Construction or
Additions > 50% of Existing Floor Area
San Jacinto
Residential: $150 per DU
Comm / Ind: $0.06 per sq. ft.

As the table indicates the current fee charged by jurisdictions varies based upon project type and / or building permit. There are no surveyed jurisdictions that charge the fee as percentage of valuation. The full cost calculated for the City is higher than all the other jurisdictions surveyed. However, similar to other comparative analyses, this only reflects the fee being charged, not necessarily the full cost of those services.

As the City is moving away from valuation, the best option for the City would be to charge the General Plan Maintenance fee as a percentage of the building permit fee. This best captures the level of long-range planning effort needed depending upon the proportional impact of the building projects.
2 Technology Surcharge Fee
A Technology Fee allows the City to support the costs associated with the City’s permitting system, staff time for managing the systems, acquiring the system, mobile devices used for permitting, etc. The City currently assesses this fee as 3.29% of the permit fees.

The project team used knowledge from previous fee studies for cities similar to Calimesa as a way to estimate annual permit-related technology costs. The costs included in this estimate are the capital costs for a permitting system annualized over 25 years, as well as the annual licensing and maintenance cost paid to maintain the permitting system.

The following table shows by cost category the annual cost:

Table 26: Technology Surcharge Fee Cost Components
Cost Category Initial Cost Years Annual Cost
Software System $1,000,000 25 $40,000
Annual Licensing & Maint. $25,000 1 $25,000
Total $65,000
Based upon the items needed to provided development-related services, the annual technology-related costs are approximately $65,000 for the City of Calimesa.

The City currently assesses this fee as 0.043% of the permit valuation and is only applicable on Building Permits. By assessing the fee on valuation, it excludes the other development-related activities that may be part of the City’s future permitting system.

DRAFT Cost of Services (User Fee) Study Report City of Calimesa, CA Matrix Consulting Group 62
Additionally, the most defensible methodology for assessing the fee is based proportionately on the percentage of the permit fee, as the greater the permit fee, the greater the Technology Fee as there is more software utilization and storage space for larger projects.

Therefore, the project team took the total Technology Annual Cost and divided it by the annual fee-related cost associated with Building, Planning, Engineering, and Fire. The following table shows this calculation:

Table 27: Technology Fee Calculation
Category Amount
Total Technology Annual Cost $65,000
Total Projected Development Annual Cost $1,221,368
Technology Fee as % of Permit Fee 5%
Based upon this calculation, the City’s full cost Technology fee would be 5% of the permit fee. Therefore, if a permit fee was $100, the Technology fee collected would be $5; whereas if a permit fee was $1,000; the Technology fee collected would be $50. This type of structure enables the Technology fee to be more proportionately distributed based upon the projects and their impact upon the system.

As part of this analysis, the project team conducted a comparative survey of other local jurisdictions and their assessment of a Technology Fee. Like other comparative efforts, the survey below simply shows the fees charged by the jurisdiction and does not include the basis upon which the other jurisdictions calculated or developed their fee. The following table shows the results of this comparative analysis:

Table 28: Technology Fee – Comparative Survey
Jurisdiction Fee Amount
Banning 2.5% of Permit Fees
Beaumont 3.29% of Permit Fees
Hemet 5% of Permit Fees
Redlands 2% of Permit Fees
San Jacinto 1% of Permit Fees (Max $50)
Of the surveyed jurisdictions, all charge their technology fee as a percentage of the permit fee and do not utilize valuation as the basis. The City of Hemet at 5% most closely matches the City’s full cost calculated at 5%.

3 Surcharge Funds
It is a best practice to collect and account for General Plan Maintenance and Technology surcharges in separate accounts. The City of Calimesa already follows this best practice and should continue to collect these fees separately to help fund future activities.

13. Cost Recovery Considerations
The following sections provide guidance regarding how and where to increase fees, determining annual update factors, and developing cost recovery policies and procedures.
1 Fee Adjustments
This study has documented and outlined on a fee-by-fee basis where the City is under and over collecting for its fee-related services. City and Department management will now need to review the results of the study and adjust fees in accordance with Departmental and City philosophies and policies. The following dot points outline the major options the City has in adjusting its fees.
• Over-Collection: Upon review of the fees that were shown to be over-collecting for costs of services provided, the City should reduce the current fee to be in line with the full cost of providing the service.
• Full Cost Recovery: For fees that show an under-collection for costs of services provided, the City may decide to increase the fee to full cost recovery immediately. • Phased Increase: For fees with significantly low-cost recovery levels, or which would have a significant impact on the community, the City could choose to increase fees gradually over a set period of time.

The City will need to review the results of the fee study and associated cost recovery levels and determine how best to adjust fees. While decisions regarding fees that currently show an over-recovery are fairly straight forward, the following subsections, provide further detail on why and how the City should consider either implementing Full Cost Recovery or a Phased Increase approach to adjusting its fees. 1 Full Cost Recovery
Based on the permit or review type, the City may wish to increase the fee to cover the full cost of providing services. Certain permits may be close to cost recovery already, and an increase to full cost may not be significant. Other permits may have a more significant increase associated with full cost recovery.

Increasing fees associated with permits and services that are already close to full cost recovery can potentially bring a Department’s overall cost recovery level higher. Often,

DRAFT Cost of Services (User Fee) Study Report City of Calimesa, CA Matrix Consulting Group 65
these minimal increases can provide necessary revenue to counterbalance fees which are unable to be increased.

The City should consider increasing fees for permits for which services are rarely engaged to full cost recovery. These services often require specific expertise and can involve more complex research and review due to their infrequent nature. As such, setting these fees at full cost recovery will ensure that when the permit or review is requested, the City is recovering the full cost of its services.
2 Phased Increases
Depending on current cost recovery levels some current fees may need to be increased significantly in order to comply with established or proposed cost recovery policies. Due to the type of permit or review, or the amount by which a fee needs to be increased, it may be best for the City to use a phased approach to reaching their cost recovery goals.

As an example, you may have a current fee of $200 with a full cost of $1,000, representing 20% cost recovery. If the current policy is 80% cost recovery, the current fee would need to increase by $600, bringing the fee to $800, in order to be in compliance. Assuming this particular service is something the City provides quite often, and affects various members of the community, an instant increase of $600 may not be feasible. Therefore, the City could take a phased approach, whereby it increases the fee annually over a set period until cost recovery is achieved.

Raising fees over a set period of time not only allows the City to monitor and control the impact to applicants, but also ensure that applicants have time to adjust to significant increases. Continuing with the example laid out above, the City could increase the fee by $150 for the next four years, spreading out the increase. Depending on the desired overall increase, and the impact to applicants, the City could choose to vary the number of years by which it chooses to increase fees. However, the project team recommends that the City not phase increases for periods greater than five years, as that is the maximum window for which a comprehensive fee assessment should be completed. 2 Annual Adjustments
Conducting a comprehensive analysis of fee-related services and costs annually would be quite cumbersome and costly. The general rule of thumb for comprehensive fee analyses is between three and five years. This allows for jurisdictions to ensure they account for organizational changes such as staffing levels and merit increases, as well as process efficiencies, code or rule changes, or technology improvements.

DRAFT Cost of Services (User Fee) Study Report City of Calimesa, CA Matrix Consulting Group 66
Developing annual update mechanisms allow jurisdictions to maintain current levels of cost recovery, while accounting for increases in staffing or expenditures related to permit services. The two most common types of update mechanisms are Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) factors. The following points provide further detail on each of these mechanisms.
• COLA / Personnel Cost Factor: Jurisdictions often provide their staff with annual salary adjustments to account for increases in local cost of living. These increases are not tied to merit or seniority, but rather meant to offset rising costs associated with housing, gas, and other livability factors. Sometimes these factors vary depending on the bargaining group of a specific employee. Generally, these factors are around two or three percent annually.
• CPI Factor: A common method of increasing fees or cost is to look at regional cost indicators, such as the Consumer Price Index. These factors are calculated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, put out at various intervals within a year, and are specific to states and regions.

The City of Calimesa should review its current options internally (COLA) as well as externally (CPI) to determine which option better reflects the goals of the Department and the City. If choosing a CPI factor, the City should outline which CPI should be used, including specific region, and adoption date. If choosing an internal factor, again, the City should be sure to specify which factor if multiple exist. 3 Policies and Procedures
This study has identified areas where the City is under-collecting the cost associated with providing services. This known funding gap is therefore being subsidized by other City revenue sources.

Development of cost recovery policies and procedures will serve to ensure that current and future decision makers understand how and why fees were determined and set, as well as provide a road map for ensuring consistency when moving forward. The following subsections outline typical cost recovery levels and discuss the benefits associated with developing target cost recovery goals and procedures for achieving and increasing cost recovery.

1 Typical Cost Recovery
The Matrix Consulting Group has extensive experience in analyzing local government operations across the United States and has calculated typical cost recovery ranges. The following table outlines these cost recovery ranges by major service area.

Table 29: Typical Cost Recovery Ranges by Major Service Area Service Areas Typical Cost Recovery Ranges
City Clerk 20-40%
Finance 20-40%
Fire 50-80%
Building 80-100%
Planning 50-80%
Public Works 70-100%
Information presented in the table above is based on the Matrix Consulting Group’s experience in analyzing local governments’ operations across the United States and within California and reflects typical cost recovery ranges observed by local adopting authorities. The following graph depicts how Calimesa compares to industry cost recovery range standards.

Public Works and Building are the only two departments within their typical cost recovery ranges. Finance and Fire are lower and City Clerk and Planning are higher. Overall, 100%

addressing the proposed modifications within each department and evaluating increases or decreases to fees where appropriate will result in aligning these departments within typical cost recovery ranges.
2 Development of Cost Recovery Policies and Procedures
The City should review the current cost recovery levels and adopt a formal policy regarding cost recovery. This policy can be general in nature and can apply broadly to the City as a whole, or to each department and division specifically. A department specific cost recovery policy would allow the City to better control the cost recovery associated with different types of services being provided and the community benefit received.

Appendix – Comparative Survey
As part of the Cost of Services (User Fee) study for the City of Calimesa, Matrix Consulting Group conducted a comparative survey of user fees. The City identified eight jurisdictions to be included in the comparative survey: Banning, Beaumont, Canyon Lake, Hemet, Loma Linda, Redlands, San Jacinto, and Yucaipa.

While this report will provide the City with a reasonable estimate and understanding of the true costs of providing services, many jurisdictions also wish to consider the local “market rates” for services as a means for assessing what types of changes in fee levels their community can bear. However, a comparative survey does not provide adequate information regarding the relationship of a jurisdiction’s cost to its fees.

The following sections detail various factors to consider when reviewing comparative survey results, as well as graphical comparisons of current fees and total calculated costs for various permits issued or services provided by the City. 1 Economic Factors
To provide additional context to the comparative survey information, the project team collected economic factors for the jurisdictions included. Three important economic factors to consider when comparing fees across multiple jurisdictions are: population, budget, and workforce size. As these factors impact how and when fees are administered. As a jurisdiction with a smaller population may choose to not charge a fee, likewise, a smaller workforce size may inhibit their ability to administer a fee. The following tables rank each jurisdiction from smallest to largest for each of these economic factors:

Overall, the City of Calimesa is on the lowest end for each economic factor when compared to surveyed jurisdictions. Canyon Lake has the closest comparable economic factors, followed by the City of Yucaipa.
2 Recency Factor
While the above comparative information can provide some perspective when paralleling Calimesa’s fees with surveyed jurisdictions, other key factors to consider are when a jurisdiction’s fee schedule was last updated and when the last comprehensive analysis was undertaken. The following tables detail when each surveyed jurisdiction last conducted a fee analysis and when they last updated their fee schedule.

Five of the eight jurisdictions surveyed have completed fee studies in the last five years.

With the exception of Redlands and San Jacinto, all other jurisdictions have updated their fee schedules with a CPI or other growth factor within the last two years.

It is important to note that even though jurisdictions may have conducted fee studies, fees are not always adopted at full cost recovery. The comparative results only show the adopted fee for the surveyed jurisdictions not necessarily the full cost associated with the comparable service.
3 Additional Factors
Along with keeping the statistics outlined in the previous sections in mind, the following issues should also be noted regarding the use of market surveys in the setting of fees for service:
9 The City of Redlands is currently undergoing a fee study and is looking to adopt new fees and the study next year.

DRAFT Cost of Services (User Fee) Study Report City of Calimesa, CA Matrix Consulting Group 72
• Each jurisdiction and its fees are different, and many are not based on the actual cost of providing services as various policy decision may subsidize services. • The same “fee” with the same name may include more or less steps or subactivities. In addition, jurisdictions provide varying levels of service and have varying levels of costs associated with providing services such as staffing levels, salary levels, indirect overhead costs, etc.

In addition to the issues noted, market surveys can also run the risk of creating a confusing excess of data that will obscure rather than clarify policy issues. Because each jurisdiction is different, the Matrix Consulting Group recommends that the information contained in the market comparison of fees be used as a secondary decision-making tool, rather than a tool for establishing an acceptable price point for services. 4 Comparative Survey Results
As part of this study, the project team conducted a survey of how the City’s current user fees and calculated full cost compare to other similarly sized and regionally located jurisdictions. The following subsections provide a comparative look at several fee-related services provided by the City.
1 Business License – New and In-Town
Finance proposed the addition of a Business License application fee for business in-town looking to acquire a new business license. Through this study, the project team calculated the full cost of the application to be $148. The following graph shows how Calimesa’s full cost compares to surveyed jurisdictions.

With the exception of Canyon Lake which charges $151 for a new business license application, the calculated full cost at $148 is the highest; and both are above the jurisdictional average of $91. Hemet and San Jacinto charge their fee differently. Hemet charges an application fee ranging from $19 to $254, depending on the type of business applying for the license. San Jacinto charges an annual fee based on the number of fulltime employees which is then added to an $80 base fee. 2 SFR Fire Sprinkler Plan Review & Inspection: 10 Heads, New Fire proposed the addition of a fee to plan review and inspect a new, 10 head, fire sprinkler system at a single-family residence. Through this study, the project team calculated the full cost of the plan review ($433) and inspection ($351) to be $784. The following graph shows how Calimesa’s full cost compares to surveyed jurisdictions. The dark blue represents plan check, while the light blue represents inspection.

The calculated full cost is above the jurisdictional average of $509, and in line with the fee charged by the City of Yucaipa ($709). Loma Linda and Hemet charge the most at $975 and $920, respectively. Loma Linda and Yucaipa charge a single fee for plan check and inspection.
3 Above Ground Storage Tank Plan Review & Inspection
Fire proposed a fee to plan review and inspect an aboveground storage tank. Through this study, the project team calculated the full cost of the plan review ($433) and inspection ($562) to be $995.
