PUBLIC HEARINGS
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Robin Scattini, Finance Manager
APPROVED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
SUBJECT:

Resolution 2022-041 adopting Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Fee schedule for Administrative Services, Community Planning and Building, Public Safety and Public Works Services
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 2022-041 adopting the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Fee Schedule for Administrative Services, Community Planning and Building, Public Safety and Public Works Services.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

In 2015, the City hired Revenue and Cost Specialists, LLC ("RCS") to prepare a cost of services study ("Study"). The study calculated the cost to the City associated with providing certain types of services to specific customers, or users, of the services. Examples of charges for services include design plan review, tree removal permits and the processing of a business license. These services have an identifiable user that receives a direct benefit from the service, and thus, the City may legally recover its cost of providing the service from the user through a fee or charge for service.

The purpose of this agenda item is for Council to adopt the proposed master fee schedule for the upcoming fiscal year (Fiscal Year 2022-2023). An update to the Study occurred in March 2020 resulting in adjustments to the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 fees to reflect the cost of providing services. Given the recent timing of that comprehensive study, FY 2021-22 fees were kept unchanged. This year, in line with the City’s fiscal policy C94-01, the 2022-2023 proposed fee schedule includes an annual adjustment of 4.2% based upon the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward area Consumer Price Index for all items (CPI) for the time period from December 2020 to December 2021.

In the upcoming year staff intends to refresh the cost of services study in line with City fiscal policy. That will be an opportune time to also bring, independent of the attached User Fee schedules, other fees the City charges, such as facility rental fees, and parking (contractor parking permits, tour bus parking, and Norton Garage rental).

FISCAL IMPACT:

Some development fees, such as land use approval and processing fees, building permit and inspections and zoning and use permits are not effective until 60 days after Council adoption. Therefore, the proposed fees become effective on July 3, 2022. The Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Proposed Budget includes $2.2 million in revenue generated from charges for services. Cost recovery for services allows for a more equitable financing of these services as the specific user pays for the service rather than other General Fund revenues such as property tax, sales and use tax and transient occupancy tax subsidizing the cost of the service for the individual user.

PRIOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION:

Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 fee schedule on May 4, 2021.

Dear Council Members,
The following three statements of “evidence” (appearing in italics below) were submitted by Attorney Lombardo in his letter to you of May 2, 2022. Please consider the following factual corrections (appearing in plain text below each of the three statements). - Victoria Beach, 2 May 2022
Lombardo statement #1: City staff can confirm that a sidewalk adjacent to the Fountain's home in the area between the wall of the Fountain's home and the grapestake fence could never be legally constructed with a sidewalk without violating the Americans with Disability Act.

INCORRECT. Just as in the approved 8th Avenue plan below and throughout hilly cities like San Francisco, circulation paths and sidewalks in rights of way are allowed to follow the general grade of the road. Because of that, they will often exceed the typical 8.333% ADA maximum. The regulations below address these situations.
“…where pedestrian access routes are contained within a street or highway right-of-way, the grade of pedestrian access routes shall not exceed the general grade established for the adjacent street or highway.”
(see U.S. Access Board PROWAG R-302.5 and California DOT 4.3.4 (2)) Lombardo statement #2: The City staff can confirm it has and will receive compensation for the encroachment because the Fountain's predecessor in interest (Mackey) paid for and constructed a Attachment 11
pedestrian path the entire length of 8th Street between Junipero and Mission. In addition, the prior owners and Fountains have watered and maintained the landscaping in the City right of way between the pavement and the grapestake fence as well as the landscaping between the grapestake fence and the Fountain's home.

INCORRECT. The path and the encroachment are unrelated to each other. There is also no evidence of any compensation to or from any party in this matter. The pedestrian path required by the City in 2003 was a condition of approval for Mr. Mackey’s Lot Line Adjustment request converting two 2500sf parcels to one 2000sf and one 3000sf parcel.
“5 February 2003 … CONDITIONS AND STANDARDS FOR USE PERMIT APPROVAL OF A LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT … 13. The applicant shall be responsible for installing and maintaining public way improvements adjacent to the project including new sidewalks…The plan shall also provide for a sidewalk along the north side of Eighth Avenue adjacent to the Scout House…at their sole expense.”
(see first attachment in the April 2022 Council Packet on this agenda item and attached landscape plan above) The request to reduce Mr. Mackey’s more expensive sidewalk obligation down to an improvement of the existing south side path came only a few months later that same year of 2003. It also did not relate to any encroachment and was instead a simple revision to the required condition of approval to the original Lot Line Adjustment request.
(see third attachment in the April 2022 Council Packet on this agenda item) Lombardo statement #3. The Fountains have paid to have the City included as additional insured on the Fountain’s homeowners' insurance as required by the original (now missing) encroachment permit.

They have provided proof annually to the City as required by the permit. If an encroachment permit had not been issued by the City why would the Fountains (and their predecessors) have done this.

Enclosed is a copy of the Fountains 2014 homeowners’ insurance policy naming the City as an additional insured as required by the missing encroachment permit.

INCORRECT. As Planning Staff has attested, there is no evidence that an encroachment permit is either missing or ever existed for the private fencing on public parkland. The Fountains did not know their fencing was on public parkland until well after they bought the property and had never paid for expanded insurance coverage up to that point. When they expanded their insurance coverage (around 2014), they knowingly did so without obtaining a copy of any encroachment permit. In the file there was no permit, no application, nor even the four department signatures required to initiate an application. Even learning that no documentation existed, the Fountains did not then apply for an encroachment permit, focusing their efforts on other development proposals. This allowed them to avoid the strict regulatory review that all encroachment permit applications involve and to leave intact for eight more years a condition they knew had no record of a permit.
