Item No. 3.A

Meeting Date: June 28, 2023
From: Kevin Biersack, Financial Services Director
Title: City User and Regulatory Fees Update

City Council

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is presented for information, discussion and direction only.

BACKGROUND:

This report presents the Schedule of User and Regulatory Fees intended for use in Fiscal Year 2023/2024.

On September 8, 2021, the City Council adopted an updated Schedule of User and Regulatory Fees based on the results of a comprehensive cost of service study. During interim years (i.e., during years in between comprehensive studies) the City Council has authorized inflationary adjustments to fees.

This year represents an interim year update, with updates primarily inten ded to apply the authorized inflationary adjustments and to incorporate feedback received subsequent to adoption of the City’s current schedule of fees.

User and regulatory fees are established by the City Council. The City’s fee schedule is a compilation of fees for City services provided to members of the public. The advantages of updating the City’s user and regulatory fees include assuring fees are set based on current costs and approved cost recovery objectives while providing transparency in the fee structure for the City’s development -related and other municipal fees.

The fee schedule identifies fees for services and activities provided at the request of, or on behalf of, a single party as opposed to the public at large. Examples of user and regulatory fees collected by Cathedral City and municipalities throughout California include, but are not limited to:
• Planning Fees, such as entitlement review and review for compliance with the zoning code
• Building Fees, such as permitting of new construction or modifications to existing structures

3.A
Packet Pg. 6

Cathedral City Page 2 of 4 Printed on 6/22/2023
• Engineering Fees, such as map review, encroachment permitting, and public improvement review
• Fire Prevention Fees, such as fire sprinkler, fire alarm, and other permit review for compliance with Fire Code
• Police Fees, such as vehicle impound and false alarm response

User and regulatory fees specifically exclude:
• Taxes
• Assessments
• Franchise Fees
• Development Impact Fees
• Fines or Penalties
• Utility Rates and Services Charges

Industry best practice and California statute are in harmony: User and regulatory fees should be set according to the estimated reasonable cost of service and should bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and/or services provided by the City. Recovering the costs of providing fee - related services directly influences the City’s goal of maintaining fiscal stability while continuing to provide quality essential services.

Additionally, ongoing review and adjustment of fees provides m ultiple benefits, including:
• Increasing the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all residents and businesses, such as public safety services.
• Keeping pace with general cost inflation.
• Avoiding fee spike s that are more likely to occur when municipalities leave fees unchanged for a multiyear period.
• Providing fee payers, city staff, and city policymakers with a pattern of consistency that provides information for forecasting and decision -making purposes.
• Helps meet fee -payer service level expectations by collecting fees to fund the existing level of services provided.
• Encouraging generational equity among fee payers by avoiding long -term stagnation of fees followed by significant fee increases.

DISCUSSION:

Staff plans to review the proposed updates to the City fees in the four attachments provided below to City fees with the goal to schedule a public hearing in a subsequent meeting to formally consider adjustments and refinements to the schedule of user an d regulatory fees:

• Attachment 1 – this attachment is for informational purposes only. It identifies fees effective July 1, 2023, after applying the City Council’s directive to adjust fees annually based on the change in regional cost inflation or based o n Council directed phase-in to full cost recovery for various fees.

3.A
Packet Pg. 7

Cathedral City Page 3 of 4 Printed on 6/22/2023
o During interim years (i.e., during years in between comprehensive fee studies) the City Council has authorized inflationary adjustments to fees.

The inflationary adjustments are based o n the annual percentage change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index for Consumer Price Index All Urban Consumers, Riverside -San Bernardino -Ontario, CA (CPI). The most recent annual percentage change in CPI was 8.7%. Accordingly, most fees in the City’s fee schedule increased by 8.7% effective July 1, 2023.

o In addition to the CPI update, the City Council has authorized a multi -year phase-in approach to enhance cost recovery for several fees. The multi - year phase-in pattern is illustrated below:
▪ Current fees at 85% cost recovery
▪ Adjustment for FY 2023/2024 (this year): Adjust fees to 92.5% cost recovery
▪ Adjustment for FY 2024/2025 (next year): Adjust fees to 100% cost recovery

• Attachment 2 – this attachment identifies non -inflationary adjustments to fees .

These adjustments are intended to refine the fee schedule to clarify applicable fees for service and annual inflationary adjustments. To more easily forecast applicable fees, identifying these fee categories in the City’s schedule will reduce variability in billings and allow applicants. These adjustments are intended to be considered by the City Council during a public hearing.

• Attachment 3 – this attachment provides the cost -of-service analysis to support non-inflationary adjustments to City fees.

• Attachment 4 – this attachment provides a complete illustration of the fee schedule anticipated to be used during Fiscal Year 2023/2024 and published on the City’s website.

FISCAL IMPACT:

With the 8.7% compounded CPI increase, City license, permit, fee a nd service revenues could provide additional revenue up to $684,342 for fiscal year (FY) 2023/2024. Considering there are certain revenues not impacted by the CPI increase, a conservative estimate would be $400,000 (5%+ increase).

FIVE-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN:

This action will further Goal C – Fiscal Stability and Sustainability

Objective - Cathedral City has economically prospered by facilitating the investment of private dollars in high quality development which benefits the community. We remain financially solvent by instituting prudent fiscal policies and transparent financial practices.

Activity Description
Funds expended for staff time shall not be dependent upon the City’s approval or disapproval of the application request. Any deposit amounts remaining after final project close out will be returned to applicant (less bond amounts held by the City).

As may be required for project evaluation or environmental review, all payment for consultant work shall be the responsibility of the applicant.

Overview of Fee Structure
Fees may be either fixed fees, deposits, or deposits with a minimum fee amount due. When a fee is deposit-based, the City will collect the initial depots and bill against that deposit. The minimum total amount charged for deposit-based fees shall be the amount shown in the minimum fee / initial deposit column.

Full Cost Deposits and Deposit Replenishment
Applicants for full cost (deposit-based) submittals shall pay for all City staff and contract service provider time and materials required to process the application. A full cost reimbursement agreement shall be included with the project application submittal package. Projects outside the scope of this fee schedule will be subject to a full cost reimbursement agreement to be approved by the City Manager and/or City Council. This reimbursement agreement will include the identification of a work program and will include cost estimates for both City staff time and consultant services based on a defined scope of work.

Initial deposits will be collected and held by the City in a deposit account at the time the application is submitted. Project billing amounts will be drawn from the deposit account. A positive account balance shall be maintained at all times during the review process. No work will be performed on a project with a negative fund balance. If the deposit is reduced to below 20% of the initial deposit amount, the applicant will be notified and required to supplement the deposit account with an additional amount no less than 50% of the original deposit. 40 3.A.a

Determination of Valuation for Fee-Setting Purposes
● Project valuations shall be based on the total value of all construction work, including all finish work, roofing, electrical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, elevators, fire-extinguishing systems and any other permanent equipment. If, in the opinion of the Building Official, the valuation is underestimated on the application, the permit shall be denied, unless the applicant can show detailed estimates to meet the approval of the Building Official. Final building permit valuation shall be set by the Building Official. For determining project valuations for new construction, the Building Official may use data published by the International Code Council (ICC) (building valuation data table, typically updated in February and August of each year). The final building permit valuation shall be set at an amount that allows the City to recover its costs of applicant plan check, permit and inspection activities.

Note: For construction projects with permit fees calculated using Section B, C, D, or E, additional fees apply for permit issuance. Additional fees may apply for services provided by other City Departments (e.g. Planning Review), Technology Enhancement Fees, and Fees Collected on Behalf of Other Agencies (e.g. State of California). Additional fees apply for plan review, when applicable.

Staff Report

City Council

Item No. 3.B

Meeting Date: June 28, 2023
From: Stone James, Economic Development Director
Title: AB 1600 Fee Justification Nexus Study

RECOMMENDATION:

This agenda item is for review and discussion.

BACKGROUND:

During the 2020 Cathedral City (City) City Council goal setting session, the Council directed staff to conduct a User Fee Study (USF), Cost Allocation Plan (CAP), and Development Impact Fee (DIF) studies. These studies evaluate the City’s true cost of providing City services to new developments and voluntarily requested city services.

When the cost of providing City services is not fully recovered from new developments, the unreimbursed City service costs are deducted from the General Fund . Using General Funds t o cover the costs incurred by new development decreases funds available to serve existing residents.

Development Impact Fees are one-time fees charged to new development. DIF fees are intended to pay for backbone infrastructure and capital facilities requ ired to serve the new developments and new residents. Municipalities are prohibited from using DIF fees to fund ongoing operations, maintenance, or to make up for existing service deficiencies. DIF fees must be accounted for, set aside, and saved until the municipality has the required funding to build the needed facilities. This study analyzed the following fees to provide: (i) Parks, (ii) Transportation, (iii) General Government Facilities, (iv) Fire Facilities, and (v) Police Facilities.

In Q3 2021, th e City reviewed, analyzed, and implemented an updated USF and CAP.

With the updated USF and CAP as a foundation , City staff issued a DIF request for proposal. After receiving and reviewing multiple qualified responses, the City selected the Clearsource Fin ancial/Harris and Associates team. The collective team ( City, Clearsource, and Harris and Associates) began work in Q2 2022.

In October 2022, Harris and Associates updated the City Council on the progress made to date and remaining steps. Tonight’s agen da item is intended to review study findings, updated fee estimates, discuss impacts of partial -to-full fee implementation, and discuss alternative paths forward.

DISCUSSION:

In 1987, the California Mitigation Fee Act was passed following the California State Supreme Court Nollan vs. California Coastal Commission decision. These cases set the stage for Assembly Bill 1600, and Government Code sections 66000 -66011. Later, Ehlrich vs. City of Culver City (1993), Doland vs. City of Tigard (1994), and Proposit ion 218 (1997) (among others) occurred, enabling public agencies to impose a user fee for government services when (1) the individual’s decision to use the governmental service is voluntary, and (2) the fee charged is reasonably related to both the level a nd cost of the service to be provided.

In addition to public agencies charging for the cost of processing development and related applications, Government Code Sections 66000 and 66001 allow for additional fees or, “monetary exactions other than a tax or special assessment” be charged “in connection with approval of a development project for the purpose of defraying all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project”. Development impact fees (DIF) are the additional fees new developments are required to pay to offset the costs of the new public facilities required to serve the new development(s).

Local agencies must determine “how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the (DIF) fee is imposed”. Agencies must also determine the “ reasonable relationship between the amount of the (DIF) fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on w hich the fee is imposed” (660014 & 4(b)) .

Government Code 66001(a) and (b) require a local agency to:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee.

2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is financing public facilities, the facilities shall be identified.

3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of developm ent project on which the fee is imposed.

5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

AB602, enacted by the State of California in 2021, requires that if a local agency conducts and adopts an impact fee nexus study after January 1, 2022, the local agency shall follow all the following standards and practices:

1. Before the adoption of an associate d development fee, an impact fee nexus study shall be adopted.

2. When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.

3.B
Packet Pg. 122

Cathedral City Page 3 of 4 Printed on 6/22/2023

3. A nexus study shall include information that supports the local agency’s actions, as required by subdivision (a) of Section 66001 of the Government Code.

4. If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local age ncy shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of fees collected under the original fee.

5. A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project propo rtionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee proportionately to the square footage of the proposed units of the development shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable re lationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. A nexus study is not required to comply with the requirements to calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionally to the square footage of the proposed units if the local agency makes the following findings:
a. An explanation as to why square footage is not appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on housing development project.
b. An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development.
c. That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

6. Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.

7. All studies shall be adopted at a public hearing with at least 30 days’ 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.

8. Studies shall be updated at least every eight years, from the period beginning on January 1, 2022.

9. The local agency may use the impact fee nexus study template developed by the Department of Housing and Community Development pursuant to Section 50466.5 of the Health and Safety Code.

The DIF study is intended to demonstrate all fees charged by the City are lawful and comply with the Mitigation Fee Act and AB602. An analysis of level of service for each applicable fee component is summarized in the attached report.

During the Study Session presentation, Harris and Associates will provide (i) an overview of DIF rules, requirements, and procedures; (ii) a side -by-side comparison of existing and proposed fees; and ( iii) a comparison of proposed Cathedral City fees with fees charged by other Coachella Valley cities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact of the updated fees can be estimated once (i) all fees have been finalized and (ii) the City Council has determined whi ch fees and over what period of time will said fees be implemented.

Section 1 Executive Summary
Introduction
The City of Cathedral City (City) is a desert resor t city located in Riverside County. The City is tucked between the City of Palm Springs and the Cit y of Indio, in the northwest part of the Coachella Valley between the San Bernadino Mountain s to the north, the San Jacinto Mountains to the south, and the San Gorgonio Pass to the west . It is the second most populated city in the Coachella Valley.

The City was incorporated in 1981 after beginning a s a housing development in 1925. The City began a downtown revitalization program in the late 1990s, which was completed by 2005. The program included a new city hall, movie theater com plex, and new and remodeled stores and restaurant space. The City features lush country clubs, diverse shopping districts, and a variety of recurring community events for residents and visitors.

At the time of the 2020 U.S. Census, the city popul ation was 51,493. As of January 1, 2022, the California Department of Finance (DOF) estimates th at the city population is 51,840. As the resident population and non-resident employment in the City increase, there exists a correlating rise in the demand for public infrastructure and se rvices to support the increased demand on the City. California’s Assembly Bill 1600 (AB1600) adop ted in 1987 and codified as California Government Code Section 66000 et. seq., allows the City to impose Development Impact Fees on new development within the City.

Development Impact Fees (DIFs) are a one-time charge on new development that is collected and used by the City to cover the cost of capital facilities, vehicles, and equipment that are required to serve new growth. In July 2021 the City adopted the updated July 1, 2019 Comprehensive General Plan (General Plan) that forms the basis of the City’s current development impact fee program. As stated in the General Plan, most of the City south of US Interstate-10 is already developed and the remaining vacant lands in this area are generally l ocated east of Date Palm Drive and north of Dinah Shore Drive. In recent years, the City’s limi ts have expanded to include lands north of US I-10 and have extended east to Bob Hope Drive, wher e large-scale master planned communities have already been approved for development. For purposes of this Nexus Study, the land north of US I-10 is defined as the North Area of the City. As noted in the General Plan, the City’s Sphere- of-Influence extends eastward on the north side of US I-10 taking in the community of Thousand Palms, continuing eastward beyond Cook Street and i ncluding the Classic Club and the surrounding master planned community.

As highlighted in the General Plan, development in the City over the past decades has been focused along the East Palm Canyon Drive (Highway 111) corr idor, and the northern areas of the City on the valley floor. The City is situated across a var iety of geographic and geologic conditions,

including a mid-valley alluvial plain and limited m ountain foothills, as well as the sandy desert floor. The Santa Rosa Mountains bound the City on t he south and Edom Hill and the Indio Hills bound the City on the north.

The Nexus Study is based on the City limits and the full General Plan Buildout of the City. As stated in the land use chapter of the General Plan, the City's future is tied to the type and amount of new development it can accommodate at General Pl an Buildout. Projecting future Buildout capacity requires consideration of several variable s and is based on assumed densities (dwelling units per acre) and intensity factors that include allowed lot coverage and floor-to-area ratios (FAR), parking requirements, etc. While some of tod ay's developed lands may change in use in the coming years, most of the assumed City buildout is on remaining vacant lands planned for residential and employment-generating uses.

The General Plan includes and encompasses the North City Specific Plan planning area, which provides residential densities of from 25 to 45 dwe lling units per acre within a master-planned, mixed-use development context. These mixed-use desi gnations have also been applied to lands south of US I-10 and provide the City an important tool to further mixed-use, high density residential development elsewhere in the community. For additional information addressing these and other related issues associated with community housing stock, please see the City’s Housing Element.

The goal of the City is to develop a fee program that achieves the objectives laid out in the General Plan and associated master plans, balances fee levels with desired economic growth, and complies with the legal requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act (AB1600/Government Code Section 66000 et seq.) and Assembly Bill 602 (AB602).

Nexus Study
Purpose
As development occurs in the City, new backbone infrastructure and capital facilities are required to mitigate the increased demand created by new residents and workers. Revenues from DIFs fund the construction of new backbone infrastructure and capital facilities as well as the related administrative costs through the City’s fee program . The fee program contains separate fee categories for each type of infrastructure and capi tal facilities. Incorporated in this Nexus Study (Nexus Study, Study or Report) are the following fees:
• Park Facilities
• Transportation
• General Government Facilities
• Fire Facilities

This Report is designed to satisfy the AB1600 Nexus requirements, AB602 requirements, and provide the necessary technical analysis to support the adoption of the updated fees. The fees will be effective 60 days after the City’s final action establishing and authorizing the collection of the fees.

Table 1-1 lists the fees the City currently collects and acc ounts for per the City’s Development Impact Fee Annual Report (“AB1600” Report) for Fisc al Year 2021-2022. The table below also shows which fees are included in the Nexus Study, w hich fees have been combined, and which fees are excluded.

As shown on Table 1-1, this Nexus Study excludes the Master Underground Plan (MUP) fee and the Art in Public Places Fee. The MUP fee was adopted in 1990 and given the significant changes to AB1600 requirements since 1990 and the new AB602 requirements, it is Harris’ recommendation that the MUP fee should be reevaluat ed with an undergrounding study or converted to an in-lieu fee. An in-lieu model is common for undergrounding fees and would require a municipal code update. The Art in Public Places F ee is currently an in-lieu fee for commercial and industrial projects equal to one percent of nin ety percent of the total project valuation. Harris conducted an analysis of different methodologies fo r updating the Art in Public Places Fee, including adding an additional impact fee for art o n residential development. After reviewing the options with City staff, it was determined that the Art in Public Places Fee would remain an in- lieu fee for non-residential development, which is consistent with numerous other jurisdictions for this type of fee.

Administrative Fee
The City oversees the implementation and administration of the DIF Program, consistent with the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act. A five perc ent (5%) Administrative Fee is added to fund the costs of the City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program. Industry sta ndard ranges from three to six percent (3-6%) of the fee for the administrative component of a de velopment fee program. The administrative functions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Annual fee adjustments
• Annual fee reporting
• Additional fee reporting every five years
• Posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on the City’s website • Periodic nexus study updates
• Staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking, and administration
Fee Adjustment Procedures
The DIFs may be adjusted periodically to reflect re vised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., state or federal gr ants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square fo otage, or changes in the land use plan. In addition, the fees will automatically be adjusted u sing the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the 20-City Average as reported by Engineering News Rec ord (ENR) for a twelve-month period or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available.

Timing of Fee Payment
Fees will be collected at the time the building per mit for the project is issued. All residential projects will pay a fee based on the livable square footage of the residential unit(s). For high- density residential projects (defined in the Genera l Plan as high-density residential development with multi-family dwellings, including apartments and condominiums), the fees will be due at the time of the building permit for each building. For high-density residential projects with communal space, the non-residential communal portion (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees as the impact is assume d to be captured in the residential fees. Areas that are accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be charged impact fees according to use.

Section 2 Legal Context and Methodology
Nexus Requirement Summary
AB1600 was enacted by the State of California in 19 87 creating the Mitigation Fee Act - Section 66000 et seq. of the Government Code. The Mitigatio n Fee Act requires that all public agencies satisfy the following requirements when establishing, increasing, or imposing a fee as a condition of approval of a development project:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee.

2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is financing public facilities, the facilities shall be identified.

3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship be tween the fees use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship be tween the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship be tween the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the p ublic facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that a ll fee components comply with the Mitigation Fee Act. The assumptions, methodologies, facility standards, costs, and cost allocation factors that were used to establish the nexus between the fees a nd the development on which the fees will be charged are summarized in subsequent sections of this Report.

AB602
AB602, which was enacted by the State of California in 2021, amended Sections 65940.1 and 66019 of, and added Section 66016.5 to the Governme nt Code. AB602 requires that if a local agency conducts and adopts an impact fee nexus study after January 1, 2022, the local agency shall follow all of the following standards and practices:

1. Before the adoption of an associated development fee, an impact fee nexus study shall be adopted.

2. When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.

3. A nexus study shall include information that suppor ts the local agency’s actions, as required by subdivision (a) of Section 66001 of the Government Code.

4. If a nexus study supports the increase of an existi ng fee, the local agency shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of fees collected under the original fee.

5. A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall cal culate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square f ootage of proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee prop ortionately to the square footage of 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 c omply with the requirements to calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionally to the square footage of the proposed units if the local agency makes the following findings:
• An explanation as to why square footage is not appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on housing development project.
• An explanation that an alternative basis of calcula ting the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. • That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

6. Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.

7. All studies shall be adopted at a public hearing wi th at least 30 days’ 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.

8. Studies shall be updated at least every eight years , from the period beginning on January 1, 2022.

9. The local agency may use the impact fee nexus study template developed by the Department of Housing and Community Development pur suant to Section 50466.5 of the Health and Safety Code.

The purpose of this Report is to demonstrate that a ll fee components comply with the Mitigation Fee Act and AB602. An analysis of level of service for each applicable fee component is summarized in subsequent sections of this report.

Capital Improvement Plan
AB602 states that large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan (CIP) as part of the nexus study. This report includes the facilities to be adopted as the City’s CIP for the DIF program in Appendix A.

Explanation of Level of Service and Fee Increase
AB602 requires that when applicable, the nexus stud y identifies the existing level of service for each public facility, identifies the proposed new l evel of service, and includes an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. This report relies on existing level of service standards developed in consultation with City staff and with reference to the existing capital facilities and

improvements in the City for all the fee programs documented herein apart from the Park Facilities Fee and Transportation Fee. Utilizing the existing level of service as the fee basis is appropriate for new development to pay their fair share. For the Park Facilities Fee, the existing level of service is identified and acknowledged that it falls below the City Standard. The City Standard is utilized for the Park Facilities Fee as it is an appropriate City Standard set by the General Plan and as the City has significant growth in the North area of the City, it is appropriate for new development to meet this City Standard. New development is expecte d to pay the fee that results in meeting the City Standard and will not be used to fund existing deficiencies. Transportation discussion TBD.

Methodology
Imposed fees require various findings to ensure tha t a reasonable relationship exists between the fee amount and the cost of the facility or portion of the facility attributable to the new development.

Several methodologies are available to determine fe e amounts. Choosing the appropriate methodology depends on the type of facility for which the fee is calculated and the availability of documentation to support the fee calculation. Follo wing is a discussion of the methodologies available to calculate the separate fee components in this report.

Facility Standards Method
The facility standards method determines the facili ties and associated costs required to accommodate growth based on adopted City standards. Depending on the fee analysis, the City may or may not currently have sufficient facilities to meet the adopted standard. If the City’s existing facilities are below the standards, then a deficiency exists. In this case, the portion of th e cost of planned facilities associated with correcti ng the deficiency must be satisfied with funding sources other than Development Impact Fees (DIFs). AB1600 fees can only fund facilities needed to accommodate new development at the adopted standard.

Master Plan Method
The master plan method is based on a master facilities plan in situations where the needed facilities serve both existing and new development. This appro ach allocates existing and planned facilities across existing and new development to determine ne w development’s fair share of the needed facility. This approach is used when it is not possible to differentiate the benefits of new facilities between existing and new development.

Planned Facilities Method
The planned facilities method calculates the standard based solely on the ratio of planned facilities to the increase in demand associated with new devel opment. This method is appropriate when planned facilities are mostly for the benefit of ne w development, such as a wastewater trunk line

extension to a previously undeveloped area. This me thod may also be used when there is excess capacity in existing facilities that can accommodate new development.

Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory method uses a facility stand ard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.

Section 3 Population and Land Use Assumptions
Land Use Types
To ensure a reasonable relationship between each fee and the type of development paying the fee, different land use types must be distinguished. The land use categories used in this analysis are defined below.
• Single Family Residential (SFR) : Detached single-family dwelling units. Includes very low density, low density, and age-restricted units. • Multi-Family Residential (MFR): Attached residential projects. • Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) : A second unit, attached or detached from a SFR. • Commercial : All commercial, retail, educational, hotel/motel development, and mixed-use development.
• Office : All general, professional, and medical office development. • Industrial : All manufacturing and warehouse development.

Some developments may include more than one land us e type, such as an industrial warehouse with living quarters (a live-work designation) or a planned unit development with both single and multi-family uses. In these cases, the fees will be calculated separately for each land use type.

Growth Forecasts
Growth projections are used as indicators of demand and projected revenue to fund the infrastructure identified in Appendix A. The City’s existing population and Buildout population projections are critical assumptions used throughout the fee sections that follow in this report. The following resources were used as part of this analysis:
• Estimates of total development through Buildout were based on the City’s land use plan from the City’s Comprehensive General Plan, adopted July 28, 2021. • Population projections were based on the land use p rojections and the estimated persons per household taken from the US Census American Community Survey. • Existing population estimates are from the 2021 California Department of Finance. • Existing non-residential worker populations are bas ed on non-residential data for the City of Cathedral City derived from the City’s Comprehensive General Plan, adopted July 28, 2021, and employees per square feet assumption from the USGBC LEED BD+C: New Construction | v4 – Default Occupancy Counts.. • Worker projections are based on estimated buildout square footage and the employees per square feet assumption from the USGBC LEED BD+C: New Construction | v4 – Default Occupancy Counts.

Table 3-1 identifies the existing service population. Non-residential buildings are typically occupied less than dwelling units, so it is reasona ble to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per-resident dema nd. The 0.37-weighting factor for workers is based upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).

Occupant Density
Occupant densities ensure a reasonable relationship between the increase in service population and the amount of the fee. Developers pay the fee based on the square footage of additional housing units or building square feet of non-residential de velopment, so the fee schedule must convert service population estimates to these measurements of project size. This conversion is done using the average occupant density factors by land use type shown in Table 3-3. The residential density factors were derived from the US Census American Community Survey while the non-residential densities were derived from the U.S. Green Building Council Default Occupancy Counts.

Table 3-3: Persons per Household & Employment Density

Average Unit Sizes
To meet AB602 requirement five (5), this Report calculated the average unit size for single family residential and multifamily units based on the estimated average size of planned new development within each land use category in the City. The aver age unit size is based on the livable square footage of the residential unit for all residential land uses. This Report derived the unit sizes from the Market Watch Quarterly New Home Report for Coac hella Valley, dated December 2022 and the Desert Housing Report dated October 2022.

Basing the average unit size on livable square footage for all residential units is not only consistent with industry standard for fee calculations, it provides a strong nexus between the impact of the unit and the fee amount. A good example of this industry standard are school fees in California. In California school fees are based on assessable spac e, which means a quantity equal to the area (expressed in square feet) within the perimeter of a residential structure, not including the carport, walkway, garage, overhang, patio, enclosed patio, detached accessory structure or similar structure.

(i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees as the impact is assumed to be captured in the residential fees. Areas that contain employees and are accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be charged i mpact fees according to use. The non-residential area accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be based on the useable size of that area. The usable square footage is the actual area of a space as measured within the demising exterior walls of that space. Including areas that contain employees that are accessible by the public captures the additional impact these new facilities will have on the backbone facilities in the City.

Table 3-4: Residential Land Use Average Unit Size

The City will monitor the average size of housing units in the City based on new developments on an annual basis and if the size of units on average are significantly different than anticipated, the fees will be updated as part of the annual update for the fee adjustment to reflect this change in order to ensure the fee program collects the anticipated level of funding.

Section 4 Park Facilities Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the need for a dditional parks to accommodate new development in the City and the fees that are neces sary in order to ensure that new development provides adequate funding to meet those needs. This Nexus Study updates the methodology of the existing Parks Fee and recommends updated fees.

Residential development in the City will pay the Pa rk Facilities Fee at building permit issuance.

The park cost was estimated based on the existing C ity standard of three (3) acres of green space per 1,000 residents. The Park Facilities Fee is for park facility development cost only and does not include parkland acquisition costs. Parkland acquisition under the Quimby Act requires developers to either dedicate land to satisfy their parkland requirement or pay an in-lieu fee. The in-lieu fee is dependent upon appraised land cost and thus, the amount should be agreed upon between the City and the developer when the land dedication is trigg ered. The City has an existing Quimby in-lieu fee (also known as a Park In-Lieu Fee). As noted in the General Plan, Park In-Lieu Fees stem from the Quimby Act. Quimby provides for the dedication of land for parks, or in certain instances (i.e. a subdivision is small), a fee in-lieu of dedicatin g land is provided. It is important to note that fo r the Park In-Lieu Fee, infill projects are exempt, and the fee applies primarily to parkland and land improvements in new neighborhoods. For the Park Fac ilities Fee, which is a DIF, the fee applies only to new development and is only assessed for new capital costs related to the new development with a defined beneficiary relationship.

Parkland
AB1191, also known as the Quimby Act, was establish ed by the California State Legislature in 1965 and codified as California Government Code Sec tion 66477. The Quimby Act outlines the requirements for imposing fees for park purposes wi th a minimum of three (3) acres and a maximum of five (5) acres of green space per 1,000 residents. The Quimby Act allows the legislative body of a city or county, by ordinance, to require the dedication of land or impose a requirement of the payment of fees in-lieu thereof, or a combination of both, for park or recreational purposes as a condition to the approva l of a tentative tract map or parcel map.

Currently the City imposes a Residential Quimby Par ks Fee based on three (3) acres per 1,000 residents or the payment of an in-lieu fee. The for mula is based on a dwelling unit factor, the parkland dedication requirement (currently three (3) acres per 1,000 residents) and the fair market value per acre (varies per development).

Service Population
The Park Facilities Fee is not applied to non-resid ential development because workers typically do not use park facilities.

Current Level of Service
Per the City’s Comprehensive General Plan, the City has a total of 73.23 acres of developed parkland. Table 4-1 lists the existing parkland available to current residents. Based on a population of approximately 51,840, there are 1.41 acres of ex isting parkland per 1,000 persons/residents as also shown in Table 4-1. Thus, the current parkland is less than the stand ard of 3 acres per 1,000 people on a citywide level.

Planned Level of Service
The City has established a goal for parks at three (3) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, per the Parks Master Plan and City General Plan. This analy sis is based on the existing City standard of three (3) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, where new development will contribute and develop three (3) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents. As new development cannot fund existing deficiencies, new development will not be required to bring the City’s existing level of service to this standard Citywide, but new development will be required to meet the standard of three (3) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents with this fee.

As stated previously, the existing level of service is identified and acknowledged that it falls below the City Standard. The City Standard is utilized fo r the Park Facilities Fee as it is an appropriate City Standard set by the General Plan and as the Ci ty has significant growth in the North area of the City, it is appropriate for new development to meet this City Standard. New development is expected to pay the fee that results in meeting the City Standard and will not be used to fund existing deficiencies. As described in more detail in Chapter 9, the City may provide fee credits or reimbursements to developers who construct eligible facilities.

Fee Methodology
The Park Facilities Fee is based on the Facility St andards Method. This method determines the facilities and associated costs required to accommo date growth based on adopted City standards.

Using this approach for parks, new development fund s the expansion of facilities at the adopted General Plan standard for the City. Table 4-2 calculates the total cost of future park improvements based on the General Plan standard of three (3) acr es per 1,000 residents, anticipated service population growth, and the cost per acre of park de velopment. Fee revenues may be used to construct park improvements and facilities on land dedicated by developers in accordance with the City’s Quimby Ordinance or though land purchased th rough the payment of the in-lieu Quimby Fee.

Fee Summary
The Park Facilities Fee per unit is calculated by m ultiplying the cost per capita by the average number of residents per unit type (density). The fe e per unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot by taking the total fee per unit and dividing by the estimated average unit size for each land use to arrive at the fee per square foot. The total fee includes a five percent (5%) administrative charge to fund fee program administrative costs, in cluding but not limited to preparing annual reports, preparing fee updates, and other administr ative tasks related to the fee program administration.

community parks. The City’s adopted standard is to provide 3 acres of parkland for each 1,000 residents. In order to accommodate these needs, new park facilities will be built and/or existing park facilities will be expanded . Table 4-3 calculates the parks cost per capita based on the C ity standard for parks and the estimated construction cost.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The Park Facilities Fee will be used to fund new pa rk development in order to meet the City’s General Plan and Park Master Plan standards discussed in this chapter. The anticipated fee revenue at Buildout is shown on Table 4-5.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The fee will be used to fund new neighborhood, mini and community parks that are necessary to serve the increased residents in the City. New resi dential development generates additional residents which increases the demand for park facilities. The Park Facilities Fee is calculated using the City’s General Plan standard of three (3) acres of park per 1,000 residents. Residential development is responsible for paying its fair shar e to meet the City’s standard. Non-residential uses do not pay the fee since they do not generate additional residents and workers have minimal impact on the City’s park system.

Table 4-3 calculates the cost per capita and then allocates the cost to each development type based on the estimated persons per household. Table 4-4 then calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size . By basing the fee on the size of the unit and the estimated number of new residents that is a nticipated to be generated by the addition of that square footage, the fee is directly correlated to the increased need for new parks.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new residential development is anticipated to generate new residents. The addition of new residents creates the need for new neighborhood, mi ni and community parks to meet the City’s General Plan park standard of three (3) acres per 1 ,000 residents. The fee is directly correlated to the number of new residents expected to be generate d by each type of development. Non- residential development does not pay for parks as non-residential developments do not generate a significant demand for park facilities. Residential development pays its fair share based on the estimated persons the new unit is expected to generate.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

As new residential units are constructed, new park facilities are necessary to meet the City’s General Plan standard of 3 acres of park per 1,000 residents. The Park Facilities Fee is calculated by taking the cost per acre of park development tim es three (3) acres of parks per 1,000 future residents to determine the cost per capita, as show n in Table 4-3. The cost per capita is then allocated to each residential land use based on the persons per household each unit is expected to generate, assessed an administrative fee of 5% and divided by the average unit size in square feet to determine the fee per square foot as shown in Table 4-4. Since the need for park land is based on the number of new residents, calculating the fee based on the number of persons each unit is expected to generate and converting to a fee per square feet, ensures that each new residential unit is paying only its fair share of the required facilities.

By determining the fee based on the estimated new r esidents that would be generated by new development, each new residential unit is paying on ly its fair share of the facilities required to meet the City’s General Plan Standard. Non-residential land uses are not assessed a Park Facilities Fee as non-residential development will not generate an increase in park facility demand.

Section 5 Transportation Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the Citywide T ransportation Fee. The proposed Citywide Transportation Fee covers the costs to mitigate the impacts of new development on the City’s traffic facilities. The fees listed below are charged on new development within the City and cover transportation projects that were in part or fully attributable to new development when the projects were created:
• Traffic Signalization
• Road and Traffic Facilities
• Interchange and Bridges
• Bikeway Facilities
• Trail Facilities
The Citywide Transportation Fee proposes to merge t he five fees above into one single fee based on the updated analysis presented in this chapter. The new Citywide Transportation Fee will establish a separate capital facilities fund to avo id any commingling of transportation fees with other revenues and funds. The Mitigation Fee Act re quires that fees are expended solely for the purpose for which the fees were collected. To compl y with the Mitigation Fee Act, the existing funds for the Traffic Signalization, Road and Traffic Facilities, Interchange and Bridges, Bikeway Facilities, and Trail Facilities will be transferred to the new Citywide Transportation Fee fund.

As shown on Table 5-1, the future street improvements and traffic signal facilities were developed by the City of Cathedral City Engineering Departmen t based on facilities necessary to serve new development. Additional information is provided in Appendix B . The future bikeways and multi- modal facilities were derived from the City of Cathedral City Comprehensive General Plan.

Demand for services and the associated facilities for transportation are based on the additional trips that will be generated by new development through B uildout conditions. The Citywide Transportation Fee utilizes the land use trip generation assumptions presented in Table 5-2 for the various residential and non-residential land uses b ased on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11.1 Edition.

Table 5-2: Future Additional Trips

Cost Summary
The Citywide Transportation Fee will fund the expan sion of transportation facilities necessary to serve new growth. The transportation facilities lis ted in Table 5-1 have total DIF eligible project costs estimated to be approximately $109.5 million, with future development’s responsibility approximately $75.2 million.

Fee Methodology
The Transportation Fee uses the Planned Facilities Method to calculate the fee. The Planned Facilities Method calculates the fee based on the p lanned facilities associated with new development. This method is appropriate when planned facilities are mostly for the benefit of new development, such as a road extension to a previously undeveloped area.

The Transportation Fee is calculated based on the c ost per trip generated by new development.

The total cost of the facilities attributed to new development identified in Table 5-1 is spread over the anticipated number of trips that will be genera ted by future development (as shown in Table 5-2) to calculate the cost per trip.

To calculate the total number of new trips attribut able to new development through Buildout, the growth projections, detailed in Chapter 3 , are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates identified in Table 5-2. These trip generation rates for the land use types within this fee program are based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11.1 Edition.

The multi-family assumption is an average of the mu lti-family attached 2-4 rate and multifamily attached 4+ rate. The non-residential land use ITE rates are assessed per employee, so the rates are multiplied by future employees at Buildout in the City.

Residential trips were calculated by multiplying th e anticipated growth in residential units by the corresponding single family and multi-family trip g eneration rates. Non-residential trips were calculated by multiplying the anticipated growth in employees by the corresponding trip generation rates for each of the land uses. The ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition notes all Retail and Services land uses (commercial) are entitled to a "pass-by" trip reduction between 40%- 60%. This study assumes the average with a 50% trip reduction for commercial. Pass-by trips are a subset of trips traveling on a road that stops by a near-by commercial development. They are not new trips. Table 5-2 shows the breakdown of the total trips attributed to new development through Buildout condition.

Table 5-3 calculates the total number of existing trips attri butable to existing development. The existing land uses and employees, detailed within C hapter 3, are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates identified in Table 5-3. Table 5-3 displays the ITE trip generation rates for the land use types within this fee program. As stated previously, the multi-family assumption is an average of the multi-family attached 2-4 rate and multifamily attached 4+ rate. The non-residential land use ITE rates are assessed per employee, there fore these rates are multiplied by existing employees in the City. The existing trips are calcu lated to determine future developments responsibility as the total transportation cost is allocated between existing and future trips.

The cost per trip is calculated by taking the total cost of the DIF eligible transportation facilities , calculating the existing trips and future additiona l trips, diving the total cost between existing development and future development’s responsibility based on trips, and then dividing the future development responsibility cost by the trips genera ted by new development. This calculation is shown in Table 5-1.

Fee Summary
The Citywide Transportation Fee for new development is calculated by multiplying the cost per trip identified in Table 5-1 by trip generation rate for each land use. The tota l fee includes a five percent (5%) administrative charge to fund fee prog ram administrative costs, including but not limited to preparing annual reports, preparing fee updates, and other administrative tasks related to the fee program administration.

Table 5-4: Citywide Transportation Fee Summary

Reduced Traffic Fee
Residential developments near transit stations gene rate fewer trips than traditional land use configurations that rely on vehicles as the primary mode of transportation. According to various transportation studies, measurable trip reductions result for projects that are near transit stations and where there are a diversity of land uses that promote connectivity and walkability. To account for the reduced trip rates generated by projects meeting the above characteristics, an additional trip adjustment factor is applied to new residential land uses meeting the following criteria:

1. The housing development is located within one-half mile of a transit station and there is direct access between the project and the transit station along a barrier-free walkable pathway not exceeding one-half mile in length.

2. Convenience retail uses, including a store that sel ls food, are located within one-half mile of the housing development.

3. The housing development provides either the minimum number of parking spaces required by the local ordinance, or for residential units, no more than one onsite parking space for zero to two bedroom units, and two onsite parking spaces for three or more bedroom units, whichever is less.

For purposes of this reduction, the definition of t ransit station shall be defined by California Government Code Section 65460.1, “Transit station” means a rail or light-rail station, ferry terminal, bus hub, or bus transfer station. Also, a “housing development” shall be defined by California Government Code Section 66005.1, which i s a development project with common ownership and financing consisting of residential use or mixed use where not less than 50 percent of the floorspace is for residential use.

Commercial trips often coincide with other trips (i .e., Person A stops by the store on their way home from work, Person B stops by a restaurant afte r grocery shopping, etc.) This “pass-by” trip Land Use Cost per Trip Trips

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Citywide Transportation Fees will be used to fu nd the new transportation facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increa se in transportation demand due to new development. The cost of the transportation improvements is spread to each land use based on the number of trips generated by each land use. This co rrelation to trips ensures that each new development pays their fair share of the transportation costs.

The cost per trip calculations is shown in Table 5-1. The fee calculation is shown in Table 5-4.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional trips that incrementally adds to the need for new traffic infrastructure and facilities to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and ensure that traffic facilities can accommodate the increased demand. These facilities are identified i n the current City General Plan Update and through City discussions. Each new residential and non-residential development pays an impact fee based on the additional trips that is expected to be generated by the new development. To accommodate these additional trips, new transportat ion improvements will be needed city-wide.

Utilizing trips generated by each development ensur es that each type of development pays their fair share of the required new transportation facilities. This calculation is shown in Table 5-4.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The transportation facilities that are necessary fo r the new development are summarized in the planned improvements presented in Table 5-1. Each land use pays their fair share of costs base d on the number of trips generated by that land use as shown in Table 5-2. Existing development is netted out from the analysis based on existing trips (calculated on Table 5-3), to ensure that future land uses only pays their fair share of the traffic improvements, as calculated in Table 5-1. The cost per trip is then spread to each land use based on the ITE Trip Generation Rates. This calculation is shown in Table 5-4 . Utilizing trips ensures that each development pay s their fair share of the cost.

Section 6 General Government Facilities Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the need for g eneral government facilities to accommodate new development in the City and the fees that are n ecessary in order to ensure that new development provides adequate funding to meet this increased need. The City does not currently have a General Government Facilities Fee and this N exus Study presents the methodology to establish the fee. The City does have a City Yard Vehicle Storage Fee that will be combined with this new General Government Facilities Fee.

The General Government Facilities Fee will fund str uctures, vehicles, and equipment related to government facilities, such as City Hall, Library, and Public Works facilities that are needed to serve the future service population of the City.

The Civic Center is located at 68700 Avenida Lalo G uererro and contains approximately 65,000 square feet. It houses the Police Department (inclu ded in a separate chapter) and city staff and administrative offices, including the Mayor’s offic e and City Council chambers. Per discussions with City Staff, there is room to expand at the cur rent location. Per the General Plan, the City’s corporate yard is located at 68385 Kieley Road, near Cathedral Canyon Drive. The facility includes two masonry buildings with a total of approximately 8,500 square feet. One building serves as a vehicle maintenance garage/workshop, and the other includes staff offices for the Public Works Department and warehousing space. The remainder of the site consists of an asphalt parking lot, which accommodates staff and City-owned vehicles. C ity staff has indicated that additional parking space is needed and that the corporate yard may be expanded in the future. Furthermore, as the City grows, especially North of I-10, additi onal general government facilities may be needed, such as library facilities.

Current Level of Service
The current level of service is based on the value of the General Government Facilities as shown below in Table 6-1. The value for the police station and jail is included in the Police Facilities Fee and not the General Government Facilities Fee. The table also shows the City’s current general government inventory of vehicles and equipment.

To determine the current level of service, the value of the existing general government facilities is divided by the existing service population to deriv e the existing level of service cost per capita/worker. The cost per capita for non-residential land uses is weighted using the factors shown in Table 3-1 to calculate the cost per worker. This calculation is shown in Table 6-2.

Planned Level of Service
The City’s general facilities serve both residents and businesses. Demand for services and associated facilities, is based on the City’s servi ce population including residents and workers.

The City plans to maintain the current level of service per resident and worker, as shown on Table 6-2, with appropriate participation from new developme nt. Per AB 602, when applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.

This Nexus Study identifies the existing level of service per resident and worker and based on the Nexus Study analysis and discussions with City staff, it has been deemed appropriate to maintain the existing level of service. As described below, this ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.

Fee Methodology
The General Government Facilities Fee is based on t he Existing Inventory Method. This method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Unde r this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facil ity deficiencies are spread to future development.

Fee Summary
The General Government Facilities Fee is distribute d across the various land uses by multiplying the cost per capita/worker by the average number of residents/workers per unit type (density) as identified in Table 3-3 (e.g. for single family residential the density assu mption is 2.85 residents per unit). For each residential land use, the fee p er unit is then converted to a fee per square foot by dividing the cost per unit by the estimated aver age unit size for each land use. For non- residential land use categories, density is shown o n a workers per 1,000 square feet basis and the fee is then calculated on the same basis. The total fee includes a five percent (5%) administrative charge to fund fee program administrative costs, in cluding but not limited to preparing annual reports, preparing fee updates, and other administr ative tasks related to the fee program administration. These calculations are shown in Table 6-3.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the General Government Facilities Fe e is to fund the General Government Facilities needs generated by new development in the City, such as expanded facilities at City Hall or new facilities in the North area of the City. Ea ch new resident and worker create a demand for additional general government facilities. In order to accommodate these needs, new general government facilities will be built and/or existing facilities will be expanded.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The General Government Facilities Fee will be used to fund new general government facilities in order to maintain the City’s existing level of serv ice. The anticipated fee revenue at Buildout is shown on Table 6-4, which will be used to fund expanded facilities at City Hall and new general government facilities, especially in the North are a of the City, such as library facilities and expanded corporation yard facilities. The capital improvement projects are identified in Appendix A.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The fee will be used to fund new general government facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New de velopment generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for general gove rnment facilities. The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same stand ard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures t hat no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.

Table 6-1 identifies the existing general government facilit ies and Table 6-2 calculates the existing cost per capita/worker. Workers are weighted less than residents to reflect lower per capita service demand. Non-residential buildings are typically occupied less than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per-resident demand. The 0.37-weighting factor for workers is ba sed upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a residen t’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).

The cost per capita/worker is then allocated to eac h development type based on the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 squar e feet. Table 6-3 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for non-residential .

projected ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development planned to be built.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate new residents and workers. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for new general government facilities to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The General Government F acilities Fee is based on the number of applicable workers and/or residents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facilities is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident, thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 that of a resident. The fee for each unit type is calculated in Table 6-3.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

As new development is constructed, new general gove rnment facilities are needed to meet the City’s existing level of service for government facilities. The fee is based on the Existing Inventory Method.

The existing level of service is calculated by taking the total general government facilities cost and dividing it by the existing service population to d erive the existing level of service cost per capita/worker as shown in Table 6-2. The fee for each land use is then calculated by m ultiplying the cost per capita/worker by the number of new res ident equivalents that each land use will generate and converting to a fee per square foot for residential and a fee per 1,000 square foot for non-residential as shown in Table 6-3. Since the need for the facilities directly correl ates to the addition of new residents and workers, determining the fee based on the projected equivalent residents for each land use ensures that new development pays for their fair share of the required future facilities.

Section 7 Fire Facilities Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the City’s Fire Facilities Fee. The Fire Facilities Fee provides funding for fire facilities, equipment, and vehicles as a result of increased demand for fire services arising from new development. Currently the City has a Public Safety Fee that includes police and fire services. This Nexus Study proposes a separate fee for police and fire. The Fire Facilities Fee will include the fire portion of the City’s current Fire and Police Facilities/Equipment Fee and Public Safety Facilities Fee.

Currently the Cathedral City Fire Department staffs three firehouses with five to six firefighters and ambulance operators, as well as an administrative office with the fire chief, deputy fire chief, three battalion chiefs, a fire inspector and two administrative support staff.

Nexus Requirement Summary
The Fire Facilities Fee component of this DIF Study meets the Mitigation Fee Act Requirements, as described in this section.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the Fire Facilities Fee is to fund new development’s fair-share portion of new fire facilities, such as new fire stations, vehicles and fire equipment required for the additional fire personnel that are necessary to mitigate the impact s of new development. Each new resident and worker creates a demand for additional fire facilit ies. In order to accommodate these needs, new fire facilities will be built and/or existing facilities will be expanded per capita/worker.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The Fire Facilities Fee will be used to fund new de velopment’s fair-share portion of the fire facilities, new fire stations, vehicles and fire equipment required to serve new development in order to maintain the City’s existing level of service. T he anticipated fee revenue at Buildout is shown on Table 7-4. The capital improvement projects are identified in Appendix A.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The fee will be used to fund new fire facilities th at are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New development generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for fire facilities. The Exist ing Inventory Method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new dev elopment funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing develo pment. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.

City of Cathedral City
Table 7-1 identifies the existing fire facilities and Table 7-2 calculates the existing cost per capita/worker. Workers are weighted less than residents to reflect lower per capita service demand.

Non-residential buildings are typically occupied le ss than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per-resident demand. The

0.37-weighting factor for workers is based upon a 4 5-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).

The cost per capita/worker is then allocated to eac h development type based on the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 squar e feet. Table 7-3 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for non-residential . Calculating the fees based on the new residents or employees generated ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate new residents and workers. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for new fire facilities to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The Fire Facilities Fee is based on the number of applicable workers and/or residents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facilities is directly related to a particular development’s impa ct. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident, thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 that of a resident.

The fee for each unit type is calculated in Table 7-3.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

As new development is constructed, additional fire facilities are needed to meet the City’s existing level of service. The fee is based on the existing inventory method.

The existing level of service is calculated by taking the total fire facilities value and dividing it by the existing service population to derive the exist ing level of service cost per capita/worker as shown in Table 7-2 . The fee for each land use is then calculated by m ultiplying the cost per capita/worker by the projected number of new resident equivalents that each land use will generate, and converting to a fee per square foot for residen tial and a fee per 1,000 square foot for non- residential land uses as shown in Table 7-3. Since the need for the facilities directly correl ates to the addition of new residents and workers, determin ing the fee based on the equivalent residents each land use is expected to generate ensures that each new development pays for their fair share of the required future facilities.

Section 8 Police Facilities Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the City’s Pol ice Facilities Fee. The Police Facilities Fee provides funding for police facilities, equipment, and vehicles as a result of increased demand for police services arising from new development. Curre ntly the City has a Public Safety Fee that includes police and fire services. This Nexus Study proposes a separate fee for police and fire. The Police Facilities Fee will include the police porti on of the City’s current Fire and Police Facilities/Equipment Fee, Public Safety Facilities Fee, Police Community Center Fee, and Police Safety Training Site Fee..

The current police headquarters and jail is located within the City Hall building in the City.

Current Level of Service
Table 8-1 shows the City’s current police inventory of polic e facilities, vehicles and equipment.

The current value is divided by the existing servic e population to establish the existing level of service per capita. Table 8-2 calculates the existing level of service per resident/worker.

The total police facilities value is divided by the existing service population to establish the existing level of service per resident/worker as shown in Table 8-2.

Table 8-2: Police Facilities Existing Level of Service

Planned Level of Service
The City plans to maintain the current level of ser vice, as shown on Table 8-1, with appropriate participation from new development. Per AB 602, when applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. This Nexus Study identifies the existing level of service per resident and work er and based on the Nexus Study analysis and discussions with City staff, it has been deemed appropriate to maintain the existing level of service.

As described below, this ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.

Fee Methodology
The Police Facilities Fee is calculated using the E xisting Inventory Methodology. The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per s quare foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at th e same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.

Fee Summary
The Police Facility Fee per unit is calculated by m ultiplying the cost per resident/worker by the average number of resident/worker equivalents per unit type (density). The cost per capita for non- residential land uses is weighted using the factors shown in Table 3-1. For residential uses, the fee per unit must be converted to a fee per square foot for each unit type by dividing by the average size of each unit. The total fee includes a five pe rcent (5%) administrative charge to fund fee program administrative costs, including but not limited to preparing annual reports, preparing fee updates, and other administrative tasks related to the fee program administration. Table 8-3 summarizes these calculations.

Table 8-3: Police Facilities Fee Summary

Revenue Projections
Table 8-4 summarizes the anticipated Police Facilities Fee re venues collected at Buildout. To ensure that the police department can meet the need s of the growing City community, the police department will eventually need to build the following police facilities:
• A North City station (approximately 31,700 square feet) • Six-lane indoor shooting range
• Locker room
• 20’x 20’ Property evidence room
• Covered and secured evidence area (e.g., air conditioned barn-style facility) used for processing several vehicles and bulk evidence

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The fee will be used to fund new police facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New development generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for police facilities. The exi sting inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new dev elopment funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing develo pment. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.

Table 8-1 identifies the existing police facilities and Table 8-2 calculates the existing cost per resident/worker. Workers are weighted less than res idents to reflect lower per capita service demand. Non-residential buildings are typically occ upied less intensively than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per- resident demand. The 0.37-weighting factor for work ers is based upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).

The cost per capita/worker is then allocated to eac h development type based on the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 squar e feet. Table 8-3 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for non-residential . Calculating the fees based on the new residents or employees generated ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate new residents and workers. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for new police facilities to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The Police Facilities Fee is based on the number of applicable workers and/or residents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facilities is directly related to a particular development’s impa ct. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident, thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 that of a resident.

The fee for each unit type is calculated in Table 8-3.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

As new development is constructed, additional polic e facilities are needed to meet the City’s existing level of service. The fee is based on the existing inventory method.

Section 9 Implementation and Administration
Implementation
According to the California Government Code, prior to levying a new fee or increasing an existing fee, an agency must hold at least one open and publ ic meeting with at least 30 days’ notice. In addition, notice of the time and place of the meeting, including a general explanation of the matter to be considered, and a statement that the data required by this section is available, shall be mailed at least 14 days prior to the meeting to any intere sted party who files a written request with the local agency for mailed notice of the meeting on ne w or increased fees or service charges. Any written request for mailed notices shall be valid f or one year from the date on which it is filed unless a renewal request is filed. At least ten days prior to this meeting, the agency must make data on infrastructure costs and funding sources available to the public. Notice of the time and place of the meeting and a general explanation of the matter are to be published in accordance with Section 6062a of the Government Code, which states that publication of notice shall occur for ten days in a newspaper regularly published once a week or more. The new or increased fees shall be effective no earlier than 60 days following the final action on the adoption or increase of the fees.

Fee Program Administrative Requirements
The Government Code requires the City to report every year and every fifth year certain financial information regarding the fees. The City must make available within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year the following information from the prior fiscal year:

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 in the account or fund.

4. The amount of the fee collected and the interest earned.

5. An identification of each public improvement for wh ich fees were expended and the amount of expenditures.

6. An identification of an approximate date by which t ime construction on the improvement will commence if it is determined that sufficient funds exist to complete the project.

7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account and when it will be repaid.

8. Identification of any refunds made once it is deter mined that sufficient monies have been collected to fund all fee related projects.

The City must make this information available for p ublic review and must also present it at the next regularly scheduled public meeting not less th an 15 days after this information is made available to the public.

City of Cathedral City
For the fifth fiscal year following the first depos it into the account or fund, and every five years thereafter, the City must make the following findin gs with respect to any remaining funds in the fee account, regardless of whether those funds are committed or uncommitted:

1. Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put.

2. Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the f ee and the purpose for which it is charged.

3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticip ated to complete financing any incomplete improvements.

4. Designate the approximate dates on which funding in item (3) above is expected to be deposited into the fee account.

As with the annual disclosure, the five-year report must be made public within 180 days after the end of the City’s fiscal year and must be reviewed at the next regularly scheduled public meeting.

Fee Adjustment Procedures
The DIFs may be adjusted periodically to reflect re vised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., state, or federal g rants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square fo otage, or changes in the land use plan. In addition, in July of each calendar year, the fees w ill automatically be adjusted using the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the Los Angeles R egion as reported by Engineering News Record (ENR) for the twelve-month period ending in May or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available. For example, the adj ustment for July 2024 will be determined by taking the percentage change of the Los Angeles con struction cost index from May 2023 to May 2024.

Timing of Fee Payment
Fees will be collected at the time the building per mit for the project is issued. All residential projects will pay a fee based on the livable square footage of the residential unit(s). For high- density residential projects, the fee will be due at the time of the building permit for each building.

For high-density residential projects, the non-resi dential communal portion (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assess ed impact fees as the impact is assumed to be captured in the residential fees. Area that are acc essible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will b e charged impact fees according to use.

Credits and Reimbursement Policies
The City may provide fee credits or reimbursements to developers who dedicate land or construct eligible facilities. Fee credits or reimbursements may be provided up to the cost of the improvement, as shown in this study, subject to per iodic inflation adjustments, or the actual cost paid by the developer, whichever is lower. For construction cost overruns, only that amount shown

The City will evaluate the appropriate fee credit or reimbursement based on the value of the dedication or improvement. Credits or reimbursements may be repaid based on the priority of the capital improvements, as determined by the C ity. The City will determine fee credits and reimbursements on a case-by-case basis and possibly through the use of a development agreement.

Administrative Fee
An administrative fee of five (5) percent is includ ed as part of each of the fees and may be used for costs for legal, accounting, and other administ rative support and development impact fee program administration costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated public reporting, and fee justification analysis. The administration fee is included within each fee.

Please refer to the individual fee calculation tables for a breakdown of the administration fee.

Programming Revenues with the CIP
The City should maintain its CIP to adequately plan for future infrastructure needs. The CIP should commit all projected fee revenues and fund balances to specific projects that are necessary to serve growth as described in this report. The use of the CIP provides documentation necessary for the City to hold funds in a project account for longer than five years if necessary to collect sufficient funds to complete a project. In addition, the CIP i s required per AB602. This report outlines the projects that are to be funded with the fee program and forms the basis of the CIP, as shown in Appendix A .

Fee Reporting
Assembly Bill No. 1483, which became effective January 1, 2020, requires that public agencies make the following information available on their website. The following information must be provided:

1. A current schedule of fees, exactions, and affordab ility requirements imposed by the city, county, or special district, including any dependent special districts, of the city or county applicable to a proposed housing development project, which shall be presented in a manner that clearly identifies the fees, exact ions, and affordability requirements that apply to each parcel.

2. All zoning ordinances and development standards, wh ich shall specify the zoning, design, and development standards that apply to each parcel.

3. The list of information required to be compiled pursuant to Section 65940.

4. The current and five previous annual fee reports or the current and five previous annual financial reports, which were required pursuant to subdivision.

5. An archive of impact fee nexus studies, cost of service studies, or equivalent, conducted by the city, county, or special district on or after January 1, 2018.

Accessory Dwelling Units
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a second unit t hat is attached or detached from a single- family home. In accordance with Assembly Bill No. 8 81 approved on October 9, 2019, fees will not be charged for an ADU that is less than 750 square feet. For an ADU that is 750 square feet or larger, the ADU will be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. Since the residential fees are now b eing charged on a square footage basis, ADU fees will be calculated by multiplying the Single-F amily Residential fee by the ADU’s square footage.

Specialized Development Projects
The fees in this Report may not apply to specialize d development projects such as golf courses, cemeteries, sports stadium, or other specialized la nd uses. For specialized development projects the City will review the development’s impacts to d etermine the applicable fees. The fee rates presented in this Report may be reduced, exempted, or waived under certain circumstances as determined by the City. Any exemption or reduction in fees will be based on the City’s independent analysis and review of the subject property. In add ition, for reuse, density increasing, or rezone projects, the developer shall only be responsible f or paying fees for the intensification of the development. In cases of disaster, impact fees will not be charged on the rebuilding of the structures that were affected by the disaster to th e extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is similar to the structure destroyed by the disaster. The City will review the development’s increased impacts to determine the applicable fees.

Some developments may include more than one land use type. In these cases, the fee is calculated separately for each land use. The City has the disc retion to impose the fees based on the specific aspects of a proposed development regardless of zoning. The fee imposed should be based on the land use type that most closely represents the impacts of the development.

Rebuild or Expansion Projects
For reuse, expansions, density increasing, or rezon e projects, the developer shall only be responsible for paying fees for the intensification or expansion. For example, if a homeowner wishes to build an addition to their home that is 1 00 square feet, the homeowner would be responsible for paying fees for the 100 square foot addition. The City will review the new development’s impacts to determine the applicable fees on a case by case basis.

In cases of rebuilding a structure after a demolition, impact fees will not be assessed on the rebuild to the extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is similar to the structure prior to demolition. Similarly, in cases of disaster, impact fees will not be charged on the rebuilding of the structures that were affected by the disaster to th e extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is the same as the structure destroyed by the disaster. Impact fees for the new structure

City Council

Item No. 3.C

Meeting Date: June 28, 2023
From: John Corella, Director of Engineering/Public Works Title: Parks Application for Field Facilities Long Term Use Update

City Council

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is presented for information, discussion and direction only.

BACKGROUND:

The residents of Cathedral City enjoy access to nine (9) community parks that include various recreational facilities including soccer/baseball/softball fields, volleyball/basketball courts, skate park, tot play lots, adult fitness equipment, water play areas, open space areas, picnic gazebos, walking paths, dog parks, restrooms and concession stands. The addition of more soccer fields and futsol fields will be provided when the Dream Homes Park is completed.

The above facilities offer opportunities for exercise and enjoyment available to all. The benefits provide d for social interaction, personal growth, a connection to the natural environment, and wellness are invaluable.

In an excerpt from the May 30, 2023 Uken Report, as written by Cindy Uken:

“In its now -adopted biennial budget, the City Council allocated $380,000 for city parks in fiscal year 2023-2024, and another $590,000 thousand in fiscal year 2024-2025. City parks are a wise investment.

City parks play a vital role in the social, economic, and physical well -being of America’s cities and their residents, according to City Parks Alliance . Nearly 80% of the Americ an population lives in urban areas. As cities continue to grow, planners, elected officials, and community advocates are taking a fresh look at parks and their potential to help address critical urban infrastructure and public health issues.

City parks pr ovide access to recreational opportunities, increase property values, spur local economies, improve safety, and mitigate stormwater runoff and other environmental threats.

Parks are now recognized as powerful tools for urban communities and local economies to help drive more vibrant and equitable cities.

• City parks encourage active lifestyles and reduce health costs.

Physical activity can reduce or prevent many physical and mental health problems.

Parks also reduce the costs of healthcare: maintaining a he althy weight saves $1,500 per person in healthcare costs per year.

• City parks strengthen local economies and create job opportunities.

Parks attract residents and businesses, increase revenue for cities, spur private investment, and increase job opportunities.

• City parks increase community engagement and reduce crime.

Planning and programming that engages residents in the design and of their local parks fosters a sense of community and helps ensure that the parks reflect the needs of the community.

The biennial budget addresses the priorities of the community while generating revenues that meet city expenditures. It also focuses on the City’s newly published Five -Year Strategic Plan, which was approved April 13, ….”

DISCUSSION:

As a result of the City’s past and future year investments in the Parks, there have been several organized sports organizations request ing long term use of the Dennis Keat Soccer Park fields and the baseball fields at Ocotillo, Panorama and Century Park.

The City initiated this process years back with an agreement for AYSO to have use of a majority of the soccer fields at Dennis Keat Park reserved for AYSO’s use during their specified season. The agreement with AYSO also had provisions for participation in the cost of watering the fields, electrical costs to power the lights and specifics regarding “sweat equity” to maintain/clean the bathrooms and provide light maintenance of the irrigation system that waters the fields.

The agreement with AYSO, proves challenging in several areas, but specifically to this Staff Report, took a significant amount of Staff and Attorney time and resources to negotiate, develop and modify the agreement.

This past year we have had other organized sports organizations requesting similar reservations and/or agreements to utilize the remaining (unreserved fields) at Dennis Keat Park. These include youth and adult flag and tackle football groups. At other parks (Ocotillo, Panorama and Century ), Xtreme Baseball and Softball has requested season long reservations for the respective baseball/fields at these locations , including the use of the existing concession stands.

As a result of these request s, Staff looked at the process other Coachella Valley Cities use to streamline the park reservation process. Staff also expanded the investigation to Cities outside the Coachella Valley. A spreadsheet of the findings is attached.

Key areas of focus for Staff as shown on the spreadsheet are:

• Payment for the use of the facilities
• The Forms used for the reservations (and either paper or online)

Packet Pg. 191

Cathedral City Page 3 of 4 Printed on 6/22/2023
• The Insurance requirements
• The overall Application Process
• Other specifics for the application process that provided additional information.

Since there can be a number of reservations for various park facilities, e.g ., soccer, basketball, volleyball courts, etc., (in this initial stage), Staff is specifically targeting the ability to accommodate the organization(s) requesting the use of the baseball/softball fields at Ocotillo, Panorama and Century Parks.

Staff is looking at options for streamlining the application process to make it easier for organized baseball/softball sports groups to make long term and seasonal reservations for the available City baseball/softball fields. Staff’s initial draft application and fe es are attached to this report. An additional Fees, Charges and Policy Manual is also under development.

Once this application process is vetted (additional Staff presentations) and receives the support of the City Council, Staff will expand the applicat ion process to other City park’s facilities for long term and short-term use.

Note: The City already has a process in place to rent the gazebo/picnic areas at Panorama, Century and Ocotillo Parks , thus the short -term reservations for other park amenities can also be incorporated.

In conjunction with the streamlining effort as outlined above, the management of both the long-term and short -term reservation process internally is also under review. This includes how and what departments/divisions will be p roviding the management and approvals.
