SUBJECT: Resolution No. 202 4-XXX, Accepting the Annual Report on Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year 2023/2024 as Required by Government Code Section 66006(b)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff recommends the City Counci l to adopt a resolution accepting the Annual Report on Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year 2023/2024 as required by Government Code Section 66006(b).

I. BACKGROUND:

California Government Code Section 66006 requires an annual accounting of developer impact fees to be made available to the public within 180 days of the City's fiscal year end.

The information must be presented to the City Council at least 15 days after it is made available to the public.

Requirements of the Law
A Development Impact Fee is a monetary exaction other than a tax or special assessment that is charged by a local governmental agency to an applicant in connection with the 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. Agencies that collect and utilize Development Impact Fees are required to provide the following information regarding each fund or account established for the collection of impact fees:
• A brief description of the type of fee in the fund;
• The amount of the fee;
• The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund; • The amount of fees collected and the interest earned; • An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures on each improvement;
ITEM 6
• An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the public agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing of an incomplete public improvement;
• A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees will be expended, and, in the case of an interfund loan, the date on which the loan will be repaid, and the rate of interest that the account or fund will receive on the loan; and,
• The amount of refunds made of unexpended fees or allocations made pursuant to Government Code section 66001(f).

Additionally, Government Code Section 66001 requires that if the funds have not been spent, the City must make the following required findings, regardless of whether the funds are committed or uncommitted, once every five years:
1) Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put;
2) Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged; and
3) Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing of incomplete public improvements and the approximate dates on which such funding is expected to be deposited into the appropriate fund.

When sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing of incomplete public improvements and the improvements remain incomplete, the agency is required to identify an approximate date by which construction of the public improvement will be commenced or shall refund to the then current owner(s) of record the unexpended portion of the fee and interest accrued thereon with limited exception.

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 17, 2013 Project No.: 341- 02- 09- 09
TO: Toby Wells, Director/City Engineer, City of Ceres
FROM: Polly Boissevain, West Yost Associates, R.C.E. #36164 John Famkopf, HF& H Consultants, LLC, R. C. E. # 31652
Sima Mostafaei, HF& H Consultants, LLC
REVIEWED BY: Gerry S. Nakano, West Yost Associates, R.C.E. #29524 SUBJECT: Water Connection Fee Study
West Yost Associates ( West Yost) and HF& H Consultants ( HF& H) are under contract with the City of Ceres (City) to completea Water Rateand ConnectionFee StudyUpdatethat will generatesufficient revenuesfor the City to fund capital improvement projects identified in the City's 2011 WaterMasterPlan. Waterratesare usedto fund improvementprojectsthat are needed to remedy existing system deficiencies, and therefore benefit existing customers.

Connection fees are used to fund improvement projects that are required to expand the existing water system to serve projected growth. New water rates for Fiscal Year 2013/ 14 through 2017/ 18 were developed and adopted by the City on January 28, 2013. This technical memorandum documents the results of our analysis of the City' s water connection fees and provides recommendationsfor updates to the City' s existing connection fees. This technical memorandum also describes the methodology used to derive updated connection fees and compares the results with neighboring agencies.

SUMMARY
New developmentcustomersconnectingto the City' s water systempay a one-time connectionfee at the time of connection to the system. This fee is used to fund projects that provide additional capacity for growth. The value of capacity derived in this report representsthe value of a connection to the City' s facilities.

Findings and Recommendations

1. Proposed methodology. The proposedconnectionfeemethodology is basedon growth' s shareof the cost of constructingproposedfuture facilities specifically identified in the City' s WaterMaster Planto servefuture customers. Sincesomeof thesefacilities provide systemredundancyand/or capacityfor both existing andfuture customers, dividing the cost of capacity by the associated capacity specifically associated with new growth needs yields the cost per connection, which represents the connection fee.

2. Proposed connection fees. The results of the current analysis increase the current connection fee from $ 4,985 per dwelling unit equivalent ( DUE) to $ 6, 697. This amount reflects implementation of the Water Master Plan improvements for future growth.

3. Implementation. We recommend the City update its connection fees based on the recommended connection fee of $ 6,697 per DUE. We further recommend that the City annually escalate the connection fee to reflect construction cost inflation using the Engineering News Record 20 -Cities Construction Cost Index ( ENR CCI). The recommended connection fee of $ 6, 697 is based on an ENR CCI of 9, 437, which reflects construction costs as of January 2013. The City should periodically recalculate the connection fees to reflect the current schedule of capital improvements.

The connectionfee analysis, like the rate analysis, excludesall potential costsof the City' s future participation in the Regional Surface Water Supply Project, which the City will evaluate separately. Potential impacts on connection fees are briefly summarized in this technical memorandum using cost information presented in the Water System Master Plan.

INTRODUCTION
Background
Connection fees are a type of development impact fee that public agencies may impose as a condition of development under the authority of California Government Code Section 66000 et seq., the Mitigation Fee Act. The purpose of connection fees is to ensure that new development pays its fair share of the costs associated with providing system capacity. Connection fees are a one- time charge paid prior to the time that the connection is made. The Act requires that " those feesor chargesshall not exceedthe estimatedreasonablecost of providing the service." 2 Because
the Act does not prescribe a formula or procedure for determining " the estimated reasonable cost," it is the responsibility of the analyst to employ a method that yields a reasonable result.

The courts generally regard fees as being reasonable if they are not capricious, arbitrary, or discriminatory. Fees are capricious if there is no factual basis for the underlying data used to make the calculations. Fees are arbitrary if there is no logical rationale for choosing among alternatives. Fees are discriminatory if they disproportionately allocate costs to one class of customers at the expense of another class. The purpose of this report is to document that the conditions havebeenmet to establishthat the City' s water serviceconnectionfee is reasonable.

The Dwelling Unit Equivalent ( DUE) relates residential and non- residential connections to an equivalent single family residential connection, basedon the ratio of estimatedaveragedaily water use. The $6,697 connectionfee calculation is for a single family residential connection. See Table 4 for more detail on connection fee charges for different land use types.

Approach and Analysis
The approach used in the Ceres analysis derives the connection fees in terms of the unit cost of capacity associatedwith the proposed capital improvements. The unit cost of capacity was calculated by dividing the cost of facilities for future growth by the corresponding proportionate share of capacity associatedwith the future facilities. The future capacity was based on the estimated total future annual demand for the General Plan at buildout.

Future facilities were identified, their capital costs were determined in 2013 dollars, the capacity associated with the facilities was determined, and the unit cost of capacity was calculated by dividing the capital costs by the system capacity. A spreadsheet model was prepared to make the calculations. Each of these steps is described below.

CALCULATION METHODOLOGY
Facilities Included in Calculation
The Water Master Plan identifies a recommended capital improvement program to address existing water system deficiencies and provide for future growth through buildout of the City' s General Plan. Recommended capital improvements for water supply include rehabilitation of existing wells, and installation of new wells. Recommended water distribution system capital improvements include new distribution system pipelines, new distribution system storage and associatedbooster pump stations, and funding of ongoing programs such as the small main replacement program and maintenance and repair of water system appurtenances.

The connection fee analysis, similar to the rate analysis, includes all of the recommended Water Master Plan capital improvements, except for capital improvements associated with the Regional Surface Water Supply Project, for which the City will evaluate participation separately. Facilities identified in the Water Master Plan will be funded from rate revenue and connection fees.

Value of Facilities
For the connection fee analysis, the value of facilities is based on capital cost estimates prepared for the Water Master Plan. Capital costs include construction costs and markups to reflect the full implementation cost for a project. Markups include a project construction contingency, and allowances for design, construction management, permitting, regulatory and CEQA compliance, andprogramimplementation. Table 1 summarizesthe Water Master Plan capital costsin January 2013 dollars.

Fee Calculation
In the Public Facilities Fee Nexus Study ( PMC, 2010), General Plan land use density information and water use factors for different land use types were used to estimate the number of dwelling unit equivalents ( DUE' s) that are projected to be built, where each DUE is equivalent to one single family residentialconnection. This samemethodologywas used, but was updatedto reflect the latest General Plan land use information and associated water use factors developed for the Water SystemMaster Plan. Primary differencesin land usewere changesto reflect the inclusion of the West Landing Specific Plan area. Basedon the Water SystemMaster Plan calculations, the total number of DUE' s attributable to future growth is 15, 161.

Potential Impacts of Regional Surface Water Project on Connection Fees The connection fees recommended in this memorandum do not include cost recovery for construction of capital facilities needed for the Regional Surface Water Supply Project. This section evaluatespotential impacts to connection fees of cost recovery for surfacewater, using preliminary cost information developed in the Water System Master Plan. The Water System MasterPlan evaluatedcapital costsfor the City' s participation in Phase1 of the Regional Surface Water Supply Project, in which a 29 mgd regional water treatment plant would be constructed, with 6 mgd of capacity for the City. The Water SystemMaster Plan included costsfor the City' s share of the capital costs for the construction of the new water treatment plant, and infrastructure to tie into and deliver water to the City' s existing and future customers. The capital cost estimate included in the Water Master Plan for these facilities associated with the proposed Regional Surface Water Supply Project was $ 51.4 million, with 50 percent of costs allocated to existing customers and 50 percent of costs allocation to future customers, based on the approximate doubling of demandby buildout of the General Plan. Using this estimate, escalatedto January 2013 dollars, the approximate increase in connection fees for Phase 1 of the Regional Surface Water Supply Project would be about $ 1,800 per DUE. This estimate should be regarded as a generalorder -of -magnitude estimateonly, as the costs for the Regional Surface Water Supply Project are somewhat dated.

CONNECTION FEE COMPARISON
Table 5 comparesconnection fees for the City with other neighboring communities. The City' s proposed fee is consistent with the highest connection fees within this peer group. For some agencies, the methodologythey usedmay not fully recovergrowth' s shareof the cost of capacity or, if it did, the agencydecidednot to adoptthe full amountthat couldbejustified in favorof development, and therefore, their connection fees are lower.

c) Project 5B, Pipe Upsizing in East Service Road creates capacity available to serve future users. Of the project cost contained in Table ES -1, approximately 36% of the capacity created and therefore the cost benefits existing users by eliminating capacity deficiencies within and tributary to the project limits.

The costs contained in Table ES -12 are primarily to addressexisting deficiencies, where costs that benefit future uses have been identified where feasible. Other facilities that provide more of a general benefit for wastewater service, such asthe WWTP Office and Lab Building Expansion should be included in the cost for new usersto buy -in to existing facilities.

2. Identification of the useof the fee revenues, e.g., by identifying the capital improvements needed to accommodate future connections to the City' s sewer system; A reasonablerelationship between the fee and the type of development paying the fee, e.g., on an EDU basis;

4. A reasonablerelationship between the need for the fee and the type of development paying the fee, e.g., evaluating existing available capacity and projecting facilities improvements to serve future users ( future development); and A reasonablerelationship between the amount of the fee and the estimated cost of facilities needed to provide sewer service.

The below calculations contain the basis for the reasonablerelationship between the amount of the fee and the estimated cost of facilities as contained in this Master Plan.

ES. 8. 1 FACILITIES FINANCING AND FEE CALCULATION METHODOLOGIES The Alternative A3 improvements are anticipated to benefit about 27, 500 future EDUs in the Ceres Sewer Service Area ( CSSA). The total capital cost for new wastewater treatment and disposal facilities is approximately $ 100.6 million, which includes replacement capacity for approximately 1.07 Mgal/ d of existing flows ( basedon retaining 2. 0Mgal/ d of the existing 3.07 Mgal/ d flow by continued export to Turlock under existing agreements). Replacement capacity for 1.07 Mgal/ d representsapproximately 4,100 EDUs basedon 260 gallons per day per EDU, therefore the average cost per EDU for future wastewater treatment and disposal facilities is approximately $ 3,200 (2010 cost basis), e.g., $ 100. 6 million /( 27, 500 + 4, 100 EDUs). Actual cost per EDU will depend significantly on the actual costsfrom Turlock and Modesto, aswell as the actual cost of facilities asthey are phasedand constructed. An important element of facilities phasing and financing is that they must be constructed and operational prior to connection of future EDUs, therefore there is a lag in revenue meeting expensesif connection fees arethe only source used to construct future facilities.

In orderto allow for facilitiesto beconstructedin anorderlyfashionprior to their need, theCity should consider the following strategies:

Be sure to include the cost of remaining capacity in existing facilities in the calculation of any future connection chargesor facilities fees.

Utilize up -front developer contributions, typically in the form of a development agreement, for the financing and/or construction of improvements needed.

Utilize reimbursement agreements, when possible or feasible, to allow for construction of facilities phasesin cost-effective capacity increments in anticipation of future development StantecConsultingServices, Inc. Cityof Ceres

Executive
North Ceres Sewer Service Area
Existing facilities substantially have available capacity to serve infill development within the NCSSA, except where sewer extensions and minor improvements are expected to extend service as described above, therefore the averagecost per EDU for sewer capacity is basedon any buy -in to existing wastewater collection facilities and the cost of capacity from the City of Modesto.

Main City Sewer Service Area
The master plan facilities identified in this Sewer Master Plan primarily benefit new connections to the Main City Sewer Service Area, which excludes the NCSSA. The total number of new EDUs anticipated to benefit from the master plan facilities is approximatelyt 27, 500. The total cost of the master plan facilities to serve future users is $ 143, 300, 000 ( based on 89% of Alternative A3 from Table ES - 7, Table ES - 9, and Table ES - 11), resulting in an averagefacilities expansion cost per EDU of approximately $ 5,210. The estimated cost of existing facilities with capacity to accommodate future users or benefitting future users is $20,617,000, and considering these facilities to equally benefit the approximately 27,500 future EDUs, the averagecost to buy - in to these facilities is approximately $ 750. Combining thesecosts as seenin Table ES -15, the estimated averagecost of sewer capacity per EDU is $5,960, not including any cost for financing.

It is recommended that the City consider this averagecost of capacity per EDU asthe basecost per EDU in the City' s Wastewater Facilities Impact Fee, plus any cost not included in the above calculations. Cost allocations to non- residential uses would be calculated based on the General Plan floor arearatios and an estimated 75 gallons per day per 1,000 squarefoot floor area (see Table 2- 2 of Technical Memorandum No. 2). Any deviations in the actual cost of facilities from these estimated costs should be considered in future updatedto the City' s Wastewater Facilities Impact Fee.

ES. 8. 4 FUTURE FEE REVIEW AND INDEXING
Connection fees should be reviewed by the City periodically, including adjustments where appropriate. Such adjustments can be routine adjustments associatedwith rising costs of construction, such as adjusting the fee associateswith an index as described below. Also, as each StantecConsultingServices, Inc. CityofCeres

major project proceedsand costs are known with more certainty, including the meansand cost of financing improvements, connection fees should be reviewed and adjusted.

The discussion regarding project phasing and possible cost associatedwith project financing illustrates the degreeto which such financing can impact the average cost of facilities, and therefore the connection fee. Most sewer improvements and wastewater treatment and disposal facilities expansion will likely require some sort of long-term debt financing, with connection fee revenuesproviding initial capital or contributing to debt service asthey are available, or up -front developer contributions and oversizing. Therefore, asthe City proceedswith each major improvement project described in this Master Plan, the cost of the facilities should be updated and the connection fee calculation revised. This review is of particular importance where most financing mechanismswill likely have to be backed by a sewer user fee pledge for debt service as mentioned above. At a minimum, it is recommended that the City review the connection fee at the following milestones:
0 Upon completion of a development projection and facilities financing plan consistent with that projection and the City' s current financial capabilities.

At eachPhaseof WWTP improvements, in particular when negotiating capacity and buy - in to City of Modesto or Turlock facilities; and
During design and financing of the export pipeline to the Modesto Jennings WWTP.

Indexing is usedto provide for automatic adjustment of feesto account for inflationary cost increases. The connection fee enabling ordinance can provide for an automatic fee adjustment on a prescribed date eachyear, or every other year or third year, etc. Annual indexing revisions are generally preferred over lessfrequent adjustments; to minimize the magnitude of the changeand insure that revenue more closely follows expenses. One approach involves adjustment basedon an acceptedcost indicator such asthe CPI (Consumer Price Index) or the Engineering News Record (ENR) Construction Cost Index. The latter is preferred since it more closely reflects cost changesin theconstructionindustry, which areusedasthebasisfor computingCity connection fees. This approach provides the most accurate adjustment, although the incremental change increase or decrease) is not known beyond the current year.

An alternative approach is to have the fee increased a fixed amount each adjustment period. The incremental amount is setto approximate the inflationary adjustment expected in the next several years. The advantage to this approach is that the adjustment amount is known in advance and can be setto a round number, simplifying accounting.

The preferred approach for the City is an annual adjustment basedon the ENR Construction Cost Index, with the based Index value of 8761 ( mid 2010) for the costs calculated in this Master Plan.

If a financing factor is included in the cost of facilities, basedon actual long-term debt to finance facilities, thenindexingof theconnectionfeefor thatportionof thecostmaynotbeappropriate.

The City of Ceres Planning Commission had two vacancies for two full four -year terms expiring December 31, 2028. Mayor Lopez and Councilmember Silveira were selected by Council at the August 12, 2024 City Council meeting . The subcommittee held five interviews with the candidates on October 14, 2024 . The subcommittee selected two candidates, Ruldip “RJ” Jammu and Dr. Dorie Perez, to fill those vacancies. At the October 14, 2024 meeting, the Council voted to appoint to the two candidates based on the subcommittee’s recommendation. Mr. Jammu and Dr. Perez will start their terms on January 1, 2025.

With the election of Planning Commission Chair Cerina Otero to the City Council, there is now a vacancy on the Planning Commission. The term for this seat expires on December 31, 2026. To address this vacancy, the Council will need to first select a new subcommittee in order to move forward with the appointment of a Commissioner for the recently vacated seat. Next, the Council will need to decide if they would like to appoint a Commissioner from the remaining three candidates that applied for the prior two vacancies, or hold new a Planning Commission recruitment and interviews. If the Council chooses to use the three candidates from the prior interview cycle, the new subcommittee members will re-interview the candidates and make a recommendation to the City Council at the January 13, 2025 City Council meeting . If the Council chooses to run a new recruitment, the vacancy will be advertised from December 18, 2024 through January 20, 2025. After that time, the candidates will be interviewed by the subcommittee and the subcommittee will present their recommendations to the City Council at the February 10, 2025 City Council meeting. The Council will then select a Commissioner at that time.
