STAFF REPORT

DATE: APRIL 15, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: DEB FARRAR, COMMUNITY SERVICES DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: TIME AND PLACE FIXED TO CONSIDER A PUBLIC HEARING TO

APPROVE AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL

OF THE CITY OF COLTON UPDATING THE MASTER FEE

SCHEDULE FOR SERVICES PERFORMED BY THE COMMUNITY
SERVICES DEPARTMENT, RESOLUTION NO. R-20-25.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

Approve and Adopt Resolution R-20-25, updating the Community Services Department Fee Schedule for implementation on May 5, 2025 with the release of the 2025 Summer edition of the Colton Connection.

BACKGROUND

As part of our annual budget preparation process, the Community Services Department conducts a comprehensive review of all fees associated with our programs and activities. The Fee Schedule was last updated and approved by the Council on May 7, 2024. Notably, our department boasts the largest contingent of part -time, entry -level employees in the City. To ensure we maintain the high level of service expected by our community, certain fee adjustments are recommended to align with rising costs and what the local market can bear.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

Our team has diligently benchmarked specific fees against agencies serving similar communities and has developed a consistent methodology for evaluating fees. This opportunity was taken to clarify fee descriptions and enhance requested amenities. This includes restructuring , reducing

1.1 Packet Pg. 9
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Fee Update - Community Services Department Fees & Rental Policy April 15, 2025

costs and adding amenities. New fees for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 include: Recreation Swim Family Day Pass, Youth Swim Pass, Day Camp Discounts, and Adult Sports Forfeit Bond.

Please refer to the attached detailed worksheet, which lists last fiscal year's fees alongside our recommendations for F iscal Year 2025-2026. It's important to note that no changes have been proposed for the Early Care & Education or Library programs.

Additionally, attached to this staff report are the Policies and Procedures employed by the Community Services Department for processing and facilitating Facility Rental Reservations across all City Facilities under its purview. We continue to revisit these policies each year to provide clarity on facility usage and procedures for anticipated rental users . By delineating these protocols, we aim to enhance transparency, streamline processes, and uphold the standards of excellence expected from our department. While the Reservation Program remains our highest revenue producer, it also plays a crucial role in supporting residents and community groups whenever possible. It should be noted that there are no changes to the policy at this time.

The recommendation is for the City Council to approve the updated Community Services Master Fee Schedule. This schedule was recommended by the Recreation and Parks Commission on March 12, 2025. It is intended for implementation on May 5, 2025, in the summer edition of the Colton Connection.

FISCAL IMPACTS

If all fees are approved as recommended, we anticipate an increase in revenue in correlation to the increase in labor and supply costs. The goal is to adopt in time for full implementation in the Summer 2025 issue of the Colton Connection which is mailed at the end of April for registration in May.

The City of Colton ("City") engaged NBS to conduct a Water and Wastewater Capacity Fee Study for two primary purposes: (1) to ensure compliance with legal requirements and industry standards, and (2) to align fees with the cost of capital infrastructure needed to support new connections or increased capacity requests within the City's water and wastewater systems (referred to as "future customers"). These capacity fee adjustments will not impact existing customers and are solely intended to ensure that new development pays its fair share for necessary infrastructure improvements.

To effectively plan for growth, the City must identify necessary water and wastewater infrastructure and assess the associated costs required to mitigate both direct and cumulative 2 Packet Pg. 38

impacts of new development. This necessitates updating existing capacity fees and introducing new fees where applicable.

The study was conducted with the goal of funding City facilities required to accommodate new development through 2044. Capacity fees cannot be used to address existing infrastructure deficiencies. The study followed these key steps:

1. Demographic Assumptions – Identified projected growth to assess future demand for water and wastewater infrastructure.

2. Infrastructure Needs and Costs – Determined the infrastructure required to support growth and the associated costs ("needs list").

3. Cost Allocation – Distributed infrastructure costs based on an "equivalent dwelling unit" calculation and service factors unique to each fee.

4. Fee Schedule – Established fees per meter equivalent unit (for water) and equivalent dwelling unit (for wastewater).

In accordance with AB 1600, the study adheres to the following criteria:

• Identifies the purpose of the fees;
• Specifies how the fees will be used;
• Demonstrates a reasonable relationship between the fee uses and the types of development projects subject to the fees;
• Establishes a reasonable relationship between the need for public infrastructure and the development projects being charged;
• Ensures the fee amount maintains "rough proportionality" to the cost of infrastructure required for new development.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

Water Capacity Fee

The updated water capacity fees, as detailed in the attached report and as shown below, are based on regulatory requirements and industry’s best practices and are further outlined in Appendix A.

W/WW Capacity Fees
April 15, 2025

The purpose of the City's water capacity fee is to ensure that new and upsized connections contribute a fair share toward the City's planned capital investment projects, which are necessary to support increased demand for water services. These capacity fee adjustments will not have an impact on existing customers and will apply solely to new development or increased capacity request within the City’s water and sewer service areas. These fees help fund infrastructure projects that enable sustainable water service for new customers.

Capacity fees for new water connections vary based on meter size, which corresponds to the expected demand placed on the system. Meter size is a key determinant of peak water usage, ensuring that larger users contribute proportionally to system costs.

Without continued investment in infrastructure, the City would face challenges in maintaining adequate water capacity for future connections. Planned capital projects are essential to sustaining reliable service levels. The total value of planned water system assets needed to support future customers is detailed in Appendix A.

Upon payment of a capacity fee, new customers assume the same ongoing service rate obligations as existing customers, regardless of when they connect or begin service. These fees ensure that ongoing rates are not disproportionately burdened by system growth.

The purpose of the wastewater capacity fee is to ensure that new connections contribute a reasonable share toward the City’s planned capital investments. Like the water capacity fee’s, these wastewater capacity fee adjustments will not affect existing customers and will only apply to new development or increased service demands. These investments are essential to maintaining and expanding wastewater infrastructure to accommodate increased service demands.

All parcels connecting to the City’s wastewater system are subject to the wastewater capacity fee as a condition of approval. The fee is calculated based on the estimated number of equivalent dwelling units (EDUs) the connection will serve, ensuring proportionality to system demand.

Figure 12 of the report illustrates the number of EDUs and associated accounts currently connected to the system.

The City has invested in wastewater infrastructure and will continue expanding and upgrading facilities to meet growth-related demands. Without these capital investments, future wastewater capacity would be uncertain, and service reliability could be compromised. Figure 15 details the total value of planned wastewater system assets needed for future customers.

As with water capacity fees, upon payment of a wastewater capacity fee, new customers assume the same ongoing service rate obligations as existing customers, ensuring that long -term rates remain equitable despite system expansion.

FISCAL IMPACTS

These capacity fee adjustments will not impact existing customers and are solely intended to ensure that new development pays its fair share for necessary infrastructure improvements.

For Fiscal Year 2023-24, capacity fee revenue was as follows:

• Water: $109,038.00
• Wastewater: $276,401.00

Based on anticipated development activity and the proposed fee adjustments, staff projects the following revenue increases if development trends remain consistent with FY 2023-24 levels:

2 Packet Pg. 41
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council

• Water: 80%
• Wastewater: 75.3%

These projected increases will be factored into the FY 2025 -26 budget to account for expected revenue growth from development impact fees.

Water & Wastewater Capacity Fee Study Report – City of Colton Prepared by NBS – December 2024 1

1. Executive Summary

1.1 Background and Purpose
City of Colton (“City”) retained NBS to conduct a water and wastewater capacity fee study for two primary reasons: (1) to ensure that the fees are updated to comply with legal requirements and industry standards, and (2) to ensure that these fees reflect the cost of capital infrastructure needed to serve new connections, or any person requesting additional capacity in the City’s water and wastewater system (referred to throughout as “future customers”).

Please note, the fees updated in this study are commonly referred to as “connection fees,” “capital facility fees,” “capacity charges,” or in this case, “capacity fees.” The terms are often used interchangeably, and California Government Code Section 66013 defines these types of fees (referred to as a “capacity charge”) as a one-time “charge for public facilities in existence at the time a charge is imposed or charges for new public facilities to be acquired or constructed in the future that are of proportional benefit to the person or property being charged, including supply or capacity contracts for rights or entitlements, real property interests, and entitlements and other rights of the local City involving capital expense relating to its use of existing or new public facilities.” It authorizes public agencies to impose “connection fees” (e.g., capacity fees) which are more appropriately called system capacity charges or capacity fees, on customers connecting to or upsizing their connection to the water or wastewater system, to ensure that they pay their fair share of existing utility asset costs, plus the costs of new facilities needed to serve them. In its simplest form, capacity fees are the result of dividing the cost (or value) of the Utility’s current system assets plus planned capital improvements, by the expected number of future customers. As a result, future customers connecting to the City’s water and wastewater utilities would enter as equal participants, along with current customers, regarding their financial commitment and obligations to the utilities.

California Government Code Section 66013 also calls for an annual report, prepared within 180 days after the last day of the fiscal year. The report will describe the charges deposited into the fund, the beginning and ending balance of the fund, and how those funds have been spent.

In 2019, California passed SB 13, AB 881, and AB 68, which added language to encourage the construction of more housing in the form of Accessory Dwelling Units. Specifically, a local agency, special district, or water corporation shall not impose any impact fee upon development of an accessory dwelling unit less than 750 square feet.

In September 2021, AB602 was signed into law requiring additional requirements for establishing or increasing development impact fees as well as transparency requirements. Some of the key requirements include:
• Beginning January 1, 2022, an impact fee nexus study must be prepared and adopted to establish the basis for the new fee.
• Nexus studies must be updated at least every eight years. • Nexus studies and associated impact fee programs must be adopted at a public hearing with at least thirty days’ notice to the public (previously only ten days).

A defensible nexus study needs to be based on the challenges the agency is facing in terms of expected infrastructure required to meet growth as well as the expected growth in development. The nexus study

2.c
Packet Pg. 50
Attachment: Colton Capacity Fee Report_Water and Wastewater_FINALpdf (4844 : W/WW Capacity Fees)

Water & Wastewater Capacity Fee Study Report – City of Colton Prepared by NBS – December 2024 2
(required by AB602) will also have to be based on an approved capital improvement plan (AB602 also requires large jurisdictions (population over 250,000) to adopt a capital improvement plan as the basis for the nexus study).

Whereas water or wastewater rate increases imposed on existing customers require a protest ballot procedure (under Proposition 218), capacity fees do not because they are an appropriate funding mechanism for facilities that benefit new development agencywide and may be imposed by a majority vote of the governing legislative body, which in this case is the City of Colton’s City Council. This report provides the documentation and findings necessary for the adoption of proposed capacity (system capacity) fees.

1.2 Overview of Capacity Fee Program Methodology
Various methodologies have been and are currently used to calculate water and wastewater capacity fees.

The most common methodologies are based on the following from the American Water Works Association’s Principles of Water Rates, Fees and Charges1, also referred to as Manual M1:
• The value of existing (historical) system assets, often called a “system buy-in” or “replacement cost” methodology.
• The value of planned future improvements, also called the “incremental” or “system development” methodology.
• A combination of these two approaches.

This analysis uses the “Combination Approach,”2 which requires new customers to pay both their fair share of existing system assets as well as their share of the planned future capital improvements needed to provide them with capacity in the City’s water and wastewater system. As a result, new customers connecting to the City’s water and wastewater system would enter as equal participants with existing customers regarding their financial commitment and obligations to the utility.

In its simplest form, capacity fees (also referred to as connection fees, capital facility fees, or system development charges) are calculated by dividing the costs allocated to future development by the number of units of new development anticipated:
• Costs of planned future facilities and improvements required to serve new development are those that can reasonably be allocated to future development. • The number of new units (i.e., growth) are those units projected to occur within the timeframe covered by the capacity fee analysis.

Capacity fees are one-time fees intended to reflect the cost of existing infrastructure and planned improvements available to new services, and place new utility customers or existing customers requesting an increase in service capacity on equal basis from a financial perspective with existing customers. Once new customers are added to the system, they then incur the obligation to pay the same service charges or monthly usage rates that existing customers pay.

This capacity fee study and the recommended fees assume a given level of development activity over the course of the study period based on data available from the City’s 2016 Water Master Plan and the 2016

1 Principles of Water Rates, Fees, and Charges, Manual of Water Supply Practices, M1, AWWA, Seventh Edition, 2017. 2 Method of calculating capacity fees (also known as System Development Fees, Connection Fees, Capital Facility Fees) are set forth in the American Water Works Association’s Principles of Water Rates, Fees and Charges Seventh Edition (2017) pages 311 to 347.

Wastewater Master Plan. The development that occurs may result in both different impacts and fee revenues than those that are calculated in this study. For that reason, regular updates are recommended to adjust the fees to match the needs created by the rate of actual development.

In developing the proposed fees, NBS worked cooperatively with City staff. The fees presented in this study reflect input provided by City staff regarding financial matters, available capacity in the water and wastewater systems, existing asset values, and planned capital improvements.

Section 2 and Section 3 discuss in more detail the development of the water and wastewater capacity fees and present the updated fees recommended for new and upsized connections.

1.3 Existing Capacity Fees
The City currently charges a combined Water/Wastewater Fee, collected and spent for additional water and wastewater facilities identified as needed to serve new development. This list is documented within the City’s Ordinance O-20-20 and is shown in the figure below. The City’s existing capacity fees were last updated in February 2020.

2. Water Capacity Fee Study

2.1 Existing Connections and Projected Future Growth
The City currently has approximately 26,550 equivalent 3/4-inch water meter connections to the water system. The City has implemented 3/4-inch meters as the standard (or base) meter size installed. Figure 2 shows the current number of meters by size connected to the system, meter equivalency factors and meter equivalent units.

Figure 2. Current Water Customers

Larger meters have the potential to use more of the system’s capacity, compared to smaller meters. The potential capacity demanded by each meter is proportional to the maximum hydraulic flow through each meter size as established by the AWWA
3 hydraulic capacity ratios. The AWWA hydraulic capacity ratios (also known as flow factors, or meter equivalencies) used in this study are shown in the fourth column of Figure

1. The maximum flow rate, in gallons per minute (gpm) for each size meter is used to determine the number of equivalent 3/4-inch meter units currently connected.

As an example, a 2-inch meter has a greater capacity, or potential peak demand than a 3/4-inch meter. The “equivalency to a 3/4-inch meter” is calculated by dividing the maximum capacity or flow of larger meters by the capacity of the base (3/4-inch) meter size. The meter capacity factors shown in Figure 1 are the ratio of potential flow through each meter size compared to the flow through a 3/4-inch meter. For example, column 4 in Figure 1 shows that a 2-inch meter is equivalent to 5.33 3/4-inch meters.

The actual number of meters by size is multiplied by the corresponding meter equivalency to calculate the total number of equivalent meters. The number of equivalent meters is used as a proxy for the potential

demand that each customer can place on the water system. A significant portion of a water system’s peak capacity, and in turn the utility’s fixed capital costs, are related to meeting system capacity requirements.

Therefore, the capacity fee for a new connection will be proportional to the service’s meter equivalence.

Figure 3 shows existing and projected service numbers for the water system. The anticipated future connections are based on the City’s planned customer growth rate of 173 meters added annually, for the next 20 years. Existing capacity in the City’s water system is allocated to current and future customers and the percentage assigned to current and future customers is based upon their assigned share of 3/4-inch meter equivalent units. As shown in Figure 2, new customers will be allocated about 4.9% of existing assets and planned assets. This is calculated by taking the expected number of new units (173) divided by the total of equivalent meters (3,555).

Figure 3. Existing and Projected Service Numbers - Water Utility

2.2 Existing and Planned Assets
The capital assets addressed in this study include existing assets and planned capital improvements (i.e. the system buy-in and incremental assets). An important aspect of this study is how the value of existing utility assets is determined. For example, the purchase price does not account for wear and tear, and current book value (purchase price less accumulated depreciation) typically underestimates the “true value” of facilities as it does not account for cost increases over time. Therefore, this study uses the replacement cost new less depreciation (RCNLD) approach to calculate the system buy-in cost bases summarized in Figure 4 to estimate existing asset values, because it provides an up-to-date asset value that reflects estimated cost inflation.

The replacement cost is calculated by escalating the book value of existing assets to current-day values using inflation factors from the Handy-Whitman Index of Public Utility Construction Costs for Water Utility Construction, followed by subtracting depreciation. Figure 4 summarizes the System Buy-In Cost Basis by Asset Category for the water utility. For this analysis, assets that have exceeded their useful life (as defined in the City’s asset records) were considered to have no remaining value.

Most of the system buy-in costs were allocated to current customers based on the 82 percent allocation factor previously shown in Figure 3 (and the 18 percent allocation factor for future customers). Figure 5 shows the allocation of about $50 million system buy-in costs to current and future customers. Future customers are allocated approximately $8.5 million of the existing water utility assets.

Figure 5. Existing Asset Values Allocated to Current & Future Customers - Water Utility

The City’s capital improvement plans for the water utility extend to FY 2024/25. All the planned capital improvement projects allocated using the same allocations found in Figure 2, as these projects benefit both current and future customers. Figure 6 includes a list of future capital improvement projects, where future customers are allocated approximately $31,975,764 of planned asset costs.

of the water utility that future customers will benefit from, once connected. The cash reserves are, in a sense, no different than any other water utility asset. The existing cash reserves allocated to current and future customers are summarized in Figure 7 where this calculation also uses the same percent allocation factors from Figure 3. Future Customers are allocated about $6.1 million of cash reserves.

Figure 7. Cash Reserves Allocated to Future Customers - Water Utility

The water utility currently has two outstanding debt service obligations; therefore, there is an adjustment needed to the cost basis in the capital facility fee calculation to account for it. Since new connections pay their share of existing asset values, including the debt payments on those same assets would double count the asset values included in the capital facility fees. In order to not double charge new customers for this debt, about $2.9 million is credited towards future customers as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8. Debt Service Allocated to Future Customers - Water Utility

2.4 Calculated Capacity Fees – Water Utility
The sum of the existing and future planned asset values (that is, the system buy-in and system development costs), along with the cash and debt adjustments, defines the total cost basis allocated to future customers.

The total adjusted cost basis is then divided by the number of future customers, measured in 3/4-inch meter equivalents, expected to connect to the water utility (that is, the 5,846-meter equivalents) in order to determine the maximum base capacity charge for a 3/4-inch water meter. This calculation is shown in Figure 10.

Figure 10. Summary of New Base Capacity Fees - Water Utility

Based on the system buy-in capacity fee methodology, and the assumptions used in this analysis, NBS has calculated the new capacity fees for various water meter sizes, as shown in Figure 11. The updated fees represent the maximum that the City can charge for new connections.

Figure 11. Updated Water Capacity Fees

2.5 Water Capacity Fee Fundings Statement
The new water capacity fees calculated in this report are based on regulatory requirements and generally accepted industry standards, and are further detailed in Appendix A. This study concludes the following:
• The purpose of the City’s water capacity fee is to ensure that new and upsized connections reimburse and/or mitigate a reasonable portion of the City’s planned capital investment projects. These investments are necessary to accommodate the increased demand for water service.
• The City uses capacity fee proceeds to fund capital investments in the water system, which include the future design and construction of planned facilities. • Capacity fees for new water customers vary depending on the size of the water meter serving the connection. Meter size is generally proportionate to the demands that a parcel places on the water utility system, specifically the peaking requirements related to the meter size.

• Without capital investment in existing facilities, the water system capacity available to serve the needs of future connections would be uncertain. Without planned investments in future facilities, water service would not be sustainable at the level of service received by current users. The total value of planned water system assets that are attributable to serving future connections is identified in Appendix A.
• Upon payment of a capacity fee, a new customer incurs the obligation to pay the same ongoing service rates as existing customers, regardless of the date of connection to the system or the actual start of service. These fees ensure that, over time, ongoing service rates are not disproportionately burdened by the accommodation of system growth.

3. Wastewater Capacity Fee Study

3.1 Existing Connections and Projected Future Growth
Different types of customers have the potential to use more of the wastewater system’s capacity depending on the flow and the strength of wastewater effluent. The potential capacity demanded is therefore proportional to the type of customer (i.e. residential, low-, medium-, or high-strength commercial, etc.).

The number of equivalent dwelling units (EDU) is used as a variable for the potential demand that each customer can place on the wastewater system. A significant portion of a wastewater system’s capacity, and in turn, the utility’s fixed capital costs, are related to meeting system capacity requirements. Therefore, the capital facility fee for a new service will be proportional to the number of EDUs assigned to each connecting customer.

The estimated number of EDU’s to connect to the wastewater system over the next 20 years were estimated using the average total daily flow of current customers at the wastewater treatment plant, which is about 5.21 million gallons per day (MGD). Population projections were obtained from the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan for the City of Colton, which assumes a population growth rate of 1% annually.

The result of the analysis on estimated future customers is summarized in Figure 12.

Figure 12. Estimated Future Customers - Wastewater Utility

The resulting allocation of costs to future customers based on 3,562 new EDU’s, as shown in Figure 13, is

13.5% vs. 86.5% belonging to existing customers.

3.2 Existing and Planned Future Assets
The wastewater utility’s capital assets include existing assets and planned capital improvements (i.e., the system buy-in and incremental assets). As with the water capital facility fee, the estimated replacement cost (RCNLD value) was developed as the cost basis for the new wastewater capital facility fees.

After adjustments to account for assets that were considered to have no remaining value, the resulting RCNLD value of existing assets are summarized in Figure 14 as the System Buy-In Cost Basis.

Figure 14. Summary of Existing Asset Values - Wastewater Utility

Most of the RCNLD costs were allocated to existing users based on the percent allocation factor shown in Figure 12 (and the percent allocations factor for future users). The resulting allocation of existing system assets to existing and future users is shown in Figure 15 where future users are allocated about $9.4 million of existing wastewater assets.

Figure 15. Existing Asset Values Allocated to Future Customers - Wastewater Utility

The City’s capital improvement plans extend through 2042. The estimated cost of planned future improvements is used to calculate the system development component of the capital facility fee. Based on City of Colton Collection System:

the 5.6 percent allocation factor, future customers were allocated about $3.9 million of these future capital project costs, as shown in Figure 16.

Figure 16. Planned Asset Values Allocated to Future Customers - Wastewater Utility

3.3 Adjustments to the Cost Basis
Two adjustments were made to the cost basis to account for existing wastewater cash reserves and outstanding debt. Existing cash reserves are treated as an asset since they are no different than other wastewater assets. The existing cash reserves allocated to future customers is about $1.3 million, as summarized in Figure 17. This calculation also uses the same percent allocation factors from Figure 12.

Figure 17. Cash Reserves Allocated to Future Customers - Wastewater Utility

The credit to the cost basis related to outstanding bonds was included because some existing assets were at least partially funded with revenue bonds that will be paid in future years by the existing customers. Since new connections pay their share of existing asset values, including the remaining outstanding debt principal on those same assets would double count the asset values included in the capital facility fees. For this reason, a credit is given for the value of future principal debt payments to avoid this double charging of new customers. Figure 18 shows the credit provided to future users is about $883,159, or about 13.8% of the total outstanding principal costs.

3.4 Calculated Capital Facilities Fees – Wastewater Utility The sum of the existing and planned asset values (that is, the system buy-in and system development costs), along with the adjustments for existing cash reserves and outstanding principal payments, defines the total cost basis allocated to future customers. Figure 19 summarizes how this cost basis is developed.

Figure 19. Summary of Cost Basis for Future Customers - Wastewater Utility

The total adjusted cost basis is then divided by the number of future customers, measured in EDUs, expected to connect to the system (3,562 EDUs shown in Figure 12). The calculation for the base wastewater capital facility fee is shown in Figure 20.

Figure 20. Summary of New Base Capital Facility Fee – Wastewater Utility

The EDUs assigned to a given customer is a measure of expected impact on the wastewater utility relative to the customer’s expected flow and the strength of effluent (BOD and TSS). One EDU is equivalent to one single family dwelling unit. EDU assignments for connecting customers are based on customer classification (type of use at the property) by City staff and follows LASAN values for flow, BOD and TSS. The EDU assignments are then used to calculate the capital facility fee for connecting customers. Figure 21 summarizes non-residential wastewater capacity charges based on strength loadings for various customer classes.

Figure 21. Summary of Capital Facility Fees of Non-Residential Customers - Wastewater Utility

3.5 Wastewater Capital Facility Fee Findings Statements The new wastewater capacity fees calculated in this study are based on regulatory requirements and generally accepted industry standards, and are further detailed in Appendix B. This study concludes the following findings:
• The purpose of the City’s wastewater capacity fee is to ensure that new connections reimburse and/or mitigate a reasonable portion of the City’s planned capital investments. These investments benefit and/or are necessary to accommodate increased demand for wastewater service.
• The City uses capacity fee proceeds to fund capital investments in the wastewater system, which include the future design and construction of planned facilities. • All parcels seeking permission to connect to the City’s wastewater system are subject to the wastewater capital facility fee, payment of which is a condition of connection approval.

Water & Wastewater Capacity Fee Study Report – City of Colton Prepared by NBS – December 2024 15
• Capacity fees for new wastewater customers vary depending on the estimated number of EDUs the connection will serve, which is generally proportionate to the demands a parcel places on the wastewater utility system. Figure 13 illustrates the number of EDU’s, along with the number of accounts currently connected to the system.
• The City has made investments in wastewater infrastructure and plans to invest further in expanded and upgraded facilities. These investments make possible the availability and continued reliable provision of utility service sufficient to meet demands of growth within the City’s service area.
• Without capital investment in existing facilities, the wastewater system capacity available to serve the needs of future connections would be uncertain. Without planned investments in future facilities, wastewater service would not be sustainable at the level of service enjoyed by current users. Figure 16 identifies the total value of planned wastewater system assets that are attributable to serving future connections.
• Upon payment of a capacity fee, a new customer incurs the obligation to pay the same ongoing service rates as existing customers, regardless of the date of connection to the systems or the actual start of service. Capacity fees ensure that, over time, ongoing service rates are not disproportionately burdened by the accommodation of system growth.

4. Recommendations and Next Steps

4.1 Consultant Recommendations and Next Steps
NBS recommends the City take the following actions:
• Approve and Accept this Study Report: NBS recommends the City Council formally approve and adopt this Study and its recommendations and proceed with the steps outlined below to implement the new capital facility fees. This will provide documentation of the study and the basis for adopting the new capital facility fees.
• Implement New Water and Wastewater Capacity Fees: Based on the analysis presented in this report, the Council should implement the new water and wastewater capacity fees as described in this study.
• Periodically Review Capacity Fees: Any time a City adopts capacity fees, they should be periodically reviewed to incorporate new capital improvement programs, significant repair and replacement projects, or new planning data (i.e. customer growth estimates). This will help ensure the fees generate sufficient revenue to cover the cost of capital projects, support the fiscal health of the City, and ensure future customers invest their fair share of infrastructure costs.
• Annually Update Capacity Fees: NBS recommends applying an inflation factor to the capacity fees on an annual basis. Annually, the City should review the Engineering News Record’s Construction Cost Indices and calculate the percentage change in construction costs and apply that change to the capacity fees to ensure they keep pace with cost inflation.

4.2 Requirements After Capacity Fees are Adopted
There are several requirements to fulfill after the impact fees are adopted. There are accounting, reporting, and other transparency requirements. Any fees collected must be deposited in a separate account or fund.

Agencies must adopt annual reports within 180 days of the close of each fiscal year. These reports should detail what moneys have been collected, the beginning and ending balance of the accounts, how the money was spent, and when the identified projects will be constructed, and any refunds.

California Government Code 66001 (d)(1) requires that “Following the fifth fiscal year following the first deposit into the account or fund, and every five years thereafter, the local agency shall make all of the following findings with respect to that portion of the account or fund remaining unexpended, whether committed or noncommitted:
(A) Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put. (B) Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged. (C) Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing in incomplete improvements identified…
(D) Designate the approximate dates on which the funding referred to in subparagraph (C) is expected to be deposited into the appropriate account or fund.

Attachment: Colton Capacity Fee Report_Water and Wastewater_FINALpdf (4844 : W/WW Capacity Fees)

Water & Wastewater Capacity Fee Study Report – City of Colton Prepared by NBS – December 2024 17
Failure to make these findings could result in refund requirements. It is also good practice to alert finance staff and the implementing department staff on what the funds can be used for.

While the nexus study should be reviewed every few years, the California Government Code requires that the nexus study needs to be updated every 8 years. This implies that the master plans, capital improvement plans, and other documents used in the nexus study be updated as well.

4.3 Principal Assumptions and Considerations
In preparing this study and the recommendations included herein, NBS has relied on a number of principal assumptions and considerations with regard to financial matters, number of customer accounts, asset records, planned capital improvements, and other conditions and events that may occur in the future. This information and assumptions were provided by sources we believe to be reliable, although NBS has not independently verified this data.

While we believe NBS’ use of such information and assumptions is reasonable for the purpose of this Study and its recommendations, some assumptions will invariably not materialize as stated herein or may vary significantly due to unanticipated events and circumstances. Therefore, the actual results can be expected to vary from those projected to the extent that actual future conditions differ from those assumed by us or provided to us by others.

1. Number of new EDU's is estimated based on the additional flow capacity in the plant, divided by the estimated flow per EDU from Table 5. Confirmed via email by City 7/20/2017.

2. Calculation to determine # of current connections in Colton is: Total Estimated Wastewater Flow in Colton (4.32 mgd) from Table 5*1,000,000 / (75 gpcd x 3.5 persons per EDU).

The 75 gpcd estimates are from the City of Colton's 2016 Integrated Sewer Master Plan, page 3-13, Section 3.4. The 3.5 persons/EDU is derived by dividing the City of Colton population by the number of existing sewer connections.

3. Calculation to determine # of current connections in Grand Terrace is: Total Estimated Wastewater Flow in Colton (0.82 mgd) from Table 5 * 1,000,000 / (65 gpcd x 2.5 persons per EDU).

The 65 gpcd estimates are from the City of Colton's 2016 Integrated Sewer Master Plan, page 3-13, Section 3.4. The 2.5 persons/EDU is derived by dividing the City of Grand Terrace population by the number of existing sewer connections.

ITEM NO. 3

STAFF REPORT

DATE: APRIL 15, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: HEIDI DURON, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR SUBJECT: APPROVE AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE SUMMARY

VACATION OF CITY PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY AND APPROVE

AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE DECLARATION
OF CITY “EXEMPT SURPLUS LAND” TO PERMIT
DISPOSITION/SALE OF REAL PROPERTY – 910 HERT STREET,
RESOLUTION NO R-24-25 & R-25-25.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

1. Approve Resolution No. R-24-25 summarily vacating the subject parcel at 910 Hert St. as public right of way pursuant to California Streets and Highways Code sections 8330 et. seq.

2. Approve Resolution No. R-25-25 declaring the subject parcel “exempt surplus land” pursuant to California Government Code sections 54220 et. seq., thereby authorizing the City to move forward with negotiating a disposition/sale of the parcel.

BACKGROUND

The City of Colton owns a small parcel of land located at 910 Hert Street. The land is a remainder parcel that resulted after the construction of La Cadena Drive in the vicinity. La Cadena Drive and Hert St., the two neighboring streets, are improved to their full operational widths per the City’s General Plan, and this parcel is not needed for any further street expansion purposes. It is, therefore, “surplus”. The parcel is approximately 1/3 acre in size. A map of the parcel is attached to this report as Attachment “1”.

Although no agreement has been reached and no application has yet been filed, the owner of the adjacent property to the northwest has informed the City that they intend to develop their site for 3 Packet Pg. 96
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Hert Street Summary Vacation and Declaration of Surplus Land April 15, 2025

multi-family housing. The owner has approached the City expressing an interest in possibly purchasing the City’s parcel and incorporating it into the proposed housing project. Due to its limited size and location, Staff is aware of no other practical purpose for this remainder parcel and is generally supportive of this project and approach. Staff is therefore bringing this matter to the Council to begin the process for sale/disposal of this parcel.

Because the parcel is also currently public street right of way, the City Council must actually take two actions this evening to begin the process for disposal of this parcel: The Council must both vacate the parcel as public right of way and must also declare the parcel as “exempt surplus land”.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

Prior Planning Commission Action:

Before the City Council may summarily vacate a right of way or dispose of a surplus City parcel, California Government Code section 65402 requires the Planning Commission to make written findings that the proposed vacation and disposal of the parcel is consistent with the City’s General Plan. On March 11, 2025, the Colton Planning Commission held a duly noticed public meeting and adopted Resolution No. R -03-25 finding that the proposed summary vacation and surplus property declaration of the right of way parcel located at 910 Hert St. is consistent with the Colton General Plan and directed staff to report the findings of the Planning Commission to the Colton City Council. Resolution No. R-03-25 is attached to this Staff report.

Summary Vacation:

Pursuant to California Streets and Highways Code section 8334(a), after the Planning Commission has made its findings, the City Council may summarily vacate an excess public right-of-way not required for street or highway purposes. As noted above, the two neighboring streets have already been developed to their maximum street widths per the City’s General Plan, and the parcel is not necessary for street or highway purposes.

Staff notified all known local utility companies of the proposed summary vacation. No utility facilities or easements are known to exist in or on the parcel and all public utilities approved the requested summary vacation with no reservations by citing no facilities in the area.

Therefore, the City Council may dispense with a formal street vacation procedure and summarily vacate this parcel via attached Resolution No. R-24-25.

Surplus Land Declaration:

The California Surplus Land Act (Government Code Section 54220 et seq.) (the “Act”) requires all local agencies to prioritize affordable housing, as well as parks and open space, when 3 Packet Pg. 97
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Hert Street Summary Vacation and Declaration of Surplus Land April 15, 2025

disposing of “surplus land.” The Legislature updated the Act significantly in 2019 to expand its requirements. Before a local agency may dispose of land that is no longer necessary for its use, the land must be declared either "surplus land" or "exempt surplus land," as supported by written findings.

For “surplus land,” the City must normally go through a formal process to offer the land to qualifying affordable housing, open space, and other entities and negotiate with responsive parties first before selling the land to another party. However, the Act contains exemptions for certain types of land (“exempt surplus land”) where this formal process does not apply.

One such exemption, pursuant to section 54221(f)(1)(B), applies to land that (i) is less than one - half acre in area, and (ii) is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low - and moderate-income housing purposes. The City’s parcel qualifies for this exemption under the Act because it is less than one -half acre in area and is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open -space or low - and moderate-income housing purposes.

Another such exemption, pursuant to section 54221(f)(1)(E), applies to land that is a former street right-of-way or easement, and is conveyed to an owner of adjacent property. The parcel also qualifies for this exemption under the Act because the parcel is former right -of-way and because the City desires to transfer the parcel to an adjacent property owner.

Adoption of the attached Resolution No. R -25-25 would declare the parcel as “exempt surplus land” pursuant to both of the aforementioned exemptions.

Additionally, under the Department of Housing and Community Development’s (“HCD”) Surplus Land Act Guidelines (“Guidelines”), which are promulgated pursuant to the Surplus Land Act, the City must submit the adopted Resolution to HCD at least 30 days prior to disposal so that HCD can review the exemption declaration. Resolution No. R -25-25 also authorizes this HCD submittal.

FISCAL IMPACTS

None associated with this action. If the parcel is ultimately negotiated and sold to the neighboring property owner, the City will receive the proceeds of the sale.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”), City staff recommends that the Council find that the summary vacation of the parcel as right of way, the designation of the parcel as exempt surplus land and authorization for the City Manager to comply with the summary vacation law and Surplus Land Act do not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378. First, Section 15378 defines a 3 Packet Pg. 98
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Hert Street Summary Vacation and Declaration of Surplus Land April 15, 2025

project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, the action is to merely vacate the right of way and declare the parcel as “exempt surplus land”, which will not result in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Accordingly, the action is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following: “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The actions to summarily vacate as right of way and designate the parcel as “exempt surplus land” constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. Further, the Resolutions do not constitute a binding commitment to develop any particular project or any particular use of the parcel.

of the subject property does not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378. First, Section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, the action is to summarily vacate the subject property and potentially sell it to the neighboring owner, which will not result in either a di rect physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Accordingly, the action is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes fro m its definition of “project” the following: “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The action to summarily vacat e and sell the subject property constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. Further, this Resolution does not constitute a binding commitment to develop any particular project or any particular use of the subject property.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. That the findings and determinations reflected above are true and correct and are incorporated by this reference herein as the cause and foundation for the action taken by and through this Resolution.

SECTION 2. In accordance with Streets and Highways Code sections 8330 et. seq., the City Council finds that the right of way property located at 910 Hert St., between Hert St. and La Cadena Drive, said property being described in attached Exhibit “A”, within the City of Colton, Riverside County, State of California, is unnecessary for present or prospective street or highway purposes, and hereby approves the summary vacation of the same.

SECTION 3. If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Resolution is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution.

SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall cause a certified copy of this resolution to be recorded in the Office of the San Bernardino County Assessor-Recorder-Clerk, attested by the Clerk under seal.

PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED this 15th day of April, 2025.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF CITY OF COLTON
DECLARING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54221 THAT REAL PROPERTY OWNED BY THE CITY LOCATED AT 910 HERT ST. IS

EXEMPT SURPLUS LAND, AND FINDING THAT SUCH DECLARATION IS

NOT A PROJECT SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW UNDER THE

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT

THE CITY COUNCIL FINDS AND DETERMINES AS FOLLOWS:

A. The City of Colton (the “City”) is the owner in fee simple of that certain real property described in attached Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and incorporated herein, which property is approximately 15,200 square feet in size (0.35 acres) and is located at 910 Hert Street within City of Colton (“Property”); and

B. The Property is less than one half acre in area (21,780 square feet) and it is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate-income housing purposes; and

C. The Property is also former right-of-way; and

D. The City no longer has any use for the Property; and

E. The Surplus Land Act, Government Code sections 54220 et seq. (as amended, the “Act”), applies when a local agency disposes of “surplus land,” as that term is defined in Government Code section 54221; and

F. The Property is “surplus land” under the Act, because it is land owned in fee simple by the City for which the City Council will take formal action (in the form of adoption of this resolution) in a regular public meeting declaring that the land is surplus and is not necessary for the City’s use; and

G. The Property may be declared “exempt surplus land” if it is less than one -half acre in area and it is not contiguous to state or local agency property used for open-space or low- or moderate-income housing (Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B)); and

H. Here the Property is less than one-half acre in area and is not contiguous to state or local agency property used for open-space or low- or moderate-income housing; and

I. The Property may also be declared “exempt surplus land” if it is a former right-of- way and is conveyed to an owner of adjacent property (Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(E)); and

J. The Property is former right -of-way and the City desires to convey it to the owner of adjacent property to the northwest; and

K. None of the characteristics listed under Government Code section 54221(f)(2) apply to the Property.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. That the findings and determinations reflected above are true and correct and are incorporated by this reference herein as the cause and foundation for the action taken by and through this Resolution.

SECTION 2. The City Council hereby finds that (i) the Property is no longer necessary for the City’s use, (ii) the Property is smaller than one-half acre in area because it is approximately 15,200 square feet in area, and (iii) the Property is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate-income housing purposes. Furthermore, the City Council hereby finds that (i) the Property is former right -of-way and that (ii) City desires to transfer the Property to an owner of adjacent property. Finally, none of the characteristics listed under Government Code section 54221(f)(2) apply to the Property.

SECTION 3. The City Council therefore declares that the Property is “exempt surplus land ” pursuant to section 54221(f)(1)(B) of the Act and pursuant to section 54221(f)(1)(E) of the Act.

SECTION 4. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”), the City Council finds that the mere designation of the Property as “exempt surplus land” and authorization for the City Manager to comply with the Surplus Land Act do not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378. First, Section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reason ably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, the action is to declare the Property as “exempt surplus land”, which will not result in either a direct physical change in the environment or a rea sonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Accordingly, the action is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following:
“organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The action to designate the Property as “exempt surplus land” constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. Further, the Resolution does not constitute a binding commitment to develop any particular project or any particular use of the Property.

SECTION 5. The City Manager or designee is hereby authorized and directed to send a copy of this Resolution to the California Department of Housing and Community Development in accordance with the requirements of Section 400(e) of the Act’s Guidelines.

SECTION 6. If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Resolution is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution.

COLTON, CALIFORNIA, FINDING THAT THE SUMMARY VACATION

THE PLANNING COMMISSION FINDS AND DETERMINES AS FOLLOWS:

A. The City proposes to summarily vacate and declare as surplus a parcel of City - owned right-of-way property that is approximately 15,200 square feet in size (0.35 acres) and is located at 910 Hert Street.

B. The property is not necessary for future street or highway purposes and the City has been requested to negotiate a sale of it to the neighboring property owner to the north for development of a potential housing project.

C. The summary vacation would be conducted pursuant to Sections 8330 et. seq. of California Streets and Highways Code, said right of way property being described in attached Exhibit “A”, within the City of Colton, Riverside County, State of California, and the City would also declare the property surplus under Section s 54220 et seq. of the California Government Code.

D. California Government Code Section 65402(a) provides that if a general plan or part thereof has been adopted, then no real property shall be acquired by dedication or otherwise for street, square, park or other public purposes, and no real property shall be disposed of, no street shall be vacated or abandoned, and no public building or structure shall be constructed or authorized, if the adopted general plan or part thereof applies thereto, until the location, purpose and extent of such acquisition or dispo sition, such street vacation or abandonment, or such public building or structure have been submitted to and reported upon by the Planning Commission as to conformity with said adopted general plan or part thereof, and that the Planning Commission shall render its report as to conformity with said adopted general plan or part thereof within forty (40) days after the matter was submitted to it, or such longer period of time as may be designated by the City Council

E. On March 11, 2025, the Colton Planning Commission held a regularly scheduled meeting and reviewed the proposed summary vacation and disposition of the subject property and found that this was consistent with the 2013 Colton General Plan, as amended in 2016.

F. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”), the Planning Commission finds that the mere summary vacation and potential disposition of the subject property do not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378. First, Section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the enviro nment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).)

property and potentially sell it to the neighboring owner, which will not result in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Accordingly, the action is not a “project” subje ct to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following: “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The action to summarily vacate and sell the subject property constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it the refore is not subject to CEQA. Further, this Resolution does not constitute a binding commitment to develop any particular project or any particular use of the subject property.

SECTION 3. According to the 2013 General Plan Mobility Element (amended in 2016), there are no streets existing or proposed that would be impacted by the proposed summary vacation.
