AGENDA BILL
Agenda Item No. 7.F.

Date: May 21, 2024
To: El Cerrito City Council
From: Shannon Bassi, Senior Human Resources Analyst, City Management Subject: Resolution to Amend the City's Classification Plan

ACTION PROPOSED
Adopt a resolution amending the City's Classification Plan to 1) authorize revisions to the existing classifications of Public Works Director/City Engineer, Recycling Operations Supervisor, Maintenance Operations Supervisor, Associate Engineer, Senior Engineer, Program Manager, and Senior Program Manager and 2) authorize new classifications of Environmental Services Manager and Facilities and Maintenance Manager.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Per Section 3.10.050 of the El Cerrito Municipal Code, the City Council is responsible for adopting Personnel Rules that govern the City's civil service system and Classification Plan. This includes any revisions or amendments to position classifications and job descriptions. The recently completed Classification and Compensation Study provided a valuable opportunity to review all of the City's classifications, and propose changes and modifications where needed to accurately reflect the work of City staff.

The classification portion of the study focused on creating and modifying job classifications that accurately represent the body of work that staff perform, create methods of effective recruitment, retain a talented workforce, and maintain an emphasis on providing excellent customer service. Additionally, each classification was reviewed through an equity lens to ensure the City is creating and promoting a diverse workforce.

The Human Resources Division and the project consultant Koff and Associates worked continuously through the study's process with Department and Division Managers, bargaining units, and other City staff to review all class specifications throughout the City to confirm they are representative of the organizational changes, City services, and duties that have evolved. As a result, all the City's job descriptions were revised, and must now be reviewed by the City Council for final approval. Given the number of job descriptions evaluated, staff plans to bring back a set of proposed classifications to the City Council at each Council meeting until all job descriptions are approved.

The attached proposed job descriptions are presented for City Council's review and approval:

AGENDA BILL
Agenda Item No. 8.A.

Date: May 21, 2024
To: El Cerrito City Council
From: Claire Coleman, Budget/Financial Services Manager, Finance Department
Subject: FY 2024-25 Master Fee Schedule

ACTION PROPOSED
Conduct a public hearing, and upon conclusion adopt a resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Master Fee Schedule.

BACKGROUND
The Master Fee Schedule, which includes all City user fees, charges for services, and business license tax rates, is revised annually as required by El Cerrito Municipal Code §4.01.010.

Adjustments to fees and charges for service are intended to cover changes in the City’s cost of providing programs and services. Each year, changes in costs are analyzed and adjustments are proposed. In some cases, a proposed fee may not fully cover the cost of the program or services, but maintaining or reducing the fee may be necessary to maintain alignment with other cities and organizations that have comparable programs.

Increases in fees must also be analyzed to be consistent with legal restrictions and regulatory guidelines.

The City utilized inflation statistics from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Western Metropolitan Area (San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward) as well as impacts from the City’s labor contracts and other costs of providing services. After the proposed changes, City fees do not exceed the costs of providing services for which the fees are charged.

ANALYSIS
The FY 2024-25 proposed fee changes reflect an approximate increase of 4.0% for most fees, excluding fees governed by regulatory or other restrictions or allowable cost recovery recommendations. Several fees are recommended for elimination or consolidation for administrative ease, and several new fees are proposed to support new services or state mandates. The primary adjustment factors include cost of living adjustments for City staff, inflationary impacts on the City's costs, and/or re-evaluation of costs for services.

Attachment 2, FY 2024-25 Proposed Master Fee Schedule, details proposed fee changes, other adjustments, or movement/relocation of fees to other fee subcategories.

Agenda Item No. 8.A.

STRATEGIC PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
This action supports the City’s Strategic Plan Goal(s) of:
• High Performing Organization by allowing the City to ensure that revenue meets the cost of providing services.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
This section is not applicable to this agenda item.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The revenue generated by fees, charges for service, and business license taxes will be included in the City’s FY 2024-25/FY 2025-26 proposed budget based on the Master Fee Schedule approved by the City Council.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
Except for Development Fees, which will become effective 60 days after approval of this schedule, all fees listed in the Master Fee Schedule will become effective July 1, 2024, on the first day of the new fiscal year.

As required by California Government Code §66018(a), the City is required to conduct a public hearing prior to adopting Planning, Building, and some other new fees or fee increases. Notification of this public hearing was completed in accordance with State law and the El Cerrito Municipal Code. Notice was emailed to individual/entities that have previously requested to be notified regarding development fees on May 6, 2024; and published in the West County Times on May 11, 2024, and May 17, 2024.

WHEREAS, utilizing a rounding factor provides ease to our customers and our staff in the payment of these fees; and

Environmental Review (CEQA)
Note: Fees are based on the City's Cost Allocation Study to cover the cost of processing applications for all projects. The Planning Manager may determine a project to be unusually complex or time consuming and require a deposit at the time of application for estimated staff, consultant, and City Attorney costs. If a standard fee has previously been paid, additional deposits may be required to cover extraordinary costs resulting from unforeseen complexities, delays or extra meetings. Hourly staff costs are based on employee wages and benefits, overhead, equipment and supervision, as determined by the City’s Cost Allocation Study. Charges for third-party consultants will equal actual contract costs plus 30% administrative charge. Fees for entitlements requiring a public hearing and other similar applications include one review of the initial application submittal and review of up to two resubmittals. Review of additional resubittals will incur additional fees based on staff time.

NEW CONSTRUCTION AND OTHER FEES BASED ON VALUATION
The following table is used to calculate permit (Issuance and Inspection) fees based on the valuation of all new residential, commercial, and industrial construction either not covered in or referenced by the Miscellaneous Building Permit Fee table.

Valuation will be determined by the 1997 UBC Valuation Table and adjusted by the S.F. Bay Area Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index increase from 1997 to June 2023 or by actual contract price when the type of construction is not represented in the Valuation Table. Plan review is additional and is calculated at 65% of the established permit fee.

This schedule is effective 7/1/2024 to 6/30/2025

AGENDA BILL
Agenda Item No. 8.B.

Date: May 21, 2024
To: El Cerrito City Council
From: Crystal Reams, Finance Director/City Treasurer, Finance Department; Yvetteh Ortiz, Public Works Director/City Engineer, Public Works Department
Subject: Public Hearing to Confirm the Diagram and to Levy the Assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-25 for Landscape and Lighting Assessment District No. 1988-1

ACTION PROPOSED
Conduct a public hearing, and upon conclusion adopt a resolution setting the annual Landscape and Lighting Assessment for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 as $72 per singlefamily residential parcel, and as noted in the Engineer’s Report for other classes of properties.

BACKGROUND
On June 6, 1988, the City Council established Assessment District No. 1988-1 pursuant to the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972. The purpose of this Landscape and Lighting Assessment District (LLAD) is to raise funds to support improvements and maintenance of the City’s park areas, landscaping areas, and street lighting. Every year since 1988, this Assessment District has generated approximately $785,000 to support LLAD activities.

In November 1996, the LLAD was approved by the voters and therefore complies with the provisions of Proposition 218. Any increase in the assessment fee level would be subject to Proposition 218’s voter approval requirement.

In order to impose this annual assessment, the City Council must annually authorize an Engineer’s Report to identify the costs, uses, and benefits of the parcels within the Assessment District from the services and improvements funded by te assessment. As detailed in the Engineer’s Report, the revenues are used for eligible activities including staff salaries and wages, utility costs for the District, landscaping services and supplies, and park maintenance.

ANALYSIS
The City Council authorized the LLAD annual report on April 2, 2024, and the Engineer of Record, NBS Local Government Solutions (NBS), prepared and delivered the Engineer’s Report on April 5, 2024.

In order for these assessments to be imposed, the City Council must accept the Engineer’s Report and conduct a public hearing to hear comments on their imposition.

At the May 7, 2024 City Council meeting, the City Council set the date of the public Agenda Packet Page 116 of 225
Agenda Item No. 8.B.
hearing for May 21, 2024. Also, the City is required to cause the notice of the public hearing to be published one time at least ten days prior to the hearing in a newspaper of general circulation. Such a notice was published in the West County Times on May 11, 2024.

The Engineer's Report is attached as Exhibit A to the resolution. In addition, a full listing of assessed parcels and related charges is available by contacting the Office of the City Clerk at [email protected] or 510-215-4305.

The purpose of this public hearing is to confirm the diagram and the assessment, as appearing in the Engineer’s Report. The procedures for conducting the public hearing and receiving protests are the same as for forming the District; however, there are no provisions for majority protest.

The California Streets and Highways Code Section 22631 specifies the options available to the City Council, as follows:

If a majority protest has not been filed, the legislative body may adopt a resolution confirming the diagram and assessment, either as originally proposed or as changed by it. The adoption of the resolution shall constitute the levy of an assessment for the fiscal year referred to in the assessment.

STRATEGIC PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
This action supports the City's Strategic Plan Goal(s) of:
• High Performing Organization; and
• Livability and Belonging; and
• Infrastructure and Amenities: and
• Environmental Sustainability.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
This section is not applicable to this agenda item.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
NBS estimates that the current rate of assessment will generate approximately $801,662 of revenue, which is included in the total revenue estimate for the City’s FY 2024-25 Budget.

The LLAD assessment rate has not increased since LLAD’s creation in 1988. When the LLAD was established, it relied on a General Fund contribution of $428,000 in addition to the LLAD revenues of approximately $750,000 to fund the planned landscaping and lighting activities. The LLAD does not contain a provision for inflation and thus has not kept pace with escalation of costs for personnel, utilities, lighting and landscaping maintenance contract services, and supplies since it was first created.

Agenda Packet Page 117 of 225
Agenda Item No. 8.B.

A proposed Assessment District with increased rates was presented to the City’s property owners during a ballot proceeding in 2006, but a majority protest was filed, and the increased assessment rates were not imposed. As the sources and uses of all City revenues are currently under review, the cost for LLAD eligible expenditures in excess of the assessment revenue will be covered by City contributions from other appropriate funding sources or expenses will be reduced to ensure that the LLAD expenditures do not exceed available LLAD revenues in FY 2024-25. The City Council appropriates expenditures of these funds as part of its annual budget process.

In FY 2023-24 the General Fund covers expenditures for landscape maintenance service contracts in the amount of approximately $685,821. City staff anticipate that additional or alternative funding sources will need to be identified in FY 2024-25 to maintain the current levels of service.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The provisions of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 require that a public hearing be held prior to adopting a resolution levying the annual assessment.

2. OVERVIEW

2.1 Introduction
The District provides for the installation, maintenance, and servicing of public lighting, landscaping, and park and recreational facility improvements located within the incorporated limits of the City.

The costs to acquire and construct major new facilities to be maintained will generally be paid by sources other than District funds. While the District pays for the maintenance costs associated with various park and recreation programs, the costs of the programs themselves are not supported by District funds.

2.2 Plans and Specifications
The services performed are primarily maintenance and generally do not require plans. The plans and specifications to the extent that they exist, include but are not limited to:
• Conceptual plans
• Street lighting maps, detail lists, schedules, and PUC schedules • Street Tree Planting Master Plan
• Maintenance specifications, programs, and policies for:
- Landscaping
- Medians
- Graffiti abatement
- Recreation buildings
- Community and neighborhood park grounds
- Weed abatement
- Creeks and trails
- Litter and debris removal
• Water, gas, and electric company requirements, policies, and specifications These documents are available in the City’s Public Works Department and Recreation Department offices and are included in this report by reference. A diagram indicating the location of the improvements to be serviced and maintained is included in Section 4 of this report.

3. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS
The improvements to be installed, serviced, and maintained generally consist of the following:

Street Lighting
Residential Lighting - The District provides funding for street lighting throughout the City, which is typically located at intersections and at mid-block. Spacing of lights is typically 500 feet, although this distance may vary depending on topographic and right-of-way restraints.

Medium-Intensity Commercial Lighting - Industrial and some commercial districts have closer spacing of street lighting, typically at 250-foot intervals. Commercial districts on San Pablo Avenue and other arterial streets require a higher level of lighting intensity.

Medians and Rights-of-Way
Corresponding numbers on the map in Section 4 depict the location of medians. Landscaped medians are located on the following arterial streets:

1. San Pablo Ave. (entire length)

2. Carlson Blvd. (north City limit to Adams St.)

3. Moeser Ln. (San Pablo Ave. to Pomona Ave. and Shevlin Dr. to Arlington Blvd.)

4. Central Ave. (Carlson Blvd. to San Pablo Ave. and Liberty St. to Richmond St.)

5. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
The estimated net cost of the improvements has been divided among the several parcels of land within the District in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by the parcels, respectively, from the improvements. The method used to apportion the cost among the benefiting properties is as follows:
1) Residential costs were identified as the total estimated cost to provide landscaping and lighting on residentially zoned streets plus 98% of the net cost to maintain park and recreational facilities, plus a prorated share of the incidental expenses. 2) Commercial costs were identified as the total estimated cost to provide landscaping, lighting, and sweeping to frontage on commercially zoned streets, plus 2% of the net cost to maintain park and recreational facilities, plus a prorated share of the incidental expenses.

The net residential cost was apportioned within residentially zoned areas and the net commercial cost was apportioned within commercially zoned areas as follows:

RESIDENTIALLY ZONED AREAS
Occupied Single Family Residential (SFR) properties were assumed to benefit equally and were assessed the same. Multifamily Residential (MFR) parcels and condominiums were assumed to benefit less, due to increased density and private maintenance costs. MFR units were assessed 75% of the SFR rate for the first twenty units and 50% of the SFR rate for each additional unit over twenty.

Churches and private schools in residentially zoned areas were assessed for direct frontage benefits received. Commercial land uses in residential neighborhoods were assessed at the Zone 3 frontage rate, plus the commercial park assessment rate. One hundred feet of corner relief, or the side street dimension, whichever was less, was credited to corner parcels. Open space owned by private parties, utilities, and the golf course were assessed for one-half the Zone 3 frontage assessment rates. Public property was not assessed.

Vacant lots were assessed at one-half the amount calculated for a similar occupied parcel. Vacant land and open space were assessed for frontage benefit at one-half the zone rate. Assessments for common areas were considered to be included in the assessment for the various residential units.

Unusual or exceptional parcels were assessed according to the judgment of the engineer. Assessments for SFR properties that are divided by the City boundary were calculated by multiplying the rate for a SFR by the ratio of land area in the City’s boundary.

COMMERCIALLY ZONED PROPERTY
Three zones of commercial street landscaping, lighting, and sweeping service are identified on the assessment diagram. The cost per foot to provide services to frontage on San Pablo Avenue (Zone 1) was estimated to be six times the cost of Commercial Zones 2 and 3 streets. Parcels with San Pablo Avenue frontage were assessed $2.00 per front foot for direct benefit received.

Parcels with frontage in Zones 2 and 3 were assessed $0.33 per foot, or one-sixth the San Pablo Avenue assessment. Corner lots were credited one hundred feet or the side yard dimensions, whichever was less.

Parcels with frontage in more than one zone were assessed for the applicable frontage in each zone.

Agenda Packet Page 131 of 225
City of El Cerrito
Fiscal Year 2024/25 Annual Report – Landscape and Lighting District 1988-1 8 The remaining costs to provide street landscaping, lighting, and sweeping within the commercially zoned areas, including a prorated share of the incidental expenses, were assessed to the properties located on Zones 1 and 2 streets in proportion to parcel area.

Areas and frontages were calculated using information on file with the County Assessor. Areas and frontages are approximations intended only as indicators of benefit.

The assessments for parcels within the El Cerrito Plaza and the Del Norte Marketplace shopping centers were calculated by totaling the frontage and area assessments and then prorating the total according to area.

SFR residential parcels in commercially zoned areas were presumed not to benefit more from increased levels of lighting and landscaping and were assessed at SFR rates.

MFR parcels in commercially zoned areas were assessed at MFR rates less 20%, representing a credit for the residential street lighting and sweeping benefit not received. MFR parcels in commercially zoned areas were also assessed for direct frontage benefits received. The commercial park and area assessment was not applied to MFR parcels.

Private institutions within the commercially zoned areas were assessed for the applicable frontage benefit but were not assessed for commercial area or park benefit.

Motels were assessed as commercial properties.

Vacant lots were assessed at one-half the occupied rate.

Public properties were not assessed.

Unusual or exceptional properties were assessed according to the judgment of the engineer.

8. ASSESSMENT ROLL
Parcel identification, for each lot or parcel subject to the annual levy, shall be based on the Contra Costa County Assessor’s (the “Assessor”) secured roll data for the applicable year in which this report is prepared and is incorporated herein by reference.

A listing of Assessor’s parcels subject to the annual levy for Fiscal Year 2024/25, along with the amounts levied, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein by reference. Based on the Assessor’s secured roll data, current Assessor’s parcels, including corrected and/or new Assessor’s parcels, assessment amounts will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the Contra Costa County Auditor/Controller.

The annual amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the assessment methodology and rates approved in this report. Therefore, if a single Assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple Assessor’s parcels, the levy amounts applied to each of the new Assessor’s parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved assessment methodology and rates rather than a proportionate share of the original levy amount.

AGENDA BILL
Agenda Item No. 8.C.

Date: May 21, 2024
To: El Cerrito City Council
From: Crystal Reams, Finance Director/Treasurer, Finance Department; Yvetteh Ortiz, Public Works Director/City Engineer, Public Works Department
Subject: Public Hearing regarding Fiscal Year 2024-25 Storm Drain Annual Report and method of collecting storm drain fees

ACTION PROPOSED
Conduct a public hearing and upon conclusion adopt a resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Storm Drain Annual Report and directing that Storm Drain Fees be collected on the property tax rolls.

BACKGROUND
In March 1993, the voters of the City of El Cerrito approved the issuance of $6.3 million in revenue bonds for the reconstruction of the City’s storm drain system. In June 1993, the City Council adopted Ordinance 93-4, which amends Title 4 (Revenue and Finance) of the El Cerrito Municipal Code by adding a new Chapter 4.44, providing for the imposition and collection of Storm Drain Fees to pay the debt service on the revenue bonds and to fund the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and operation of storm drain facilities. Ordinance 93-4 set the Storm Drain Fee at $58 for each single-family residential property and other amounts for other property types.

Ordinance 93-4 further provided that the Storm Drain Fees are to be collected on the property tax roll, based on amounts specified in an annual written report. Attachment 2 to this staff report is the FY 2024-25 Storm Drain Annual Report (Annual Report) which contains the description of each parcel classification receiving storm drain services and the amount of the annual fee for each parcel. A full listing of assessed parcels and related charges is available by contacting the Office of the City Clerk at [email protected]cerrito.ca.us or 510-215-4305. The engineering firm of NBS Local Government Solutions prepared the Annual Report.

The City must annually conduct a public hearing to consider the method of collecting the Storm Drain Fees. Notice of such a public hearing must be made at least twice within a two-week period, as specified in Government Code §6066, as follows:

Publication of notice pursuant to this section shall be once a week for two successive weeks. Two publications in a newspaper published once a week or oftener, with at least five days between the respective publication dates, not counting such publication dates, are sufficient. The period of notice commences upon the first day of publication and terminates at the end of the fourteenth day, including therein the first day.

Agenda Packet Page 139 of 225
Agenda Item No. 8.C.

The City met this notification requirement by publishing the notice of public hearing in the West County Times on May 11, 2024 and May 17, 2024.

This hearing is not for consideration of the amounts of the Storm Drain Fees, which were already set by the City Council by adoption of Ordinance 93-4; however, the City Council may consider corrections to the use classification of properties in the Annual Report.

ANALYSIS
The City Council needs to determine whether a majority protest exists with respect to the method of collecting the Storm Drain Fees. If a majority protest is lodged against collecting these fees on the property tax roll (as a method of collection), the Storm Drain Fees shall be collected on behalf of the City by a public utility and the City Council would be required to authorize negotiation of an agreement with such a utility.

If the City Council finds that protest is made by the owners of a majority of the parcels of property described in the Annual Report, then the Annual Report shall not be adopted.

The administrative costs of collecting the Storm Drain Fee through utility services are substantially higher than by using the property tax bill. Also, if collected through a utility, the Storm Drain Fees would not constitute a lien against any parcel or parcels of land, which would make delinquent collections far more cumbersome and costly.

Since the amount of the Storm Drain Fee is based on property use, the public hearing also provides an opportunity for property owners to contest the fee amount based on the actual use of their property. The City Council may accordingly adjust the fee amount based on the property use.

The adoption of the Annual Report requires the same two-thirds vote as was required to enact Ordinance 93-4. If approved, the Annual Report must be filed with the County Auditor-Controller not later than August 10, 2024, per California Health and Safety Code Section 5474.4, as follows:

On or before the tenth day of August of each year following such final determination, the legislative body shall certify to the auditor a list of the lots or parcels of land, as they appear on the current assessment roll, subject to such fees or charges and the amounts of the installments of such fees or charges and interest to be entered against such lots or parcels on the assessment roll.

STRATEGIC PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
This action supports the City's Strategic Plan Goal(s) of:
• High Performing Organization; and
• Infrastructure and Amenities.

Agenda Item No. 8.C.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
This section is not applicable to this agenda item.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The annual Storm Drain Fee will continue to be assessed at $58 for each single-family residential unit. Such a rate is expected to generate annual revenues of approximately $709,170, which is included in the total revenue estimate for the City’s FY 2024-25 Budget. The last debt service payment on the Storm Drain Revenue Bonds was paid in FY 2013-14. Therefore, the FY 2024-25 proceeds of the Storm Drain Fees will be used to fund storm drain improvements, maintenance, and operations, which include personnel, contract services, infrastructure supplies, and City Administration. The City Council appropriates expenditures of these funds as part of its annual budget process.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
California Health and Safety Code Section 5470 et seq. requires that a public hearing be held prior to adopting a resolution to accept the Annual Report and levying the annual Storm Drain Fees. The City has complied with the minimum public notice requirements.

Fiscal Year 2024/25 Annual Report – Storm Drain Reconstruction Project 1

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On March 2, 1993, the qualified voters of the City of El Cerrito (the “City”) approved the issuance of revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $6.3 million to finance the first phase of the reconstruction of the City’s storm drain system. The qualified voters also approved the repayment of those bonds through the imposition of an annual storm drain fee on property within the City.

Section 5470, et seq. of the California Health and Safety Code authorizes cities to enact an ordinance, approved by a two-thirds vote of the members of the legislative body, establishing fees and charges for services and facilities furnished by the City in connection with its storm drain system. The proceeds of these fees and charges may be used only for the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and operation of its storm drain facilities, including the repayment of principal and interest on bonds issued to finance the construction or reconstruction of such facilities.

According to the ordinance establishing the storm drain fee, the storm drain fees and charges may be used exclusively for the purposes of the storm drain system and for the payment of interest and redemption, including premiums payable from the calling of bonds, for those bonds authorized by the qualified voters on March 2, 1993, and for the payment of interest and redemption, including premiums payable from the calling of bonds, for any other bonds for storm drain construction or reconstruction which may be authorized in the future, provided that such bonds are approved in the manner required by California law.

The proposed Fiscal Year 2024/25 rates for the storm drain fee are as follows:

Parcel Classification Rate
Single Family Residential $58.00 per unit
Multi Family Residential 2 through 20 units $43.50 per unit Multi Family Residential over 20 units $870.00 plus $29.00 for each unit over 20 Commercial/Industrial $870.00 per Acre
Institutional (Churches, Schools, Fraternal and
Service Organizations) $406.00 per Acre
Golf Courses, Cemeteries, Vacant Land $11.60 per Acre
The following table summarizes the estimated Fiscal Year 2024/25 annual levy by classification of parcel.

These amounts are subject to change based upon Contra Costa County’s final secured roll data.

2. FEES

2.1 Fee Methodology
The number of Equivalent Residential Units (“ERUs”) was determined for each parcel based upon an estimate of the impervious surface associated with the use of the property. 1) Single Family (detached) Residential (“SFR”) parcels were assumed to have an average of 2,900 sq. ft. of impervious surface. Approximately 90% of the properties in the City are SFRs. These parcels were assigned 1.0 ERU.
2) Multi Family dwelling unit complexes of up to 20 units were assigned 0.75 ERU (2,175 sq. ft) of impervious surface area per unit. Complexes of more than 20 units were assigned 15.0 ERU plus 0.5 ERU (1,450 sq. ft) for each unit over 20.
3) Commercial/Industrial uses were assigned 15.0 ERU (43,560/2,900 sq. ft.) of impervious surface area per acre.
4) Institutional uses such as Churches, Schools, Fraternal and Service Organizations were assigned 7.0 ERU (21,000 sq. ft.) of impervious surface area per acre based upon the Contra Costa County Report on Stormwater Utility Assessment dated March 1994 (County Report). 5) Golf courses, cemeteries, and other open spaces were assigned 0.2 ERU (580 sq. ft.) per acre based upon the County Report.

The storm drain fee for a parcel is calculated by multiplying the number of ERU assigned to such parcel by the rate per ERU. The rate for Fiscal Yar 2024/25 is $58.00/ERU.

The following table shows a breakdown of the classification of parcels by Contra Costa County Use Code and the associated rates for Fiscal Year 2024/25:

Parcel Classification

Use Code (1)(2)(3)(4) ERU (5) Rates

Fiscal Year 2024/25 Annual Report – Storm Drain Reconstruction Project 3

2.2 Collection of Fees and Charges
The storm drain fees and charges may be collected on the tax roll in the same manner, by the same persons, and at the same time as, together with and not separately from, the City’s general taxes.

The City Council will have prepared each year, prior to the commencement of the fiscal year, a written report which will be filed with the City. The report is to contain a description of each parcel of real property receiving storm drain services and the amount of the annual fee and charge for each parcel. This charge will be computed in conformity with the fees and charges prescribed in the report.

2.3 Annual Hearing
Each year, prior to the commencement of the fiscal year, the City Council will hold a public hearing at which the City Council will hear and consider all objections and protests, if any, to the written report. The City Council may continue the hearing from time to time. If the City Council finds that protest is made by the owners of a majority of the parcels of property described in the report, then the report will not be adopted. In the event of such majority protest, the storm drain fees and charges will be collected with the rates for any other publicly or privately owned public utility through agreement with such utility. If collected in this manner, the storm drain fees and charges will not constitute a lien against any parcel or parcels of land.

2.4 Notice
Notice of the filing of the report and of the time and place of hearing thereon, is to be published once a week for two consecutive weeks prior to the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation printed, published or distributed in the City.

AGENDA BILL
Agenda Item No. 9.A.

Date: May 21, 2024
To: El Cerrito City Council
From: Crystal Reams, Finance Director/City Treasurer, Finance Department Subject: FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget Quarterly Update through March 2024

ACTION PROPOSED
Receive and file an update on City General Fund revenues and expenses for FY 2023- 24 through March 2024.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The El Cerrito City Council adopted an annual Budget for FY 2023-24 on June 20, 2023. The Council has closely monitored the City’s budget and financial position and directed City staff to submit quarterly General Fund financial update reports.

The General Fund Update (Attachment 1) includes information on revenues and expenditures and lists the year-to-date totals by classification and by department. This report summarizes the major General Fund revenue and expenditure categories through March 31, 2024 on a cash basis and includes comparisons to the prior year's budget. Similar to the first quarter reports from prior fiscal years, revenue cycles for many revenue sources - including property taxes - occur in the second, third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Consequently, revenue receipts are not realized in equal quarterly amounts.

The following are FY 2023-24 highlights occurring for the report period of January 1, 2024 through March 31, 2024 and reflect preliminary unaudited cash basis information:

1. Total revenue was $31.8 million, approximately 65% of the adopted FY 2023-24 budget. As a reminder, property taxes are the City's largest income category and are received in December and April each year. The majority of revenues are nondepartmental, as they are general and not allocated to one department.

2. Real property transfer taxes are still performing under projections reflected in the amended FY 2023-24 budget, which is slightly less than the prior fiscal year as reflected in the amended budget for this category. The City Council approved staff's recommended budget adjustment to lower the budgeted amount by $1 million at mid-year.

3. Total expenditures were $38.9 million, or 71% of the amended budget, which is slightly under for the quarter.

4. Personnel costs of $26 million include all personnel related costs. Personnel is the largest component of General Fund expenditures and is trending at just Agenda Packet Page 150 of 225
Agenda Item No. 9.A.
under 75% of the amended FY 2023-24 budget.

STRATEGIC PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
This report is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan Goal High-Performing Organization: Ensure the City maintains a strong financial position – and will allow the City Manager to develop a plan to ensure that Citywide revenue meets the cost of providing Citywide services, including adequate reserves in the face of significant unanticipated revenue shortfalls. It further ensures procedures that represent best practices in financial management.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
This section is not applicable to this agenda item.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
General Fund revenues and expenditures for FY 2023-24, both overall and by department, are tracking slightly lower for revenues and expenditures for the 3rd quarter of the fiscal year. Staff continues to monitor revenue and expenditure trends as the FY 2024-25 & 2025-26 budgets are developed.
