AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 1344 - An Ordinance of the City of Folsom Amending Sections 3.50.020, 3.50.040 and 3.50.050 and
Repealing Section 3.50.060 of the Folsom oal Code
Pertaining to Cost Recovery of Certain City Services (Second Reading and Adoption)
FROM: Community Development Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Move to conduct a second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 1344 - An Ordinance of the City of Folsom Amending Sections 3.50.020,3.50.040 and 3.50.050 and repealing Section 3.50.060 of *1s Folsom Municipal Code pertainine to cost recovery of certain CitY services.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Chapter 3.50 "Fee and Service Charge Revenue/Cost Comparison System" of the Folsom Municipal Code (FMC) mandates a specific percentage of costs that are required to be recovered by fees and service charges for development, public safety, recreation, maintenance, administrative and financial services. This list was created based on a cost control system study performed in 1987. The list includes several services that either no longer exist or have been modified substantially since 1987 anddoes not include several newer services that the City has performed since that time. Chapter 3.50 also currently lists the schedule for the review of each fee.
While Council regularly reviews and approves updated fee schedules for individual departments, these fee schedules may include services that are not specifically listed in FMC Chapter 3.50. In addition to the frequency of fee reviews, the Chapter also includes the percentage of cost recovery required for each fee. However, Council may wish to modiff the percentage of cost recovery for certain fees and service charges based on considerations such as community benefit or in support of economic development. Under FMC Chapter 3.50, the Council cannot do this since the chapter lists specific percentages of cost rqcovery that have to be met' I
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
On May 14,2024, the City Council reviewed staff s proposed edits to FMC Chapter 3.50. The City Council did not have any questions for staff and voted (5-0-0-0) to introduce and conduct first reading of Ordinance No. 1344 (AnOrdinance of the City of Folsom Amending Sections 3.50.020,
3.50.040 and 3.50.050 and Repealing Section 3.50.060 of the Folsom Municipal Code).
POLICY / RULE
Under Section 2.12 of the City Charter, amendments to the Folsom Municipal Code require review and approval by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
Staff has provided proposed modifications to FMC Chapter 3.50 (provided in Attachments 1 and 2) to remove the schedule of fees and service charges table that lists specific regulations, products or services provided by the City and the percentages of costs reasonably borne by the City to be recovered by those fees. Staff recommends that instead of listing each of these specific facilities, products and services, that the chapter be amended to provide general guidance about fees and the appropriate cost recovery percentage. This provides greater discretion to the Council il for example, it chooses to set a lower cost recovery percentage for a service due to community benefit or economic development reasons. In addition, each department already maintains a Council- approved fee schedule that is publicly available, and these schedules capture each department's actual fee-based regulations, products, facilities, and services. Removing the'opercentage of costs reasonably borne to be resolved" section allows Council to review each department's fee schedule as needed to modifr the percentage of cost recovery desired for each fee (up to 100 percent cost recovery).
In general, staff recommends that Council seek 100 percent cost recovery, but Council may adjust fees to a lower rate attheir discretion. Grounds for reducing fee rates are wide-ranging and could include reasons such as economic development, community benefit, public safety, to encourage the public to obtain permits, and to avoid overburdening the general public with large fees. It would also allow departments to charge flat fees or other fee methods rather than deposit-based fees.
While deposit-based fees ensure full cost recovery for every service, they require additional administrative resources for invoicing, tracking, and collection that many departments, such as Community Development currently lack.
Staff is also recommending removing the language regarding the frequency of fee reviews by Council. The code currently prescribes either annual, quarterly or seasonal reviews. Given the costs and time involved in producing fee studies, these targets have not been achieved. Fee schedules for individual departments often get updated after the department finds that the fees no longer reflect the type or level of work that goes into specific tasks. While it is often best practice to adjust fee levels annually based on the Consumer Price Index (CPD or the Construction Cost Index (CCD depending on the type of fee, service or facility provided, it is not necessary to require this as part of the ordinance as there may be times where staff and/or the Council do not wish to make an annual adjustment. Removing the timing mechanism would formally allow Council and the City Manager to decide when fee updates are necessary. 2
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
In researching other jurisdictions with similar code chapters addressing fee and service charge revenue and cost comparison system, none that staff found dictated specific cost recoveries for individual services and only one listed out each individual service provided as Folsom's code currently does. These codes by and large gave Council the discretion to determine specific fee rates to be collected (not exceeding 100% cost recovery) and did not prescribe the frequency with which fees need to be reviewed. As such, staff found that the proposed code modifications would be consistent with the current practices of several other jurisdictions.
X'INANCIAI,IMPACT
Since the changes to Chapter 3.50 of the FMC still stipulate that the City Council shall generally seek 100 percent cost recovery for City services and this ordinance does not change any specific fee amounts, there is no impact to the General Fund. The proposed modifications to Chapter 3.50 of the FMC would let Council establish new fee and service charge types for any additional services the City provides. It would also allow Council to regularly modifr the percentage of cost recovery of each fee and service charge type on a frequency of their choice based on updated economic conditions rather than relying on cost recovery and review targets from 1987.
AL REVIEW
The change to this chapter of the Folsom Municipal Code is not a project under the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is therefore exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3) - Review for Exemption of the CEQA Guidelines.

For distribution to the City Counci[:
As with my correspondence to the Counci[ on April 23 (betow) and with att due respect for the Community Devetopment Director, I continue to urge the Council. to reject the Community Devetopment Department's (CDD's) proposed amendment/repeat of FMC 3.50 provisions pertaining to service fees and cost recovery. The fee structure of the existing ordinance identif ies 125 categories of fees and the percentage of cost recovery that the City is to achieve for each category. The City has neglected to implement and update fees as needed to obtain the FMC 3.50-required cost recovery; however, that is not a deficiency of FMC 3.50, it is a deficiency in the implementation of FMC 3.50. That deficiency is continuing to drain the City's Generat Fund by improperly subsidizing individuals, business, and devetopment interests util.izing CDD services. lt is time for that practice to stop and for the Cityto update its fees and implement FMC 3.50's directives. lnstead, CDD continues to postpone bringing a fee update to the Council and recommends gutting FMC 3.50 to etiminate a[[ fee categories and respective designated cost recovery percentages. CDD's recommendation does not provide an atternative fee structure and kicks that can down the road white continuing to divert GeneraI Fund dottars to devetopment services and away from other important City priorities.
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
On March 12, the Councit heard a presentation from staff and a consuttant that was hired bythe Cityto prepare a fee study. Staff and the consuttant did not discuss FMC 3.50 provisions, and it is atmost as if staff and the consuttant were simpty unaware of the existence of FMC 3.50. Now CDD suggests that FMC 3.50 be gutted to eliminate its fundamentat substance. CDD's rationale does not hotd water. Staff suggests that FMC
3.50 shoutd be gutted because its l,ist of categories inctudes some services that no longer exist and does not inctude some services that now exist. White that is good reason to update the tist of categofies, it is not a reason to etiminate atl of the categories. Staff further suggests that FMC 3.50 shoutd be gutted because the Councit maywish to modify the percentage of cost recovery for certain categories. Yet, the CounciI has the abiLity to refine and modify the categories and percentages in FMC 3.50 through a pubtic process anytime the CounciI chooses to do so. Etiminatingthe categories and percent recovery structure of FMC 3.50 woutd create a witd-west fee structure requiring this and future Counci['s to continuousl,y consider and debate over the cost recovery percentages for some 125 categories of service fees.
Keeping FMC 3.50 intact white making timited refinements to the categories and recovery percentages woutd be a sound approach, whereas, etiminating the FMC 3.50 categories and cost recovery percentages is bizarre, reckless, and fiscalty unsound. Ptease reject this proposal and direct CDD to 1) return with a more discretety amended FMC 3.50 addressing specific category and percentage amendments, 2) return with a fee adjustment proposats so the Councit can adopt updated fees and stop the drain on the General Fund, and 3) imptement the futt/actuaI cost recovery for development services as prescribed in the attached 201 1 -adopted-but-never-i mptemented resotution.
Thankyou for considering my comments.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.
On April 19, the City distributed an email newsletter with a headline "FOLSOM FACES FISCAI CROSSROADS:
Ct1y COUNCIL DIRECTS BUDGET EDUCATION PROGRAM", followed by an article warning that, 'The city is facing a financial shortfallthat could impact public safety, public services, and the quality of life in Folsom. ... Amidst the projected structural deficit, the city faces compounding infrastructure and building maintenance needs that require a dedicated funding source. There is an estimated S20 million annual shortfall in funding for infrastructure improvements, park and facility repairs, equipment maintenance and replacements, trail maintenance and repairs, and staffing needs." Yet, in the midst of this dire financial reality, City staff is recommending the continued and expanded use of the General Fund to subsidize the cost for the City's processing of private applications for permits and other entitlements. For ltem 9 on your 4/23/2024 agenda, I urge the Council to direct staff to revise and return with a full fee schedule for Development Services funding that achieves fee recovery for all services at the percentages specified in the existing FMC section 3,50. For agenda ltem L0, I urge the Council to reject staffs' recommended amendments to FMC 3.50 and leave FMC 3.50's sound fiscal policy directives in place. Staffs' recommendations would increase use of the General Fund to subsidize private development proposals, diverting those funds from important public safety, public services, and quality of life programs that are hallmarks of the City of Folsom.
At its March 12 meeting, the Council heard a presentation from staff and its consultant regarding fee schedules for Community Development services. Although some questions were asked and concerns expressed regarding certain fees, I heard no one suggest that the City should not strive to comply with the existing FMC 3.50 provisions that direct the City Manager to recover costs at the percentages outlined in the FMC 3.50.040 Schedule of Fees and Service Charges and I heard no one suggest that the existing FMC 3.50.040 fee percentages should be eliminated. Further, documentation for and discussion during the March 12 meeting acknowledged that the City's fee structure has not been achieving the required cost recovery and that increasing the fees to be at least more in-line with FMC 3.50 requirements is necessary to minimize impacts on the City's General Fund.
Now, just a few weeks later, staff has modified the proposed fee schedule (Agenda ltem 9) recommending that the Council adopt a fee schedule revision limited to certain engineering and building permits while leaving all other fees unadjusted, including those known to be clearly insuffici6nt for funding the City's costs and complying with FMC 3.50. Moreover, staff now also recommends (Agenda ltem 10)that FMC 3.50 be revised to eliminate the existing requirement to achieve specific cost recovery percentages.
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
ls this what the Council wants; to continue insufficient recovery of costs for development application processing and building permits and to continue to shift that burden onto Folsom's citizenry by robbing the General Fund?
I hope staff has read the Council wrong on this one and that the Council will reject staff's proposals and direct staff to return with a fee schedule that fully recovers development/permit application processing and one that includes provisions to implement the full cost recovery program requested by staff and approved by the Council in 2OII (attached) that after 13 years is still sitting on the sidelines waiting to be implemented' Thank you for considering my input.

Dear Council
Regarding agenda item 5 of tonight's City Council meeting, this message is to urge the City Council to direct staff to implement a full cost recovery program for processing development applications consistent with the process described in the attached March 2,}OI.L, staff report and adopted by the Folsom City Council in 2011 through Resolution 8801 (attached). Through such a process, individual applicants would pay for the actual and full cost for processing their individual applications - neither subsidizing nor being subsidized by other applicants and without being subsidized by the City's General Fund. ln 2O1t,the Community Development Department and City Council wisely determined that through implementation of a full cost recovery system for application processing, the Cily "would protect its Generol Fund monies from subsidizing private development opplications." Staff's 2011analysis of the financial impact of the full cost recovery program found that, "Ihe cost recovery progrqm would ollow the City to more accurately cover the actuol costs for development permits from the appliconts. Although the octuol savings to the General Fund ore connot be quantified, this fee recovery program will result in o positive impact to the General Fund and provide direct costs charges to contribute to the Generol Fund to more occurately fund development processing costs." Staff's basis for its 20i-1 recommendation concisely described the situation that existed then and that still persists today, noting, "the ronge of complexity in development applications can vary widely and some proiects can remain "ective" or "in process" for years becouse proiects are substantially revised and resubmitted (sometimes with years passing in between) in an ottempt by appliconts to obtoin City approval' 2
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
Staff sometimes must effectively begin processing all over with each resubmittal but is unoble to request new project fees because the project is still technically active. lt is these types of proiects that stoff seeks to target to ensure that staff costs are fully recovered." These persisting circumstances beg for a system based on actual costs, not flat fees.
Yet, the system requested by CDD and approved by the Council in 2011 still has not been implemented and CDD's current 3/12/24 staff report to the Council for agenda item 5 of tonight's meeting provides a recommendation predominated by "flat fees" which are inherently inequitable and a drain on the City's resources. The current staff report makes no mention of the 20L1 Resolution and provides no compelling rationale for abandoning the sound approach that the Council directed be implemented in 2011.
Please direct staff to fulfill the directives of Resolution 8801 and implement the full cost recovery system for development application processing that requires individual applicants to fully fund the costs of processing their applications.
Thank you for considering my input

I appreciate the response, but what you describe doesn't strike me as being consistent with the directionofthe20LLresolution. Youstatethatstaffdoesn'thavethediscretiontochargemorethanthefees set bythe counseleven if a project exceeds that cost, however, my read of the 20ll resolution isthat if a full cost recovery project was being implemented as directed by that resolution, staff would not just have the authority but would also have the obligation to charge an applicant for the actual cost, including City Attorney fees, instead of subsidizing the private project's costs.
I know you'll have your hands full with other things this week, but I (and others) would like more clarity on this. Maybe in the next few weeks you could provide an example of how you track staff time/costs for application projects - perhaps Folsom Prison Brews/Barley Barn since it's a good example of the type of project described in the 20L1 staff report requesting the full cost recovery program (l previously submitted a public records request for that project, but I don't recallthat any of the documents I received had any records of staff time or of applicant payments).
Thanks,

Subject: RE: Funding for Development Application Processing Hi Bob,
l'm just back from unexpected leave and wanted to follow up on your email.
Development processing fees are set by the City Council in an amount that cannot exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service. Accordingly, and generally speaking, staff does not have discretion to charge more than the fees set by the Council even if a particular application takes more time to process than others. Overall, planners and engineers in Community Development track their time working on development applications and also to properly account for deposit-based fees. When it appears that the fees set by the City Council no longer reflect the reasonable cost of providing the service, staff would recommend that the fees be re-evaluated and adjusted' Pam

Subject: Fw: Funding for Development Application Processing Ms. Andersen:
City Council Resolution 8801of 20L1 is attached with the associated March 2,20tL staff report, as provided to me byScottJohnson on October 6,2021,. Mr. Joh.nson was respondingto myOct l request (in string below) for information regarding funding for development applications. Neither Mr. Johnson nor Ms. Johns have yet been able to tell me if or how the Community Development Department has implemented the full cost recovery program for staff time as directed by the Council in Reso 8801. lf such a program is not in place, then taxpaying members of this community have been subsidizing what I expect would amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars of staff time and expenses associated with processing private development applications over the past 10 years when, instead, as directed by the City Council in 20!L, those costs should have been directly paid for by applicants' 4
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
I am asking that you investigate, provide an explanation to the community, and address this matter as a top priority and that you direct staff to immediately suspend any further processing of current and future applications until a reimbursement agreement for full cost recover is in place.
Thank you,

Subject: Re: Funding for Development Application Processing Hi, Pam and Scott (Elaine now cc'd). l'm concerned that you haven't yet been able to confirm that the full cost recovery system is in place and being implemented, This is likely a matter of tens of thousands of dollars each year for staff costs that - based on city council 2011 direction - should be covered by applicant reimbursements. Please confirm ASAP that the system is in place.

Thanks, Scott. The key thing I see from the 2011 staff report and resolution is the council's direction for staff to implement a full cost recovery fee system. The staff report describes precisely the type of situation I was asking about and seems to provide a clear remedy - full cost recovery, Was that full cost recovery system implemented and where would I find a description of how it's implemented? -Bob

Subject: Re: Funding for Development Application Processing Thanks, Pam. That's good to know and answers part of my question. But I'm also interested in knowing if staff time/costs are tracked and reimbursed by applicants. ln particular, projects like 603 Sutter Street and 608 1/2 Sutter Street (Catchy-Name-Here Brews) have been submitted with substantialstaff time invested in reviews, preparing staff reports, preparing for hearings, etc., but then the applicants have decided to pull back the projects and make substantial revisions. I'm sure that even a once-through application requires substantial staff time, and layering in multiple rounds obviously then takes that much more time. So I'm interested in knowing if applicants are funding staff costs for their projects or if I and other taxpayers are paying for staff time to review private projects.

Consultant costs are covered entirely by applicant. Contracts are run through the City because we manage the consultant work consistent with approved scopes of work, Just like any city-run project, any cost overages by a consultant for work that is out of scope must be approved by the city in advance of the work and additional costs are the responsibility of the developer. Does that answer your question? Pam

I'm interested in understanding the source of funding for City and any City- retained consultant costs associated with your Department's review of development projects. I know there are established fees for certain project types, but I also know that the actual time/cost can be much higher than those fees would cover. Does the City absorb that cost or do you require reimbursement agreements with applicants for them to cover the actual cost? Thanks,

Mayor and City Council Members
David E. Miller, AICP, Community Development Director
RESOLUTION NO. 8801 - A RESOLUTION MODIFYING RESOLUTION NO. 83OI TO CONVERT NOTED PLANNING FEES TO DEPOSITS AND
DIRECTING STAFF TO IMPLEMENT A PROGRAM FOR FULL COST
PLANNING SERVICE FEES
BACKGROUND /ISSUE
rr'@erviceFeeswerelastupdatedinoctober2008.Thefeesgenerally reflect the average cost to provide development application processing services. However, the range of compleiity in devilopment applications can vary widely and some projects can remain ..act-ive,' or .tn process" for years because projects are substantially revised and resubmitted (sometimes withyears passing in between) in an atternpt by applicants to obtain City approval.
Staff sometimes must elfectively begin processing all over with each resubmittal but is unable to request new project fees because the project is still technically active. It is these tlpes ofprojects that staff seeks to target to ensure that staff costs are fully recovered. As the Council is well aware, in our current fiscal climate the General Fund is unable to cover any unnecessary development seruice related costs.
Another major issue associated with development application fees is the continuing reduction in General Fund revenues. Over the past three years, the City's General Fund expenses have exceeded the General Fund revenue by approximately $13 million. The City's General Fund cannot subsidize development applications. Civen significant increases in productivity and expediting development permits, the expense to process development permits has dropped in *uny "urir. Nevinheleis, the General Fund continues to significantly subsidize development permit activity.
Therefore, staff is proposing to implement a program where staff would track time spent on each planning application and begin charging applicants monthly if and when the application fees i"r" "*i"ed"d. In addition, a fee would be implemented to cover planning stafftime to review building permits. In this manner, the City would protect its General Fund monies from subsidizing private development applications.
P_qLICY / RULE
FffiiffiEii coar section 3.50.020 directs the city Manager to recommend to the council thr rdJ"rt*ettt- of fees and charges to recover the percentage of costs reasonably bome in providing the regulation, products or services enumerated in Chapter 3.50.
I 000001Page 53
05/28/2024 Item No.6.
Folsom Municipal Code Section 3.50.030 provides direction on calculating "costs reasonably b"*." t" ir"l"d" the following elements: direct costs (wages, overtime, benefits, overhead, etc), inJi.""t costs (building maint-nance, computers, printing, etc.), fixed assets, general overhead, department overhead, and any debt service costs'
Folsom Municipal Code Section 3.50.040 requires fee adjustments be approved by the City C**i1 ft "l* rp""lfio the percentage of City service costs to be recovered through fees. The majority of planning Service Fees are directed to be 100% cost recoverable through its fee structuie. Building permit fees are also directed to be 100% cost recovered.
AI\ALYSIS
st"ff ,"***ends that the city council direct staff to implernent a fulI cost recovery program modeled after one that's been used by the City of Roseville Planning and Redevelopment Department since 2003. The following is the proposed program outline:
Base Cost
The base cost for processing a full cost application represents the minimum amount of staff time invested by City staff. This base cost is determined by an analysis of actual costs and is non-refundable. Staff recommends that Folsom's existing fee structure adopted October 1, 2008 be used as this base cost so that no new costly analysis process is required.
Proiect Initiation
Concurrent wittr the start-up of a project, the applicant enters into an agreement for full cost billing. Per this agreement, the applicant would pay the base costs associated with the individual entitlements associated with the project' Full Cost Billine
Fottowng project initiation and payment of the base cost fee, staff will record time spent working ;; th; project against the base cost. If staff time exceeds that covered under the base coit, the applicant shall be billed an hourly rate thereafter on a monthly basis.
The hourly billing rate charged to projects would be a factor of the staff salary to cover costs as en.1n"tut"d in Folsom Municipal C-gde Section 3.50.030, including: direct costs (wages, overtime, benefits, overhead, etc), indirect costs (building maintenance, "o*jp.,i"rr,
printing, etc.), fixed assets, general overhead, department overhead, and any debf service costs. The Finance Department has completed a fulI analysis of overhead charges and has submitted rates for all Community Development staff.
These charges are based on the current staff costs per adopted City labor contracts, plus a factor for direct and indirect costs. Included in the monthly billing would be any costs incurred by other departments such as the City Attomey's Office, Public Works, Utilities, Housing and Redevelopment, Parks and Recreationo etc.

project lpproval (such as a Design Review or Planned Development Permit) to ensure all itr-ptunoirrg Commission and City Council conditions have been complied with. In addition, p".*itr must be reviewed for compliance with the Zoning Code and any other applicable ordinance.

Staff recommends the Planning Serryice Fees convert to this deposiVcost recovery system in accordance with those services specifically identified in Section 3.50.040 to be full cost recovery. Exceptions to full cost recovery identified in this section include appeals (identified costs to be l07o recovered) and tree removal permits/special events permits (by omission from the schedule of Development Services to recover costs reasonably bome).
FINANCIAL IMPACI
The cort reco"eq, progfam would allow the City to more accurately cover the actual costs for development permits from the applicants. Although the actual savings to the General Fund are cannot be quantified, this fee .*rr.ty program will result in a positive impact to the General Fund and piovide direct costs charges to contribute to the General Fund to more accurately fund development processing costs.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Move to adopt Ordinance No. 1345 - An Ordinance of the City of Folsom Amending Sections 3.20.020,3.20.063,and8.32.140(aX2) of the Folsom Municipal Code Pertaining to Billing for Municipal Utility Services (Second Reading and Adoption).
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The purpose of this Ordinance is to amend Section 3.20.040 and 8.32.140 of the Folsom Municipal Code to remove vacancy exceptions and to clari$ start dates for municipal utility services.
Folsom Municipal Code 3.20.020 Exceptions, allows for municipal service charges to be discontinued upon written request for a period of no less than two months when a dwelling, house, or residence will be unoccupied. This vacancy exception is only applicable to Solid Waste services.
Folsom Municipal Code 8.32.140 Charges for collection and compliance administration Item 1 states that each dwelling, house or residence shall pay a fixed minimum solid waste fee, which applies and is payable without consideration of whether there is any garbage, recyclables, or organic waste to remove from the premises. However, ltem 2. references Folsom Municipal Code 3.20.020 Exceptions allowing for vacancy exceptions.

SUBJECT Ordinance No. 1345 - An Ordinance of the City of Folsom Amending Sections 3 .20.020, 3 .20 .063, and 8.32.1 40(a)(2) of the Folsom Municipal Code Pertaining to Billing for Municipal Utility Services (Second Reading and Adoption)
FROM: Finance Department
05/28/2024 Item No.7.
Proposition 278 mandates that utility rates must be fair and equitable amongst rate payers.
Charging certain customers more than their proportional share of the cost of service to reduce the cost for other customers is strictly prohibited. Solid Waste is still required to provide service to a route, street, or house, regardless of vacancy status. The minimum rate set forth in the Council approved rate schedules covers the minimum cost to provide the service, regardless of how much waste is removed from the premises.
Folsom Municipal Code 3.20.040 Collection methods states that the owner of real properly to which one or more municipal services are rendered shall be responsible and liable for the payment of all municipal service charges, and the city may utilize all procedures available under this code or state law to collect payment. Folsom Municipal Code 3.20.063 Municipal service charges-Establishment of rates states there is levied and assessed a monthly service charge against the municipal service customer (user), for municipal services as defined in Section 3.20.010(A). The amount of these municipal service charges shall be set by resolution of the city council and may be adjusted from time to time by resolution so as to reflect the cost of the services provided.
Existing policies and procedures establish the start date of billing the legal owner of new utility accounts as the date of the recorded deed of the property for existing accounts. New construction accounts also bill the legal owner as of the date ameter is installed atthe property, the date the parcel receives a Certificate of Occupancy or final permit, whichever occurs first.
Staff recommend codiffing our policy to provide clarity to customers.
POLICY / RULE
Amendments and revisions to the Folsom Municipal Code must be reviewed and approved by the City Council.
Proposition 218 mandates that utility rates must be fair and equitable amongst rate payers.
Charging certain customers more than their proportional share of the cost of service to reduce the cost for other customers is strictly prohibited.
Folsom Municipal Code 8.32.140 Charges for collection and compliance administration Item 1 states that each dwelling, house or residence shall pay a fixed minimum solid waste fee, which applies and is payable without consideration of whether there is any garbage, recyclables, or organic waste to remove from the premises.
3.20.063 Municipal service charges-Establishment of rates. There is levied and assessed a monthly service charge against the municipal service customer (user), for municipal services as defined in Section 3.20.010(A). The amount of these municipal service charges shall be set by resolution of the city council and may be adjusted from time to time by resolution so as to reflect the cost of the services provided.
2 ANALYSIS
05/28/2024 Item No.7.
An amendment of this ordinance would clariff that all municipal service charges are applicable and payable, whether or not a property is vacant. It would also codiff existing policies and practices for start dates of billing new municipal utility accounts.
This is in accordance with Folsom Municipal Code 8.32.140 Charges for collection and compliance administration, Item 1, which identifies a minimum solid waste fee, which is applicable regardless of whether there is any garbage, recyclables, or organic waste to remove from the premises. Additionally, it is in compliance with 3.20.063 Municipal service charges- Establishment of rates. There is levied and assessed a monthly service charge against the municipal service customer (user), for municipal services as defined in Section 3.20.010(A).
The amount of these municipal service charges shall be set by resolution of the city council and may be adjusted from time to time by resolution so as to reflect the cost of the services provided.
F'INANCIAL IMPACT
This item has no impact on the City's General Fund. It has an estimated increase of Solid Waste revenues of $8,000 annually.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (CEQA Guidelines $15061(c)(3)) or are otherwise not considered a project as defined by Public Resources Code 921065 and CEQA Guidelines $15060(cX3) and $15378. This Council action meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA. No environmental review is required.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Public Works Department is responsible for the operation, safety, and maintenance of roadways throughout Folsom. In June 202I, a Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) was developed, which is a data-driven report that systematically identifies and analyzes roadway safety issues and recommends improvements. The LRSP utilized accident data between 2015 and2019 to determine locations and causes of traffic accidents, allowing engineers to implement specific countermeasures to address the causes of accidents, leading to a safer roadway network for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
The LRSP identified six specific sections of roadway to upgrade with a suite of new and improved traffic control devices. A map of these locations is included as Attachment 2.
Utilizing the data and recommendations from the LRSP, the city successfully received Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funds to implement those improvements.
In April 2024, City engineers developed and published the project design plans, specifications, and estimate. The project components consist of installing delineators, reflectors, I

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Public Works Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt ResolutionNo. 11203 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Construction Change Order with Central Valley Engineering & Asphalt, Inc. for the On-Call Concrete and Asphalt Maintenance Project (Contract No. 174-21 2l-073) and Appropriation of General Fund Contingency Budget and Measure A Funds
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
In October 202l,the City Council approved Resolution No. 10736, authorizing a contract for the On-Call Concrete and Asphalt Maintenance Project. The project has been ongoing on an as-needed basis for the past three years, with FY 2023-24 being the final year of the 3-year contract. This Change Order will allow the completion of two additional scopes of work that are required:
Emergency Replacement of a Bridge Pedestrian Railing on the Humbug Willow Creek Trail: On April 30,2024, staff was notified of a pedestrian bridge railing that had failed and fallen into the creek beneath, leaving the bridge edge with an approximately 15- foot drop-off into the creek below. Staff Engineers inspected the site and found the a

F'ROM: Public Works Department

metal railing had corroded at the point of penetration into the bridge concrete. The railing is 48 feet long and appears to be largely intact. The planned repair will consist of coring new holes into the bridge deck, extending the metal posts on the bottom of the existing railing, painting the railing, and re-attaching it to the bridge. In the interim, barricades and caution tape have been installed to keep the site safe. The location of this bridge is on the trail connection between Thorndike Way and Keller Circle.
Additional Concrete Repair Locations: As part of the Council District 2 Sidewalk Inspection Project, 40 locations were identified that require complete replacement of the curb, gutter, and sidewalk due to the offset height being too large to repair by temporary saw cutting methods. The repair of these locations will complete the repairs identified in the Council District 2 Sidewalk Inspection report.
POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 236.f 50 of the Folsom Municipal Code, Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, the city manager shall make, or authorize others to make, emergency procurement of supplies, equipment, services, or construction items when there exists atbreatto public health, welfare, or safety; provided, that such emergency procurement shall be made with sufficient competition as is practicable under the circumstances. The requesting department shall complete a waiver of bid format and submit it to the purchasing agent for filing with the city clerk. (Ord.723 $ 3 (part), 1991)
ANALYSIS
Central Valley Engineering & Asphalt was chosen to perform these repairs due to their existing contract for On-Call Concrete work.
Because there are no contract unit prices for the bridge railing work, staff is proposing to proceed with this repair on a time and materials basis. Staff will inspect and monitor the contractor's progress to ensure that the daily extra work reports accurately represent the effort performed. It is estimated that the repair to the bridge railing may cost up to $25,000. Any unused funds for this repair will be returned to the General Fund.
The replacement of the curb, gutter, and sidewalks in Council District 2 will cost $83,392.97 per the agreed-upon contract amounts.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City Council's approval of Resolution No. 10736 authorized the execution of a Construction Contract for the On-Call Concrete and Asphalt Maintenance Project for a yearly amount of $524,06 9 , for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $l ,572,207 over three years.
Contingency was not required for this contract.

05/28/2024 Item No.10.
The up to $25,000 estimated cost of the emergency repairing and reinstalling of the bridge railing will be financed from the General Fund (Fund 010) contingency budget. Sufficient funds for this emergency procurement are available in the General Fund (Fund 010) contingency budget.
The $82,392.97 costof replacing the concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk in Council District 2 will be financed from the Measure A Fund (Fund 276). Sufficient funds for this additional work are available in the Measure A Fund (Fund 276).
If approved, this Construction Change Order would increase the authorized amount by $108,393 to a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $632,462 for FY 2023-24.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Public Works Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11208 - A Resolution Authorizing Staff to Submit a Grant Application to the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District for the 2024 Sacramento Emergency Clean Air Transportation Program Funding Round for the Purchase of Five Light Duty Battery Electric Vehicles.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) is the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) for the greater Sacramento region, which is a six-county region including Sacramento, Yolo, Sutter, Yuba, Placer, and El Dorado counties. The Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District (SMAQMD) is the regional air quality management district for the County of Sacramento. The Sacramento Emergency Clean Air Transportation (SECAT) Program is a partnership between SACOG and SMAQMD, with the goal of promoting zero emission on-road vehicles based in the SACOG region.
As the agency responsible for monitoring air pollution and for developing and administering programs to reduce air pollution levels below the health-based standards established by the state and federal governments for all of Sacramento and Yolo Counties, as well as portions of Solano, Sutter, El Dorado and Placer Counties, SMAQMD is charged with administering various clean air incentive programs, including the SECAT program.

SUBJECT: ResolutionNo. 11208 - A Resolution Authorizing Staff to Submit a Grant Application to the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District for the 2024 Sacramento Emergency Clean Air Transportation Program Funding Round for the Purchase of Five Light Duty Battery Electric Vehicles
F'ROM: Public Works Department
05/28/2024 Item No.12.
As part of the SECAT program, $4,200,000 will be made available to fleets within Sacramento County. The available funding per vehicle is based on the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) as follows:
Vehicle Weieht Class
o Light Duty (under 8,501 pounds GVWR)
o Medium Duty (between 8,501 & 14,000 pounds GVWR)
o Heavy Duty (14,001 pounds & higher GVWR)
X'unding per Vehicle
$20,000
$35,000
$100,000
There is a minimum City purchase commitment of at least five vehicles under 14,001 pounds or at least one vehicle over 14,000 pounds required to be eligible for this funding, with no specified upper limit.
This funding can be combined with other available grants and other state rebates. Funding may be reduced if the sum of all grants exceeds the vehicle cost. Some of the other available grant programs require a cost share from the applicant, and SMAQMD staff will work with each appiicant to ensure compliance with this requirement. Funding is available to add vehicles to a fleet or convert existing vehicles to zero emission operation.
Additionally, the SECAT Program will only fund zero emission vehicles that can be quickly delivered or converted to zero emission. Vehicles must be ordered within 45 days of contract execution and vehicle delivery must occur within 180 days of contract execution. Projects taking longer than these timelines are subject to termination. Applicants will need to demonstrati their projects are meeting the timeliness requirement by submitting proposed VINs or other documentation showing the proposed vehicles can be delivered quickly.
No funding is available to help replace diesel vehicles to comply with the Air Resource Board (ARB) Truck and Bus Regulation. SECAT funded vehicles cannot be used to comply with ARB Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) requirements. The ARB passed ACF with the expectation that fleets would pay 100zo of the compliance cost without any assistance.
The Public Works department is recommending the purchase of five battery electric vehicles for the pgrpose of increasing the size of the motor pool fleet located at City Hall, with the ultimate goal of increasing the motor pool fleet accessibility to all City departments and decreasing the size of the outdated and under-utilized department assigned vehicle fleet.
POLICY / RULE
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 10405 Amending Financial Policies of the City of Folsom regarding grant administration on April 14, 2020. Section D - Intergovernmental Revenues, Paragraph A - Grant Applications states, "Grant application shall be the responsibility of the department seeking the grant. Grant applications which require an expenditure of funds by the City of less than or equal to the City Manager contract authority amount may be approved by the City Manager prior to submittal to the grantor. All other grant 2
05/28/2024 Item No.12.
applications, including any requiring an ongoing commitment of resources or staff, shall be reviewed and approved by the City Council prior to submittal. In circumstances where it is not possible for the City Council to approve the grant application prior to submittal, the City Manager may approve the application subject to the City Council ratification as soon as practicable to do so.
Requests to the City Council or the City Manager for approval of a grant application shall identiff anticipated long-term maintenance andlor renovation eosts, required City matching funds, and additional personnel that may be needed if the grant is awarded for a capital project.
With respect to grants for staffing, the source of funds for long-term staffing after the expiration of the grant shall also be identified in the request for approval of the grant application.
All grant applications on behalf of the City shall be reviewed by the Finance Director before submittal to the City Council or the grantor."
ANALYSIS
The SECAT grant application opened on May 9, 2024. Staff have reviewed the program guidelines and determined the best use of SECAT funding is light duty vehicles. ACF requires that fifty percent of medium and heavy-duty vehicles purchased be zero emission. Using SECAT funding for these vehicles would eliminate them from counting toward city compliance. The city needs as many ACF credits as possible to offset purchases of traditional combustion engine vehicles. Non-compliance with ACF could result in fines and ineligibility for grant funding. In addition, most medium and heavy-duty vehicles operated by the city are custom vehicles that could not be deployed in the timeframe required by SECAT. Transitioning to zero emission light duty vehicles before it is mandated provides the opportunity to use grant funding without impacting compliance. SACOG staff intend to review and approve applications as soon as possible upon receipt. Applicants approved for more than $1,000,000 in SECAT funding will require approval by the SACOG Board of Directors which will delay the process, but most may get awards within 30 days.
F'INANCIAL IMPACT
There is no direct financial impact associated with this action at this point. Should the City be awarded grant funding for the purchase of the recommended five vehicles, the City would be required to provide the full purchase cost of the five vehicles up frorit, with $100,000 to be reimbursed by SECAT once the proper reports are filed. The up front purchase cost of the five battery electric vehicles is expected not to exceed $230,000, with a final cost to the City expected not to exceed $130,000 after receiving the $100,000 grant reimbursement. Future savings of maintenance and fuel costs could amount to as much as $1,500 per year.
The required funding for the purchase cost of the five battery electric vehicles was not included in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Brfiget" nor is it included in the Proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget. Should the City be awarded grant fundinga staff will return to Council to accept the grant and request an appropriation not to exceed $230,000 for the purchase ofthe vehicles from aJ

the General Fund (Fund 010). The grant funding received would be credited to the General Fund (Fund 010).

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council approve Resolution No. 1 1209 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Non-Professional Services Agreement with Belfor Restoration Services (Belfor) for Stucco Repairs at the Folsom Public Library and Appropriation of Contingency Funds.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Over the past 6-8 months staff have been tracking issues at the Folsom Public Library regarding water leakage into the interior spaces of the building. Staff has determined that most of the issues are due to exterior stucco panels that are cracking andlor delaminating from the main structure as well as issues with windows in the affected area. Staff recommends that Belfor conduct a thorough investigation of the building envelope where leaks have occurred, develop a scope of work, and perform repairs to the existing stucco, flashing, and windows as needed. Part of this work will be pre and post project environmental testing to confirm that any mold issues that may have been present, have been rectified.
POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36.150 of the Folsom Municipal Code, Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, the city manager shall make, or authorize others to make, emergency procurement of supplies, equipment, services, or construction items when there exists a threat to public health, welfare, or safety; provided, that such emergency procurement shall be made with sufficient competition as is practicable under the circumstances.

requesting department shall complete a waiver of bid format and submit it to the purchasing agent for filing with the city clerk. (Ord.723 $ 3 (part), 1991)
ANALYSIS
Staff recommends Belfor for this project because they are the vendor of choice for the City's insurance provider, and because they have the resources to test, investigate, and remediate the stucco issue at the Folsom Public Library. After the repairs are complete, Belfor will conduct testing to ensure that all leaks have been addressed, and that environmental testing has confirmed that no mold issues are present. Belfor did remediation work at the Folsom Garage, Rotary Clubhouse, and Fire Station 36.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The cost of the Building Assessment and the replacement of damaged stucco is proposed to be financed from the General Fund's (Fund 010) contingency budget. Sufficient funds for this emergency procurement are available in the General Fund's (Fund 010) contingency budget. The request is for Not to Exceed (NTE) Funding of $ 150,000, along wtth a l5Yo contingency for unknown conditions. The contingency percentage exceeds the lUYo construction contingency authorized in the Folsom Municipal Code but is highly recofilmended due to conditions that are not known at this time. The total NTE project request with contingency would be in the amount of $172,500.
Project Costs:

MEETING DATE: 512812024
AGENDA SECTION: Public Hearing
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11186 - A Resolution to Adopt an Amended User Fee Schedule for Community Development Engineering and
Building Services (Continued from 05/1412024)
FROM: Community Development Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt ResolutionNo. 11186 to adopt an amended user fee schedule for Community Development Engineering and Building services.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Since the user and processing fees for the Community Development Department's services, including Building, Engineering and Planning, have not been comprehensively evaluated since at least 2006, the Department hired Clearsource Financial Consulting to analyze existing user fees, hourly rates, and staff time needed to perform fee-based tasks for Building, Engineering, and Planning services as well as for Special Event Permits. The study found that existing fees did not adequately cover the amount of staff time and resources associated with those processes and services. The study proposed a new fee schedule, with some modifications to the structure itself, to better capture the costs associated with fee-based services as well as an updated General Plan and Zoning Code Update fee to cover the increase associated with keeping these documents up to date with the frequent changes to State laws governing housing and land use. Based on Council and public feedback, as described below, staff is only recommending at this time changes to the user fees for Building and Engineering services.
In order to provide an opportunity for the Council and the public to provide input on the draft fee study, Community Development staff conducted a workshop on March 12,2024 with the City Council. Staff provided the results of the fee study and discussed the proposed user fee updates for the services provided by the department. At the workshop, the City Council took in comments from the public regarding the proposed updated fee schedule. Public comments primarily focused 1
05/28/2024 Item No.14.
on concerns about new fees and current processes associated with special events from groups that put on events in the city and business owners that benefit from events being held. Members of the public also requested lower fees for appeals to ensure that the public is not priced out of appealing a project white still recognizingthat staff s level of effort is not currently captured in the existing fee. Finally, the North State Building Industry Association requested a tiered roll-out of fees of 50 percent ofthe proposed increase initially and then implement the remainder of the fee increase six months later to reduce the immediate impact of fee increases on applicants.
The City Council discussed the proposed fee schedule update and provided comments to staff for consideration. While Council did not suggest modifications to any specific fees for Building or Engineering services, questions were raised about the necessity of the proposed technology fee and why it needed to be called out as a separate line item rather than included in the overall permit cost. That clarification has been made in the Analysis section of this report to address the comment received.
With regards to proposed fees for Planning services (which include appeal fees), Councilmembers stated that better explanations are needed for the various Planning processes and how often they are utilized to determine if all listed fees are still necessary. Councilmembers also stated that the proposed appeal fees were too high even though they captured staffls level of effort. With regards to special events, Councilmembers also noted that proposed Special Event Permit fees were too high and that more research was needed to determine what types of events and organizations, such as non-profits, should be charged less for events with community or economic development benefit. Additionally, the special event process, which is currently handled by Planning staff was also called into question with some suggestions that the Parks & Recreation or other City departments handle this process. Ultimately, Council concluded that updating fees for Planning pro".rses and Special Event Permits should be handled separately from the Building and Engineering fee changes.
Ultimately, staff determined that it would be more effective to discuss Planning fees in tandem with the upcoming ZoningCode update. This update may come with modifications to, or even the elimination of, existing Planning processes that could in tum have effects on staff time and Planning fees. Staff believes that discussing proposed changes to processes in the Zoning Code update Jhould go hand in hand with discussions of the fees associated with those processes to improve efficiency. Furthermore, additional work is needed to make changes to the Special Event Permit process and how fees should be charged for events. As such, staff is only proposing updates to fees for Building and Engineering services at this time. Updated Special Event Permit fees are anticipated to go in front of Council in summer/falI2024 with a target effective date of January 1, 2025. To coincide with the Zoning Code update, planning process fees are anticipated to go in front of Council in first quarter 2025, with a target effective date of July 1,2025.
POLICY / RULE
ftre ogecti*s of the fee study, the methodology used to complete the study, and the formulation of outcomes and recommended fee updates were significantly influenced by Article XIII C of the California Constitution, Propositions 218 (1996) and 26 (2010), and Section 66014 of the California Government Code.
2
05/28/2024 Item No.14.
Article XIII C states that, "the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner inwhich those costs are allocated to a payor bear afair or reasonable relationship to the payer's burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. " Additionally, Article XIII C identifies the following development processing fees as items that are not defined as taxes:
o A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege [Art. XIII, C, 1(e)(1)1.
. A charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product [Art. XIII, C, l(e)(2)].
A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local govemment for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudicationthereof lArt. XIII, C, 1(e)(3)1.

Section 66014(a) of the California Government Code includes the following, "Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a local agency charges fees for zoning variances; zoning changes; use permits; building inspections; building permits; ...the processing of maps under the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act...; or planning services...; thosefees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged, unless a question regarding the amount of thefee charged in excess of the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services or materials is submitted to, and approved by, a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting on the issue".
The outcomes and recommendations of the fee study were intended to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws including providing confirmation that the proposed fees ("charges") recommended as a result of the fee study are not taxes as defined in Article XIII C of the California Constitution and that the proposed fees are no more than necessary to the cover the reasonable costs of the City's activities and services addressed inthe fees. Additionally, the fee study shows that the manner in which the costs are allocated to a payor bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payor's burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and services provided by the City.
ANALYSIS
The Building Division's modified fee schedule includes restructuring and new tiers and fee types so that the proposed fees more accurately reflect the level of effort that is expected as projects grow in scale and detail. The restructuring and modifications included:
aJ
05/28/2024 Item No.14.
The Engineering Division also made several specific modifications to the fee schedule to reflect costs associated with the permit reviews and plan checks that they perform. Major proposed modifications include the following:
Encroachment permits were restructured with the intent of encouraging applicants to obtain permits for their intended use. Subcategories of encroachment permits were added based on length of time, needs, and various types of encroachment (e.g., utilities encroachment vs. temporary storage container encroachment).
Annual permits for the purposes of general maintenance are to be billed on a time and materials basis. Since general maintenance.can vary greatly in scope and effort, an initial deposit will be determined by the City Engineer for the purposes of estimating the necessary level of staff effort to support review and inspections of the proposed work. a
a
o
a
Introducing flat rate fees for common residential permit types to be simpler for the public to understand and pay as well as easier for staff to administer. Staff found this to be consistent with other jurisdictions in the area.
Restructuring the fees related to subdivision development to align with the amount of staff time utilized for each permit type. Production permits for homes in a subdivision are reviewed by all divisions in Community Development, though the current fee covers less than one hour of staff time.
Revising the current fee table for valuation-based projects to account for the same percentage cost recovery atallvaluations. The current fee table utilizes a sliding scale for cost recovery, which does not reflect the estimated hours utilized. The proposed fee table is instead based on the same percentage cost recovery for any project. The current table uses a different percentage cost recovery based on project valuation (i.e.75% recovery for a $25,000 project versus 90o/o recovery for a $10 million project).
Adding the Business License Fee, Certified Access Specialist (CASp) Training Fund Fee and State Disability Access Fee to the fee schedule. These fees (the latter two of which are required by State law) have previously been collected along with the building permit fee but were not called out in the fee schedule.
Fees that are primarily for work performed by the contract City Surveyor were modified to reflect the actual billable rate of the Surveyor plus the City's overhead cost for contract administration.

a
Landscape review for production homes was changed from being based on the valuation of the project to a fixed fee, as the existing valuation method did not reflect the detailed tasks and level of effort that goes into reviewing the plans' Currently, aflat rate of $38 is used for all tree work/removal permits, regardless of the number of trees being removed. The tree removal permit fee structure was completely revamped to ensure that when tree work or minor removal (up to two trees or any "in- decline" tree) on occupied properties is proposed, the fees are kept relatively low, as this does not take a significant amount of staff time to review and code compliance is encouraged. However, for the removal of three or more trees, and any tree removal for new construction, the fees have gone up significantly to reflect the level of staff time it takes to process and review these tasks. For tree work/removal that requires a permit that staff discovers has been done without a permit will be charged two times the permit amount.
Based on public feedback (see comment letter from Morton & Pitalo in Attachment 3), staff revisited the proposed Final Map Amendment/Certificate of Correction fee. Because these two tasks are very different and require a different amount of time to process, staff has now proposed to split the fees. The new proposal is to charge the base Final Map fee for Final Map Amendments and a smaller Certificate of Correction/Certificate of Compliance deposit-based fee for these tasks. Staff believes that these modifications better reflect the time it takes to do these tasks and allow flexibility to charge more if needed for more challenging Certificates of Correction or Compliance' Technology Fee
Based on feedback from the City Council, CDD has changed the way it is proposing to cover the cost of the technology required for online electronic plan and permit submittal, processing and review. The software systems that the department currently uses are moving to a cloud-based, fee- for-service model with an ongoing annual cost similar to how Microsoft's Office 365 system works. While the department currently uses soflware packages that it purchased and was installed on City seryers, CDD plans to eventually move from its current systems that involve large one- time costs, upgrade costs, and maintenance cost to a new annual subscription service. Rather than a separate technology fee, staff is proposing to treat the technology costs as part ofthe department's overhead cost for building permits. As a result, staff hourly rates for building permits have been adjusted to reflect the updated overhead costs, and all building permit fees are therefore slightly higher than originally presented in the draft fee study on March 12. By treating the technology costs as part of the overhead cost for the department, this will allow the annual costs to be covered fully and will not result in costs to the General Fund. However, in the future, if the department was to add additional software or technology services, a new fee study would be required to update the department's new overhead rate.

05/28/2024 Item No.14.
General PlanlZoning Code Fee
While CDD already charges a three percent (3%) General Plan fee on most building permits, the department is also proposing an updated General Plan and Zoning Code fee. California Government Code Section66014 states that fees collected by an agency "...may include the costs reasonably necessary to prepare and revise the plans and policies that a local agency is required to adopt before it can make any necessary findings and determinations." Every county and city in California is required by State law to have aGeneral Plan, and the plan is required to be up to date.
The General Plan discusses the City's goals, policies, and implementation actions regarding all future development. The ZoningOrdinance establishes the development regulations to implement the General Plan and must be consistent with the Plan.
Cities and counties throughout California often attempt to recover portions of the costs of updating and maintaining these plans through fees collected on various development projects.
As the list below indicates, a similar fee is currently collected by several cities in the region. The list is not intended to be comprehensive. Cities in the region that collect a General Plan/Zoning Code Update Fee or Similar Fee include:
o Elk Grove
o Lincoln
o Rancho Cordova
o Roseville
o Sacramento
CDD is proposing a two percent increase in the fee. The new General Plan and Zoning Code Update fee would be five percent (5%) and would be applied to building permits for new construction, additions, tenant improvements, and residential remodels. Projects that require these types of permits rely on the General Plan and Zoning Code to establish the land use, density and development standards necessary for the projects to happen.
Based on the Crty's anticipated costs of updating/maintaining the General Plan and its various elements and the Crty's Zoning Code, only partial cost recovery (approximately 55 percent) is targeted from this fee to keep it in line with fees collected by other agencies within the region.
While the entire community benefits from having a General Plan and ZoningCode, residential and commercial projects, in particular, benefit from these documents because these documents allow for development and contain the development locations and standards necessary for development to occur. The new proposed fee would help fund major periodic General Plan, Housing Element andZoning Code updates as well as in-house maintenance of these documents. The revised fee increases the amount from 3 percent to 5 percent as the cost of preparing these documents has grown. However, because the current General Plan fee is collected for both the building permit fee and the plan check fee and the proposed General Plan and Zoning Code Update fee would only be collected for the building permit fee, this would result in approximately the same amount of funds that are currently being collected.

05/28/2024 Item No.14.
Conclusions
ClearSource performed a reasonableness test on the proposed fees using historical permit volume to forecast anticipated revenue from the fees. This test confirmed that the forecasted revenue from the fees did not exceed the actual staff costs associated with this work and should therefore be in line with State law. The study recommends monitoring permit and application volume and applicant feedback to determine if any of the fee modifications are resulting in any unanticipated "huttg".
in project frequency and to provide greater detail for future revenue forecasting. The study also recommends that fees should continue to be updated on an annual basis using the Consumer Price Index (CPD. This is typical for other jurisdictions in the region and also similar to how other City fees are administered in Folsom. The study also recommends that a comprehensive fee study should be conducted periodically to ensure fee levels remain at or below legal limits and are consistent with evolving practices and local conditions.
Regarding the North State Building Industry Association's request for a tiered roll-out of fees, staff is proposing a phasing of the fee changes. New Engineering and Building fees would go into effect on August t, ZOZ+. Planning fees are not proposed to be updated until the Zoning Code update is complete with new Planning fees proposed to go into effect on July 1,2025 after adoption oi the new code. As such, projects that are subject to Planning fees along with their Engineering andlor Building fees will not see an increase in Planning fees until several months after the Building and Engineering fees have gone into effect. Staff believes that this accomplishes the goals of a tieied roll-out by reducing the immediate impact of fee increases on applicants for larger projects. As such, no other formal tiered roll-out for Building and Engineering is proposed.
FISCAL ACT
The fee study concluded that the proposed new
estimated additional $1,100,000 annually for the
Building and Engineering fees could result in an
General Fund, based on historical permit volume
and development activity. Fee revenue could be higher or lower if actual experience differs from the assumptions used in the fee study.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
STUDY OVERVIEW
The City of Folsom provides many services to ensure safe, orderly and aesthetically pleasing development and construction within the City. The broad categories of these services include, but are not limited to, project entitlement review, improvement plan check, map check, permits (building, grading, encroachment and driveway), and land action review (i.e. dedications, parcel mergers and lot line adjustments). User fees and regulatory fees are the mechanism by which the City may recoup a portion of or all of the costs associated with these services'
The City of Folsom has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study. California cities regularly conduct these studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall portfolio of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services,
lndustry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that same individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency's general revenues as much as possible for use toward services of broader community benefit.
USER AND REGULATORY FEES
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, license fees, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs lncurred by the City for provldlng fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.
California law provides guidance regarding the amounts the City may charge for fee-related services and activities. Specifically, in order to avoid being considered taxes, the fees charged shall not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services, activities, or materials for which fees are charged'
COST RECOVERY POLICY AND PRACTICE
Recovering the costs of providing fee-related services directly influences the City's fiscal health and increases the City's ability to meet the service level expectations of fee payers.
The services for which the City imposes a user or regulatory fee typically derive from an individual person or entity's action, request, or behavior. Therefore, except in cases where there is an overwhelming public benefit generated by the City's involvement in the individual action, a fee for service ensures that the individual bears most, if not all, of the cost incurred by the City to provide that service. When a fee targets "LOO% or full cost recovery," the individual bears the entirety of the cost, When a fee targets less than full cost recovery, anothei City revenue source - in most cases, the General Fund - subsidizes the individualized activitY.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
FINDINGS AND PROPOSED ACTION
During the course of study, information and analysis was generated and is discussed substantively throughout this report and its technical appendices. However, summarized in the following findings statements by broad fee category, are outcomes and proposals of particular interest to City policymakers.
Building Fees
o Current fees recover less than the City's full cost of providing fee-related services. o The Division collects approximately 52,845,000 annually in fee revenues. Fee-related expenditures are anticipated to be approximately 53,468,000. This results in an aggregate cost recovery level of 82% and a General Fund subsidy of approximately 5622,000. o Full cost recovery is targeted for building fees.
Land Development Eneineering Fees and Encroachment Permit Fees o Current fees recover less than the City's full cost of providing fee-related services. Many of the City's current fees are fixed at amounts that reflect less than the City's cost of providing services (examples include, but are not limited to, tree permitting and landscape plan review). o The Division collects approximately 52,400,000 annually in fee revenues. Fee-related expenditures are approximately 52,880,000. This results in an aggregate cost recovery level of 83% and a General Fund subsidy of approximately 5480,000. o Recalibrate fees to encourage cost recovery of City staff and outside service provider costs, o Full cost recovery is targeted from engineering and encroachment permit fees.
Deposit-Based Ensineerins Fees (i.e.. Time & Materials Billinss) o Fees for some of the City's more complex land development review projects are proposed to be administered using a "time and materials" billing approach. The City will collect an initial deposit and bill against that deposit for the costs of outside consultant review and support, and in-house labor efforts. lf the deposit is drawn down before project completion, staff contacts the applicant to request replenishment of funds, lf deposit amounts remain at the completion of the project, the applicant is refunded the unused deposit amount. Comprehensive tracking and billing for deposit-based projects should billing for project time such as:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
o Multiple Rounds of Review
o Report PreParation
o Decision Making, Meeting Preparation
o Project Close-Out and Documentation Actions
Reeional Fee Comparison
o Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City's cost of service and are in-range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions. Regional fee comparison information is included in Appendix A of this report.
Additional Cost Recoverv from Proposed Adiustments to Fees o The enhanced cost recovery anticipated frrom the proposed changes included in the fee schedule update is S1,1oo,ooo.
Fairly allocating costs to the services provided and recovering some, or all, of these costs from service recipients creates value and predictability for City customers and reimburses the City for services provided to a single party, as compared to the public at large. Collecting fees for services:
C lncreases the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all residents and businesses, such as public safety and public works services' C Helps meet fee-payer service level expectations by collecting fees to fund the existing level of services provided.

PROJECT ORIENTATION
SCOPE OF STUDY
The City of Folsom has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study, which represents an external review of prevailing practices and development of an updated Schedule of User Fees and Charges. ClearSource Financial Consulting has prepared this analysis during Fiscal Year 2023/24 and will be available to answer questions as the City proceeds in implementing findings as it chooses Key tasks expected by the City from this study included the following:
C Review eligible fee-related services citywide to establish the reasonable relationship between current fees for service and the underlying costs of service,
3 Calculate the full cost of service, including estimated citywide overhead costs. 3 Recommend fees to be charged for each service.
t Recommend cost recovery strategies and best practices in setting fees, while considering the complexities and demands of responsible programs or departments.
C ldentify underlying billable rates for cost recovery opportunities and as the basis for user fees. 3 Maintain a thoroughly documented analysis to ensure compliance with Proposition 25, and other statutes, as applicable.
DIRECT SERVICES UNDER REVIEW
Fee Categories
City fees under review in this project focused on direct services eligible for user fee methodology, as listed in the City's published fee schedules. Additionally, the project was tasked with identifying any relevant additions for services performed without a fee or for under-quantified or ineffectively structured fees.
Current services shown in the City's various prevailing fee schedules and addressed in this study are summarized as follows:
3 Engineering - Services include encroachment permitting, development plan review and inspection' 3 Building - Building plan review, permitting, and inspection for construction and sub-trades. 5CLEARSOURCE REPORT TO THE CITY OF FOLSOM Page 141

PROJECT OR!ENTATION
REASON FOR STUDY
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources, These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by a city for providing fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.
California cities regularly conduct fee studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall body of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services. Widespread industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency's general revenues for services of broader community benefit.
PREVAILING GUIDANCE
The objectives of this study, the methodology used to complete the study, and the formulation of outcomes and reconimendations for future consideration were significantly influenced by Article 13C of the California Constitution and Section 56014 of the California Government Code.
Article 13C states that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payer's burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. Additionally, Article 13C identifies the following as items that are not defined as taxes:
3 A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege. 3 A charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product,
C A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof. 3 A charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property.
3 A fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law.
C A charge imposed as a condition of property development. 5CLEARSOURCE REPORT TO THE CITY OF FOLSOM Page 142
05/28/2024 Item No.14.
PROJECT ORIENTATION
C Assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article Xlll D.
Section 6601a(a) of the California Government Code includes the following, "Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a local agency charges fees for zoning variances; zoning changes; use permits; building inspections; building permits; ...the processing of maps under the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act...; or planning services...; those fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged, unless a question regarding the amount of the fee charged in excess of the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services or materials is submitted to, and approved by, a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting on the issue.
The outcomes and recommendations of the study are intended to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws including providing confirmation that the proposed fees ("charges") recommended as a result of this study are not taxes as defined in Article 13C of the California Constitution and that the proposed fees are no more than necessary to the coverthe reasonable costs of the City's activities and services addressed in the fees. Additionally, this report is intended to show that the manner in which the costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer's burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and services provided by the City.
METHODOLOGY AND DATA SOURCES
This study calculated the estimated reasonable cost of providing various fee-related services across the City organization. Generally, the estimated reasonable cost of providing the fee-related services and activities examined in this study can be calculated as the product of the composite fully-burdened hourly labor rate of the division responsible for providing services and the estimated labor time required to process a typical request for service'
The composite fully-burdened hourly rates calculated in this study are based on the estimated annual hours spent providing fee related services, and estimated labor, services and supplies, and citywide overhead expenditures, sourced as follows:
3 Labor expenditures for in-house personnelwere based on budgeted salary and benefits expenditures. 3 Contract service personnel and other services and supplies related costs were based on Fiscal Year 2023/24 adopted budgets and anticipated costs.
C Citywide overhead cost allocations were based on the City's current overhead cost allocation plan. 3 Estimated labor time spent providing fee related services were developed based on interviews with City staff and are in-line with typical direct service ratios experienced by the consultant via studies of similar municipalities throughout California. Commonly used industry data also aided in the development of time estimates and proposed fee structures.
Once cost of service levels are identified, the City may use this information to inform targeted cost recovery front fees. Fees set at the cost-of:seNice target full cost recovery. Fees set at any amount less than the cost-of-service target less than full cost recovery. 7CLEARSOURCE REPORT TO THE CITY OF FOLSOM Page 143

IMPLEMENTATION
CONSIDERATIONS FOR IM PLEMENTATION
lf the City decides to adopt or otherwise utilize outcomes generated through this study, it should 3 Update Systems for Fee Outcomes - Ensure that City staff begin using updated fees and associated outcomes once the updated schedule of fees becomes effective, Values should be included in all official fee schedules used throughout the City (e.g., departmental pamphlets, counter schedules, and online information). Additionally, ensure collections processes are updated, which may include coding in billing systems and training for personnel who handle fees directly with the public' 3 Actively Monitor the Use of Fees - ln order to recover accurate and eligible amounts expected, the City should be diligent about tracking time to projects for time and materials billings and ensuring fees are applied in the correct amount and using the correct and intended basis for fixed fee billings' 3 Monitor Feedback and Permit Statistics - Monitor permit and application volume and applicant feedback to determine if fee modifications are resulting in any unanticipated changes in project frequency and to increase the level of detail available for revenue forecasting. 3 Annually Review and Adjust Fee Values - ln order to generally maintain pace with regional cost inflation and/or the City's salary cost inflation, the City should adjust its fees on an annual basis. A commonly used, reasonable inflation index is the annual change in the all-urban Consumer Price lndex (CPl) representative of the region.
g periodicaly perform Comprehensive Analysis - A comprehensive fee study should be conducted periodically (e.g., every three to five years) to ensure fee levels remain at or below legal limits and are consistent with evolving service practices and local conditions' 9CLEARSOURCE REPORT TO THE CITY OF FOTSOM Page 145

APPENDIX A
REGIONAL FEE COMPARISON
ln order to provide the City Council with additional information as it considers potential adjustments to fees, current and proposed fees were compared to amounts collected by other agencies within the region.
City policymakers often consider fees established by other regional agencies for similar services when evaluating proposed fees.
The City of Folsom, consistent with other cities throughout the State, has an existing fee schedule that contemplates hundreds of potential unique requests for service. This can result in thousands of fee scenarios when comparing among multiple agencies. Consequently, an exhaustive comparison of the hundreds, and potentially thousands of scenarios is unrealistic. lnstead, comparison information for several fee categories commonly seen from agency to agency are provided in order to provide City Council with a reasonable sense of changes expected, For Folsom, outcomes will show that new fees may range from low, mid, to upper end of regional fee spectrum depending on the service provided. This is common among municipalities due to differing levels of service and review included among various fee categories.
