SECTION 5. CEQA
Amendments to Special Events and Parades Ordinance are an administrative government activity that is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) in that the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that the there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.

Amendments to the Special Events and Parades Ordinance will clearly not have a significant effect on the environment and, thus, CEQA does not apply. The Council therefore directs that a Notice of Exemption be filed with the Alameda County Clerk in accordance with the CEQA guidelines.

SECTION 6. SEVERABILITY
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this Ordinance is for any reason held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such a decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council of the City of Fremont hereby declares that it would have passed this Ordinance and each section or subsection, sentence, clause and phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid.

SECTION 7. EFFECTIVE DATE
This Ordinance shall take effect and will be enforced thirty (30) days after its adoption.

SECTION 8. PUBLICATION AND POSTING
The City Clerk has prepared and published at least five days before the date of adoption, this ordinance once in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published in Alameda County and circulated in the City of Fremont. A certified copy of the full text of the ordinance was posted in the office of the City Clerk since at least five days before this date of adoption. Within fifteen (15) days after adoption of this ordinance, the City Clerk shall cause the ordinance to be published again with the names of those City Council members voting for and against the

PURCHASE OF FLEET VEHICLES - Approval of Purchase Order with Tymco, Inc. for the Purchase of One Street Sweeper in an Amount Not to Exceed $345,280.95; with Peterson Trucks, Inc. for the Purchase of One Dump Truck in an Amount Not to Exceed $140,993.69 and; with The Ford Store San Leandro for the Purchase of Seven Police Vehicles in an Amount Not to Exceed $354,163.89.

Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to authorize the purchase of one dump truck, one street sweeper, and seven police vehicles to replace current aging equipment.

BACKGROUND: The dump truck, street sweeper, and seven police vehicles that staff recommend for replacement have reached the end of their useful life and are incurring increased mechanical failures, downtime, and maintenance costs that require they be replaced before costs become prohibitive. The dump truck, street sweeper, and seven police vehicles are scheduled for replacement and funds for that purpose have been appropriated for Fiscal Year 2021/22. The dump truck is used for street maintenance, the street sweeper is used for solid waste removal operations, and the police vehicles will be replacing four patrol vehicles and three Community Service Officer (CSO) vehicles.

In 2021, staff met with departments and determined the vehicle make and models that would best meet their operational needs for the dump truck, the street sweeper, and the seven police vehicles. In December 2021, staff formally solicited bid #22-015 for the purchase of one dump truck and determined that the Peterson Trucks, Inc. provides the lowest and responsible bid for the dump truck.

Staff compared the available vendor pricing and contract pricing from other public agencies for the purchase of the sweeper and the seven police vehicles and determined the pricing from Tymco Inc. from the Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC) Contract #SW04-20 and the pricing from The Ford Store San Leandro from the Alameda County RFQ Master Contract #901979 provide fair and competitive pricing for the street sweeper and the seven police vehicles, respectively.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The City has the opportunity to realize cost savings for the purchase of one dump truck from Peterson Trucks, Inc. that provided the lowest and responsible bid; for the purchase of one street sweeper from Tymco, Inc. using the HGAC cooperative purchasing program that is a political subdivision of the state of Texas which offers publicly solicited contracts to government entities nationwide that uses public competitive solicitation and award process similar to the City’s that is required by the City’s

The FY 2021/22 adopted budget for the vehicle replacement reserve in the Integrated Waste Management Fund (Fund 115) has sufficient funding available for the purchase of one street sweeper.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Purchase of this equipment is not subject to the review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment per the CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b) (3).

ATTACHMENTS: None.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Authorize the City Manager or Designee to execute a purchase order with Peterson Trucks, Inc. for the purchase of one dump truck in an amount not to exceed $140,993.69.

WARM SPRINGS BART WEST ACCESS BRIDGE AND PLAZA PROJECT - Authorization to Amend a Professional Services Agreement with MNS Engineers, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $300,000 for Construction Management Services related to the Warm Springs BART West Access Bridge and Plaza Project (PWC 8804), for a Total Contract Amount Not to Exceed $2,851,020 Contact Persons:

Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to facilitate the funding of unanticipated construction management services required for the completion of construction of the Warm Springs BART West Access Bridge and Plaza Project.

BACKGROUND: The Construction Management Services agreement for the Warm Springs BART West Access Bridge and Plaza Project was awarded to MNS Engineers (formerly S&C Engineers) on March 28, 2018. Project construction began in August 2018. The overall project cost is $41 million. The West Access Bridge and the Warm Springs Plaza opened to the public on February 3, 2022 and the project is currently anticipated to be complete by March 2022.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The schedule for construction of the West Access Bridge and Plaza Project was extended due to a variety of unexpected issues and challenges. This required additional construction management support services. The recommended amendment will provide funding for MNS Engineers to complete recent and future tasks to “close-out” the project, including support for final inspections, testing, and documentation.

FISCAL IMPACT: Additional funding is needed to execute this amendment. Staff recommends reallocating $300,000 from the Regional Funding Projects Match (PWC 9041) appropriation. With reallocation of these funds to the project, there will be sufficient funds available to execute this amendment.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: On January 12, 2016, the City Council approved and adopted a mitigated negative declaration and mitigation monitoring and reporting plan for this project. No changes to the project or its circumstances have occurred, and no new information has become available, since adoption of the project mitigated negative declaration that would require preparation of additional environmental documentation.

ATTACHMENTS: None.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Reallocate funds of $300,000 from PWC 9041-514 and appropriate to PWC 8804-514.

CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF FOOD BANKS AGREEMENT - Approve a Three Year Agreement with California Association of Food Banks for participation in the CalFresh Outreach program and Making Finding of CEQA Exemption Contact Persons:

Name: Alina Kwak Suzanne Shenfil
Title: Management Analyst II Director
Div/Dept: Human Services Department Human Services Department Phone: 284-4014 510-574-2051
E-Mail: [email protected] [email protected]

Executive Summary: The Fremont Family Resource Center Corporation has contracted with the California Association of Food Banks every year since 2008 to provide CalFresh Outreach activities assisting low-income families to learn about and enroll in CalFresh (formerly known as Food Stamps, or the federal name SNAP – Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program).

BACKGROUND: CalFresh is the name for California's Food Stamp Program. CalFresh is a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that provides assistance for households to purchase nutritious food. The program uses an easy credit card format called Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) to purchase food at retail stores and farmers markets. The California Association of Food Banks (CAFB) is a statewide umbrella organization supporting California food banks and food assistance programs. CAFB's CalFresh Outreach Program is funded from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Services.

Funding is administered as a cost reimbursement. For every $1,000 of non-federal money spent and billed by a partner organization on allowable food stamp activities, $333 is reimbursed to the partnering organization.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: It is estimated that statewide only 70% of eligible California households are enrolled. California has one of the lowest SNAP participation rates in the nation. 40% of Alameda County eligible families do not yet receive the benefit, and outreach and assistance is needed to inform and assist families to access this benefit. Every $5 in new food stamp benefits generates $9.20 in total community spending1.

In the years that the FRC has been participating in this program, hundreds of eligible families have become enrolled. While California’s participation rate continues to lag far behind the national average, the FRC is assisting to inform eligible Tri-City families about CalFresh, thereby helping low-income families secure the support they need for a healthy diet.

Updated: 2/23/2022 4:30 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 1
CAPITAL PROJECT CLOSEOUTS - Approve the Closeout of Completed Capital Projects and Partial Defunding of Selected Projects; and Approval of Fund Transfers and Appropriations

Executive Summary: The purpose of this staff report is to facilitate administrative adjustments to the City’s Capital Budget that consist of: returning unused appropriations to their respective funds; transferring unused appropriations to existing projects; and exchanging the source of project funding. The recommended actions include “closing out” funding accounts for 21 completed projects.

BACKGROUND: The City’s current 5-Year CIP and Capital Budget was approved in June 2021 and includes investments in the amount of approximately $199 million for the repair and improvement of the City’s parks, buildings and transportation system. The City currently manages over 200 capital projects in various stages of development that have received an appropriation of funds by the City Council. The majority of these projects are successfully managed by staff through project completion consistent with initial budget appropriation amounts. Staff also pursues funds from internal and outside sources whenever possible to either wholly fund or offset City project expenses.

Typically, during the mid-year timeframe, staff identifies various administrative adjustments to the Capital Budget for City Council approval to allow for: closing out completed projects; adapting to changing circumstances; and enabling the most effective use of funds.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The following describes various funding actions recommended in this staff report.

Project Closeouts

Upon completion of right-of-way acquisition, construction and other related activities, some capital projects have remaining budget appropriations. Historically, projects with over- expended balances are offset against projects with under-expended balances within the fund, and all are closed simultaneously. Staff periodically requests City Council approval to close projects, return unused funds to available fund balance for appropriation in the next Capital Budget cycle, return to granting agencies, or appropriate to active capital projects as reflected on the Project Closeout List (Exhibit A). The Project Closeout List includes 21 completed projects.

Project Defund and Reallocation of Funds

Staff Report (ID # 4548) Meeting of March 1, 2022
Updated: 2/23/2022 4:30 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 2
Staff has identified some active or ongoing projects with remaining appropriations that are in excess of current project needs or where it is beneficial to fund the project with another source of funding as shown on the Defund List (Exhibit B). The funds then are either made available for appropriation in the next Capital Budget cycle, returned to granting agencies, or appropriated to active capital projects.

Project Appropriations

As funds become available through project closeout and defunding, or from new funding allocations, eligible projects are identified to receive funds. Recommended appropriations include active projects receiving budget augmentation for project completion or continuation of existing programs and reallocation of funding sources. A list of project appropriation actions is included in Exhibit C.

FISCAL IMPACT: The recommended actions will return to fund balance approximately $4.61 million from project appropriations where funds are no longer needed and either redistribute them to previously approved projects in need of funding augmentation ($4.06 million) or make them available for future programming ($0.55 million).

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The recommended actions are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because they are an administrative fiscal activity and not projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378.

ATTACHMENTS:
• Exhibit A - Project Closeout List
• Exhibit B - Defund/Reallocate List
• Exhibit C - Project Appropriations List

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Approve the closeout of the capital projects identified on Exhibit A - Project Closeout List and return the remaining project appropriations to available fund balance in their respective funds.

2. Approve the defunding of the capital projects identified on Exhibit B - Project Defund List and return the remaining project appropriations to available fund balance in their respective funds.

STAFF REPORT (ID # 4554) DOC ID: 4554

CITY OF FREMONT REDISTRICTING PROCESS PUBLIC HEARING AND INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTIONS 2.05.130 AND

2.10.110 OF FREMONT MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING THE REDRAWING OF

ELECTION DISTRICT BOUNDARIES AND MAKING CONFORMING CHANGES DUE TO HAVING A SEVEN MEMBER CITY COUNCIL – Fourth Public Hearing on City of Fremont Redistricting Process, Start time - 7:15pm

Executive Summary: The Public Hearing scheduled for March 1, 2022, represents the fourth in a series of four public hearings required under the California Elections Code Section 21600 et seq. as part of the redistricting process undertaken following each decennial federal Census.

The purpose of this public hearing is to (1) conduct a public hearing to receive additional public input on communities of interest and district boundaries, and (2) identify a final Council District Map.

Staff also recommends the introduction of an ordinance amending Fremont Municipal Code Chapter 2.05 to remove the existing district boundaries from the Municipal Code and provide for the new boundaries to be established by a map adopted by resolution. The proposed ordinance also amends Fremont Municipal Code Chapter 2.10 to make a conforming change related to the expansion of the city council from 5 members to 7 members. The redistricting process must be completed by April 17, 2022.

BACKGROUND: In 2017, the City expanded the City Council from five members to seven members and began the transition from at-large to district-based elections. The district- based maps were adopted on June 13, 2017 by the City Council with an ordinance approving six new Council districts and a phase-in schedule from 2018-2020. The change from at-large to by-district elections requires the City to conduct a redistricting process every ten years.

Redistricting Public Hearing Recap
Public hearings for the City's 2021 Redistricting process were held in compliance with Elections Code Sections 21620-21629 on September 21, 2021, December 7, 2021, and February 15, 2022. This is the fourth and final public hearing required by law. The City also held an informational presentation of the redistricting process for the City Council, a community workshop providing training on public mapping tools, and informational presentations to community organizations and City commissions.

Staff Report (ID # 4554) Meeting of March 1, 2022
Updated: 2/25/2022 9:18 AM by Susan Gauthier Page 2
At each public hearing, the City’s demographer consultant, National Demographics Corporation (NDC), provided a presentation of redistricting requirements under the federal Voting Rights Act and the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA).The City Council also received and filed reports on the public input received by the City of Fremont regarding communities of interest and district boundaries. All public input, staff reports, translated documents, and video recordings of Fremont Redistricting Public Hearings, can be found by date at https://redistrictfremont.org/schedule/.

At the second and third public hearings (December 7, 2021 and February 15, 2022) draft maps drawn by the public and NDC were presented to the City Council for their review. The City received 11 maps from the public, six of the maps drawn by the public met the basic criteria of redistricting under federal and state law, while five did not. All submitted maps can be found on the City’s redistricting website, www.redistrictfremont.org. Based on the discussion of the City Council, NDC has revised proposed maps to be presented at the fourth public hearing. The revised maps are attached to this report.

Public Outreach
An important aspect of the redistricting process is extensive public outreach. Information regarding public hearings has been posted in TriCity Voice (English), WorldJournal SF (Chinese), La Opinon de Bahia (Spanish), Vietnam Daily News (Vietnamese), and India Post (English, Punjabi, Hindi). Additionally, public hearing documents have been translated into eight languages and are posted on the City’s redistricting website, www.redistrictfremont.org. Redistricting information has also been included in the City’s weekly online newsletter, The Fremont Connection, Channel 27, and weekly informational posts have been shared on the City’s social media platforms.

City staff also presented the redistricting information in other public meetings, in addition to the four required public hearings.

The City of Fremont received a request to for live interpretation services in Cantonese and Mandarin for participants during the third public hearing on February 15, 2022. The City consulted with an interpretation vendor to provide these services with two Cantonese interpreters and two Mandarin interpreters.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: Under the redistricting process, districts must be redrawn using 2020 Census data and in compliance with the Fair Maps Act, which was adopted by the California legislature as AB 849 and took effect January 1, 2020.

The Fair Maps Act requires that “council districts shall be substantially equal in population as required by the United States Constitution.” (Elections Code Section 21601(a)). A total deviation of 10% or below is the recommended target for proposed local government district maps to maintain legal compliance with federal and state law. After processing the City’s current district map with 2020 Census data, NDC found that it reflects a total population deviation of 10.62%. This value is above the 10% threshold and thus requires redrawing of the district map to comply with balanced populations across districts.

Additionally, under the Act, Council shall draw and adopt boundaries using the foll owing criteria in the listed order of priority (Elections Code Section 21601(c)):

1. Comply with the federal requirements of equal population and the Voting Rights Act

2. Geographically contiguous

3. Undivided neighborhoods and “communities of interest”

5.A
Packet Pg. 39
Staff Report (ID # 4554) Meeting of March 1, 2022
Updated: 2/25/2022 9:18 AM by Susan Gauthier Page 3

4. Easily identifiable boundaries

5. Compact (do not bypass one group of people to get to a more distant group of people)

6. Shall not favor or discriminate against a political party Once the prioritized criteria are met, other traditional districting principles can be considered.

Proposed Maps Reviewed under the Redistricting Process
The City received 11 maps from the public throughout the redistricting process. Six of the maps drawn by the public met the basic criteria of redistricting under federal and state law, while five did not. Each map that met the basic criteria was presented to the Council at the second or third public hearings with demographic analysis reports.

NDC presented three proposed draft maps to the City Council for review based on results of the City’s redistricting public survey, public comment, and feedback from Council. Each of these maps were also presented at the second or third public hearings with demographic analysis reports.

At the third public hearing, staff recommended that the City Council identify one to three priority maps to be reviewed at the fourth public hearing. The City Council provided extensive feedback and focused on three maps for NDC to attempt to revise for further review at the fourth public hearing. All maps submitted during this process, can be found on the City’s redistricting website, www.redistrictfremont.org.

City Council Feedback - Revised Maps for Public Hearing #4 The City Council directed NDC to perform analysis to revise Public Map 91604, Green Map Drawn by NDC, and the Minimal Change Map Drawn by NDC, for further review at the fourth public hearing. The City Council’s feedback provided that though these three maps met the redistricting criteria and balanced population deviation requirements, NDC should revise to attempt to further unify Fremont’s communities of interest. The City Council provided direction on the importance of maintaining unification of the City’s neighborhoods and business districts. Direction was given to revise the map options to attempt to unify the Centerville neighborhood and its business corridor in one district, either District 2 or District 3, to unify the Glenmoore neighborhood in one district either District 2 or 3, and to ensure the continued unification of the Irvington neighborhood.

NDC has attempted to make the Council requested revisions and has revised Public Map 91604 and the Green Map Drawn by NDC for presentation at the fourth public hearing. The Minimal Change Map Drawn by NDC could not be revised to meet the requested revisions by the City Council while maintaining the compactness of the communities of interest and population balance. The NDC Redrawn 91604 Map and Revised Green Map Drawn by NDC are attached to this report and will be reviewed for the final Council District Map selection.

Introduction of Ordinance Amendment
The Draft Ordinance proposes to make the following changes to the Fremont Municipal Code:

1. Fremont Municipal Code Section 2.05.130 currently establishes the City Council voting districts by describing the boundaries of each district. The proposed amendment removes the existing district boundaries from the Fremont Municipal

5.A
Packet Pg. 40
Staff Report (ID # 4554) Meeting of March 1, 2022
Updated: 2/25/2022 9:18 AM by Susan Gauthier Page 4
Code and provides for the new boundaries to be established by a map adopted by resolution of the City Council.

2. In 2017, when the City established elections by district, the City expanded the City Council from five to seven members. At that time, a number of conforming changes were made throughout the Fremont Municipal Code to reflect that change. However, Section 2.10.110 regarding the removal of the City Manager was not amended and that section still reflects the number of votes required for removal by a five-member City Council. The proposed amendment revises the vote requirement to reflect the change from five to seven members. Specifically, the amendment changes the number of votes required to remove the City Manager from three to four and when the vote occurs within 60 days after the City Manager’s appointment or a City Council election, the amendment changes the number of votes required from four to five to remove the City Manager.

FISCAL IMPACT: None.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The selection of a Council District Map and the introduction of the ordinance are exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 15061(b)(3) in that it is not a project which has the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

ATTACHMENTS:

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Conduct a public hearing to receive additional public input on communities of interest and district boundaries.

2. Identify and select a final Council District Map.

3. Introduce ordinance amending the Fremont Municipal Code, sections 2.05.130 and 2.10.110.

4. Direct the City Clerk to post and publish a summary of the ordinance in accordance with Government Code Section 36933(c)(1).

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE ANNUAL INFLATIONARY INCREASE - Public Hearing (Published Notice) to Consider Adoption of a Resolution to Apply an Annual Inflationary Adjustment to the City’s Development Impact Fees, Including the Parkland Fee, Park Facilities Fee, Traffic Impact Fee, Capital Facilities Fee, and Fire Facilities Fee, Increasing the Fees in an Amount of 6.62%, Based on the Bay Area Construction Cost Index, Effective July 1, 2022.

Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to implement a fee adjustment to Development Impact Fees, based on annual construction cost escalation, to ensure that proposed mitigation to offset the community impacts associated with new development can be delivered.

BACKGROUND: The City of Fremont imposes fees on new development to mitigate its impacts and to fund public facility improvements that meet the needs of a growing community. These fees are commonly known as development impact fees. The City has five fee programs: two related to Parks (parkland acquisition, park facilities), one for Transportation (also known as the Traffic Impact Fee), and two for Civic Facilities (fire facilities/equipment, other city buildings/infrastructure/equipment). The City uses its impact fees to fund public facilities and improvements needed to serve new development. Impact fees are typically paid by developers at the time of building permit issuance. Impact fees cannot, however, be used to correct existing deficiencies or for the ongoing operation and maintenance costs of these facilities. Fee revenues are allocated to specific projects as part of the City’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Adjustment of Development Impact Fees

Based on prior Council direction, the City annually adjusts Development Impact Fees to keep pace with the inflationary cost of infrastructure construction. The index most widely used in the construction industry is the Construction Cost Index (CCI) prepared by the Engineering News Record for the San Francisco Bay Area. This index takes into account the cost of construction materials and labor and is distinctly different from the Consumer Price Index. The currently published CCI reflects a 6.62% increase in construction costs over the past year. Consistent with past practice, staff recommends increasing all development fees by 6.62% effective July 1, 2022. It is noted that the annual construction cost escalation increase approved by the City Council, effective for the current fiscal year was 4.48%.

Staff Report (ID # 4544) Meeting of March 1, 2022
Updated: 2/23/2022 4:21 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 2
State law requires a minimum 60-day period after council approves a fee increase before the increase can go into effect. Staff is recommending an annual adjustment in an amount of 6.62% to the development impact fees to be effective on July 1, 2022, which is more than the 60 days required by law. Proposed development impact fees are provided in Exhibit A.

Fee Reduction to Support Affordable Housing

On May 4, 2021, the City Council approved a comprehensive update to the City’s Development Impact Fee program which established a 50% reduced rate for development fees related to affordable housing. The recommended inflationary fee increase would apply “across the board” to all City development fees, including affordable housing. From a relative perspective, development fees related to affordable housing would continue to be discounted at a 50% rate.

PUBLIC NOTICE: A public hearing notice was published in the Tri-City Voice on February 15, 2022. Additionally, email notification to the public was sent to approximately 1,736 persons listed on the City’s eNews Notify Me subscribers of the Builder’s Interest list on February 10, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed adjustment of 6.62% to the development impact fees would ensure that new development is adequately funding its share of the costs of new public facilities as the costs to construct these projects increase over time. The annual adjustment to the impact fees provides for fees that better reflect construction cost increases to ensure the City does not subsidize new development’s share of these facilities and that adequate funding is available when the City is ready to construct the projects.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The recommended action is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) in that it is not a project which has the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

ATTACHMENTS:
• Draft Resolution - Development Impact Fees
• Exhibit A - Proposed Development Impact Fees - effective July 1, 2022

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Hold a public hearing to hear any public comments regarding the proposed impact fee adjustment.

2. Adopt a resolution approving a 6.62% increase to development impact fees for the Parkland Fee, Park Facilities Fee, Traffic Impact Fee, Capital Facilities Fee, and Fire Facilities Fee programs to reflect construction cost changes in 2021, effective July 1, 2022 and amending the Master Fee Schedule to include the increased fees.
