Staff Report No. 26-CMO-027
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING NEW CATEGORY AND FEE FOR COMMERCIAL

ENCROACHMENT AREAS
(Environmental Programs Manager Douglas Krauss)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council

1. Adopt a resolution establishing a new category and fee for certain commercial encroachment areas in commercial zones (Attachment 4); and

2. Amend the Master Fee schedule to reflect the new fee.

Executive Summary:

At its April 28, 2026, meeting, Council conceptually approved a Resolution establishing a new category and fee for outdoor dining encroachments on public property and directed staff to bring back a Resolution to that effect that excludes applying such fees to commercial businesses operating in residential zones.

Background:

The City has long supported and encouraged outdoor dining on private and public property to activate place-making strategies and supplement indoor operations. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and related health orders, businesses were limited to conducting business outdoors. Recognizing this hardship, City Council approved a program to allow expanded outdoor dining and other commercial activity. The City also suspended zoning and parking requirements to allow outdoor dining on private property and established a temporary encroachment permit program to allow encroachments into sidewalks and public streets. The City further allowed existing permanent encroachments, such as those on Pier Plaza, to temporarily expand their encroachment areas.

The City has issued over 60 temporary outdoor dining permits in a variety of commercial locations. Though mostly on and around Pier Plaza, encroachments are spread throughout the City’s main commercial areas (Attachment 1). Initially, City Council allowed these uses without consideration of any encroachment area rents or reimbursement of lost parking meter revenue. At its January 25, 2022, meeting, Council discussed implementing new fees for the temporary outdoor dining encroachments and approved a fee of $1.50 per square foot per month.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
At its February 8, 2022, meeting, Council approved reinstatement of the prior permanent encroachment fees. At its November 3, 2022, meeting, Council extended the temporary program with direction to staff to return with an item to consider a permanent version of the temporary outdoor dining program for Council’s consideration.

At that same meeting, Council directed staff to return with an update on encroachment fees. On June 13, 2023, Council approved Resolution 23-7379 (Attachment 2), which established encroachment fees for the 2023-2024 fiscal year, as well as the two following fiscal years. Fees for fiscal year 2025-2026 went into effect July 1, 2025, and remain in place. There are no additional rate increases scheduled for the encroachment areas beyond these approved by Council in 2023:

Meeting Date Description
January 13, 2026 Requested staff to bring back an item to discuss possible encroachment fee revisions
March 10, 2026 Approved a new category and fee for certain commercial encroachments
April 28, 2026
Directed staff to return with a Resolution establishing new fee and category with an exclusion for encroachments in
residential zones
Discussion:

In 2023, City Council considered various factors to help inform these fees. These included location (with Pier Plaza being most desirable), amount of staff resources needed to administer (enforcement, inspection, maintenance, etc.) and complexity of the encroachment areas (e.g., constructed on-street dining deck versus sidewalk tables and chairs that are movable).

Overall, the number of encroachment permittees has remained essentially the same during this time though a few on-street dining areas (dining decks) have been removed.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
At the January 13, 2026, meeting, Council suggested creating a new category for commercial dining establishments outside of Pier Plaza that do not offer table service nor alcohol use in the encroachment areas. For comparison, the City of Manhattan Beach charges $4 per square foot for all commercial encroachments. The City of Redondo Beach charges $2 for encroachments that serve alcohol and $1 for those that do not.

At the March 10, 2026, City Council meeting, after considering various rate and category scenarios, Council approved a new category for businesses both on and off Pier Plaza that do not have table service nor serve alcohol on their encroachments. For this new category, Council approved a fee reduction from $2.50 per square foot to $1.00 per square foot, applied retroactively to January 1, 2026. This new category currently applies to six businesses covering a total of 2400 square feet of public right-of-way (Attachment 3). This total includes Gitanas which was recently included in the program under this category.

At the April 28, 2026, City Council meeting, the City Council directed staff to return with a revised Resolution that excludes charging any fee for encroachments on public property by commercial businesses within residential zones. Staff recommends adopting the Resolution. Staff will invoice these businesses accordingly.

Fiscal Impact:

The City collects approximately $200,000 per quarter in commercial encroachment fees.

The seven businesses in the new business category total 2130 square feet and would generate $63,900 in encroachment fees at $2.50 per square foot.

At $1.00 per square foot, these seven businesses are expected to generate $25,560 annually, which is a $38,340 reduction in encroachment fees.

CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH
RESOLUTION NO. 26-XXXX

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH

AMENDING THE FEE SCHEDULE FOR COMMERCIAL ENCROACHMENTS

ON PUBLIC PROPERTY
WHEREAS, the City of Hermosa Beach (“City”) owns and manages public rights-of-way and municipal property (“Property”) and possesses authority to regulate, permit, and monetize use of such Property pursuant to its police power under the California Constitution (Section 7 to Article XI) and Government Code section 37350; and
WHEREAS, the City is located within the California coastal zone and is subject to the California Coastal Act of 1976 (Public Resources Code section 30000 et seq.)(“Coastal Act”), which requires that development and use of coastal resources be balanced with protection of public access and coastal resources; and
WHEREAS, certain encroachments onto City Property may be subject to coastal development permit requirements and related conditions to mitigate impacts on public access and coastal resources; and
WHEREAS, the City has long supported outdoor dining and retail encroachments to promote economic vitality and activation of commercial areas; and
WHEREAS, the City may impose fees for private use of City Property so long as such fees serve a legitimate public purpose and are rationally related to governmental interests including cost recovery, equitable allocation of public resources, and economic regulation; and
WHEREAS, any fee imposed in connection with a permit or condition of approval must satisfy constitutional requirements under the Takings Clause of the United States Constitution (including the “essential nexus” and “rough proportionality” standards established in applicable case law); and

WHEREAS, fees for encroachments on City Property are imposed as a condition of voluntary use of public land and are intended to compensate the public for private occupation and to address impacts to public infrastructure, access, and administrative resources; and
WHEREAS, the City Council (“Council”) adopted Resolution No. 23-7379 dated June 13, 2023, establishing a tiered fee structure based on factors including location value, intensity of use, administrative costs, and impacts to public infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, the Council directed staff to evaluate adjustments to encroachment fees including creation of a reduced-fee category for lowerintensity uses on January 13, 2026; and WHEREAS, the Council has considered the unique characteristics of certain off–Pier Plaza businesses that do not provide table service or alcohol service, and therefore impose lesser impacts on public infrastructure and administrative resources; and
WHEREAS, the Council considered the zoning of such encroachments at the April 28, 2026 meeting, and determined that encroachments located in residential zones should be exempt from this fee; and
WHEREAS, the Council now desires to create a new encroachment category and fee; and make the fee retroactive to January 1, 2026.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals. The recitals above are true and correct, and are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. Amendment. The Council hereby amends the City’s Master Fee Schedule to establish the following encroachment fee category:

Encroachment Area Category Proposed Fee per square foot, per month
Off Pier Plaza businesses conducting retail
food sales without table service and
without alcohol service located in
commercial zones
$1.00
Notwithstanding the foregoing, encroachments located within residential zoning districts shall be exempt from the fees established by this Resolution.

SECTION 3. Coastal Act and Constitutional Findings. The Council hereby finds and declares the following:
a. Essential Nexus. There is an essential nexus between the encroachment fee and legitimate governmental interests including compensation for private use of public property, protection of public access within the coastal zone, and mitigation of impacts to public infrastructure and pedestrian circulation.
b. Rough Proportionality. The amount of the fee is roughly proportional to the intensity and character of the encroachment use taking into account location, operational characteristics, and level of impact on public resources and City services.
c. Coastal Act Consistency. The fee structure is consistent with the Coastal Act because it supports orderly management of public rights-ofway, protects public access, and ensures that private use of coastal public land does not occur without appropriate compensation or regulation. d. Voluntary Use of City Property. The fee applies only to voluntary encroachments onto City Property, and is therefore a lawful charge for use of public land rather than an unconstitutional exaction. e. No Unconstitutional Taking. The fee does not constitute an unconstitutional taking of private property because it satisfies the nexus and proportionality requirements, and is imposed in connection with discretionary approval of encroachments.
f. Residential Zone Exemption. Encroachments located
within residential zones (1) are of lower intensity; (2) generate fewer impacts to public access, infrastructure, and City services; and (3) require less administrative

oversight. The Council therefore finds that imposition of a fee in such locations would not be roughly proportional to the impacts of the encroachment. The exemption is necessary to ensure the fee structure remains constitutionally compliant and reasonably related to the impacts of use of public property.

SECTION 4. Legislative Findings. The Council further finds that (a) the fee is a lawful exercise of the City’s police power and proprietary authority; (b) the fee is not a tax, but a charge for use of public property; (c) the classification created by this Resolution is rational and satisfies equal protection requirements; and (d) the exemption for residential zones is rationally based on legitimate governmental interests including proportionality of impacts, neighborhood compatibility, and support for lower-intensity community-serving uses.

SECTION 5. California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). The Council finds that this action is not a project under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15378(b)(4) and (5). The action results in the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities, which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. Further, the action is an organization or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

SECTION 6. Severability. If any section or provision of this Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, or contravened by reason of any preemptive legislation, the remaining sections and/or provisions of this Resolution shall remain valid. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Resolution, and each section or provision thereof, regardless of the fact that any one or more section(s) or provision(s) may be declared invalid or unconstitutional or contravened via legislation.

SECTION 7. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Resolution; cause the same to be entered among the original resolutions of the City; and make a minute of the passage and adoption thereof in the records of the proceedings of the City Council in the minutes of the meeting at which time same is passed and adopted.

SECTION 8. Effective Date. This Resolution is effective immediately upon adoption.

PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED on this 12th day of May 2026. ______________________________________________________________________________ Mayor Mike Detoy

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

RESOLUTION ADOPTING FEES FROM A FEE STUDY UPDATE
(Continued from the April 28, 2026, City Council Meeting) (Administrative Services Director Brandon Walker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Conduct a public hearing to consider adoption of remaining fee updates included in the recent Fee Study update; and

2. Adopt Resolution 26-XXX setting fees based on the recent Fee Study update (Attachment 1).

Executive Summary:

The City recently updated its fee study, originally set in 2016 with partial cost recovery, to address rising service costs, reduce growing General Fund subsidies, and improve cost alignment (potentially generating ~$1.0M annually). At the April 28, 2026, meeting, City Council held a public hearing, approved all staff recommendations except 19 fees to be phased in over two years, and directed staff to return to review those remaining fees in more detail.

Past Board, Commission, and City Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
2011
City Council held User Fee Study workshops on February 17, 2011 and March 29, 2011; conducted a public hearing on April 26, 2011; reviewed fee summaries on May 10, 2011; directed preparation of a resolution on May 26, 2011; and continued the item to June 14, 2011, for adoption.

September 19, 2016 User Fee Study Session-City Council reviewed the 2016 Fee Study Update and provided direction to staff regarding
implementation of fees
September 27, 2016 City Council approved a fee resolution, establishing a standardized cost-recovery framework with phased fee
adjustments, maintaining some fees below full cost to balance affordability and economic activity; effective December 1, 2016.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 9
Meeting Date Description
April 28, 2026 City Council held a public hearing on proposed new fees and approved all except 19, which will be increased over two years per staff recommendations; staff were directed to return to City Council to review those 19 fees.

Analysis:

Planning/Building and Public Works fees remain below full cost recovery, about 63% and 78%, respectively resulting in ongoing General Fund subsidies exceeding $1M and $200K. Fees were calculated based on current processes and associated staff time to more accurately reflect the true cost of service delivery.

Cost increases are largely driven by higher personnel and benefit costs, increased overhead, greater coordination across departments, expanded regulatory requirements, and the need for consultant support, factors that have significantly increased the true cost of providing services since the last comprehensive update. The updated fee study modernizes and recalibrates these fees to better align with actual costs, reduce subsidies, and improve long-term fiscal sustainability. Staff is also currently reviewing and refining internal processes and may return with future fee adjustments as efficiencies are identified.

The City Council’s April 28 action approving most fee updates represents meaningful progress toward full cost recovery; however, 19 fees were isolated by City Council for further discussion, and decisions on these will determine whether subsidies are reduced or continue to place pressure on the General Fund. All proposed fee updates are included in Attachment 3.

Staff Analysis
Development Services Fees
Overall, City Council comments generally support modest or phased fee increases tied to actual staff costs while emphasizing that future fee adjustments should be coordinated with ongoing zoning, permitting, and process streamlining efforts. Several comments recommend creating tiered fee structures based on project complexity, reducing or refunding fees where staff time is lower than anticipated, and providing reduced fees for streamlined, repeat, administrative, or lower-impact applications.

Many of the requested adjustments are directly tied to broader Community Development review efforts currently underway, including zoning updates and process improvements expected to come before the Planning Commission and City Council over the next year.

These anticipated workflow and procedural changes, including expanded administrative approvals, streamlined review processes, and reduced commission involvement for certain applications, may reduce staff processing time and allow future fees to be recalibrated to better reflect the revised level of effort and actual cost recovery.

On May 26, 2026, staff will present changes to the administrative procedures of the Zoning Code to the City Council where the current review pathways will be identified and described. As the Zoning Code Update proceeds, staff will recommend adjustments to fees as approval pathways are modified. In practice, fees will be recommended for reduction in those instances where authority is delegated from the Planning Commission to staff, as this type of streamlining will eliminate the need to prepare cases for its consideration.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 6 of 9
The following fees from the table above are related to procedures recommended for streamlining by staff and the Planning Commission:

S-003 CUP/PDP Condo
S-018 Temporary Use Permit
S-018A M-1 Zone Limited Events Permit
S-024 Planning Commission Interpretation
S-030 Planning Sign Permit
S-030A Planning A Frame Sign Permit
S-033 Administrative Use Permit
Zoning Code provisions related to Commercial uses and development will be addressed in the coming fiscal year. The following fees are related to procedures that may be revised through this update:

S-001 CUP – Comm/Other
S-003B CUP Annual Monitoring
2-034 Admin Permit – Abandon CUP
Staff recommend a postponement of fee increases on these activities.

Public Works Fees
The proposed Public Works fee increases are intended to better recover the actual staff time, permit processing, inspections, coordination, and administrative review required under the City’s current code and permitting processes.

Alternatively, City Council could direct staff to return with potential code, zoning, or process amendments that may reduce review requirements or alter permit procedures, which could warrant revisiting the proposed Public Works fees following additional legal and operational analysis.

Residential encroachment permits (S-080) allow for a residential property to utilize the adjoining public right-of-way for their use and enjoyment, typically for landscape improvements. The revised fee was aligned to better capture staff time necessary to properly review and process the permit. Encroachment permits are subject to a one-time fee, for which the property owner takes on maintenance responsibility and liability for the improvements in the area, and are revocable. The requirements for an encroachment permit are detailed in Chapter 12.16 of the HBMC. Creating an annualized fee would require further legal analysis and modifications to the Code.

The revised fee structure for sidewalk vending (S-081G) will allow staff to recover time associated with what can be a time-consuming review process depending on the number of locations being requested by a potential vendor. As proposed, the initial application would be per location since it takes time to verify each location and then once approved the final fee is for the actual permit. Should City Council desire to further prohibit locations

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 7 of 9
for sidewalk vending, such as Pier Plaza, that will require further legal analysis and modification to the HBMC. To date, the City has issued only one permit on Pier Plaza for an art vendor. Should the City Council wish to further restrict sidewalk vending locations, including areas such as Pier Plaza, additional legal analysis and amendments to the HBMC would likely be required.

A-frames are covered under chapter 17 of the HBMC and are initiated through the Community Development Department as they may be located in either private or public property. Business owners are first required to obtain a temporary sign permit through the Community Development Department. Once approved, Public Works may then issue an encroachment permit in accordance with Chapter 12.16 of the HBMC for placement of the sign within the public right-of-way at the approved location. The Public Works fees are associated with permit processing and inspection to ensure adequate path of travel at the location of the A Frame. Modifications to the process may require changes to the HBMC.

Section 10.32.180 of the HBMC prohibits food trucks (vendor vehicles) from designated locations on City streets, unless approved by City Council. The proposed fee for S-081B intends to capture the staff time that would be required to evaluate any potential request(s) and bring the item forward to City Council for consideration. For reference, Public Works has not received any recent requests for food trucks; therefore, the fee could be eliminated but would result in a loss of staff time cost recovery should the City receive a future request(s).

Options for City Council Consideration:

Option 1: Adopt Full Cost Recovery Fees (Staff Recommended): Adopt the proposed fee increases now to allow full cost recovery, and direct staff to come back with reduced fee adjustments as new code changes and efficiencies come online.  Align fees with the full cost of service
 Reduce General Fund subsidies
 Direct staff to complete process review and identify efficiencies  Return to City Council with recalibrated fees once processes are refined  Allows for fiscal sustainability while maintaining flexibility for future adjustments Option 2: Adopt Partial Cost Recovery
 Maintain subsidies for selected services
 Provide direction on policy-based subsidies
Option 3: Maintain Current Fees
 Continue existing subsidy levels
 Increase pressure on the General Fund and future budgets Option 4: Defer Certain Fee Increases with Future Recalibration

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 8 of 9
 Adopt proposed fees now based on current processes and staff time EXCEPT for the following fees:
o S-003 CUP/PDP Condo
o S-018 Temporary Use Permit
o S-018A M-1 Zone Limited Events Permit
o S-024 Planning Commission Interpretation
o S-030 Planning Sign Permit
o S-030A Planning A Frame Sign Permit
o S-033 Administrative Use Permit
o S-001 CUP – Comm/Other
o S-003B CUP Annual Monitoring
o 2-034 Admin Permit – Abandon CUP
 Direct staff to complete process review and identify efficiencies  Return to City Council with recalibrated fees once processes are refined  Allows for near-term revenue improvement while maintaining flexibility for future adjustments.

Fiscal Impact:

The City Council’s action at the April 28 meeting to approve the majority of fee updates represents significant progress toward achieving full cost recovery and reducing reliance on General Fund subsidies.

Adoption of the proposed fee update would be effective July 1, 2026, and was estimated to generate up to $1.0 million in additional annual revenue if implemented at full cost recovery levels. The fees were adopted to be fully implemented in two years. Fees will be updated annually based on the Los Angeles-area Consumer Price Index (CPI) from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Actual revenue impacts will depend on:
 City Council direction regarding cost recovery levels;  Service demand and fee elasticity; and
 Market considerations for certain services.

If the City Council ultimately approves the remaining above fees under consideration at full cost recovery levels, the City will further reduce General Fund service cost subsidies and improve the City’s long-term fiscal sustainability. If the City Council does not approve increases for these fees, those service cost will continue to be subsidized by the General Fund, contributing to ongoing structural budget challenges identified in the FY 27 Fiscal Outlook presentation.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
By acceptance of the Revenue & Cost Specialists (RCS) proposal, the City of Hermosa Beach decided to subject its fee-based services to detailed analysis dedicated toward seeking alternate, and more equitable, ways to finance City services provided to the community. Due to the various demands made of the City, it is essential that the City Council and management have complete information upon which to assess fees charged to the public for services provided.

Schedule 1 at the end of this Executive Summary lists each service reviewed in this study. It indicates that the City could realize approximately $1,247,500 in additional new revenue if the recommendations provided here are adopted and implemented.

Organization of Report. This Executive Summary explains RCS’s philosophy concerning feebased services and cost analysis with a discussion of Costs Generally Defined. The report then lists the Types of Costs included in our analysis and our General Recommendations.

COSTS GENERALLY DEFINED
The basic costs of operating any business are direct labor and employee benefits, direct materials, and overhead costs.

Determination of Costs. After the passage of Proposition 13, the California Taxpayers Association, the California Chamber of Commerce, the National Tax Limitation Committee and the California Association of Realtors put Proposition 4 before the voters. It was adopted by

74.3% of the voters of California on November 6, 1979, and became effective on July 1, 1980, retroactive to Fiscal Year 1978-79.

This proposition, which became Article XIIIB of the State Constitution, addressed all city revenues and established a limit on the growth of tax revenues. Also, because of Proposition 4, fee services cannot exceed the “costs reasonably borne” by the City in providing the service. If the fee exceeds the cost, the excess fee is defined as a special tax, which Proposition 13 requires be approved by two-thirds of the voters. As Article XIIIB was written by the above business groups, it is not surprising that they recommended a business-oriented approach to the costs of governmental services.

Principle Involved. A basic principle involved in this Report is the recognition of those full business costs as they are as defined by the authors of the Constitutional amendment, NOT just those costs which 1) the City might recognize and decide to budget; or 2) which it might decide to use in some other cost analysis methodology; or 3) that other jurisdictions not so complying might use; or 4) that some accounting or other consulting firm might decide it should use, based on some external, non-California legal requirements.

3 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
These cost elements have been determined in a businesslike manner per basic business principles, and applied to each and every fee-financed or fee-financeable service provided by the City, modified only slightly to accommodate the published intent and definitions of the authors of Article XIIIB. Thus a logical, legal, and Constitutionally-mandated cost-consciousness can now be applied to City operations.

TYPES OF COSTS
The following costs, identified above as part of "costs reasonably borne" by the Authors of Proposition 4, make up the cost detail found on the right-hand page in Appendix B for each service center.

Salaries and Wages
City government is in fact a service industry, and therefore, it is natural that salaries make up the largest single element of cost for most services.

Interview Process. In order to allocate the salaries, interviews were held, documents sought and researched, and reports and accounting records examined by RCS. The result was, in most cases, a percentage or hours distribution of individual employee personal services costs.

One hundred percent of the time of all City employees was distributed. In other words, everyone had to be someplace, all of their time. No judgments were made about what personnel should or might be doing. Their time was distributed to those service centers where the time was expended.

Employee Fringe Benefits
Since fractional time -- to as low as three minutes per unit of service or one-twentieth of a percent of the annual time of an employee has been allocated to service centers, fringe benefit costs also must be fractionalized to carefully and accurately distribute those ancillary personnel costs.

The City finances numerous benefits for its employees, thereby incurring measurable costs for these items, including:
 PERS Retirement
 Medical/Dental Benefits
 Medicare Insurance
All of these costs are current operating expenses, and the amounts were isolated. Actual costs

4 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
were determined and reduced to a percentage of salary for each of the positions.

Available Work-Hours. After the individual elements of cost for positions was compiled, the total cost for each position was divided by the number of available work-hours. Available work hours were calculated as the total possible work-hours in a year, 2,080, less the following awayfrom-work benefit hours:
 Holidays (90 hours)
 Vacations (128 hours)
 Sick Leave – 50% Usage (48 hours)
 Morning/Afternoon Breaks (General – 45 hours)
 Start Up/Down Time (General – 91 hours)
Using this approach the average number of available work-hours used was calculated as 1,678 hours per year for 40 hour a week positions and 2,480 hours per year for Fire shift positions.

Maintenance and Operation Costs
All maintenance and operation costs, including non-personnel expenses such as professional services, insurance, operating supplies etc., were derived from the 24-25 Council-approved budget and allocated via percentages or through actual allocation to each of the service centers identified in a department or division.

General and Departmental Overhead Costs
Overhead costs provide the vital glue that holds an organization together operationally and provide important coordinating capabilities. They also provide the day-to-day support services and facilities required for the organization to function effectively. RCS has used a detailed Cost Allocation Plan (CAP) to identify and allocate these costs to the remainder of the City organization. In the CAP, costs were allocated to end-user departments and divisions by applying an overhead allocation factor. Each factor was related to the work effort of its particular overhead element and was assessed for relevance and reasonableness.

Full Cost Distribution. The purpose of deriving overhead costs to apportion these amounts to direct service program costs. By adopting this method the City will be aware of its true costs and be able to emulate business methods. Article XIIIB’s (Proposition 4 of 1979) authors intended this, defining as part of “costs reasonably borne” a calculated “reasonable allocation for overhead and administration.”
General City Overhead. These services primarily set policy and support other departments without providing a deliverable service to the public. Where they do perform an end-user service,

5 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
such costs have not been allocated to other departments.

Costs in this general administration category include the following functions:

Building Use Replacement. The replacement costs for City Hall, Community Center, City Yard, and Clark Building were calculated and depreciated over the standard 50 year life of a facility.

These costs were then allocated to the departments and services that use these buildings and become part of their overhead costs.

Departmental Administration. Costs in this category involve intra-departmental support functions, outside the above listed general City overhead functions, and involve the allocation of staff time within and among departmental functions. These services also do not provide enduser deliverables to the public, but instead provide vital administrative support within specific departments.

Fully Allocated Hourly Rates
All of the above items make up the fully allocated hourly rate which is calculated for each position in the City. The makeup of each component of the City-wide average fully allocated hourly rate is detailed in the chart below.

Calculation of Revenues. Many of the revenues included in this Report are calculated based on the current fee and the number of projected units of service. This may be different than the current budgeted revenues due to changes to projected volume, which comes from looking at historic volume and estimates of current year levels.

Market Sensitive Fees. One of the notes in the following Summary Schedule 1 has a note called “Market Sensitive Fees.” This is associated with certain public safety fees, such as false alarms and loud party responses. The point of these fees is not necessarily to recover revenue, but instead to encourage a certain behavior, such as fixing your alarm or quieting your party. These fees are structured in a way that allows for a certain number of free responses before the fee is charged. Thus, if the fee is working correctly there will be no revenue at all. Therefore, we don’t project any new revenues for these services.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Adoption of Modifications to Current Fee Structure
It is recommended that the City Council adjust the fee schedule for the enumerated City services presented in Appendix A of this Report. Continued use of the "full business costing" concept will create consistency in the establishment of fees, and allow for timely adjustment to reflect changes in the cost of providing services. In addition, Recreation and Community Resources fees should be set by the market on an annual basis and should therefore not be included in the list of services that are increased annually by inflation.

Review of Suggested Recovery Rates
The City Council should review each service and the suggested recovery rate to determine how much of each service should be recovered through fees, and how much should be subsidized through the City’s tax dollars. This review is very important because it gives City staff direction as to what the Council wants to subsidize and what it does not.

Comments about Specific Service Centers
S-051: Building Plan Check/Inspection. RCS has worked with City staff to create a New Construction Fee Schedule that is based on square footage instead of valuation. While both methods are valid, it is felt that charging fees based on the type of occupancy and the size of the construction is more equitable for the types of construction seen in Hermosa Beach. These new fees are detailed in Appendix C of this Report.

COMMUNITY RESOURCES
By their nature, recreation services are highly market driven and subject to a variety of external factors including consumer demand, location, facility amenities, demographics, and competing service providers. Adjustments in fees can arguably have a significant impact on consumer demand given a variety of elasticity factors that may be in play. This does not imply that additional revenues are unavailable, but fee levels are best set at the delivery point based on a flexible and market based pricing model within policy goals.

General Methodology Assumptions. The methodology generally used in developing service center revenue/cost calculations, as has been done in this study, is founded on key assumptions:

8 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
 First, service volumes are fairly constant and void of wide fluctuations in consumer patronage from year to year.
 Second, consumers have come to accept the economic value of continuing to use the identified service at a value that equates to the cost of providing the service.

It is important to note that these two assumptions are not particularly valid for recreation and community resources activities that are characterized by annual changes in program popularity combined with the influence of seasonal conditions. Furthermore, recreation and community services dollars are highly sensitive to overall market and economic conditions, as a service that strives to compete for an elusive discretionary income dollar.

Recreation and community resource fees are influenced by two factors generally not a factor in the delivery of other City services - marketing and social policy.

Social Policy. City Council should develop a conscious policy as to what programs and service centers should be subsidized with tax monies in promoting social benefit, and to what extent. It may well be that some level of subsidy for many of the services identified in this group is not only necessary, but appropriate.

Marketing. Given that these services are highly market sensitive and financed mostly by discretionary income, a special burden is placed on program managers to innovate and promote attendance. Those who run these programs know too well the need to convince customers of the value-added features of their services. If fees are set too high, attendance and consequently revenues will drop. On the other hand, establishing fee levels artificially low will result in a flood of demand beyond resource capabilities.

Pricing. If priced strictly at average cost, fee increases can result in reduced participation leading to additional reactionary price increases and further losses in patronage. As such, prices for leisure and cultural services must be set carefully. The potential number of target customers should be estimated as part of an aggressive program marketing those services at determined price levels. Some important considerations in setting pricing follow:
 Has a marketing study been performed?
 Have programs been selected for their popularity?

9 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
 Do City programs compete with offerings made by other agencies, organizations, or private businesses who can supply the program at less cost?  Is there a less costly way for the City to supply the service?  Has sufficient money been budgeted to advertise the program adequately and how is the number of participants affected by the level of advertising?  What costs would NOT be incurred or REMAIN were the program not to be offered?  What is the cost of adding one more participant; of opening one more section of the activity?
 Are participants polled for their reaction to the offering, the instructor, the facility, and for their ideas for possible programs and the amounts that they are willing to pay?  Are some facilities more costly to operate than others? What are the costs of electricity, water, gas, janitorial, maintenance, telephone, vandalism, and the like for each facility?  How do existing facilities compare to those provided by the competition in creating either a price advantage or disadvantage?
 Has the clientele of the activity been defined allowing the City to understand the social purpose in subsidizing the activity?
A number of these issues have already been addressed by City staff in past studies and reports and are merely presented to illustrate the issues involved in operating such services.

In determining what should be charged for services it ultimately is the responsibility of recreation professionals to recommend a combination of decreased costs, increased participation and fee adjustments needed to meet the degree of recovery that is ultimately determined by the City Council. For programs to be relevant and responsive to customers, they need to be flexible with their resources.

Detail of Recreation Services in Appendix D. The total costs of Recreation services are broken out to its component parts in Appendix D. Previously the City Council approved cost recovery goals for these services, and they are identified as Approved Direct Cost Recovery. For the most part, these are percentages of direct costs, which are direct part time salaries and benefits and direct operating expenses. These goals are set as a percentage of these direct costs because it is easier to measure the cost recovery from year to year. Also included are updated cost recovery goals based on current cost recovery rates.

10 City of Hermosa Beach Fee Study Update
The City Council should now review these cost recovery goals to ensure that they are realistic goals while taking into account the market and social issues detailed above.

All Things To All People
While the City is deciding who to subsidize and what to finance, it should remember it cannot provide all things to all people. It should therefore prioritize what it hopes to accomplish. If the Council decides to provide more subsidies today, it is doing so at the expense of other services which can only be financed by tax dollars, such as Police Patrol services, Fire/Medical Aid services, Street Maintenance, and other public services. Therefore the Council must decide which direction it wants to proceed in, fully aware of the consequences of either action.

CONCLUSION
If all the recommendations and suggestions made in this Report are adopted, the City's financial picture would be improved. Also, far more equity between taxpayers and fee-payers, as well as fairness between property-related and non-property-related services could be secured, assisting in the City's continued financial stability into the future. The following Schedule 1 portrays the various services assessed during our analysis.

Appendix A – Summary of Current and Proposed Fees
Appendix A includes a summary of the current City fees matched up with the proposed fees for each service presented.

Appendix B - Detailed Worksheets
The substance of RCS’s work effort on this project is primarily comprised of two different worksheets shown in the detail of this report (see Appendix B). The first, "Revenue and Cost Summary Worksheet" is on the left hand side. These worksheets include a description of the service, the current fee structure, the recommended recovery rate, and other pertinent information. Also included are the revenue and cost comparisons and suggestions for fee modifications.

Presented on the facing page, titled "Cost Detail Worksheet", is the worksheet which details the costs involved with each service. This page identifies those employees providing the service, the time spent, and their related costs.

Appendix C – Detail of Building & Safety Fees
Appendix D – Detail of Recreation Services
The total costs of Recreation services are broken out to its component parts in Appendix C.

Previously the City Council approved cost recovery goals for these services, and they are identified as Approved Direct Cost Recovery. For the most part, these are percentages of direct costs, which are direct part time salaries and benefits and direct operating expenses. These goals are set as a percentage of these direct costs because it is easier to measure the cost recovery from year to year.
