HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
City of Long Beach
California
RECOMMENDATION:

Receive the supporting documentation into the record, conclude the public hearing, and adopt a Resolution amending the Master Fee and Charges Schedule. (Citywide)

DISCUSSION
City Council approval is requested for the list of proposed Mid-Year Fee Adjustments for Fiscal Year 2022 (FY 22), which describes the proposed changes to the City of Long Beach's (City) Master Fee and Charges Schedule. As part of the annual Budget Adoption process, the City Council last reviewed and amended the Master Fee and Charges Schedule for specified City services on September 7, 2021. Fees are required to cover the cost of service except where the City Council finds greater public benefit through the use of a lower fee. On September 5, 2017, the City Council adopted an amended Financial Policy on User Fees and Charges, which reads:

User Fees and Charges Will be Set at the Cost of the Service Background - Fees and associated charges are associated with recovering the cost of providing a service. The City can charge up to the full cost of providing a service.

Policy -
a. Fees will be set at a level to fully recover costs, except where there is a greater public benefit through use of a lower fee, such as where full recovery may adversely impact overall revenue or may discourage participation in programs where the participation benefits the overall community. b. The City Manager will establish a process for in-depth review of all fees over time.

The review, while eventually covering all fees, should emphasize those that have or may have significant subvention (may not be at full cost).

City staff may recommend fees that are not set at the full cost of service, or the City Council may choose not to adopt a fee with full cost recovery because it would negatively impact the public good. Specific new fees are being introduced to address the demand and provision for City services. Charging a fee allows residents the benefit of a service that may otherwise not be possible without sufficient revenue to offset the cost of providing the service. Some City services in low demand may not initially be assigned a fee. However, if demand increases, there may be a need to evaluate the service and propose a fee that aligns with the cost of the service being provided. Changes in the regulatory environment may also result in new fees being developed.

Bi-annual fee adjustments, deletions, and additions are the process by which the broad-based changes to fees are presented to the City Council and the public for consideration. The proposed fee changes currently being presented to the City Council represent the FY 22 Mid­ Year Fee Adjustments, which immediately take effect upon adoption. The next citywide fee adjustment process will occur during the FY 23 Budget Adoption process and will take effect on October 1, 2022.

In FY 19, City staff initiated an updated citywide fee study to conduct a comprehensive cost of service analysis for the City's numerous fees and charges for services across various City departments. The study is a multi-year effort that started with the Development Services, Health and Human Services, and Parks, Recreation and Marine Departments. On April 6, 2021 and May 4, 2021, City staff provided an update on the study to the City Council for these departments. On May 18, 2021, the recommended fee changes based on each department's study were approved as part of a FY 21 mid-year adjustment to the Master Fees and Charges Schedule. The second round of the study included the Energy Resources and Public Works Departments. On February 1, 2022, City staff presented the results of the cost of service studies to the City Council. Each department's proposed new, adjusted, and deleted fees related to the cost of services studies are listed in the List of Department Recommendations (Attachments A 1 and A2). The proposed changes are based on the recommendations from the completed fee studies (Attachments B1 and B2). In addition to changes related to the cost of services studies, proposed fee changes also include other fee recommendations from departments necessary for administrative and operational purposes (Attachment C).

This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Anita Lakhani on April 25, 2022 and by Revenue Management Officer Geraldine Alejo on April 22, 2022.

TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action is requested on May 10, 2022, to increase cost-recovery as soon as possible. The City Council must adopt the attached Resolution for fee adjustments to be implemented.

FISCAL IMPACT
As part of the adopted budget for a fiscal year, the Master Fees and Charges Schedule is evaluated and adjusted accordingly for the natural growth in the cost of providing services.

However, mid-year changes may be required to align fees and charges to changes in costs, services, or operations after budget adoption. The annual revenue changes from the proposed fee changes described in Attachments A and C are theoretical estimates based on anticipated service usage in FY 22. Annual revenue changes are theoretical and may not result in changes to budgeted revenues by the same amount. Changes to budgeted revenues are evaluated holistically as part of the budget process and will consider various factors, including each department's current revenue commitments to support its operations, stability of a revenue source, and market or economic conditions.

The proposed FY 22 mid-year fee adjustments are estimated to result in a net theoretical revenue increase of $383,679 in all funds, with an increase of $442,242 in the General Fund Group. In other fund groups, the estimated annual revenue change resulting from the proposed

HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
May 10, 2022

fee changes is an overall reduction of $58,563. This net revenue decrease in other funds is comprised of revenue reductions in the amount of $104,525 in the Gas Fund Group and $14,968 in the Civic Center Fund Group, as well as estimated revenue increases of $60,000 in the Development Services Fund Group, $900 in the Health Fund Group, and $30 in the Tidelands Operating Fund Group.

Proposed Fee Changes - Cost of Services Studies
The City selected an independent consultant to perform a comprehensive and detailed cost of service analysis for each City department. This multi-year effort continues with the Energy Resources and Public Works Departments. Across both departmental studies, the consultant worked closely with City staff to identify services offered by each department, calculate the full cost of service, including labor, benefits, materials, supplies, and overhead/administrative expenditures, and identified subsidies per service. Each study's findings and associated department recommendations were presented to the City Council on February 1, 2022. A summary of study findings for cost recovery and subvention rates at the current fee rates and revenue levels is as follows:

Cost Recovery and Subvention Rates Based on Current Fee Levels Total Cost
Calculated Current Fee Total Profit/ Recovery Subvention Department Service Cost Revenue (Subvention) % %
Energy Resources $9,824,891 $8,320,666 ($1,504,225) 85% 15% Public Works $4,220,930 $3,300,455 ($920,475) 78% 22%
Each study provided recommended fee levels to align with full cost recovery and eliminate subsidies. While most proposed fee changes by the departments align with the study recommendations, department recommendations will differ in certain areas based on various factors, including the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the community and rate increase impacts to participation. Increasing fees at the rates suggested by the studies to achieve cost recovery is a significant policy decision by the City Council as there are two competing goals - (1) keeping the cost of services and development low to the community; or (2) achieving less subsidy and higher cost recovery through increased financial participation by the direct user.

City Council input on these concepts is welcomed as the project moves forward.

If the proposed fee changes are approved, the theoretical revenue impact from the proposed changes is estimated at $334,777, comprised of a $439,302 increase in the General Fund Group and a $104,525 decrease in the Gas Fund Group. Due to the large number of proposed fee changes based on the studies, the following discussion will highlight and summarize key changes with estimated revenue impacts from the proposed changes. Individual proposed fee changes are detailed in Attachment A.

Long Beach Energy Resources
Based on the Energy Resources Department's study recommendations, the department is proposing various changes across its various services primarily related to development and construction. This includes new fee structures to align with service provision, as well as both fee increases and decreases. Overall, the department is recovering 85 percent of its costs

HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
May 10, 2022

across all services reviewed by the study. Further, while the study identified several areas across all bureaus where fees must be increased to align with the full cost of service, it also identified areas where the department had been over-collecting costs and fees must be decreased. For example, the department is proposing fee reductions for feed analysis, project administration, and processing engineering agreements with outside agencies which will address the over-recovery of costs in its construction & pipelines service area. The department is also recommending no changes to other customer and utility services fees. This includes fees where the study agreed with the current rates such as those for service establishment, meter installation, and meter repair. Additionally, recommendations for no changes also extend to the various customer and utility services fees that will continue below full cost recovery such as missed appointments, re-connections for residential and non-residential units, and duplicate bills. The department will continue to subsidize these services as increases may result in financial hardship to customers during this rebound period from the pandemic. If the department recommendations are approved, a net theoretical revenue decrease of $104,525 is anticipated in the Gas Fund Group and includes revenue reductions from fee decreases in areas where rates are currently set higher than the cost of service.

Public Works
The Public Works Department cost of services study evaluated fees and charges across various service categories: engineering, traffic engineering, field operations, and stormwater.

Overall, the study found that that the department is currently recovering 78 percent of its cost of service. Department recommendations include various rate increases and rate decreases to meet cost recovery and operational needs, as well as changes to fee structures to better streamline processes. If approved, the department recommendations are anticipated to result in a net theoretical revenue increase of $439,302 in the General Fund Group. New structures are proposed to align with service provision for various services including permit inspections and temporary street occupancy. Rate decreases are recommended for areas where the department is currently charging higher than the calculated cost of service and includes public art permits, traffic control plan review, tract map review, and street & alley vacations. Finally, department recommendations also propose to phase-in cost increase for popular services including driveway tip and curb painting on request, preferential parking, and no parking sign fees. While the study is recommending substantial fee increases to align with the cost of service, the department will continue subsidize these services with fee increases spread over the next three years to avoid a steep spike in costs to the community.

Other Proposed Fee Changes
City Manager
Cannabis Social Equity Program Fee
Per LBMC Chapter 5.92, as part of the social equity program, adult-use cannabis businesses must meet certain equity requirements, including hiring individuals who qualify for the equity program and ensuring that they perform at least 40 percent of the business' work hours. Since 2008, the City has charged a $2,500 fee to offset the cost to manage the social equity program including public outreach, eligibility verification, and program compliance. The social equity fee was charged only to cannabis businesses that do not qualify for the cannabis social equity

HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
May 10, 2022

program and was established at the onset of the program. The fee has since been reviewed as part of the City Manager's Cost of Services Study, which has not yet been presented to the City Council, and preliminary study findings recommend a fee decrease to align with actual service cost. The department proposes to expedite this fee change in advance of the City Council presentation of final study findings and reduce the fee from $2,500 to $1,545. The proposed change is anticipated to result in a reduction of approximately $115,000 in revenue annually.

Development Services
Additional Electrical Plan Check for Title 24 Energy
Title 24 of the California Building Code promotes energy efficiency in new construction and any new installations or retrofits in existing buildings. The Development Services Department previously charged a Title 24 electrical plan check fee to offset cost related to the increased review associated with Title 24 standards. In FY 17, the fee was inadvertently removed from the Master Fees and Charges Schedule. The department is currently assessing this fee to customers at a rate of $11.20 per 1,000 square feet but not less than $96.90. To align the Master Fees and Charges Schedule to department operations, the department is requesting to reinstate the fee at a revised rate of $0.0224 per square foot, but not less than $100 (or $22.40 per 1,000 square feet). The proposed rate will align with existing fees for similar work and is calculated based on the same methodology applied as part of the Development Services Cost of Services Study. The proposed fee is anticipated to generate $60,000 in annual revenue.

Termination of Notice of Lien
To encourage property owners to comply with notices to remedy deficiencies on their properties, the Code Enforcement Bureau of the Development Services Department will issue administrative citations. In some instances, property owners refuse to pay these citations. To ensure that these citations are eventually paid, City staff works with the City Treasurer's Office and the County of Los Angeles to impose liens on the properties. Staff determined that the work to remove the liens is equivalent to the work required to prepare the liens. The Development Services Department is requesting that the fee to terminate notice of a lien in the substandard, weed abatement, abandoned vehicles, and vacant buildings programs be increased from $60 to $165, which is the same as the fee to prepare a lien. Staff terminates notice of a lien approximately 1,200 times per year. The proposed changes were reconsidered after the Development Services Department Cost of Services Study recommendations were approved by the City Council on May 18, 2021, due to the recalculated amount of time it takes to terminate the notice of the lien. The proposed fee increase is anticipated to increase annual revenues by approximately $120,000.
lnclusionary Housing In-Lieu Fees
On February 2, 2021, the City Council established inclusionary housing in-lieu fees for residential ownership and rental development projects. Developers may pay these fees in-lieu of constructing the required inclusionary units. In-lieu fee revenue will be deposited into a Housing Trust Fund and used specifically to support the inclusionary housing program.

Estimated annual revenues are currently unknown, and the rates will vary based on residential

development type (i.e., rental or ownership). Further, the rate will depend on the year the application is first presented for approval. In accordance with City Council direction on November 9, 2021 to apply an annual adjustment, the department proposes the following rate structure which begins with applications submitted during calendar year 2021 and applies annual rate adjustments based on the change in new home values for Los Angeles County, as published by the Real Estate Research Council:
lnclusionary Housing In-Lieu Fee Fee
Rental Residential Development
Rental Residential Developments- $20.80 multiplied by the entire leasable area of Year 1 (01/01/2021-12/31/2021) the residential development OR for a fractional inclusionary unit shall be the product of such
fraction multiplied by $375,400.

Rental Residential Developments- If submitted during calendar year 2022 or any Each Subsequent Year (Annually from subsequent year, the prior year fee shall be 01/01/2022) adjusted by the annual percentage change in new home values for Los Angeles County as
published by the Real Estate Research Council.

Ownership Residential Development
Ownership Residential Developments- $14.00 multiplied by the saleable area of the Year 1 (01/01/2021-12/31/2021) residential development OR the for a fractional inclusionary unit shall be the product of such
fraction multiplied by $413,300.

Ownership Residential Developments- If submitted during calendar year 2022 or any Each Subsequent Year (Annually from subsequent year, the prior year fee shall be 01/01/2022) adjusted by the annual percentage change in new home values for Los Angeles County as
published by the Real Estate Research Council.

Health and Human Services
Annual Permit for Soft Serve Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt The Health and Human Services Department currently charges annual permit fees to dairy soft serve ice cream, non-dairy soft serve ice cream, and frozen yogurt units. The assessed fee rates are set according to the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), with 15 percent of each permit fee remitted to the CDFA. The remainder of the permit fee revenue remains in the Health Fund to cover the program's operating costs, including lab sampling, inspections, and administration of permits. Effective January 1, 2022, the State increased the annual permit fees to $342. As a result, the department is requesting to increase its fees from $333 to $342 to align its fees to those set by the State. Anticipated annual net revenue change to the City is estimated at $900.

Annual Health Permit and Plan Check Fees for Shared-Use Cannabis Manufacturing On July 13, 2021, the City Council adopted a new ordinance to allow shared-use cannabis manufacturing. The Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) currently allows for the licensing and regulation of cannabis manufacturing facilities. However, each licensed location is limited to

HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
May 10, 2022

one operator conducting manufacturing activities at the licensed premises. The shared-use manufacturing license will allow for multiple cannabis manufacturers to operate out of a single space, similar to a shared-commercial kitchen, whereby multiple businesses can rent a single facility, at separate times, to prepare their products for consumers.

The Health and Human Services Department is proposing to establish a fee structure specific to shared-use cannabis manufacturing that will include the annual health permit and plan check fees necessary to inspect and regulate these facilities in accordance with California Health and Safety Code and LBMC regulations. The recommended fee structure is set at cost recovery and based on existing fees for adult use cannabis manufacturer, shared food facility tenant, and food processor plan check fees which are similar in scope and City staff time. Furthermore, the propose annual permit fees for shared-use cannabis manufacturing facility include additional costs to reflect the increased City staff time required for these types of inspections including maintenance of common-use areas, sanitization between tenants, review of tenant use schedules, and security protocols for tenant access.

The department is currently engaged in a cost of services study for its Environmental Health fees, including shared-use cannabis manufacturing. Establishing a fee structure, based on preliminary study findings, is needed to support the work specific to this new program in advance of a completed cost of services study. Upon completion of the cost of services study, if needed, the Health and Human Services Department will return to the City Council with study findings and proposed adjustments to these fees. At that time, additional analysis may also be available comparing the City's rate structure to other environmental health agencies with similar and comparable programs. As this is a new program, the estimated revenue impact from the following proposed fee structure are currently unknown and will be based on the number of shared-use facilities in the City:

The Parks, Recreation and Marine Department charges a fee to visiting customers that stay at Shoreline Marina. The FOB key is manually programed in the Marina office to provide access to enter and exit the dock, then is disabled following a guest's departure. The department proposes to increase the FOB key charge from the $5 to $10 per key to cover staff and materials. Further, the increase is anticipated to incentivize guests to properly maintain and return the FOB key, reducing the need to replace lost FOB keys. The fee increase is estimated to generate $250 in annual revenue.

Live Aboard Key Deposit
The Parks, Recreation and Marine Department issues a hard key to live-aboard boat owners at Shoreline Marina for access to the dock gates in case the electronic FOB system malfunctions. The current deposit is $105 per key, which will be refunded if the key is returned.

To align the live aboard key deposit rate to deposit rates charged for restroom and mail box keys at Shoreline Marina, the department proposes to decrease the key deposit charge to $100. The proposed changes are anticipated to result in an annual revenue decrease of $250.

Dry Boat Storage Wait-List Fee
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department currently offers dry boat storage at Marine Stadium and maintains a wait-list for potential renters. Currently, the department charges a $32 one-time fee to customers requesting to place themselves on the wait-list. The fee is used to cover administrative costs associated with managing the wait-list and deter individuals who have not yet purchased a boat from placing themselves on the wait-list for storage space. The department proposes to increase the wait-list fee to $33, which will then align with the department's other one-time, wait-list fee for shore mooring for small vessels at the Peninsula and Bayshore storage racks. The estimated annual revenue change for the proposed fee increase is $30.

HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
May 10, 2022

Microchip
The Parks, Recreation and Marine Department charges a microchip fee for microchipping pets which are redeemed or adopted from Long Beach Animal Care Services. The current fee is $25 per microchip and was included and confirmed at full cost recovery as part of the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department's Cost of Services study. The department has since reviewed the fee in accordance with the study's methodology, including City staff costs associated with providing the service. Based on review, the department proposes to reduce the fee from $25 to $15 per microchip. The proposed change will align with cost recovery, and promote affordable, fair and equitable access to department services. The proposed fee change is estimated to reduce annual revenues by $2,060.

Public Works
Parking Management, Civic Center Structure - Transient Parking and Library Validation
The Public Works Department proposes to restructure its transient parking and library validation rates at the Civic Center parking structure. The proposed changes will improve the customer experience and address parking equipment limitations by eliminating change requirements, simplifying the rate structures, and increasing the time increment before the maximum rate is charged to patrons. The current transient parking rate at Civic Center parking structure is free for the first 30 minutes, and then $1.75 for every 20 minutes beyond the initial 30 minutes, with a $12 daily maximum rate. The department proposes to increase the transient parking rate by $0.25 to a revised rate of $2, but extend the time increment and charge patrons for every 30 minutes beyond the initial 30 minutes, with the maximum daily rate remaining at $12. Under the proposed structure, the amount of time covered by the maximum rate of $12 will increase from around 2 hours and 40 minutes to 3 hours. Furthermore, to align its library validation rates to these revised transient parking rates, the department also proposes to restructure the library validation rates from the current $1.75 for the first 2 hours to $2 for the first 3 hours. While the validation rate charged to the patron is increasing by $0.25, the validation period will be extended by one hour. The following proposed changes to the current transient parking and library validation rates are anticipated to result in an estimated annual revenue decrease of $14,968:

4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Long Beach selected Revenue and Cost Sp
ecialists (RCS) to perform a
comprehensive and detailed analysis of the Energy R
esources Department’s fee-based
services. Due to the various demands made of the C
ity, it is essential that the City Council
and management have complete information upon which
to assess fees charged to the
public for services provided as well as alternate,
and more equitable, ways to finance City
services provided to the community.

Based on data presented in this report, the City Co
uncil can better respond to the limits on
tax and rate revenues available to the City as well
as the constant demand for higher and
more operational services and capital improvements. Due to demands made of the City, it is
essential that the Council and City management have
additional information upon which to
assist in charting a future financial course that w
ill preserve the quality of life which its
citizens have come to expect.

Systematic and Documented Approach. This analysis w
as designed to provide the City with
a systematic and documented approach to understand,
control, and recapture the costs
which are forced on it by normal service demands, growth and general economic inflation.

Constitutional Methodology. The methodology used fo
r this analysis is the "costs
reasonably borne" test established by Section 8(c)
of Proposition 4, now Article XIIIB of the
California Constitution and Proposition 26. In foll
owing that process, RCS has analyzed the
ways in which City services can be financed more eq
uitably to assure the City's future
financial viability.

Full Business Costs Determined. The methodology fo
llowed by both the Authors of
Proposition 4, and consequently by RCS, determines
the full business cost of providing the
reported City services. It also identifies the beneficiar ies of those services and determines if
they are paying in relationship to benefits derived
or if they are deserving of a subsidy paid
from the taxes paid by all local citizens and busin
esses. Thus, the City Council will have full
knowledge of costs which are actually occurring.

Financial Integrity Established. This report summar
izes the work accomplished and
presents recommendations. These recommendations, if
implemented, would establish the
financial integrity of the analyzed City services a
nd would establish a continuing cost
control system following the business principles wh
ich are generally espoused for
government, but often are ignored in application.

5 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

Identifying Service Centers

There are three basic steps in the process used by
RCS. The first step is to identify the
services offered by the City. Next, the service cos
ts are calculated. Finally, the revenue
currently received is matched to the cost of provid
ing the service to determine if there is a
subsidy from taxes.

Refinement Process. In a series of meetings held with City staff, department by department,
we developed a list of services, and then allocated
staff time to the appropriate services.

This service time was refined over the course of the
se meetings until all available staff time
was allocated and represented an accurate allocation.

Personal Choice versus Community Supported Services

Personal Choice Services are those offered to ident
ifiable customers at a measured level.

They are also services that can be withheld for non
-payment. These services are not
precisely likened to fee-based services to the exte
nt that policy makers may have decided
to subsidize them in full or part. These services
are distinguished from Community
Supported Services that carry an implicit requireme
nt and rationale for setting a level of
subsidization typically based on social, safety or general community welfare.

Summary of Results

If all the recommendations and suggestions made in
this Report are adopted, the City
would increase cost recovery by
$80,675
on an annual basis. By taking such actions, far
more equity between taxpayers and fee-payers would
be gained, and the City’s financial
picture would be improved.

6 Executive Summary

Policy Review Information

As the Council conducts its policy review of each o
f the revenue-cost match-ups, it should
refer to Appendix A and also to the text in Chapter IV to assist in that review.

The policy review should assess the tax revenues us
ed to subsidize each service and
address the following options available to the City for eac h service center:

1. Reduce costs and thereby the tax subsidy by reducin
g the level of service or
restructuring the service to provide it differently.

2. Adjust or institute a fee or charge to recover all of the "c osts reasonably borne".

3. Eliminate a tax subsidy to another "less deserving"
service to utilize the taxes
in order to provide this service.

Result of Acceptance of Fee Suggestions

If the suggestions in Chapter IV and in the fee reco
mmendations in Appendix A are adopted
in full then a significant amount of added revenues
will be available to the City, which
would provide ratepayer equity. Most of these new r
evenues will be from fee increases to
replace rate monies used to make up the difference
between fees collected and costs
incurred in providing the services, which will then be avai lable for those services which can
only be funded from rates.

These rate "diversions" are the now-documented rate
subsidies to potentially self-
supporting City services. Thus, additional monies c
ould be made available for other
Department services which are not generally conduci
ve to service charges, thereby
achieving much closer equity between benefits and associat ed payments.

Policy Guidance. More importantly, the Council wou
ld be able to make its decisions based
on business principles as much as is possible.

Understanding of Equitable Charging for Government. The City Council now has to assist its
constituents to understand that under the California Const itution the intent is that:



Taxes and rates finance services for which there is
no alternative way to finance
them.


Service charges should be utilized to finance those
things for which benefits can
be determined.


Beneficiaries of such services be charged in direct
relationship to the benefits
derived.

Financing Adjustments Pursuant to Proposition 4

Proposition 4, which is more commonly referred to a
s the "Gann Spirit of 13 'Let's Finish
the Job' Initiative", was adopted by 74.3% of the v
oters of California on November 6, 1979.

It became effective on July 1, 1980, retroactive to
Fiscal Year 1978-1979. Statutes clarifying
certain provisions of the Proposition, which is now
Article XIIIB of the California
Constitution, became effective January 1, 1981.

This report provides data to the City for reviewing the re ported fee-financed services based
on full-costing information and for implementing th
e "costs reasonably borne" provision of
this Constitutional Article, within presently known
legal parameters and the authors'
pronounced and published intent.

Adjustments to Financing. As a result of this analy
sis, the City now possesses the basis for
making necessary adjustments to its methods of fina
ncing services for those services
reported on herein. It can achieve a more equitable and fai r mix for financing those services
and capital needs, using taxes and service charges,
in the direction pointed by passage of
Article XIIIB, and the business methodologies inherent in t hat Article.

It should be remembered from the start that taxes a
re now limited and controlled, and
therefore the capability of using these taxes to su
bsidize "special" services which are
wholly or partially fee-financed is also limited.

The "Costs Reasonably Borne" Test. The "costs reason
ably borne" process as envisioned by
the Authors of Proposition 4 implies a direct relat
ionship between payment of fees and
charges and receipt of services. It also implies th
e use of taxes for financing those
governmental activities which humanely and properly
cannot be financed other than by
taxes.

Desirability of Direct Relationship between Payment and S ervice

This direct fee-for-service and tax equity relation
ship does not exist when tax monies are
used to subsidize services which are received by on
ly a small portion of the taxpaying
public or by non-residents. A major underlying goal of this project is to provide information
and guidance to the Council on

how the City can continue as a viable financial ent
ity,
finance the services and facilities that its citize
ns and business enterprises have come to
expect, and yet in the long run be able to live wit
hin the limits imposed by Article XIIIB and
Propositions 13, 218, and 26.

10 Chapter I – Background of Study

At the same time, the City can in great part re-est
ablish basic fairness and equity between
users of City services and those who pay for them a
nd control those costs on a continuing
basis.

Impact of Propositions 4, 13, 26, and 218

Initiative 4 of November 1979, coupled with its immed
iate predecessor -- Proposition 13 of
a year earlier -- wrought the greatest changes in C
alifornia governmental financing in a
century. Proposition 218, passed in 1996 and becom
ing Articles XIIIC & D, further limited
local governments’ revenue source options. Those pro
positions have had, and will continue
to have, a profound effect on California governments.

Effects on the City. One effect of these propositio
ns has been a constant search for new
revenue sources to finance services required by the
City. However, at the same time, State
and Federal program revenues continue to decrease.

Consequently, the City faces the
prospect of declining revenue with which to fund City serv ices.

Costs Exceeding Revenues. The full costs of deliver
ing the City's defined fee-financed
services -- as defined in business terms by the authors of Article XIIIB, and as applied by the
business methods of this analysis as based on that
Constitutional Article -- are running at
an annual rate beyond current or expected fee reven
ues. The result is the diversion of tax
monies or revenues from other service areas within
an enterprise fund to make up the
difference between fee revenues collected and full busines s costs incurred.

Variety of Equitable Revenue Sources. This analysis
presents a wide variety of ways in
which revenue can surely and legally be raised and
as important, more equitably raised
than at present. The amount of new revenues to be
raised is dependent upon the Council's
determination of the level of support for essential service s.

Proposition 26.

With the passage of Proposition 26 in 2010, these p
rinciples were
codified with some changes. Article XIII C of the S
tate Constitution was amended to
formally declare that fees are not considered taxes
if they do not exceed the reasonable
costs of the service. Some of the types of service
s for which reasonable fees are
allowable are:

(1)

A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred o
r privilege granted 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 conferr
ing the benefit or granting the
privilege.
(2)

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
11 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

exceed the reasonable costs to the local government
of providing the service or
product.
(3)

A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory cost
s to a local government for
issuing licenses and permits, performing investigat
ions, inspections, and audits,
enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the ad
ministrative enforcement and
adjudication thereof.

Article XIII C also provides that a local governmen
t agency must demonstrate that the
amount of revenue to be generated by a fee is no mo
re than necessary to cover the
reasonable costs of the governmental activity suppo
rted by the fee, and that the manner in
which those costs are allocated to a payor bear a f
air or reasonable relationship to the
payor’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the
governmental activity. This Report was
prepared in accordance with these principles.

12 CHAPTER II

IDENTIFYING AND COSTING SERVICE CENTERS

There are three basic steps in the process used by
RCS. The first step is to identify the
services offered by the City. Next, the service cos
ts are calculated. Finally, the revenue
currently received is matched to the cost of provid
ing the service to determine if there is a
subsidy from taxes. This chapter covers the first t
wo steps and Chapter III shows the
match-up of revenues and costs.

Identifying Service Centers

Two techniques were utilized to identify the servic
e centers for which revenue and cost
data were gathered and around which the service cost analysi s of this Report is built.

Revenue Analysis

The first technique involved gathering revenue info
rmation for the 2021 Fiscal Year, and
then updating and revising the budget estimates for
the same revenue sources for this
fiscal year.

Budgets and Financial Reports Used. The Budget for
the 2021 Fiscal Year was secured and
analyzed. Budgeted and received revenues for all fe
e-supported services were extracted
from those reports, where such information was available.

Division of Revenue Sources. RCS has divided servic
es into far smaller "service centers"
than the City has traditionally designated.

Service Center Identification

The second technique involved several scheduled mee
tings with City staff to identify each
type of service being provided with or without charge.

Refinement Process. In a series of meetings held with City staff, department by department,
we developed a list of services, and then allocated
staff time to the appropriate services.

This service time was refined over the course of the
se meetings until all available staff time
was allocated and represented an accurate allocation.

13 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

Resultant Service Centers

"Service Center" Defined. The "service revenue" --
fee or charge for a service -- and the
related "service cost" comprise a "service center".

Each service center has a unique
"Revenue and Cost Summary Worksheet" and a matching
"Cost Detail Worksheet”, which
are found in Appendix B of this Report. These "Serv
ice Center Worksheets" are matched to
one another on facing pages.

Types of Costs

The following costs make up the cost detail found o
n 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 salarie
s, lengthy interviews were held,
documents sought and researched, and reports and ac
counting records examined by RCS.

The result was a percentage or hours distribution of
individual employee personal services
costs.

One hundred percent of the time of all City employees was d istributed across the applicable
service centers. This study did not provide operat
ional assessments or recommendations
for improvements to services.

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 carefu
lly and accurately distribute those
ancillary personnel costs.

The City finances numerous benefits for its employe
es, thereby incurring measurable costs
for these items, including:



PERS/PARS Retirement


Health Benefits


Social Security/Medicare Insurance


Payroll/Post-Employment Benefits
14 Chapter II – Identifying and Costing Service Centers



Workers Compensation Insurance

All of these costs are current operating expenses,
and the amounts were isolated. Actual
costs were determined and reduced to a percentage of salary for each of the positions.

Available Work-Hours. After the individual element
s 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 po
ssible work-hours in a year, 2,080, less
the following away-from-work benefit hours:



Holidays


Vacations


Personal Leave


Sick Leave


Morning/Afternoon Breaks


Start Up/Down Time

Maintenance and Operation Costs

All maintenance and operation costs, including non-
personnel expenses such as
professional services, insurance, operating supplie
s etc., were derived from the current
year Council-approved budget and allocated via perc
entages or through actual allocation to
each of the service centers identified in a department or div ision.

General and Departmental Overhead Costs

Overhead costs provide the vital glue that holds an
organization together operationally and
provide important coordinating capabilities. They a
lso provide the day-to-day support
services and facilities required for the organizati
on to function effectively. RCS has used a
detailed Cost Allocation Plan (CAP) provided by the
City 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 agreed-upo
n overhead allocation factor. Each
factor was related to the work effort of its partic
ular overhead element and was assessed
for relevance and reasonableness.
15 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

Full Cost Distribution. The purpose of deriving ov
erhead 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. Art
icle XIIIB’s (Proposition 4 of 1979)
authors intended this, defining as part of “costs r
easonably borne” a calculated “reasonable
allocation for overhead and administration.”

General City Overhead. These services primarily se
t policy and support other departments
without providing a deliverable service to the publ
ic. Where they do perform an end-user
service, such costs have not been allocated to othe
r departments. The Citywide Indirect
Cost Plan was used to determine these allocations.

Costs in this general administration category City-wide include the following functions:

Departmental Administration. Costs in this categor
y involve intra-departmental support
functions, outside the above listed general City ov
erhead functions, and involve the
allocation of staff time within and among departmen
tal functions. These services also do
not provide end-user deliverables to the public, bu
t instead provide vital administrative
support within specific departments.

OVERVIEW OF SERVICE REVENUES MATCHED AGAINST COSTS

In the last chapter the method of calculating the c
osts for all City services was identified.

This chapter begins with a Summary that itemizes the revenue s and costs by service center.

Then, an overview is presented of what will be pres
ented in the following chapter, which
shows that there is no one solution to the City’s financial c hallenge.

Accounting for All Revenues – Fees and Rates

Local government funding comes from a multitude of
revenue sources such as taxes, fines,
grants, use of property, user fees, utility rates,
etc. Our Study focuses on the relationship
between fees and rates. As an example, Meter Instal
lation – First Meter (ER-01) in the
following schedule estimates the full costs at $4,4

78. These expenses are offset by current
fee revenues of $3,300, and rate revenues of $1,178
must pay for the remaining. This
subsidy can be eliminated by raising the relevant f
ees. To the extent that the fees are NOT
increased, general gas utility rates paid by all ra
tepayers are the only alternative revenue
source.

Personal Choice versus Community Supported Services

Personal Choice Services are those offered to ident
ifiable customers at a measured level.

They are also services that can be withheld for non
-payment. These services are not
precisely likened to fee-based services to the exte
nt that policy makers may have decided
to subsidize them in full or part. These services
are distinguished from Community
Supported Services that carry an implicit requireme
nt and rationale for setting a level of
subsidization typically based on social, safety or general community welfare.

As the voter initiative most concerned with fee ser
vices, the initiative authors of
Proposition 4 were not concerned with what categori
es of services were being subsidized
as long as subsidy levels set by policy were explicit
decisions made by the authorizing body
with knowledge of full cost information.

Policy Review Information

As the Council conducts its policy review of each o
f the revenue-cost match-ups in the
next chapter, it should refer to comments on the bo
ttom of the service center worksheets
in Appendix B and also in the text in the next chapter to a ssist in that review.

The policy review should assess the tax revenues us
ed to subsidize each service and
address the following options available to the City fo
r each service center:

1. Reduce costs and thereby the tax subsidy by reducin
g the level of service or
restructuring the service to provide it differently.

2. Adjust or institute a fee or charge to recover all of the "c osts reasonably borne".

3. Eliminate a tax subsidy to another "less deserving"
service to utilize the taxes
in order to provide this service.

Effects of Budget Reductions. Across-the-board bud
get reductions during recessionary
times affect fee-supported services as well as tax-
supported services. But, if staffing
reductions cause the service to be provided at a level that is lower than previously, then the
costs have also decreased from that previous level. This mus t result in a lower fee so as not
to be charging more than the costs reasonably borne
. Therefore, the City should be aware
of this result when reviewing possible budget reductions .

Result of Acceptance of Fee Suggestions

If the suggestions in the following Chapter and on
the Service Center Worksheets are
adopted in full then a significant amount of added
revenues will be available to the City,
which would provide ratepayer equity. Most of these
new revenues will be from fee
22 Chapter II – Identifying and Costing Service Centers

increases to replace rate monies used to make up the
difference between fees collected and
costs incurred in providing the services, which wil
l then be available for those services
which can only be funded from rates.

These rate "diversions" are the now-documented rate
subsidies to potentially self-
supporting City services. Thus, additional monies c
ould be made available for other City
services which are not generally conducive to servi
ce charges, thereby achieving much
closer equity between benefits and associated payments.

Policy Guidance. More importantly, the Council wou
ld be able to make its decisions based
on business principles as much as is possible.

Understanding of Equitable Charging for Government. The City Council now has to assist its
constituents to understand that under the California Const itution the intent is:



That rates finance those services for which there i
s no other alternative way to
finance them.


That service charges and special assessments should
be utilized to finance those
things for which benefits can be determined.


That the beneficiaries of such services be charged
in direct relationship to the
benefits derived.

24 CHAPTER IV

SERVICE REVENUE RECOMMENDATIONS

The purpose of this Chapter is to present the servi
ces which RCS has initially labeled as
Personal Choice and to suggest the magnitude of rat
e revenues that could be diverted from
these services to Community Supported Services.

City Council has Final Judgment. It must be unders
tood that considerable judgment--albeit
experienced--was exercised by RCS in suggesting wha
t services were Personal Choice as
opposed to Community Supported Services and in sugg
esting that most Personal Choice
Services should be paid for by the service requesto
r rather than subsidized by the entire
community. However, the final decision on the natur
e of the service and whether it
deserves to be subsidized will have to be made by the City Co uncil.

Service Groups

RCS has organized Energy Resources Department Perso
nal Choice Services into the
following four service groups for purposes of discussion :

Gas Services
Utility Services/Call Center Services
Construction & Pipeline Services
Engineering & Construction Services

These groups, explained in turn, are program orient
ed. Each group includes a table
summarizing the revenues and costs of each service.

The table summarizing the group
tables (Table 5) is found at the end of this Chapter.

Appendix A
, following the text, summarizes the current fees a
nd the proposed fees for
each of the Personal Choice service centers

Service Center details found in
Appendix B
, are in sequence by the Reference Number
(Column 1 on each of the following Tables), include
detail information for each service on
two facing pages. The left page has textual and sum
mary information including RCS’s
suggested service fee. The right page has the service cost de tail.

25 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

General Commentary on Chapter Tables

Each table has eight columns, explained here:

Column 1 is the Report Reference Number.

Column 2 is the title of the service.

Columns 3, 4 & 5 are the same amounts for revenue,
cost and profit (subsidy) found on the
left page of the detail service sheets in Appendix B.

Column 6 is the current percentage of costs recover
ed from the user fees and charges with
the difference being subsidized by taxes.

Column 7 is the percentage of user fee cost recovery which mi ght be obtainable without tax
subsidy. Of course, decisions regarding tax subsidi
es to a service are a City Council policy
decision on how to allocate its tax and general revenues.

Column 8 contains the estimated amount of revenues
which RCS suggests could be raised
or reduced.

32 CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION

Elimination of Subsidies

This Report highlights and recommends that most rat
e subsidies be eliminated as being
unintentional. Service users thus can vote with the
ir dollars and not use a service for which
they are unwilling or unable to pay. Hidden subsidi
es, which have existed for many of the
City’s supposedly self-financed and self-supporting ser vices, can now be re-evaluated.

Issues Involved

The basic issue involved in viewing the results of t
he analysis presented by this text is to what
degree fees should be expected to support the costs of the se rvices.

Or viewed another way, to what extent should utilit
y rates be utilized to subsidize the
difference between the costs of each service center
and the revenue produced from fees paid
by the user of that service'?

Addressing of Issues by City Council

The City Council should address the principles and
issues enumerated herein to determine
where, and to what extent, rates will be utilized t
o cover costs incurred in the provision of
special services.

Specific Policy Alternatives to Be Answered. Once t
he above cost issues are determined then
the City Council has four clear policy alternatives
available as to the revenue/cost mix of each
service center:



Continue any rate subsidy which might be found.


Eliminate the rate subsidy by increasing fees to cover all "costs reasonably borne".


Reduce costs by reducing the level of service.


Decide on an appropriate level of rate subsidy.

Cost Model

As part of this process the City will be receiving
the Costing Model developed and used by
33 City of Long Beach Cost of Services Study

RCS. This will give the City the ability to update
the model itself on an as-needed basis and as
appropriate.

Conclusion

The City has appropriately responded to the mandate
and spirit of Proposition 4. It is utilizing
the passage of Propositions 4, 13, 26, and 218 and
the attention given to them as an
opportunity to review its financial structure and p
hilosophy, and to institute a businesslike
cost control system, tailored to the City's needs,
to supplement its governmental accounting
and budgeting systems.

The cooperation, excellent support and data provide
d in accomplishment of the work
reported herein speaks well of the way in which a C
ity organization can adapt to the so-called
"new realities" of California governmental finance.
