1 DISCUSSION OF FISCAL YEAR 2023 FEE CHANGES
City of Long Beach
September 6, 2022
EXHIBIT B
2 INTRODUCTION
City Council approval is requested for the List of Proposed Fee Adjustments for Fiscal Year 2023 (FY 23) included as Exhibit C, which descri bes the proposed changes to the City’s Master Fees and Charges Schedule. As part of the normal Budget process, City Council last reviewed and approved an amended Master Fees and Charges Schedule for specified City services on May 10, 2022. Fees are required to cover the cost of service except where the City Council finds there is a greater public benefit through 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 full y 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 reven ue or may discourage participation in programs where the participation benefits the overall community.
b. The City Manager will establish a proc ess for an 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 City Council may choose not to adopt a fee with full cost-recovery because it would negatively impact the public good. Cert ain new fees are be ing introduced to a ddress 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 servic e being provided. Changes in the regulatory environment may also result in new fees being developed.
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 mu lti-year effort that started with the Development Services, Health and Human Se rvices (partial), and Parks, Recreation and Marine 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. Th e second round of the study included the Energy Resources and Public Works Departm ents. On February 1, 2022, City staff
EXHIBIT B
3 presented the results of the cost of service studies to the City Council and on May 10, 2022, City Council approved the fee changes. The third round of the study includes the Police, Fire, City Manager, and Health and Human Services Departments, with preliminary results anticipated for Fall 2022.
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 23 Budget Adoption Fee Adjustments, which will take effect October 1, 2022. Please see Exhibit C for the latest List of Propos ed Fee Adjustments. The next citywide fee adjustment process will occur during a Mid-Year Fee Adjustment process during FY 23.
In addition to the List of Proposed Fee Adjustments, user fees and charges in the Master Fees and Charges Schedule have been adjusted by the City Cost Index (CCI). The adjusted fees ar e listed as part of the City’s Master Fees and Charges Schedule included as Exhibit A. The FY 23 CCI, calculated by an independent consultant, is 5.27 percent. By using the CCI to adjust fees for growth, the City is able to sustain previous levels of cost recovery through the ch arging of fees. Without this adjustment, the City would need to increase its subsidy for fee-related services, at the expense of other services. For more information on the City Cost Index, see Exhibit D.
REVENUE 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, as well as any changes to services or operations. The annual revenue changes described in Exhibits C are theoretical estimates and are based on anticipated service usage in FY 23. Annual revenue changes are theoretical and may not result in changes to budgeted revenues by the same amo unt. Changes to budgeted revenues are evaluated holistically as part of the budget process and take into consideration various factors including each department’s curr ent revenue commitments to support its operations, stability of a revenue source, and market or economic conditions. Based on this review, the Proposed FY 23 Budget in cludes revenue adjustments from certain proposed fee changes including towing and marina slip fees.
The proposed FY 23 fee adjustments listed in Exhi bit C are estimated to result in a net revenue increase of $1,747,170 in all funds , with $224,752 in the General Fund Group and $1,522,418 in other funds. The revenue change in other fund groups is comprised of the following estimated increases: $381, 433 in CUPA, $35,920 in Development Services, $675,950 in Tidelands Area, $18,639 in Tidelands Operating, and $410,476 in Towing.
EXHIBIT B
4 PROPOSED FEE CHANGES BY DEPARTMENT
City Clerk
Long Beach City Charter
The City Clerk Department charges a $9.75 fee for each printed copy of the Long Beach City Charter. The fee was established to recoup the printing and paper cost when providing hard copies of the City Charter to the public and other City departments. Since then, the City Charter is now available online and services for printed copies are no longer requested. As a result, the department is requesting to simplify its department fee schedule and delete this fee from the Master Fee and Char ges Schedule. The service and related fee has been unused, as such there is no revenue impact from the proposed fee deletion.
Development Services
Temporary Activating Use (TAU) Permit
On May 19, 2020, the City Council adopt ed an ordinance creating a Temporary Activating Use (TAU) process to allow temporary use of vacant lots by community-based organizations which includes special events as well as temporary retail and service spaces. The Development Services Department has since been recouping service and staff costs associated with TAU applications through its existing Administrative Land Use fee which charges $210 per app lication. Although similar in staff time and work, the Administrative Land Use fee is typically applied when reviewi ng business license applications for certain business types and any special requirements such as distance from schools and hours of operation. As such, to clarify its fee structure and services to customers, the Department is proposing to establish a specific TAU application fee which will continue to charge $210 per application. To mitigate t he impact to applicants, and as is the case with the Administrative Land Use fee, the proposed TAU rate is under the calculated full cost recovery rate of $325 per application as recommended by the Development Services cost of service study. The proposed change is estimated to generate $420 in annual revenue.
Entitlement Conditions of Approval Compliance Review
The Development Services Department manages the planning entitlement process to ensure that proposed uses of land and/or projects are consis tent with the City’s development standards, and land uses are designed and operated in a manner that is compatible with neighboring uses and the community. The Department must review and perform site visits during and following construction to ensure compliance with conditions of approval for planning entitlements. To o ffset the Department’s cost, the Department proposes to establish a new fee, which will charge applicable permittees $178 per staff hour needed for planning staff to per form the necessary review. The rate is set at full cost recovery and aligns with the methodol ogy applied as part of the Development
EXHIBIT B
5 Services cost of service study. The tota l annual revenue from this proposed change is estimated at $35,500 and will vary annually based on volume and complexity of review.
Financial Management
Towing and Auction Fees
The Financial Management D epartment’s Towing Division provides 24/7 towing and impound services to support the Police, Parks, Recreation and Marine, and Public Works Departments. Towing and Au ction Fee increases are proposed in FY 23 to ensure full recovery of increased operating costs which include personnel, technology, insurance, and 3rd party contract tows. The proposed fee increases range from 4 to 6 percent above current rates and will result in higher charges ranging from $1 to $40 per service. The proposed changes are estimated to generate $410,476 in additional annual revenue which has been included as part of the Pro posed FY 23 Budget. The Towing Division continues to actively manage and support indigent payment plans and homelessness waivers to mitigate the impact of towing fees where appropriate.
Fire
CUPA Fees
The Health and Human Services and Fire Departments jointly oversee the Long Beach Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) which was created to consolidate and administer hazardous material permits, ins pections, and enforcement activities. Both departments provide inspection, enforcemen t, and emergency responses services to ensure that hazardous chemicals are handled, stored, and transported in accordance with current state and local standards. The CUPA Fund Gr oup was established by the City to account for revenues and expenses related to these services. In FY 23, the fund group is projecting a structural shortfall. Both departments are currently engaged in departmental cost of service studies which includes CUPA fees in each of their respective departments. CUPA fees have not been adjusted since FY 19 and adjustments in FY 23 are r equested by both departments to a lign fees to preliminary study recommendations to bring fees closer to full cost recovery and partially address the structural shortfall projected in the fund.
The Fire Department is proposing rate incr eases for certain plan checks for special systems, above ground storage tank abandonment, and annual permits for fueling and service stations. While preliminary study findings recommend substantial fee increases to align with the cost of service (in some cases, more than double the current rates), the department proposes to continue to subsid ize these services and phase-in these increases over a two-to three-year period to minimize the initial impact to customers. In addition to fee increases, the Department is proposing multiple fee decreases to align with cost of service study findings across other service areas including plan check fees for underground storage tanks a nd aboveground piping, as well as permit fees related to the Hazardous Materials Disclosure Program. Finally, to align fee schedules with the
EXHIBIT B
6 appropriate department providing the actual services, the Fire Department’s changes also include transferring fire and safety pl an review fees for above ground tank inspections from the Health and Human Services Department. The fee transfer between departmental fee schedules, also include an average six percent increase for inspection of above ground storage tanks up to 100M aggr egate gallons, with a rate restructure from a flat rate to the ac tual full cost for City and outsi de staff costs for above ground storage tanks over 100M aggregate gallons. The total estimated revenue increase from the proposed fee changes is $1 62,533. Upon completion of t he cost of service study, the Fire Department will return to City Council with study findings and, if needed, propose adjustments to these fees based on final recommendations.
Health and Human Services
CUPA Fees
As described in Fire Department’s section above, the Health and Human Services and Fire Departments jointly oversee the Long Beach Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA). Both departments are currently engaged in departmental cost of service studies which includes CUPA fees. CUPA fees have not been adjusted since FY 19 and adjustments in FY 23 are r equested by both departments to a lign fees to preliminary study recommendations more closely align to full cost recovery and partially address the structural shortfall projected in the fund.
The Health and Human Services Department is proposing various changes across its CUPA program including rate increases to annual inspection permits for hazardous waste producers based on business size, reinspection fees, and fees for risk management plan review services based on ri sk level. Like the Fire Department, preliminary cost of service study findings recommend substantial fee increases to align with the cost of service (in some cases, more than double the current rates). As such, the Department proposes to continue to subs idize these services and phase-in these increases over a three-year period to mi nimize the initial im pact to customers.
Additionally, to simplify the fee implement ation and account for any outside services required by the City to support the CUPA program, the department also proposes to restructure its Underground Storage Tank (U ST) removal, remediation, and site mitigation from a flat dollar hourly rate to charging customers the “fully allocated hourly staff rates plus consultant costs”. Finally, to align fee schedules with the appropriate department providing the actual services, the Health and Human Services Department’s changes also include fee deletions to transfer fire and safety plan review fees for above ground storage tanks to the Fire Department. The total estimated revenue increase from the proposed fee changes is $2 18,900. Upon completion of t he cost of service study, the Health and Human Services Department will return to City Council with study findings and, if needed, propose adjustments to these fees based on final recommendations.

7 Library Services
Billie Jean King Main Library Terrace Use
The Library Services Department currently charges rental fees to use meeting rooms in the Billie Jean King Main Library. The Department also makes the Billie Jean King Main Library Terrace available for use with the meeting rooms. Howe ver, with increased demand for rental space from City departments and the public, the Department is also receiving an increase in rental requests spec ific to the library terrace. As such, the Department is proposing to esta blish a new rental fee specif ic to the Billie Jean King Main Library Terrace. The rental fee is proposed at $65 per hour and will align to the same rate charged for meeting room rental at the Billie Jean King Main Library during library hours inclusive of the FY 23 City Cost Index (CCI) adjustment of 5.27 percent to existing Library Services fees. The proposed fee is anticipated to result in an annual revenue increase of $6,240 an d will recoup staff costs associated with making the terrace available for use including planning assistance.
Parks, Recreation and Marine
Marina Slip Fees
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department is proposin g a three percent increase across all permanent and temporary marina slip rental fees and align rates to the Marina Fund Group’s costs for operations, security, debt service, and capital needs. Annual Marina Slip fee increases are necessary to ensure the required debt coverage as required for the repayment of the Marina Revenue Bonds, Series 2015. The purpose of these bonds was to finance improvements to the Alamitos Bay Marina and prepay existing loans to the State Department of Parks and Recreation, Division of Boating and Waterways. Additionally, to ensure that rates for related marina fees are consistent with slip permits, the Department is also proposi ng 3 percent fee increases to lease permit, berth rentals, marina waiting list, visiting vessel, mooring, admin istrative processing, locker rents, parking decal, and small boat st orage fees. The proposed fee increases are estimated to generate $687,000 in additional annual revenue, of which $359,198 has been included as part of the Proposed FY 23 Budget.
Public Seawall Lease Permit Fee
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department currently charges a Public Seawall Lease Permit Fee for private use of public waterways. On August 18, 2020, the City Council approved ongoing, annual rate adjustments to this fee in accordance with the effective Consumer Price Index (CPI). However, with the calculated CPI adjustment over 5 percent in FY 23, the Department is propos ing to increase the permit fee by a lower rate of 3.5 percent fr om $0.58 per square foot to $0.60 per square foot. Using a lower adjustment factor will limit the impact of fee increases to permittees and align the Public
EXHIBIT B
8 Seawall Lease Permit Fee change to other proposed Marina fee changes. The proposed annual revenue increase associated with this change is $4,703.
Other Marina Fees
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department charges various Marina fees for different services including administrative fees for s hore mooring permits, as well as custodial and cleaning service fees. The following fees were reviewed as part of the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department cost of service study completed in FY 21. Based on the methodology applied in the study and updated cost esti mates, the department is proposing the following fee adj ustment to align with cost recovery. The estimated revenue impact of the following proposed changes is $300:

Facility Rental Fees: Beach, Tidelands, and Marine Stadium
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department charges facility use fees for events held at public beaches, parks, and at Marine Stadium. The Department is proposing a three percent increase across various facility use, permit to gather, and marine stadium use fees. The fee adjustments are based on the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department cost of service study completed in FY 21. The proposed rate increase will better align to the cost of service which have increased since study completion in FY 21, in addition to increasing demand for rental s following pandemic-related cl osures. The estimated revenue impact of the proposed increase is $1,500.
Dry Boat Storage
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department currently offers dry boat storage at Marine Stadium and assesses related administr ative fees for stor age space transfer, permit reinstatement, and wait- list. The Department proposes to revise each fee to a consistent rate of $36 per occurrence. The proposed fee increases are based on the Parks, Recreation, and Mari ne Department cost of se rvice study. Since study completion, the Department found that staf fing and related time s pent was relatively consistent across these functions which includes the Marina Agent's time to process and review each application. The estimated revenue impact of the proposed changes is $186.

Bulletin Board & Newsletter Fees
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department charges $32.15 per month to post an 8” x 5” advertisement on the bu lletin boards located at the Alamitos Bay and Shoreline Marinas. The Department also assesses a $135 fee per ad, per issue to post a 1/8th page ad in an issue of the City's bi-monthly newsletter, Marina Reader. The Department proposes to increase the advertisement fee to $45 per month, and increase its newsletter fee to $150 per ad, per issue. Both fees were evaluated as part of the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department’s cost of service study. These adjustments will align these fees closer to full cost recovery updated staff and materials costs needed to post and manage postings and ads. The estimated revenue impact of the proposed change is $300.
Harbor Structure Inspection & Plan Check Fees
The Parks, Recreation and Marine Department charges construction inspection and plan check fees for projects within the City's mari nas. These fees were reviewed as part of the Parks, Recreation, and Ma rine Department cost of service study completed in FY
21. Based on the methodology applied in t he study and updated cost estimates, the Department is proposing the following fee adjustment to align with cost recovery including the Marina Agent's staff time to ins pect structures to ensu re that all projects and improvements meet code requirements. In addition to adjustments to aligning to the cost of service, the proposed adjustments also include a correction to the Harbor Structure Construction Fee for Davits. This fee was erroneously reported at $10.35 per davit. The proposed correction will restructure the rate to $135 and adjust the reported unit of service from per davit to per inspec tion. With these changes, this fee will align more closely with the Harbor Structure Construction Inspection Float and Brow Fee which is similar in scope and cost of servic e. The estimated revenue impact of the following proposed changes is $100:

Towing Fire Fee
The Fire Department currently charges a fee to tow unauthorized vessels. While the Fire Department is responsible for charging and colle cting the fee, it is also listed on the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department f ee schedule due to its application in the City's Marina locations. The proposed adjustment from $175 per tow to $185 per hour is a technical correction to align the fee r eported on the Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department’s fee schedule with the current rate reported on the Fire Department's fee schedule. As this is a technical correction, there is no change to the effective rate assessed to customers or related revenue im pact associated with this proposed item.
Furthermore, to ensure that the fee is consistently reported between the two departments, the proposed change includes clarifying langu age in the published rate that Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department’s fee schedule will be based and adjusted in accordance with the effective rate approved as part of the Fire Department’s fee schedule.
Landing Permit Fee
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Depar tment charges a Landing Permit fee for commercial vessels to conduct business within the harbor or marina such as harbor cruises and moored vessels at landing locations for pickup and drop off. The current fee was $125, plus $1 per foot, plus 5 percent of gross receipt sales. Due to administrative difficulties to collect and verify revenues related to the 5 percent gross receipt sales, the Department is proposing to eliminate the c harge based on 5 percent of gross receipt
EXHIBIT B
11 sales. Rather, the Department proposes to re structure the landing permit fee to $150, plus the cost of the effective Visiti ng Vessel Permit fee. The proposed change is estimated to result in $500 in revenues.
Marina Slip Permit Fee-Permanent End Tie Slip Fee
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department currently charges a fee to permittees to tie a vessel at the end of a dock rather than in a slip. The Department is requesting to correct the rate from 1.1 times the rate of a "wide slip permit" to 1.1 times the rate of a "regular slip permit. This adjustment will correct the fee by referencing the accurate base permit fee associated with Permanent End Tie Slip fee. No revenue change is associated with this change as this correct ion will align the rate to how the fee is currently applied to permittees.
Golf Fees
The Parks, Recreation, and Marine Department charges various fees for golfing at City’s golf courses, with rate adjustments subject to the City’s lease agreement with American Golf Corporation. Per the l ease agreement, fees may be adjus ted at a rate equal to or less than the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Any increases above the CPI are reviewed and approved by the City Manager. All golf rate s, including any adjustments, are reviewed by the Parks, Recreation and Mari ne Department Golf Advisory Committee.
The Department is requesting to remove golf fees from the Master Fees and Charges Schedule as these fees are subject to a separate approval process and only included on the Master Fees and Charge s Schedule for informational purposes. This proposed change will simplify reporting and ensure that there are no inconsistencies in the communication of effective ra tes. Effective rates will c ontinue to be made available publicly updated on the Parks, Recreation, and Marine website. There are no rate adjustments or related revenue impact associated with this proposed item.
Public Works
Administrative Right-of-Way Inspection Fee (Fifth and Subsequent Citation)
The Public Works Department c harges administrative right-o f-way inspection citations for those who fail to comply with the City’s Peak Hour Ordinance by continuing to obstruct and work in the right-of way during peak tra ffic hours. Citation rates increase with the number of violations, with the fifth and each subsequent violation at $2,500 per citation.
At this current rate, compliance continues to be an issue with a number of those cited continuing to violate the Peak Hour Ordinance. To ensure ordinance compliance, the Department is proposing to increase the fi fth and subsequent violat ion from $2,500 to $5,000 per citation. The revenue impact is unknown at this time and will depend on the number of citations issued.

12 Class F Wireless Right-of-Way Facility Permit
The Public Works Department charges a Class F wireless right-of-way facility permit to locate microcells from mobile service providers on public property. As part of FY 22 mid- year fee adjustments and based on the Public Works cost of service study, this fee was increased from $4,470 per permit (for up to t en sites). However, this rate erroneously excluded the cost of inspecti on as part of the reported ra te. To align with the study’s recommendation and fully recoup costs asso ciated with this permit, the Department is proposing to adjust the rate and add language to the rate that specifies “plus estimate of costs of inspection”:

Permit
Engineering Permit Appeal – Public Walkways Occupancy Permit (Applicant and Third Party)
The Public Works Department currently charges a fee to cover the appeal processing of public walkways occupancy permits. The current fee description incorrectly states that the “deposit fee is refunded if the appeal is granted.” There is no associated deposit, as such the Department is requesti ng this technical correction to remove reference to a deposit as part of the Engineering Permit Appeal fee. The proposed change is intended to clarify the Department’s fee schedule and application of this fee. There is no revenue impact or rate adjustment associated with this technical correction.
Micro Mobility Fees
E-Scooter (Micro-Mobility) Program - Violation and Enforcement Penalty Fees
The Public Works Department is proposin g two new penalties charged to e-scooter vendors for geofence violations and failure to share required data with the City.
Geofence technology allows t he City to prescribe rules and identify locations within an area where scooter-use is ei ther prohibited or limited (i.e., no parking and riding, restricted-speed zones, or limited-time parking). E-scooter use in these prohibited areas will result in temporary dis ablement of the scooter’s el ectric motor with an audible notification of the violation to riders. To further ensure that vend ors are compliant with geofence rules, the Department is proposing a new violation fee that will charge vendors $2.00 for each geofence violation. In addition to compliance with geofence rules, vendors are required to share real-t ime device data with the City. This data covers usage and location data per active device and is used by City staff to manage the micro-mobility program. The Department prop oses a Micro-Mobility Non-Compliance Fee for those permittees who fail to share this necessary device data. The City will charge a $1,000
EXHIBIT B
13 per day until the data is provided to the City. While the proposed violation fees are intended to discourage violat ions, based on current data th e new penalty fees are anticipated to generate an estimated $132,066 in new revenue.
Micro-Mobility Device & Trip Fees
On May 14, 2019, the City Council adopted an annual micro-mobility device fee which charged vendors $100 per device to recoup City costs related to the micro-mobility program administration. The Public Works Department is proposing to restructure the micro-mobility device fees and charge vendors based on device usage in the City. The Department proposes to decrease the existing fee of $100 per device to $75 per device and add a new fee for the use of the public right-of-way which will charge vendors $0.20 for each trip taken on each individual device operating in the City. The resulting structure and rates are intended to recoup staffing and vehicle costs associated with the micro- mobility program. The proposed fee structure and rates are aligned with those charged by other comparable jurisdictions includi ng San Diego, San Francisco, and Santa Monica. The revenue change from the proposed fee adjustments is $86,446.
Micro-Mobility Staff Field Inspection Fee
Since program implementation in 2019, the City micro-mobility program continues to expand. With this, there is increased City staf f time related to working with vendors seeking new e-scooter locations. To offset this cost, the Public Works Department is proposing a new Micro-Mobility Staff Field In spection Fee at $75 per inspection which will cover staff time to i dentify new parking and deploym ent locations, as well as implementing and addressi ng geofence issues to ensure that devices operate only in areas approved by the City for e-scooter use. Due to timing, the proposed inspection fee was not included as part of the Department’s recent cost of service study. However, any adjustments to the fee, including cost and service level assumptions will be reviewed as necessary using the cost of service study methodology. The estimated revenue impact from the new fee is unknown at this time and will be based on inspection activity.

City of Long Beach FY 2022 City Cost Index Analysis 1
INTRODUCTION
T
he City of Long Beach utilizes user fees to recover the full cost of services rendered to individuals upon their request.
Fee programs ensure that the City-provided services requested by individuals, primarily provided by twelve departments within the City, are not subsidized through public funds. In order to maintain equivalent cost recovery levels, the City adjusts these fees annually to combat the rise of costs over time. While the Consumer Price Index (the CPI) gives a general indication of the changes in the cost of living, it is not always the primary cost driver for services related to user fees. Since the fees are associated with the provision of a service, the City previously calibrated fees using the average employee salary increase.
Since 2009, the City has utilized an adjustment factor for the user fee program that more accurately accounts for the annual change in both personnel and non-personnel departmental expenses. The City Cost Index (CCI) is a methodology and model created by a former consultant to balance both personnel factors (average salary increases) and non-personnel factors (CPI). Based on FY 2021 and FY 2022 data, the calculated Weighted Adjustment Factor (inflator) for all Public Safety and Non-Public Safety departments is 5.27%.
In FY 2019, the City initiated a 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. Revenue & Cost Specialists (RCS) was selected to conduct the multi-year study. RCS was since requested by the City to review and update the CCI model and make all necessary updates needed to calculate the CCI rate to be applied to the City’s user fees and charges in FY 2023.
PERSONNEL ADJUSTMENT FACTOR
T
able 1, shown on the following page, presents the adjusted budget information primarily for departments for which a fee is charged, number of full-time employees and total departmental budgets adopted for FY 2021 and FY 2022. The Police and Fire Departments have a significant difference in departmental costs increases compared to that of the other City Departments. Therefore, for the purposes of calculating a more accurate index, the Departments have been separated into two groups: Public Safety Departments (Police and Fire) and Non-Safety Departments (remaining Departments). This analysis utilizes the FY 2021 and FY 2022 adopted structural budget figures to provide a reasonable "catch up" adjustment to be applied to FY 2023 user fees.
EXHIBIT D
Table 1
City of Long Beach FY 2022 City Cost Index Analysis 2
Table 1 budgeted data is used to calculate the percentag e increase in budgeted payroll (Personnel Adjustment Factor) over the time periods represented. By taking total budgeted salary and benefits costs and dividing by the number of budgeted full-time equivalent (FTE), salary costs per employee is established. The difference between salary costs per employee in the FY 2021 and FY 2022 adopted budgets can be used as an appropriate gauge of the "catch up" adjustment for personnel cost fluctuations. Table 2, shown on the following page, presents budgeted salary costs per FTE for each department for FY 2021 and FY 2022 and the percent change between the two fiscal years.

NON-PERSONNEL ADJUSTMENT FACTOR
I
n addition to the Personnel Adjustment Factor, the annual CPI for the Los Angeles / Long Beach region is incorporated to account for escalation of general non-personnel expenses, such as materials, supplies and services. The resulting adjustment factors are weighted based on the proportion of personnel expenses to the total departmental budget. Table 3, shown on the following page, presents each department's total budget, exclusive of specific one-time appropriations, and the amounts related to personnel costs and non-personnel costs. The resulting percentages (columns F and G) are multiplied by the Personnel Adjustment Factor and the CPI (columns H and I), respectively. By adding the two new percentages, a weighted adjustment factor is created (column J).
In order to provide a cost index that reflects the causes of cost changes for the Public Safety Departments, the average Unweighted Adjustment Factor (% Change) - Salary computed in Table 2 (5.13%) is multiplied by the average percentage (77.72%) that personnel costs are to the total Public Safety Budget then added to the product of the Unweighted Adjustment Factor - CPI (5.36%) for the determination period multiplied by the average percentage (22.28%) non-personnel costs are relative to the Public Safety Department budget. The result is a Public Safety Department Weighted Cost Adjustment Factor (Index) equal to 5.18% for 2022. In a similar manner, a Weighted Cost Adjustment Factor (Index) is computed for the Non-Safety Departments. The result is a Non- Safety Department Weighted Cost Adjustment Factor (Index) equal to 5.31% for 2022. However, to determine a single Weighted Adjustment Factor (inflator) that balances changes for all Public Safety and Non-Public Safety departments, the formula described above is used resulting in one citywide FY 2022 rate of 5.27% to be applied to user fees and changes.
By factoring both personnel and non-personnel costs, the City is capable to more accurately identify the true increases to the costs to provide citywide services to the public. This allows the City to recover more of the associated increase in costs of service over time. Additionally, the City is in the process of a citywide fee study.
The study is multi-year effort, during which the CCI will continue to be updated and applied to certain services to ensure that user fees and charges appropriately capture general annual cost increases.
