Resolution No. 26-0010 — Manhattan Beach City Council, February 3, 2026 (part 1 of 2)

RESOLUTION NO. 26-0010

A RESOLUTION OF THE MANHATTAN BEACH CITY

COUNCIL APPROVING A DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE

NEXUS STUDY, ADOPTING A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT

PLAN AS PART OF THE NEXUS STUDY , ESTABLISHING
THE FEE AMOUNTS FOR THE CITY’S DEVELOPMENT

IMPACT FEES, AND MAKING FINDINGS OF EXEMPTION

PURSUANT TO CEQA

RECITALS
A. Due to changing patterns of development over recent years and Manhattan Beach’s desire to facilitate and accommodate much needed housing, the type of development in Manhattan Beach has changed, and continues to change. Until recently, the City has not seen the type of large-scale proposed developments that require much greater infrastructure to accommodate projected residents. The collective increase in these future development projects will significantly impact City infrastructure, capital needs and demand on City systems.

B. The Mitigation Fee Act (AB 1600), codified as California Government Code Section 66000 et. seq., authorizes the City to impose Development Impact Fees on new development within the City. Development Impact Fees (DIFs) are one-time charges on new development that are collected and used by the City to pay the costs incurred in connection with increased public infrastructure, capital facilities, vehicles, equipment, and public services that are necessary to serve that new development.

C. The City desires to adopt DIFs on new development to fund the costs associated with increased demand for new public infrastructure, capital facilities, vehicles, equipment, and public services.

D. Proposed Ordinance No. 26-0002, upon adoption , will add Chapter 8.40 (“Development Impact Fees”) to the Manhattan Beach Municipal Code. Chapter 8.40 will establish the imposition of development impact fees on development projects and will provide that the City Council shall, by resolution, adopt a schedule setting forth the specific amount of development impact fees that will be levied on upon new development in the City for each category of fee.

E. Independent consultant Harris and Associates has prepared the Development Impact Fee Nexus Study dated January 2026, attached hereto as Exhibit A (“2026 Nexus Study”) and hereby incorporated by reference.

F. The 2026 Nexus Study identifies: (1) the purpose of the impact fee; (2) the use of the impact fee; (3) the reasonable relationship between the use of the impact fee and the development type on which it is imposed; (4) the reasonable relationship between the need for the facilities and the type of development between the need for the type of 1 of 183

development on which the fee is imposed; and (5) the reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and facility cost attributable to the applicable development project.

In the limited cases where the City has not calculated a fee proportionate to the square footage of the proposed units of development , the 2026 Nexus Study also provides: (1) an explanation as to why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on a housing development project; (2) a n explanation that an alt ernative basis of calculating the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development; and (3) that other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees. The City Council hereby agrees with and incorporates all the findings set forth in the 2026 Nexus Study and adopts them as their own as if set forth in full here.

G. In addition, Appendix A of the 2026 Nexus Study identified capital projects necessary to provide the necessary infrastructure and facilities required to serve new development.

H. The City Council hereby incorporates by reference all of the findings set forth in Ordinance No. 26-0002.

I. The City has complied with the findings requirements and notice and hearing requirements of state law and the Mitigation Fee Act prior to adopting th e 2026 Nexus Study, Capital Improvement Plan and th is Resolution, and a notice of public hearing on the development impact fees was mailed as required by law to any interested party who filed a written request with the City Clerk for mailed notice of a meeting on new or increased fees.

J. The City Council held a duly noticed Study Session on January 13, 2026, to receive public input on the fees.

K. The City Council held a duly noticed hearing at its Regular City Council Meeting held on February 3, 2026, at which time further testimony was presented prior to the close of the public hearing.

L. The City Council hereby finds that the record of these proceedings, including the 2026 Nexus Study and appendices, Ordinance No. 26-0002, the staff report and its attachments , written correspondence received by the City, and the testimony received at the hearing prior to the adoption of this Resolution, contains substantial evidence to support the imposition and collection of the development Impact fees established herein.

M. The City Council has reviewed and considered the development impact fees established herein, and finds that the fees will mitigate some of the impacts associated with additional and increased infrastructure, capital improvements, and City services necessitated by new development in the City.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE MANHATTAN BEACH CITY COUNCIL DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. RECITALS. The findings and recitals set forth in this Resolution are true and correct, and are hereby incorporated herein.

SECTION 2. CEQA. The approval of the 2026 Nexus Study, Capital Improvement Plan associated with the 2026 Nexus Study, and the adoption of the DIFs specified in this Resolution, was reviewed in accordance with the criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and the State CEQA Guidelines. The City Council finds that approval of the 2026 Nexus Study and the adoption of the DIFs specified in this Resolution will not have a significant impact on the environment and are exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of State CEQA Guidelines because these actions involve the adoption of DIFs and no specific development is authorized by the adoption of the 2026 Nexus Study or the adoption of new DIFs. Furthermore, the Capital Improvement Plan is a prioritizing and funding allocation program and cannot and does not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. No physical activity will occur until all required environmental review is conducted at the time the phys ical improvements prioritized in the Capital Improvement Plan are undertaken at a future unspecified date. Therefore, the approval of the 2026 Nexus Study, Capital Improvement Plan associated with the 2026 Nexus Study, and adoption of the DIFs does not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. In addition, the adoption of this Resolution approves and sets forth a procedure for determining fees for the purpose of obtaining funds for capital projects and equipment necessary to maintain service within existing service areas and is statutorily exemp t from CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines 15273(a)(4). Also, approval of the Capital Improvement Plan associated with the 2026 Nexus Study, is exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4) because the Plan is not a “project” as defined by CEQA, but involves the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities that do not involve any commitment to any specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment.

SECTION 3. Approval of the 2026 Nexus Study and Mitigation Fee Act Findings .

The City Council hereby approves the Development Impact Fee Nexus Study prepared by Harris & Associates and dated January 2026, and the findings contained therein . A copy of the 2026 Nexus Study shall be on file with the City Clerk and available during regular City business hours for public inspection.

SECTION 4 . Adoption of a Capital Improvement Plan The City Council hereby adopts the Capital Improvement Plan, attached as Appendix A to the 2026 Nexus Study, as a part of the 2026 Nexus Study.

SECTION 5. Establishing the Amount of Development Impact Fees . The City Council hereby adopts the DIFs for General Government Facilities, Police Facilities, Fire Facilities, Transportation, Storm Drainage, Water, Wastewater (Sew er), and Program Administration, in accordance with the Schedule of Fees, attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated by this reference . The Schedule of Fees contains the DIFs identified Res. 26-0010
3 of 183

above. The City Council is not readopting or revising the existing fees not identified in this Resolution or analyzed in the Nexus Study; all such fees and charges remain in place at the current amount.

SECTION 6 . Adoption of Methodology for Calculation, Annual Adjustment, and Collection of Development Impact Fees . The City Council adopts the methodology set forth in the 2026 Nexus Study, for calculating and collecting the DIFs adopted herein.

The DIFs established in Exhibit B shall be calculated, adjusted, and collected in accordance with Manhattan Beach Municipal Code Chapter 8.40, and the Nexus Study.

Beginning 2027, the amount of the DIFs shall be automatically adjusted annually in July of each calendar year, using the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the Los Angeles Region as reported by Engineering News Record (ENR) for the twelve -month period ending in April or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available.

SECTION 7. Effective Date of DIFs. The development impact fees established by Section 5 of this Resolution shall be effective on the later of: (i) the 60th day following the adoption of this Resolution; or (ii) the effective date of Ordinance No. 26-0002.

SECTION 8. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this resolution and shall cause a certified resolution to be filed in the book of original resolutions.

ADOPTED: February 3, 2026.

City of Manhattan Beach

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTORY

SECTIONS

INTRODUCTION
The City of Manhattan Beach (City) is a coastal city located in southwestern Los Angeles County (County), renowned for its scenic beaches, upscale residential areas, and vibrant downtown. It is one of three cities that make up the South Bay, along with Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach.

The city spans an area of approximately 3.9 square miles. The City was formally incorporated in 1912 and grew from a series of sand dunes into a beachfront community.

The City is part of the Los Angeles , C alifornia Combined Statistical Area. The California Department of Finance (DOF) estimates that as of January 1, 2025, the City population is 34,051, incorporating the 2020 Census benchmark.

As the resident population and non-resident employment in the City increase, there exists a correlating rise in the need for public infrastructure and services to support the increased demand on the City. California’s Assembly Bill 1600 (AB 1600) adopted in 1987 and codified as California Government Code Section 66000 et. seq., allows the City to impose Development Impact Fees on new development within the City. Development Impact Fees (DIFs) are one-time charges on new development that are collected and used by the City to cover the cost of capital facilities, vehicles, and equipment that are required to serve new growth. The City currently has three fees: the Public Art Fee, Residential Unit Fee, and the Quimby/Parkland -In-Lieu Fee . Pursuant to the City’s Municipal Code Chapter 10.90 , every residential development of four or more units, and every commercial and industrial building project with a building valuation exceeding five hundred thousand ($500,000) dollars as determined by the Building Official is required to pay the Public Art Fee. This fee is also imposed upon any remodeling project of existing commercial or industrial buildings and any residential building or complex of four or more units, whether exterior or interior, when the remodeling has a building valuation exceeding t wo hundred fifty thousand ($250,000) dollars as determined by the City’s Building Official. Pursuant to the City’s Municipal Code Chapter 8.36.030, every newly-constructed dwelling unit in the City shall result in a fee of $700.00 per dwelling unit, paid by the person or entity constructing the new dwelling unit.

Pursuant to the City’s Municipal Code Chapter 11.20.100, any proposed subdivision which contains, in whole or in part, the location of a park or recreational facility designated under the Master Park and Recreation Plan element of the City’s General Plan is required either to dedicate parkland or pay a fee in lieu of dedication.

Quimby Fees, the Public Art Fee and Residential Unit Fee are not considered development impact fees under the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Section 66000 et seq.) and therefore are not included as part of this analysis. This study focuses solely on fees that qual ify as impact fees as Res. 26-0010
12 of 183
Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 7 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
defined by the Act. To the City’s knowledge, these other fees have not been updated since they were established.

The City has not experienced significant residential growth since the late 1980s and early 1990s , and development over the past three decades has largely resulted from redevelopment and land use changes . However, as part of the City’s sixth cycle Housing Element, the City was allocated approximately 774 housing units at various income levels as part of the Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA). In order to accommodate additional housing units in a largely built-out City, the City created the Residential Overlay District (ROD) which encompasses 42 acres and creates new residential capacity to accommodate the RHNA as well as providing excess capacity beyond the RHNA for affordable housing. To ensure that public facilities and infrastructure are available to serve the increased residents as a result of the anticipated future development, the City is seeking to adopt a comprehensive impact fee program.

The goal of this update is to assess the current fees and potential DIFs on new development to assist in mitigating City -wide impacts on public improvements, public services, and community amenities and to ensure compliance with the legal requirements of AB 1600 and AB 602.

NEXUS REQUIREMENT SUMMARY
AB 1600 was enacted by the State of California in 1987 creating the Mitigation Fee Act - Section 66000 et seq. of the Government Code. The Mitigation Fee Act requires that all public agencies satisfy the following requirements when establishing, increasing, or imposing a fee as a condition of approval of a development project:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee.

2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is financing public facilities, the facilities shall be identified.

3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee ’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that all fee components comply with the Mitigation Fee Act. The assumptions, methodologies, facility standards, costs, and cost allocation factors that were used to establish the nexus between the fees and the development on which the fees will be charged are summarized in subsequent sections of this report.

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 8 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
In evaluating the City’s development impact fee program, it is important to distinguish between revenues available to fund services for the existing population and those that may be used to serve new development. As future residents and workers occupy new development projects, they become part of the City’s existing community and begin generating General Fund revenues through property taxes, sales taxes, and other locally collected revenues. These unrestricted General Fund revenues may be used for any lawful municipal purpose citywide, including ongoing operations, maintenance of public facilities, and general governmental services. In contrast, development impact fee revenues are legally restricted and may only be used to construct or expand public facilities needed to accommodate new development. State law also requires the City to track and report the use of these impact fees annually under AB 1600, ensuring that all expenditures are directly tied to growth -related facility needs. This distinction between unrestricted General Fund revenues and restricted impact fee revenues is a core component of the City’s nexus analysis and fee methodology.

ASSEMBLY BILL 602
AB 602, enacted by the State of California in 2021, amended Sections 65940.1 and 66019 of, and added Section 66016.5 to the Government Code. AB 602 requires that if a local agency conducts and adopts an impact fee nexus study after January 1, 2022, the local agency shall follow all of the following standards and practices:

1. Before the adoption of an associated development fee, an impact fee nexus study shall be adopted.

2. When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.

3. A nexus study shall include information that supports the local agency’s actions, as required by subdivision (a) of Section 66001 of the Government Code.

4. If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local agency shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of fees collected under the original fee.

5. A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee proportionately to the square footage of the proposed units of the development shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. A nexus study is not required to comply with the requirements to calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionally to the square footage of the proposed units if the local agency makes the following findings:

Res. 26-0010
14 of 183
Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 9 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
• An explanation as to why square footage is not appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on housing development project.
• An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. • That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

6. Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.

7. All studies shall be adopted at a public hearing with at least 30 days’ notice, and the local agency shall notify any member of the public that requests notice of intent to begin an impact fee nexus study of the date of the hearing.

8. Studies shall be updated at least every eight years, beginning on January 1, 2022.

9. The local agency may use the impact fee nexus study template developed by the Department of Housing and Community Development pursuant to Section 50466.5 of the Health and Safety Code.

This report demonstrate s that all fee components comply with AB 602 . The methodologies performed to calculate the updated fees ensure that the costs for facilities are proportionately spread between existing and future users.

NEXUS STUDY SUMMARY
Purpose
As development occurs in the City, new backbone infrastructure and capital facilities are required to mitigate the increased demand created by new residents and workers. DIFs fund this required backbone infrastructure and capital facilities as well as the related administrative costs through the City’s fee program. The fee program contains separate fee categories for each type of infrastructure and capital facilities. Incorporated in this Nexus Study are the following fees:
• General Government Facilities
• Police Facilities
• Fire Facilities
• Transportation
• Storm Drainage
• Water
• Sewer
• Administration
This includes eight proposed new fees: General Government Facilities, Police Facilities, Fire Facilities, Transportation, Storm Drainage, Water, Sewer , and Program Administration. This report is designed to satisfy AB 1600 Nexus requirements, AB 602 guidance, and provide the necessary technical analysis to support the adoption of the updated fees.

Fee Summary
Pursuant to AB 602, residential development fees are to be assessed on a per square foot basis with the exception of Water Fees which are collected on a per meter basis and Storm Drainage fees which will be assessed on a per acre basis . To yield consistency across fees assessed on non - residential land uses, non-residential development fees will be assessed per 1,000 building square feet with the exception of Water Fees which are collected on a per meter basis and Storm Drainage fees which will be assessed on a per acre basis . Fees on Accessory Dwelling Units, specialized projects, and rebuild projects are detailed further in Section 11: Implementation and Administration.

While AB 602 suggests that residential development fees be assessed on a per square foot basis, it has been determined that assessing residential fees on a per acre (AC) basis for the Storm Drainage fee and the Water fee on a per unit for single family residential and a per meter basis for multi - family residential ties more directly to the impacts of new developments and results in a more equitable fee across all residential land uses. This is described in more detail in Section 2.

Section 1 METHODOLOGY

METHODOLOGY
Imposed fees require various findings to ensure that a reasonable relationship exists between the fee amount and the cost of the facility or portion of the facility attributable to new development.

Several methodologies are available to determine fee amounts. The most common methodologies are defined by the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley.

Choosing the appropriate methodology depends on the type of facility for which the fee is calculated and the availability of documentation to support the fee calculation. The following is a discussion of the methodologies available to calculate the separate fee components in this report.

Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory method , also known as the “incremental method” uses a facility standard based on an analysis of the ratio of existing facilities to the demand on the facilities by the existing population serviced by those facilities (“existing service population”) on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the current facility standards serving current residents. In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards, new development is only required to fund the expansion of facilities at the currently provided standard, and the deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the fee program. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.

Planned Facilities Method
The planned facilities method calculates the proposed fee based on the ratio of planned facilities to the increase in demand associated with new development. This method is appropriate when planned facilities have been define d by a long-range master plan or expenditure plan which includes specific facilities and cost estimates. As the Planned Facilities Method relies on a long- range master plan that may change as the plan is implemented, fees based on this methodology need to be regularly updated to remain consistent with the project lists and current plans.

System Plan Method
The system plan method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area. This method is appropriate when calculating a systemwide fee in which new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development. By spreading the costs Res. 26-0010
22 of 183
Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 17 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
of an integrated system incorporating the existing facilities and planned facilities costs to the total development in the study area, this ensures that new development only pays their proportional share of the total system costs and is not responsible for rectifying any existing deficiencies.

MARK-UPS
A soft cost mark-up of 35% is added to the estimated construction cost for planned facilities and improvements for Storm Drainage, Water, and Sewer to account for items such as design, fees, permits, construction management, insurance, and other indirect costs. This mark-up is consistent with the mark-up included in the City’s Storm Drainage Master Plan (2021), Water Master Plan (2021), and Wastewater Master Plan (2010).

PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
The City, with assistance from consultants, oversees the implementation and administration of the City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fee Program, consistent with the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act. For all City Impact fees, a Program Administration Fee of five percent (5%) is added to fund the costs of City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program. Industry standard ra nges from three to six percent (3-6%) for the administrative component of a development fee program based on research completed by Best, Best & Krieger and presented at the California Society of Municipal Finance Officers Chapter meeting in October of 2025.

For ease of administration, this report creates a separate Program Administration Fee that will be collected in a separate fund. Additional information regarding the Program Administration Fee is presented in Section 9. The administrative functions of the Program Administration Fee include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Annual fee adjustments
• Annual fee reporting
• Additional fee reporting every five years
• Application and tracking of fee credits and reimbursements • Posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on the City’s website • Periodic nexus study updates
• Staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking, and administration AB 602 AND FEE COLLECTION ALTERNATIVES
As stated in the previous section for AB 602, a nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development, unless the agency is able to make three additional findings.

The proposed Storm Drainage fee is proposed to be charged on a per acre basis. The following section discusses why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees imposed on residential housing projects for the storm drainage fees:
• An explanation as to why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate storm drainage fees imposed on housing development project. Storm drainage fees should be assessed based on the increase in impervious surface area, as this directly correlates with stormwater runoff. Square footage is not an appropriate metric because multi-story structures with identical footprints do not increase runoff proportionally to their total floor area. Fees that are calculated based on the estimated impervious surface, more accurately account for storm drainage impacts. Higher -density developments typically generate more impervious coverage per acre than lower-density developments, and the fee structure reflects this variation. Using impervious area as the basis for storm drainage fees ensures a hydraulically relevant and equitable assessment of storm drainage impacts. • An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the storm drainage fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. The proposed storm drainage fees are charged on a per acre basis. The fees vary based on the impervious area each land use is expected to generate based on the per acre impervious factors included in the Storm Drai nage Master Plan. Because the fee is based on the additional impervious acres generated by each land use, this methodology provides a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee charged and the burden posed by each development.
• That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees. The storm drainage fees are structured across various residential land use categories and reflect the relationship between density and impervious area. Higher-density developments typically have more units per acre with smaller unit sizes. Charging fees by acre results in a lower cost per -unit for larger, detached single family residential units which ali gns with the expected stormwater generation. The fee calculation is based on the estimated impervious acreage associated with each land use category, ensuring that the fees are proportional to the impacts created by the project. By utilizing an impervious acreage methodology for determining the fee, smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

The following section discusses why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees imposed on residential housing projects for the water fees:

As stated in the previous section for AB602, A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development, unless the agency is able to m ake three additional findings.

The proposed water fees will be charged on a fee per meter basis. The following section discusses why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees imposed on residential housing projects for the water fees:
• An explanation as to why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate water fees imposed on housing development project. Water fees should be assessed based on the increase in water demand generated by each new residential unit. Square footage is not an appropriate metric because residential units do not proportionally increase water demand with increases in square footage. For example, if a kitchen is 200 square feet larger in one single family home than the adjacent single -family home, the add itional square footage does not necessarily increase the water demand of the home. Collecting a water fee based on meter size ensures that the fees paid are proportional to the water demand of that unit. Higher-density developments typically generate more water demand per acre than lower-density developments, and as a result will require larger water meters to accommodate the water demand of the development. Collecting a fee based on meter size reflects this variation. Using meter size as the basis for wate r fees ensures a hydraulically relevant and equitable assessment of water impacts. • An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the water fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. The water fees are charged on a meter size basis with one category for single family units and ten fee categories for non-residential development based on the necessary hydraulic capacity in order to meet the water demands of the development project. The fees vary based on the water demand each development project is expected to generate based on the water demand factors included in the City’s Water Master Plan. Because the fee is based on the additional water demand generated by each land use, this methodology provides a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee charged and the bur den posed by each development.
• That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees. The water fees are structured across meter size categories and reflect the relationship between density and water demand. Higher -density developments typically have more units per acre with smaller unit sizes served by a common water meter that are often subsequently sub metered.

Charging fees based on meter size results in a lower cost per unit than larg er, detached single family residential units which aligns with the expected water demand of each unit.

The fee calculation is based on the estimated water demand associated with each meter size, ensuring that the fees are proportional to the impacts create d by the project. By utilizing a meter size methodology for determining the fee, smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

Section 2 POPULATION AND LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS

LAND USE TYPES
To ensure a reasonable relationship between each fee and the type of development paying the fee, different land use types must be distinguished. The land use categories used in this analysis are defined below. These land use definitions may differ from those in the Manhattan Beach Municipal Code.
• Single Family: Single-family dwelling units located on a single lot. Includes very low density, low density and manufactured homes.
• Multi-Family: Two or more dwelling units on a site including manufactured homes. • Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) : A second unit, attached or detached as described under Government Code Sections 66310–66342.
• Commercial: All commercial, retail, educational, and mixed-use development. • Office: All general, professional, and medical office development. • Industrial: All research and development, manufacturing and warehouse development.

Some developments may include more than one land use type, such as an industrial warehouse with living quarters (a live -work designation) or a mixed-use development with both Retail and Residential land uses. In these cases, the fees will be calculated separately for each land use type.

GROWTH FORECASTS
Growth projections are used as indicators of demand. The City’s existing population, as well as the City’s Community Development Department’s population projections, are critical assumptions used throughout the fee sections that follow in this report. The following resources were used as part of this analysis:
• Estimates of population projections and new development through buildout were based on the City’s certified 6th Cycle Housing Element and subsequently updated with projected estimates developed by the City of Manhattan Beach Community Development Department. As the City is mostly built out, the City does not anticipate significant future non-residential development.

This study assumes that Commercial land use will experience two percent (2%) growth from existing conditions, Office land use will experience five percent (5%) growth from existing conditions, and that there will not be any additional future Industrial development. • Estimated persons per household data were based on the 2023 U.S. Census American Community Survey.
• Existing population estimates are from the 2025 E-5 Population and Housing Estimates for Cities, Counties and the State published by the California Department of Finance.

• Worker projections are based on projected non-residential square footage and the employees per square feet assumptions from the USGBC LEED BD+C: New Construction | v4 – Default Occupancy Counts.

Table 2-1: Projected New Unit and Acreage Growth (2040 Projections)

RESIDENT AND EMPLOYMENT DENSITY
Using persons per household (PPH) data for residential units and employment density data for non-residential buildings is a common metric used to establish a reasonable relationship between the demand created by the development project and the fees charged . The residential density factors were derived using information from the U.S. Census American Community Survey (2023) and the non-residential employment density factors were derived from the U.S. Green Building Council Default Occupancy Counts. The following average density factors are used for each land use type.

AVERAGE UNIT SIZES
To meet AB 602 requirement five (5) , where applicable, that advises that a fee imposed on a housing development project shall be calculated proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development in order to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development, this Nexus Study calculates a fee per unit and then uses the average unit size for Single-Family Residential and Multi-Family Residential based on the estimated average size of planned new development within each land use category to convert to a fee per square foot. The average unit size is based on the livable square footage of the residential units.

Basing the average unit size on livable square footage for all residential units is not only consistent with the industry standard for fee calculations, but it also provides a strong nexus between the impact of the unit and the fee amount. A good example of industry standards are school fees in California.

Throughout California and specifically in the Manhattan Beach Unified School District, school fees are based on assessable space, which means a quantity equal to the area (expressed in square feet) within the perimeter of a residential structure, not including the carport, communal walkway, garage, overhang, patio, enclosed patio, detached accessory structure or similar structure.

Multi-Family Residential projects that include communal spaces (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees on such areas as the impact is considered to be captured within the residential fees. Areas that contain employees and are accessible by the public will be charged impact fees according to use (i.e., leasing office would pay office fees).

Based on the average size of planned new development within each land use category for the City based on an analysis of the City’s building permit s issues within the last year as summarized in Appendix B, the following average unit sizes are utilized in this study.

Single-Family Residential…………………...4,294 Square Feet Per Unit Multi-Family Residential...…….………………967 Square Feet Per Unit The City will monitor the average size of new housing units on an annual basis and if the average size of units is significantly less than anticipated, the fees will be updated as part of the annual update to reflect this change in order to ensure the fee program does not fall short.

As detailed in the next sections, the fee per square foot is calculated by dividing the fee per unit by the average size shown above for each residential unit type. Fees for Multi-Family Residential result in a higher fee per square foot than Single Family Residential due to the higher density of people per square foot of space.

Res. 26-0010
34 of 183
Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 29 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
The methodology for calculating the fees per unit results in a higher fee per square foot for Multi- Family Residential. The need for the facilities included in this Nexus Study s are based on the number of people that these facilities must serve. Therefore, utilizing the average number of residents that resides in any density type based on census tract data is the most justified methodology for the fee. This relates the persons per ho usehold for Single and Multi -Family residential to the average size of th e unit, which results in the fee per square foot. While Multi - Family residential has a lower persons per dwelling unit assumption, the proportion of persons per unit to the size of the unit is higher than Single Family. This results in a fee that is based on the demand of those residents, which is slightly higher per square foot for Multi-Family. Because the impact of each unit is based on the additional people generated by unit type, this methodology provides a reasonable relationship and rough proportiona lity between the amount of the fee charged and the burden posed by each residential unit. Moreover, because most Multi-Family units are smaller than Single Family units, the fee paid per dwelling unit will likely be lower for the vast majority of Multi-Family units than Single Family units.

Section 3 GENERAL GOVERNMENT FACILITIES FEE

BACKGROUND
This section presents an analysis of the General Government Facilities Fee . The General Government Facilities Fee covers the costs to mitigate the effects of new development on the City’s general government facilities including administrative functions and the public works department. While the City does not currently collect a General Government Facilities Fee, a fee is being proposed to ensure that new development pays its fair share to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The General Government Facilities Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method. The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per capita basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development.

By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the current facility standards serving current residents. In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards, new development is only required to fund the expansion of facilities at the currently provided standard, and any current deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the impact fee program. Furthermore, per the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, when using the Existing Inventory Method, no existing deficiencies are assumed because the impact fee associated with this method funds the expansion of facilities at the existing service level. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.

New development will pay the General Government Facilities Fees at building permit issuance , unless otherwise required by law, to maintain the existing level of service provided to the City’s existing service population.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities is based on the City’s future service population, which includes residents and workers. In calculating the service population for new growth, workers are weighted less than residents to reflect a lower service demand. Workers are weighted at approximately 37% that of a resident based on the fact that workers can take advantage of the City’s General Government Facilities approximately 45 hours a week relative to a resident’s time of 123 hours (168 hours per w eek less 45 work hours) . The discount factor reflects the fact that employees typically generate less service demand than residents because they are present in the community for a limited portion of the day. The calculation of the City’s existing service population as it relates to General Government Facilities is shown in Table 2-2.

AB 602 through the addition of Section 66016.5(a)(2) of the Government code states, “When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
The General Government Facilities Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method. This methodology establishes the City’s existing level of service through an evaluation of current facility valuation to provide civic services. The analysis and calculations detailed throughout this section provide the basis for identifying and describing the existing level of service.

As of Fiscal Year 2024 -2025, the City of Manhattan Beach is providing General Government Facilities utilized to provide civic services at an approximate valuation of $1,587.23 per capita for residents and $587.27 per capita for workers. The City’s existing level of service in terms of facility valuation per capita is sown in Table 3-2.

Maintaining the established level of service is appropriate because:
• It ensures new development contributes its proportional fair share of the increased facility requirements necessary to serve future development.
• It maintains the existing facility valuation per capita provided to existing development. • If new development did not provide funding to maintain the existing level of service, the level of service would decrease citywide and negatively impact both existing and future development.

FEE METHODOLOGY
The General Government Facilities Fee uses the Existing Inventory Method methodology for calculating the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the Res. 26-0010

California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, with the Existing Inventory Method “New development will fund the expansion of facilities at the same standard as currently used to service e xisting development.” The fees are based on the general government facilities needed to maintain the existing level of service. As new development increases demand for civic services, the General Government Facilities fee funds capital improvements that en sure City facilities, systems, and equipment remain functional, accessible, and capable of supporting the continued delivery of general government services to residents and workers, consistent with applicable code, safety, and operational standards.

Based on the City of Manhattan Beach Property Listing which is compiled by a third-party auditor and provided by the City of Manhattan Beach Finance Department which details the insured replacement valuation for the City’s assets , the total value of general government facilities provided to the City’s existing service population is approximately $ 65.7 million. Table 3-1 summarizes the existing General Government Facilities inventory that forms the basis of the existing level of service calculation as these are the facilities and equipment to serve the City’s current residents and workers . Vehicles and equipment that have exceeded their useful life expectancy have been removed from the analysis.

City of Manhattan Beach
Table 3-2 calculates the existing level of service for General Government Facilities on a per-capita basis by dividing the total replacement value of all existing General Government Facilities by the City’s current service population, which includes both residents a nd workers. This existing level of service per capita represents the cost required to provide facility space, vehicles, equipment, and supporting infrastructure necessary to maintain the existing level of service, which is approximately $1,587.23 per resident and $587.27 per worker.

This analysis establishes the benchmark for the City’s existing level of service and is used to proportionally determine each new development’s fair share of the cost for future general government facility improvements. By applying this per -capita cost to the additional service population generated by new development, the City ensures that growth contributes equitably to maintaining the same level of service as provided to existing residents and workers. Utilizing this calculation methodology ensures that if any existing deficiencies are present, they are not allocated to future development because new development is only funding expanded facilities at the same valuation per capita the City currently provides to the existing service population . Any existing deficiency that exists must be rectified by funding outside of the fee program.

FEE SUMMARY
The General Government Facilities Fee per unit and per 1,000 square feet is calculated by multiplying the cost per resident or worker by the average number of residents or worker per unit type (density). The General Government Facilities fee per unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot for each residential unit type. This calculation is shown in Table 3-3.

Table 3-3: General Government Facilities Fees

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS & REVENUE PROJECTIONS
Table 3-4 summarizes the potential General Government Facilities fee revenue from the projected future development identified in Table 2-1. The revenue collected from the General Government Facilities Fee will be available to expand the City’s General Government Facilities Fees facilities to meet the needs of new residents and workers in the City.

consistent with applicable code, safety, and operational standards. In order to accommodate these needs, the improvements identified in Table 3-5 will be constructed.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The fee s will be used to fund the construction of new general government facilities and improvements as summarized in Table 3-5. These projects were identified by the City as facilities which will mitigate the impact of new development in the City by constructing additional general government facilities or reconfiguring poorly used space to generate additional functional space.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The General Government Facilities Fees will be used to fund general government facilities projects consisting of new administration and public works facilities necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City as shown in Table 3-5. The General Government Facilities Fees are calculated based on the level of service of the existing general government facilities provided to the City’s existing service population. Workers are weighted at a lower weight than residents to reflect their lesser impact on the facilities. This weighting is calculated as resident equivalents and is used to calculate a cost per capita to maintain the existing level of service as shown in Table 3-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the persons per household and employment density assumptions as defined in Section 2 ensuring a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project as shown in Table 3-3.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate either new residents or workers. The addition of these new residents and workers directly creates the need for additional general government facilities for administration and public works facilities, which are necessary in order to maintain the existing level of service. The fees are based on the number of resident equivalents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facility is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident and thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 times that of a resident based on the accessibility of general government facilities in relation to a resident. The relationship between the need for the facility and the type of development project is shown in Table 3-3.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The General Government Facilities Fees will provide funding for maintaining the existing level of service of the City’s general government facilities for administration and public works facilities.

These City’s existing facilities and costs are summarized in Table 3-1. The cost per capita is derived by dividing the existing facilities based on the existing service population in the City as shown in Table 3-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the number of new residents or workers that the land use will generate as shown in Table 3-3.

Allocating fees based on the number of new residents or work ers that the land use will generate , ensures each new development is only paying for their fair share of the required facilities since the need for the facilities directly correlates to the addition of new residents and worker equivalents.

The required facilities, capital expansion, vehicles and equipment to maintain the existing level of service and accommodate the 4,600 additional residents and workers are shown in Table 3-5.

Improvements such as the renovations to City Hall , modernization and electrical upgrades are classified as optimization of existing City facilities and are necessary to ensure City facilities, systems, and equipment remain functional, accessible, and capable of supporting the continued delivery of general government services to residents and workers, consistent with applicable code, safety, and operational standards. Projects such as the City Yard expansion are directly expanding the square footage of facil ities to accommodate the additional vehicles and equipment necessary to continually provide the same level of service as development occurs.

New development is projected to fund approximately $7.6 million of the total $18.5 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 10 % of the buildout service population, the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately 9% of total buildout general government facilities valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth . The remaining $10.9 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions and grants as shown in Table 3-6.

Section 4 POLICE FACILITIES FEE

BACKGROUND
This section presents an analysis of the Police Facilities Fee. The Police Facilities Fees cover the cost to mitigate the effects of new development on the City’s police facilities. While the City does not currently collect a Police Fee, a fee is being proposed to ensure that new development pays its fair share of the City’s Police Facilities so that the level of service provided to existing development is not reduced by new development. The Police Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method. The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per capita basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development.

By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the current facility standards serving current residents. In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards, new development is only required to fund the expansion of facilities at the currently provided standard, and any existing deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the impact fee program. Furthermore, per the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, when using the existing inventory method, no existing deficiencies are assumed because the impact fee associated with this method funds the expansion of facilities at the existing service level. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.

New development within the City will pay the Police Facilities Fees at building permit issuance, unless otherwise required by law, to maintain the level of service provided to the City’s existing residents.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities is based on the City’s future service population, which includes residents and workers. In calculating the service population for new growth, workers are weighted less than residents to reflect a lower service demand. Workers are weighted at approximately 37% that of a resident based the fact that workers can take advantage of the City’s Police Facilities approximately 45 hours a week relative to a resident’s time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours). The discount factor reflects the fact that employees typically generate less service demand than residents because they are present in the community for a limited portion of the day. The calculation of the City’s existing service population as it relates to Police Facilities is shown in Table 2-2.

EXISTING LEVEL OF SERVICE
AB 602 through the addition of Section 66016.5(a)(2) of the Government code states , “When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
The Police Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method. This methodology establishes the City’s existing level of service through an evaluation of current facility valuation to provide police services. The analysis and calculations detailed throughout this section provide the basis for identifying and describing the existing level of service.

As of Fiscal Year 2024-2025, the City of Manhattan Beach is providing Police Facilities utilized to provide police services at an approximate police facility valuation of $813.10 per capita for residents and $300.85 per capita valuation for workers across the police administration, patrol and traffic safety operations. The City’s existing level of service in terms of facility valuation per capita is calculated in Table 4-2.

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Police Facilities Fee uses the Existing Inventory Method methodology for calculating the fee.

As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, with the Existing Inventory Method “New development will fund the expansion of facilities at the same standard as currently used to service existing development.” The fees are based on the police facilities, equipment and systems r equired to maintain the existing level of service . As new development increases demand for police services, the Police Facilities Fee funds capital improvements that ensure police facilities, vehicles, technology, and equipment remain functional, reliable, and capable of supporting the continued delivery of law enforcement services to residents and workers, consistent with applicable safety, operational, and performance standards.

Based on the City of Manhattan Beach Property Listing, which is compiled by a third-party auditor and provided by the City of Manhattan Beach Finance Department , which details the insured replacement valuation for the City’s assets, the total value of police facilities provided to the City’s existing service population is approximately $ 33.6 million. Table 4-1 summarizes the existing Police Facilities Inventory that forms the basis of the existing level of service calculation. Vehicles and equipment that have exceeded their useful life expectancy have been removed from the analysis.

Table 4-2 calculates the existing level of service for Police Facilities on a per -capita basis by dividing the total replacement value of all existing Police Facilities by the City’s current service population, which includes both residents and workers. This existin g level of service per capita figure represents the cost required to provide facility space, vehicles, equipment, and supporting infrastructure necessary to maintain the existing level of service, which is approximately $813.10 per capita for residents and $300.85 per capita valuation for workers.

This analysis establishes the benchmark for the City’s existing level of service and is used to proportionally determine each new development’s fair share of the cost for future police facility improvements. By applying this per-capita cost to the additional service population generated by new development, the City ensures that growth contributes equitably to maintaining the same level of service as provided to existing residents and workers. Utilizing this calculation methodology ensures that if any existi ng deficiencies are present, they are not allocated to future development because new development is only funding expanded facilities at the same valuation per capita the City currently provides to the existing service population. Any existing deficiency that exists must be rectified by funding outside of the impact fee program.

Table 4-2: Police Facilities Cost per Capita

FEE SUMMARY
The Police Facilities Fee per unit is calculated by multiplying the cost per resident or worker by the average number of residents or worker per unit type (density). The Police Facilities fee per residential unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot for each residential unit type. The Description Value

standards. In order to accommodate these needs, new facilities will be built, or existing facilities will be expanded as shown within Table 4-5.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The fees will be used to fund or partially fund the Police Facilities summarized in Table 4-5. The fee will be used to fund new police facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New development generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for police facilities.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Police Facilities Fees will be used to fund or partially fund the expansion of the City’s Police Department as shown in Table 4-5. The Police Facilities Fees are calculated based on the current level of service of the existing police facilities provided to the existing service population. Workers are weighted at a lower weight than residents to reflect their lesser impact on the facilities. This weighting is calculated as resident equivalents and is used to calculate a cost per capita to maintain the existing level of service as shown in Table 4-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the persons per household and employment density assumptions as defined in Table 2-3, ensuring a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project as shown in Table 4-3.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate either new residents or workers. The addition of these new residents and workers directly creates the need for additional police facilities, which are necessary in order to maintain the existing level of service. The fees are based on the number of resident equivalents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facility is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident and thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 times that of a resident based on the accessibility of police facilities in relation to a resident . The relationship between the need for the facility and the type of development project is shown in Table 4-3.

The Police Facilities Fees will provide funding for maintaining the existing level of service of the City’s police facilities. These City’s existing facilities and costs are summarized in Table 4-1. The cost per capita is derived by dividing the existing facilities based on the existing service population Res. 26-0010

in the City as shown in Table 4-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the number of new residents or workers that the land use will generate as shown in Table 4-3.

Allocating fees based on the number of new residents or workers that the land use will generate , ensures each new development is only paying for their fair share of the required facilities since the need for the facilities directly correlates to the addition of new residents and worker equivalents.

The required facilities, capital expansion, vehicles and equipment to maintain the existing level of service to provide police services to the additional 4,600 residents and workers are shown in Table 4-5. Improvements such as the drone as first responder , new public safety radios and system are classified as optimization of existing services and are necessary as the service population continues to grow and densify because the probability of simultaneous incidents requiring police response increases and the addition and expansion of these facilities mitigates the increased operational loads associated with serving a larger population. Projects such as the Police Substation/Training Facility, real time crime center and acquisition of a new mobile command center and crime negotiation vehicles are directly expanding the square footage of facilities or capabilities of the City’s police department.

New development is projected to fund approximately $ 3.9 million of the total $ 25.4 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 10% of the buildout service population, the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately 6.6% of total buildout police facilities valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth. The remaining $ 21.5 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions and grants as shown in Table 4-6.

Section 5 FIRE FACILITIES FEE

BACKGROUND
This section presents an analysis of the Fire Facilities Fee. The Fire Facilities Fees cover the cost to mitigate the effects of new development on the City’s fire facilities. While the City does not currently collect a Fire Fee, a fee is being proposed to ensure that new development pays its fair share of the City’s Fire Facilities so that the level of service provided to existing development is not reduced by new development. The Fire Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method.

The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per capita basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development.

Furthermore, per the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, when using the existing inventory method, no existing deficiencies are assumed because the impact fee associated with this method funds the expansion of facilities at the existing service level. This method is often used when a long -range plan for new facilities is not available. New development within the City will pay the Fire Facilities Fees at building permit issuance , unless otherwise required by law, to maintain the level of service provided to the City’s existing residents.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities is based on the City’s future service population, which includes residents and workers. In calculating the service population for new growth, workers are weighted less than residents to reflect a lower service demand. Workers are weighted at approximately 37% that of a resident based the fact that workers can take advantage of the City’s Fire Facilities approximately 45 hours a week relative to a resident’s time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours). The discount factor reflects the fact that employees typically generate less service demand than residents because they are present in the community for a limited portion of the day. The calculation of the City’s existing service population as it relates to Fire Facilities is shown in Table 2-2.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
The Fire Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Method. This methodology establishes the City’s existing level of service through an evaluation of current facility valuation to provide fire services. The analysis and calculations detailed throughout this section provide the basis for identifying and describing the existing level of service.

As of Fiscal Year 2024-2025, the City of Manhattan Beach is providing Fire Facilities utilized to provide fire administration, operations, community risk reduction, emergency medical services and support services at an approximate valuation of $747.21 per capita for residents, and $276.47 per capita for workers. The City’s existing level of service is calculated in terms of facility valuation per capita is calculated in Table 5-2.

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Fire Facilities Fee uses the Existing Inventory Method methodology for calculating the fee.

As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, with the Existing Inventory Method “New development will fund the expansion of facilities at the same standard as currently used to service existing development.” The fees are based on the fire facilities, vehicles, and equipment required to maintain the existing level of service . As new development increases demand for fire suppression, rescue, and emergency response services, the Fire Facilities Fee funds capital improvements that ensure fire facilities, apparatus, and specialized equipment remain functional, properly equipped, an d capable of supporting the continued provision of fire and life safety services to residents and workers, consistent with applicable safety, operational, and training standards. provided to the City’s current residents and workers.

Based on the City of Manhattan Beach Property Listing, which is compiled by a third-party auditor and provided by the City of Manhattan Beach Finance Department , which details the insured replacement valuation for the City’s assets , the total value of fire facilities provided to the City’s existing service population is approximately $ 30.0 million. Table 5-1 summarizes the existing Fire Facilities Inventory that forms the basis of the existing level of service calculation. Vehicles and equipment that have exceeded their useful life expectancy have been removed from the analysis.

likelihood of simultaneous and potentially competing calls-for-service for fire suppression, rescue, and emergency response services. The capacity of any fire station is finite and will reach practical limits through its call -for-service frequency and incident time . In order for the City to provide adequate response times as benchmarked by the National Fire Prevention Authority Standard 1710, new facilities will be built, or existing facilities will be expanded as shown within Table 5-5.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The fees will be used to fund or partially fund the Fire Facilities summarized in Table 5-5. The fee will be used to fund new fire facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New development generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for fire facilities.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Fire Facilities Fees will be used to fund or partially fund the expansion of the City’s Fire Department including the construction, expansion or acquisition of fire facilities, apparatus, and specialized equipment as shown in Table 5-5. The Fire Facilities Fees are calculated based on the current level of service of the existing fire facilities provided to the existing service population .

Workers are weighted at a lower weight than residents to reflect their lesser impact on the facilities.

This weighting is calculated as resident equivalents and is used to calculate a cost per capita to maintain the existing level of service as shown in Table 5-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the persons per household and employment density assumptions as defined in Table 2-3, ensuring a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project as shown in Table 5-3.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development is anticipated to generate either new residents or workers. The addition of these new residents and workers directly creates the need for additional fire facilities, which are necessary in order to maintain the existing level of service. The fees are based on the number of resident equivalents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facility is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident and thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 times that of a resident based on the accessibility of fire facilities in relation to a resident. The relationship between the need for the facility and the type of development project is shown in Table 5-3.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The Fire Facilities Fees will provide the funding for maintaining the existing level of service of the City’s fire facilities. These City’s existing facilities and costs are summarized in Table 5-1.

The cost per capita is derived by dividing the existing facilities based on the existing service population in the City as shown in Table 5-2. The cost per capita is spread to each land use based on the number of new residents or workers that the land use will generate as shown in Table 5-3.

By allocating fees based on the number of new residents or workers that the land use will generate, each new development is only paying for their fair share of the required facilities since the need for the facilities directly correlates to the addition of new residents and worker equivalents.

The required facilities, capital expansion, vehicles and equipment to maintain the existing level of service and provide fire suppression, rescue and emergency medical services to the additional 4,600 residents and workers are shown in Table 5-5. Improvements such as the breathing, light and rehab unit, Training Tower/Public Safety Training Facility and the acquisition of a new 107’ Quint Tiller, Rescue Ambulance, Highrise Equipment Inventory and utility vehicle for fire prevention are directly expanding the square footage of facilities or capabilities of the City’s fire department. The addition of vehicles and equipment necessary to serve high rise development is directly related to new development as the City does not currently have the capability to serve high rise development that is now allowable to develop under the City’s Zoning Code.

New development is projected to fund approximately $3. 5 million of the total $5. 3 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 10% of the buildout service population, the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately 9.9% of total buildout fire facilities valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth.

The remaining $ 1.8 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions and grants as shown in Table 5-6.

Section 6 TRANSPORTATION FEE

BACKGROUND
The Transportation Fee is collected for the purpose of maintaining and expanding the capacity of the City’s transportation network. The Transportation Fee is calculated using the System Plan Method. The System Plan Method uses an integrated system methodology where the total transportation network (existing facilities and future improvements), is divided by the total transportation demand on the system (existing users and future users).

Under this method, new development funds the expansion of facilities at a proportional rate to the facilities funded by existing development. Because the fee is based on the full buildout value of the system and allocated across full buildout demand, no existing deficiencies are passed on to future development. In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards , new development is responsible only for buying in to the existing transportation network and paying its proportional share of future improvements at the same cost per PM Peak Hour Trip as existing development. Any existing deficiencies must be addressed with funding outside the fee program.

Future development within the City will pay the transportation impact fee at building permit issuance, unless otherwise required by law, to buy in to the existing network and to fund its proportional share of the system expansion projects described in this section.

Recommended improvements are based on evaluations of the existing and future transportation network of roads and intersections and ability to meet recommended performance and operational criteria under peak hour demand in terms of trips. The proposed expansion facilities in the fee program are system backbone improvements that serve the community at large and does n ot include on-site infrastructure required by specific development projects. Each development project will be required to construct the specific on-site improvements required to serve their project.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities for transportation facilities are based on the additional trips that will be generated by new growth through 2040 within the City . The City groups the planned Transportation Facilities within the following categories: Roadway Improvements, Transit System Improvements , Traffic Signal Improvements, and Accessibility Improvements. All categories were analyzed to the projected 2040 development conditions within the City.

COST SUMMARY AND CIP
The Transportation Fee will fund the expansion of transportation facilities necessary to serve new growth in the City based on their proportional increase in the overall PM Peak Hour Trips added to the City’s Transportation System . Table 6-1 summarizes the future transportation facilities, project costs, and costs attributable to the fee program four transportation categories: Roadway Res. 26-0010

Improvements, Transit System Improvements , Traffic Signal Improvements , and Accessibility Improvements. The facilities will be paid for in part or in whole by the Transportation Fee. The City will use the CIP facilities identified here to guide their five -year Capital Improvement Plan budget based upon City needs and timing of securing adequate revenue. The improvements are anticipated to benefit both existing and future developm ent and new development will pay their fair share of the future improvements based on the total percentage of additional trips being added to the City’s transportation network as well as buying in to the existing transportation improvements.

Table 6-2: City of Manhattan Beach Existing Transportation Improvements Summary

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Transportation Fee uses the System Plan Method to calculate the fee. The System Plan Method calculates the fees based on the total facilities, existing facilities plus planned expansion, which are needed to serve existing land uses plus future development. This method is appropriate when future development utilizes the existing transportation network but also incrementally expands the transportation network. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method “Estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities.”
The cost per trip is calculated by dividing the total cost of the facilities identified in Table 6-1 and Table 6-2 by the total number of trips expected to be generated under 2040 conditions (as shown in Table 6-6).

In order to calculate the Transportation Impact Fee, the total trips generated by new development must be calculated. To calculate the total number of new trips attributable to new development within the City through 2040, the growth projections, detailed in Table 2-1, are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates from Table 6-3 as derived from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE).

Table 6-3: ITE Trip Generation Rates

Residential trips are calculated by multiplying the anticipated growth in residential units (Table 2-1) by the corresponding single family and multi -family trip generation rates. Non -residential trips were calculated by multiplying the anticipated growth in 1,000 building SF ( Table 2-3) by the corresponding trip generation rates for each land use. Commercial trips often coincide with other trips (i.e., Person A stops by the store on their way home from work, Person B stops by a restaurant after grocery shopping, etc.) The ITE Trip Generation Manual, 1 1th Edition, notes all Retail and Services land uses are entitled to a "pass -by" trip reduction between forty to sixty percent (40-60%). This study assumes a fifty percent (50%) trip reduction for commercial which reduces the PM Trip Rate for commercial land uses from 3.40 to 1.70 . Table 6-6 shows the breakdown of the total trip calculation using the City’s growth assumptions identified in Table 2-1.

The trips attributable to existing land uses within the City are calculated in Table 6-4. These trips are added to the trips generated by future development within the City as shown in Table 6-5 to determine the total trips within the City through 2040 as shown in Table 6-6.

Table 6-10: Proportional Allocation of Anticipated Fee Revenue to Proposed Transportation Facilities

REDUCED TRANSPORTATION FEE
In general, residential developments near transit stations generate fewer trips than traditional land use configurations that rely on vehicles as the primary mode of transportation. According to various transportation studies, measurable trip reductions result for proj ects that are near transit stations and where there is a diversity of land uses that promote connectivity and walkability. To account for the reduced trip rates generated by projects meeting the above criteria, an additional trip adjustment factor will be applied to new residential land uses meeting the statutory criteria.

EXISTING AND PROPOSED LEVEL OF SERVICE
AB 602 through the addition of Section 66016.5(a)(2) of the Government code states, “When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
A standard of service refers to adopted policies in law or practice that are either in place for a particular service or are intended to be. Transportation is unique in that each new user creates a direct, immediate impact on the City’s transportation network. There must be sufficient capacity in the transportation system to provide a consistent level of service for all users at the appropriate service standard. When the existing standards of service are not being met, a deficiency exists.

The City of Manhattan Beach adopted a Mobility Plan as part of the General Plan in 2018 which replaced the City’s former Circulation Element from 2003. The adopted Mobility Plan identifies the following goals and standards:
• Provide a balanced, safe, and efficient multi -modal transportation system that serves the mobility needs of all community members, including children, seniors, and the disabled.

• Move commuter traffic through the City primarily on arterial streets and collector streets, as appropriate, to protect other streets from the intrusion of cut through traffic

The City of Manhattan Beach is currently providing a total of 106 lane miles as of the City’s 2024 update of the pavement management program. When applied to the existing service population, this results in a total of 2.57 lane miles per 1,000 persons served as shown in Table 6-11.

Table 6-11: Transportation Existing Level of Service

Due to the fact that the City of Manhattan Beach is mostly built out, the opportunity of expansion of the existing roadway network in terms of lane miles or the widening of existing streets is limited.

In accordance with the City’s Mobility Plan adopted in 2018, the City is prioritizing the expansion of the transportation network through the investment in multimodal expansion and optimization of the existing roadway network the implementation of intelligent transportation systems (ITS).

These multimodal enhancements are critical to accommodate the additional residents and workers anticipated from new development.

Due to the shift to evaluating the transportation network on a multimodal metric, the City developed and adopted Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines in 2020 which established the City’s baseline total Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) at 31.1.

Identification of the Proposed Level of Service and Rationale The Government Code requires that an impact fee nexus study, where appropriate, identify the proposed level of service and explain why that level of service is appropriate.

development calculated by dividing the value of the existing facilities plus the cost of planned facilities by total buildout demand.

Under this approach, new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development , while existing development remains responsible for addressing any existing facility deficiencies through non–impact fee funding sources.

Funding this level of service is appropriate because:
• It ensures new development contributes its proportional fair share of the systemwide transportation facilities required to serve the additional PM Peak Hour Trips generated by future development.
• It establishes a consistent cost per PM Peak Hour Trip based on the future standard of service attributable to growth.
• If new development did not provide funding to maintain the existing level of service, the level of service would decrease citywide and negatively impact both existing and future development.
• The System Plan Methodology ensures that new development is not required to remedy existing deficiencies.

Because the Transportation fee is being calculated using the System Plan Methodology in which the value of the existing improvements and the cost of future improvements is spread based on the total trips within the City’s transportation network, existing deficiencies are not being spread to future development and new development . This methodology ensures that new development is only funding their fair share of the facilities based on their impact on the system. The proportionate share of the systemwide imp rovements attributed to existing development will be funded by a combination of alternative funding sources including but not limited to, the City’s General Fund, grants and special tax assessments.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the Transportation Fee is to fund transportation facilities included by the City of Manhattan Beach’s Public Works Department through the capital improvement planning process required to serve future development in the City of Manhattan Beach . In order to accommodate this need, new facilities must be built and/or existing facilities expanded to ensure that demands from population growth do not degrade the service levels of facilities, leading to congestion, safety concerns, and a diminished quality of life for those who rely on the transportation system.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The fee will be used to fund or partially fund the transportation facilities identified in Table 6-1.

The improvements were identified through the capital improvement planning process completed by the City of Manhattan Beach Public Works Department , as the facilities that are required to mitigate the impact of new development in the City and to ensure that the new development has adequate access to a functional transportation network . These improvements include roadway widening, intersection signalization, ADA improvements, or transit and mobility system improvements including new bicycle infrastructure.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Transportation Fee will be used to fund the new transportation facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increase in transportation due to new development in the City through 2040. The fee for each development project is calculated by taking the cost per trip shown in Table 6-7 and applying this to the estimated trip generation rates of each land use as identified in Table 6-3. The fee calculations are shown in Table 6-7 and Table 6-8.This correlation to trips ensures that each new development pays their fair share of the transportation costs.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional trips that incrementally add to the need for new transportation infrastructure and facilities to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and ensure that transportation facilities can accommodate the increased demand . Without the expansion and improvement of transportation facilities, growth can lead to congestion and exacerbate safety risks by increasing potential conflicts at intersections, pedestrian crossings, and other high -use areas. Therefore, t he transportation infrastructure projects identified in the Nexus Study are essential to support the anticipated growth. Each new residential and non -residential development pays an impact fee based on the additional trips that are expected to be generated by the new develo pment. This calculation is shown in Table 6-7 and Table 6-8.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The transportation facilities and capital expansion projects that are necessary to accommodate the additional 1,622 PM peak hour trips generated by the 4,600 additional residents for new development are summarized in Table 6-1. Improvements are classified into four categories:
roadway improvements, bicycle improvements, traffic signal improvements , and accessibility improvements. Roadway improvements and traffic signal improvements are designed to optimize the existing roadway network to increase multimodal traffic throughput while bicycle improvements and accessibility improvements provide multimodal alternatives to vehicle trips which increase the capacity of the comprehensive transportation network.

Because the fee is calculated utilizing the system plan methodology which calculates a fee per trip based on the total cost of the existing and future improvements, existing deficiencies are not spread to future development. Future development projects within the city were identified and EDUs were calculated based on the estimated trip generation rates for the various land uses. To ensure that each land use only pays their fair share of the transportation improvements based on their trip generation rate , th e existing Transportation fund balance is added to the existing and future transportation improvements to determine the total cost of the City’s transportation network as identified in Table 6-7, the cost of the transportation network is divided by the total trips estimated in 2040 to calculate the cost per Trip. The transportation fee calculation spreading the appropriate costs to the various land uses is shown in Table 6-8. The fee methodology ensures that each land use only pays for their fair share of the transportation improvements based on the amount of trips generated by that land use.

New development is projected to fund approximately $ 5.7 million of the total $ 22.4 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 5.4% of the buildout PM peak hour trips , the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately

5.4% of total buildout transportation network valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth. The remaining $ 16.6 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions and grants as shown in Table 6-10.

Section 7 STORM DRAINAGE FEE

BACKGROUND
The Storm Drainage Fee is collected for the purpose of maintaining and expanding the capacity of the City’s storm drainage system. The Storm Drainage Fee is calculated using the System Plan Method. The System Plan Method uses an integrated system methodology where the total storm drainage system cost (existing facilities plus future improvements) is divided by the total storm drainage demand on the system (existing users and future users) . Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at a proportional rate to the facilities funded by existing development. By definition, the System Plan Method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the buildout system valuation being spread by buildout system demand. In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards, new development is only required to buy into the existing storm drainage system capacity and fund their fair share of the future storm drainage facilities at the same cost per impervious acre as existing development, and the deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the fee program. Future Development within the City will pay a storm drainage impact fee at building permit issuance , unless otherwise required by law, to buy into the City’s existing storm drainage system and their fair share of the system expansion projects described in this section.

The City of Manhattan Beach Storm Drainage Master Plan, dated 2021, use a hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) model of the City’s storm drainage infrastructure to assess the existing storm drainage system and identify potential future improvements . The planned facilities in this Study are sourced from the City of Manhattan Beach Storm Drainage Master Plan , dated 2021, which were based on the H&H model results, Condition Assessment reports dated 2013, and the City’s goals for flood protection.

The proposed expansion facilities in the fee program are system backbone improvements that serve the community at large and does not include on -site infrastructure required by specific development projects. Each development project will be required to construct the specific on-site improvements required to serve their project.

AB 602 AND FEE COLLECTION PER ACRE
As stated in the previous section for AB 602, A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development, unless the agency is able to make three additional findings.

The proposed Storm Drainage fee is proposed to be charged on a per acre basis. The following section discusses why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees imposed on residential housing projects for the storm drainage fees:

Res. 26-0010

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 75 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
• An explanation as to why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on housing development project. Storm drainage fees should be assessed based on the increase in impervious surface area, as this directly correlates with stormwater runoff. Square footage is not an appropriate metric because multi -story structures with identical footprints do not increase runoff proportionally to their total floor area. Fees that are calculated based on the estimated impervious surface, more accur ately account for storm drainage impacts. Higher-density developments typically generate more impervious coverage per acre than lower -density developments, and the fee structure reflects this variation. Using impervious area as the basis for storm drainage fees ensures a hydraulically relevant and equitable assessment of storm drainage impacts. • An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. The proposed storm drainage fees are charged on a per acre basis. The fees vary based on the impervious area each land use is expected to generate based on the per acre impervious factors included in the Storm Drainage Master Plan. Because the fee is based on the additional impervious acres generated by each land use, this methodology provides a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee charged and the burden posed by each development.
• That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees. The storm drainage fees are structured across various residential land use categories and reflect the relationship between density and impervious area. Higher-density developments typically have more units per acre with smaller unit size s. Charging fees by acre results in a lower cost per -unit for larger, detached single family residential units which ali gns with the expected stormwater generation. The fee calculation is based on the estimated impervious acreage associated with each land use category, ensuring that the fees are proportional to the impacts created by the project. By utilizing an impervious acreage methodology for determining the fee, smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities for storm drainage facilities are based on the additional impervious acreage that will be generated by new growth in the City through 2040.

Impervious surfaces are those that do not allow water to pass through. Impervious acreage is used in the calculation of the Storm Drainage Fee to ensure the relationship between the planned storm drainage facilities the fee will be expended on is related to the impact new development will have on the storm drainage system.

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Storm Drainage Fee uses the System Plan methodology for calculating the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method “Estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities.” In order to distribute the share of storm drainage costs to each land use type, the total impervious acreage of the City through 2040 must be calculated. The impervious factors per land use were sourced from the City of Manhattan Beach Storm Drainage Master Plan dated 2021.

The existing impervious acreage generated by the existing City land uses are calculated in Table 7-3. These impervious acres are added to future development’s impervious acres as shown in Table 7-4 to determine the total impervious acres in the City through 2040 as shown in Table 7-5.

EXISTING AND PROPOSED LEVEL OF SERVICE
AB 602 through the addition of Section 66016.5(a)(2) of the Government code states, “When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
A standard of service refers to adopted policies in law or practice that are either in place for a particular service or are intended to be. There must be sufficient capacity in the storm drainage systems to provide a consistent level of service for all customers at the appropriate service standard. When the existing standards of service are not being met, a deficiency exists.

Per the City’s Storm Drainage Master Plan adopted in 2021 and subsequently updated based on the City’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database, the City maintains approximately 21 miles of storm drainage facilities. These facilities include open channels, closed conduits, catch basins, laterals, manholes, pump stations, and other related facilities. As described in the Storm Drainage Master Plan dated 2021, the City’s existing storm drainage network does not have the capacity to accommodate stormwater flows in specific locations under 10 -year, 25-year and 50- Description

year storm events. The City’s is currently meeting the existing level of service and providing storm drainage infrastructure to accommodate the runoff from a 25-year storm event with the exception of the locations identified in Figure 5-2 of the City’s Storm Drainage Master Plan adopted in 2021.

The upgrade of the storm drainage infrastructure to accommodate the 25 -year storm event under current conditions will be funded by existing development’s fair share of the Storm Drainage Master Plan’s CIP.

Identification of the Proposed Level of Service and Rationale The Government Code states that the Nexus Study, if appropriate, shall identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. Under the System Plan Methodology, the City’s storm drainage level of service is defined as meeting the capacity requirements for an Urban Flood (a 25 -year storm event on a saturated watershed), as established in the 2006 Los Angeles County Hydrology Manual, while also ensuring the protection of property and maintaining passable street conditions during a 50 -year storm event. Under this approach, the City’s storm drainage fee is based on an integrated system of existing and planned storm drain facilities, wi th the future standard attributable to new development calculated by dividing the value of the existing system plus the cost of planned improvements by total horizon-year impervious acres.

Utilizing the proposed level of service is appropriate because:
• It establishes a consistent cost per impervious acres for both existing and future development.
• It ensures new development contributes its proportional fair share of the storm drainage facilities required to mitigate the additional runoff generated by future increases in impervious surface area
• If new development did not provide funding to mitigate their storm water runoff at the same cost per impervious acre as the costs attributable to existing development, the level of service would decrease citywide and negatively impact both existing and future development through an increase in flood events.
• The System Plan Methodology ensures that new development is not required to remedy existing deficiencies.

Because the City of Manhattan Beach’s Storm Drainage fee is utilizing the System Plan Methodology, which calculates the proposed fee utilizing the total value of the existing and the cost of future improvements and subsequently dividing by the total impervious acres at the horizon year, future development funds an integrated system of facilities at the future standard Res. 26-0010

applicable to new development. As the System Plan Method spreads the totality of storm drainage improvements based on the total impervious acres at the horizon year, existing deficiencies are by definition not being spread to future development and new development is not funding a higher level of service that is applied to existing development.

Existing deficiencies identified in Figure 5-2 of the City’s 2021 Storm Drainage Master Plan are not attributable to new development and therefore are not included in the proportional share assigned to future development. New development will fund only its fair share of system expansions needed to serve horizon-year impervious acreage. This proportionate share of the systemwide improvements attributed to existing development, approximately 94.66% of the future improvements as shown in Table 7-9,will be funded by a combination of alternative funding sources including but not limited to, the City’s General Fund, grants and special tax assessments.

The planned capital projects in Table 7-1 were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Storm Drainage Master Plan dated 2021 and the City’s adopted 2026 -2030 Capital Improvement Plan and subsequently updated by City Staff, to either maintain existing levels of service as growth occurs or to not perpetuate deficiencies.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the Storm Drainage Fee is to fund the facilities that are necessary to convey stormwater runoff from the increased impervious area created by future development in the City.

To accommodate this increased stormwater runoff, new facilities must be built and/or existing facilities expanded.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The Storm Drainage Fee will be used to fund the storm drainage projects shown in Table 7-1.

These storm drainage projects were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Storm Drainage Master Plan , dated 20 21 and the City’s adopted 2026 -2030 Capital Improvement Plan and subsequently updated by City Staff, as the facilities required to mitigate the impact of new development in the City to ensure that the new development would have adequate storm drainage supply and pressure.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Storm Drainage Fee will be used to fund the new storm drainage facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increase in storm drainage demand due to new development in City.

The fee for each development project is calculated based on the estimated impervious factor of each land use type identified in the City. This correlation ensures that the fee is equal to the need generated by that specific land use. The fee calculations are shown in Table 7-6 and Table 7-7.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

New development requires sufficient capacity in the storm drainage system to convey stormwater runoff created by the increased impervious area within the City. Ensuring there is sufficient capacity to accommodate stormwater runoff in the City’s storm drainage system requires the construction of new storm drainage lines or upsizing existing storm drainage lines. Each new residential and non-residential development pays an impact fee based on the amount of impervious acres it is expected to generate. This calculation is shown in Table 7-6 and Table 7-7.

The storm drainage improvements and capital expansion projects that are necessary to accommodate the additional 52.4 acres of impervious surface generated by future development and mitigate flooding under a 25 -year storm urban flood event are shown in Table 7-1. The projects have been classified into five classifications where three classifications are based on prioritization of anticipated construction timing and anticipated demand for the facilities and two categories that increase wate r quality at system outfalls while maintaining ADA compliance.

Projects were prioritized into short term (3-5 years), near future (5-20 year) and long term (20 year – Buildout) utilizing a weighted need matrix as defined in the 2021 Storm Drainage Master Plan.

To ensure that each land use only pays their fair share of the storm drainage improvements based on their impervious acreage generated, the total costs of the planned storm drainage facilities are divided by the total impervious acres, as shown in Table 7-6, to calculate costs per impervious acre. The storm drainage fee calculation to spread the appropriate costs over the various land uses is shown in Table 7-7. The fee methodology ensures that each land use only pays for their fair share of the storm drainage improvements based on the amount of impervious acreage generated by that land use.

New development is projected to fund approximately $ 6.4 million of the total $ 74.1 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 5. 3% of the buildout acres of impervious surface area , the projected fee revenue, which represents Res. 26-0010

approximately 5. 3% of total buildout storm drainage network valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth. The remaining $67.8 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions, Measure W, special tax assessments and grants as shown in Table 7-9.

Section 8 WATER FEE

BACKGROUND
The Water Fee is collected for the purpose of maintaining and expanding the capacity of the City’s water system. The Water Fee is calculated using the System Plan Method. The System Plan Method uses a n integrated system methodology where the total water system cost ( existing facilities plus future improvements) is divided by the total water demand on the system (existing users and future users). Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at a proportional rate to the facilities funded by existing development. By definition, the System Plan Method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the buildout system valuation being spread by buildout system demand.

In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current f acility standards, new development is only required to buy into the existing water system capacity and fund their fair share of the future water facilities at the same cost based on the water demanded per acre as existing development, and the deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the fee program . Future Development within the City will pay a water impact fee at building permit issuance, unless otherwise required by law, to buy into the City’s existing water system and their fair share of the sy stem expansion projects described in this section.

Recommended improvements are based on evaluations of the existing and future water system’s treatment, storage and pumping capacities and ability to meet recommended performance and operational criteria under maximum day demand plus fire flow and peak hour demand scenarios.

AB 602 AND FEE COLLECTION PER METER
As stated in the previous section for AB602, A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development, unless the agency is able to m ake three additional findings.

The proposed water fees will be charged on a fee per meter basis. The following section discusses why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees imposed on residential housing projects for the water fees:
• An explanation as to why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate water fees imposed on housing development project. Water fees should be assessed based on the increase in water demand generated by each new residential unit. Square footage is not an appropriate metric because residential units do not proportionally increase Res. 26-0010

water demand with increases in square footage. For example, if a kitchen is 200 square feet larger in one single family home than the adjacent single -family home, the additional square footage does not necessarily increase the water demand of the home. Col lecting a water fee based on meter size ensures that the fees paid are proportional to the water demand of that unit. Higher-density developments typically generate more water demand per acre than lower-density developments, and as a result will require la rger water meters to accommodate the water demand of the development. Collecting a fee based on meter size reflects this variation. Using meter size as the basis for water fees ensures a hydraulically relevant and equitable assessment of water impacts. • An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the water fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. The water fees are charged on a meter size basis with one category for single family units and ten fee categories for non-residential development based on the necessary hydraulic capacity in order to meet the water demands of the development project. The fees vary based on the water demand each development project is expected to generate based on the water demand factors included in the City’s Water Master Plan. Because the fee is based on the additional water demand generated by each land use, this methodology provides a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee charged and the bur den posed by each development.
• That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees. The water fees are structured across meter size categories and reflect the relationship between density and water demand. Higher -density developments typically have more units per acre with smaller unit sizes served by a common water meter that are often subsequently sub metered.

Charging fees based on meter size results in a lower cost per unit than lar ger, detached single family residential units which aligns with the expected water demand of each unit.

The fee calculation is based on the estimated water demand associated with each meter size, ensuring that the fees are proportional to the impacts creat ed by the project. By utilizing a meter size methodology for determining the fee, smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities for water facilities are based on the additional water demand that will be generated by new growth in the City through 2040.

COST SUMMARY AND CIP
The Water Fee will fund the expansion of water facilities necessary to serve new growth in the City based on their proportional increase in their water demand. Table 8-1 summarizes the future water facilities and project costs identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Water Master Plan Res. 26-0010

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Water Fee uses the System Plan methodology for calculating the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method “Estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities.” In order to distribute the share of water costs to each land use type, the total water demand of the City through 2040 must be calculated. The water demand factors in terms of gallons per day per acre were sourced from the City of Manhattan Beach Water Master Plan dated 2022. These demand factors are summarized in Table 8-3. The water demand factor for each land use is then converted into an equivalent dwelling unit (EDU) factor, which is the estimated average water demand for each land use as compared to the average water demand of a single -family acre. This EDU factor is then multiplied by the acreage for each land use to determine the total EDUs.

Table 8-3: Water Demand Factors

The water EDUs generated by the existing City land uses are calculated in Table 8-4. These water EDUs are added to future development’s water EDUs as shown in Table 8-5 to determine the total water EDUs in the City through 2040 as shown in Table 10-6.

identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
A standard of service refers to adopted policies in law or practice that are either in place for a particular service or are intended to be. Water service is unique in that each new user creates a direct, immediate impact on water distribution, supply, and treatment. There must be sufficient capacity in the water systems to provide a consistent level of service for all customers at the appropriate service standard. When the existing standards of service are not being met, a deficiency exists.

Per the City’s Water Master Plan adopted in 2021 and subsequently updated based on the City’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database, the City maintains approximately 140 miles of water pipelines ranging in diameter from 4 inches to 45 inches and divided into two pressure zones.

The City’s two existing groundwater wells and imported water agreement with the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California provide and meet the required maximum daily demand of 4,451 gallons per minute. In addition to the maximum daily demand, the water system must maintain a minimum of 40 psi during Peak Hour Demand as well as a minimum of 20 psi at fire hydrant outlets. Based on the hydrological analysis completed by Stantec in the City’s Water Master Plan adopted in 2021, the City’s existing water system meets the facility needs of existing development and there are no deficiencies in the existing systems for distribution, fire flow, supply or storage. The Water Master Plan does include recommendations for system imp rovements in reliability in the event that a portion of the system is out of order.

Identification of the Proposed Level of Service and Rationale The Government Code states that the Nexus Study, if appropriate, shall identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. Under the System Plan Methodology, the City’s water level of service is defined by an integrated system of existing and planned water facilities, with the future standard attributable to new development calculated by dividing the value of the existing syst em plus the cost of planned improvements by total horizon-year water demand. Under this approach, new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development, while existing development remains responsible for addressing any existing system deficiencies through non – impact fee funding sources.

Maintaining the existing level of service of meeting the maximum daily demand of 4,451 gallons per minute, maintaining a minimum of 40 psi during Peak Hour Demand as well as maintaining a minimum of 20 psi at fire hydrant outlets is appropriate because:

Res. 26-0010
107 of 183

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 102 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
• It ensures new development contributes its proportional fair share of the increased water requirements necessary to support the additional water demand generated by future development.
• It ensures required maximum daily demand of water and distribution pressure are sufficient to accommodate the additional development.
• If new development did not provide funding to maintain the existing level of service, the level of service would decrease citywide and negatively impact both existing and future development.

Because the City of Manhattan Beach’s Water fee is utilizing the System Plan Methodology, which calculates the proposed fee utilizing the total value of the existing and the cost of future improvements and subsequently dividing by the total water demand at the horizon year, future development funds an integrated system of facilities at the future standard applicable to new development. As the System Plan Method spreads the totality of water improvements based on the total demand at the horizon year, existing deficiencies are by definition not being spread to future development and new development is not funding a higher level of service that is applied to existing development . The proportionate share of the systemwide improvements attributed to existing development will be funded by a combination of alternative funding sources including but not limited to, the City’s General Fund, grants and special tax assessments.

The planned capital projects in Table 8-1 were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Water Master Plan, dated 2022 and subsequently updated by City Staff, to maintain existing levels of service as growth occurs and prevent the creation of future deficiencies.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the Water Fee is to fund the facilities that are necessary to provide adequate water supply, treatment and distribution to future development in the City. To accommodate this increased demand, new facilities must be built and/or existing facilities expanded.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The Water Fee will be used to fund or partially fund the water projects shown in Table 8-1. These water projects were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Water Master Plan, dated 2022 and subsequently updated by City Staff , as the facilities required to mitigate the impact of new Res. 26-0010

City of Manhattan Beach
development in the City to ensure that the new development would have adequate water supply and pressure.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Water Fee will be used to fund or partially fund the new water facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increase in water demand due to new development in City. The fee for each development project is calculated based on the estimated water use of each land use type identified in the City. This correlation ensures that the fee is equal to the need generated by that specific land use. The EDU calculations based on the water demand factor for each land use are shown in Table 8-3. The fee calculations are shown in Table 8-7 and Table 8-8.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

New development requires the addition of new or upsized water lines to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and to ensure that the required water pressure can be met.

Each new residential and non-residential development pays an impact fee based on the amount of water it is expected to use. This calculation is shown in Table 8-7 and Table 8-8.

The water improvements and capital expansion projects that are necessary to accommodate the additional water demand of the 452.6 EDUs generated by development are shown in Table 8-1.

Improvements are classified into three categories: Facility Improvement Projects, Fire Flow Improvement Projects, and Pipe Replacement Projects. Facility Improvement Projects are directly related improvements for the Block 35 Facility to address functionality and opti mization of the facility as discussed in the Water Master Plan dated 2021. Fire Flow Improvement Projects and Pipeline Replacement Projects are designed to increase the residual pressure of the water system, address velocity concerns and increase the reliability of the system to meet the criteria discussed in the Water Master Plan.

Future development projects within the city were identified and EDUs were calculated based on the estimated daily demand for the various land uses as shown in Table 8-3. The calculation of water costs per EDU is shown in Table 8-7. The water fee calculation to spread the appropriate costs over the various land uses is shown in Table 8-8. The fee methodology ensure s that each land use only pays for their fair share of the water improvements based on the amount of water required by that land use.

New development is projected to fund approximately $ 18.2 million of the total $ 62.2 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 3.1% of the buildout average water demand EDUs in terms of gallons per day per acre, the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately 3.1% of total buildout water network valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth. The remaining $44 million in required funding will be derived from a combination of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions, water enterprise fund and grants as shown in Table 8-10.

Section 9 SEWER FEE

BACKGROUND
The Sewer Fee is collected for the purpose of maintaining and expanding the capacity of the City’s sewer system. The Sewer Fee is calculated using the System Plan Method. The System Plan Method uses a n integrated system methodology where the total sewer system cost (existing facilities plus future improvements) is divided by the total sewer demand on the system (existing users and future users). Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at a proportional rate to the facilities funded by existing development. By definition, the System Plan Method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development as a result of the fees being established based on the buildout system valuation being spread by buildout system demand.

In other words, if a deficiency exists in the current facility standards, new development is only required to buy into the existing water system capacity and fund their fair share of the future water facilities at the same cost based on the water demanded per acre as existing development, and the deficiency must be rectified by funding outside of the fee program . Future Development within the City will pay a sewer impact fee at building permit issuance, unless otherwise required by law, to buy into the City’s existing sewer system and their fair share of the system expansion projects described in this section.

Recommended improvements are based on evaluations of the existing and future sewer system’s conveyance and treatment capacities and ability to meet recommended performance and operational criteria under maximum day demand and peak hour demand scenarios. The proposed expansion facilities in the fee program are system backbone improvements that serve the community at large and does not include on-site infrastructure required by specific development projects. Each development project will be required to construct the specific on-site improvements required to serve their project.

SERVICE POPULATION
Demand for services and the associated facilities for sewer facilities are based on the additional sewer demand that will be generated by new growth in the City through 2040.

COST SUMMARY AND CIP
The Sewer Fee will fund the expansion of sewer facilities necessary to serve new growth in the City based on their proportional increase in their sewage generation . Table 9-1 summarizes the future sewer facilities, project costs identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Wastewater Master Plan dated 201 0 and subsequently updated by the City of Manhattan Beach Public Works Department. Table 9-2 summarizes the City’s existing sewer facilities, identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Wastewater Master Plan dated 2010.

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 113 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach

FEE METHODOLOGY
The Sewer Fee uses the System Plan methodology for calculating the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method “Estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities.” In order to distribute the share of sewer costs to each land use type, the total sewer demand of the City through 2040 must be calculated. The sewer demand factors in terms of gallons per day per acre were sourced from the City of Manhattan Beach Wastewater Plan dated 2010. These demand factors are summarized in Table 9-3. The sewer demand factor for each land use is then converted into an EDU factor, which is the estimated average sewer demand for each land use as compared to the average sewer demand of a single -family acre. This EDU factor is then multiplied by the residential and non-residential acreage to determine the total EDUs.

Table 9-3: Sewer Demand Factors

The sewer EDUs generated by the existing City land uses are calculated in Table 9-4. These sewer EDUs are added to future development’s sewer EDUs as shown in Table 9-5 to determine the total sewer EDUs in the City through 2040 as shown in Table 9-6.

The cost per EDU is calculated by taking the City’s existing sewer improvements and adding in the planned sewer improvements then diving the total facility costs by the total EDUs in the City through 2040. Table 9-7 calculates the cost per EDU.

Table 9-7: Sewer Cost per EDU Calculation

FEE SUMMARY
The Sewer Fee is based on new development’s fair share of the facilities identified in the Sewer Master Plan and buy-in to the City’s existing sewer facilities.

The Sewer Fee is calculated using the cost per EDU from Table 9-7. The cost per EDU is then multiplied by the EDU factor to calculate a fee per acre. This fee per acre is then divided by the residential unit density or maximum allowable floor area ratio (per the City of Manhattan Beach General Plan ) of each land use to calculate a fee per residential unit and fee per 1,000 non - residential building square footage. This fee per residential unit is then divided by the average unit assumption for Single Family and Multi -Family to reach a fee per square foot. Table 9-8 summarizes the Sewer Fee.

Table 9-10: Proportional Allocation of Anticipated Fee Revenue to Proposed Sewer Facilities

EXISTING AND PROPOSED LEVEL OF SERVICE
AB 602 through the addition of Section 66016.5(a)(2) of the Government code states, “When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.” The required findings are as follows.

Identification of the Existing Level of Service
A standard of service refers to adopted policies in law or practice that are either in place for a particular service or are intended to be. Sewer service is unique in that each new user creates a direct, immediate impact on sewer conveyance and treatment. There must be sufficient capacity in the sewer system to provide a consistent level of service for all customers at the appropriate service standard. When the existing standards of service are not being met, a deficiency exists.

Per the City’s Wastewater Master Plan adopted in 2010 and subsequently updated based on the City’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database, the City of Manhattan Beach’s sewer collection system is comprised of gravity sewers, pump stations and force mains. The collection system is comprised of approximately 81.6 miles of pipe across two sewer sheds and ties into the Los Angeles County Sanitation District’s trunk lines at various locations within the City.

The hydraulic analysis of the City’s existing sewer network completed as part of the 2010 Wastewater Master Plan was based on the depth to diameter ratio of 0.64 at peak dry weather flows. This ratio provides capacity for 25 percent of peak dry weather flo w for inflow and infiltration. Based on the hydrological analysis completed by AKM Consulting Engineers in the City’s Wastewater Master Plan adopted in 2010, the City’s existing sewer system meets the facility needs of existing development throughout the City with the exception of three specific locations detailed in Figure 7-3 of the Wastewater Master Plan.

City of Manhattan Beach
Identification of the Proposed Level of Service and Rationale The Government Code states that the Nexus Study, if appropriate, shall identify the proposed new level of service and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. Under the System Plan Methodology, the City’s wastewater level of service is defined by maintaining a maximum depth-to-diameter (d/D) ratio of 0.64 under peak dry-weather flow conditions, ensuring the sewer collection system has adequate capacity to convey projected wastewater flows at buildout. Under this approach, the C ity’s sewer impact fee is based on an integrated system of existing and planned wastewater facilities, with the future standard attributable to new development calculated by dividing the value of the existing system plus the cost of planned improvements by total horizon-year wastewater demand.

Utilizing this level of service is appropriate because:
• It ensures new development contributes its proportional fair share of the increased sewer requirements necessary to support the additional sewage generated by future development. • It ensures that the required maximum depth to diameter ratio of 0.64 at peak dry weather flows is maintained and ensures the sewer system has sufficient capacity to accommodate the additional development.

If new development did not provide funding to maintain the existing level of service, the level of service would decrease citywide and negatively impact both existing and future development.

Because the City of Manhattan Beach’s Sewer fee is utilizing the System Plan Methodology, which calculates the proposed fee utilizing the total value of the existing and the cost of future improvements and subsequently dividing by the total sewer demand at the horizon year, future development funds an integrated system of facilities at the future standard applicable to new development. As the System Plan Method spreads the totality of sewer improvements based on the total demand at the horizon year, existing deficiencies are by definition not being spread to future development and new development is not funding a higher level of service that is applied to existing development.

The existing deficiencies identified in Figure 7-3 of the Wastewater Master Plan dated 2010 are not attributed to new development and will be funded by existing developments fair share contributions to the future sewer facilities. The proportionate share of the systemwide improvements attributed to existing development approximately 92.39% of the future improvements as shown in Table 9-10, will be funded by a combination of alternative funding sources including but not limited to, the City’s General Fund, grants and special tax assessments.

The planned capital projects in Table 9-1 were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Wastewater Master Plan dated 2010 and subsequently updated by City Staff, to either maintain existing levels of service as growth occurs or to not perpetuate deficiencies.

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.

The purpose of the Sewer Fee is to fund the facilities that are necessary to provide sewer to future development in the City. To accommodate this increased demand, new facilities must be built and/or existing facilities expanded.

Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.

The Sewer Fee will be used to fund the sewer projects shown in Table 9-1. These sewer projects were identified in the City of Manhattan Beach Wastewater Master Plan , dated 201 0 and subsequently updated by City Staff, as the facilities required to mitigate the impact of new development in the City to ensure that the new development would have adequate sewer conveyance and treatment capacity.

Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

The Sewer Fee will be used to fund the new sewer facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increase in sewer demand due to new development in City. The fee for each development project is calculated based on the estimated sewer use of each land use type identified in the City. This correlation ensures that the fee is equal to the need generated by that specific land use. The EDU calculations based on the sewer demand factor for each land use are shown in Table 9-3. The fee calculations are shown in Table 9-7 and Table 9-8.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

New development requires the addition of new or upsized sewer lines to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and to ensure that the required sewer conveyance and treatment demand can be met . Each new residential and non -residential development pays an impact fee based on the amount of sewer it is expected to use. This calculation is shown in Table 9-7 and Table 9-8.

Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The sewer improvements and capital expansion projects that are necessary to accommodate the additional sewer flow rates generated by the anticipated 155 EDUs in terms of gallons per day per acre are shown in Table 8-1.The improvements are categorized into three categories: Collection System Capacity Improvement Projects, Collection System Condition Improvement Projects and Pump Station Improvements. These projects are essential to maintain system reliability, protect public health, and prevent overflows.

Future development projects within the city were identified and EDUs were calculated based on the estimated daily demand for the various land uses as shown in Table 9-3. The calculation of sewer costs per EDU is shown in Table 9-7. The sewer fee calculation to spread the appropriate costs over the various land uses is shown in Table 9-8. The fee methodology ensure s that each land use only pays for their fair share of the sewer improvements based on the amount of sewage discharge generated by that land use.

New development is projected to fund approximately $ 16.2 million of the total $ 30.6 million in programmed facility improvements. Because new development accounts for approximately 7.7% of the buildout sewer flow generation EDUs in terms of gallons per day per acre, the projected fee revenue, which represents approximately 7.7% of total buildout sewer network valuation reflects only the proportional share attributable to growth. The remaining $14.4 million in required funding will be derived from a combinati on of other funding sources including but not limited to general fund contributions, wastewater enterprise fund and grants as shown in Table 9-10.

Section 10 PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION FEE

BACKGROUND
The City, with assistance from consultants will oversee the implementation and administration of the City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fee Program, consistent with the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act. AB 602, which came into effect on January 1, 2022, adds additional nexus study requirements. Furthermore, AB 1483, which became effective January 1, 2020, requires that public agencies make certain information available on their website, increasing the administrative responsibilities of the City.

The five percent ( 5%) Program Administration Fee is added to fund the costs of the City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program. City staff time includes one full-time management analyst in the finance department.

Industry standard ranges from three to six percent ( 3-6%) for the administrative component of a development fee program based on research completed by Best, Best & Krieger and presented a t the California Society of Municipal Finance Officers Chapter meeting in October of 2025.

The five percent ( 5%) administration component of the Manhattan Beach Impact Fee Program includes, but is not limited to, the following activities:
• Posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on City’s Websites • Annual fee adjustments
• Annual fee reporting
• Five-year fee reporting
• Application and tracking of fee credits/reimbursements. • Periodic nexus study updates
• Staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking and administration.

In addition to the aforementioned administrative activities, the City is responsible for using fee revenues to plan for and construct required capital facilities. The City does not currently collect an administration fee but a five percent (5%) fee is included in this Nexus Study given the additional fee reporting requirements of AB 516, posting of information per AB 1483, Nexus Study updates every eight years per AB 602, additional staff time to administer this fee program, and the potential for a Master Plan in the future to support a Nexus Study update.

For projects that are subject to only certain fee categories, the Program Administration Fee will be five percent (5%) of the fee categories fees that are assessed on the project. For example, if an area is subject to the Transportation Fee but not the other City of Manhattan Beach Impact fees, the project will be charged a Program Administration Fee equal to five percent (5%) of the Res. 26-0010

Due to the fact that program administration is a new fee, it is not possible to analyze the annual program management funding requirements. However, i t is anticipated that administrative costs will continue to increase due to the additional requirements of state legislation. It is also anticipated that revenue and expenditures will vary year to year due to the cyclical nature of five-year reporting requirements, nexus study updates, and the housing market . The City will monitor and evaluate the program administration expenditures to ensure that the program administration fee is reflective of the required expenditures.

calculating credits and issuing reimbursements and the required annual reporting under AB 1600 which are required to successfully and legally implement the City of Manhattan Beach’s Impact Fee Program . New residents and employees that result from new development increases the demand for new infrastructure and facilities. These facilities will be funded through the City of Manhattan Beach’s Impact Fee Program, which requires City staff and consultant time to manage and administer. The administration of the City of Manhattan Beach’s Impact Fee Program will be funded through the Program Administration fee which is calculated as a fee of five percent of the total City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fee Program for each land use.

Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.

Each new development adds residents or workers to the City and in order to maintain the City’s desired level of service, new parkland development, general government, parks and recreation, police, fire, transportation, storm drainage, water, and sewer facilities must be built. These facilities are funded through the City’s Impact fees. To ensure these fees for new development are administered according to state law, regular updates, tracking and reporting are required. In addition, City staff must provide fee quotes for new development. To collect the funding for these resulting activities, the Program Administration Fee is five percent (5%) of the total City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fees as summarized in Table 10-1, Table 10-2, and Table 10-3. Using a percentage of the City of Manhattan Beach Impact fees ensures that each new development is charged their fair share based on the impacts to the City’s infrastructure . A five percent (5%) fee is in alignment with the industry standard range of three to six percent (3-6%).

The Program Administration Fee provides the funding to administer the City’s Impact Fee Program. The City is adopting a policy of collecting a five percent (5%) of the total Impact fees to administer their fee program effectively. Since this fee is calculated as a percentage of the other City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fees as summarized in Table 10-1, Table 10-2, and Table 10-3, each land use pays for their fair share of the management costs based on their impact to the City’s infrastructure.

Section 11 IMPLEMENTATION AND ADMINISTRATION

IMPLEMENTATION
According to the California Government Code, prior to levying a new fee or increasing an existing fee, an agency must hold at least one open and public meeting with at least 30 days’ notice. In addition, notice of the time and place of the meeting, including a general explanation of the matter to be considered, and a statement that the data required by this section is available, shall be mailed at least 14 days prior to the meeting to any interested party who files a written request with the local agency for mailed notice of the meeting on new or increased fees or service charges. Any written request for mailed notices shall be valid for one year from the date on which it is filed unless a renewal request is filed.

At least ten days prior to the meeting, the agency must make data on infrastructure costs and funding sources available to the public. Notice of the time and place of the meeting and a general explanation of the matter are to be published in accordance with Section 6062a of the Government Code, which states that publication of notice shall occur for ten days in a newspaper regularly published once a week or more. Two publications, with at least five days intervening between the dates of first and last publication not counting such publication dates, are sufficient. The period of notice commences upon the first day of publication and terminates at the end of the tenth day, including therein the first day.

The new or increased fees shall be effective no earlier than 60 days following the final action on the adoption or increase of the fees. Following adoption of the fees, the fees and supporting information must be placed on the City’s website.

FEE PROGRAM ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS
The Government Code requires the City to report every year and every fifth year certain financial information regarding the fees. The City must make available within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year the following information from the prior fiscal year:

1. Brief description of the type of fee in the account or fund

2. Amount of the fee

3. Beginning and ending balance in the account or fund

4. Amount of fees collected and the interest earned during the previous year

5. Identification of each public improvement for which fees were expended and the amount of expenditures, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees

6. An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the local agency determines that sufficient funds have been Res. 26-0010
134 of 183

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 129 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
collected to complete financing on an incomplete public improvement and the public improvement remains incomplete

7. Description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees will be expended, and when each loan will be repaid and the rate of interest the account will receive on the loan

8. Identification of any refunds made once determined that sufficient monies have been collected to fund fee-related projects
On October 11, 2023, California Governor Gavin Newso m signed into law AB 516 which amended certain portions of the Mitigation Fee Act related to the annual and five -year reporting requirements. Under AB 516, Requirements 6 and 8 have been expanded to include the following:
6a. Identification of each public improvement identified in the previous report and whether construction began on the approximate date noted
6b. For previously identified projects that did not start construction on the approximate date in the previous report, the reason for the delay and a revised approximate date that the local agency will commence construction, if applicable 8a. For any refunds made, the number of persons or entities identified to receive those refunds
The City must make this information available for public review and must also present it at the next regularly scheduled public meeting not less than 15 days after this information is made available to the public.

For the fifth fiscal year following the first deposit into the account or fund, and every five years thereafter, the City must make the following findings with respect to any remaining funds in the fee account, regardless of whether those funds are committed or uncommitted:

1. Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put.

2. Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged.

3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing any incomplete improvements.

4. Designate the approximate dates on which funding in item (3) above is expected to be deposited into the fee account.

As with the annual disclosure, the five-year report must be made public within 180 days after the end of the City’s fiscal year and must be reviewed at the next regularly scheduled public meeting.

FEE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
The City of Manhattan Beach Impact fees may be adjusted periodically to reflect revised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., state or federal grants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square footage, or changes in the land use plan. In addition, the fees will be automatically updated each year on July 1st based on the May ENR CCI for Los Angeles.

TIMING OF PAYMENT
Fees will be collected at the time the building permit for each structure is issued, unless an alternative timing requirement applies under the California Government Code. All residential projects will be charged based on the livable square footage of each dwelling unit. For phased or multi-building residential projects, fees will be calculated and collected separately for each building at the time its permit is issued.

For multi-family communal portions of the development, the following guidance applies:
• Residential-only common areas (e.g., clubhouses, resident -only lounges, private gyms, laundry rooms, storage rooms, mail/package rooms, maintenance and utility rooms) are not assessed additional impact fees.
• Publicly accessible areas (e.g., leasing offices, publicly accessible commercial spaces, community rooms open to the public) will be assessed based on the non -residential land use category that most closely matches the use (e.g., office, retail, or other commercial use).
• Parking garages, carports, and private circulation areas within multi -family developments are not assessed separate fees unless they contain commercial or public - serving uses.

Further information on what portion of a project may be subject to fees is discussed within Section 2 – Average Unit Sizes.

DESIGNATED RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS DEFERRED FEE PAYMENTS
California Senate Bill 937 (SB 937), which became effective on January 1, 2025, significantly delays the collection of fees for residential projects defined as “Designated Residential Development Projects.” Specifically, SB 937 states that public agencies may not impose development impact fees on Designated Residential Development Projects until the project receives a Certificate of Occupancy or Temporary Certificate of Occupancy. Furthermore, local agencies may not charge interest on the delayed fee paymen ts for such projects; rather, the fees must reflect the fee amount in place at the time the project’s building permits are issued. In Res. 26-0010

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 131 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
addition, the bill extends housing entitlements by 24 months for projects with entitlements issued prior to January 1, 2024, and set to expire on or before December 31, 2025.

SB 937 was designed to incentivize housing production by mitigating the effects of rising construction costs and interest rates, which hinder the financial feasibility of new housing projects.

By deferring fee payments with zero interest, SB 937 can help t o incentivize housing developers, who must demonstrate financial feasibility to investors and lending institutions before receiving necessary funding. Additionally, by extending entitlements, the bill allows developers more time to raise funding before con structing the project. By providing these incentives to developers, the bill strives to increase housing production, allowing local jurisdictions to fulfill their housing goals.

Housing projects must meet one of the following conditions to be considered a Designated Residential Development Project:

1. 100% of residential units (excluding the manager’s unit) are reserved for low -income households.

2. The project meets the requirements regarding a Low Barrier Navigation Center Developments, per Government Code Section 65662.

3. The project is approved by a local government and meets all site -specific criteria, affordability criteria, and objective development standards pertaining to affordable housing developments located in commercial zones or mixed-income housing developments along commercial corridors, as specified by Article 2 (commencing with Section 65912.110) or Article 3 (commencing with Section 65912.120) of Chapter 4.1 of the Government Code.

4. The project is subject to a streamlined ministerial approval process, per Government Code Section 65913.4.

5. The project meets the criteria specified in the Affordable Housing on Faith and Higher Education Lands Act of 2023 (SB4)

6. The project is entitled to a Density Bonus, per Government Code Section 65915.

7. The project features 10 or fewer units.

Although fees are deferred for Designated Residential Development Projects until the project receives a Certificate of Occupancy or Temporary Certificate of Occupancy, it is important to note that public agencies may still collect utility service fees afte r receiving an application for utility services. In addition, developers may be required to pay development impact fees prior to the Certificate of Occupancy if construction does not commence within five years of the building permit issue date.

CREDITS AND REIMBURSEMENT POLICIES
The City may provide fee credits or reimbursements to developers who dedicate land or construct eligible facilities. Fee credits or reimbursements may be provided up to the cost of the improvement, as shown in this study, subject to periodic inflation adjustments, or the actual cost Res. 26-0010
137 of 183

Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 132 January 2026
City of Manhattan Beach
paid by the developer, whichever is lower. For construction cost overruns, only the amount shown in the study, subject to periodic inflation adjustments, would be credited or reimbursed. The City will evaluate the appropriate fee credit or reimbursement based on the value of the dedication or improvement. Credits or reimbursements may b e repaid based on the priority of the capital improvements, as determined by the City. The City will determine fee credits and reimbursements on a case-by-case basis and possibly through the use of a development agreement.

Credits for the intensification of land uses due to rezoning are discussed in the Rebuild or Expansions section of this chapter.

PROGRAMMING REVENUES WITH THE CIP
The City should maintain its Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to adequately plan for future infrastructure needs. The CIP should commit all projected fee revenues and fund balances to specific projects that are necessary to serve growth. The CIP provides documentation necessary for the City to hold funds in a project account for longer than five years if necessary to collect sufficient funds to complete a project. In addition, the CIP is required per AB 602. This report outlines the projects that are to be funded with the fee program and forms the basis of the CIP.

Table A-1 in Appendix A will also serve as the City’s CIP list as required by AB 602, which includes the facilities discussed in the previous chapters. The City will use the CIP facilities identified in Appendix A to guide their five -year Capital Improvement Plan budget based upon City needs and t iming of securing adequate revenue and will update the date in the CIP and the City’s AB 1600 annual and five-year reports.

FEE REPORTING
Assembly Bill No. 1483, which became effective January 1, 2020, requires that public agencies make the following information available on their website:

1. A current schedule of fees, exactions, and affordability requirements imposed by the city, county, or special district, including any dependent special districts, of the city or county applicable to a proposed housing development project, which shall be pr esented in a manner that clearly identifies the fees, exactions, and affordability requirements that apply to each parcel.

2. All zoning ordinances and development standards, which shall specify the zoning, design, and development standards that apply to each parcel.

3. The list of information required to be compiled pursuant to Section 65940.

4. The current and five previous annual fee reports or the current and five previous annual financial reports, that were required pursuant to AB 1600.

5. An archive of impact fee nexus studies, cost of service studies, or equivalent, conducted by the city, county, or special district on or after January 1, 2018.

ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a second unit that is attached or detached from the primary dwelling unit as defined by California Government Code Sections 66310 -66342. In accordance with Assembly Bill No. 881 approved on October 9, 2019, City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fees will not be charged for an ADU that is less than 750 square feet. For an ADU that is 750 square feet or larger, the ADU will be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. Since the City of Manhattan Beach Impact Fees residential fees are now being charged on a square footage basis, ADU fee s will be calculated by multiplying the City of Manhattan Beach Impact primary dwelling unit fee amount by the ADU’s square footage. ADUs will not be assessed a storm drainage fee unless the parcel’s impervious surface exceeds the impervious factor for the parcels land use as the impervious surface area is accounted for in the per acre fee.

SPECIALIZED DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
The fees in this report may not apply to specialized development projects such as golf courses, cemeteries, sports stadium, or other specialized land uses. For specialized development projects the City will review the development’s impacts to determine the applicable fees. The fee rates presented in this Nexus Study may be reduced, exempted, or waived under certain circumstances as determined by the City. Any exemption or reduction in fees will be based on the City’s independent analysis and review of the subject property.

Some developments may include more than one land use type. In these cases, the fee is calculated separately for each land use. The City has the discretion to impose the fees based on the specific aspects of a proposed development regardless of zoning. The fee imposed should be based on the land use type that most closely represents the impacts of the development.
