Agenda Item No. WS1.
BACKGROUND
History
A development impact fee (DIF) is a monetary exaction charged by the local government to a developer in connection with the implementation of an approved development project. A DIF can vary widely from one jurisdiction to the next because of differing facility needs. With the passage of Assembly Bill 1600, known as the 1987 Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Section 66000 and following), the State of California recognized the burden on local governments from the rising costs associated with needed infrastructure and population increases associated with new development. The Mitigation Fee Act secured a system for identifying and collecting specific fees, dedications, reservations, and other exactions that local jurisdictions could regularly impose when properties are developed.
In October 1998, the City of Murrieta (City) first established the DIF program to fund improvements to public facilities and purchase equipment related to providing essential services based on the demands created by new growth and development. The City prepared a Master Facility Plan to identify the equipment and infrastructure needs required to meet the service demand of the increased residential population and business community (service population).
In 2013, the City Council approved an Agreement with Willdan to prepare an updated Master Facility Plan and an updated Development Impact Fee study. The Master Facility Plan reflects the combination of equipment, infrastructure, and facilities needed to support the build-out of the General Plan and Parks Master Plan.
In 2015, the City Council approved an Agreement with Willdan Financial Services to conduct a Master Facilities Plan Update and Development Impact Fee Calculation Study, and staff presented a status update on Development Impact Fees to the City Council in a Workshop in April 2016. Two public hearings were held, one in June and one in July. On July 19, 2016, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 16-3602, which replaced Resolution No. 98-612 and established a new Development Impact Fee Schedule. A phased-in approach was used for residential and office development for those issued entitlement no later than December 31, 2016.
Current Study
A Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Study was advertised on February 10, 2023, with a submittal date of March 7, 2023. Willdan was awarded the agreement to conduct a new Development Impact Fee Nexus study to ensure the City complied with new legislation, Assembly Bill 602 (AB 602).
With the addition of AB 602, Government Code Sections 65940.1 and 66019 were amended and Section 66016.5 was added. AB 602 went into effect on January 1, 2022, and requires a nexus impact fee study to be completed at a minimum every eight years and new requirements for specific justifications on how fees are calculated. AB 602 also requires the use of a square footage-based fee for residential rather than the current per-unit charge.
The following infrastructure categories are included in the DIF program:
• Law Enforcement
• Fire Protection
• Streets, Minor Bridges and Culverts
• Traffic Signals
• Storm Drainage
• General Facilities

Agenda Item No. WS1.
• Park Facilities
• Community Centers
• Public Library
Development Impact Fees are imposed one-time, on new residential and non-residential development only.
According to the California Mitigation Fee Act, local agencies must prepare and consider a study documenting the following when adopting impact fees:
• Identify the purpose of the fee;
• Identify the use of fee revenues;
• Determine a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development paying the fee;
• Determine a reasonable relationship between the need for the fee and the type of development paying the fee; and
• Determine a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the facility attributable to development paying the fee.
Methodology
In preparing for this Nexus Study, each department reviewed its facility, equipment, and service level needs to determine comparable facility and service needs for the anticipated population growth and related new development.
The Nexus Study uses one of three approaches to calculate facility standards and allocate the costs of planned facilities to accommodate growth in compliance with the Mitigation Fee Act requirements for each fee category included in the study.
The existing inventory approach is based on a facility standard derived from the City’sexisting level of facilities and existing demand for services. This approach results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing development. This approach calculated the Fire Protection, Law Enforcement, General Facilities, Parks, and Community Center facilities fees.
The planned facilities approach allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facilities that serve new development to the increased demand associated with new development. This approach is appropriate when specific planned facilities that only benefit new development can be identified or when the specific share of facilities benefiting new development can be identified. This approach was used to calculate the Streets, Minor Bridges and Culverts, Storm Drainage facilities, and Traffic Signal fees.
The system plan approach is based on a master facility plan in situations where specific needed facilities serve both existing and new development. This approach allocates existing and planned facilities across existing and new development to determine new development’sfair share of facility needs. This approach is used when it is not possible to differentiate the benefits of new facilities between new and existing development. This approach was used to calculate the Library facilities fees.
Recommendation
Since the last study was conducted in 2016, various components of the DIF schedule do not accurately reflect the current construction costs for planned facilities. Between 2016 and 2023, fees for the DIF program were never adjusted to account for inflation-related construction cost increases, which, according to the CA Construction Cost Index, increased by 47.7%.
Staff proposes a combination of approaches to reflect best the facility needs and services required by the City CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 2/15/2024Page 3 of 5

Agenda Item No. WS1.
Staff proposes a combination of approaches to reflect best the facility needs and services required by the City for future growth. Attachment 3 Table E.1 represents the new proposed fees.
For comparison purposes, Attachment 3 Table E.2 shows the current DIF amounts for prototypical square footage for each of the five category types, potential phasing options for Industrial and Office categories, and a representative example of fees from two neighboring jurisdictions.
Staff is also proposing two provisions in addition to the phasing option shown above. First, is a grandfathering provision whereby projects with applications that have been “deemed complete” before the effective date of the new, proposed fees, will be able to pay the fee in effect at the time their application was “deemed complete.” The second provision, if approved, would be used instead of phasing for Industrial and Office projects. Although the details still need to be worked out, Industrial and Office projects would be eligible for a sliding scale fee reduction based on the number of jobs they bring to Murrieta. This incentive-based provision would encourage job-creating projects to locate in Murrieta.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Adopting a nexus study and fee schedules does not constitute a “project”under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4) because these actions involve the creation of a government funding mechanism which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment.
Conclusion
Development Impact fees are a vital funding source needed to ensure that new development pays its fair share of infrastructure and facility costs on a pay-as-you-go basis to avoid creating impacts on the existing City’s infrastructure, service levels, and residents.
Note that even with collecting these fees, other funding will be required to fund the improvements identified in the Nexus Study fully. This is due to impact mitigation fees not covering the costs of existing deficiencies - only the additional impacts on the new development system.
It is important to note that the City Council can adopt a lower fee than the maximum fee calculated in the Nexus Study. However, doing so would mean that the General Fund would need to subsidize the remaining costs to construct needed facilities and maintain service levels. In other words, the residents of the City of Murrieta would be paying for a portion of the costs rather than the development that is generating the impact.
The detailed presentation of the results of the nexus study and the impact fees proposed here will assist in discussing the appropriateness of the recommended fees. The City’sconsultants will be available to the City Council for any questions regarding the study and fee update.
FISCAL IMPACT
The work completed by our consultants was previously approved and budgeted in the FY 2022/23 operating budget. The proposed development impact fee schedule update will increase projected revenues within the multiple DIF funds.

Executive Summary
This report summarizes an analysis of development impact fees needed to support future development in The C ity of Murrieta through 2035. It is the City’s intent that the costs representing future development’s share of public facilities and capital improvements be imposed on that development in the form of a development impact fee, also known as a public facilities fee. The public facilities and improvements included in th is analysis ar e divided into the fee categories listed below:
• Law Enforcement
• Fire Protection
• Streets, Minor Bridges & Culverts
• Traffic Signals
• Storm Drainage
• General Facilities
• Park Facilities
• Community Centers
• Public Library
Background and Study Objectives
The primary policy object ive of a development imp act fee program is to ensure that new development pays the capital costs associated with growth. The primary purpose of this repor t is to calculate and present fees that will enable the City to expand its inventory of public facilities, as new development creates increases in service demands.
The City imposes public facilities fees under authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act), contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq . Th is report provides the necessary findin gs required by the Act for adoption of the fees presented in the f ee schedules contained herein.
All development impact fee-funded capital projects should be programmed through the City’s five- year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Using a CIP c an help the City identify and direct its fee revenue to public facilities proj ects that will accommodate future growth. By pro gramming fe e revenues to specific capital projects, the City can help ensure a reasonable relationship between new development and the use of fee revenues as required by the Mitigation Fee Act.
Facility Standards and Costs
There are three approaches typically used to calculate facilities standards and allocate the costs of planned facilities to accommodate growth in compliance with t he Mitigation F ee Act requirements.
The existing inventory approach is based on a facility standard derived from the City’s existing level of facilities and existing demand for servic es. This approach results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing development. This approach is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available. Only the initial facilities to be funded with fe es are identified in the fee study. Futu re facilities to serve growth will be identified thr ough the City’s annual capit al improvement pl an and budget pro cess and/or completion of a new facil ity master plan. This approach is to calculate th e law enforcement, fire protection, parks, community center and general facilities fees in this report.
The planned facilities approach allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facilities that serve new development to the i ncrease in demand associated with new development. This approach is appropriate when s pecific planned facilities that only benefit new development can be identified, or when the specific share of facilities b enefiting new development can be identified . Examples include street improvements to avoid deficient levels of service or a sewer trunk line extension to 18 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 5 a previously undeveloped area. This approach is used for the streets, minor bridges & culverts, traffic signal, and storm drain facility fees.
The system plan approach is bas ed on a master facility plan in situations where the needed facilities serve both existing and new development. This approach alloca tes existing and planned facilities across existing and n ew developme nt to determ ine new development’s fair share of facility needs. Th is approach is used when it is not possible to d ifferentiate the benefits of new facilities between new and existing development. Often the system plan is based on increasing facility standards , so the City must fi nd non -impact fee revenue sources to fund existing development’s fair share of planned fac ilities. This approach is us ed for the public library facility fees in this report.
Use of Fee Revenues
The Mitigation Fee Act requires that this analysis “Identify the use to which the fee is to be put . If the use is financing public f acilities, the facilities shall be identified. That ide ntification may, but need not, be made by r eference to a capital improvement plan as s pecified in Section 65403 or 66002, may be made in applicable gener al or specific plan requirements, or may be made in other public documents that i dentify the public fac ilities for wh ich the f ee is charged. ”1 Each chapter in this report identifi es the appropriate use of impact fee revenu es for each parti cular impact fee category.
Impact fee revenue must be spent on ne w facilities or expansion of current facilities to serve new development. Facilities can be generally defined as capital acquisitio n items wi th a useful life greater than five years. Impact f ee revenue can b e spent on capital facilities to serve new development, including but not limited to land acquisition, construction of buildings, infrastructure, the acq uisition of vehicles or equ ipment, inform ation technology, software li censes and equipment.

7 Other Funding Needed
Impact fees may only fund the share o f public facilit ies related to new development in Murrieta.
They may not be used to fund the share of facility needs generated by existing development or by development outside of the City. A s shown in Table E.2, approximately $ 104.5 million in additional funding wil l be needed to complete the facility projects the City currently p lans to develop. The “ Additional Funding Require d” column shows non-impact fee funding required to fund a share of the improvements partially funded by impact fees. Non-fee f unding is needed because these facilities are needed partially to remedy existing deficiencies and partly to accommodate new development.
The City will need to develop alternative funding sources to fund existing development’s share of the planned facilities. Potential s ources of revenue include but are not limited to existing or new general fund revenues, existing or new taxes, special assessments, and grants.

1. Introduction
This report presen ts an anal ysis of the need for public facilities to accommod ate new development in the City of Murrieta. This chapter provides background for the study and expl ains the study approach under the following sections:
• Public Facilities Financing in California;
• Study Objectives;
• Fee Program Maintenance;
• Study Methodology; and,
• Organization of the Report.
Public Facilities Financing in California
The changing fiscal landscape in California du ring the pas t 45 years ha s stead ily undercut the financial capacity of local governments to fund infrastructure. Four dominant trends stand out:
• The passage of a string of tax limitation measures, starting with Proposition 13 in 1978 and continuing through the passage of Proposition 218 in 1996; • Declining popular support for bond measures to finance infrastructure for the next generation of residents and businesses;
• Unfunded state and federal mandates; and,
• Steep reductions in federal and state assistance.
Faced with these trends, many cities and counties have had to adopt a policy of “growth pays its own way.” This poli cy shift s the burden of funding infrastructure expansion from exist ing ratepayers and taxpayers onto new devel opment. This funding shift has been acco mplished primarily through the imposition of assessments, special taxes, and development impact fees also known as public facilities fees. Assessments and special taxes requ ire the appro val of property owners and are appropriate when the funded facilities are directly related to the developing property. Development impact fees, on the other hand, are an approp riate fu nding source for facilities that benefit all dev elopment ju risdiction-wide. Development impact fees n eed only a majority vote of the legislative body for adoption.
Study Objectives
The primary policy objective of a public facilities fee program is to ensur e that new devel opment pays the capital costs associated w ith growth. Policy LU-1.7 of the City’s General Plan states “Ensure necessary capital improvements are in place prior to new development or completed concurrently.” Policy LU-1.8 of the City’s General Plan states “Ensure that fiscal impacts associated with growth and change are evaluated to ensure the City’s ability to provide vital services is not compromised. ” The primary purpose of this repo rt is to update the City’s impact fees based on the most current available facility plans and growth projections. The proposed fees will enable the City to expand its inventory of publ ic facilities as new development leads to increases in service demands. This report supports the General Plan policies stated above.
The City imposes public facilities fees under authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act) , contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq. Th is repo rt provide s the necessary findings required by the Act for adoption of the fees prese nted in t he fee sched ules presented in this report.
22 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update
9 Murrieta is forecast to significant growth through this study’s pl anning horizon o f 2035. This growth will crea te an increas e in demand fo r public services and the fac ilities required to del iver them. Given t he revenue c hallenges described above, Murrieta has decided t o use a development impact fee program to ensure that new development funds the share of facility costs associated with growth. This report makes use of the most current available growth forecasts and the City’s most recently adopted Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to update the City’s existing fee program to ensure that the fee p rogram accurately repr esents the facility needs resulting from new development.
Fee Program Maintenance
Once a fee program has been adopted it must be properly maintained to ensure that the revenue collected adequately funds the facilities needed by new development. To avoid c ollecting inadequate revenue, the inventories of existing facilities and costs for planned facilities must be updated periodically for inflation, and the fees recalculated to reflect the higher costs. The use of established indices fo r each facility includ ed in the invent ories (land, building s, and equipment), such as the Engineering News-Record, is neces sary to accu rately adjust the impact fees. For a list of recommended indices, see Chapter 13.
While fee updates using inflation indices are appropriate for annual or periodic updates to ensure that fee revenues ke ep up with inc reases in the costs of public facilities, it is recommended t o conduct more extens ive update s of the fee documentation and calculation (such as this study) when significant new data on growth forecasts and/or facility plans become available. For further detail on fee program implementation, see Chapter 13.
Study Methodology
Development impact fees are calculated to fund the cost of facilities required to accommodate growth. The six steps followed in this development impact fee study include:
1. Estimate existi ng development and future gro wth: Identify a base year for existing development and a growth forecast that reflects increased demand for public facilities;
2. Identify facility standards: Determine the f acility standards used to plan for new and expanded facilities;
3. Determine facilities required to serve new development: Estimate the total amount of planned facilities, and identify the share required to accommodate new development;
4. Determine the cost of facilities required to serve new development: Estimate the total amount and the share of the cost of planned faciliti es required to accommodate new development;
5. Calculate fee schedule: Allocate facilities costs per unit of new development to calculate the development impact fee schedule; and
6. Identify alternati ve funding requirements: Determine if any non-fee funding is required to complete projects.
The key public policy issue in development impact fee studies is the identification of faci lity standards (step #2, above). Facility standards docume nt a reasonabl e relationship between new development and the need for new f acilities. Standards ensure that new development does not fund deficiencies associated with existing development. 23 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update
10 Types of Facility Standards
There are three separate components of facility standards:
Demand standards determine the amou nt of fac ilities required to accommodate growth, for example, park acres per thousand residents, square feet of library space per capita, or gallons of water per day. Demand standards may also reflect a level of service such as the vehicle volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio used in traffic planning. Design sta ndards determine how a facility should be designed to meet expected demand, for example, par k improvement requirements and technology infrastructure for City office space. Design standards are typically not explicitly evaluated as part of an impact fee analysis but can have a significant impact on the cost of facilities. Our approach incorporates the cost of pla nned facilities built to satisfy the City’s facility design standards.
Cost standards are an alternate method for det ermining the amount o f faciliti es required to accommodate growth based on facility costs per unit of demand. Cost standards are useful when demand standards were not explicitly deve loped for the facility planning process. Cost standards also enable different types of facilities to be analyzed based on a single measure (cost or value ) and are useful when different facilities are funded by a si ngle fee program. Examples include facili ty costs per capita, cost per vehicle trip, or cost per gallon of water per day.
New Development Facility Needs and Costs
A number of approaches are used to identify facility needs and costs to ser ve new development.
This is o ften a two -step process: (1) identify total facility needs, and (2) all ocate to new development its fair share of those needs.
There a re three common methods for determining new development’s fair share of planned facilities costs: the existing inventory method, the planned facilities method, and the system plan method. The formula used by each approach and the adva ntages and d isadvantages of each method is summarized below:
Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory meth od allocates costs based on th e ratio of existing facilities to demand from existing development as follows:
Current Value of Existing Facilities
Existing Development Demand
Under this method new development will fund the e xpansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition the existing inv entory method results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing developmen t. This method is often used when a long - range plan for n ew facilities is not availa ble. Only the initial faciliti es to be funded with fees are identified in the fee study. Future facilities to serve growth are identified through an annual capital improvement plan and budge t process, possibly aft er completion of a new facility master plan.
This approach is to calculate th e law enforcement, fire protection, parks, community center and general facilities fees in this report.
Planned Facilities Method
The planned fac ilities method allocates costs based on the r atio of planned facility costs to demand from new development as follows:
Cost of Planned Facilities
New Development Demand = $/unit of demand
= $/unit of demand
24 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update
11 This method is appropriate when planned facilities will entirely serve new development, or when a fair share allocation of planned facilities to new development can be estimated. An example of the former is a Wastewater trunk line extension to a pre viously undeveloped area. An example of the latter is a portion of a roadway that has been identified as necessary to mitigate the im pact from new development through traffic modeling analysis. Under this method new development will fund the ex pansion of facilities at the st andards used in th e a pplicable planning documents . This approach is used for the streets, minor bridges & culverts, traffic signal, and storm drain facility fees.
System Plan Method
This method calculates the fee ba sed on the value of existing facilitie s plus the cost of planned facilities, divided by demand from existing plus new development:
Value of Existing Facilities + Cost of Planned Facilities Existing + New Development Demand
This method is useful when planned faciliti es need to be analy zed as part of a system that benefits both existing an d new development. It is difficult, for exam ple, to a llocate a ne w f ire station solely to new development when that station will operate as part of an integrated syste m of fire stations that together achieve the desired level of service.
The system plan method ensures that new d evelopment does n ot pay for e xisting deficiencies.
Often facility standards based on po licies such as those found in General Plans are higher t han the existing facility standards . This method enables the calculation of the existing deficiency required to bring existing develo pment up to the polic y-based standard. The local agency must secure non-fee funding for that portion of planned facilities required to corr ect the deficiency to ensure that new development receiv es the level of service funded by the imp act fee . This approach is used for the public library facility fees in this report.
Organization of the Report
The d etermination of a pu blic facilities fee begins with the sel ection of a planning ho rizon a nd development of growth pr ojections for population and employment. These projections are used throughout the analysis of different facility categories and are summarized in Chapter 2.
Chapters 3 through 11 identify fa cility stan dards and planned fa cilities, allocate the cost of planned facilities between new development and other development, and id entify the appropriate development impact fee for each of the following facility categories:
• Law Enforcement
• Fire Protection
• Streets, Minor Bridges & Culverts
• Traffic Signals
• Storm Drainage
• General Facilities
• Park Facilities
• Community Centers
• Public Library
Chapter 12 describes how this study complies with the requirements of AB 602.
Chapter 13 details the procedures that the City must follow when implementing a developm ent impact fee program. Impact fee program adoption procedures are found in California Government Code Sections 66016 through 66018.
The five statutor y f indings r equired for adoption of the proposed public facilities fees in accordance with the Mitigation Fee Act are documented in Chapter 14. = $/unit of demand

2. Growth Forecasts
Growth projections are us ed as indicators of demand to determine facility n eeds and allocate those needs between existing and new development. This chapter explains the source for the growth projections used in this study based on a 2023 base year and a planning horizon of 2035.
Estimates of existing development and pr ojections of future growth ar e critical assumptions used throughout this report. These estimates are used as follows:
• The estimate of existing development in 2023 is used as an indicator of existing facility demand and to determine existing facility standards. • The e stimate of total deve lopment a t the 2035 planning horizon is used as an indicator of future demand to determine total facil ities needed to accom modate growth and remedy existing facility deficiencies, if any. • Estimates of growth from 2023 through 2035 are used to (1) allocate facility costs between new development and existing development, and (2) estimate total fee revenues.
The demand for public facilities is b ased on the service population , dwelling units or nonresidential development creating the need for the facilities.
Land Use Types
To ensure a reasonable relationship between each fee and the type of development paying the fee, growth proje ctions distingui sh betwee n different land use types. The land use types that impact fees have been calculated for are defined below. • Residential: All residential dwelling units. Fees charged per square foot of living space.
• Commercial: All commercial, retail, educational, and hotel/motel development. • Office: All general, professional, and medical office development. • Industrial: All manufacturing, warehousing, and other industrial development.
Some developments may in clude more than one land use typ e, such as a mixed-use development with both residential and commercial uses. Another similar situation would be a warehousing fac ility that contains office space. In those cases, the facilities fee would be calculated separately for each land use type included within the building.
The City has the discretion to determine which land us e t ype best reflects a developmen t project’s characteristics for purposes of imposing an impact fee and may adjust fees for special or unique uses to reflect the impact characteristics of the use.
Existing and Future Development
Table 2.1 shows th e estima ted number of residents, dwelling units, employees, a nd building square feet in Murrieta, both in 2023 and in 2035. The base year estimates of residents and dwelling units comes from t he California Department of Finance . The population projection for 2035 was calculated based on the total single family and multifamily units identified in Table 3-15 of the 2035 General Plan Land Use Element, multiplied by estimates of 3.25 residents per single family unit and 2.07 residents per multifamily u nit calculated from the 2022 American Community Survey data for Murrieta.

14 Occupant Densities
All fees in this report are calculated based on dwelling uni ts or building s quare feet. Occupant density assumptions ensure a reasonable relationship between the size of a development project, the increase in service population associated with the project, and the amount of the fee.
Occupant densities (residents p er dwelling unit or workers per building square foot) are the most appropriate characteristics to use for most impact fees. The fee i mposed should be based on the land use type that most closely represents the probable occupant density of the development.
The average occ upant density factor used in this report is shown in Table 2.2. The residential density factors are based on data for Murrieta from the 2022 U.S. Census’ American Community Survey (Tables B25024 and B25033). Table B25024 provides total housing units by type of unit Table B25033 documents the total population residing in occupied housing by type of unit. Total residents are divided by total units to estimate average persons per dwelling unit Citywide by type of unit . The nonresidential occupancy factors are calculated based on data from the City ’s General Plan EIR.

3. Law Enforcement Facilities
The purpose of the law enforcement impact fee is to fund the law enforcement facilities needed to serve new development. Murrieta currently provides law enforcement services from a single law enforcement station. A maximum justified fee is presented based on the existing standard of law enforcement facilities per capita.
Service Population
Law enforcement facilities serve both residents and busine sses. Therefore, demand for services and associated facilities ar e based on the City ’s service population including residents and workers.
Table 3.1 shows the existing and futu re p rojected service population for law enforcement facilities. To calculate the service population for law enforcement facilities, residents are weighted at 1.00. The u se of a worker demand fa ctor o f 1.99 for w orkers in Murrieta is bas ed on an analysis of police department call data , categorized by land use, in the City from 2022. Annual calls for service at residential land uses were divided by t he residential p opulation to yield an annual calls-per-capita factor. Dividing annual calls for service at nonresidential areas by annual employment in the City yielded a comparable per-capita factor. The ratio of the worker per c apita factor to the resident per capita factor is t he worker demand factor used in the analysis. See Appendix Table A.1 for a detailed worker weighting analysis.

Existing Facility Inventory
This study uses the existing standard methodology to calculate fees for law enforcement facilities.
Law enforcement services in the City of Murrieta are presently based out of one main facility.
Table 3.2 summarizes the City’s current inventory of law enforcement land, buildings, and vehicles. The unit cost for the land value assumption of $510,200 per acre was based on an analysis of recent land sales comparisons as reported by Costar since 2021 . Unit c ost assumptions for the replacement cost of buildings were provided by City staff. 29 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 16 Table 3.2: Existing Law Enforcement Facilities Inventory Inventory Unit Cost Value

Table 3.4 expresses the City’s current law enforcement facilities level of se rvice in terms o f an existing cost per capita , by dividing the replacement cost of the City ’s existing facilitie s by the existing service population. The resulting cost per capita drives the fee calculation. The cost per capita is multiplied by the worker weighting factor to determine the cost per worker.

Use of Fee Revenue
The City can u se law enforcement facilities fee revenues for the constr uction or purch ase of buildings, land, and equipment that are part of the system of law enforcement facilities serving new development. A list of preliminary planned facilities is included in Table 3.3.
Fee Revenue Projection
The City plans to use police facilities fee revenue to construct improvements and acquire capital facilities and equipment to add to the system of police facilities to serve new development. Table
3.5 details a pro jection of fee r evenue, ba sed on the servic e population grow th increment identified in Table 3.1. When setting fees to maintain the existing level of service, the resulting fee revenue will fully fund the identified planned facilities, and the City will need to identify additional fa cilities to maintain the level of service as new development add s demand for law enforcement services and facilities through the planning horizon. 31 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 18 Table 3.5: Revenue Projection - Existing Standard

Sources: Tables 3.1, 3.3 and 3.4.
Fee Schedule
Table 3.6 shows the maximum justified law enforcement facilities fee schedule. The cost per capita is converted to a fee per unit of new development based on dwe lling unit and employment densities (persons per dwelling unit or employees per 1,000 square feet of nonresidential building space). The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee incl udes a two percent (2%) adm inistrative cha rge to fund cos ts that include: a standard overhea d charge a pplied to all City programs for legal, accounting, a nd other departmental and administrative support, and fee program administrative costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated publ ic repo rting, and fee justificatio n analyses.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, two percent of the base fee adequately covers the cost of fee p rogram admin istration. The administrativ e charge should be reviewed and adjusted d uring comprehen sive im pact fee u pdates to ensure t hat revenu e g enerated from the charge sufficiently covers, but does not exc eed, the administrative costs a ssociated with the fee program.

4. Fire Protection Facilities
The purpose of the fire impact fee is to fund the fire facilities needed to serve ne w development.
A maximum justified fee schedule is presented based on the system plan standard of fire facilities per capita.
Service Population
Fire facilit ies are used to provide services to both residents and businesses. The servi ce population used to d etermine the dema nd for fire facilities includes both residents and workers.
Table 4.1 shows the current fire facilities service population and the estimated service population at the planning horizon of 2035.
To calculate the service population for fire protection facilities, r esidents a re weighted at 1.00.
The use of a worker demand fa ctor of 4.31 for workers in Murrieta is based on an analysis of fire department call data, categorized by land use, in the City from 2022. Average annual incidents at residential land uses were divided by t he residential p opulation to yield an average annual incidents-per-capita factor. Dividing average annual incidents at nonresidential areas by average annual employment in the City yielded a comparable per-capita factor. The ratio of the worker per capita factor to the resident per capita factor is t he worker demand factor used in the analysis.
See Appendix Table A.3 for a detailed worker weighting analysis.

Cost Allocation
Table 4.4 expresses the City ’s current fire protection facilities level of serv ice in terms of a n existing cost per capita , by dividing the replacement cost of the City ’s existing facilitie s by the existing service population. The resulting cost per capita drives the fee calculation. The cost per capita is multiplied by the worker weighting factor to determine the cost per worker. 36 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 23 Table 4.4: Existing Level of Service

Fee Revenue Projection
The City plans to use fire protection facilities fee revenue to construct improvements and acquire capital facil ities an d equipment to add to the system of fire protection facilities to serve new development. Table 4.5 details a pro jection of fee r evenue, ba sed on the servic e population growth increment ident ified in Table 4.1. When setting fees to maintain the existing level of service, the resulting fee revenue will fully fund the identified planned facilities, and the City will need to identify additional fa cilities to maintain the level of service as new development add s demand for fire protection services and facilities through the planning horizon.

Sources: Tables 4.1, 4.3 and 4.4.
Fee Schedule
Table 4.6 shows the maximum justified fire protection facilities fee schedule. The cost per capita is converted t o a fee per unit of new development based on dwe lling unit and employment densities (persons per dwelling unit or employees per 1,000 square feet of nonresidential building space). The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee incl udes a two percent (2%) adm inistrative cha rge to fund cos ts that include: a standard overhea d charge a pplied to all City programs for legal, accounting, a nd other departmental and administrative support, and fee program administrative costs including revenue 37 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 24 collection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated publ ic repo rting, and fee justificatio n analyses.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, two percent of the base fee adequately covers the cost of fee p rogram admin istration. The administrativ e charge should be reviewed and adjusted d uring comprehen sive im pact fee u pdates to ensure t hat revenu e g enerated from the charge sufficiently covers, but does not exc eed, the administrative costs a ssociated with the fee program.

5. Streets, Minor Bridges &
Culverts
This chapter summarizes an analysis of the need for streets, minor bridges, and culverts, to accommodate new development. The chapter documents a reasonable relationship between new development and the impact fee for funding of these facilities.
Trip Demand
The need for street im provements is based on the trip demand placed on the system by development. A reasona ble measure of demand is the n umber of average daily vehicle trips, adjusted for the type of trip. Vehicle trip generation rates are a reasonable measure of demand on the City’s sys tem of street improvements across all modes because alt ernate modes (transi t, bicycle, pedestrian) often substitute for vehicle trips.
The two types of trips adjustments made to trip ge neration rates to calculate trip demand are described below:
• Pass-by trips are deducted from the trip generation rate. Pass -by tr ips are intermediates stops between an origin and a final destination that require n o diversion from the route, such as stopping to get gas on the way to work. • The trip generation rate is adjusted by the average length of trips for a specific land use category compared to the average length of all tr ips on the street system.
Table 5.1 shows the c alculation of trip demand factors b y land u se category based on the adjustments described above. Data is based on extensive and detailed trip surveys conducted in the San Diego region by the San Diego Associat ion of Governments. The surveys provide one of the most comprehensive databases av ailable of trip generation rates, pass -by trips factors, a nd average trip length for a w ide range of lan d uses. Though urban development patterns differ between San Diego and the City of Murrieta, the use of this data is appr opriate as a means of allocating t rips acr oss multiple land use categories. It shoul d be noted that the projection s of current and future trip generation in this report are based on data specific to the City of Murrieta.

Level of Service
This impact fee study is an update to the City ’s 2016 development impact fee update study. The streets, mi nor bridges, and culverts fee in that analysis was based on the circu lation element policy of maintaining an average daily traffic (ADT) Level of Service (LOS) “C” or better for all roadway segments. This update relies on the same transportation modeling that was used in the 2016 study. Segments that have been completed have been removed from the project list. The remaining segments are needed to ensure that new development does not degrade the LOS to unacceptable levels. In some cases, even with mitigation the LOS cannot be fully mitigated ba ck to an acceptable LOS.
Projects that were allocated 100% to new development in the prior study are still allocated 100% to the impact fee. Projects that are needed to serve both existing demand and future demand are allocated to the impact fee based on new development ’s share of total trips at the planning horizon (47.3%) identified in Table 5.2.

30 Project Costs
Cost estimates and the allocated to new development are summarized in Table 5.4. The project costs from the 2016 study were prepared in 2013. Those costs were adjusted for inflation to 2024 using the Engineering News Record ’s Construction Cost Index. The table al so shows the allocation to new development. The majority of the projects included in the fee program were not deficient at the ti me the fee program was created. For projects that were not deficient as of the last analysis, the full cost of the improvements is needed to remedy unacc eptable level of service decreases caused by the increase in trips from new development. For projects that were deficient at th at time, an the mitigation does not allow the LOS to degrade fu rther, the full cost of the improvement is allocated to new development. For projects that the only improvement that could be made increases the LOS, a proportional share of responsibility is allocated to new development and to existing development.

34 Fee per Trip Demand Unit
Every impact fee consists of a dollar amount , or the cost of projects that can be funded by a fee, divided by a measure of development. In this case, all fees are first calculated as a cost p er trip demand unit. Then these amounts are translated into housing unit ( cost per dwelling unit) and employment space (cost per 1,000 building square feet) by multiplying the cost per trip by th e trip generation rate for each land use category. These amounts become the fee schedule.
Table 5.5 calculates the cost the cost per trip demand unit by dividing the project c osts attributable to new development, net of existing fund balances, from Table 5.4, by the total growth in trips calculated in Table 5.2.

Net Costs 286,035,438$
Growth in Daily Trips 502,238
Cost per Trip 570$
Sources: Tables 5.2 and 5.4; Willdan Financial Services.
Fee Schedule
Table 5.6 shows the maximum justified arterial streets fee schedule. The maximum justified fees are based on the costs per trip shown in Table 5.5. The cost per trip is multiplied by the trip demand factors in Table 5.1 to determine a fee per unit of new development. The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee includes a two percent ( 2%) administr ative charg e to fund costs that include: a standard ove rhead cha rge applied to all City programs for lega l, acco unting, and ot her departmental and administrative support, and fee program adm inistrative costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost a ccounting, mandated public repo rting, and fee justifica tion analyses.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, two percent of the base fee adequ ately covers the cost of fee program administration. The administrative charg e should be reviewed and adjusted dur ing comprehensive im pact fee up dates to ensu re that r evenue generated from th e charge sufficiently covers, but does not exceed, the administra tive costs associated with the fee program.

6. Traffic Signals
This chapt er summarizes an analysis of the need for traffic signals to accommodate new development. The chapter documents a reasonable relatio nship between new development and the impact fee for funding of these facilities. Note that the trip demand factors calcula ted in Table
5.1, and the trip growth projections calculated in Table 5.2 will also be used in this chapter.
Project Costs and Cost Allocation
Intersection locations needed to serve n ew development are summarized in Table 6.1. The table also shows the allocation to new development. None of the interse ctions included in the fee program were deficient at the ti me the fee program was created. For projects that were not deficient as of the last analysis, the full cost of the improvements is needed to remedy LOS decreases caused by the increase in trips fr om new development. For proje cts where the only improvement that could be made increases the LOS, a proportional share of responsibility is allocated to new development and to existing development.
Project costs are summarized in Table 6.2. The project costs from the 2016 study were prepared in 2013. Those costs were adjusted for inflation to 2024 using the Engineering News Record ’s Construction Cost Index. The allocation to new development from Table 6.1 is multiplied by the cost estimate to determine the costs allocated to new development. 50 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update

7. Storm Drain Facilities
This chapter summarizes an analys is of the need fo r storm drain facilities to accommoda te growth with in the C ity of Pomona. This projects and asso ciated costs in this c hapter were identified it the City’s prior impact fee study . This chapter documents a reasonable rela tionship between new developmen t and a st orm drain fee to f und storm drain f acilities that serve new development.
Storm Drain Demand
Most new development generates storm water ru noff that must be controlled through storm drain facilities by increasing the amount of land that is impervi ous to precipitation. Table 7.1 shows the calculation of equivalent d welling unit (EDU) demand factors based on impe rvious surface coefficient by la nd u se category. The average impervious surf ace assumptions are consistent with the City’s prior impact fee study. EDU factors relate demand for storm drain facilities in terms of the demand created by a single-family dwelling unit.

Planned Facilities
Table 7.3 identifies the planned storm dra in facilities to be funde d by the fee. The new storm drain facilities were all identified in the City ’s prior impact fee study . Projects that have been completed since that study was published were rem oved from the project list. The project costs from that study were estimated in 2013 and are adjusted here for inflation to 2023 dollars using the Engineering News record’s Construction Cost Index. Since drainage projects will benefit both existing development an d new development, capacity expanding pr ojects a re allocated to new development based on new development’s share of storm drain demand at the planning horizon. 56 43

Fee Schedule
The maximum justified fee for sto rm drain facilities is shown in Table 7.5. The City can adopt any fee up to this amount. The cost per EDU from Table 7.4 is converted to a fee per u nit of new development b ased on the EDU factors shown in Table 7.1. The fee per average sized single 57 44
family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee includes a two percent (2.0%) admin istrative charge to fund c osts tha t include: a standard overhead charge applied to all Cit y programs for legal, ac counting, and other departmental and administrative support, and fee program administrative costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounting and mandated public reporting.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, two percent of the base fee adequately covers the cost of fee program administr ation. The administrative charg e should be reviewed and adjusted during comprehensive impact fee up dates to ensure that revenue generate d from the charge sufficiently covers, but does not exceed, t he administrative costs associated wi th the fee program.

8. General Facilities
The purpose of the fee is to ensure that new deve lopment funds its fair share of general facilities.
A fee s chedule is presented based on th e existing facilities standard of general facilities in the City of Murrieta to ensure that new development provides adequate funding to meet its needs.
Service Population
General facilities serve b oth residents and businesses. Therefore, demand fo r services and associated facilities are based on the City’s service population including residents and workers.
Table 8.1 shows the existing and future projecte d service population for general facilities. While specific data is not available to estima te the actual ratio of demand per res ident to demand by businesses (per worker ) for this servic e, it is reasonable to a ssume that demand for these services is less for one employee compared to one resident, because nonresiden tial buildings are typically oc cupied less i ntensively than dwell ing units. T he 0. 31-weighting fac tor for wor kers is based on a 40-hour workweek divided by the total number of non-work hours in a week (128) and reflects the degr ee to which nonresidential development yields a lesser dema nd for general facilities.

Existing Facility Inventory
This stud y uses the existing standard methodology to calculate fees for general facilities. The general facilities inventory is comprised of several properties: new city hall, the Murrieta Innovation Center (MIC), Los Alamos Hills office and the City Maintenance Yard . Additionally, the City owns vehicles and equipment . The unit cost for the land value assumption of $510,200 per acre was based on an analysis of recent land sales comparison s as reported by Costar since 2021. City staff provided the replacement costs for the owned buildings, vehicles and equipment.
In total, the City owns approximately $41.1 million worth of general facilities. 59 46

Cost Allocation
Table 8.4 shows the calculation of the existing cost per capi ta facili ty standard by dividing the value of th e existing facili ties inventory by the ex isting service population. The resulting cos t per capita is the basis of the impact fee. Funding facilities at this level will ensure that as development occurs, new d evelopment will contribu te to general facilities at the same st andard that existing development has contributed thus far. Using the existing standard methodology does not result in existing deficiencies.

Fee Revenue Projection
The City plans to use general facilities fee revenue to construct impr ovements to add to the system of general and administrative f acilities to serve ne w development. Table 8.5 details a projection of fee revenue, bas ed on the service populatio n growth increment identified in Table
8.1. The City will have to identify and additional $6.5 million worth of general facilities beyond the preliminary list of planned facilities in Table 8.3 to ensure that the existing standard is maintained through the planning horizon as new development increases demand for general facilities. 61 48

Fee Schedule
Table 8.6 shows the maximum justified general facilities fee schedule. The cost per capita is converted to a fee per unit of new development based on dwelling unit and employment densities (persons per dwelling unit o r employees per 1,000 square feet of nonresiden tial building sp ace).
The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee incl udes a t wo percent (2%) administrative ch arge to f und costs that in clude: a standard overhead charge applied to City programs for legal, accounting, and other departmental and administrative support, and fee program administrative c osts incl uding revenue c ollection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated public reporting, and fee justification analyses.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, tw o percent of the base fee adequately covers the cost of fee progr am administratio n. The administrative ch arge sho uld be reviewed and adjusted duri ng compre hensive impact fe e updates to en sure t hat revenue generate d from the charge sufficiently covers, but does not e xceed, the administrat ive costs associated with the fee program.

Park Facilities Unit Costs
Table 9.4 displays the unit costs nec essary to acquire and improve park land in Murrieta. The buildings, equipment and special facilities cost per acre from Table 9.3 is added to the cost of an acre of standard par k improvements to determine the total improvement cost per acre. The cost per acre of standard park improvements from the City’s prior impact fee study was adjusted for inflation into current dollars using the Engineering News Record ’s Construction Cost Index. The unit cost for the land value assumption of $510,200 per acre was based on an analysis of recent land sales comparisons as reported by Costar since 2021 . In t otal, this analysis assumes that it costs $775,439 to acquire and develop an acre of park land in Murrieta. 67 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 54 Table 9.4: Park Facilities Unit Costs

Park Facility Standards
Park facility s tandards establish a reasonable relat ionship between new development and the need for expanded park land and park facilities. Information regarding the City’s existing inventory of existing parks facilities was obtained from City staff.
The most c ommon measure in c alculating new development’s demand for parks is the ratio of park acres per resident. In ge neral, facility standards may be based on the Mitigation Fee Act (using a city’s existing inventory of park land and park facilities), or an adopte d policy standard contained in a master facility plan or general plan. Facility standards may also be based on a land 68 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 55 dedication standard established by the Quimby Act .2 In this case, the City will use the Mitigation Fee Act to impose park impact fees for development within the City.
Mitigation Fee Act
The Mitigation Fee Act does not dic tate use of a particular type or level of fac ility standard for public facilities fees. To comply with the findings required under the law, facility standards must not burden new development with any cost ass ociated w ith facility deficiencies attributable to existing development.3 In this case, the fees will be set at a 5.0 acre per 1,000 resident standard for park land acquisition, consistent with the C ity’s General Plan. The park improvements component of the fees will be set at the existing improved park land standard.
City of Murrieta Park Facilities Standards
Table 9.6 shows the existing standard s of park land and park improvements per 1,000 residents.
In total the City has an existing park land standard of 5.01 acres per 1,000 residents of land, and
4.60 acres per 1,000 residents of park improvements. The fees will be set at a 5.0 acre per 1,000 resident standard for park land acquisition, consistent with the C ity’s General Plan. The park improvements component of the fees will be set at the existing improved park land standard.

Use of Fee Revenue
The City plans to use park facilities fee revenue to purchase park land or construct improvements to add to the system of park facilities that serves new development. The City may only use impact fee revenue to provide facilities and i ntensify usage of existing facilities needed to serve new development.
Fee Schedule
To calculate fees by land use type, the investment in park fa cilities is determined on a per capita basis for both land acquisition and improvement. These cost factors (shown in Table 9.8) are cost per capita base d on the unit cost estim ates and facili ty standards. The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
Table 9.9 shows the maximum justified park f acilities fee schedule based on the analysis described above. The total fee includ es an administrative charge to fund costs th at include: (1) legal, accounting , and ot her administrat ive support and (2) impact fee program administrative costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounti ng, mandated public reporting, and fee justification analyses.

Planned Facilities
The C ity has planned several recreation and community center facilities to serve new development. Incl uded in t he pl ans are both expansions to ex isting facil ities and th e new construction of facilities. The City has identified $69.4 million of recreation and community center facilities to serve existing and new development net of existing fund balances.

Fee Revenue Projection
The City pl ans t o use recreation and community cente r facilities fee revenue to construct improvements to add to the system of recreation and co mmunity center fa cilities that serves existing and new development. The list of facilities to be funded by the fee is detailed above in Table 10.3. Table 10.5 details a projection of fee revenu e, based on the service pop ulation growth increment identified in Table 10.1. The projected fee revenue will not fully fun d the identified planned facilities. However, so long as the fee revenue is spent of capacity expanding facilities that serve new development, then the fee revenue will have been spent appropriately.
The City plans to update its parks and recreation facilities master plan in the sort term, at which point it should consider revising this impact fee to accommodate the facility plans identified in that document.

Fee Schedule
Table 10.6 shows the maximum justified recreation facilities fee schedule. The cost per capita is converted to a fee per unit of new develo pment based on dwellin g unit densities (residents per dwelling unit). The fee per average sized single family, and multifamily dwelling unit is converted into a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per dwelling unit by the assumed average square footage of each type of unit.
The total fee includes a two -percent (2% ) admi nistrative char ge to fun d costs t hat include: a standard overhead charge applied to City programs for legal, accounting, and other departmental and administrative support, and fee program a dministrative costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated public reporting, and fee justification analyses.
In Willdan’s experience with impact fee programs, two percent of the base fee adequately covers the cost of fee program administration. The administrative charge should be reviewe d and adjusted during comprehensive impact fee updates to ensure that revenue gener ated from th e charge sufficiently covers, but does not exceed, the administrat ive costs associated with the fee program.

12. AB 602 Requirements
On January 1, 2022, new requirements went into effect for California jurisdictions implementing impact fees. Among other c hanges, AB 602 added Section 66016.5 to the Government Code , which set guidelines for impact fee nexus studies. Three k ey requirements from that section which concern the nexus study are reproduced here:
66016.5. (a) (2) When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, a nd include an explan ation of why the new level of service is appropriate.
66016.5. (a) (4) If a ne xus 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.
66016.5. (a) (6) Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.
Compliance with AB 602
The following sections describe this study’s compliance with the new requirements of AB 602. 66016.5. (a) (2) - Level of Service
1. For fees calculated under the exi sting stan dard methodology, the fees are calculated such that new development funds facilities at the existing level of service. These fee categories are: law enforcement, fire protection, parks, community centers and general facilities. The existing level service in terms of the existing facility investment per capita is shown in each corresponding chapter.
2. For fees calculated under the planned fa cilities methodology, the fees are calculated to ensure that the level of ser vice does not fall to unacceptable levels. The fees calculated under this approach are the streets, minor bridges and culverts fee, the traffic signals fee, and the storm drain facilities fees. Impact fees charged under thi s program will serve to ensure that the level of service will not fall to unacceptable levels.
3. For the fees calculated under the sy stem standard m ethodology, the maximum justified fees represent an increase in the f acility level of ser vice. The fees calculated under this methodology are the library facilities fees. The increased level of service is required to fund new development ’s fair share of facilities identifi ed and by City. New develo pment will not fund the entirety of the increase in level of service, rather, it will fund a share of the increased level of serv ice represented b y the planned facilities. The City will h ave to fund existing development’s share of the inc rease level of service through any other funding source. The lib rary facilities fee chapter includes tables that show the existin g level of service and future level of service in terms of facility investment per capita. 66016.5.

66016.5. (a) (6) – Capital Improvement Plan
The Capital Improvement Plan for this nexus study is comprised of the identified planned facilities within each facility fee chapter. Planned facilities identified in this document are sourced from the City’s current adopted CIP and other City documents. Adoption of this nexus study would approve the planned facilities identified herein as the Capital Improvement Plan for this nexus study. 82 69
13. Implementation
Impact Fee Program Adoption Process
Impact fee program adop tion procedures are foun d in the California Go vernment Code section 66016. Adoption of an impact fee program requires the City Council to follow certain procedures including holding a public hearing. Data, such as an impact fee report, must be made available at least 10 days prior to the public hearing. The City’s legal counsel should be consulted for an y other procedural r equirements as well as advi ce regard ing adoption of an enabling ordinance and/or a resolution. After adoption there is a mandatory 60 -day waiting period before the fees go into effect.
Inflation Adjustment
The City can keep its impact fee program up to date by periodically adjusting the fees for inflation.
Such adjustments should be c ompleted regularly to ensure that new development will fully fund its share of needed facilities. We recommend that the California Construction Cost In dex (CCCI) be used for adjusting fees for inflation.
While fee upda tes using inflation indices are approp riate for periodic updates to ensure that fee revenues keep up with increases in the costs of public facilities, the City will also need to conduct more extensive updates of the fee documentation and calculation (such as this study) when significant new data on growth forecasts and/or facility plans become available.
Reporting Requirements
The City will comply with the annual and five -year reporting req uirements of the Mitigation Fee Act. For facilities to be funded by a combination of public fees and other rev enues, identification of the so urce and amount of these non-fee revenues is essential. Identification of the timing of receipt of other revenues to fund the facilities is also important.
Programming Revenues and Projects with the CIP
The City maintains a five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to plan for future infrastructure needs. The CIP identifie s costs and phasing for speci fic capital pro jects. The use of the CIP in this man ner documents a reasonable relationship between new development and the use of those revenues.
The City may decide to al ter the scope of the planned projects or to substitute new projects as long as those new projects continue to r epresent an expa nsion of the City’s facilities. If the total cost of facilities varies from the total cost used as a ba sis for t he fees, the City should consider revising the fees accordingly.
Reimbursements
For some facility ca tegories, parti cularly p ark facilities, dev elopers occasionally dedicate park land and construct f acilities in lieu of payi ng the developmen t impact fee. If a developer buil ds park land that exceeds the development’s share of needed facilities, that developer should be reimbursed for t he amount of fa cilities created above and beyond that development’s i mpact.
However, we reco mmend that the City’ reimburse the d ifference based on a) the costs identified in the most recent CIP, and b) at the time that the City would be building the improvement had the 83 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 70 development not occurred. By following these guidelines , the City will not be un fairly burdened with unanticipated costs.
84 71
14. Mitigation Fee Act Findings
Public facilities fees are one -time fees typically paid when a building permit is issu ed a nd imposed on dev elopment projects by local agencies responsible f or regulating land use (cities and counties). To guide the wid espread imposition of public facilities fees the State Legislature adopted the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act) with As sembly Bi ll 1 600 in 198 7 and s ubsequent amendments. The Act, contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 through 66025, establishes requirements on local agencies for the imposition and administration of fee programs.
The Act requires local agencies to document five findings when adopting a fee.
The five statutory finding s required for adoption of the public facilit ies fees documented in this report are presented in this chapter and supported in detail by the preceding chapters . All statutory references are to the Act.
Purpose of Fee
Identify the purpose of the fee (§66001(a)(1) of the Act).
Development impact fees are desi gned to e nsure that new development will not b urden the existing service population with the cost of facilities required to accommoda te g rowth. The purpose of the fees proposed by this report is to provide a funding source from new development for capital improvements to serv e that development. The fees advance a legitimate City interest by enabling the City to provide public facilities to new development.
Use of Fee Revenues
Identify the use to which the fees will be put. If the use is financing facilities, the facilities shall be identified. That identification may, but need not, be made by reference to a capital improvement plan as specified in §65403 or §66002, may be made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or may be made in other public documents that identify the facilities for which the fees are charged (§66001(a)(2) of the Act).
Fees proposed in this report, if enacted by the City, would be used to fund expanded facilities to serve new development. Facilities funded by these fees are designated to be located within the City’s sphere of influence. Fees addressed in this report have been identified by the City to be restricted to funding the following facility categories: streets, minor bridges & culverts, traffic signals, fire protection facilities, law enforcement facilities, parks, library facilities, recreation facilities, general facilities, corporation yard facilities, and storm drainage facilities.
Benefit Relationship
Determine the reasonable relationship between the fees' use and the type of development project on which the fees are imposed (§66001(a)(3) of the Act).
The City will restrict fee revenue to the acquisition of land, construction of facilities and buildings, and pur chase of related equipmen t, furni shings, v ehicles, and services used to serv e new development. Facilities funded by the fees are expect ed to provide a citywide network of facilities accessible to the additional residents and workers associated with new dev elopment. Under the Act, fees are not intended to fund planned facilities needed to correct existing deficiencies. Thus, a reasonable relationship can be shown be tween th e use o f fee r evenue and the new development residential and non-residential use classifications that will pay the fees.
Burden Relationship
Determine the reasonable relationship between the need for the public facilities and 85 City of Murrieta Development Impact Fee Study Update 72 the types of development on which the fees are imposed (§66001(a)(4) of the Act).
Facilities need is based on a fac ility standard that repr esents the demand g enerated by new development fo r those facilities. For each facility category, demand is measured by a single facility standard that can be applied across land use types to ensure a reasonabl e relationship to the type of development. For most facility categories service population standards are calculated based upon the number of residents associat ed with residential develop ment and the number of workers associated with non -residential development. To calculate a s ingle, per capita standar d, one worker is we ighted less than one resident based on an analysis of the relative use demand between residential and non-residential development. For transportation related facilities, the cost standard is calculated per trip. For storm drainage facilities th e standard is calculated per measure of impervious surface.
The standards used to identify growth needs are also used to determine if planne d facilities will partially serve the existing service population by correctin g existing deficiencies. This approach ensures that new dev elopment will only be responsible for its fair share of planned facilities, and that the fees w ill not unfairly burden new development with the cost of facilities associated with serving the existing service population.
Chapter 2, Growth Forecasts provides a description of how se rvice popu lation and g rowth forecasts are calculated. Facility standa rds are des cribed in th e Facility Standards sections of each facility category chapter.
Proportionality
Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fees amount and the cost of the facilities or portion of the facilities attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed (§66001(b) of the Act).
The reasonable relationship between each facilities fee for a specific new development project and the cost of the facil ities attri butable to that project is based on the estimated new development growth the proje ct will accommodate. Fees for a specific project are based on the project’s size. Larger new development projects can result in a higher se rvice population resulting in higher fee reve nue than smaller projects in the s ame land use c lassification. Thus, th e fees ensure a reasonable relationship between a specific new development project a nd the cost of the facilities attributable to that project.
See Chapter 2, Grow th Forecasts and Unit Costs, or the Service Population sections in eac h facility c ategory cha pter for a description of how service populations or other factors are determined for different types of land uses. See the Fee Schedule section of each facility category chapter for a presentation of the proposed facilities fees. 86 A-1

Development Impact Fee Update Study
City of Murrieta
February 20, 2024
159
What is a Development Impact Fee?
1One-time charge
Imposed at building permit stage
Imposed on all development projects
within a defined geographic area
Funds facilities to serve new development
160
Mitigation Fee Act Findings (Govt. Code §66001)
• Key findings
– Need: Development ≈ Need for facilities
– Benefit: Development ≈ Use of revenue
– Rough proportionality: Fee amount ≈ development’s share of facility costs
• Other findings
– Purpose of fee
– Use of fee revenue
161
Requires local jurisdictions to make certain
information available on website:
Current impact fee schedule
Nexus studies
Annual AB1600 reports
Five-Year AB1600 reports
Changes to impact fee adoption process:
Prior to adoption of development fees,
an impact fee nexus study needs to be
adopted with 30 days notice
Technical changes:
Residential fees should be charged
per square foot, unless findings are
supported that justify another
metric
Large jurisdictions shall adopt a
capital improvement plan as a part
of the nexus study
Nexus study should identify level of
service
If fees are increasing, review the
assumptions of the original nexus
study and evaluate the amount of
fees collected under the original fee
