STAFF REPORT
Date: October 15, 2025 Agenda Item:

6.A.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Joshua Calhoun, Finance Director
Prepared By: Joshua Calhoun, Finance Director
Department: Finance
SUBJECT:

Consider Adoption Resolution No. 2025-67 Establishing Certain New User Fees and Increasing Certain Existing User Fees for Various Services and Acceptance of Comprehensive Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 2025-67, updating and adjusting the City’s General Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2025-26; and
2) Receive and file the Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan SUMMARY:

The City has completed a Comprehensive Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan for City Council’s review. The last comprehensive fee study was completed six years ago with several fee and cost allocation plan updates occurring since 2019. The comprehensive study is in line with the City Council’s goal of assuring financial stability by identifying new revenue sources and continuing prudent financial management. The Comprehensive Fee Study, with City Council’s recommendations, will be included in the Proposed Fee Schedule.

BACKGROUND:

User fees and charges are collected to recover some or all costs incurred in providing a specific service from which one or more individuals obtain a benefit. It is a best practice for cities to perform a comprehensive update every 5 years and review user fee and charge schedules annually. The periodic review of fees provides a consistent realignment of the fee structures when compared to the cost of providing the services.

Due to changes in the economic environment and the passage of time, an update to the fees was necessary.

City departments have been working with Willdan Financial Services (Willdan), since July 2024 in determining the time required to provide certain services as well as

Page 189 of 349 ends

providing measurements for allocation of overhead. City staff was interviewed regarding the processes and time to complete the service associated with the fee as well as service provided on citywide processes. The result of the interviews is the proposed Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan.

City staff conducted the following Study session and meeting which are recorded and on the City of Norco’s website:
•August 6, 2025: 4 pm – 6 pm Cost Allocation Plan & Fee Study Review At the Study session, the City Council has reviewed each service and suggested recovery rate to determine how much of each service should be recovered through fees and how much should be subsidized through the City’s tax dollars. The review provided direction to staff regarding the cost recovery of services associated with each fee.

Willdan used three methods of analysis for calculating fees:

Cost Study Method (Standard Unit Cost Build-up Approach):

This technique is for estimating the actual labor and material costs for providing a unit of service. Effective for services where staff time is predictable and identifiable at the outset. Costs are derived from staff interviews, records review, and time and materials analysis.

Program Cost Approach:

Applied when standard cost build-up is impractical due to limited or variable data.

Considers market factors and policy concerns. Costs are allocated across a user base to determine per-applicant costs. Typical applications include valuation-based fees and recreation programs.

Valuation Based Fees:

Uses the valuation of an improvement to estimate the amount of effort required by City staff to complete a service. This approach is often used for user fees in Building Department, where project size and cost are directly related to the amount of effort needed for review and inspection. This approach ensures that fees can adjust as project sizes increase.

The total cost of each service is primarily based on the Fully Burdened Hourly Rates for City personnel directly involved in providing the services. The rates include not only employee salary and benefits, but direct departmental costs, and indirect costs of central services support.

Analysis of each department found that many services are currently below the full cost of providing them and recommend the following changes:

Animal Control:
•An increase to 30 fees
•Five new fees would be added
•Remaining fees would remain as currently set

Page 190 of 349 ends

Public Works:
•An increase to 26 fees
•Two fees would decrease
•Two new fees will be added
•28 fees would remain as currently set
•Average change would be an increase of 31%
Sheriff:
•An increase to three fees
•One fee would decrease
•Three new fees, Handicap Placer Signoff, and two vehicle violations, would be added •40 fees would remain as currently set
•Average change would be an increase of 0.28%
Water Utility:
•An increase to six fees
•Two fees would decrease
•14 fees would remain as currently set
• Average change would be an increase of 1%
Attachment C, “Proposed Fee Schedule”, includes the changes, clarifications, additions and deletions included within the User Fee Study.

COST ALLOCATION PLAN: The Cost Allocation Plan provides a review of overhead associated with general city processes to cost centers. The same evaluative process applied to the User Fee Study was applied to the Cost Allocation process where tasks were quantified by department and function to determine the overhead cost to the cost center. Overhead charges will be updated and reflected in the FY 2025-26 budget.

Attachment B, "User Fee Study", includes the Cost Allocation Analysis.

Page 192 of 349 ends

FISCAL IMPACT:

The new fee structure would result in increased revenues in the General Fund based on actual activity in the fiscal year and result in mitigating cost for services.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is consistent with Strategic Direction No. 3 - “Economic Development and Financial Stability: Assure financial stability by identifying new revenue sources and continuing prudent financial management.”

1 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Executive Summary
The City of Norco engaged Willdan Financial Services (Willdan) to determine the full costs incurred by the City to support the various activities for which the City charges user fees. Due to the complexity and the breadth of performing a comprehensive review of fees, Willdan employed a variety of fee methodologies to identify the full costs of individual fee and program activities. This report and the appendices herein identify 100% full cost recovery for City services. Appendix C details the full cost and suggested fees as determined through discussion with departmental staff. The recommended fees identified herein are either at or less than full cost recovery.

2 Comprehensive User Fee Study
User Fee Background
Background
As part of a general cost recovery strategy, local governments adopt user fees to fund programs and services that provide limited or no direct benefit to the community as a whole (“User Fees”). As cities struggle to maintain levels of service and variability of demand, they have become increasingly aware of subsidies provided by the General Fund and have implemented cost-recovery targets. To the extent that governments use general tax monies to provide individuals with private benefits, and not require them to pay the full cost of the service (and, therefore, receive a subsidy), the government is limiting funds that may be available to provide other community-wide benefits. In effect, the government is using community funds to pay for private benefits. Unlike most revenue sources, cities have more control over the level of user fees they charge to recover costs, or the subsidies they can institute.

Fees in California are required to conform to the statutory requirements of the California Constitution, Proposition 218, Proposition 26, and the California Code of Regulations. The Code also requires that the City Council adopt fees by either ordinance or resolution, and that any fees in excess of the estimated total cost of rendering the related services must be approved by a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting because the charge would be considered a tax and not a fee. There are no fees suggested to be set above the cost of service and as such a public vote is not required.

California User Fee History
Before Proposition 13, in times of fiscal shortages, California cities were able to raise property taxes, which funded everything from police and recreation to development-related services. However, this situation changed with the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978.

Proposition 13 established the era of revenue limitation in California local government. In subsequent years, the state saw a series of additional limitations to local government revenues. Proposition 4 (1979) defined the difference between a tax and a fee: a fee can be no greater than the cost of providing the service; and Proposition 218 (1996) further limited the imposition of taxes for certain classes of fees. As a result, cities were required to secure a supermajority vote in order to enact or increase taxes. Due to the thresholds needed to increase local taxes, cities have less control and very few successful options for new revenues.

The State of California took a series of actions in the 1990’s and 2000’s to improve the State’s fiscal situation, at the expense of local governments. In 2004-05, the Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (“ERAF”) take-away of property taxes and the reduction of Vehicle License Fees further reduced local tax revenues.

In addition, on November 2, 2010, California voters approved Proposition 26, the “Stop Hidden Taxes Initiative”, which is aimed at defining “regulatory fees” as a special tax rather than a fee, thus requiring approval by two-thirds vote of local voters. These regulatory fees are typically intended to mitigate the societal and environmental impacts of a business or person’s activities. Proposition 26 contains seven categories of exceptions. The fees analyzed as part of a User Fee study typically fall under categories one through five consisting of charges for specific benefits, government service, regulatory need, for use of government property, or a fine/penalty.

3 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Additional Policy Considerations
State regulations require that municipalities update their fee schedules to reflect the actual costs of certain public services primarily benefiting users. User Fees recover costs associated with the provision of specific services benefiting the user, thereby typically reducing the use of General Fund monies for such purposes.

In addition to collecting the direct cost of labor and materials associated with processing and administering user services, it is common for local governments to recover reasonable support costs. Support costs are those costs relating to a local government’s central service departments that are allocable to the local government’s operating departments. Central services support cost allocations were incorporated using the resulting indirect overhead percentages determined through the City’s Cost Allocation Plan. A Cost Allocation Plan identifies the central service functions of the City such as Finance, City Manager, and Human Resources and allocates their cost to the departments and funds of the City that they support. This plan was used in the User Fee study to account for the burden placed upon central services by the operating departments in order to allocate a proportionate share of central service cost through the study.

As labor effort and costs associated with the provision of services fluctuate over time, a significant element in the development of any fee schedule is that it has the flexibility to remain current. Therefore, it is recommended that the City include an inflationary factor in the resolution adopting the fee schedule to allow the City to annually increase or decrease the fees by changes in a pre-approved inflationary index, as described below. However, such inflationary increases shall not exceed the reasonable estimated cost of providing the services each year.

The City may employ many different inflationary factors. The most commonly used inflator is some form of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as it is widely well known and accepted. A similar inflator is the implicit price deflator for GDP, which is much like the CPI except that while the CPI is based on the same “basket” of goods and services every year, the price deflators’ “basket” can change year to year. Since the primary factor for the cost of a City’s services is usually the costs of the personnel involved, tying an inflationary factor that connects more directly to the personnel costs can also be suitable if there is a clear method, or current practice of obtaining said factor.

Each City should use an inflator that they believe works the best for their specific situation and needs but cannot rely solely on the CPI increase as it is incumbent upon each agency to ensure the amount of the fees charged does not exceeds the reasonable estimated costs of providing the services. It is also recommended that the City perform this internal review annually with a comprehensive review of services and fees performed every five years, which would include adding, amending, or removing fees for programs/services.

4 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Study Objective
As the City of Norco seeks to efficiently manage limited resources and adequately respond to increased service demands, it needs a variety of tools. A User Fee Study provides assurance that the City has the best information and the best resources available to make sound decisions, fairly and legitimately set fees, maintain compliance with state law and local policies, and meet the needs of the City administration and its constituency. Given the limitations on raising revenue in local government, the City recognizes that a User Fee Study is a very cost-effective way to understand the total cost of services and identify potential fee deficiencies. Essentially, a User Fee is a payment for a requested service provided by a local government that primarily benefits an individual or group.

The total cost of each service included in this analysis is based on the full cost of providing City services, including direct salaries and benefits of City staff, direct departmental costs, and indirect costs from central service support. This study determines the full cost recovery fee for the City to provide each service; however, each fee is set at the City’s discretion, up to 100% of the total cost, as specified in this report.

The principal goal of the study was to help the City determine the full cost of the services that the City provides. In addition, Willdan established a series of additional objectives including:
 Developing a rational basis for setting fees
 Identifying subsidy amount, if applicable, of each fee in the model  Ensuring compliance with State law
 Developing an updatable and comprehensive list of fees  Maintaining accordance with City policies and goals
The study results will help the City better understand its true costs of providing services and may serve as a basis for making informed policy decisions regarding the most appropriate fees, if any, to collect from individuals and organizations that require individualized services from the City.

Scope of the Study
The scope of this study encompasses a review and calculation of the user fees charged by the following Norco departments and fee groups:
 Building & Safety
 City Clerk
 Code Enforcement
 Communications
 Community Services
 Animal Control
 Facilities Maintenance
 Finance
 Business License
 Fire
 Planning
 Public Works
 Water Utility
 Sheriff

5 Comprehensive User Fee Study
The study involved the identification of existing and potential new fees, fee schedule restructuring, data collection and analysis, orientation and consultation, quality control, communication and presentations, and calculation of individual service costs (fees) or program cost recovery levels.

Aim of the Report
The User Fee Study focused on the cost of City services, as City staff currently provide them at existing, known, or reasonably anticipated service and staff level needs. This report provides a summary of the study results, and a general description of the approach and methods Willdan and City staff used to determine the recommended fee schedule. The report is not intended to document all of the numerous discussions throughout the process, nor is it intended to provide an influential dissertation on the qualities of the utilized tools, techniques, or alternative approaches.

6 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Project Approach and Methodology
Conceptual Approach
The basic concept of a User Fee Study is to determine the “reasonable cost” of each service provided by the City for which it charges a user fee. The full cost of providing a service may not necessarily become the City’s fee, but it serves as the objective basis as to the maximum amount that may be collected.

The standard fee limitation established in California law for such fees is the “estimated, reasonable cost” principle. In order to maintain compliance with the letter and spirit of this standard, every component of the fee study process included a related review. The use of budget figures, time estimates, and improvement valuation clearly indicates reliance upon estimates for some data.

Fully Burdened Hourly Rates
The total cost of each service included in this analysis is primarily based on the Fully Burdened Hourly Rates (FBHRs) that were determined for City personnel directly involved in providing services. The FBHRs include not only personnel salary and benefits (see Appendix B), but also any costs that are reasonably ascribable to personnel. The cost elements that are included in the calculation of fully burdened rates are:
 Salaries & benefits of personnel involved
 Operating costs applicable to fee operations
 Departmental support, supervision, and administration overhead  Indirect City-wide overhead costs calculated through the Cost Allocation Plan An important factor in determining the fully burdened rate is in the calculation of productive hours for personnel. This calculation takes the available workable hours in a year of 2,080 and adjusts this figure to 1,650 productive or billable hours to account for calculated or anticipated hours’ employees are involved in non-billable activities such as paid vacation, sick leave, holidays, and other considerations as necessary.

Dividing the full cost, including overhead, of a position by the number of productive hours provides the FBHR.

The FBHRs are then used in conjunction with time estimates, when appropriate for how a service is provided, to calculate a fee’s cost based on the personnel and the amount of their time that is involved in providing each service.

Summary Steps of the Study
The process of the study is straightforward and simple in concept. The following list provides a summary of the study process steps:

Allowable Costs
This report identifies three types of costs that, when combined, constitute the fully burdened cost of a service (Appendix A). Costs are defined as
direct labor, including salary and benefits,
departmental overhead costs, and the City’s
central services overhead, where
departmental and central service overhead
costs constitute support costs. These cost
types are defined as follows:
 Direct Labor (Personnel Costs): The
costs related to staff salaries for
time spent directly on fee-related
services.
 Departmental Overhead: A
proportional allocation of
departmental overhead costs,
including operation costs such as
supplies and materials that are necessary for the department to function.  Central Services Overhead: These costs, as provided via the City’s Cost Allocation Plan, represent services provided by those Central Services Departments whose primary function is to support other City departments.

Methodology
The three methods of analysis for calculating fees used in this report are the:

Case Study Method (Standard Unit Cost Build-Up Approach): This approach estimates the actual labor and material costs associated with providing a unit of service to a single user. This analysis is suitable when City staff time requirements do not vary dramatically for a service, or for special projects where the time and cost requirements are easy to identify at the project’s outset. Further, the method is effective in instances when a staff member from one department assists on an application, service or permit for another department on an as-needed basis. Costs are estimated based upon interviews with City staff regarding the time typically spent on tasks, a review of available records, and a time and materials analysis.

Program Cost Approach: In some instances, the underlying data is not available or varies widely, leaving a standard unit cost build-up approach impractical. In addition, market factors and policy concerns (as opposed to actual costs) tend to influence rental based fee levels more than other types of services. Willdan employed a different methodology where appropriate to fit a programs’ needs and goals. Typical programmatic approach cases are valuation-based fees, Recreation programs, and instances where a program cost is divided over the user base to obtain a per applicant cost for shared cost services.

Valuation Based Fees: This manner of collection is used when the valuation of the improvement can be used as a proxy for the amount of effort it would take for City staff to complete the service provided. More specifically, this approach is commonly used for certain User Fees in the Building Division. It is generally accepted that as a project’s size scales up, the cost of the project increases, and the amount of effort needed to review and inspect also increases. Using a valuation-based fees provides for a system that can adjust as project sizes scale. Land is not included in the valuation.

Quality Control/Quality Assurance
All study components are interrelated, thus flawed data at any step in the process will cause the ultimate results to be inconsistent and unsound. The elements of our Quality Control process for User Fee calculations include:
 Involvement of knowledgeable City staff
 Clear instructions and guidance to City staff
 Reasonableness tests and validation
 Internal and external reviews
 Cross-checking
Reasons for cost increases/decreases over current fees
Within the fee tables in Appendix C, the differences are identified between the full costs calculated through the study and the fee levels currently in effect. The reasons for differences between the two can arise from a number of possible factors including:

Page 207 of 349 ends

9 Comprehensive User Fee Study
 Previous fee levels may have been set at levels less than full cost intentionally, based on policy decisions
 Position staffing levels, seniority, and the positions that complete fee and service activity may vary from when the previous costs were calculated
 Personnel and materials costs could have increased at levels that differed from any inflationary factors used to increase fees since the last study
 Changes in processes and procedures within a department, or the City as a whole  Changes in the demand for services in a City may have also changed the staffing or cost structure of departments over time
City Staff Contributions
As part of the study process, Willdan received tremendous support and cooperation from City staff, which contributed and reviewed a variety of components to the study, including:
 Budget and other cost data
 Staffing structures
 Fee and service structures, organization, and descriptions  Direct work hours (billable/non-billable)
 Time estimates to complete work tasks
 Review of draft results and other documentation
A User Fee Study requires significant involvement of the managers and line staff from the departments on top of their existing workloads and competing priorities. The contributions from City staff were critical to this study. We would like to express our appreciation to the City and its staff for their assistance, professionalism, positive attitudes, helpful suggestions, responsiveness, and overall cooperation.

Cost Recovery
The cost recovery models, by department/division fee type, are presented in detail in Appendix C. Full cost recovery is determined by summing the estimated amount of time each position (in increments of minutes or hours) spends to render a service. Time estimates for each service rendered were obtained through interviews conducted with City staff for each department/division fee included in the study. The resulting cost recovery amount represents the total cost of providing each service. The City’s current fee being charged for each service, if applicable, is provided in this section, as well, for reference.

It is important to note that the time data used to determine the amount of time each employee spends assisting in the provision of the services listed on the fee schedule is essential in identifying the total cost of providing each service and will differ from City to City depending on staffing, positions involved, experience of staff, the use of consultants, and the policies and procedures in place for each City.

Specifically, in providing services, a number of employees are often involved in various aspects of the process, spending anywhere from a few minutes to several hours on the service.

The primary goal of this study was to identify the cost of City services, to provide information to help the City make informed decisions regarding the actual fee levels and charges. The responsibility of determining the final fee levels is a complicated task. City staff must consider many issues in formulating recommendations, and the City Council must consider those same issues and more in making the final decisions.

City staff assumes the responsibility to develop specific fee level recommendations to present to the City Council. Unfortunately, there are no hard and fast rules to guide the City, since many of the considerations are based on the unique characteristics of the City of Norco, and administrative and political discretion.

However, in setting the level of full cost recovery for each fee, one should consider whether the service solely benefits one end user or the general community.

Subsidization
Recalling the definition of a user fee helps guide decisions regarding subsidization. The general standard is that individuals (or groups) who receive a wholly private benefit should pay 100% of the full cost of the services. In contrast, services that are simply public benefit should be funded entirely by the general fund’s tax dollars. Unfortunately, for the decision makers, some services fall into the range between these two extremes.

Further complicating the decision, opponents of fees often assert that the activities subject to the fees provide economic, cultural, “quality of life,” or other community benefits that exceed the costs to the City, but it is important to distinguish the difference between any purported possible benefits that may be conveyed through the result of activities of the service receiver and the direct benefit being conveyed through the City providing the service to the requestor.

It is recommended the City consider such factors during its deliberations regarding appropriate fee levels.

Page 209 of 349 ends

11 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Of course, subsidization can be an effective public policy tool since it can be used to reduce fees to encourage certain activities (such as to ensure public safety) or allow some people to be able to afford to receive services they otherwise could not at the full cost. In addition, subsidies can be an appropriate and justifiable action, such as to allow citizens to rightfully access services, without overburdensome costs.

Despite the intent, it is important for the City and public to understand that subsidies must be covered by another revenue source, typically the General Fund’s other unrestricted funds.

Impact on Demand (Elasticity)
Economic principles of elasticity suggest that increased costs for services (higher fees) will eventually curtail the demand for the services; whereas lower fees may spark an incentive to utilize the services and encourage certain actions. Either of these conditions may be a desirable effect to the City. However, the level of the fees that would cause demand changes is largely unknown. The cost of service study did not attempt to evaluate the economic or behavioral impacts of higher or lower fees; nevertheless, the City should consider the potential impacts of these issues when deciding on fee levels.

Summary
City staff is recommending setting user fees at suggested fee amounts as detailed in Appendix C. City and departmental goals, City Council priorities, policy initiatives, past performance, implementation issues, and other internal and external factors should influence staff recommendations and City Council decisions. In this case, the proper identification of additional services (new or existing services) and the update to a consistent and comprehensive fee schedule were the primary objectives of this study. City staff has reviewed the full costs and identified the recommended fee levels for consideration by City Council.

The following sections provide background for each department, division, and fee group and the results of this study’s analysis of their fees. For the full list of each fee’s analysis, refer to Appendix C of this report.

12 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Building & Safety
The Building and Safety Division operates under the direction of the Building Official, with two Community Development Technicians and one Building Inspector. This Division is responsible for the administration of the health and safety related codes from the California Building Code. The primary purpose of the Building and Safety Division is to insure the safety, health and accessibility of citizens in the built environment. To ensure this compliance, the Building Division permits new and remodel construction providing plan check services, permitting services, construction inspections, final building inspections, certificate of occupancy inspections, and enforcement on the provisions of the Code for unsafe conditions. The Building Division coordinates the review of building plans with the Fire, Engineering and Planning Divisions, as well as with County and State agencies when necessary.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Building and Safety Division. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of the Building and Safety services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach for fees, whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently not in line with the updated full cost of providing services. Staff is recommending the fees be adjusted as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
 An increase to 22 fees;
 3 fees would decrease;
 1 fee would change from actual cost to a flat fee;
 27 fees would remain as currently set, and;
 the average fee change would be an increase of 16% for current fees.

In addition to the above referenced fees listed under Building, the Building Permit fees are also provided by this division. For the Building Permit fees, valuation is used as a proxy for measuring the effort needed to provide services on a case-by-case basis. This method is an industry standard widely used by other jurisdictions to evaluate the cost of providing service. It is generally understood that the larger and more complex a project is, the more time and effort that is required to provide the service. Project valuation also follows that trend. By using a combination of either project valuation or historical revenue figures along with a multiplier or cost recovery analysis for historical and anticipated future trends, current cost recovery along with variability in charges due to project type and scale is determined. The result of the cost analysis completed for the Building Permit program found that the program is currently operating at 48% cost recovery based on activity level from fiscal year 2022-2025. Staff is recommending that the Building Permit table multiplier be increased to full cost recovery.

City Clerk
The City Clerk serves under the direction of the City Manager. The City Clerk serves as the City’s election official, as the neutral liaison between citizens and government, and as custodian of all official records for the City of Norco ensuring the preservation of the City’s legislative history. The City Clerk’s Office facilitates the preparation of City Council meeting agendas, prepares the minutes for all City Council meetings, administers the City’s records management system, maintains the City’s Municipal Code, ensures that elected and appointed officials comply with filing requirements in accordance with the Political Reform Act, fulfills Public Records Act requests, and oversees official City communications ensuring access to open and transparent government.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the City Clerk. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The services listed under City Clerk services consist of a few flat cost-based fees and others set by the State.

The analysis of the cost-based services relied upon a standard unit cost build-up approach, whereby we determined the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City central services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that current fees are not in line with the full cost of providing service. Staff is recommending the fees remain as currently set as detailed in Appendix C.

The Communications Division also oversees the Community Outreach Program, Merchandise Program, Military Banner Program, Observance Program, Sixth Street Gateway Sign Advertising Program, and the Trademark and Licensing Program.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Communications Division. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of the Communications services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach for fees, whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently just below the full cost of providing services. Staff is recommending the fees be adjusted as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
 An increase to 41 fees;
 7 fees would remain as currently set, and;
 the average fee change would be an increase of 7% for current fees.

Community Services
The Community Services Department provides a variety of special community events and recreational classes throughout the year, along with operating sports programs, a gymnasium, a full-service senior center, and a playschool program. As an equestrian community, the Animal Services division establishes standards for the care and health of animals; provides a safe haven animal shelter; sponsors adoption and placement of animals; and enforces laws to protect the well-being of all animals in the community. The Animal Shelter cares for more than 1,400 impounded animals annually.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Community Services Department. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of most Community Services programs encompassed facility rentals, sports, programs, and other community services. The fee for use for government owned facilities and property can be set discretionally by the City, typically based on past usage characteristics, policy goals, and surrounding jurisdiction comparison. The cost of capital acquisition, maintenance, repair, and upgrade to the City and subsequently the public is offset through rental or use fees. As such these fees should be set using the knowledge of activity use for the facilities, policy desires of the City, and market factors when desirable. It is generally accepted that some Recreation programs provide a measure of public benefit to the residents and City as a whole, and as such is it common for services to bear significant subsidies. In addition, cities generally want to ensure that their programs and services remain affordable to the community at large, and that the programs remain competitive with surrounding jurisdictions. For most fees in Community Services a standard cost of service approach was used, but some of the additional cost considerations above were not included as this is primarily an operational cost analysis study that does not include considerations for capital. The analysis found that the current fees for facility use and services are below the cost of providing them. The analysis also included a cost recovery analysis for Community Services as a whole and it was determined to be operating at around 30% cost recovery. The suggested fees detailed in Appendix C. would result in:
 An increase for 24 fees;
 4 new fees will be added;
 1 fee would decrease, and;
 23 fees would remain as currently set, and;
 the average fee change would be an increase of 18%.

Animal Control
The City of Norco Animal Control Shelter houses stray animals, offers pet adoption services and is devoted to reuniting lost pets with their owners.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Animal Control. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of the Animal Control services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach for fees, excluding penalties, whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently not in line with the updated full cost of providing services. A program cost analysis was also completed to determine historical cost recovery based on provided services. The analysis found that the Animal Control currently has a cost recovery level of 27%. Staff is recommending that the fees be adjusted as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
 An increase to the 30 fees;
 4 new fees will be added;
 All other fees would remain as currently set, and;
 the average fee change would be an increase of 20%.

The strategic plan is reflected in the goals below to enhance the quality of life by improving the facilities and programs for the community, and striving to build on the excellent customer service currently provided to the community.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Facilities and Maintenance Division. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of the Facilities Maintenance services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach for fees, whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently not in line with the updated full cost of providing services. Staff is recommending the fees be adjusted as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
 An increase to 72 fees;
 1 fee will decrease;
 3 new fees will be added;
 2 fees will change from a fully burdened fee to a flat fee;  50 fees would remain as currently set, and;

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Finance Department. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The services listed under Finance services consist of reproduction, collection fee, penalties, livescan , yard sale permit, and the returned check fee set by the State. The analysis of a few of the fees relied upon a standard unit cost build-up approach, whereby we determined the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City central services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently not in line with the updated full cost of providing services. The only changes recommended is to align the returned check fee with Government Code 1719, add a new Credit Card Processing Fee of 2%, and all other fees would remain as currently set as detailed in Appendix C.

The Norco Sheriff’s Office, located within City Hall, is a substation of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office Jurupa Valley Station.

Staffing includes one Sheriff’s Lieutenant assigned as the Police Chief, two Sheriff’s Sergeant who supervise the operation, one city-employed Executive Secretary to perform clerical and administrative tasks as well as help coordinate Norco Citizens Patrol, one part-time city-employed Community Service Officer (CSO) to maintain the public lobby operation from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, eight fulltime Deputy Sheriff’s assigned to patrol providing 48 hours of patrol staffing per 24- hour period, three Deputy Sheriff’s assigned to the Special Enforcement Team (providing crime prevention, event planning, and quality of life), two Deputy Sheriff’s assigned to Traffic Enforcement, one Deputy Sheriff assigned to Motor, and four civilian Community Service Officers to assist patrol operations and logistics.

Cases needing additional investigative work beyond a patrol deputy’s capabilities are referred to detectives at the Jurupa Valley Station. Clerical support, crime analysis, forensics, and property storage are provided through the Jurupa Valley Station.

Norco Citizen’s Patrol volunteers work at least one 4-hour patrol shift per week, direct traffic at collision scenes, assist with traffic control for community events, handle security at crime scenes, and conduct vacation checks and business checks, all of which assist deputies in the field.

Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Sherrif’s Office The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of the Sheriff services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach for fees, excluding violations, whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that fees are currently not in line with the updated full cost of providing services. Staff is recommending the fees be adjusted as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
 An increase to 3 fees;
 1 fee would decrease;
 3 new fee, Handicap Placer Signoff, and 2 vehicle violations, would be added;  40 fees would remain as currently set, and;
 the average fee change would be an increase of 0.28% for current fees.

Appendix A – Total Allowable Cost to be Recovered
Below are the total allowable costs that may be recovered through User Fees; however, only a portion of the total allowable cost is recovered as staff not only works on services related to User Fees, but also works on an array of other City functions during the operational hours of the City. The amounts listed below will not reconcile to City budgets as costs that should not be included in overhead for personnel in the application of determining fully burdened hourly rates were excluded. Examples of these costs are capital, debt, monetary transfers, contract costs, and any other costs that are charged directly to the service requestor.

Appendix B –Fully Burdened Hourly Rates
Below are fully burdened hourly rates of staff positions that provide for the services detailed in Appendix C. The FBHRs were used to determine the full cost of each service. They include the salary and benefit costs for each position as well as all applicable overhead amounts for each position. When a central service department position works on a fee or project in the purview of an operating department, the overhead rates of the operating department (shown in Appendix A) will be applied to that central service positions’ salary and benefit rate for full cost recovery since indirect overhead cost only applies to non-central service functions of the City. For any user fee service request that is outside the scope of the fees detailed in Appendix C, or for services for which there is no fee currently set, the City can charge up to the full cost of the FBHR for personnel involved.

The following tables provide the results of the analysis, resulting full cost recovery amount, and recommended fees. For fees, services, and penalties in which the full cost, existing fee, and suggested fee is listed as “NA”, the amount or percentage was not calculable. This is most common when either the current or the suggested fee includes a variable component that is not comparable on a one-to-one basis, a full cost was not calculated (for penalties, fines, market-based fees, or items not included in the study), or when there is not a current fee amount to compare against.

STAFF REPORT
Date: October 15, 2025 Agenda Item:

6.B.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Alma Robles, Community Development Director
Prepared By: Lacey David, Senior Permit Tech
Department: Community Development
SUBJECT:

Second Reading, Ordinance 1134 (City of Norco): An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Norco, California, adopting the 2025 California Building Standard Codes, to amend Norco Municipal Code Title 15 “Buildings and Construction”. Code Amendment 2025-05
RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the Second Reading of Ordinance 1134, adopting the 2025 California Building Standard Codes, to amend Norco Municipal Code Title 15 “Buildings and Construction”.

Code Amendment 2025-05 .

SUMMARY:

First Reading of Ordinance 1134 was adopted at the September 17, 2025, City Council meeting. The proposed Ordinance will adopt the 2025 California Building Standard Codes and replace the 2022 editions of the California Building Code (CBC), the California Electrical Code (CEC), California Mechanical Code (CMC), California Plumbing Code (CPC), California Residential Code (CRC), the California Green Building Code (CGBC), and California Energy Code (CEC). State law requires that local government enforces these code editions beginning January 1, 2026. In addition, State law allows local governments to amend the California Model Codes, providing the amendments are more restrictive and are necessary in order to provide the highest level of life- safety standards.

BACKGROUND:

Every three years the State of California adopts new construction codes. These codes are reviewed and recommended by the State Building Standards Commission. After the publication of these codes, local governments are mandated by the State of California to adopt these codes, and can also make amendments/modifications that are reasonably necessary so that they address local climatic, geographical, and

Page 331 of 349 ends

topographical features. Modifications must be filed with the California Building Standards Commission in order to become legally effective by January 1, 2026.

Staff along with Willdan Engineering Consultants analyzed these codes and prepared the amendments shown in the attached ordinance.

For reference, a summary of the 2025 California Building Codes changes are contained in attached Ordinance 1134 (Note: adoption of the amendments to the Fire Code will be orchestrated separately through CAL FIRE/Riverside County Fire Department). There are no new amendments/modifications that are necessary to address local climatic, geographical, and topographical that are specific to the City of Norco. Amendments which have been done in the past are not changing and will be carried over into the 2025 cycle.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Purchase of a new set of the 2025 Code books for the City of Norco Building & Safety Division at a cost of $1,600 has been accounted for in the FY 2025-26 Building and Safety Operating Budget.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is consistent with Strategic Plan Direction No. 1 - Public Health, Safety and Wellness: Enhance quality of life by promoting public health, safety and wellness initiatives for all community member.

ORDINANCE NO. 1134

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORCO,
CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING THE 2025 CALIFORNIA BUILDING
STANDARD CODES, TO AMEND NORCO MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE 15
“BUILDINGS AND CONSTRUCTION”. CODE AMENDMENT 2025-05
WHEREAS, THE CITY OF NORCO initiated Code Amendment No. 2025-05, amending Title 15 of the Norco Municipal Code to adopt the 2025 California Building Codes as the Official Building Codes for the City of Norco; and WHEREAS, at the regular meeting on September 17, 2025, the Norco City Council conducted a public hearing and received and considered oral and written testimony concerning the proposed code change; and
WHEREAS, the California Health and Safety Code requires cities and counties to adopt building standards that are consistent with those contained in the California Code of Regulations Title 24; and
WHEREAS, State law allows local governments to amend California Model Codes, providing the amendments are more restrictive and are necessary in order to provide the highest level of life-safety standards and requires that local governments enforce these code editions.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Norco, California, does hereby make the following FINDINGS:

A. California Health & Safety Code, Section 17958.5 and 18941.5 authorizes cities and counties to modify the California Building Standards Code by adopting more restrictive standards and modifications if such standards and modifications are accompanied by express findings that they are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions.

B. The City Council of the City of Norco finds that these local climatic, geological or topographical conditions include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. The City is subject to relatively low amounts of precipitation, very low humidity levels and extremely high temperatures. These climatic conditions are conducive to the spread of drought conditions and fires. For example, during July, August and September, temperatures often exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit. During the same months humidity is usually less than 40% and measurements of less than 10% are not uncommon. These recordings have been documented by the Riverside County Flood Control District and the National Climatic Data Center.

2. The City is subject to extremely strong winds, commonly referred to as "Santa Ana Winds," which can reach speeds of up to 102 miles per hour. In addition, the convergence of the marine shore air flow and the desert air flow create

Page 333 of 349 ends

Ordinance No. 1134 Code Amendment 2025-05 (2025 California Building Codes) Page 2
October 15, 2025
steady winds on a daily basis. Finally, the City is bordered on the south by steep, rugged, brush-covered mountains and parts of the City contain hilly terrain and mounds, which either contribute to or create gusty wind conditions by causing a natural funneling effect and increasing wind speeds over the City.

3. The City is also subject to moderately strong shaking and surface ruptures from seismic activity in the area. The geologic and seismic setting of the City is dominated by the Chino and Elsinore earthquake faults along the southwest portion of the City and a diversity of bedrock and alluvial soils that may significantly affect the intensity of earthquake shaking. The Elsinore fault is located a short distance southwest of the City, while the Chino fault, which is subparallel to the Elsinore fault, is located just inside the City's southwestern boundary. Of the two faults, the Chino fault has the greater potential for surface rupture leading to structural damage of structures in the City. Moreover, the thin alluvial soils found in parts of the City contribute to a moderately high potential for liquefaction in certain areas.

C. The aforementioned geologic and climatic conditions have also contributed to the loss or damage of 450 homes in the Bel Air Fire of 1961; 187 homes in the Chatsworth Fire of 1970; 50 homes in the Mandeville Canyon Fire of 1978; 262 homes in the Anaheim Fire of 1982; 71 homes in the Baldwin Hills Fire of 1985; 33 homes in the Porter Ranch Fire of 1988; 162 homes in the Santa Barbara Fire of 1990; hundreds of acres in the nearby Chino Hills State Park Fire of 1997; the Corona Triangle/Freeway Complex Fire November 15, 2008 burned 318 properties, burned 30,305 plus acres, destroyed 187 single/multiple family homes, damaged 127 homes, damaged or destroyed four commercial properties; 200 acres were burned in the Sierra Pass Fire on September 24, 2013; the Madre Fire which burned 268 acres on September 23, 2013; the Little Fire on August 29, 2013 which burned 97 acres; the Deluz Fire on October 5, 2013 which burned 2236 acres, threatened 300 residents and the Naval Hospital; the Forks Complex Fire October 1, 2013 burned 37,246 acres; the Rim Fire September 3, 2013 which burned 257,314 acres, destroyed 3 commercial buildings and 11 residences; the Thomas Fire on December 4, 2017 burned 281,893 acres, 1063 structures and caused 2 deaths; the Woolsey Fire in November 2018 destroyed 1643 structures and caused 3 deaths; the Palisades Fire in January 2025 destroyed 6,837 structures and caused 12 deaths; and the Eaton Fire in January 2025 destroyed 9418 structures and caused 19 deaths.

D. These fires, as well as the recent Whittier Earthquake of 1987, Northridge Earthquake of 1994, the Chino Hills Earthquake of 2008 and the recent 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquakes have resulted in the tragic loss of lives along with enormous property losses.

E. For practicality and cost reasons, many new structures are built of wood (Type V) construction. The potential for a conflagration exists due to the design and density of current structures.

Page 334 of 349 ends

Ordinance No. 1134 Code Amendment 2025-05 (2025 California Building Codes) Page 3
October 15, 2025
F. Electrical supply and telephone communication failures occur due to high winds as well as other reasons. Water supply pumps and early notification of a fire cannot always be counted on.

G. Based upon the recommendations of the Building Official, the City Council finds that the proposed amendments to the 2025 California Building Standards Code ("amendments") are more restrictive than the standards adopted by the California Building Standards Commission, would decrease the potential incidence of property damage, injury and death due to fires and earthquakes, and are reasonable and necessary to mitigate the aforementioned local climatic, geologic or topographical conditions.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Norco, California, does hereby ordain:

SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
