Jennifer Hernandez, Senior Management Analyst
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 25-12 - UPDATING AND ESTABLISHING USER AND REGULATORY FEES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025/26
Background:
Comprehensive Fee Studies are generally completed every three to five years with the purpose of establishing fees, rates and charges for services, provided that such fees, rates and charges do not exceed the cost of providing said services. The City’s last User and Regulatory Fee Study (“Study”) was completed in May of 2007.
In an effort to accurately, fairly, and reasonably determine the full cost of providing services to the community, the City began the development of an updated Study, which was completed and presented to City Council in March of 2025 for review. The completed Study resulted in an updated User and Regulatory Fee Schedule which accurately identifies fees and charges for services provided at the request of, or on behalf of, a single party as opposed to the public at large.
The Study provides an up-to-date analysis of the City’s current costs of providing fee-related services. This information can be used by City Council to consider potential updates to fees.
User and regulatory fees are set at the direction of City Council at the conclusion of a public hearing to consider adoption of any new fees or adjustments to existing fees.
Analysis
Industry best practices and California statutes are in harmony: User and regulatory fees should be set according to the estimated reasonable cost of service and should bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and/or services provided by the City. Additionally, ongoing review and adjustment of fees provides multiple benefits, including:
City Council April 1, 2025
Resolution No. 25-12 – Adoption of Fees Page No. 2

•Increasing the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all residents and businesses, such as public safety and parks services.
•Keeping pace with general cost inflation.
•Avoiding fee spikes that are more likely to occur when municipalities leave fees unchanged for a multi-year period.
•Providing fee payers, City Staff, and City policymakers with a pattern of consistency that provides information for forecasting and decision-making purposes. •Helping to meet fee-payer service level expectations by collecting fees to fund the existing level of services provided.
•Encouraging generational equity among fee payers by avoiding long-term stagnation of fees followed by significant fee increases.
Exhibit A to the resolution includes the fee schedule proposed for adoption.
Attachment No. 2 of this report provides an illustration of current and proposed fees.
Attachment No. 3 of this report includes the user and regulatory fee study.
The following are primary outcomes and proposals that may be of particular interest to the City Council as it considers fee adjustments:
Building Fees
•Building plan review, permit processing and field inspection fees have been restructured to enhance the correlation between services provided and fees collected. The proposed fee methodology scales to allow for lower fees for less complex projects and higher fees for more complex projects.
•Establish fixed, consolidated fees for the City’s most common minor permits. This will allow applicants to easily estimate permit fees and allow staff to efficiently administer the fee calculation and collection process.
•Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.
Planning Fees
•Due to the nature of development within California, many projects take a significant amount of resources over a multi-month and potentially multi-year timeframe, depending on project complexity and magnitude.
•Full cost recovery is targeted from most proposed fees due to the regulatory nature of the fees and the high level of direct benefit resulting from construction activities including City Council April 1, 2025
Resolution No. 25-12 – Adoption of Fees Page No. 3
1 2
7 6
enjoyment of property enhancements, increased property values, and the desire to avoid having other residents and businesses subsidize an individual's private construction activities.
•Current cost recovery varies widely depending on the fee examined (10% - 90%).
Engineering Fees
•Engineering and encroachment permit fees are collected to recover the costs associated with improvement plan review, permitting, and construction inspection along with review and inspection of work conducted within the City right-of-way. •Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.
Recreation and Social Services Fees
•Minor, inflationary, adjustments are proposed for recreation and social services fees.
The City’s costs of providing recreation and social services will continue to be largely supported by the City’s General Fund.
•Staff have proposed restructuring reserved facility use fees to allow for differing rental rates for the following user groups: residential; non-residential; non-profit; commercial.
Fee Comparison
•Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. •The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and will remain within the range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions in the area. •The City, consistent with other cities throughout the State, has an existing fee schedule that contemplates hundreds of potential unique requests for service. This can result in thousands of fee scenarios when comparing among multiple agencies. Consequently, an exhaustive comparison of the hundreds, and potentially thousands of scenarios is unrealistic. Instead, comparison information for several targeted fee categories (e.g., high volume categories, fee categories of particular interest to community, etc.) are provided in order to provide City Council with a reasonable sense of changes expected. •For Norwalk, depending on the fee examined, outcomes will show that new fees may range from lower, to mid, to upper end of regional fee spectrum depending on the service provided. This is common among municipalities due to differing levels of service and review included among various fee categories.
It is anticipated that costs will 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 once updated fees are established, they are updated annually, in accordance with Norwalk Municipal Code Chapter 3.40. A most commonly used factor to determine updated fees annually City Council April 1, 2025
Resolution No. 25-12 – Adoption of Fees Page No. 4
1 2
7 6
is the Consumer Price Index, which is a well-known and accepted methodology to reflect changes in costs.
If adopted, updated User and Regulatory Fees will take effect July 1, 2025.
Fiscal Impact:
The anticipated General Fund fiscal impact of the proposed fee changes is approximately $1,410,000 in additional cost recovery for fee-related services.
Although the changes are anticipated to provide additional revenue, the revenue is not intended to be used to fund new services, rather the revenue is intended to offset the costs of providing existing services that are recoverable from fees.
Citizens Advised:
Notice of Public Hearing regarding the establishment and/or adjustment of fees and service charges was published in the Norwalk Patriot on March 14, 2025 and March 21, 2025.
Additionally, notice was posted at the City’s three designated places.
Strategic Plan 2023 Implementation:
The recommended actions will further the City’s 2023 Strategic Plan Goal 3 Create and Sustain a Resilient and Economically Prosperous City.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORWALK
UPDATING AND ESTABLISHING USER AND REGULATORY FEES FOR
FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to comply with both the letter and the spirit of the California Constitution and limit the growth of taxes, by shifting, where possible, the burden of special regulatory programs and services and products to applicants and the recipients of the benefits thereof; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with the Norwalk Municipal Code, City Council further desires to continue its established policy of recovering the full costs reasonably borne of providing special services and programs of a voluntary and limited nature, and regulatory services deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety or welfare, such that general taxes are not diverted from general services of a broad nature and thereby utilized to subsidize unfairly and inequitably such special services; and WHEREAS, in accordance with the Norwalk Municipal Code, City Council further desires to increase certain existing fees to more accurately reflect the current costs of providing such special and regulatory services and programs, and to establish fees to offset the expense of providing those special and regulatory services and programs heretofore provided at less than the costs reasonably borne by the City for the same services; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Norwalk Municipal Code, City Council further desires to continue its policy regarding charges to be recovered from users of certain City services, and beneficiaries of certain City programs, which City Council has determined are particularly important to protection of the public health, safety and welfare, and to direct City staff as to the methodology for implementing this direction to encourage certain users of City services to obtain permits and inspections; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code Sections 66014, 66017 and 66018 and the Norwalk Municipal Code, the specific fees to be charged for certain regulations, services and products must be adopted by resolution, following notice and public hearing; and
WHEREAS, notice of public hearing has been given pursuant to Government Code Section 6062a, and written notice has been provided to interested parties who filed written requests for mailed notice of meetings on new or increased development-related fees or service charges, and written presentations made and received, and the required public hearing was held on April 1, 2025; and
WHEREAS, a schedule of fees and charges to be paid by those requesting such special services and products, and who are the recipients of the benefits of certain City Resolution No. 25-12 Page 2 of 43
4 0
1 2
regulatory programs, must be adopted so that the City might carry in to effect its policies; and
WHEREAS, it is the intention of City Council to annually develop and adopt a revised schedule of fees and charges, based upon the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach- Riverside areas as published by the U.S. Department of Labor from March of the prior year to March of the current year to project costs reasonably borne for the new fiscal year beginning July 1st of each year. This revision, however, will occur only if the Consumer Price Index causes fees to increase, if it causes a decrease, no revision shall be made.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORWALK HEREBY DETERMINES, FINDS, AND RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Adoption and Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are incorporated herein.
Section 2. Adoption of Fees and Charges. The City Council hereby approves and adopts the fees and charges for regulations, services and products set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The City Council finds that, except where such fees and charges have been reduced or subsidized pursuant to Section 5 of this Resolution, the fees and charges established herein do not exceed the estimated, reasonable costs incurred by the City in providing the regulations, services and products to which each such fee or charge applies.
Section 3. Methodology for Calculation and Collection of Fees and Charges. The fees and charges established herein shall be calculated and collected in accordance with Norwalk Municipal Code, the Report, and otherwise as follows:
A. Each fee and charge established herein is for an identified regulation, service or product; additional fees shall be required for each additional regulation, service or product that is requested or required.
B. Where fees or charges are indicated on a per unit of measurement basis, the fee is for each identified unit or portion thereof within the indicated range of such units.
C. The fees or charges due shall be calculated by the various City department(s), and shall be collected prior to the City’s performance of the services, unless a written agreement is entered into for deferral of such fees, or unless otherwise provided herein.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
STUDY OVERVIEW
The City of Norwalk has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study. California cities regularly conduct these studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall portfolio of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services.
Industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that same individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues as much as possible for use toward services of broader community benefit.
USER AND REGULATORY FEES
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, license fees, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by the City for providing fee -related services an d ac tivities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying th e fee .
California law provides guidance regarding the amounts the City may charge for fee-related services and activities. Specifically, in order to avoid being considered taxes, the fees ch arged shall not exceed th e estim ated reasonable c ost of providing th e services , activities, or materials for which fees are charged.
At its conclusion, this study proposes for City Council review and consideration at public hearing a new Schedule of User Fees an d Charges for application in Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and continued update in subsequent years.
COST RECOVERY POLICY AND PRACTICE
Recovering the costs of providing fee-related services directly influences the City’s fiscal health and increases the City’s ability to meet the service level expectations of fee payers.
The services for which the City imposes a user or regulatory fee typically derive from an individual person or entity’s action, request, or behavior. Therefore, except in cases where there is an overwhelming public benefit generated by the City’s involveme nt in the individual action, a fee for servic e en sures that th e individual bears m ost, if not all, of the cost incurred by the City to provide that servic e . When a fee targets “100% or full cost recovery,” the individual is bearing the entirety of the cost. When a fee targets less than full cost recovery, another City revenue source – in most cases, the General Fund – subsidizes the individualized activity.
Generally, fees for service are targeted to full cost rec overy, inclusive of operating, direct, indirec t, and c apital costs, exc ept in cases wh ere the City Counc il cites a public interest in lower fees . The City may also be influenced by market conditions, comparing to municipalities of similar size and service profile.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
FINDINGS AND PROPOSED ACTION
During the course of study, information and analysis was generated and is discussed substantively throughout this report and its technical appendices. However, summarized in the following table by broad fee category and highlighted in the subsequent findings statements, are outcomes and proposals of particular interest to City leaders and policymakers.
PRIMARY OUTCOMES
BUILDIN G F EES
• Building plan review, permit processing and field inspection fees have been restructured to enhance the correlation between services provided and fees collected. The proposed fee methodology scales to allow for lower fees for less complex projects and higher fees for more complex projects.
• Establish fixed, consolidated fees for the City’s most common minor permits. This will allow applicants to easily estimate permit fees and allow staff to efficiently administer the fee calculation and collection process.
• Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.
PLANNING F EES
• Due to the nature of development within California, many projects take a significant amount of resources over a multi-month and potentially multi-year timeframe, depending on project complexity and magnitude.
• Full cost recovery is targeted from most proposed fees due to the regulatory nature of the fees and the high level of direct benefit resulting from construction activities including enjoyment of property enhancements, increased property values, and the des ire to avoid having other residents and businesses subsidize an individual's private construction activities.
• Current cost recovery varies widely depending on the fee examined (10% - 90%).
ENGINEERIN G F EES
• Engineering and encroachment permit fees are collected to recover the costs associated with improvement plan review, permitting, and construction inspection along with review and inspection of work conducted within the City right-of-way. • Full cost recovery is targeted from proposed fees.
RECREATION AND SOCIAL SER VICES F EES
• Minor, inflationary, adjustments are proposed for recreation and social services fees. The City’s costs of providing recreation and social services will continue to be largely supported by the City’s General Fund.
• Staff have proposed restructuring reserved facility use fees to allow for differing rental rates for the following user groups: residential; non-residential; non-profit; commercial.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
FEE COMPARISON
Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and will remain within the range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions in the area. Regional fee comparison information is included in Appendix I of this report.
FISCAL IMPACT
The anticipated General Fund fiscal impact of the proposed fee changes is approximately $1,410,000 in additional cost recovery for fee-related services.

PROJECT ORIENTATION
REASON FOR STUDY
Cities derive annual revenue from a number of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by a City for providing fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.
California cities regularly conduct fee studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall body of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services. Widespread industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues for services of broader community benefit.
PREVAILING GUIDANCE
The objectives of this study, the methodology used to complete the study, and the formulation of outcomes and recommendations for future consideration were significantly influenced by Article 13C of the California Constitution and Section 66014 of the California Government Code.
Article 13C states that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. Additionally, Article 13C identifies the following as items that are not defined as taxes:
A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege. A charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product. A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication th ereof. A charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property.
A fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law.
A charge imposed as a condition of property development. Assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII D.
Section 66014(a) of the California Government Code includes the following, “Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a local agency charges fees for zoning variances; zoning changes; use permits; building inspections; building permits; …the process ing of maps under the provisions of the CLE A RS OU RCE RE PORT T O T H E CI T Y OF N O RW A LK | 7
PROJECT ORIENTATION
Subdivision Map Act…; or planning services…; those fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged, unless a question regarding the amount of the fee charged in excess of the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services or materials is submitted to, and approved by, a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting on the issue.
The outcomes and recommendations of the study are intended to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws including providing confirmation that the proposed fees (“charges”) recommended as a result of this study are not taxes as defined in Articl e 13C of the California Constitution and that the proposed fees are no more than necessary to the cover the reasonable costs of the City’s activities and services addressed in the fees. Additionally, this report is intended to show that the manner in whic h the costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and services provided by the City.
METHODOLOGY AND DATA SOURCES
This study calculated the estimated reasonable cost of providing various fee -related services across the City organization. Generally, the estimated reasonable cost of providing the fee-related services and activities examined in this study can be calculated as the product of the composite fully-burdened hourly labor rate of the division responsible for providin g services and the estimated labor time required to process a typical request for service.
The composite fully-burdened hourly rates calculated in this study are based on the estimated annual hours spent providing fee related services, and estimated labor, services and supplies, and Citywide overhead expenditures, sourced as follows:
Labor expenditures for in -house personnel were based on budgeted salary and benefits expenditures.
Contract service personnel and other services and supplies related costs were based on Fiscal Year 2024/25 adopted budgets and anticipated costs. Citywide overhead cost allocations were developed to assign a reasonable share of central service support to the City’s direct service units.
Estimated labor time spent providing fee related services were developed based on interviews with City staff and are in-line with typical direct service ratios experienced by the consultant via studies of similar municipalities throughout California. Commonly used industry data also aided in the development of time estimates and proposed fee structures.
Once cost of service levels are identified, the City may use this information to inform targeted cost recovery from fees. Fees set at the cost of service target full cost recovery. Fees set at any amount less than the cost of service target less than full cost recovery.
An illustration of the methods used in this analysis is shown in Exhibit 1.

IMPLEMENTATION
CONSIDERATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION
If the City decides to adopt or otherwise utilize outcomes generated through this study, it should:
Update Systems for Fee Outcom es - Ensure that City staff begin using updated fees and associated outcomes once the updated schedule of fees becomes effective. Values should be included in all official fee schedules used throughout the City (e.g., departmental pamphlets, counter schedules, and online information). Additionally, ensure collections processes are updated, which may include coding in billing systems and training for personnel who handle fees directly with the public.
Actively M onitor th e Use of F ees - In order to recover accurate and eligible amounts expected, the City should be diligent about tracking time to projects for time and materials billings and ensuring fees are applied in the correct amount and using the correct and intended basis for fixed fee billings.
Monitor F eedback and Perm it Statistics - Monitor permit and application volume and applicant feedback to determine if fee modifications are resulting in any unanticipated changes in project frequency and to increase the level of detail available for revenue forecasting.
Annually R eview an d Adjust F ee Values - In order to generally maintain pace with regional cost inflation and/or the City's salary cost inflation, the City should adjust its fees on an annual basis. A commonly used, reasonable inflation index is the annual change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index (CPI) representative of the region. Periodic ally Perform Comprehen sive An alysis - A comprehensive fee study should be conducted periodically (e.g., every three to five years) to ensure fee levels remain at or below legal limits and are consistent with evolving service practices and local conditions.
APPENDIX I
FEE COMPARISON
Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and are in -range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions.
In order to provide the City Council with additional information as it considers potential adjustments to fees, current and proposed fees were compared to amounts collected by other agencies.
The City of Norwalk, consistent with other cities throughout the State, has an existing fee schedule that contemplates hundreds of potential unique requests for service. This can result in thousands of fee scenarios when comparing among multiple agencies. Consequently, an exhaustive comparison of the hundreds, and potentially thousands of scenarios is unrealistic. Instead, comparison information for several targeted fee categories (e.g., high volume categories, fee categories of particular interest to community, etc.) are provided in order to provide City Council with a reasonable sense of changes expected.
For Norwalk, depending on the fee examined, outcomes will show that new fees may range from lower, to mid, to upper end of regional fee spectrum depending on the service provided. This is common among municipalities due to differing levels of service and review included among various fee categories. Amounts shown are intended for illustrative purposes only and are intended to serve as estimates rather than exact amounts. Exact amounts will vary based on project specifications.

TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jesus M. Gomez, City Manager
BY: Alex Hamilton, Interim Director of Community Development SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 25-13 - APPROVING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO EXCHANGE AGREEMENT AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS FOR 12124
FIRESTONE BOULEVARD
Background:
On October 17, 2023 the City adopted Resolution No. 23-61 declaring the City-owned property located at 12124 Firestone Boulevard exempt surplus land pursuant to Government Code Section 54221(F)(1)(C) and approving an Exchange Agreement for the “swapping” of land of then City owned property located at the southwest corner of Firestone Boulevard and Clarkdale Avenue with Firestone Lofts, LP (the Developer) in return for the conveyance of real property located at the southeast corner of Firestone Boulevard and San Antonio Drive - San Antonio Property (see Attachment No. 3 for depiction of the lands exchanged).
The exchange of the City Property and San Antonio Property was deemed necessary to provide for improvements in the general area to accommodate parking and access. The exchange was also necessary to facilitate the development of the City Property into a 76-unit affordable workforce housing and market rate project, which would eliminate the current blighted and underutilized property, revitalize the Front Street commercial area, and support the City’s ongoing efforts to increase the supply of affordable and market rate housing.
The table below outlines the status of the Exchange Agreement obligations:
City & Firestone Lofts, LP. Open escrow for property

escrow instructions.
Escrow opened & $500,000 by

Tenant improvements for “Bank
Building-Norwalk Records” at
northwest corner of Front and
Clarkdale to be completed at
Developers expense.
Proposed Amendment No. 1 to the Exchange Agreement terms:
This proposed amendment would assign the City the responsibility to demolish the bank building at the southeast corner of San Antonio and Firestone Boulevard. It would also allow for the release of the $500,000 in an escrow account to the Developer and TUVF in consideration of completion of shell only tenant improvements. To date the developer is significantly complete with these improvements and the valuation and associated costs with developing this landmark building is anticipated to be in excess of $500,000 and the transfer of funding is warranted. This building and its subsequent occupancy is expected to be an integral activity for the reactivation and revitalization of Front Street. Conversely, the City has sufficient funding to undertake the remediation and demolition of the bank building.
Environmental:
The First Amendment to the Exchange Agreement is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) – Common Sense Exemption in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the approval of the First Amendment to the Exchange Agreement may have a significant effect on the environment None of the exceptions to the Categorical Exemptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply.
Fiscal Impact:
None at this time. If the amendment is approved, staff will return with bid documents for the abatement, demolition, and subsequent parking lot improvements of the property.
