ITEM 9.2.

DATE: October 5, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM:

Albert Stricker, Public Works Director
Quoc Nham, Principal Civil Engineer
Khaliq McClean, Associate Civil Engineer
SUBJECT: SECOND READING OF AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING SPECIAL TAX ZONE NO. 36 FOR TRANSIT-RELATED SERVICES FOR THE

IONNA EV CHARGING PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
Waive the second reading and adopt the Ordinance.

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Ordinance would assist the city in meeting the costs of providing transit-related services by creating Special Tax Area Zone No. 36 and establishing a Special Tax for transitrelated services for The IONNA EV Charging project.

BACKGROUND
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 141-2005 on November 7, 2005, providing for a special tax for transit-related services to be imposed upon new development within the city.

Pursuant to that Resolution, a property owner approves a special tax on the parcels within a subdivision or project. The City Council then adopts a Resolution creating a zone that encompasses the subdivision or project and an Ordinance establishing the special tax.

On September 21, 2026, the City Council waived the first reading and passed to a second reading of the Ordinance. On the same date, the City Council also approved a Resolution that established Special Tax Zone No. 36, the boundaries of which will be contiguous to the boundaries of The IONNA EV Charging project.

Following adoption of the Ordinance, a mailed ballot election will be held on October 27, 2026, at 1:30 p.m., in the office of the City Clerk located at 2729 Prospect Park Drive, Rancho Cordova, CA 95670, at which time the ballot will be tabulated by the City Clerk, and the results will be declared at the City Council meeting on November 16, 2026, if the election is successful.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
There is no impact to the city’s general fund.

CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA
ORDINANCE NO. XX-2026

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA, STATE OF CALIFORNIA,

ESTABLISHING A SPECIAL TAX FOR TRANSIT-RELATED SERVICES FOR THE IONNA

EV CHARGING PROJECT SUBJECT TO VOTER APPROVAL

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF THE RANCHO CORDOVA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. Purpose, Intent and Authority.

It is of critical importance to the City Council of the City of Rancho Cordova that residents of and employees working in the city receive high quality transit-related services. In carefully reviewing the city’s budget and revenue projections, it is clear to city staff that the city budget does not contain adequate funding to ensure the continued delivery of adequate high-quality transit-related services unless additional revenues are obtained.

It is the purpose and intent of this non-codified Ordinance to generate additional funds to pay for transit-related services by authorizing the levy of a tax on improved parcels of real property on the secured property tax roll of Sacramento County that are within Zone 36 of the Rancho Cordova Transit-Related Services Special Tax Area (the “Zone”).

This tax is a special tax within the meaning of Section 4 of the Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. Because the burden of this tax falls upon property, this tax also is a property tax, but this tax is not determined according to nor in any manner based upon the value of property; this tax is levied on a parcel and use of property basis. Insofar as not inconsistent with this Ordinance or with legislation authorizing special taxes and insofar as applicable to a property tax that is not based on value, such provisions of the California Revenue and Taxation Code and of Article XIII of the California Constitution as relate to ad valorem property taxes are intended to apply to the collection and administration of this tax (Section 4 of this Ordinance), as authorized by law. This tax is not an ad valorem property tax; it is an excise tax on the use of property. Because the revenue from the tax may be used only to fund transit-related services, it is also a special tax.

The revenues raised by this tax are to be used solely for the purpose of providing transit-related services as are deemed necessary by the City Council for the benefit of the residents and/or employees of Zone 36.

At the time that the Council adopted this non-codified Ordinance, there were zero (0) registered voters residing in Zone 36 and one property owner. Because the Transit-Related Services Special Tax will be imposed on property in Zone 36 and paid by the owner of the property, the Council finds that restricting the vote on the Transit-Related Services Special Tax to property owners in Zone 36 is appropriate and consistent with the principles and requirements of California Constitution article XIIIC (Proposition 218).

Section 2. Definitions.

ITEM 9.2. ATTACHMENT 1
Ordinance No. XX-2026 Page 2 of 5
The following definitions shall apply throughout this Ordinance.

A. "Constant first year dollars" shall mean an actual dollar amount which, in years subsequent to the first fiscal year the tax is levied, shall have the same purchasing price as the base amount in first fiscal year dollars as measured by the Consumer Price Index. The base amount shall be the amount of tax per parcel as specified in Section 3(A) herein. The adjustments from actual to constant dollars shall be made by use of the Consumer Price Index, as specified in Section 3(B) herein.

B. "Consumer Price Index" means the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Area as published by the U.S.

Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. If the Consumer Price Index is discontinued or revised, such other government index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtained if the Consumer Price Index had not been discontinued or revised.

C. “Fiscal year" means the period of July 1 through the following June 30.

D. “Parcel" means the land and any improvements thereon, designated by an assessor’s parcel map and parcel number and carried on the secured property tax roll of Sacramento County. For the purposes of this Ordinance, parcel does not include any land or improvements outside the boundaries of Zone 36, nor any land or improvements owned by any governmental entity.

E. “Rancho Cordova Transit-Related Services Special Tax Area" means all the properties within the jurisdictional limits of the City of Rancho Cordova.

F. “Rancho Cordova Transit-Related Services Special Tax Area Zone 36 (the “Zone”) means that portion of the incorporated area of the City of Rancho Cordova located within the boundaries as shown on the map Exhibit A.

G. “Transit-Related Services” means providing, operating, maintaining and subsidizing transit services and all supporting facilities, infrastructure, programs and incentives that benefit the residents of the Rancho Cordova Transit-Related Services Special Tax Area, and shall be calculated and set according to the methodology described in Engineer’s Report County Service Area No. 10 and Benefit Zone No. 1 County of Sacramento, November 18, 2004, which established the methodology for the original service charge for Benefit Zone No. 1.

H. “Voter” means a person who owns real property within Zone 36, as shown on the last equalized assessment role prepared by the Sacramento County Assessor’s Office, at the time that the City Council adopts an ordinance authorizing the imposition of a transitrelated services tax to the voters of Zone 36.

Section 3. Amount and Level of Taxes.

The tax per year on each parcel in the Zone shall not exceed the amount applicable to the parcel, as specified below.

ITEM 9.2. ATTACHMENT 1

All claims filed pursuant to this subsection must be presented within one year after payment of the amount for which the claimant is seeking a refund.

3. No order of a refund may be made until a written claim therefor has been presented in accordance with this subsection. No suit for money, damages or a refund may be brought against the city until a written claim therefor has been presented to the city and has been acted upon or has been deemed rejected by the city, in accordance with this subsection. Only the person who filed the claim may bring such a suit, and if another person should do so, judgment shall not be rendered for the plaintiff.

F. Initiatives to Affect Tax.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA, STATE OF CALIFORNIA AMENDING TITLE 23, ZONING CODE, ARTICLE 9 SPECIFIC USE

PROVISIONS OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA MUNICIPAL CODE THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. Purpose and Declarations.

WHEREAS, the city conducts periodic updates of the provisions of the Rancho Cordova Municipal Code (RCMC) to ensure compliance with current laws, changes in local policy, consistency with adopted plans and programs, clarify ambiguities, address changing market conditions, reflect best practices, and to address issues or concerns with current regulations; and
WHEREAS, Title 23 Chapter 23.901 Residential Uses, Section 23.901.060 Accessory Dwelling Units of the Municipal Code, sets forth provisions for Accessory Dwelling Units; and
WHEREAS, the Ordinance would amend Section 23.901.060 to make the accessory dwelling unit provisions consistent with State law and to make minor grammatical and structural changes for improved clarity; and
WHEREAS, on September 21, 2026, the City Council held a properly noticed public hearing for this Ordinance and considered all oral and written testimony.

Section 2: Findings. This Ordinance is adopted pursuant to the following findings:

A. CEQA Compliance. CEQA requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary “projects.” A “project,” under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (CEQA Guidelines, § 15378.) As reflected in State CEQA Guideline 15061 (b) (3), an activity is not subject to CEQA, “[where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment…” The proposed amendments are not a “project” within the meaning of CEQA because the amendments seek to provide clarification of uses, standards and/or enforcement procedures, address inconsistencies between definitions, delete text that is no longer necessary. Because no expansion of uses or activities is reasonably anticipated, no possibility exists that the ordinance will result in a significant effect on the environment. Thus, the proposed ordinance is not subject to the requirements of CEQA. However, in the event that adoption of the ordinance is considered a CEQA project, it would nonetheless qualify for categorical exemptions as set forth below.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) states that a project is exempt from CEQA “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The approval of the code amendments set

ITEM 9.3. ATTACHMENT 1
Ordinance No. XX-2026 Page 2 of 3
forth in the proposed ordinance does not approve any physical development and it would not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Any specific development projects that may result from these changes will be subject to environmental review. The proposed amendments are consistent with the city’s General Plan. For these reasons, the proposed amendments would not have the potential to result in individually or cumulatively significant effects on the environment and these Zoning Code amendments are exempt from review under CEQA and no further environmental review is necessary.

B. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan. The attached Zoning Code Amendments (“Amendments”) are consistent with the General Plan. The amendments would address inconsistencies, delete text and graphics that are no longer necessary, and provide clarifying language for implementation.

C. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the city. The amendments would address inconsistencies, delete text and graphics that are no longer necessary, and provide clarifying language for implementation. None of these proposed amendments will be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the city.

D. The proposed amendments are internally consistent with other applicable provisions in this Zoning Code. The Amendments have been reviewed for consistency with the entirety of the Zoning Code and are consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code.

Section 3. Amendments to Title 23 Zoning Code
The City Council hereby adopts the amendments to Title 23 Zoning Code of the Rancho Cordova Municipal Code, as shown and incorporated in Exhibit A to this Ordinance.

Section 4. Severability
If any provision of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held invalid, the remainder of the Ordinance, including the application of such part or provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall continue in full force and effect. To this end, provisions of this Ordinance are severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase hereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases be held unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable.

Section 5. Effective Date
Within fifteen (15) days after adoption, a Summary of this Ordinance shall be published once in the Grapevine Independent, or the Sacramento Bee, a newspaper of general circulation printed and published in Sacramento County and circulated in the City of Rancho Cordova, in accordance with Government Code Section 36933.

ITEM 9.4.

DATE: October 5, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Albert Stricker, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 2022-62-2 WITH ROUSH

LANDSCAPE SERVICES TO INCREASE THE CONTRACT AMOUNT
FROM $2,384,960 TO AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $3,040,760

FOR CONTINUED LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR

PUBLICLY OWNED LANDSCAPE FACILITIES

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would authorize the City Manager to execute Contract Amendment No. 2022-62-2 with Roush Landscape Services for landscape maintenance services. The amendment would increase the contract amount from $2,384,960 to an amount not to exceed $3,040,760 for continued landscape maintenance services for publicly owned landscape facilities.

BACKGROUND
The City of Rancho Cordova is responsible for landscape maintenance of city-owned parcels including street medians and frontages, bicycle trails, pedestrian paseos, and neighborhood greens in newly developed areas of the city. Well-maintained landscaping contributes to the beauty and positive image of Rancho Cordova neighborhoods. In July 2022, the city entered into an agreement with Roush Landscape Services (Contract No. 2022-62) to provide landscape maintenance services. The work scope for this contract includes turf mowing and edging, tree and shrub pruning, irrigation system maintenance, fertilization, litter removal, and weed control.

In May 2024, the city executed Contract Amendment No. 2022-62-1, which added twelve landscaped areas to the contract scope and extended the contract term from June 30, 2025, to June 30, 2027. The amendment increased the contract amount from $644,120 to an amount not to exceed $2,384,960 for continued landscape maintenance services.

Since the execution of the first amendment, eight additional landscaped areas have been added to the contract scope, resulting in the need to increase the contract amount to continue providing landscape maintenance services through June 30, 2027. These additional

City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2

landscaped areas are associated with new development and recently constructed public improvements located primarily east of Sunrise Boulevard and south of Douglas Road. Four additional landscaped areas are anticipated to come online within the next three months and will require additional funding for maintenance services through the remainder of the contract term.

City staff recommends the approval of Contract Amendment No. 2022-62-2 with Roush Landscape Services to increase the contract amount from $2,384,960 to an amount not to exceed $3,040,760 for continued maintenance services.

The city will conduct a competitive request for proposals and execute a new contract for the term beginning July 1, 2027.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
Sufficient funding for the amendment is included in the adopted budget and will be funded by special districts. There is no impact to the city’s general fund.

TO AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $437,562.50 TO CONTINUE

FINAL DESIGN, RIGHT OF WAY & CONSTRUCTION

ADMINISTRATION SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE WHITE ROCK
ROAD PHASE 3 PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution and awarding the design contract amendment will finalize the design and right of way phases of White Rock Road Phase 3 Project and prepare for the construction phase of a critical widening that will support the traveling public, increase safety and support future development growth in Rancho Cordova.

BACKGROUND
White Rock Road from 0.5 mile east of Rancho Cordova Parkway to the city limits is currently an undivided two-lane road with narrow shoulders, no bicycle facilities, and poor pavement condition with vertical & horizontal alignment challenges (See Project Site Map). At full buildout, the White Rock Road Phase 3 Project will include six lanes with class II bicycle lanes, sidewalks, and landscaped median and frontage. The project will increase safety and beauty of the corridor, promote economic development by improving access between 65,000 jobs in Rancho Cordova and surrounding regions, and provide an alternate route to US 50 that relieves regional congestion.

As part of the project coordination process with the Sacramento County Water Agency, it was determined that additional scope of work is required for the design of the water system along the corridor that will support future development growth. Sacramento County Water Agency will reimburse the city for costs associated with this additional scope.

The White Rock Road Project is not only a critical safety enhancement but also supports the city’s goals to promote the positive image of Rancho Cordova; ensure a safe, inviting and

City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2

livable community; and ensure the availability of the best public services in the region while practicing sound financial management.

This contract amendment is to complete the final design engineering services, right of way acquisition, Caltrans coordination & certification and construction administration as the project transitions into the construction phase.

Design will be completed in winter 2026 with construction scheduled to begin in spring/summer 2027.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
Funding for White Rock Road Phase 3 Project consists of $5,500,000 in SACOG Regional Grant, $4,000,000 Congressional Direct Spending Funds, and Traffic Mitigation Impact Fees.

There are no impacts to the city's general fund.

This project is included in the city’s current approved Capital Improvement Plan and in the 2026/27 budget.

DATE: October 5, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Stefan Heisler, Housing Manager
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION APPROVING CONDUIT FINANCING FOR THE

LIORA APARTMENTS AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct the public hearing under the requirements of the Tax and Equity Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and adopt the Resolution approving the issuance of the Bonds by the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA) for the benefit of Liora Owner LP (the Borrower) or a partnership of which Lincoln Avenue Communities (the Developer) or a related person to the Developer is the general partner, to provide for the financing of the Project, such adoption is solely for the purposes of satisfying the requirements of TEFRA, the Code and the California Government Code Section 6500 (and following).

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The City Council is being asked to conduct a public hearing under the TEFRA in connection with the proposed issuance of revenue bonds by the CMFA, a joint exercise of powers authority and public entity of the State of California, in an amount not to exceed $50,000,000, (the Bonds), to finance or refinance the acquisition, construction, improvement and equipping of a multifamily rental housing project located at 4381 Anatolia Drive, Rancho Cordova, California, (the Project).

The purpose of the meeting is to adopt a resolution to approve the financing of the Project by the CMFA.

BACKGROUND
The Borrower requested that the CMFA serve as the municipal issuer of the Bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000 of tax-exempt revenue bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance or refinance the acquisition, construction, improvement and equipping of a multifamily rental housing project located at 4321-4381 Anatolia Drive, Rancho Cordova.

In order for all or a portion of the Bonds to qualify as tax-exempt bonds, the City of Rancho Cordova must conduct a public hearing (the TEFRA Hearing) providing for the members of the community an opportunity to speak in favor of or against the use of tax-exempt bonds for the financing of the Project. Prior to such TEFRA Hearing, reasonable notice must be provided to

City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2

the members of the community. Following the close of the TEFRA Hearing, an “applicable elected representative” of the governmental unit hosting the Project must provide its approval of the issuance of the Bonds for the financing of the Project.

CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL FINANCE AUTHORITY
The CMFA was created on January 1, 2004, pursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement to promote economic, cultural and community development, through the financing of economic development and charitable activities throughout California. To date, over 350 municipalities, including the City of Rancho Cordova, have become members of CMFA.

The CMFA was formed to assist local governments, non-profit organizations and businesses with the issuance of taxable and tax-exempt bonds aimed at improving the standard of living in California. The CMFA’s representatives and its Board of Directors have considerable experience in bond financings.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
The Bonds to be issued by the CMFA for the Project will be the sole responsibility of the Borrower, and the city will have no financial, legal, moral obligation, liability or responsibility for the Project or the repayment of the Bonds for the financing of the Project. All financing documents with respect to the issuance of the Bonds will contain clear disclaimers that the Bonds are not obligations of the city or the State of California but are to be paid for solely from funds provided by the Borrower.

The Board of Directors of the California Foundation for Stronger Communities, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (the “Foundation”), acts as the Board of Directors for the CMFA.

Through its conduit issuance activities, the CMFA shares a portion of the issuance fees it receives with its member communities and donates a portion of these issuance fees to the Foundation for the support of local charities. With respect to the City of Rancho Cordova it is expected that that a portion of the issuance fee attributable to the city will be granted by the CMFA to the general fund of the city. Such grant may be used for any lawful purpose of the city.

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION DECLARING A PROTEST HEARING AND

AUTHORIZING THE MAILING OF PROPERTY OWNER BALLOT

RELATING TO THE IMPOSITION OF THE ANNUAL STORMWATER

UTILITY FEE FOR THE IONNA EV CHARGING PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would declare the results of the property owner's protest and, if there exists less than a majority protest, authorize the mailing of a ballot to the property owner to approve the levy of the fee to pay for maintenance of storm drainage and flood protection systems for the IONNA EV Charging project. The action also sets 1:30 p.m. on October 27, 2026, in the office of the City Clerk located at City Hall, 2729 Prospect Park Drive, Rancho Cordova, as the time and date for the ballot tabulation for the matter.

BACKGROUND
The IONNA EV Charging project has a condition of approval which requires funding for operation and maintenance of the storm drainage system. This condition will be satisfied by participation in the new Stormwater Utility Fee for storm drainage and flood protection services, which is the subject of tonight’s action. The property owner of the IONNA EV Charging project has requested the city annex the project to the city’s Stormwater Utility Fee pursuant to the California Health and Safety Code section 5471 et seq. to provide the method of financing for storm drainage and flood protection services required to meet the condition. On September 21, 2026, Council adopted a resolution which established Procedures for the Conduct of a Protest Hearing and Balloting Relating to a Stormwater Utility Fee (the “Procedures”) and designated October 5, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. as the time and place for hearing protests in connection with the annual Stormwater Utility Fee for the IONNA EV Charging project.

DISCUSSION
The property owner has submitted a petition and waiver for the city to institute the proceedings to participate in the Stormwater Utility Fee. This annexation to the Stormwater Utility Fee will

City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2

include the project generally known as the IONNA EV Charging Subdivision project, see Attachment 2. The maintenance services to be funded include the furnishing of services and materials for the ordinary and usual operation, maintenance, and servicing of the storm drain and flood protection systems.

Attachment 1 is the Resolution declaring the results of the property owner's protest and authorizing the mailing of the property owner ballot, as required by Article XIII D of the California Constitution (also known as Proposition 218). The Resolution sets forth the tabulation of ballots on October 27, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. in the office of the City Clerk located at City Hall, 2729 Prospect Park Drive, Rancho Cordova. The results of the mailed ballot election will be presented to City Council at their regularly scheduled meeting on November 16, 2026, and additional actions will be recommended based on the ballot results.

A “Rate Analysis Report” was approved by City Council on September 4, 2014, by Resolution No. 103-2014 setting the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 maximum annual Stormwater Utility Fee amount for each parcel proportionate to the estimated stormwater runoff for each parcel, see Attachment 3. The maximum annual fee will increase each subsequent Fiscal Year by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), during the preceding year, for All Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose areas, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. A sample of the Stormwater Utility Fees for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 is summarized in Attachment 4.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
There is no impact to the city’s general fund. Funds collected by this fee will pay for maintenance of storm drainage and flood protection systems.

Rate Analysis Report Page 1
Q:\Sacramento\Storm Drain User Fee\Report\rancho cordova drainage fee rpt DRAFT 08.6.14.docx Introduction
The City of Rancho Cordova (City) is detaching from the County of Sacramento fee and is creating their own Stormwater Utility Fee, which is being levied per the California Health and Safety Code Section 5471 et seq.

The purpose of this Rate Analysis Report is to:
 Review the Stormwater Utility Fee and improvements to be funded.  Review the requirements of Article XIIID of the State Constitution (Proposition 218) relating to requirements for apportioning the costs associated with the City’s stormwater runoff system.  Analyze and recommend an appropriate rate structure and provide estimated rates based on cost data information provided by the City.

Proposition 218 Requirements
This fee must comply with the provisions of Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition 218). Section 6 of Proposition 218 has the following requirements for all “new, extended, imposed or increased” fees and charges:
1) “Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not exceed the funds required to provide the property-related service.”
2) “Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not be used for any purpose other than that for which the fee or charge was imposed.”
3) “The amount of a fee or charge imposed upon any parcel or person as an incident of property ownership shall not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the parcel.” 4) “No fee or charge may be imposed for a service unless that service is actually used by, or immediately available to, the owner of the property in question. Fees or charges based on potential or future use of service are not permitted. Standby charges, whether characterized as charges or assessments, shall be classified as assessments and shall not be imposed without compliance with [the assessment section of this code].” 5) “No fee or charge may be imposed for general governmental services including, but not limited to, police, fire, ambulance or library services where the service is available to the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to property owners.” Background Information
In accordance with the Federal Clean Water Act of 1972, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to establish regulations setting forth National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit standards. The enactment of 1987 amendments to the Federal Clean Water Act (Act) of 1972 imposes permit requirements for discharge of storm waters. The Act allows the EPA to delegate its NPDES permitting authority to states with an approved environmental regulatory program. The State of California is one of the delegated states.

The responsibility for implementing various NPDES permits in the State of California has been delegated to the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). The SWRCB administers NPDES authority through its nine Regional Boards. As an NPDES permittee, the City is required to manage stormwater pollution within its jurisdiction.

Stormwater Utility Fee
Rate Analysis Report Page 2
Q:\Sacramento\Storm Drain User Fee\Report\rancho cordova drainage fee rpt DRAFT 08.6.14.docx In order to provide for the safety of the residents of the City and protect property in the City from the damage associated with flooding and to meet the requirements of the NPDES permit, it is necessary to design, construct, operate, maintain, improve and replace storm drainage facilities which collect storm and surface water runoff and convey and treat such runoff in a safe manner to an acceptable point of discharge. It is also necessary to inspect, monitor, and take enforcement action related to illegal dumping, and illicit discharges. In order to properly fund such facilities and activities, the City has determined that it is necessary to impose on all developing properties in Rancho Cordova a user charge for storm drainage service.

Based on the 2030 General Plan and current specific plan areas, Rancho Cordova is expected to develop as shown in Table 1 below. The proposed boundary for the stormwater utility is shown in Appendix A.

Rate Structure Analysis
Section 6.b of Article XIIID of the State Constitution (Proposition 218) states that:
“The amount of a fee or charge imposed upon any parcel or person as an incident of property ownership shall not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the parcel.” and
“No fee or charge may be imposed for a service unless that service is actually used by, or immediately available to, the owner of the property in question.” By definition, all properties that shed stormwater into the City’s stormwater drainage system use, or are served by, the City’s stormwater drainage system. The amount of use attributed to each parcel is measurable by the amount of storm runoff contributed by the property, which is directly proportional to the amount of impervious area on a parcel (such as buildings and concrete). The more impervious area on a property, the more storm runoff the property generates, the more demand placed on the storm drain system.

The amount each parcel uses the stormwater drainage system is computed by the following formula:
(Parcel Area) x (Impervious Percentage) = Drainage Units The typical percent impervious (% Impervious) for land uses in the City, have been applied for the purposes of estimating the runoff generated by each property. These are shown in Appendix B.

The more Drainage Units a parcel has, the more storm run-off it generates, and the more it uses and impacts the stormwater drainage system.

It is standard practice to relate other land uses to a developed single family residential (SFR) parcel, instead of working exclusively with drainage units. The median size of a SFR parcel will be approximately 0.16 acre. Therefore, it makes sense to relate all parcels to this median residential property. The runoff from a 0.16-acre SFR parcel is set equal to one Drainage Measurement Unit (DMU) and this base DMU is calculated as follows:
(0.16 acres of area) x 50% = 0.0800 Impervious Area = 1 DMU

ITEM 10.2. ATTACHMENT 3

City of Rancho Cordova August 7, 2014
Stormwater Utility Fee
Rate Analysis Report Page 6
Q:\Sacramento\Storm Drain User Fee\Report\rancho cordova drainage fee rpt DRAFT 08.6.14.docx Single Family Residential Parcels
As a SFR property increases in size over the median parcel size, the typical percentage of impervious area decreases, as shown in Appendix B. Conversely, as a SFR parcel decreases in size below the median parcel size, the typical percentage of impervious area increases, and such increase is typically proportional to the decrease in size. Therefore, SFR properties are separated into five (5) groups.

The median parcel area for each group was used and their DMUs are calculated as follows:

SFR Category DMU/ Formula
SFR1 – SFR parcels 0.16 acres or less 1.00 DMU
SFR2 – SFR parcels 0.17 - 0.25 acres 1.10 DMUs
SFR3 – SFR parcels 0.26 – 0.33 acres 1.175 DMUs
SFR4 – SFR parcels 0.34 – 0.50 acres 1.25 DMUs
SFR5 – SFR parcels greater than 0.50 acres 1.25 + [(acres – 0.50) x 5%] = DMUs

0.0800
Multi-Family Residential Parcels
Multi-Family Residential (MFR) units (including condominiums) are split into categories by the density, or number of dwelling units per acre (DU/Ac) as follows:

MFR Category Density % Impervious
MFR1 - High Density Greater than 18 DU/Ac 75%
MFR 2 - Med Density 10 – 18 DU/Ac 70%
Acreage x %Impervious = DMUs

0.0800
Condominium unit parcel areas are calculated by dividing the total area of the condominium complex (which includes the common area) by the number of condominium units, and the total imperviousness of the entire complex is attributed to each individual condo parcel in the complex. (This divides the runoff of the entire complex to each of the individual units.) Because these condominium common areas are taken into consideration in this manner, they are exempt from the charge.

Non- Residential Parcels
All non-residential parcel DMUs will be based on the impervious area (runoff coefficient) table shown in Exhibit B, using the following formula:

Acreage x %Impervious = DMUs

0.0800
All parcels draining into Rancho Cordova Stormwater Utility Fee-maintained drainage infrastructure are proposed to be charged the same user fee rate per DMU for stormwater runoff treatment. The Rancho Cordova Stormwater Utility Fee is proposed in perpetuity.

For the purposes of this report, City-maintained drainage infrastructure includes streets, pipes, inlets, outlets, and natural drainage courses. Parcels related to these types of property uses are exempt from the runoff charge, as they are part of the infrastructure being funded. Also exempt from the runoff charge is Caltrans right-of-way, because Caltrans handles its own runoff under a separate NPDES permit.

Table 4 below shows the estimated costs to maintain infrastructure in the developing areas. Unit costs for maintenance were derived using budget information provided by the County, since the County currently maintains the storm drainage system. The budget information is shown in Appendix C.

Table 4 – Estimated Costs
Fee Calculations
The estimated annual costs for the proposed storm drain improvements are $5,401,709 as shown in Table 4 above. Dividing that by the total number of proposed DMU’s in Rancho Cordova (47,124), the maximum estimated annual Stormwater Utility Fee rate is $114.63 per DMU.

This would be the proposed maximum fee rate for fiscal year 2014-15. The maximum rate will be increased each subsequent Fiscal Year by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), during the preceding year, for All Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose areas, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (or a reasonably equivalent index should the stated index be discontinued, as determined by the Director of Public Works).

Q:\Sacramento\Storm Drain User Fee\Report\rancho cordova drainage fee rpt DRAFT 08.6.14.docx The actual rate to be levied each year will be as approved by the City at a public hearing, after they consider an Annual Fee Report outlining the estimated annual costs of the program for the ensuing fiscal year.

Table 5 provides sample fee calculations for various land uses and parcel sizes.

Table 5 – Sample Calculations
The Preliminary Charge Roll, which is a listing of each parcel to be charged a fee and its proposed maximum fee for FY 2014-15, is on file in the office of the City Clerk.

Appeals Process
If a property owner disagrees with the calculation of his or her fee, based on the parcel area and estimated impervious percentage assigned to the property, then the property owner may appeal the calculation as follows:

1. Property owner must provide written documentation explaining the reason why the charge should be changed. This documentation must include:
a. The name, phone number, mailing address, and email address, if available, of the property owner.
b. The Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) of the property in question.

2. If additional documentation is required or insufficient documentation was submitted, a representative of the Department of Public Works (Staff) will notify the property owner in writing.

3. Once Staff has determined that sufficient documentation has been submitted, Staff will perform the initial review. Staff will notify the property owner in writing within four (4) weeks from the time sufficient documentation was submitted as to whether or not the fee amount will be changed.
a. If the determination is to change the fee amount, then the new fee amount will be documented within the City’s fee database.

MEMORANDUM
City Council Staff Report - Page 1 of 3

ITEM 12.1.

DATE: October 5, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Michelle Mingay, Assistant Director of Administrative Services - Finance SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 PRELIMINARY YEAR END FINANCIAL

REPORT WITH BUDGET AMENDMENTS AND UPDATES TO CITY'S

RESERVE POLICIES

RECOMMENDATION
Receive the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Preliminary Year-End Financial Report and adopt the accompanying Resolutions approving the Fiscal Year 2025-26 and Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget amendments, the revised reserve and surplus policies for the General Fund, and the Community Enhancement & Investment Fund (CEIF).

RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Preliminary Year-End Financial Report provides the City Council with the city's unaudited financial performance for the most recent fiscal year. The proposed budget amendments adjust the budget to reflect year-end activity and account for the proposed use of General Fund surplus for the VSP property acquisition.

BACKGROUND
The City of Rancho Cordova's Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 budget was developed with the goal of maintaining a balanced General Fund, supporting community priorities, and preserving strong reserves. This report provides preliminary results for FY 2025-26, highlighting key revenue and expenditure trends and notable variances compared with the adopted budget.

The city's General Fund, which is the main operating fund for the city, is estimated to end FY 2025-26 with revenues of $84.62 million and expenditures of $79.29 million, resulting in a preliminary operating surplus of approximately $5.32 million before reserve allocations.

Preliminary figures remain subject to final close and audit adjustments.

The attached Fiscal Year 2025-26 Preliminary Year-End Financial Report provides additional detail on general fund revenues and expenditures, reserve adjustments, and the Community Enhancement & Investment Fund.

General Fund Revenues
Total General Fund revenues for FY 2025-26 are estimated at $84.62 million, approximately $2.95 million above the $81.67 million budget. Although total revenues are above budget, they are approximately $1.99 million lower than FY 2024-25 actual revenues, a slow-down that was

City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 3

anticipated when the budget was prepared. While revenues were lower year over year, General Fund revenues have increased a total of 23.2% when compared to FY 2021-22. ▪ Taxes and Assessments: Taxes and Assessments represent the largest General Fund revenue category with estimated revenues of $61.80 million, approximately $2.19 million above budget and 5.3% higher than the prior year. Property tax remains the city's largest General Fund revenue source at $29.04 million, while sales tax comes in second, and is estimated at $20.63 million. Although there was a slight dip in sales tax revenues last year, it is estimated revenues will come in slightly above budget in FY 2025-26 and generally consistent with the prior year.
▪ Licenses, Permits & Fees: Revenues are estimated at $10.23 million, approximately $2.19 million above budget. Building permit revenues account for $5.32 million of this category, including approximately $3.28 million from residential permits and $2.04 million from commercial permits. It was anticipated there would be a slowdown in the number of building permits pulled in FY 2025-26 when the original budget was prepared.

This slowdown did not come to fruition. Therefore, building permit revenues exceeded budget by approximately $1.91 million.
▪ Use of Money & Property: Revenues are estimated at negative $842,860 compared with a budget of $1.52 million. The variance is primarily attributable to required year-end accounting adjustments reflecting unrealized changes in the market value of city investments. These noncash adjustments do not represent realized investment losses or a comparable reduction in the city's investment earnings or cash position. ▪ Other Revenues: Intergovernmental revenues are estimated at $676,938, while other revenues are estimated at $8.43 million. Transfers into the General Fund are estimated at $4.33 million, consistent with budget.

General Fund Expenditures
General Fund expenditures for FY 2025-26 are estimated at $79.29 million, approximately $2.28 million below the $81.57 million budget and approximately $3.84 million below FY 2024- 25 actual expenditures.
▪ Professional and contract services: Expenditures in this category continue to be the largest General Fund expenditure category at $38.42 million, including approximately $28.78 million for the Police Services contract.
▪ Personnel costs: Expenditures represent staff and benefit costs for city employees and are estimated at $16.88 million, approximately $197,000 below budget. ▪ Operations: Expenditures represent the general operating costs of the city, including but not limited to supplies, service fees, repairs and maintenance, etc. The FY 2025–26 expenditures are estimated at $3.57 million, an amount that is in line with the approved budget, coming in at approximately $495,000 below budget. ▪ Debt Service: Expenditure category used to record the annual Revenue Neutrality payment to Sacramento County. This year's payment is estimated at $10.74 million, consistent with budget.
▪ Capital Outlay: While the General Fund does not typically fund capital projects, there are times when the general fund will contribute to a project cost. FY 2025-26 reflects a

City Council Staff Report - Page 3 of 3

negative $249,544 in Capital Outlay due to the reclassification of prior-year General Fund project costs after grant funding became available. ▪ Transfers out: The General Fund budget includes transfers to fund Facilities and Information Technology services, which are tracked through the use of an Internal Service Fund. This expenditure is estimated at $9.94 million and is consistent with budget.

Reserve Recommendations
Included as part of this item, staff is also recommending updates to the city's reserve policy for both the General Fund and CEIF Funds to allow the city's Chief Financial Officer (the CFO) to make annual reserve transfer recommendations. The proposed policy revisions provide greater flexibility in the annual allocation of year-end surplus while maintaining established reserve requirements. As part of the preliminary year-end financial review, the CFO may recommend that available surplus be retained or transferred based on current financial conditions, anticipated funding needs, and City Council priorities. When no alternative allocation is recommended, available surplus will be transferred to the capital funds in accordance with the allocation established in the respective reserve policies. Final surplus amounts identified after completion of the fiscal year close will also be transferred in accordance with the policies.

Based on the estimated ending surplus in both the General Fund and the CEIF Funds, the CFO recommends the following reserve transfers to be included in the FY 2025-26 budget amendment:
▪ $472,372 be retained in the General Fund to maintain the 20% Economic Uncertainty Reserve.
▪ $4,850,000 be transferred into the Capital Facilities Fund for the purchase of the VSP property.

FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
The proposed budget amendments update the Fiscal Year 2025-26 and Fiscal Year 2026–27 budgets for year-end activity and other adjustments reflected in the accompanying Resolution (Attachment 1). The amendments include the use of General Fund surplus to transfer $4.85 million to the Capital Facilities Fund for the VSP property acquisition. The preliminary General Fund results remain subject to final close and audit adjustments.

WHEREAS, if the CFO does not recommend an alternative allocation of General Fund surplus as part of the preliminary fiscal year-end financial results for a given fiscal year, the final available surplus, once determined, shall be automatically appropriated as a transfer out of the General Fund (Fund 100), with fifty percent (50%) transferred to the Capital Facilities Fund (Fund 310) and fifty percent (50%) transferred to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund (Fund 320),, and the corresponding transfers and appropriations shall constitute an automatic budget amendment without further City Council action; and
WHEREAS, the requirements of this General Fund Reserve and Surplus Policy may be deviated from by the City Council when, in its judgment, circumstances warrant a different fiscal response. Any deviation shall be expressly approved by City Council action.
