SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Finance
Prepared by: Paul Navazio, Interim City Manager City Manager Approval: ______________ TOPIC: PROPOSED UPDATE TO MASTER FEE SCHEDULE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-27 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION UPDATING THE CITY’S MASTER FEE SCHEDULE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-27
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This report has been prepared for the City Council to consider fee increases above the automatic CPIbased adjustment for selected programs and services, as required to meet target cost recovery levels (primarily in Building and Planning services, Public Works, Fire, and Recreation and Childcare programming). Other adjustments to the Master Fee Schedule are proposed to align fee structures with current program and service offerings and eliminate outdated and obsolete fees.

This report summarizes the changes incorporated through the proposed update to the City’s Master Fee Schedule. Attachment 2 provides a redline version of the proposed revisions to the Master Fee Schedule document. Attachment 1 provides “clean copies” of the FY 2026-27 Master Fee Schedule, consistent with the recommendations included in this report.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing an update to the City’s Master Fee Schedule for fiscal year (FY) 2026-27 to adjust fees for selected programs and services where fee increases beyond previously approved increases based on specified Consumer Price Index (CPI) are required to meet and maintain target cost recovery levels.

BACKGROUND:

In December 2022, following a comprehensive rate study, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing updates to its Master Fee Schedule, with approved fees becoming effective July 1, 2023.

Furthermore, the adopted resolution authorizes annual fee increases, based on annual increases in the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward All Urban Consumers’ Price Index (CPI-U), not to exceed 3.0% per year. These automatic (CPI-based) fee increases were established to take effect as follows:

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
• Childcare Fees – August 2026 (Concurrent with the start of the 2026-27 school year) • Recreation Fees – January 1, 2027
• All Other Fees – July 1, 2026
Fee schedule updates ensure that the City operates sustainably and recovers costs for programs and services, including plan review, building and fire inspections, and use of the public right-of-way. State law, including Propositions 26 and 218, provides explicit guidance and restrictions on allowable rates, which are capped at 100% cost recovery for most fees. Some fees in the Master Fee Schedule are set below the level required for full cost recovery, typically when the program or services are deemed a public benefit.

As part of developing the FY 2026-27 budget, staff have reviewed the fees included in the Master Fee Schedule to identify fees where built-in CPI-based annual increases were insufficient to maintain target cost recovery levels. Specifically, the February-to-February increase in the referenced CPI was 2.5%.

Revisions to the Master Fee Schedule fall within specific categories. • Master Fee Schedule revisions requiring City Council action:
o Proposed fee increases that exceed the authorized CPI-based adjustment o New fees recommended to be added to the Master Fee Schedule • Master Fee Schedule revisions that do not require City Council action:
o Fees where no change is proposed
o Fees being increased consistent with the pre-approved CPI-based adjustment (2.5%, rounded to the nearest dollar)
o Fees being eliminated (where the City no longer provides a specific service) While formal City Council action is only required in cases where a) a proposed increase to an existing fee exceeds the authorized CPI-based increase and b) a new fee is being proposed, other changes are highlighted in this report for maximum transparency.

ANALYSIS:

This section of the report summarizes changes being proposed for the FY 2026-27 update to the City’s Master Fee Schedule.

1. General Service Fees

8. Recreation Program Fees
In June 2025, the City retained BerryDunn to conduct a comprehensive Cost of Service study for the Recreation and Childcare Division.. This work was a recommendation in the 2023 Citywide Park and Recreation Master Plan. The study evaluated the full cost of delivering fee-based services across recreation programs, aquatics, facility rentals, childcare, and administrative functions, and assessed how current revenues compare to those costs.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 4
Drawing on financial data from FY 2023 through FY 2026 and projections through FY 2029, the analysis examined personnel, supplies, facilities, and administrative overhead costs directly associated with Division operations. The study also benchmarked the City's fee structures and cost recovery levels against comparable public agencies, assessed the Division's current revenue mix — including contractbased programs, direct fee revenue, and General Fund support — and developed three potential fee adjustment scenarios ranging from least to most aggressive to address projected cost growth. Finally, the study developed recommended program-specific cost recovery ranges as well as related policy recommendations.

The study found that recreation programs have recovered approximately 45–49% of their costs in recent years, with the General Fund providing roughly $2.4 million annually to bridge the gap. Childcare programs have historically achieved full cost recovery, though rising personnel and operational costs are projected to push that recovery level below 100% without fee adjustments.

Consistent with the City's commitment to equitable access and industry best practice, the study recommended cost recovery targets that are intentionally tiered to reflect community benefit rather than a uniform financial standard. Programs providing broad public benefit — such as community gardens, art exhibits, and aquatics — carry lower recovery targets, while programs with a more targeted, individual benefit, such as facility rentals and childcare, are expected to recover closer to or above full cost.

The City also has long-established policies to ensure that the Albert J. Boro Community Center is accessible and affordable for those that live in the Canal neighborhood where the facility is located. This includes setting the rental fees at half the rate of other community centers and an established co-sponsorship program, where nonprofits and community groups can apply for fee waivers to operate programs at low or no cost to the participant. The study affirms these policies as consistent with the recommended approach to cost recovery.

A draft of the Cost of Service Analysis was presented to the Finance Subcommittee on April 12, 2026.

The final report was received by the Park and Recreation Commission on May 21, 2026.

Based on the study's findings, staff are recommending the following changes as part of the FY 2026-27 budget:
• Recreation program fees: 5% annual increase beginning January 1, 2027, continuing through FY 2029
• Childcare program fees: 7% increase beginning August 1, 2026, followed by 6% annual increases through FY 2029
• Kids' summer camp fees: 10% increase effective the Fall 2026 school year • Non-resident surcharge: Adopt a uniform 20% premium across all programs (up from the current 10%)
• Recreation scholarship fund: Establish a dedicated $10,000 annual budget allocation to support access for income-qualified residents
• Recreation Revolving Fund: Transition to the General Fund to better reflect the public-good nature of recreation services
• Program Analysis and Philosophy: Complete and Library & Recreation Program Plan in FY 2026-27 to align programs with equity, accessibility, and community benefit goals. This study will include an assessment of existing programs and an analysis and program philosophy to guide future program and service delivery.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 5
If approved, the recommended fee increases are projected to generate approximately $100,000 in additional annual recreation revenue and $200,000 in additional childcare revenue through FY 2029.

Please refer to Attachment 2, pages 15-17, for proposed revisions to this section.

9. Child Care Fees
Childcare fee increases are based on a review of program costs in relation to cost recovery targets, along with an analysis of comparable rates charged within the market.

Program Area Proposed Change Effective Date
Childcare - Afterschool Programs 7% increase August 1, 2026 Childcare - Summer Kids Camp 10% increase August 1, 2026 A 7% fee increase is proposed to address rising program costs for Afterschool Program Fees, day use, and registration fees. A 10% increase is proposed for Summer Kids Camp program fees. Despite these fee increases, City of San Rafael Childcare program fees are expected to remain lower than those of most regional providers for similar services. Pickleweed Preschool is a State-subsidized, part-day program, so it is not affected by these fee updates.

Please refer to Attachment 2, page 17, for proposed revisions to this section.

10. Public Works Service Fees
Master Fee Schedule revisions within the category of Public Works Services include fees where increases are proposed consistent with CPI-based adjustments, modifications to fee types, and the addition of new fees.

Please refer to Attachment 2, pages 13-14, for proposed revisions to this section.

11. Administrative Citation Fees
Master Fee Schedule revisions within the category of Administration Citation Fees include fees where proposed increases are consistent with CPI-based adjustments.

Please refer to Attachment 2, page 18 for proposed revisions to this section.

12. Sewer and Drainage Fees
Sewer and Drainage services include fees where proposed increases are consistent with CPI-based adjustments.

Please refer to Attachment 2, page 19, for proposed revisions to this section.

PUBLIC NOTICE:

The City provided notice of this public hearing and the proposed update to the Master Fee Schedule, and information was made available to the public in advance of the hearing in accordance with Government Code Sections 66016 through 66018.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 6
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The proposed action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guideline 15378(b)(2) and (4).

NEXT STEPS:

Following adoption of the City’s Master Fee Schedule for FY 2026-27, staff will continue to evaluate fees across all program areas to achieve cost-recovery, as appropriate, as well as identify areas where fees can be established to reduce the burden of general fund tax revenues supporting programs and services benefiting specific users. This work includes undertaking a comprehensive review of Recreation Program Fees and related cost-recovery targets as well as updating the City’s development impact fee program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed changes to the Master Fee Schedule will increase revenue for the City; however, most CPI-based adjustments and increases aimed at maintaining existing cost recovery targets have been factored into the revenue estimates used to develop the FY 2026-27 budget.

OPTIONS:

The City Council has the following options to consider on each of the resolutions:

1. Adopt the resolution as presented.

2. Adopt resolution with modifications.

3. Direct staff to return to the City Council with more information.

4. Take no action.
