2. CONVEYANCE FEE BACKGROUND
2.1 Conveyance Fee History
The Sanitary Sewer Conveyance Fee was originally approved by City Council in June 2007. The fee was created to help mitigate impacts on the City’s sewer conveyance system from increased sewer discharges generated by new developments. The basis of the fee utilizes findings in the City’s Sanitary Sewer Master Plan related to the capacity required to accommodate new growth and the capital costs of those capacity improvement projects. This fee only recovers the capital costs of conveyance capacity projects to get sewer discharges from new developments and redevelopments to the San Jose/Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility (RWF), not treatment capacity at the RWF.
The ongoing need for the conveyance fee is driven by the City’s adopted General Plan (projected through 2035), which promotes new development and will continue to lead to increased densities of land uses and sewer discharges.
2.2 Existing Fee Structure
The Sanitary Sewer Conveyance fee was last changed in June 2010 (Resolution No. 10 -7741), setting the onetime residential fee at $4,218 per dwelling unit and the non -residential fee at $8.60 per gallon per day (gpd). No changes to the conveyance fee have been made since 2010 except for adding a provision to address Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in 2018 per Ordinance 1968 and limited increases due to inflation.
The residential conveyance fee is a flat fee that assumes the average residential single-family property discharges 245 gallons per day ( gpd) of sewage. Ordinance 1968 requires the City to charge a pro -rated conveyance fee for ADU ’s. The City assumes an ADU is equivalent to an apartment and charges a conveyance fee equivalent to 62.9% of the fee for a single -family residential home. The 62.9% is based on the ratio of apartment average daily discharge (154 gpd) to that of a single-family residential home (245 gpd).
The 2010 Conveyance Fee Update Report1 utilized the General Plan and the then current Sanitary Sewer Capacity Assessment Study 2 to determine the density of dwelling units per acre and the total number of potential dwelling units. Units already built and units approved but not built were subtracted from the total number of potential units to determine the remaining units to use in the 2010 conveyance fee calculation.
The number of remaining dwelling units were then multiplied by 245 gpd to determine total residential demands. Non-residential demands utilized the remaining development from the General Plan based on the square fee (SF) of building floor space for various developments and applying a gpd/ SF factor to determine total non-residential gpd demand. T he total gpd demand ( residential and non-residential) was divided by the estimated capital costs of capacity improvements needed to serve future development to calculate the cost per gpd.
As mentioned, the residential conveyance fee was calculated by multiplying the cost per gpd by 245 gpd.
Non-residential users are charged on a cost per gpd basis and the conveyance fee is levied at 50% of the

Woodard
&Curran
City of Santa Clara (Project 0012307.00) 4 Woodard & Curran, Inc.
Report – Funding Plan for System Improvements September 10, 2025 cost per gpd. It is not entirely clear how or why the non-residential fee was set at 50% of the cost per gpd but some potential explanations are provided below:
• At the time, the conveyance capacity expansion projects were predominantly driven by residential growth.
• The 2010 fee update report stated “the area of the City where the majority of new residential growth is anticipated does not have sufficient conveyance capacity to get the wastewater from the homes and businesses to the Water Pollution Control Plant.”
• City staff mentioned some areas of the City had large industrial/commercial users that are no longer active. Because of the former industrial uses, large collection/conveyance infrastructure remained with adequate capacity available.
As detailed in the 2010 Conveyance Fee Update Report, the calculated fee (for full cost recovery) was $4,850 per residential dwelling unit and $8.65 per gpd non-residential. To limit the extent of the fee increase, the 2010 report proposed an approximate 25% increase to the 2009 fees which were $3,375 per residential dwelling unit and $6.90 per gpd non-residential. The 2010 conveyance fee proposal was approved and the fees were revised to $4,218 per residential dwelling unit and $8.60 per gpd non- residential (less than full cost recovery).
3. PROPOSED CONVEYANCE FEE STRUCTURE
The information provided in this section reflects a change in the conveyance fee structure. It is proposed that the previous fee based on a cost per gpd of sanitary sewer flow be maintained for non -residential development and changed to a fee based on square footage (SF) for residential development. The proposed change for residential develo pment makes the fee structure consistent with AB 602 in that the proposed fee will be proportional to the square footage of proposed residential units. AB 602, passed September 28, 2021, states “if the study is adopted after July 1, 2022, either calculate a fee levied or imposed on a housing development project proportion ately to the square foota ge of the proposed units , or m ake specified findings explaining why square footage is not an appropriate metric to calculate the fees.” For non-residential development, the existing fee structure accurately represents the proportional demand that the development places on the sanitary sewer system capacity. As examples, a mini-storage warehouse use would generate only 0.02 gpd per square foot of development whereas a fast -food restaurant would generate 0.9 gpd per square foot, a multiple of 45 times the flow of a mini-warehouse. A fee based on the flow generated per square foot is the more equitable method for calculating non-residential fees since the potential range of flows varies widely.
3.1 Current Conveyance Fee Fund Balance
The current conveyance fee fund is accounted for in the City’s Fund 594 and is classified as a development impact fee. The existing conveyance fee Fund 594 tracks the beginning balance, additions from developer fees, earnings from interest income, expendit ures on sewer conveyance projects, and the ending balance.
For the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2025, the Conveyance Fee fund has an ending balance of $58,727,262. A summary of the conveyance fee fund balance is provided below:

The interest income is based on the annual weighted interest rate of the City’s cash pool. In a prior year (FY2023- 24), the interest rate was 1.992%. For subsequent years, interest income is assumed to be earned on the yearly beginning fund balance at a rate of 1.50%.
3.2 Needed Capital Improvements
Sewer capital improvements reflect the capacity improvement project details provided in Task 5 and TM #4 of the current Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update 2025. Woodard & Curran identified thirteen capacity improvement projects in the CIP totaling $100,572,000 1 (in 2024$). In addition to these capacity improvement projects, the CIP also includes several other costs supported by the conveyance fee revenues.
These include Hydraulic Model Maintenance & Support and Technical Analyses to Support System Verification and Hydraulic Model Accuracy for $75,000 and $25,000 (in 2024$), respectively. Also included is Future Master Plan Updates for $950,000 (in 2024$) occurring every seven years with the next update in 2029. These other costs total $1,950,000 (in 2024$) through 2035. A summary table of the CIP projects is provided in Appendix A and a summary of the escalated capital costs is provided in Appendix D. Each CIP project has a trigger categorized either by Long-Term Future Loads or Existing Loads. Note that while Near- Term future loads may be a possible trigger, by analysis, no project in the CIP is triggered in the Near-Term.
For accurate forecasting of CIP costs, Existing Loads projects are assumed to be constructed in FY2028, with pre-construction costs incurred over two years in FY2026 and FY2027. Long-Term Future Loads are assumed to be constructed in FY2035, with pre-construction costs incurred over three years in FY2032, FY2033, and FY2034. Pre-construction activities reflect the engineering and administration cost line items provided in the CIP report. It is assumed that pre-construction costs are incurred evenly over a 2- or 3-year period.
It is important to note that this study is the best estimate of future capital needs. The Capital Improvement Plan in the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update 2025 is the source of that best estimate of future capital needs. Moreover, the list of projects in the CIP is subject to change for several potential reasons, such as, changes in development patterns, changes in land uses not currently envisioned, changes in the collection system and/or hydraulic model due to new information, and other unforeseen change s.
While there are always unknown factors that may change construction timelines, FY2035 was used as the end of the planning horizon to conform with the City’s current General Plan . Both pre -construction and construction cost estimates are escalated annually by a factor of 4% to account for cost increases. Escalated

*Note: Does not include sewer flows from the Cupertino Sanitary District (CuSD) Both tables exclude 5.085 MGD assumed for entitlements in the long-term future flows1 and do not include sewer flows from the Cupertino Sanitary District (CuSD). Based on flow monitoring, it was estimated that existing average dry weather flows from CuSD are approximately 3.45 MGD. Additionally, CuSD and the City have an existing agreement that allows CuSD to discharge a maximum of 13.8 MGD to the City’s sewer system (maximum peak wet weather flow assumed in the model for future conditions.) As such, the total flows identified in Table 3 are not the total flows carried by the conveyance system but are reduced by the amount of the CuSD estimated flows.
The exact timeline of the future flow contributing to the system is not known on a year -by-year basis. For the purposes of this report, the total 5 -year near-term and total 5-year long-term flows were averaged to determine the flows added on a year-by-year basis. For example, the near-term future residential flows total
3.39 MGD resulting in an annual flow of 678,400 gpd for each of the 5 years from FY2026 to FY2030.
1 The entitlement flows of 5.085 MGD reflect approximately 0.374 MGD for residential users and 4.711 MGD for non-residential users. ~

3.4 Summary of Future Square Footage Projection
The future flows presented in Section 3.3 are based upon the near and long -term projected residential Dwelling Unit’s (DU) and square footage of non-residential development as identified in the City’s General Plan. The Residential DUs were converted to square feet using averages from an analysis of planning approvals from 2022, 2023, and 2024 (provided by the City). The average square feet for various residential developments and associated density category are as follows:
• Single Family: 2,650 SF – Low Density
• Condo/Townhouse: 1,660 SF - Medium Density
• High Density (all types): 800 SF – High Density
Table 5 provides the DUs, SF per DU, and total SF in the near-term and long-term for residential development. The values shown are incremental in order to determine the SF attributable to development in the near-term and long-term. As previously mentioned, it is proposed to utilize the future square footage estimates such that the conveyance fee can be a levied per square foot of development in compliance with AB 602.

The capacity improvement projects identified in the CIP are generally required across the entire sewer system to ensure adequate conveyance capacity to serve future development. Also, the total incremental flows due to future development roughly are split 50/50 between residential and non -residential development. For these reasons, the capital costs associated with capacity improvements use an equal 50/50 cost responsibility for residential and non-residential developments. The total escalated capital costs for future capacity of $149,149,000 are reduced by the FY2024-25 conveyance fee ending balance of $58,727,262, resulting in $90,421,391. This is further reduced by the assumed interest earnings on the fund balance from FY2026 – FY2035 of ~ $10,810,000, resulting in $79,611,391. The intent of reducing the capital costs by the existing fund ending balance and interest earnings over the forecast is to ensure the ending fund balance in 2035 is at or near zero such that all fees collected and expended are directly related to the projected development. The total capital cost attributed to residential development is divided by the total near and long -term square footage to calculate the cost per SF for residential fee. The total capital cost attributed to non -residential development is divided by the total additional gpd resulting from development to calculate the cost per gpd for non -residential fee. The following table provides the cost per SF for residential and cost per gpd for non-residential development types when considering the total escalated capital costs (less existing fund balance and less interest earnings ), total near and long -term square footage for residential, and total near and long-term flow (gpd) for non-residential.

3.6 Summary Conveyance Fee Revenues and Cash Flow Projection As described in Section 3.3, near-term future non-residential flows are added annually for 5 years ( fiscal years, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029 , and 2030), as shown in Table 4. Near-term future flows added annually are 318,600 gpd. Long-term future flows are added annually for 5 years ( fiscal years 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034 , and 2035). Long-term future flows added annually are 936,200 gpd. The annual flows are then multiplied by the $6.34 non-residential conveyance fee cost per gpd to determine total conveyance fee revenues from non-residential.
As described in Section 3.4, near-term future residential square footage is added annually for 5 years (fiscal years, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, and 2030), as shown in Table 6. Near -term future square footage added annually is 2,615,400 SF. Long -term future square footage is added annually for 5 years (fiscal years 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, and 2035). Long-term future square footage added annually is 4,395,608 SF. The annual square feet are then multiplied by the $1.14 residential conveyance fee cost per square foot to determine total conveyance fee revenues from residential. Annual conveyance fee revenues (combined residential and non-residential) range from $5,002,000 to $10,947,000 over the forecast period. Reference Appendix B for full detail. The cash flow projections include the actual beginning and ending fund balance in FY2023 , FY2024, and FY2025 . The FY202 6 beginning balance reflects the prior year ending balance and FY202 6 is the year updated conveyance fees start to be collected. As previously mentioned, interest income is assumed to be earned at a rate of 1.50% based on the beginning fund balance for FY2026 and beyond. The ending fund balance in FY2035 is approximately $ 120,000. A summary of the cash flow projection through FY2035 is provided in Appendix C.
3.7 Conveyance Fee Recommendation
The recommended conveyance fee structure and rates are as follows:
• Residential - $1.14 per square foot
• Non-residential - $6.34 per gallon per day (gpd)
The residential rate is recommended to be changed from its current cost per dwelling unit to one assessed per square foot of development. The change makes the fee consistent with AB 602 as further described in Section 3. The methodology in establishing the rate is covered in Sections 3.4 and 3.5. The non -residential fee is recommended to stay on a cost per gpd basis as this accurately captures the wide range of flows dependent on the nature of the use (refer also to Sectio n 3.) The methodology in establishing the rate is covered in Sections 3.3 and 3.5. The conveyance capacity expansion required is linked to the demands that future flow s (associated with new development ) will place on the conveyance system. Therefore, it is reasonable to require future users to pay for the cost of the capacity expansion based on the impact each user contributes to the conveyance system.
The recommended residential rate of $1.14 per square foot is rounded to the nearest cent and will result in a more straightforward application of the rate for any given development application. At this rate, the residential conveyance fee would be $ 3,021 for an average-sized single-family residential dwelling unit (2,650 SF X $1.14 per SF), $1,892.40 for a residential condo/townhouse (1,660 SF X $1.14 per SF), and $912 for residential high density (800 SF X $1.14 per SF). As previously mentioned, the square footage associated with residential developments reflects the averages based upon analysis of planning approvals from 2022, 2023, and 2024. These proposed fees compare to the current fee for residential of $4,218 per dwelling unit. ~

City of Santa Clara (Project 0012307.00) 11 Woodard & Curran, Inc.
Report – Funding Plan for System Improvements September 10, 2025 The proposed fees are between 28.4 and 78.4% lower than the current fee. The change in fee structure to a cost per square footage of residential development allows the City greater flexibility to assess the conveyance fee for a variety of property uses in an equitable manner. For example, a large 10,000 SF single family dwellin g unit likely contributes more to the sewer conveyance system than a small 1,660 SF condo/townhouse.
The non-residential fee would change from the current $8.60 per gpd to $6.34 per gpd reflecting a reduction of 26.2%.
It is important to note that if any unforeseen expenses or larger than expected construction cost increases occur, the conveyance fee fund may not have adequate resources to absorb those costs.
Also, additional funding sources may be required to fund the conveyance improvements if the level of new development square footage and associated sewer flows do not occur as planned. The City should annually compare actual square footage and flow from new developments to those assumed in this report and make any adjustments as needed to the conveyance fee calculations. One example would be if there was a major change in development plans that resulted in lower total near and long-term square footage, the City would want to recalculate the fees with the new projections. On the other hand, if the actual capital costs exceed the initial costs provided in the CIP and escalation factors built into this analysis, the City may want to increase the total revenues to be raised by the fee thereby increasing the per unit fee. Ultimately the City should ensure the conveyance fee fund receives adequate revenues to support the timeline of planned capital expenditures. If there is a shortfall for one or several years, the fee structure may need to be reevaluated and updated to address a reduced inflow of revenues.
3.8 Conveyance Fee Rate Comparison
The following char ts compare the City’s current and proposed sewer conveyance fee to comparable agencies in the region. It is important to note that some agencies do not have separate fees for sewer conveyance capacity and treatment capacity and will show higher amounts in this compa rison. Agencies with an asterisk * may include fees for both sewer collection and treatment or only provide a single sewer development impact fee. Agencies with combined conveyance and treatment capacity charges are shown in Figure 2. Agencies with separate conveyance fees are provided in Figure 3. The proposed conveyance fee of $3,021 (single family residential) would be one of the lowest fees of the agencies surveyed. The charts below provide the estimated conveyance fee for the various residential development types based on the average square feet of those developments (single family = 2,650 SF, condo/townhouse = 1,660 SF, high density = 800 SF). Additionally , the “Santa Clara SF Conveyance & Treatment (Proposed)” includes the combined single family residential fee for sewer conveyance ($3,021) and sewer treatment ($1,187). ~
