STAFF REPORT
APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FROM THE PARAMEDIC EQUIPMENT FUND FOR THE PURCHASE OF AN iSIMULATE ATLAS ALS PEDIATRIC SIMULATION
MAKINIK
October 23, 2024
Background
The Santee Fire Department Paramedic Equipment Fund contains monies that have been donated by community groups to benefit the paramedic service provided by the City of Santee.
This item requests the appropriation of $6,749.69 from this fund to purchase an Altas ALS Pediatric Simulation Manikin from iSimulate. The manikin utilizes an iPad that mimics the display screen on the cardiac monitor that is used by Santee paramedics in the field. A second iPad acts as the control unit, and allows the trainer to design simulations based on realistic patient scenarios. The manikin provides feedback on chest compressions and ventilation support, which will allow our nurse coordinator and paramedics to monitor the effectiveness of their cardiac arrest resuscitation efforts. This real-time feedback will help our paramedics improve the quality and effectiveness of the care they are providing. The manikin also allows paramedics to practice intravenous line placement, intubation, defibrillation, airway management, and other paramedic skills.
The Atlas ALS Pediatric Simulation Manikin is a proprietary training device available only through iSimulate. This product works in conjunction with the REALITi iPad system that is also only available through iSimulate. As part of the Santee Lakeside EMS Authority, Lakeside recently purchased the REALITi iPads and the Atlas Adult Simulation Manikin. Santee will purchase the Atlas Pediatric Simulation Manikin. These purchases will enhance the quality of the continuing education paramedic and emergency medical technician training provided by the SLEMSA Nurse Coordinator and help our personnel train for emergency medical incidents.
Recommendation
Approve the request to appropriate funds from the Paramedic Equipment Fund to purchase one (1) Atlas ALS Pediatric Simulation Manikin from iSimulate. Due to the proprietary nature of this equipment, this request will allow the purchasing agent to dispense with the requirements of bidding to make this purchase.
Financial Impact
The total cost for this purchase is $6,749.69. The cost projections are provided below:
Quote price for the manikin: $6,125.00
Sales Tax: $ 474.69
Shipping: $ 150.00
Total Cost: $6,749.69

Brief Project
History (if
applicable)
The existing Land Use Element was last updated in 2003 and has a horizon year of 2020. The City has been exploring an update to the Land Use Element for several years now, but due to project costs as a small City with a tight budget has been unable to fund the update.
This grant represents and opportunity for the City to be able to fund a much -needed planning document that reflects current planning best practices and aligns with the City’s commitment to housing production and multimodal transportation .

B. Furthering Mobility Hub Implementation
1. D escribe how the project w ill im plem ent a land use strategy that facilitates V M T reduction . Specific examples include: Increasing housing density near transit , adopting transit -oriented development incentive zones for affordable housing, reducing or eliminating parking minimums , or other innovative parking management strategies
The project will implement a land use strateg y that facilitates VMT reduction by supporting mixed -use and transit -oriented development with a focus on micromobility that allows for resident access to proximate services, amenities, and recreational opportunities without the need for a vehicle trip, thus reducing local vehicle trips and vehicle miles traveled .
2. Describe how the project i ncludes zoning for a higher hous ing density than is currently allowed . Include the current zoning designations in the project area .
The City’s commercial zones do not currently allow mixed -use development. The project would allow suitable commercial sites to be redevelop ed into mixed -use housing sites , thus allowing higher housing density than is currently allowed. The City currently has three commercial zoning classifications – OP (Office Professional), CN (Neighborhood Commercial) and CG (General Commercial) – which comprise approxima tely 380 acres.
Assuming, that only half of these sites would be suitable for mixed -use development with a medium housing density of 22 dwelling units per acre, this would result in the opportunity for an additional 4,180 housing units throughout the City . **REVISED #2**

3. Describe how the project increases connectivity between housing, jobs, amenities, and services in relation to public transit . Specifically, include in your answer how the project improves jobs -housing balance and plans for transportation/ mobility improvements to better connect housing to the existing/planned regional transportation network.
The project increases connectivity between housing, jobs, amenities, and services in relation to public transit by supporting mixed -use residential and transit -oriented development along the City’s multimodal corridors (namely Mission Gorge Road) and near the City’s main transit hub (Trolle y Square). Commercially zone properties, wh ere mixed - use s would be anticipated, are established along existing public transit and transportation networks and proximate to existing services and amenities, including retail services, jobs, schools, and parks.
4. Describe h ow the project plans for transportation/ mobility improvements to better connect housing to the existing/planned regional transportation network.
The project will help adjust Land Use Element goals, policies, and objectives to be consistent with the City’s recently adopted Mobility Element and Active Transportation Plan and which support implementation of the City’s planned multimodal -focused transp ortation network. The creation of a mixed -use land use designation or overlay, would allow future residential projects to be better connected to this transportation network.

STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP TO REVIEW AND DISCUSS THE CITY
OF SANTEE DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY AND
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
OCTOBER 23, 2024
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this workshop is to review and discuss the findings and recommendations made in the Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study and the proposed updates to Development Impact Fees (DIFs or Impact Fees) prepared by Harris & Associates.
California’s AB1600, adopted in 1987 and codified as California Government Code Section 66000 et. seq., allows the City to impose Development Impact Fees on new development within the City. DIFs are a one-time charge on new development that is collected and used by the City to cover the cost of capital facilities, infrastructure, vehicles, and equipment that are required to serve new growth.
As provided in the City of Santee Impact Fee Ordinance, Santee collects impact fees from new development to pay for the costs of constructing public facilities which are reasonably related to the impacts of the new development. The City of Santee currently assesses drainage, traffic and traffic signal impact fees on non-residential and residential development, and park-in-lieu and public facilities fees on new residential development. The schedule of established fees may be amended from time to time by resolution of the City Council. They can also be updated administratively by an annual inflation factor that is included as part of the adopting resolution.
The last time the City of Santee conducted a formal Development Impact Fee update was in 2005. Since that time, development impact fees have been automatically adjusted for inflation on July 1 of each year based on the previous year’s increase in the San Diego Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) or by 2.0 percent, whichever is higher.
City staff is recommending an updated Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study and recommended Development Impact Fee Schedule in accordance with the Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), as amended by AB 602.
DISCUSSION
A Development Impact Fee Nexus Study (Nexus Study or Report) is an analysis required by California law that demonstrates the need for additional backbone infrastructure and facilities to serve anticipated growth and identifies the associated costs of those infrastructure facilities and how these costs are recovered through development impact fees.
Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
The Mitigation Fee Act requires that all public agencies satisfy the following requirements when establishing, increasing, or imposing a fee as a condition of approval of a development project:
1. Identify the purpose of the fee.
2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is financing public facilities, the facilities shall be identified.
3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The purpose of the Nexus Study is to demonstrate that all fee components comply with the Mitigation Fee Act. The assumptions, methodologies, facility standards, costs, and cost allocation factors that were used to establish the nexus between the fees and the development on which the fees will be charged are summarized in the Nexus Study.
AB602 requires that when applicable, the Nexus Study identifies the existing level of service for each public facility, identifies the proposed new level of service, and includes an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. The Nexus Study meets this requirement and includes a CIP to be adopted as part of the Nexus Study.
The Nexus Study report prepared by Harris & Associates satisfies the AB1600 Nexus requirements, AB602 requirements, and provides the necessary technical analysis to support the adoption of updated development impact fees.
In September 2024, Harris & Associates and City staff met with the development community through the Building Industry Association (BIA) as part of the process to receive feedback on the draft report and the proposed fee schedule. Harris & Associated provided a presentation to the BIA and provided a draft report following the meeting. After reviewing the draft report, the BIA had no additional comments or questions regarding the report or the proposed development impact fees. In addition, numerous attempts were made to contact representatives of the Association of General Contractors (AGC) but all attempts were unsuccessful as there was no response from the AGC. The BIA and AGC did not have any questions or comments to be considered by the City Council pursuant to Government Code section 66019.
FEE ANALYSIS
The City completed the last nexus study for the Impact Fees in 2005. At that time the list of projects was amended and the fees for both residential and non-residential were updated based upon the revised project list and revised project construction costs; however, the city has not completed a fee study for the Impact Fees since that time. Because of the extended amount of time, the need to update the project list and construction costs, and to comply with Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
AB602, the City began a new nexus fee study for the Impact Fees with Harris & Associates.
Harris & Associates worked with City staff to update the land uses, assumptions in the analysis, project list, construction costs, and ensuring compliance with AB602.
Currently, Santee collects the following Impact Fees: Public Facilities Fee, Traffic Signal Fee, Traffic Mitigation Fee, Drainage Fee, Park In-Lieu Fee, and RTCIP Fee. The RTCIP Fee is updated annually by SANDAG and therefore, was not included in the Nexus Study. Funds from each of these Impact Fees are maintained in separate accounts until expended pursuant to the requirements of each Impact Fee. The description and purpose of each of these Impact Fees are set forth below:
Public Facilities Fee — The Public Facilities Fee is collected from new development for the installation of passive and active park facilities and for the construction of community buildings/recreation facilities. Public Facilities Fees collected from new development projects are maintained in the Public Facilities Fund.
Traffic Signal Fee — The Traffic Signal Fee is collected from new development for the installation of needed traffic signals identified from the City’s traffic signal needs list and the Nexus Study CIP, once adopted. Traffic Signal Fees collected from new development projects are maintained in the Traffic Signal Fund.
Traffic Mitigation Fee — The Traffic Mitigation Fee is collected from new development for the installation of needed improvements identified in the Circulation Element of the City’s General Plan and the Nexus Study CIP, once adopted. Traffic Mitigation Fees collected from new development projects are maintained in the Traffic Mitigation Fund.
Drainage Fee — The Drainage Fee is collected from new development for the installation of needed drainage improvements identified in the City’s latest master drainage facility study and the Nexus Study CIP, once adopted.
Park In-Lieu Fee — The Park In-Lieu Fee is collected from new development for the acquisition and development of park facilities. Park In-Lieu Fees collected from new development projects are maintained in the Park In-Lieu Fund.
The Nexus Study includes the following proposed new development impact fees:
Fire Facilities Fee — The Fire Facilities Fee is a new proposed DIF that will be collected from new development that will be used to help fund the construction of new fire stations and the procurement of apparatus to serve the City.
Long Range Planning — The Long Range Planning Fee is a new proposed fee and will be collected from new development for the purpose of contributing to fund updates to the City’s General Plan Elements and Sustainable Santee Plan. The General Plan is made up of multiple elements that are updated periodically to account for changes in the City over time. The State of California requires that among these elements be included: Land Use, Conservation, Noise, Environmental Justice, Circulation, Open Space, Safety, Air Quality, and Housing. The City of Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
Santee combines the Safety and Environmental Justice elements and additionally includes a Recreation element.
Program Administration — The Program Administration Fee is a new proposed fee to be collected from new development. There have been recent changes in the Mitigation Fee Act which governs the collection of impact fees. AB602 went into effect in 2022 and added Section 66016.5 to the Mitigation Fee Act and imposed several new requirements on impact fees. Three of those requirements directly impact administration of the City’s development impact fee program. First, AB602 requires that nexus studies be updated every eight years, from the period beginning on January 1, 2022. Second, AB602 requires that all fee studies shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units in the development, unless certain findings are made, and a local agency that imposes the fee utilizing this method shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish the reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. Third, AB602 states that large jurisdictions shall adopt a CIP as part of the nexus study.
A two percent (2%) Program Administrative Fee is proposed to be added to fund the costs of the City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting, based on an analysis of the administrative cost necessary to support the DIF Program. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program and the recent additional administration requirements created by AB602.
The proposed 2 percent fee is below the industry standard of 3 to 6 percent.
The Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study provides an in-depth analysis of each of the impact fee categories, as well as, supporting detail of how the proposed development impact fees meet the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act.
SUMMARY OF NEXUS STUDY RECOMMENDATIONS
The following is an overview of the recommended updates to the City’s development impact fee program found in the Development Impact Fee Nexus Study:
1. Adjustments to the existing development impact fees are recommended based on the findings in the Nexus Study.
2. Three new development impact fees are being proposed for Fire Facilities, Long-Range Planning and Program Administration as discussed earlier in this report.
3. A change in the methodology for calculating residential impact fees from a per unit basis to square footage was applied to comply with the proportionality requirement of AB602.
4. It is recommended that annual fee adjustments be based on the Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index instead of the Consumer Price Index. This change would require an update to the City’s Municipal Code.
The proposed Development Impact Fees are provided in the table below. The proposed updates to the fees are described in detail in the Development Impact Fee Nexus Study.
Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
The City recognizes that because there has not been an update to the Nexus study since 2005, the maximum allowable fees would be a considerable increase over the existing fee currently applied to development. The following table compares the proposed fees against the existing fees for residential land uses. Existing residential fees were converted from a fee per dwelling unit to per square foot. Fees for Fire Facilities, General Plan, and Program Administration are new proposed fees so there are no existing fees to compare to.

Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
The table below provides a comparison of the proposed fees against the existing fees for nonresidential land uses. Office and Commercial land uses experience a large increase (144% and 50% respectively), mainly due to the Traffic Signal and Traffic Mitigation fees. The existing fee collected on these two land uses were abnormally low. Furthermore, the assumptions for nonresidential development have changed significantly since the prior fee update, which greatly impacted the analysis.

Staff Report – Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Workshop October 23, 2024
The DIFs may be adjusted periodically to reflect revised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., state or federal grants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square footage, or changes in the land use plan.
In accordance with Santee Municipal Code section 12.30.050, Santee Development Impact Fees are automatically adjusted for inflation on July 1 of each year. The inflation adjustment is two percent or based on the previous calendar years increase in the San Diego Consumer Price Index (CPI-U: All Items) as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, whichever is higher. If the Development Impact Fee Nexus Study is approved, the Municipal Code would need to be updated to adjust fees annually on July 1st based on the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the 20-City Average as reported by Engineering News Record (ENR) for a twelvemonth period or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available.
PUBLIC HEARING REQUIREMENTS
According to the California Government Code, prior to levying a new fee or increasing an existing fee, an agency must hold at least one open and public meeting with at least 30 days’ notice. In addition, notice of the time and place of the meeting, including a general explanation of the matter to be considered, and a statement that the data required by this section is available, shall be mailed at least 14 days prior to the meeting to any interested party who files a written request with the local agency for mailed notice of the meeting on new or increased fees or service charges. Any written request for mailed notices shall be valid for one year from the date on which it is filed unless a renewal request is filed. At least ten days prior to this meeting, the agency must make data on infrastructure costs and funding sources available to the public. Notice of the time and place of the meeting and a general explanation of the matter are to be published in accordance with Section 6062a of the Government Code, which states that publication of notice shall occur for ten days in a newspaper regularly published once a week or more. The new or increased fees shall be effective no earlier than 60 days following the final action on the adoption or increase of the fees.
To meet the above noticing requirements, the Notice of Public Hearing was published in the East County Californian on October 11, 2024, and will be published two additional times on November 1 and November 8, 2024. Staff mailed two letters to interested parties on October 11, 2024. Both the BIA and SDG&E had a written request for notification of fee increases on file with the City Clerk. The Notice of Public Hearing was also posted outside the City Council Chambers on October 11, 2024.

Section 1 Executive Summary
Introduction
The City of Santee (City) is a suburban city located in San Diego County (County). Located in the eastern part of the San Diego metropolitan area, Santee is bordered by El Cajon on the south and southeast, the City of San Diego on the west and northwest, and the County of San Diego on east and northeast. The City is located just 18 miles from the Pacific Ocean and is bisected by the San Diego river, a large greenbelt that includes parks, trails, and over 1,100 acres of natural riparian habitat. Santee is connected to the coastline by State Route 52, a six-lane freeway that connects Interstate 5 in La Jolla to State Route 67. State Route 125 also intersects with State Route 52, forming a transportation hub in the heart of the City.
The City was incorporated in 1980 after beginning as a community of ranches originally named Cowleston after founder George A. Cowles. The City was renamed Santee in 1893 after Milton Santee, a local civil engineer and real estate developer. The City features extensive hiking and mountain biking trails, and the 700-acre Town Center district forms a downtown core comprised of business parks, high-density residential and retail businesses. The Town Center Community Park, located along the San Diego River, features a 15-acre sports field complex and an aquatics center.
As of January 1, 2023, the California Department of Finance (DOF) estimates that the City population is 59,227. As the resident population and non-resident employment in the City increase, there exists a correlating rise in the demand for public infrastructure and services to support growth within the City. California’s Assembly Bill 1600 (AB1600) adopted in 1987 and codified as California Government Code Section 66000 et. seq., allows the City to impose Development Impact Fees on new development within the City. Development Impact Fees (DIFs) are a one-time charge on new development that is collected and used by the City to cover the cost of capital facilities, vehicles, and equipment that are required to serve new growth.
The City of Santee General Plan 2020 (General Plan) was adopted on August 23, 2003 and is comprised of the following nine elements: Land Use; Housing; Mobility; Recreation; Trails; Conservation; Noise; Safety; and Community Enhancement. The City’s Housing Element was adopted in May 2022 in conformance with the 2021-2029 update cycle for jurisdictions in the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) region and was reviewed with the rest of the General Plan to ensure internal consistency. The City’s General Plan and updated Housing Element form the basis of the City’s current development impact fee program along with land use projections and service population derived from the City Planning Department’s land use analysis.
As stated in the Housing Element, most of the City's residentially zoned land has already been developed with a diversity of housing types, including single-family homes, mobile home parks, Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 2 October 2024 City of Santee
townhomes, condominiums and apartments. However, several hundred acres within the Specific Plan District and the Town Center District remain undeveloped and available for future housing development.
The Nexus Study is based on the General Plan Buildout, based on the land use projects derived from the Housing Element and City Planning Department’s land use analysis. As stated in the Land Use chapter of the General Plan, the City's future is tied to the type and amount of new development it can accommodate at General Plan Buildout. Projecting future buildout capacity requires consideration of several variables and is based on assumed densities (dwelling units per acre) and intensity factors that include allowed lot coverage and floor-to-area ratios (FAR), parking requirements, etc. While some of today's developed lands may change in the coming years, most of the assumed City buildout is on remaining vacant lands planned for residential and employmentgenerating uses.
The City’s Housing Element was adopted May 11, 2022. The Housing Element was updated in conformance with the 2021-2029 update cycle for jurisdictions in the SANDAG region and has been reviewed with the rest of the General Plan to ensure internal consistency. As portions of the General Plan are amended in the future, the Plan (including the Housing Element) will be reviewed to ensure that internal consistency is maintained.
The goal of the City is to develop a fee program that achieves the objectives laid out in the General Plan and associated Master Plans, balances fee levels with desired economic growth, and complies with the legal requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act (AB1600/Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), Assembly Bill 602 (AB602), and the standards established by Nollan v. California Coastal Commission (1987) and Dolan v City of Tigard (1994) which require that impact fees have an “essential nexus” to each development project they are charged on and must be charged in “rough proportionality” to the impact caused by the new development.
Nexus Study
Purpose
As development occurs in the City, new backbone infrastructure and capital facilities are required to mitigate the increased demand created by new residents and workers. Revenues from DIFs fund the construction of new backbone infrastructure and capital facilities as well as the related administrative costs through the City’s fee program. The fee program contains separate fee categories for each type of infrastructure and capital facilities. Incorporated in this Nexus Study (Nexus Study, Study or Report) are the following fees:
• Public Facilities
• Traffic Signal
• Traffic Mitigation
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 3 October 2024 City of Santee
• Drainage
• Parks-in-Lieu
• Fire Facilities
• Long Range Planning
• Program Administration
This Report is designed to satisfy the AB1600 Nexus requirements, AB602 requirements, and provide the necessary technical analysis to support the adoption of the updated fees. The fees will be effective 60 days after the City’s final action establishing and authorizing the collection of the fees.
Results
Updated Fees
Pursuant to AB602 guidance, residential development fees are proposed to be assessed on a per square foot basis. To yield consistency across fees assessed on non-residential land uses, nonresidential development fees will be assessed per 1,000 building square foot. The Public Facilities Fee, which funds park and recreation facilities and the Park-in-Lieu, which funds park land acquisition will continue to not be assessed on non-residential development based on the assumption that non-residential development does not generate demand for park facilities. Fees on Accessory Dwelling Units, specialized projects, and rebuild projects are detailed further in Section 12: Implementation and Administration. Table 1-1 shows a summary of the proposed fees.

Table 1-3 compares the Proposed Fees against the Existing Fees for Non-Residential Land Uses.
Office and Commercial land uses experience a large increase (144% and 50% respectively), mainly due to the Traffic Signal and Traffic Mitigation fees. The existing fee collected on these two land uses were abnormally low. Furthermore, the assumptions for non-residential development have changed significantly since the prior fee update, which greatly impacted the analysis.

to fund the costs of the City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program. Industry standard ranges from three to six percent (3-6%) of the fee for the administrative component of a development fee program. The administrative functions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Annual fee adjustments
• Annual fee reporting
• Additional fee reporting every five years
• Posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on the City’s website • Nexus study updates every eight years (an AB602 requirement) • Master Plans necessary to support the Nexus study updates • Staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking, and administration
• Staff and consultant time needed to track credits and reimbursements for improvements constructed in the fee program
In addition to the aforementioned administrative activities, the City is responsible for both (i) using fee revenues to plan for and construct required capital facilities and (ii) pursue other funding sources, as required, to bridge financial gaps between what is collected and the actual cost to construct needed facilities. Furthermore, given the additional fee reporting requirements of AB 516, posting of information per AB 1483, Nexus Study updates every eight years per AB 602, and additional staff time to administer this fee program and the potential for a Master Plan in the future to support a Nexus Study update, a two percent (2%) Program Administration Fee is necessary to fund these additional requirements.
Fee Adjustment Procedures
The DIFs may be adjusted periodically to reflect revised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., State or Federal grants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square footage, or changes in the land use plan. In accordance with Santee Municipal Code section 12.30.050, Santee Development Impact Fees are automatically adjusted for inflation on July 1 of each year. The inflation adjustment is two percent or based on the previous calendar years increase in the San Diego Consumer Price Index (CPI-U:
All Items) as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, whichever is higher. The City will amend the current municipal code to reflect adjusting the fees annually on July 1st of each year using the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the 20-City Average, as reported by Engineering News Record (ENR), for a twelve-month period or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 7 October 2024 City of Santee
Timing of Fee Payment
Fees will be collected at the time the building permit for the project is issued. All residential projects will pay a fee based on the livable square footage of the residential unit(s). For highdensity residential projects (defined in the General Plan as high-density residential development with multi-family dwellings, including apartments and condominiums), the fees will be due at the time of the building permit for each building. For high-density residential projects with communal space, the non-residential communal portion (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees as the impact is assumed to be captured in the residential fees. Areas that are accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be charged impact fees according to use.

Section 2 Legal Context and Methodology
Nexus Requirement Summary
AB1600 was enacted by the State of California in 1987 creating the Mitigation Fee Act - Section 66000 et seq. of the Government Code. The Mitigation Fee Act requires that all public agencies satisfy the following requirements when establishing, increasing, or imposing a fee as a condition of approval of a development project:
1. Identify the purpose of the fee.
2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put. If the use is financing public facilities, the facilities shall be identified.
3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that all fee components comply with the Mitigation Fee Act. The assumptions, methodologies, facility standards, costs, and cost allocation factors that were used to establish the nexus between the fees and the development on which the fees will be charged are summarized in subsequent sections of this Report.
AB602
AB602, which was enacted by the State of California in 2021, amended Sections 65940.1 and 66019 of, and added Section 66016.5 to the Government Code. AB602 requires that if a local agency conducts and adopts an impact fee nexus study after January 1, 2022, the local agency shall follow all of the following standards and practices:
1. Before the adoption of an associated development fee, an impact fee nexus study shall be adopted.
2. When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.
3. A nexus study shall include information that supports the local agency’s actions, as required by subdivision (a) of Section 66001 of the Government Code.
4. If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local agency shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of fees collected under the original fee.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 9 October 2024 City of Santee
5. A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee proportionately to the square footage of the proposed units of the development shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. A nexus study is not required to comply with the requirements to calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionally to the square footage of the proposed units if the local agency makes the following findings:
• An explanation as to why square footage is not appropriate metric to calculate fees imposed on housing development project.
• An explanation that an alternative basis of calculating the fee bears a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. • That other policies in the fee structure support smaller developments, or otherwise ensure that smaller developments are not charged disproportionate fees.
6. Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.
7. All studies shall be adopted at a public hearing with at least 30 days’ notice, and the local agency shall notify any member of the public that requests notice of intent to begin an impact fee nexus study of the date of the hearing.
8. Studies shall be updated at least every eight years, from the period beginning on January 1, 2022.
9. The local agency may use the impact fee nexus study template developed by the Department of Housing and Community Development pursuant to Section 50466.5 of the Health and Safety Code.
This report demonstrates that all fee components comply with AB602. An analysis of level of service for each applicable fee component is summarized in subsequent sections of this report. The methodologies performed to calculate the updated fees ensure that the costs for facilities are proportionately spread between existing and future users. Any existing deficiencies were removed and are not charged to new development.
Capital Improvement Plan
AB602 states that large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan (CIP) as part of the nexus study. This report includes the facilities to be adopted as the City’s CIP for the DIF program in Appendix A.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 10 October 2024 City of Santee
Methodology
Imposed fees require various findings to ensure that a reasonable relationship exists between the fee amount and the cost of the facility or portion of the facility attributable to the new development.
Several methodologies are available to determine fee amounts. The most common methodologies are defined by the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley.
Choosing the appropriate methodology depends on the type of facility for which the fee is calculated and the availability of documentation to support the fee calculation. Following is a discussion of the methodologies available to calculate the separate fee components in this report.
Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory method, also known as the “incremental method” uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the demand on the facilities by the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available.
Planned Facilities Method
The planned facilities method calculates the proposed fee based on the ratio of planned facilities to the increase in demand associated with new development. This method is appropriate when planned facilities have been define by a long range master plan or expenditure plan which includes specific facilities and cost estimates. As the Planned Facilities Method relies on a long range master plan that may change as the plan is implemented, fees based on this methodology need to be regularly updated to remain consistent with the project lists and current plans.
System Plan Method
The system plan method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area. This method is appropriate when calculating a systemwide fee in which new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development. By spreading the costs of an integrated system incorporating the existing facilities and planned facilities costs to the total development in the study area, this ensures that new development only pays their proportional share of the total system costs and is not responsible for rectifying any existing deficiencies.

Section 3 Population and Land Use Assumptions
Land Use Types
To ensure a reasonable relationship between each fee and the type of development paying the fee, different land use types must be distinguished. The land use categories used in this analysis are defined below.
• Single Family Residential (SFR): Detached single-family dwelling units. Includes very low density, low density, and age-restricted units. • Multi-Family Residential (MFR): Attached residential projects. • Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): A second unit, attached or detached from a SFR. • Commercial: All commercial, retail, educational, hotel/motel development, and mixed-use development.
• Office: All general, professional, and medical office development. • Industrial: All manufacturing and warehouse development.
Some developments may include more than one land use type, such as an industrial warehouse with living quarters (a live-work designation) or a planned unit development with both single and multi-family uses. In these cases, the fees will be calculated separately for each land use type.
Growth Forecasts
Growth projections are used as indicators of demand and projected revenue to fund the infrastructure identified in Appendix A. The City’s existing population and Buildout population projections are critical assumptions used throughout the fee sections that follow in this report. The following resources were used as part of this analysis:
• Estimates of total development through Buildout were based on the City’s land use plan from the City’s Housing Element Cycle 2021-2029 and the City’s Planning Department’s land use analysis.
• Population projections were based on the land use projections and the estimated persons per household taken from the US Census American Community Survey. • Existing population estimates are based on the existing land uses and persons per household taken from the US Census American Community Survey. Existing nonresidential worker populations are based on non-residential land use data from the City’s Planning Department and the corresponding employment densities. • Worker projections are based on estimated buildout square footage and the employees per square feet assumption from the USGBC LEED BD+C: New Construction | v4 – Default Occupancy Counts.

Table 3-1 identifies the existing and future residential units and non-residential square feet. The land use information is based on the City’s General Plan, City of Santee Housing Element Cycle 2021-2029, and City planning staff. The Office land use is treated as commercial use in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. For purpose of this analysis, 7.6% of Commercial/ Office Land growth use is assumed as office space based on current GIS land use office and commercial acres.
Table 3-1: Existing and Future Land Uses
Table 3-2 identifies the existing service population. Non-residential buildings are typically occupied less than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per-resident demand. The 0.37-weighting factor for workers is based upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).

Occupant Density
Occupant densities ensure a reasonable relationship between the increase in service population and the amount of the fee. Developers pay the fee based on the square footage of additional housing units or building square feet of non-residential development, so the fee schedule must convert service population estimates to these measurements of project size. This conversion is done using the average occupant density factors by land use type shown in Table 3-4. The residential density factors were derived from the US Census American Community Survey while the non-residential densities were derived from the U.S. Green Building Council Default Occupancy Counts.

Average Unit Sizes
To meet AB602 requirement five (5), this Report calculated the average unit size for single family residential and multi-family units based on the estimated average size of planned new development within each land use category in the City. The average unit size is based on the livable square footage of the residential unit for all residential land uses. This Report derived the unit sizes from the City of Santee building permit records.
Basing the average unit size on livable square footage for all residential units is not only consistent with industry standard for fee calculations, it provides a strong nexus between the impact of the unit and the fee amount. A good example of this industry standard are school fees in California. In California school fees are based on assessable space, which means a quantity equal to the area (expressed in square feet) within the perimeter of a residential structure, not including the carport, walkway, garage, overhang, patio, enclosed patio, detached accessory structure or similar structure.
As stated previously, to accurately capture the impact of a residential project on capital facilities for high-density multi-family residential projects with communal spaces, the communal spaces (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees as the impact is assumed to be captured in the residential fees. Areas that contain employees and are accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be charged impact fees according to use. The non-residential area accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be based on the useable size of that area. The usable square footage is the actual area of a space as measured within the demising exterior walls of that space. Including areas that contain employees that are accessible by the public captures the additional impact these new facilities will have on the backbone facilities in the City.
Table 3-5 summarizes the estimated average size of planned new development within each residential land use category utilized for this study.
Table 3-5: Residential Land Use Average Unit Size
The City will monitor the average size of housing units in the City based on new developments on an annual basis and if the size of units on average are significantly different than anticipated, the fees will be updated as part of the annual update for the fee adjustment to reflect this change in order to ensure the fee program collects the anticipated level of funding.

Section 4 Public Facilities Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the need for additional passive and active park facilities and recreational community buildings to accommodate new development in the City and the fees that are necessary in order to ensure that new development provides adequate funding to meet those needs. This Nexus Study updates the methodology of the existing Public Facilities Fee and recommends updated fees.
The Public Facilities Fee is made up of two components, Park Construction and Recreation Facilities such as community centers. Residential development in the City will pay the Public Facilities Fee at building permit issuance.
For the Park Construction Component, the park cost was estimated based on the existing City adopted standard of five (5) acres of developed parkland per 1,000 residents. The Public Facilities Fee is for facility development cost only and does not include parkland acquisition costs, which is acquired through the Quimby Act which requires developers to either dedicate land to satisfy their parkland requirement or pay an in-lieu fee. Please see Chapter 8 of this study for further detail on the Parks-in-Lieu Fee. Public Facilities Fee applies only to new residential development.
The Public Facilities Fee also includes the cost of recreation facilities. The Public Facilities Fee recreation component is calculated using the Planned Facilities Methodology taking into account the cost of future recreation facilities.
Service Population
The Public Facilities Fee is not applied to non-residential development because workers typically do not use park and community recreation facilities.
Current Level of Service
Per AB602, when applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. Table 4-1 describes the existing Public Facilities provided by the City using facility information and valuation based upon Property Insurance valuation.

Table 4-2: Existing Level of Service per Resident
Planned Level of Service
The City has established a goal for parks at five (5) acres of developed public parkland per 1,000 residents, per the General Plan and Parks and Recreation Master Plan. This analysis is based on the existing City standard of five (5) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, where new development will contribute and develop five (5) acres of developed public parkland per 1,000 residents. New development will be required to meet the standard of five (5) acres of developed public parkland per 1,000 residents with this fee. Applying the General Plan standard to new development is consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act, as outlined in Government Code Section 66001, “A fee shall not include the costs attributable to existing deficiencies in public facilities, but may include the costs attributable to the increased demand for public facilities reasonably related to the development project in order to (1) refurbish existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service or (2) achieve an adopted level of service that is consistent with the general plan”.
As detailed in Table 4-3, the existing level of service is identified and exceeds this City Standard.
In compliance with Government Code Section 66001, the City Standard is utilized for the Park Facilities Fee as it is a City Standard set by the adopted General Plan. New development is expected to pay the fee that results in meeting the City Standard and will not be used to fund existing deficiencies.
The recreation component is new developments’ fair share of planned recreation facilities in the City.

Fee Methodology
The Public Facilities Fee is calculated using the Planned Facilities Methodology taking into account the future recreation facilities and the General Plan Standard taking into account City established park acreage standard new development contributes towards. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the Planned Facility Method “Estimates the costs for future facilities needed to serve new development based on a long range expenditure plan for these future facility costs.” This method is appropriate when planned facilities are mostly for the benefit of new development. Per the “Impact Fee Nexus Template”, the Planned Facilities Methodology estimates the costs for future facilities needed to serve new development based on a long range expenditure plan for these future facility costs. This should include identifying what types of public facilities will be needed in the future to serve new development and their associated costs, which may include refurbishment of existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service or achieving an adopted level of service that is consistent with the General Plan.
The park facilities component uses the Planned Facility Methodology based on the General Plan Standard methodology for calculating the fee. The fees are based on the future developed public parkland needed to maintain the adopted General Plan standard of five (5) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents.

Table 4-7: Public Facility Cost per Resident
Fee Summary
The Public Facilities Fee per unit is calculated by multiplying the cost per capita by the average number of residents per unit type (density). The fee per unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot by taking the total fee per unit and dividing by the estimated average unit size for each land use to arrive at the fee per square foot. These calculations are shown in Table 4-8.

Capital Improvement Projects and Revenue Projections
Based upon the projected new population growth, new development will contribute roughly 74 acres to the City’s park system. Given the nature of new development and the fact that neighborhood parks are typically built and dedicated by the developer, the exact identification of future parks are difficult to predict.

Santee Municipal Code (SMC) Chapter 12.40, Park Lands Dedication establishes the provisions for dedication of land, payment of in-lieu fee or a combination of both for the purpose of providing park and recreation facilities to serve future residents of a subdivision development. In most cases, developers build new neighborhood parks on behalf of the City as a condition of residential subdivision construction and to fulfill their Quimby park acreage dedication requirements.
Developer-built parks can often be delivered faster than City-built park projects due to economies of scale as developers are already building within their subdivisions and the constraint in City staff resources. Developers who build and dedicate parks, will be given credits against their park component of the Public Facilities Fee. Due to this requirement, it is not possible nor necessary to include a CIP list for neighborhood parks. Should the park construction component of the Public Facilities Fee be collected, the City will allocate these to new parks through the City’s CIP process.
As for Community Parks, developers typically pay the fee instead of building the community park due to the large size and advanced planning community parks require, however in some cases community parks are built by developers. The Fanita Ranch Specific Plan includes 31.2 acres for a community park, which includes 19.7 active acres and 11.5 passive community park. Per the public park credit provisions set forth in City’s Municipal Code Section 12.40.110, developed park land dedicated to and maintained by the City of Santee will receive up to 100 percent park credit.
Developed park land maintained by an HOA and trail systems will receive up to 50 percent credit per the private park credit provisions in SMC Section 12.40.100. Per the Fanita Ranch Specific Plan, the developer plans to dedicate this land. The Community Park is included in the CIP, which is Table A-1 in Appendix A.
Table 4-9 summarizes the anticipated Public Facilities Fee revenue. The revenue will be available to expand the City’s Park and Recreation facilities to meet the needs of new residents. Based on the population estimates in this Nexus Study and using the City General Plan standard of 5 acres per 1,000 residents, it is anticipated that approximately 74.08 additional acres of parks facilities are needed to meet the needs of the City, plus recreation facilities, at Buildout at a cost of approximately $58 million.

Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 22 October 2024 City of Santee
Nexus Requirement Summary
The Public Facilities Fee component of the DIF program meets the Mitigation Fee Act Requirements, as described in this section.
Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.
The purpose of the Public Facilities Fee is to fund the park and recreation facility needs generated by new development in the City. Each new resident creates a demand for additional park and recreation facilities. The City’s adopted standard is to provide 5 acres of parkland for each 1,000 residents. In order to accommodate these needs, new park facilities will be built and/or existing park facilities will be expanded. The City has planned future recreation facilities and each new resident creates a demand for additional recreation facilities. In order to accommodate these needs, new recreation facilities will be built or existing recreation facilities will be expanded. Table 4-6 and Table 4-7 calculates the parks and recreation cost per capita based on the City standard for parks and the estimated construction cost and planned recreation facilities.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The Public Facilities Fee will be used to fund new park and recreation development in order to meet the City’s General Plan and Parks and Recreation Master Plan standards discussed in this chapter. Park expansion is necessary to meet the City’s adopted standards of five acres of parkland for each 1,000 new residents. In most cases, developers build new neighborhood parks on behalf of the City as a condition of residential subdivision construction and to fulfill their Quimby park acreage dedication requirements. The location of the neighborhood parks will be determined based on the location of the new development project, as they are typically located within each development. The recreation component of the fee will be used to fund new or expand existing recreation facilities, such as the planned Community Center. The City has 31.2 acres of community park planned in Fanita Ranch, and it is anticipated that the developer will dedicate this acreage for the City to develop. As future developments come online and the Public Facilities Fee is collected, the City will identify future community park sites to program the remaining acres. The anticipated fee revenue to fund these facilities at Buildout is shown on Table 4-9.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
The fee will be used to fund new parks and recreation facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents in the City. New residential development generates additional residents which increases the demand for park and recreation facilities. The Public Facilities Fee is calculated using the City’s General Plan standard of five (5) acres of park per 1,000 residents and planned recreation facilities. Residential development is responsible for paying its fair share to meet the City’s standard and the cost of recreation facilities attributable to new development. Non-residential uses do not pay the fee since they do not generate additional residents and workers have minimal impact on the City’s park and recreation system.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 23 October 2024 City of Santee
Table 4-6 and Table 4-7 calculate the cost per capita and then allocates the cost to each development type based on the estimated persons per household. Table 4-8 then calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size. By basing the fee on the size of the unit and the estimated number of new residents that is anticipated to be generated by the addition of that square footage, the fee is directly correlated to the increased need for new parks.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new residential development is anticipated to generate new residents. The addition of new residents creates the need for new parks and recreation facilities to meet the City’s General Plan park standard of five (5) acres per 1,000 residents and planned recreation facilities. The fee is directly correlated to the number of new residents expected to be generated by each type of development. Non-residential development does not pay for parks as non-residential developments do not generate a significant demand for park and recreation facilities. Residential development pays its fair share based on the estimated persons the new unit is expected to generate.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
As new residential units are constructed, new park facilities are necessary to meet the City’s General Plan standard of 5 acres of park per 1,000 residents. New recreation facilities are necessary based on new developments fair share of the planned facilities. The Public Facilities Fee is calculated by totaling the Recreation (Table 4-6) and Park Facilities (Table 4-7) costs per resident.
The cost per capita is then allocated to each residential land use based on the persons per household each unit is expected to generate and divided by the average unit size in square feet to determine the fee per square foot as shown in Table 4-8. Since the need for park and recreation facilities is based on the number of new residents, calculating the fee based on the number of persons each unit is expected to generate and converting to a fee per square feet, ensures that each new residential unit is paying only its fair share of the required facilities.
By determining the fee based on the estimated new residents that would be generated by new development, each new residential unit is paying only its fair share of the facilities required. Nonresidential land uses are not assessed a Public Facilities Fee as non-residential development will not generate an increase in park and recreation facility demand.

Section 5 Traffic Signal Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the City’s Traffic Signal Fee. The proposed Citywide Traffic Signal Fee covers the costs of maintaining existing traffic signals and construction of new traffic signals to meet the needs of new development. The Traffic Signal Fee uses the System Plan Method to calculate the fee. The System Plan Method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area.
As shown in Table 5-1, the future traffic signal facilities costs were developed by the City based on facilities necessary to serve new development.

Table 5-2: Existing Traffic Signal Facilities (page 2 of 2) Trips
To calculate the Traffic Signal Fee and the Traffic Mitigation Fee, this study uses Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) common Trip Generation Rates sourced from the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition as the base for trip generation assumptions. It is based on the average daily trips which means the total of all one-direction vehicle movements with either the origin or destination inside the study site that includes existing, primary, pass by, and diverted linked trips and is calculated in accordance with the procedures contained in Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition published by the ITE. For the Traffic Signal Fee, these assumptions are used to calculate the total cost per capita. For the Traffic Mitigation Fee, these assumptions are also used to calculate the proportion of planned facilities that are attributable to new development.
Table 5-3 identifies the Trip Rates per land use. The trip rates are multiplied against the land uses from Table 3-1 in Section 3 to calculate the vehicle trips.

Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 29 October 2024 City of Santee
Service Population
Demand for traffic signal facilities is based on the total trips generated at Buildout conditions. The Traffic Signal Fee utilizes the land use trip generation assumptions presented in Table 5-6 for the various residential and non-residential land uses based on Institute of Transportation Engineers common Trip Generation Rates (average daily trips) sourced from the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition.
Cost Summary
The Traffic Signal Fee will fund the expansion and construction of new traffic signal facilities necessary to serve new growth. These facilities will be necessary to meet the demands of the growth of the City at Buildout. The cost for the Traffic Signal Fee is based on the integrated cost of the current and future facilities. As new development occurs, there are additional trips associated with the new development, which correlates to a need for additional traffic signal improvements.
The Nexus Study acknowledges that the existing development will also benefit from these transportation improvements once they are constructed and therefore existing development has a fair share of these improvements. New development also benefits from the existing network of traffic signals and improvements and therefore new development will fund the integrated system of facilities at the existing standard attributable to new development.
The City will review the potential funding sources for traffic signal projects to determine the appropriate funding mechanisms as projects move forward as well as identify funding sources through the CIP process and identify action plans in updates to the City's Strategic Plan. It is important for new development to fund their fair share of their impact on transportation facilities.
Fee Methodology
The Traffic Signal Fee uses the System Plan Method to calculate the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area. This method is appropriate when calculating a systemwide fee in which new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development. By spreading the costs of an integrated system incorporating the existing facilities and planned facilities costs to the total development in the study area, this ensures that new development only pays their proportional share of the total system costs and is not responsible for rectifying any existing deficiencies.
The Traffic Signal Fee is calculated based on the cost per trip generated by existing and new development. The total cost of the facilities identified in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 is spread over the anticipated total number of trips at buildout (existing and generated by future development), as shown in Table 5-6, to calculate the cost per trip. The cost per trip is calculated by taking the total cost of traffic signal facilities, calculating the existing trips and future additional trips, dividing the total cost by the total trips to derive at a cost per trip. This calculation is shown in Table 5-7.

Table 5-7: Traffic Signal Facilities Cost per Vehicle Trip The Traffic Signal Fee calculated on Table 5-7 is the maximum justifiable fee using the System Plan method, but Table 5-8 shows the fee calculation for the fee used in this analysis based on the facilities necessary to serve new development. The Traffic Signal Fee used in this analysis is calculated based on the cost per trip generated by new development. The total cost of the facilities identified in Table 5-1 is spread over the anticipated total number of trips at buildout (generated by future development), as shown in Table 5-5, to calculate the cost per trip. This calculation is shown in Table 5-8.

for the reduced trip rates generated by projects meeting the above characteristics, an additional trip adjustment factor is applied to new residential land uses meeting the following criteria:
1. The housing development is located within one-half mile of a transit station and there is direct access between the project and the transit station along a barrier-free walkable pathway not exceeding one-half mile in length.
2. Convenience retail uses, including a store that sells food, are located within one-half mile of the housing development.
3. The housing development provides either the minimum number of parking spaces required by the local ordinance, or for residential units, no more than one onsite parking space for zero to two bedroom units, and two onsite parking spaces for three or more bedroom units, whichever is less.
For purposes of this reduction, the definition of transit station shall be defined by California Government Code Section 65460.1, “Transit station” means a rail or light-rail station, ferry terminal, bus hub, or bus transfer station. Also, a “housing development” shall be defined by California Government Code Section 66005.1, which is a development project with common ownership and financing consisting of residential use or mixed use where not less than 50 percent of the floorspace is for residential use.
Commercial trips often coincide with other trips (i.e., Person A stops by the store on their way home from work, Person B stops by a restaurant after grocery shopping, etc.) This “pass-by” trip reduction amount is factored into the Commercial trip generation estimates (Table 5-3) as well as the fee for commercial land use in Table 5-9.

the improvements is spread to each land use based on the number of trips generated by each land use. This correlation to trips ensures that each new development pays their fair share of the transportation costs.
The cost per trip calculations is shown in Table 5-8. The fee calculation is shown in Table 5-9.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional trips that incrementally adds to the need for new traffic infrastructure and facilities to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and ensure that traffic facilities can accommodate the increased demand. These facilities are provided by the City. Each new residential and nonresidential development pays an impact fee based on the additional trips that is expected to be generated by the new development. To accommodate these additional trips, new traffic signal improvements will be needed city-wide. Utilizing trips generated by each development ensures that each type of development pays their fair share of the required new traffic signal facilities. This calculation is shown in Table 5-9.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The Traffic Signal fee is based on the System Plan Method, which estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities. The traffic signal facilities that are necessary for the new development are summarized in the planned improvements presented in Table 5-1. The existing traffic signal facilities are shown on Table 5-2. Each land use pays their fair share of costs based on the number of trips generated by that land use as shown in Table 5-7. The Traffic Signal Fee is calculated based on the cost per trip generated by existing and new development divided by the Buildout service population. The total cost of the facilities identified in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 is spread over the anticipated total number of trips at buildout (existing and generated by future development), as shown in Table 5-6, to calculate the cost per trip. Utilizing trips ensures that each development pays their fair share of the cost.

As shown in Table 6-1, the future traffic mitigation facilities were developed by the City of Santee based on facilities necessary to serve new development. Facilities are based on the adopted FY 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program Budget. The City does not anticipate any future major Traffic Mitigation improvements beyond the facilities identified in the CIP. If the City does determine future Traffic Mitigation improvements need to be added to the fee program, the fee would need to be updated.

Service Population
Demand for traffic mitigation facilities is based on the additional trips that will be generated by new development through Buildout conditions. The Traffic Mitigation Fee utilizes the land use trip generation assumptions presented in Table 6-2 for the various residential and non-residential land uses based on Institute of Transportation Engineers common Trip Generation Rates (PM Trip Rate) sourced from the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition.
Table 6-2: Future Additional Trips
Cost Summary
The Traffic Mitigation Fee will fund the expansion and construction of new traffic mitigation facilities necessary to serve new growth. These facilities will be necessary to meet the demands of the growth of the City at Buildout. The percent attributable to new development is calculated as the proportion of new vehicle trips that will be generated by new growth in the City over the total trips at buildout, which is shown below. The cost attributable to the Cottonwood Avenue River Crossing project is 100 percent as this improvement is surrounded by undeveloped land and it is necessary to support new development.

Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 37 October 2024 City of Santee
As new development occurs, there are additional trips associated with the new development, which correlates to a need for additional traffic mitigation improvements. The Nexus Study acknowledges that the existing development will benefit from these transportation improvements once they are constructed and therefore existing developments’ fair share of the improvements (based on trip generation rates) is allocated to existing development and is not spread to new development.
The City will review the potential funding sources for transportation projects to determine the appropriate funding mechanisms as transportation projects move forward as well as identify funding sources through the CIP process and identify action plans in updates to the City's Strategic Plan. It is important for new development to fund their fair share of their impact on transportation facilities. As new development will impact the existing transportation infrastructure, this is a conservative approach that does not burden new development with any existing deficiencies.
Fee Methodology
The Traffic Mitigation Fee uses the Planned Facilities Method to calculate the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the Planned Facilities Method calculates the proposed fee based on the ratio of planned facilities to the increase in demand associated with new development. This method is appropriate when planned facilities have been define by a long range master plan or expenditure plan which includes specific facilities and cost estimates. As the Planned Facilities Method relies on a long range master plan that may change as the plan is implemented, fees based on this methodology need to be regularly updated to remain consistent with the project lists and current plans.
In order to distribute the share of project costs to each land use type, the total trips generated by new development must be calculated. To calculate the total number of new trips attributable to new development within the City Buildout, the growth projections, detailed in Chapter 3, are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates as derived from the Institute of Transportation Description Source Value

Engineers (ITE). The Traffic Mitigation Fee is calculated based on the cost per trip generated by new development. The total cost of the facilities attributed to new development identified in Table 6-1 is spread over the anticipated number of trips that will be generated by future development (as shown in Table 6-2) to calculate the cost per trip.
Residential trips are calculated by multiplying the anticipated growth in residential units by the corresponding density’s trip generation rates. Non-residential trips were calculated by multiplying the anticipated growth in 1,000 building square feet with the corresponding trip generation rates.
Commercial trips often coincide with other trips (i.e., Person A stops by the store on their way home from work, Person B stops by a restaurant after grocery shopping, etc.). Pass-by trips are a subset of trips traveling on a road that stops by a near-by commercial development. They are not new trips. The ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition notes all Retail and Services land uses are entitled to a "pass-by" trip reduction between forty to sixty percent (40-60%). This study assumes a fifty percent (50%) trip reduction for commercial.
To calculate the total number of new trips attributable to new development through Buildout, the growth projections, detailed in Chapter 3, are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates identified in Table 6-2.
Table 6-3 calculates the total number of existing trips attributable to existing development. The existing land uses and employees, detailed within Chapter 3, are multiplied by the corresponding trip generation rates identified in Table 6-3. Table 6-3 displays the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition trip generation rates for the land use types within this fee program. The existing trips are calculated to determine future developments responsibility as the total transportation cost is allocated between existing and future trips.

The cost per trip is calculated by taking the total cost of the improvements identified as attributable to future within the City and dividing it by the future trips to determine the cost per trip. This calculation is shown in Table 6-4.
Table 6-4: Traffic Mitigation Facilities Cost per Vehicle Trip Fee Summary
The Traffic Mitigation Fee for new development is calculated by multiplying the cost per trip identified in Table 6-4 by trip generation rate for each land use. The residential fee per unit is converted to a fee per square foot by dividing the fee per unit by the unit size estimated in Table 3-4. Table 6-5 shows the proposed new Traffic Mitigation Fees for new development.

transportation studies, measurable trip reductions result for projects that are near transit stations and where there are a diversity of land uses that promote connectivity and walkability. To account for the reduced trip rates generated by projects meeting the above characteristics, an additional trip adjustment factor is applied to new residential land uses meeting the following criteria:
4. The housing development is located within one-half mile of a transit station and there is direct access between the project and the transit station along a barrier-free walkable pathway not exceeding one-half mile in length.
5. Convenience retail uses, including a store that sells food, are located within one-half mile of the housing development.
6. The housing development provides either the minimum number of parking spaces required by the local ordinance, or for residential units, no more than one onsite parking space for zero to two bedroom units, and two onsite parking spaces for three or more bedroom units, whichever is less.
For purposes of this reduction, the definition of transit station shall be defined by California Government Code Section 65460.1, “Transit station” means a rail or light-rail station, ferry terminal, bus hub, or bus transfer station. Also, a “housing development” shall be defined by California Government Code Section 66005.1, which is a development project with common ownership and financing consisting of residential use or mixed use where not less than 50 percent of the floorspace is for residential use.
Commercial trips often coincide with other trips (i.e., Person A stops by the store on their way home from work, Person B stops by a restaurant after grocery shopping, etc.) This “pass-by” trip reduction amount is factored into the Commercial trip generation estimates (Table 6-2) as well as the fee for commercial land use in Table 6-5.
Revenue Projections
Table 6-6 summarizes the anticipated Traffic Mitigation Fee revenue collected at Buildout. The revenue will be used to fund the traffic mitigation facilities shown on Table 6-1.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 41 October 2024 City of Santee
Table 6-6: Anticipated Traffic Mitigation Fee Collection at Buildout Nexus Requirement Summary
The proposed Traffic Mitigation Fee meets the Mitigation Fee Act Requirements, as described in this section.
Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.
The purpose of the Traffic Mitigation Fee is to fund new developments’ share of planned traffic mitigation facilities included in Table 6-1 to serve future development. In order to accommodate this need, new facilities must be built and/or existing facilities expanded.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The fee will be used to fund the planned traffic mitigation facilities identified in Table 6-1 and detailed in Appendix B, that are necessary to serve increased demand. The improvements were identified through the current City Adopted FY 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program Budget, City identified projects, and additional City discussions, as the facilities that are required to mitigate the impact of new development in the City.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
The Traffic Mitigation Fee will be used to fund new developments’ share of the new traffic mitigation facilities and improvements that are necessary to serve the increase in transportation demand due to new development. The cost of the improvements is spread to each land use based on the number of trips generated by each land use. This correlation to trips ensures that each new development pays their fair share of the transportation costs.

The cost per trip calculations is shown in Table 6-4. The fee calculation is shown in Table 6-5.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional trips that incrementally adds to the need for new traffic infrastructure and facilities to serve the increased residents and businesses within the City and ensure that traffic facilities can accommodate the increased demand. These facilities were identified through City discussions based on future growth of the City. Each new residential and non-residential development pays an impact fee based on the additional trips that is expected to be generated by the new development. To accommodate these additional trips, new traffic mitigation improvements will be needed city-wide. Utilizing trips generated by each development ensures that each type of development pays their fair share of the required new traffic mitigation facilities. This calculation is shown in Table 6-4.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The transportation facilities that are necessary for the new development are summarized in the planned improvements presented in Table 6-1. Each land use pays their fair share of costs based on the number of trips generated by that land use as shown in Table 6-2. Existing development is netted out from the analysis based on existing trips (calculated on Table 6-3), to ensure that future land uses only pays their fair share of the traffic improvements, as calculated in Table 6-1. The cost per trip is then spread to each land use based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers common Trip Generation Rates (PM Trip Rate) sourced from the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition rates. This calculation is shown in Table 6-4. Utilizing trips ensures that each development pays their fair share of the cost.

Section 7 Drainage Fee
Background
The Drainage Fee is collected for the purpose of maintaining and servicing the existing drainage facilities in the City. The Drainage Fee is calculated using the Existing Inventory Methodology.
The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available. An inventory of existing drainage facilities was provided by the City using GIS inventory of drainage facilities the City currently operates and maintains.
Current Level of Service
The current level of service is based on the value of the Drainage Facilities as shown below in Table 7-1.
To determine the current level of service, the value of the existing drainage facilities the cost per impervious acre is calculated in Table 7-2 by totaling the costs associated with the existing drainage facilities, adding the existing fund balance, and dividing by the existing developable impervious acres.

Table 7-2: Drainage Facilities Cost per Impervious Acre Planned Level of Service
The City’s drainage facilities serve both residents and businesses. Demand for services and associated facilities, is based on the City’s impervious acres. The City plans to maintain the current level of service cost per impervious acre, as shown on Table 7-2, with appropriate participation from new development. Per AB602, when applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. This Nexus Study identifies the existing level of service per impervious acre and based on the Nexus Study analysis and discussions with City staff, it has been deemed appropriate to maintain the existing level of service. As described below, this ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.
Fee Methodology
The Drainage Fee uses the Existing Inventory Method methodology for calculating the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, with the Existing Inventory Method “New development will fund the expansion of facilities at the same standard as currently used to service existing development.” The fees are calculated based on the value of current facilities divided by existing impervious area. Future development will fund facilities at this same standard, which assumes that future facilities will be needed at the same level as current drainage facilities.

Fee Summary
The Drainage Fee is distributed across the various land uses by multiplying by the impervious factor assumptions to calculate a fee per acre, which is then divided by residential unit density and non-residential floor area ratio assumptions to calculate the fee per unit. This fee per unit is then divided by the average unit assumption for Single Family and Multi-Family to reach a fee per square foot for residential land uses and a fee per 1,000 square feet for non-residential land uses (as shown in Table 7-3).

Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.
The purpose of the Drainage Fee is to fund the Drainage Facilities needs generated by new development in the City, such as new or expanded drainage facilities in the City. Each new resident and worker create additional impervious acres which creates a demand for additional drainage facilities. In order to accommodate these needs, new drainage facilities will be built and/or existing facilities will be expanded.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The Drainage Fee will be used to fund new drainage facilities in order to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The anticipated new facilities are show on Table 7-4 and the associated fee revenue at Buildout is shown on Table 7-5, which will be used to fund new or expanded drainage facilities.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
The fee will be used to fund new drainage facilities that are necessary to serve the increased impervious acres in the City. New development generates additional impervious acres which increases the demand for drainage facilities. The existing inventory method uses a facility standard based on the ratio of existing facilities to the existing service population on a cost per unit or cost per square foot basis. Under this approach, new development funds the construction of new facilities or the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development.
By definition, the existing inventory method ensures that no facility deficiencies are spread to future development.
Table 7-1 identifies the existing drainage facilities and Table 7-2 calculates the existing cost per impervious acre. The cost per impervious acre is then allocated to each development type based on the impervious factor. The cost per acre is then multiplied by the residential density (dwelling units per acre) and the non-residential floor area ratio for a fee per unit for residential and per 1,000 square feet for non-residential. Finally, the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 square feet is applied to the fee. Table 7-3 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for nonresidential. Calculating the fees based on the anticipated impervious acres ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development planned to be built.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new development is anticipated to generate additional impervious acres that require drainage facilities. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for new or expanded drainage facilities to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The Drainage Fee is based on the Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 49 October 2024 City of Santee
additional impervious acres created by the new development and the impervious factor for each land use. This ensures that the need for the facilities is directly related to a particular development’s impact.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
As new development is constructed, new or expanded drainage facilities are needed to meet the City’s existing level of service for drainage facilities. The fee is based on the Existing Inventory Method.
The existing level of service is calculated by taking the total drainage facilities cost and dividing it by the existing impervious acres to derive the existing level of service cost per impervious acre as shown in Table 7-2. The fee for each land use is then calculated by multiplying the cost per impervious acre by the impervious factor assumptions to calculate a fee per acre, which is then divided by residential unit density and non-residential floor area ratio assumptions to calculate the fee per unit. This fee per unit is then divided by the average unit assumption for Single Family and Multi-Family to reach a fee per square foot for residential land uses and a fee per 1,000 square feet for non-residential land uses as shown in Table 7-3. Since the need for the facilities directly correlates to the addition of new residents and workers, determining the fee based on the projected equivalent residents for each land use ensures that new development pays for their fair share of the required future facilities.

Section 8 Parks-in-Lieu Fee
Background
Parkland acquisition under the Quimby Act allows for developers to either dedicate land to satisfy their parkland requirement or pay an in-lieu fee. Parks-in-lieu fees are not charged on nonresidential land uses.
Residential development in the City will pay the Parks-in-Lieu Fee at building permit issuance.
The park cost was estimated based on the existing City adopted standard of five (5) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents. Parkland acquisition under the Quimby Act requires developers to either dedicate land to satisfy their parkland requirement or pay an in-lieu fee. The in-lieu fee is dependent upon appraised land cost and thus, the amount should be agreed upon between the City and the developer when the land dedication is triggered. The City has an existing Quimby in-lieu fee (also known as a Park In-Lieu Fee). As noted in the General Plan, Park In-Lieu Fees stem from the Quimby Act. Quimby provides for the dedication of land for parks, or in certain instances (i.e. a subdivision is small), a fee in-lieu of dedicating land is provided. It is important to note that for the Park In-Lieu Fee, infill projects are exempt, and the fee applies primarily to parkland and land improvements in new neighborhoods.
Parkland
AB1191, also known as the Quimby Act, was established by the California State Legislature in 1965 and codified as California Government Code Section 66477. The Quimby Act outlines the requirements for imposing fees or land dedication for park purposes with a minimum of three (3) acres and a maximum of five (5) acres of green space per 1,000 residents. The Quimby Act allows the legislative body of a city or county, by ordinance, to require the dedication of land or impose a requirement of the payment of fees in-lieu thereof, or a combination of both, for park or recreational purposes as a condition to the approval of a tentative tract map or parcel map.
Currently, per the City’s municipal code 12.40.060, the applicant for any development must, as a condition of approval of the development, dedicate land, pay fees in lieu of land, or a combination of both, pursuant to that chapter for the purpose of providing park or recreation facilities to serve future residents of such development. As stated in municipal code 12.40.070, the City imposes the in-lieu fee a Parks Land Dedication based on five (5) acres per 1,000 residents or the payment of the in-lieu fee. The amount of a fee in lieu of land to be paid pursuant to this municipal code chapter is set by resolution of the City Council and is based on the City-wide average of land available for park purposes within the urbanized area of the City, plus the estimated cost for developing said land into usable parks. The fee is automatically adjusted for inflation on July 1 of each year. The inflation adjustment is two percent or based on the previous calendar year's increase in the San Diego Consumer Price Index (CPI-U: All Items) as published by the Bureau of Labor Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 51 October 2024 City of Santee
Statistics, whichever is higher. The fees received under this chapter are deposited in the park in lieu fund and must be used for the purchase, development and/or rehabilitation of park and recreational facilities.
Service Population
The Parks-in-Lieu Fee is not applied to non-residential development because workers typically do not use parkland.
Current Level of Service
Per data provide by the City, the City has a total of 315.14 acres of developed parkland as shown in Table 8-1.Based on a population of approximately 58,086, there are 5.43 acres of existing parkland per 1,000 persons/residents as shown in Table 8-2. Thus, the current parkland is more than the standard of 5 acres per 1,000 people on a citywide level.

Planned Level of Service
AB1191, also known as the Quimby Act, was established by the California State Legislature in 1965 and codified as California Government Code Section 66477. The Quimby Act outlines the requirements for imposing fees or dedicating land for park purposes with a minimum of three (3) acres and a maximum of five (5) acres of green space per 1,000 residents. The Quimby Act authorized cities to require dedication of land or impose a requirement of the payment of fees inlieu thereof, or a combination of both, for park and recreational purposes as a condition of approval of a tentative map or parcel map. Per the City’s municipal code section 12.40.060, except as otherwise provided in that section, only the payment of fees is required for developments containing 50 or fewer parcels, except that when a condominium project, stock cooperative, or community apartment project, as those terms are defined in Sections 4105, 4125, and 4190 of the Civil Code, exceed 50 dwelling units, dedication of land may be required, even though the number of parcels may be less than 50. An applicant for a development containing 50 or fewer parcels may offer to dedicate land in lieu of paying fees, in which event the City Council may elect to accept the land or require the payment of fees, or a combination of both, and in making such election will consider the factors set forth in this section,
1. For developments containing more than 50 parcels, the City Council determines whether to require dedication of land, payment of a fee in lieu of land, or a combination of both, for developments containing more than 50 parcels. In making this determination, the City Council considers the following factors:
2. Conformity of lands offered for dedication with the recreation element of the General Plan;
3. The topography, soils, soil stability, drainage, access, location and general utility of land in the development available for dedication;
4. The size and shape of the development and land available for dedication; Description Acres

5. The amount, usability, and location of publicly owned property available for combination with dedicated lands in the formation of local park and recreation facilities;
6. The recreation facilities to be privately owned and maintained by future residents of the development.
Currently, per the City’s municipal code 12.40.060, the applicant for any development must, as a condition of approval of the development, dedicate land, pay fees in lieu of land, or a combination of both, pursuant to this chapter for the purpose of providing park or recreation facilities to serve future residents of such development. As stated in municipal code 12.40.070, the City imposes the in-lieu fee a Parks Land Dedication based on five (5) acres per 1,000 residents or the payment of the in-lieu fee. This analysis is based on the existing Quimby standard of five (5) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, where new development will contribute and develop five (5) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents. Developers can either dedicate land to satisfy their parkland requirement or pay the in-lieu fee. The City is currently meeting this goal.
Fee Credits
Credit for Private Parks:
As stated in the City’s municipal code section 12.40.100, where a development provides a private area for park and recreational purposes and such area is to be privately owned and maintained by the future owner(s) of the development, such area may be credited against up to 50% of the requirement of land dedication or fees payment, if the Director determines that it is in the public interest to do so, and that all of the following standards either have been or will be met prior to approval of the final subdivision map:
A. That yards, court areas, setbacks, and other open areas, required to be maintained by the zoning and building ordinances and other regulations, will not be included in the computation of such private areas;
B. That the private ownership and maintenance of the area will be adequately provided for by recorded written agreement, covenants or restrictions;
C. That the use of the private area is restricted for park and recreational purposes by an open space easement or other instrument approved by the City Attorney; D. That the proposed private area is reasonably adaptable for use for park or recreational purposes, taking into consideration such factors as size, shape, topography, geology, access, and location;
E. That the facilities proposed:
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 54 October 2024 City of Santee
1. Are in substantial accordance with the provisions of the recreation element of the General Plan, or adopted community or specific plans,
2. Are appropriate to the recreation needs of the future residents of the development, and
3. Will substitute for the park lands otherwise required to be dedicated in meeting the recreation needs of the residents.
Credit for Public Parks:
As stated in the City’s municipal code section 12.40.120, when an applicant has dedicated a park to the public to serve a subdivision for which a tentative map was filed, the City Council may, pursuant to Sections 12.40.060 and 12.40.070, allow the following credits for such park:
A. A credit against up to 100% of the requirement for land dedication; B. A credit against up to 100% of fee payment required by this chapter for building permits to construct dwellings on the subdivision lots served by the dedicated public park; or C. A credit against fees required for such building permits for the value of improvements to such park installed or constructed by the applicant; provided that such credit must not exceed the value of improvements normally authorized by the City for similar parks.
Fee Methodology

future residents of such development. As stated in municipal code 12.40.070, the City imposes the in-lieu fee based on five (5) acres per 1,000 residents or the payment of the in-lieu fee. The Parksin-Lieu Fee per unit is calculated by multiplying the cost per resident by the average number of residents per unit type (density). The fee per unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot (SF) by taking the total fee per unit and dividing by the estimated average unit size for each land use to arrive at the fee per square foot. These calculations are shown in Table 8-4.
Table 8-4: Parks-in-Lieu Fee Cost Summary
Note that applicants can either dedicate land, pay fees in lieu of land, or a combination of both.
Nexus Requirement Summary
The Parks-in-Lieu Fee meets the Mitigation Fee Act Requirements, as described in this section.
Requirement 1: Identify the purpose of the fee.
The purpose of the Parks-in-Lieu Fee is to fund the parkland needs generated by new development in the City. Each new resident creates a demand for parkland. The Quimby standard for the City is five (5) acres of parkland for each 1,000 residents. In order to accommodate these needs, new parkland will be dedicated, an in-lieu fee will be paid for parkland acquisition, or a combination of both. Table 8-3 calculates the parkland cost per resident based on the City’s Quimby standard for parks and the estimated land acquisition cost.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The Parks-in-Lieu Fee will be used to fund new parkland based on the Quimby standard. New parkland will be dedicated, an in-lieu fee will be paid for parkland acquisition, or a combination of both.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
The fee will be used to fund new neighborhood, mini and community parks that are necessary to serve the increased residents in the City. New residential development generates additional residents which increases the demand for parkland. The Parks-in-Lieu Fee is calculated using the Land Use Cost Per Resident Density Fee
Average Unit

Quimby standard of five (5) acres of park per 1,000 residents. Residential development is responsible for paying its fair share to meet the Quimby requirements. Non-residential uses do not pay the fee since they do not generate additional residents and workers have minimal impact on the City’s park system.
Table 8-3 calculates the cost per resident. Table 8-4 then allocates the cost to each development type based on the estimated persons per household and calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size. By basing the fee on the size of the unit and the estimated number of new residents that is anticipated to be generated by the addition of that square footage, the fee is directly correlated to the increased need for new parks.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new residential development is anticipated to generate new residents. The addition of new residents creates the need for new parkland to meet the City’s Quimby requirement of five (5) acres per 1,000 residents. The fee is directly correlated to the number of new residents expected to be generated by each type of development. Non-residential development does not pay for parks as non-residential developments do not generate a significant demand for parkland. Residential development pays its fair share based on the estimated persons the new unit is expected to generate.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
As new residential units are constructed, new parks are necessary to meet the City’s Quimby requirement of five (5) acres of park per 1,000 residents. The Parks-in-Lieu Fee is calculated by taking the cost per acre of park acquisition times five (5) acres of parks per 1,000 future residents to determine the cost per resident, as shown in Table 8-3. The cost per resident is then allocated to each residential land use based on the persons per household each unit is expected to generate and divided by the average unit size in square feet to determine the fee per square foot as shown in Table 8-4. Since the need for parkland is based on the number of new residents, calculating the fee based on the number of persons each unit is expected to generate and converting to a fee per square feet, ensures that each new residential unit is paying only its fair share of the required facilities.
By determining the fee based on the estimated new residents that would be generated by new development, each new residential unit is paying only its fair share of the parkland required to meet the City’s Quimby requirement. In order to accommodate these needs, new parkland will be dedicated, an in-lieu fee will be paid for parkland acquisition, or a combination of both. Nonresidential land uses are not assessed a Parks-in-Lieu Fee as non-residential development will not generate an increase in parkland demand.

Section 9 Fire Facilities Fee
Background
The Fire Facilities Fee is a new proposed DIF that will be used to help fund the construction of new fire stations and the procurement of apparatus to serve the City. The Fire Facilities Fee is calculated using the System Plan Method. The System Plan Method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area. An inventory of existing fire facilities and equipment was provided by the City using facility information and valuation based upon Property Insurance valuation.
Service Population
Demand for fire facilities is based on the total new residents and employees generated at Buildout conditions.
Cost Summary
The Fire Facilities Fee will fund the construction of new fire stations and apparatus to serve the City. These facilities will be necessary to meet the demands of the growth of the City at Buildout.
The cost for the Fire Facilities Fee is based on the integrated cost of the current and future facilities.
As new development occurs, there are new residents and employees associated with the new development, which correlates to a need for additional fire improvements. The Nexus Study acknowledges that the existing development will also benefit from these fire improvements once they are constructed and therefore existing development has a fair share of these improvements.
New development also benefits from the existing fire facilities and therefore new development will fund the integrated system of facilities at the existing standard attributable to new development.

Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 60 October 2024 City of Santee
Fee Methodology
The Fire Facilities Fee uses the System Plan Method to calculate the fee. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the System Plan Method utilizes an integrated approach to allocate the cost of existing facilities and the costs of planned facilities to the total development in the study area. This method is appropriate when calculating a systemwide fee in which new development will fund an integrated system of facilities at the future standard attributable to new development. By spreading the costs of an integrated system incorporating the existing facilities and planned facilities costs to the total development in the study area, this ensures that new development only pays their proportional share of the total system costs and is not responsible for rectifying any existing deficiencies.
The total fire facilities value is divided by the existing service population to establish the level of service per resident/worker as shown in Table 9-3.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 61 October 2024 City of Santee
Table 9-3: Fire Facilities Level of Service per Capita
Fee Summary
The Fire Facility Fee per unit is calculated by multiplying the cost per capita by the average number of resident equivalents per unit type (density). The cost per capita for non-residential land uses is weighted using the factors shown in Table 3-4. For residential uses, the fee per unit must then be converted to a fee per square foot for each unit type by dividing by the average size of each unit.
Table 9-4 summarizes these calculations.

Table 9-4: Fire Facilities Fee Summary
Current Level of Service
Per AB602, when applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for the fire facilities, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate. As shown on Table 9-5, the proposed Fire Facilities Fee is less than the existing level of service.
The Fire Facility Fee includes the facilities that are needed to serve the City at buildout and calculates the percentage attributable to new development based on new developments’ proportional share of the new facilities. The percentage attributable to new development is then applied to the costs of the facilities. This methodology conservatively ensures that new development is only funding their proportionate share of the total facilities. As shown in the Nexus Study analysis, based on the cost per capita of the existing facilities, the level of service per capita for existing facilities is lower than the level of service planned for build out. This analysis is based on existing and planned facilities and new developments’ proportional fair share of these planned facilities; therefore, this Nexus Study makes the required nexus findings per AB 602.
Government Code section 66001(g) states, "A fee shall not include the costs attributable to existing deficiencies in public facilities, but may include the costs attributable to the increased demand for public facilities reasonably related to the development project in order to (1) refurbish existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service, or (2) achieve an adopted level of service that is consistent with the general plan." The CIP, shown in Appendix A, will adopt the new level of service. Furthermore, as shown in Table 9-3, the new level of service is the same for both existing residents and new development. The City is not requiring new development to build out at a higher level of service than what is being placed on existing residents at buildout. Rather, the planned level of service, reflected in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan for the Fire Facilities Fee, will provide the higher, adopted level of service for both existing residents and future development to be funded by both existing residents and future development. Moreover, the use of a new, increased Land Use

level of service is appropriate where, as here, the existing level of service is too low to meet the City’s desired standards and future facility needs.
As residents and employees occupying future development projects become existing residents, they will generate general fund revenues for the City through the payment of property and sales taxes. These general fund revenues can be used for general government purposes throughout the City, including the operation and maintenance of fire and other public facilities and the provision of ongoing government services to the existing population. While the City has the discretion to use general fund revenues to fund the existing population’s fair share costs of future general governmental facilities, these revenues may also be used for any other legal general government service. In contrast, the Fire Facilities fee revenues may only be used to pay for the costs of fire facilities related to new development.

Table 9-7 summarizes the anticipated Fire Facilities Fees. The revenue will be applied to future fire stations and fire equipment to meet the needs of new development. According to discussions with the Fire Chief, the current fire stations are at full capacity and cannot accommodate any additional expansion to meet additional demand. At full Buildout, an additional two fire stations will be needed. The two additional fire stations will also require fire apparatuses, ambulances, and other equipment.

personnel that are necessary to mitigate the impacts of new development. Each new resident and worker creates a demand for additional fire facilities. In order to accommodate these needs, new fire facilities will be built and/or existing facilities will be expanded per capita/worker.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The Fire Facilities Fee will be used to fund new development’s fair-share portion of the fire facilities, new fire stations, vehicles and fire equipment required to serve new development in order to maintain the City’s existing level of service. The anticipated fee revenue at Buildout is shown on Table 9-7. The capital improvement projects are identified in Appendix A.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
The fee will be used to fund new fire facilities that are necessary to serve the increased residents and workers in the City. New development generates additional residents and workers which increases the demand for fire facilities. The System Plan Method calculates the proposed fee utilizing the totality of the existing and proposed improvements and subsequently dividing by the service population, future development funds an integrated system of facilities at the future standard applicable to new development. As the System Plan Method spreads the totality of fire facilities improvements based on the total demand at the horizon year, existing deficiencies are by definition not being spread to future development.
Table 9-1 identifies the existing fire facilities, Table 9-2 shows the future fire facilities, and Table 9-3 calculates the existing cost per capita/worker. Workers are weighted less than residents to reflect lower per capita service demand. Non-residential buildings are typically occupied less than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average per-resident demand. The 0.37-weighting factor for workers is based upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).
The cost per capita/worker is then allocated to each development type based on the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 square feet. Table 9-4 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for non-residential. Calculating the fees based on the new residents or employees generated ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new development is anticipated to generate new residents and workers. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for new fire facilities to maintain the City’s existing level Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 66 October 2024 City of Santee
of service. The Fire Facilities Fee is based on the number of applicable workers and/or residents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the facilities is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident, thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 that of a resident.
The fee for each unit type is calculated in Table 9-4.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The Fire Facilities fee is based on the System Plan Method, which estimates the costs for an integrated system of existing and future facilities. The fire facilities that are necessary for the new development are summarized in the planned improvements presented in Table 9-2. The existing facilities are shown on Table 9-1. Table 9-3 calculates the total cost per capita based on the total planned and existing cost divided by the Buildout population. The fee for each land use is then calculated by multiplying the cost per capita/worker by the projected number of new resident equivalents that each land use will generate and converting to a fee per square foot for residential and a fee per 1,000 square foot for non-residential land uses as shown in Table 9-4. Since the need for the facilities directly correlates to the addition of new residents and workers, determining the fee based on the equivalent residents each land use is expected to generate ensures that each new development pays for their fair share of the required future facilities.

Section 10 Long Range Planning Fee
Background
This section presents an analysis of the new proposed Long Range Planning Fee. The Long Range Planning Fee is a new proposed fee and will be collected for the purpose of contributing to fund updates to the City’s General Plan Elements and Sustainable Santee Plan. The General Plan is made up of multiple elements that are updated periodically to account for changes in the City over time. The State of California requires that among these elements be included: Land Use, Conservation, Noise, Environmental Justice, Circulation, Open Space, Safety, Air Quality, and Housing. The City of Santee combines the Safety and Environmental Justice elements and additionally includes a Recreation element.
The City most recently completed an update to the Housing Element in 2022. The next upcoming scheduled update is the Land Use Element, which will be completed in 2024.
Current Level of Service
Table 10-1 describes the planned components of the General Plan update and the Sustainable Santee Plan and their associated costs. Table 10-2 calculates new developments fair share of the cost based on the population allocation between existing and new service population.

Fee Methodology
The Long Range Planning Fee is calculated using the Planned Facility Method. As stated in the “Impact Fee Nexus Study Template” prepared for the California Department of Housing and Community Development by Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, the Planned Facility Method “Estimates the costs for future facilities needed to serve new development based on a long range expenditure plan for these future facility costs.” This method is appropriate when planned facilities are mostly for the benefit of new development.
The Long Range Planning Fee per unit is calculated by multiplying the cost per resident/worker by the average number of resident/worker equivalents per unit type (density). The cost per capita for non-residential land uses is weighted using the factors shown in Table 3-4. For residential uses, the fee per unit must be converted to a fee per square foot for each unit type by dividing by the average size of each unit. Table 10-3 summarizes these calculations.
Table 10-3: Long Range Planning Fee Summary
Capital Improvement Projects and Revenue Projections
Table 10-1 shows the planned future projects to be funded by this fee. Table 10-4 summarizes the anticipated Long Range Planning Fee revenues collected at Buildout. To ensure that the City can meet the needs of the growing community, the City may choose to introduce additional elements to the General Plan.
Using actual costs from previous General Plan updates and budgeted costs for future updates, additional elements may cost between $75,000 and $2,800,000 each. Revenues collected through development impact fees will not fully fund the currently planned updates. Table 10-4 shows the approximate Long Range Planning Fee revenues collected at Buildout.

additional residents and workers which changes the planning landscape of the City. The Planned Facility Method estimates the costs for future facilities needed to serve new development based on a long range expenditure plan for these future facility costs.” Table 10-1 identifies the future general plan costs and Table 10-2 new developments fair share of the cost and the cost per resident/worker. Workers are weighted less than residents to reflect lower per capita service demand. Non-residential buildings are typically occupied less intensively than dwelling units, so it is reasonable to assume that average per-worker demand for services is less than average perresident demand. The 0.37-weighting factor for workers is based upon a 45-hour work week (40 hours of work plus 1 hour lunch break) relative to a resident’s non-working time of 123 hours (168 hours per week less 45 work hours).
The cost per capita/worker is then allocated to each development type based on the estimated persons per household and employees per 1,000 square feet. Table 10-3 calculates the cost per square foot for the residential units based on the estimated average unit size and cost per 1,000 square feet for non-residential. Calculating the fees based on the new residents or employees generated ensures a reasonable relationship between the fees use and the type of development project.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new development is anticipated to generate new residents and workers. The addition of new residents and workers creates the need for updates to the Long Range Planning documents. The Long Range Planning Fee is based on the number of applicable workers and/or residents each new development is expected to generate, thus ensuring that the need for the updates is directly related to a particular development’s impact. New workers generate a smaller demand than a resident, thus one worker is considered, on average, as equivalent to 0.37 that of a resident. The fee for each unit type is calculated in Table 10-3.
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
As new development is constructed, new updates to the General Plan elements are needed for these planning documents. The fee is based on the Planned Facility Method and the total cost of the future updates is allocated between the existing service population and the new service population.
Therefore, new development pays their fair share of the of the costs for of the General Plan and other Long Range Planning documents.

Section 11 Program Administration Fee
Background
The City, with assistance from consultants, oversees the implementation and administration of the existing and future Fee Program, consistent with the requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act.
AB602, which came into effect on January 1, 2022, adds additional nexus study requirements.
Furthermore, AB1483, which became effective January 1, 2020, requires that public agencies make certain information available on their website, increasing the administrative responsibilities of the City.
A two percent (2%) Administrative Fee is added to fund the costs of the City’s management and ongoing fee program administration, collection, and reporting, based on an analysis of the cost administrative cost necessary to support the DIF Program. This includes costs associated with City staff and consultant time, studies, and administration to support the program. Furthermore, AB602, adds additional administration and reporting cities are responsible for meeting. Industry standard ranges from three to six percent (3-6%) of the fee for the administrative component of a development fee program. The administrative functions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Annual fee adjustments
• Annual fee reporting
• Additional fee reporting every five years
• Posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on the City’s website • Nexus study updates every eight years (an AB602 requirement) • Master Plans necessary to support the Nexus study updates • Staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking, and administration
• Staff and consultant time needed to track credits and reimbursements for improvements constructed in the fee program
In addition to the aforementioned administrative activities, the City is responsible for both (i) using fee revenues to plan for and construct required capital facilities and (ii) pursue other funding sources, as required, to bridge financial gaps between what is collected and the actual cost to construct needed facilities. A flat fee will impair the City’s ability to abide by AB602’s rigorous requirements.
Consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act, the Administrative Fee will be collected to fund the cost of the program administrative activities, such as administration, collection, and reporting. The Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 73 October 2024 City of Santee
costs to administer will vary each year. In addition to annual program reporting activities and additional fee reporting requirements every five years, AB602 requires the Nexus Study must be updated at least every eight years.
Table 11-1 shows the proposed Program Administration Fee as two percent (2%) of the total Impact Fees charged on each project.
Table 11-1: Program Administration Fee
It is anticipated that administrative costs will continue to increase due to the additional requirements of the state legislation. It is also anticipated that revenue and expenditures will vary year to year due to the cyclical nature of five-year reporting requirements, nexus study updates, and the housing market.
The table below estimates the City’s administrative cost for the fee program and the fee revenue generated. The City’s average annual cost for staff time is based on the City’s current cost related to development impact fee administration. This includes the cost of the Nexus Study, which the City would incur every eight years. Therefore the annual cost is divided by eight. Given the increase of state legislation, reporting requirements, potential questions, and agreements, the table below estimates additional staff time moving forward. Given the cyclical nature of nexus updates, reporting requirements, and master plans, the cost are shown for those over eight years, based on the escalated cost of the current nexus study, staff time, and other estimated cost. The fee revenue is shown assuming a 2050 Buildout. While the fee revenue is higher, it is assumed that the costs shown are very conservative and a surplus would be needed for additional studies or additional future requirements.

Cost related to the Nexus Study was divided by 8 years. Additional staff time related to posting of information per AB 1483, additional staff time to administer this fee program, fee credits/ reimbursements, additional legislative requirements and legal review, and other administrative duties related to the fee program.

as providing fee quotes, updating the fee program, tracking revenue and expenditures, updating the City’s website, and preparing annual and five-year reports.
Requirement 2: Identify the use of the fee.
The Program Administration Fee will be used to fund the management and administration of the Fee Program. This includes consultant and City staff time related to services such as posting of nexus studies and fee schedules on the City’s website, annual fee adjustments, annual fee reporting, additional fee reporting every five years, application and tracking of fee credits/reimbursements, periodic nexus study updates, staff and consultant time related to fee preparation, collection, tracking and administration.
Requirement 3: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
New residents and workers that result from new development increases the demand for new infrastructure and facilities. These new infrastructure and facility projects will be funded through the Fee program, which requires City and consultant staff time to manage and administer. The Program Administration Fee is a two percent (2%) mark-up of the DIFs.
Requirement 4: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed.
Each new development adds residents or workers to the City and in order to maintain the City’s desired level of service, public facilities, traffic facilities (including traffic signals), drainage, fire facilities must be built and parkland acquired and general plan documents completed. These facilities are funded through the DIFs. To ensure these fees for new development are administered according to state law, regular updates, tracking and reporting, staff time is required. In addition, City staff must provide fee quotes for new development. To collect the funding for these resulting activities, the Program Administration Fee is based on a two percent (2%) mark-up of the Fee Program as summarized in Table 11-1. Using a percentage of the DIFs, ensures that each new development is charged their fair share. A two percent (2%) fee is below the industry standard range of three to six percent (3-6%).
Requirement 5: Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.
The Program Administration Fee provides the funding to administer the DIFs. Having an adopted a policy of collecting a two percent (2%) mark-up to administer fee programs is slightly below the industry standard and effective. Since this fee is calculated as a mark-up of the other DIFs as summarized in Table 11-1, each land use pays for their fair share of the management costs based on their impact to the City’s infrastructure.

Section 12 Implementation and Administration
Implementation
According to the California Government Code, prior to levying a new fee or increasing an existing fee, an agency must hold at least one open and public meeting with at least 30 days’ notice. In addition, notice of the time and place of the meeting, including a general explanation of the matter to be considered, and a statement that the data required by this section is available, shall be mailed at least 14 days prior to the meeting to any interested party who files a written request with the local agency for mailed notice of the meeting on new or increased fees or service charges. Any written request for mailed notices shall be valid for one year from the date on which it is filed unless a renewal request is filed. At least ten days prior to this meeting, the agency must make data on infrastructure costs and funding sources available to the public. Notice of the time and place of the meeting and a general explanation of the matter are to be published in accordance with Section 6062a of the Government Code, which states that publication of notice shall occur for ten days in a newspaper regularly published once a week or more. The new or increased fees shall be effective no earlier than 60 days following the final action on the adoption or increase of the fees.
Fee Program Administrative Requirements
The Government Code requires the City to report every year and every fifth year certain financial information regarding the fees. The City must make available within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year the following information from the prior fiscal year:
1. A brief description of the type of fee in the account or fund.
2. The amount of the fee.
3. The beginning and ending balance in the account or fund.
4. The amount of the fee collected and the interest earned.
5. An identification of each public improvement for which fees were expended and the amount of expenditures.
6. An identification of an approximate date by which time construction on the improvement will commence if it is determined that sufficient funds exist to complete the project.
7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account and when it will be repaid.
8. Identification of any refunds made once it is determined that sufficient monies have been collected to fund all fee related projects.
Beginning in 2024, the code has been expanded to include and expand on some of the requirements. The following requirement was added:
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 77 October 2024 City of Santee
An identification of each improvement identified pursuant to requirement #6 listed on a previous report and whether construction began on the approximate date noted within that report. If construction did not commence by the approximate date provided in the previous report, identify the reason for the delay and a revised approximate commencement date.
In addition, requirement 8 was expanded to now require the following information:
Identification of any refunds made and the number of persons or entities identified to receive those refunds once it is determined that sufficient monies have been collected to fund all fee related projects.
The City must make this information available for public review and must also present it at the next regularly scheduled public meeting not less than 15 days after this information is made available to the public.
For the fifth fiscal year following the first deposit into the account or fund, and every five years thereafter, the City must make the following findings with respect to any remaining funds in the fee account, regardless of whether those funds are committed or uncommitted:
1. Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put.
2. Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged.
3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing any incomplete improvements.
4. Designate the approximate dates on which funding in item (3) above is expected to be deposited into the fee account.
Based on new legislation, a local agency shall inform a person paying a fee subject of both of the following:
• The person’s right to request an audit pursuant to Section 66023. • The person’s right, pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b), to file a written request for mailed notice of the local agency’s meeting to review the information made public pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b).
A local agency shall provide a person paying a fee subject to this section a link to the page on the local agency’s internet website where the information made public pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) is available for review.

Fee Adjustment Procedures
The DIFs may be adjusted periodically to reflect revised facility requirements, receipt of funding from alternative sources (i.e., state or federal grants), revised facilities or costs, changes in demographics, changes in the average unit square footage, or changes in the land use plan. In accordance with Santee Municipal Code section 12.30.050, Santee Development Impact Fees are automatically adjusted for inflation on July 1 of each year. The inflation adjustment is two percent or based on the previous calendar years increase in the San Diego Consumer Price Index (CPI-U:
All Items) as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, whichever is higher. The Municipal Code will need to be updated to adjusting annually on July 1st based on the Construction Cost Index (CCI) for the 20-City Average as reported by Engineering News Record (ENR) for a twelvemonth period or a similar published index if the CCI Index is no longer available.
Timing of Fee Payment
Fees will be collected at the time the building permit for the project is issued. All residential projects will pay a fee based on the livable square footage of the residential unit(s). For highdensity residential projects, the fee will be due at the time of the building permit for each building.
For high-density residential projects, the non-residential communal portion (i.e., clubhouse, maintenance facility, gym, etc.) will not be assessed impact fees as the impact is assumed to be captured in the residential fees. Area that are accessible by the public (i.e., leasing office) will be charged impact fees according to use.
Credits and Reimbursement Policies
The City may provide fee credits or reimbursements to developers who dedicate land or construct eligible facilities. Fee credits or reimbursements may be provided up to the cost of the improvement, as shown in this study, subject to periodic inflation adjustments, or the actual cost paid by the developer, whichever is lower. For construction cost overruns, only that amount shown in the study, subject to periodic inflation adjustments, would be credited or reimbursed. The City will evaluate the appropriate fee credit or reimbursement based on the value of the dedication or improvement. Credits or reimbursements may be repaid based on the priority of the capital improvements, as determined by the City. The City will determine fee credits and reimbursements on a case-by-case basis and possibly through the use of a development agreement.
Administrative Fee
An administrative fee of two (2) percent is included as part of each of the fees and may be used for costs for legal, accounting, and other administrative support and development impact fee program administration costs including revenue collection, revenue and cost accounting, mandated public reporting, and fee justification analysis. Additionally, the administrative fee may be used to fund the impact fee nexus study updated that must be updated at a minimum every eight (8) years Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 79 October 2024 City of Santee
pursuant to AB602. Please refer to the individual fee calculation tables for a breakdown of the administration fee.
Programming Revenues with the CIP
The City should maintain its CIP to adequately plan for future infrastructure needs. The CIP should commit all projected fee revenues and fund balances to specific projects that are necessary to serve growth as described in this report. The use of the CIP provides documentation necessary for the City to hold funds in a project account for longer than five years if necessary to collect sufficient funds to complete a project. In addition, the CIP is required per AB602. This report outlines the projects that are to be funded with the fee program and forms the basis of the CIP, as shown in Appendix A.
Fee Reporting
Assembly Bill No. 1483, which became effective January 1, 2020, requires that public agencies make the following information available on their website. The following information must be provided:
1. A current schedule of fees, exactions, and affordability requirements imposed by the city, county, or special district, including any dependent special districts, of the city or county applicable to a proposed housing development project, which shall be presented in a manner that clearly identifies the fees, exactions, and affordability requirements that apply to each parcel.
2. All zoning ordinances and development standards, which shall specify the zoning, design, and development standards that apply to each parcel.
3. The list of information required to be compiled pursuant to Section 65940.
4. The current and five previous annual fee reports or the current and five previous annual financial reports, which were required pursuant to subdivision.
5. An archive of impact fee nexus studies, cost of service studies, or equivalent, conducted by the city, county, or special district on or after January 1, 2018.
Any updates to the above information must be available within 30 days.
Accessory Dwelling Units
An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a second unit that is attached or detached from a singlefamily home. In accordance with Assembly Bill No. 881 approved on October 9, 2019, fees will not be charged for an ADU that is less than 750 square feet. For an ADU that is 750 square feet or larger, the ADU will be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. Since the residential fees are now being charged on a square footage basis, ADU fees will be calculated by multiplying the Single-Family Residential fee by the ADU’s square footage.
Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Nexus Study 80 October 2024 City of Santee
Specialized Development Projects
The fees in this Report may not apply to specialized development projects such as golf courses, cemeteries, sports stadium, or other specialized land uses. For specialized development projects the City will review the development’s impacts to determine the applicable fees. The fee rates presented in this Report may be reduced, exempted, or waived under certain circumstances as determined by the City. Any exemption or reduction in fees will be based on the City’s independent analysis and review of the subject property. In addition, for reuse, density increasing, or rezone projects, the developer shall only be responsible for paying fees for the intensification of the development. In cases of disaster, impact fees will not be charged on the rebuilding of the structures that were affected by the disaster to the extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is similar to the structure destroyed by the disaster. The City will review the development’s increased impacts to determine the applicable fees.
Some developments may include more than one land use type. In these cases, the fee is calculated separately for each land use. The City has the discretion to impose the fees based on the specific aspects of a proposed development regardless of zoning. The fee imposed should be based on the land use type that most closely represents the impacts of the development.
Rebuild or Expansion Projects
For reuse, expansions, density increasing, or rezone projects, the developer shall only be responsible for paying fees for the intensification or expansion. For example, if a homeowner wishes to build an addition to their home that is 100 square feet, the homeowner would be responsible for paying fees for the 100 square foot addition. The City will review the new development’s impacts to determine the applicable fees on a case-by-case basis.
In cases of rebuilding a structure after a demolition, impact fees will not be assessed on the rebuild to the extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is similar to the structure prior to demolition. Similarly, in cases of disaster, impact fees will not be charged on the rebuilding of the structures that were affected by the disaster to the extent that the overall size and use of the new structure is the same as the structure destroyed by the disaster. Impact fees for the new structure will be calculated based on the new rebuilt structure and the fees paid for the previous structure, and the difference between these fees will be assessed. No refunds will be made for rebuilds that have a lower impact fee than the previous structure.
