DATE: March 3, 2026
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 12.08 OF THE SHASTA LAKE MUNICIPAL CODE – PARK AND RECREATION AREA

FEES AND CHARGES
FILE NO.:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce and adopt an ordinance amending Chapter 12.08 of the Shasta Lake Municipal Code to clarify administrative authority related to park and recreation area fee exemptions and reciprocal agreements.

BACKGROUND
Chapter 12.08 of the Shasta Lake Municipal Code governs the establishment, collection, and disposition of park and recreation area fees and charges. Portions of the chapter contain inconsistent references to authority between the City Council and the City Manager, creating ambiguity in administration protocols.

The proposed ordinance:
• Assigns authority for determining fee exemptions to the City Manager, following Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission review.
• Clarifies the City Manager’s authority to approve reciprocal agreements. • Retains City Council authority for establishing and adopting park and facility fees by resolution.
• Does not alter public access to parks or facilities.
39 Clarifying this authority improves transparency, efficiency, and consistency with other chapters of the Municipal Code.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The amendments are administrative and clarifying in nature only.

____________________________________________________________ TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jessaca Lugo, City Manager

DATE: March 3, 2026
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF UPDATED PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITY

USE FEES
FILE NO.:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving and establishing updated Parks and Recreation Facility Use Fees, repealing prior fee schedules, and adopting the fees attached as Exhibit A.

BACKGROUND
The City of Shasta Lake operates and maintains multiple park facilities, sports fields, and community amenities that are used by residents, organizations, and visitors. Over time, operating costs for utilities, trash disposal, staffing, maintenance, and repairs have increased substantially.

The current fee structure, largely unchanged since 1999, does not adequately recover costs associated with facility use, resulting in increased reliance on the General Fund.

Updating the fee schedule ensures responsible stewardship of public facilities while maintaining fair and consistent access.

On February 12, 2026, the Parks and Recreation Commission met to review the proposed updates to the Parks and Recreation Facility Use Fees. Following discussion, the Commission approved the proposed changes and recommended adoption by the City Council. The Commission also provided the following feedback, which is further clarified in this staff report:
• Question: Is a reservation required to use a park?
45 Answer: No. Parks are open for public use without a reservation. However, if a family or group would like to ensure exclusive use of a park for the day, a reservation is required.

Question: Will the City double-book rentals if they are not being used for the entirety of the rental period?
Answer: No. Facility rentals are reserved for the full rental period (one day) and will not be double-booked.

Question: Does rental of an entire park include use of the parking lot, or does that need to be reserved separately?
Answer: Rental of an entire park includes use of associated parking lots and does not require a separate reservation.

Pursuant to Shasta Lake Municipal Code (SLMC) Chapter 12.08, park and recreation fees are adopted by City Council resolution following review and recommendation.

The proposed fee schedule:
• Updates rental, league, and special event fees to reflect current costs • Establishes consistent security deposits and reservation requirements • Clarifies use conditions for parks, sports fields, and civic facilities • Maintains discounted rates where applicable for youth and non-profit uses The proposed fees are attached as “Exhibit A” and include all park, field, and facility use charges.

FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the updated fee schedule is expected to increase cost recovery for Parks and Recreation operations. Revenue generated will help offset expenses related to utilities, maintenance, staffing, and administrative oversight. No additional General Fund appropriation is requested.

AGENDA ITEM
City Council
____________________________________________________________ TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Wendy Howard, Finance Director

DATE: March 3, 2026
SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF AB 1600 DEVELOPMENT FEES ANNUAL
REPORT
FILE NO.: F-200-

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council review and approve a Resolution accepting the AB 1600 Development Fees Annual Report for the Fiscal Year through period FY 2025 for the City of Shasta Lake.

BACKGROUND
Government Code Section 66006 requires local agencies to prepare and submit an annual report detailing the status of development impact fees. While Government Code Section 66006 requires the annual report to be presented within 180 days following the close of the fiscal year, this item is being brought forward at this time due to administrative delays. Staff is presenting the report now to ensure transparency and compliance with the intent of the Mitigation Fee Act.

Following the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978, many cities began charging fees on new development to help fund public infrastructure and services such as streets, parks, sewer systems, and storm drainage facilities. These charges are commonly referred to as development impact fees.

To ensure that such fees are collected, accounted for, and expended appropriately, the State Legislature enacted AB 1600, also known as the Mitigation Fee Act, which applies to development fees imposed or increased on or after January 1, 1989. AB 1600 is 53 codified in Government Code Sections 66000–66008 and establishes the following primary requirements:

1. Nexus Requirement:

The local agency must establish a reasonable relationship (nexus) between the development project or class of projects and the public improvement being funded.

2. Separate Accounting:

Development fee revenues must be segregated from the General Fund to prevent commingling and ensure proper tracking.

3. Five-Year Findings and Annual Reporting:

If a local agency holds development fees for five or more years without expending or committing them to a project, the agency must make findings demonstrating a continued need for the funds. Additionally, the agency must annually report:
• Fees collected
• Interest earned
• Expenditures made
• Transfers or loans involving the fee accounts
This report must be reviewed by the governing body.

4. Refund Requirement:

If the required findings cannot be made, the agency must refund the unexpended fees to the current property owners.

The City of Shasta Lake collects and maintains several development impact fee funds subject to AB 1600 requirements. These funds, as documented in the attached Annual Report, include:
• Traffic Impact Fees – Used for the design and construction of street and traffic signal improvements.
• Water Plant Facilities Capacity Fees – Used for capital improvements and capital replacement of water treatment and distribution facilities. • Electric Plant Facilities Capacity Fees – Used for capital improvements and capital replacement of electric distribution facilities. • Wastewater Plant Facilities Capacity Fees – Used for capital improvements and capital replacement of wastewater treatment and collection facilities. • Parks Plant Facilities Capacity Fees – Used for capital improvements and capital replacement of park system facilities.

City staff reviewed each development fee fund to determine whether any fees collected five or more years ago remain unexpended and subject to refund under AB 1600. Based on this review, no refunds are required.
54 Unexpended fund balances represent fees collected for specific, Council-approved capital projects that will be financed and implemented when financially feasible or practical.

FISCAL IMPACT
Acceptance of the AB 1600 Development Fees Annual Report has no direct fiscal impact on the General Fund. Development impact fees are restricted funds and may only be used for their designated purposes in accordance with State law.
