Agenda Item 2

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council conduct a workshop to review the user fee study and provide feedback.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City contracted with NBS to perform a User Fee Study (Study). The City’s main objectives in conducting this study were to ensure that existing fees do not exceed the costs of service and to provide an opportunity for the City Council to re-align fee amounts with the recommended cost recovery. The fees examined in the study are user and regulatory fees charged by various City departments and divisions. Specifically excluded from the study, were development impact fees, utility rates, and any special ta x asse ssments that have distinct analytical and procedural requi rements different fr om t he body of user/regulatory fees analyzed in this study.

BACKGROUND AND LEGISLATIVE HISTORY
California cities may impose user and regulatory fees for services and activities they provide through provisions set forth in the State Constitution, Article XIII C, section 1. Under this legal framework, a fee may not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service or performing the activity. For a fee to qualify as such, it must relate to a service or activity performed at the request of an individual or entity upon which the fee is imposed, or their actions specifically cause the local government agency to perform additional activities. In this instance, the se
rvice or under lying action causing the local age ncy to perf orm t he service is eit her discretionary and/or is subject to regulation. As a discretionary service or regulatory activity, the user fees and regulatory fees considered in this Study fall outside of the definition and statutory requirement to impose general taxes, special taxe s, and fees as a result of property ow
nership.

In May 2011, the City Council consolidated citywide fees into a master schedule (resolution 2011-101). The master fee schedule has been periodically amended for administrative and Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments, with the last amendment to the Master Fee Schedule on June 16, 2020, Resolution No. 2020-110 (Exhibit A).

The City contracted with NBS to perform a User Fee Study with the purpose of ensuring that existing fees do not exceed the costs of service and to providing an opportunity for the City Council to re-align fee amounts with recommended cost recovery fee amounts.

Additionally, this Study excluded facility and equipment rental rates, as well as most fines and penal
ties imposed by the City for violations to its requirements or codes.

ANALYSIS
NBS completed three phases of analysis for each City department or program.

1. Cos
t-of-service analysis

2. Fee establishment

3. Cost recovery evaluation
The following table depicts the factors included in the cost-of-service analysis. The hourly rate outcomes are used to establish fees for services.

The Study examined user and regulatory fees charged by City divisions and departments. The NBS fee model compares the existing fee for each service or activity to the average total cost of service quantified through the analysis. A cost recovery rate of 0% identifies no current recovery of costs from fee revenues. A rate of 100% means that the fee currently recovers the full cost of service. A rate greater than 100% means that the fee exceeded the full cost of service.

Agenda Item 2
January 17, 2023

The following table provides a summary of the annual cost of service analysis results for each fee program studied.

As shown, the Study identified approximately $11.4 million in annual revenue collected at current fee amounts, versus $19.7 million of estimated costs eligible for recovery from fees or service. The City is currently recovering approximately 58% of the total costs associated with providing fee related services. Should the Council adopt fee levels at 100% of the calculated full cost recovery fee amounts determined by the St udy, an additional $8.3 million in costs could be recovered.

However, the full cost recovery figures are presented along with the recommended fee amounts which were prepared in accordance with the City’s goals as pertaining to code compliance, cost recovery, and economic development. At City Staff’s recommended fee amounts for Council’s consideration, an additional $2.9 million in costs could be recovered, for a cost recovery rate of 72%.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City is currently recovering approximately 58% of the total costs associated with providing fee related services. Should the Council adopt fee levels at the recommended cost recovery rates, the City would recover an additional $2.9 million in costs, bringing the cost recovery rate to 72%.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 1

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
NBS performed a User Fee Study (Study) for the City of Tracy (City). The purpose of this report is to describe the Study’s findings and recommendations, which intend to defensibly update and establish use r and regulatory fees for service for the City of Tra cy, California.

California cities, counties, and special districts may impose user and regulatory fees for services an d activities they provide through provisions set fort h in the State Constitution, Article XIII C § 1. Un der this legal framework, a fee may not exceed the reasonabl e cost of providing the service or performing the activity. For a fee to qualify as such, it must rel ate to a service or activity performed at the reque st of an individual or entity upon which the fee is imposed, or their actions specifically cause the local gove rnment agency to perform additional activities. In this in stance, the service or underlying action causing th e local agency to perform the service is either discretiona ry and/or is subject to regulation. As a discretion ary service or regulatory activity, the user fees and r egulatory fees considered in this Study fall outsid e of the definition and statutory requirement to impose gene ral taxes, special taxes, and fees a result of prop erty ownership.

The City’s chief purposes in conducting this Study were to ensure that existing fees do not exceed the costs of service and to provide an opportunity for the City Council to re-align fee amounts with the adopted cost recovery policies.

1.1 Findings
This Study examined user and regulatory fees charge d by various City divisions and departments, as listed below.
 Finance Department
 City Clerk’s Office
 City Manager Cable TV Department

TABLE 1. REPORT SUMMARY

* sufficient data regarding activity levels for fees charged was not available for purposes of annual r evenue analysis.

Should the Council adopt fee levels at 100% of the calculated full cost recovery fee amounts determine d by this Study, an additional $8.3 million in costs could be recovered.

However, as discussed in Section 2.2.3 of this repo rt, there may be reasons why policy makers chose to adopt fees at less than the calculated full cost re covery amount. As such, City staff provided initial recommended fee amounts for Council’s consideration . At City staff’s initial recommended fee amounts, an additional $2.9 million in costs could be recove red, for a cost recovery rate of 72%.

1.2 Report Format
This report documents analytical methods and data s ources used throughout the Study, presents findings regarding current levels of cost recovery achieved from user and regulatory fees, discusses recommende d fee amounts, and provides a comparative survey of f ees to neighboring agencies for similar services.  Section 2 of the report outlines the foundation of the Study and general approach.  Sections 3 through 17 discuss the results of the co st of service analysis performed, segmented by category of fee and/or department.

requirements or codes. (The City is not limited to the costs of service when charging for entrance to or use of government property, or when imposing fines and penalties.)

2.2 Methods of Analysis
There are three phases of analysis completed for each City department or program studied:

1. Cost of service analysis

2. Fee establishment

3. Cost recovery evaluation

2.2.1 COST OF SERVICE ANALYSIS
This cost of service analysis is a quantitative effort that compiles the full cost of providing governmental services and activities. There are two primary types of costs considered: direct and indirect costs. Direct costs are those that specifically relate to an activity or service, including the real-time provision of the service. Indirect costs are those that support the provision of services in general but cannot be directly or easily assigned to a singular activity or service.

Direct Costs:
 Direct personnel costs – Salary, wages and benefits expenses for personnel specifically involved in the provision of services and activities to the public.  Direct non-personnel costs – Discrete expenses incurred by the Department/Division due to a specific service or activity performed, such as contractor costs, third-party charges, and very specific materials used in the service or activity.

Indirect Costs:
 Indirect personnel costs – Personnel expenses supporting the provision of services and activities. This can include line supervision and departmental management, administrative support within a department, and staff involved in technical support activities related to the direct services provided to the public.
 Indirect non-personnel costs – Expenses other than labor involved in the provision of services. In most cases, these costs are allocated across all services provided by a department, rather than directly assigned to individual fee/rate categories.  Overhead costs – These are expenses, both labor and non-labor, related to agency-wide support services. Support services include general administrative services such as City Manager, Finance, Human Resources, etc. The amount of costs attributable to the departments or divisions included in this Study were sourced from the City’s Cost Allocation Plan.

All cost components in this Study use annual (or annualized) figures, representing a twelve-month cycle of expenses incurred by the City in the provision of all services and activities Citywide.

Nearly all of the fees under review in this Study require specific actions on the part of City staff to provide the service or conduct the activity. Because labor is the primary underlying factor in these activities, the Study expresses the full cost of service as a fully burdened cost per labor hour. NBS calculates a

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 7
composite, fully burdened, hourly rate for each dep artment, division, program, or activity, as applica ble to the specific organization and needs of each area studied. The rate serves as the basis for further quantifying the average full cost of providing indi vidual services and activities.

Deriving the fully burdened labor rate for each dep artment, and various functional divisions within a department, requires two figures: the full costs of service and the number of hours available to perfo rm those services. The full costs of service are quant ified through the earlier steps described in this a nalysis.

NBS derives the hours available from a complete lis ting of all City employees and/or hours of service available from contracted professionals.

The City has supplied NBS with the total number of paid labor hours for each employee involved in the delivery of services included in this Study. These available hours represent the amount of productive time available for providing both fee-recoverable and no n-fee recoverable services and activities. The productive labor hours divided into the annual full costs of service equals the composite fully burden ed labor rate. Some agencies also use the resulting ra tes for other purposes than setting fees, such as w hen the need arises to calculate the full cost of gener al services or structure a cost recovery agreement with another agency or third party.

Fully burdened labor rates applied at the individua l fee level estimate an average full cost of provid ing each service or activity. This step required the de velopment of staff time estimates for the services and activities listed in the City’s fee schedule. For a ll fee programs studied, time tracking records (if available) were useful in identifying time spent providing gen eral categories of service (e.g. division administr ation, plan review, inspection, public information assista nce, etc.). However, the City does not systematical ly track activity service time for all departments, or all individual fee-level services provided. Conseq uently, interviews and questionnaires were used to develop the necessary data sets describing estimated labor time. In many cases, the City estimated the average amount of time (in minutes and hours) it would tak e to complete a typical occurrence of each service or activity considered.

It should be noted that the development of these ti me estimates was not a one-step process: estimates received were carefully reviewed by both NBS and de partmental management to assess the reasonableness of such estimates. Based on this rev iew, the City reconsidered its time estimates until both parties were comfortable that the fee models r easonably reflected the average service level provided by the City. Then, time estimates were app lied to the appropriate fully burdened labor rate t o yield an average total cost of the service or activ ity.

2.2.2 FEE ESTABLISHMENT
Establishing fees includes a range of consideration s. The Study’s process provided each division the opportunity to propose additions and deletions to t heir fee schedules, as well as rename, reorganize, and clarify fee names and categories. In most cases, th e current structure of fees did not change; the foc us is to recalibrate the fee amount to match the costs of services. In several cases, however, fee categorie s and fee names were simplified or re-structured to incre ase the likelihood of full cost recovery, or to enh ance the fairness of how the fee applies to various type s of fee payers.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 8
Many such revisions better conform fees to current practices, as well as improve the calculation of fe es owed by an individual, the application of fees, and the collection of revenues. Beyond this, some additions to the fee schedule were simply identific ation of existing services or activities performed by City staff for which no fee is currently charged.

The City’s fee schedule should include the list of fully burdened rates developed by the Study.

Documenting these rates in the fee schedule provide s an opportunity for the City Council to approve ra tes for cost recovery under a “time and materials” appr oach. It also provides clear publication of those r ates, so fee payers of any uniquely determined fee can re ference the amounts. The fee schedule should provide language that supports special forms of cos t recovery for activities and services not contempl ated by the adopted master fee schedule. These rare inst ances use the published rates to estimate a flat fe e, or bill on an hourly basis, at the discretion of th e director of each department.

2.2.3 COST RECOVERY EVALUATION
The NBS fee model compares the existing fee for eac h service or activity to the average total cost of service quantified through this analysis. A cost re covery rate of 0% identifies no current recovery of costs from fee revenues (or insufficient information avai lable for evaluation). A rate of 100% means that th e fee currently recovers the full cost of service. A rate between 0% and 100% indicates partial recovery of the full cost of service through fees. A rate greater t han 100% means that the fee exceeded the full cost of service.

User fees and regulatory fees examined in this Stud y should not exceed the full cost of service. In ot her words, the cost recovery rate achieved by a fee sho uld not be greater than 100%. In most cases, chargi ng a fee above this threshold could require the consen sus of the voters.

NBS also assists with modeling the “recommended” or “targeted” level of cost recovery for each fee, always established at 100%, or less, than the calcu lated full cost of service. Targets and recommendat ions always reflect agency-specific judgments linked to a variety of factors, such as existing policies, ag ency- wide or departmental revenue objectives, economic g oals, community values, market conditions, level of demand, and others.

A general means of selecting an appropriate cost re covery target is to consider the public and private benefits of the service or activity in question.
 To what degree does the public at large benefit fro m the service?  To what degree does the individual or entity reques ting, requiring, or causing the service benefit?

When a service or activity completely benefits the public at large, there is generally little to no recommended fee amount (i.e., 0% cost recovery), re flecting that a truly public-benefit service is bes t funded by the general resources of the City, such a s General Fund revenues (e.g., taxes). Conversely, when a service or activity completely benefits an i ndividual or entity, there is generally closer to o r equal to 100% of cost recovery from fees, collected from the individual or entity. An example of a completel y private benefit service may be a request for exempt ion from a City regulation or process.

User Fee Analysis 9

In some cases, a strict public-versus-private benef it judgment may not be sufficient to finalize a cos t recovery target. Any of the following other factors and considerations may influence or supplement the public/private benefit perception of a service or a ctivity:
 If optimizing revenue potential is an overriding go al, is it feasible to recover the full cost of service?
 Will increasing fees result in non-compliance or pu blic safety problems?  Are there desired behaviors or modifications to beh aviors of the service population helped or hindered through the degree of pricing for the acti vities?  Does current demand for services support a fee incr ease without adverse impact to the citizenry served or current revenue levels? (In oth er words, would fee increases have the unintended consequence of driving away the populati on served?)  Is there a good policy basis for differentiating be tween type of users (e.g., residents and non- residents, residential and commercial, non-profit e ntities, and business entities)?  Are there broader City objectives that inform a les s than full cost recovery target from fees, such as economic development goals and local social values?

Because this element of the Study is subjective, NB S provides each fee calculation at 100% full cost recovery as well as the framework for the City to a djust recommended fee amounts in accordance with the City’s goals as pertains to code compliance, co st recovery, economic development, and social value s.

City staff and elected officials are responsible fo r localizing the information into a Master Fee Sche dule that meets community needs.

2.2.4 COMPARATIVE FEE SURVEY
Appendix B presents the results of the Comparative Fee Survey for the City of Tracy. Often policy make rs request a comparison of their jurisdiction’s fees t o surrounding or similar communities. The purpose o f a comparison is to provide a sense of the local marke t pricing for services, and to use that information to gauge the impact of recommendations for fee adjustm ents.

NBS worked with the City to choose five comparative agencies: Brentwood, Stockton, Livermore, Manteca and Modesto. The following should be noted about th e general approach to, and use of, comparative survey data:
 Comparative surveys do not provide information abou t the cost recovery policies or procedures inherent in each comparison agency.
 A “market based” decision to price services below t he full cost of service calculation, is the same as making a decision to subsidize that service .
 Comparative agencies may or may not base their fee amounts on the estimated and reasonable cost of providing services. NBS did not perform the same level of analysis provided for this Study on the comparative agencies’ fees.
 Comparative fee survey efforts are often non-conclu sive for many fee categories. Comparison agencies typically use varied terminology for provi sion of similar services.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 10
In general, NBS reasonably attempts to source each comparison agency’s fee schedule from the Internet, and compile a comparison of fee categories and amou nts for the most readily comparable fee items that match the client’s existing fee structure.

2.2.5 DATA SOURCES
The following data sources were used to support the cost of service analysis and fee establishment pha ses of this Study:
 The City of Tracy’s Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year 2018-2019. Given the long timeline required to complete the Study, a 2% COLA adjustmen t was added to all salary costs included in the analysis to keep better pace with current ye ar costs.  A complete listing of all City personnel, salary/wa ge rates, regular hours, paid benefits, and paid leave amounts – provided by the Finance Depart ment.  Various correspondences with the City staff support ing the adopted budgets and current fees, including budget notes and expenditure detail not s hown in the published document.  Prevailing fee schedules by each involved departmen t/division, per the City’s Master Fee Schedule for FY 20/21.
 When available, annual workload data from a prior f iscal year provided by each involved department/division.

The City’s adopted budget is the most significant s ource of information affecting cost of service resu lts.

NBS did not audit or validate the City’s financial management and budget practices. This Study has accepted the City’s budget as a legislatively adopt ed directive describing the most appropriate and reasonable level of City spending. Consultants acce pt the City Council’s deliberative process and ulti mate acceptance of the budget plan and further assert th at through that legislative process, the City has yielded a reasonable expenditure plan, valid for us e in setting cost-based fees.

FINANCE DEPARTMENT
The Finance Department ensures the fiscal foundatio n necessary to deliver community services. The Department is responsible for City budget preparati on and compliance, accounting and financial reporting, debt issuance and management, accounts p ayable, City employee payroll preparation, utility billing, business licensing, accounts receivable, c ashiering, and sales. The Finance Department also includes the elected office of City Treasurer who o versees the investment of City funds.

The Finance Department section of the City’s fee sc hedule includes several miscellaneous administrativ e fees for services such as Business Licenses and Tra nsient Occupancy Tax.  Business Licenses –
o Transfer, assignment, or duplication fee – The City outsources this service; rates are subject to increase by CPI at beginning of each cal endar year per City agreement with Vendor.
o State disability access fee – This fee is set by th e State of California and is included on the fee schedule for transparency to applicants.
 Transient Occupancy Tax – Transient Occupancy Tax d oes not currently reside on City’s Master Fee Schedule but is being added as part of t his Study. The City outsources this service; rates are subject to increase by CPI at beginning o f each calendar year per City agreement with Vendor.

The City of Tracy Finance Department facilitates th e services listed above by outsourcing them to a th ird party. Since the services are outsourced, no cost o f service analysis was performed. Appendix A.1 presents displays the Finance Department’s proposed list of fees to be included in the Master Fee Schedule.

C ITY MANAGER CABLE TV DEPARTMENT (CCTV)
The City Manager Cable TV (CCTV) Department provides the residents with programming that reflects the City’s diversity. Festivals, Parades, Ground Breakings, Music, City Council Meetings, Ribbon Cuttings and Block Parties are a few of the programs offered by the City’s Governmental Access Station.

5.1 Cost of Service Analysis
CCTV staff provide services internally to various City departments, as well as externally to residents and local businesses that wish to utilize the City’s studio and production facilities. Table 3 below reflects the annual cost of service analysis outcome for internal services to other City Departments, labeled as “Cable TV / Citywide Internal Production Support”. Additionally, NBS developed a set of composite fully burdened hourly rates for full-time and part-time CCTV personnel. This structure of hourly rates best reflects the way the Department typically staffs CCTV services and activities.

TABLE 3. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATES – CCTV – FULL TIME/PART TIME Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and allocated costs considered in the development of the rate. All subsequent cost of service calculations at the individual fee level assumes a fully burdened hourly rate of $156 for full-time employees and $62 for part-time employees in support of external customers. When work is performed after hours, a rate of $184 for full- time employees, and $73 for part-time employees can be used.

5.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
Appendix A.3 presents the results of the detailed c ost recovery analysis for CCTV fees. These fees are charged to residents and businesses that wish to ut ilize the City’s studio and production facilities. The City does not currently charge internal departments for CCTV services.

In the Appendix, the “Cost of Service per Activity” column establishes the maximum adoptable fee amount for the corresponding service identified in the “Fee Name” list. The “Cost of Service Per Activ ity” for each fee item is compared to the City’s current fee for each service, and the “Existing Cost Recov ery %” shows whether each fee is under, over, or approx imately equal to the cost of providing the service.

CCTV fees currently recover approximately 43% of th e total annual cost of providing services. As shown in the following table, the City collects approximatel y $1,095 per year in revenues at current fee amount s.

At full cost recovery, the same demand for these se rvices would recover approximately $2,600. Should the City Council adopt all fees at 100% of the Cost of Service per Activity amounts shown, revenue wil l increase by approximately $1,500 per year.

TABLE 4. COST RECOVERY OUTCOME - CCTV

NBS provided the full cost of service information a nd the framework for considering fees, while those closest to the fee-paying population, City Manager Cable TV staff, considered appropriate cost recover y levels at or below that full cost. The “Recommended Fee Level / Deposit” column in Appendix A.3 displa ys staff’s initial recommended fee amounts. City Staff recommended recovering 100% of the costs of providing services.

GRAND THEATRE CENTER FOR THE ARTS /

CULTURAL ARTS DIVISION
The Grand Theatre Center for the Arts is a professi onal arts organization and educative center within City government, as well as an important public resource as an economic redevelopment project in historic downtown Tracy. The Grand is a managed facility of the Division as a municipal, regional, interdiscipl inary arts center. The Center features two theatres, thre e galleries, nine studio classrooms, as well as num erous public spaces built throughout five interconnected buildings. This design creates a lively point of community congregation, a unique cultural destinati on in the region, and provides significant cultural influence to the public and peers groups alike. The Cultural Arts Division Staff hosts the community-a t- large and regularly consults with arts and cultural groups, as well as government and planning professionals seeking collaboration and information for use in their own projects. The Grand Foundatio n is the dedicated non-profit fundraising partner of the facility supporting programming and technical needs. The Center will celebrate its 15th Anniversa ry Season in 2021-22, and commemorate the 100-Year Anniversary of the historic Grand Theatre in 2023.

6.1 Cost of Service Analysis
For purposes of analysis, the cost of three primary categories of services offered at the Center were analyzed:
 Arts Education Program – providing instruction in d ance, drama, music, literary arts, and visual arts. The City charges a fee for these servi ces and class offerings, which experience normal fluctuations seasonally or annually dependin g on the demand for services and/or availability of staff or contractors to run classes .
 Rental Program – the specialized amenities, spaces, and equipment may be rented for use for events, productions, and school & community events.
 Other Cultural Arts and Theatre Programs – includin g Exhibitions Program, Presenting Program, Volunteer Program, Tracy Arts Commission, etc.

The following table shows the annual cost of servic e outcomes for the Grand Theatre Center for the Art s and Cultural Arts Division in total, as well as per each service category:

As shown, the total annual cost of providing all Ce nter and Cultural Arts Division services is approxi mately $2.4 million per year. Additionally, NBS developed a set of composite fully burdened hourly rates for full- time and part-time personnel. This structure of hou rly rates best reflects the way the Division typica lly staffs its services and activities.

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. For cost recovery related to support of any direct services provided to the public for use of the Center or whe n developing the cost of individual and/or seasonal arts education programs, the Division may utilize t he fully burdened rate of $159 for full-time employees, $48 for part-time employees, or $124 as an average rate regardless of full or part time status. When work is performed after hours, a rate of $175 for full-time employees, $53 for part-time employees, and $136 on average can be used.

6.2 Fee Establishment
The Division’s current fee structure includes fees for Arts Education and Rental Programs. Fee revenue represents an important source of funding to help c over costs and sustain, if not improve, the level o f service provided by the City.

Arts Education Program Fees listed on the fee sched ule can include Ceramics & Fused Glass, Dance, Drama, Visual Arts, Music, Literary Arts, Senior cl asses, and more.

Fees for use of the Center are categorized as follo ws:
 EK Theatre and Studio Theatre are currently charged for an initial baseline number of hours of facility use, plus an hourly rate for additional ho urs of use as needed. Fee amounts vary depending on whether the facility is utilized durin g “Prime Time” hours or “Non-Prime Time” hours, whether the use of the facility is for a reh earsal, meeting, or performance, and whether the fee payor is a Non-Profit or Commercial entity.

 Box Office services are charged per event. Spaces s uch as the Dance Studio, Visual Arts Studios, Children’s Studio, Lobby Areas, etc. are c harged per hour of use, with lower required numbers of initial baseline hours of paid use. Rate s for Non-Profit and Commercial use vary, like the EK Theatre and Studio Theatre rates.
 Equipment rental such as pianos, microphone, tables , chairs, etc., and technical support are charged mostly on a per use / each basis.
 Miscellaneous labor fees are charged by the hour fo r various positions required for technical or facilitation services. Additional fees such as j anitorial services per day, and an agreement processing fee also apply.

During the Study, NBS and the Division did not rest ructure the names and categorization of services shown within the list of current fees. The structur e of fees for the Division is working well for the City, and it was determined that the City could continue with current practices or revise the fee structure on a n ongoing basis as program offerings for Arts Educati on change, or as the groups using the Theatre’s nee ds change over time. The next section, Cost Recovery E valuation, provides some specific legal parameters and industry norms specific to the setting of renta l rates for government owned facilities, and recreational programs.

6.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
The fees charged by the Grand Theatre Center for th e Arts / Cultural Arts Division are either fees for recreational classes and programs, or fees for use of government property (the Center). Per Article XI II C of the California Constitution, classes and program fees are limited to the estimated costs of providi ng services. 1 The Article’s language pertaining to fees for use of government property does not include the “reasonable costs” limitation; 2 however, a general law city is subject to the cons traint on the amount of a fee charged by Government Code section 50402. 3

Recreation class and program offerings are typicall y seasonal in nature. They change subject to availa bility of resources to provide specialized instruction as well as local demand for the type of instruction of fered.

Additionally, pricing of services tends to be signi ficantly influenced by the price for similar servic es offered by surrounding public agencies and other non-profit providers.

Because of these conditions, NBS’s approach to cost recovery evaluation is to perform a high-level cos t analysis by basic program area to assist with under standing cost recovery performance and in developin g a cost recovery policy, rather than an analysis at the individual fee level as seen in most other chap ters of this report. The program-level cost recovery analys is estimated the Division’s annual cost recovery performance by comparing the revenues collected, to the total program costs established through the Study. The following table summarizes results of th at analysis:

1 Article XIII C, Section 1 (e)(2) Exception for Fees for Services and Products Provided 2 Article XIII C, Section 1 (e)(4) exception for fees for use of government property 3 50402 (a) A city, county, or city and county owning property or leasing property which is devoted to park, amusement, or recreational purposes may make a charge for use or services provided therein in the amount as may be provided by resolution by the governing body. No charge shall be imposed which exceeds the cost of the service provided.

TABLE 7. COST RECOVERY EVALUATION – GRAND THEATRE CENTER FOR THE ARTS /

CULTURAL ARTS DIVISION

As shown, the City recovers approximately 18% of th e full cost of running the Arts Education Program, 15% of the Rental Program, and 16% of Other Cultura l Arts and Theatre Programs. The City collects approximately $398,000 per year in revenues at curr ent fee amounts. At full cost recovery, the same demand for these services would recover approximate ly $2.4 million. If the City were to charge 100% fu ll cost recovery for these services, of the cost of pr oviding each service, an additional $2.0 million in costs could be recovered.

The seasonal and market driven pricing nature of th e service offered by the Grand Theatre Center for t he Arts & Cultural Arts Division will influence how be st to use the Cost Recovery Evaluation’s results to ward updating the Division’s individual fee amounts. It is uncommon for cultural arts programs, especially those for senior and youth, to recover 100% of the costs of providing services. These programs are generally seen by both elected officials and residents as a s ervice beneficial to the community that should rema in affordable to encourage participation. The Division and Council may want to consider an overall percentage increase to existing fee amounts “across the board” to come closer to, but not completely achieve, 100% cost recovery for any given program. For more discussion on factors influencing policy decisions to recover 100%, or less, of any given se rvice through fees for service, see Section 2.2.3, Cost Recovery Evaluation , of this Report.

NBS provides the full cost of service information a nd the framework for considering fees, while those closest to the fee-paying population, Division staf f and City Council, can utilize this information to recommend and adopt fees at appropriate cost recove ry levels equal to or below the full cost calculati on.

The Division’s staff report provides any initially recommended changes to fees for the Council’s consideration.

BUILDING SAFETY DIVISION
The Building Safety Division is responsible for per mit processing, plan review, and inspections. The t eam provides public counter services, plan review for r esidential projects and commercial projects, and fi eld inspections for code compliance during the construc tion phase of a project.

7.1 Cost of Service Analysis
NBS calculated the total estimated annual cost of B uilding Safety Division services, segregated betwee n those costs that are eligible and/or targeted for r ecovery in fees for service, versus those that requ ire another funding source other than fees. Fee-recover able costs are also translated into a “fully burden ed” hourly rate, for purposes of individual fee calcula tions. Table 8 shows the summary of outcomes from t he Cost of Service Analysis:

TABLE 8. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATE - BUILDING

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. The tota l annual cost of the Building Safety Division per y ear is approximately $3.7 million. Approximately 95% of th e total costs are eligible and/or targeted for reco very in fees, while approximately $200,000 require anoth er funding source. All subsequent cost of service calculations at the individual fee level assume a f ully burdened hourly rate of $134 for the Building Safety Division. When work is performed after hours, a rat e of $147 can be used.

requests for plan check and permitting. Building Sa fety Division staff estimated that approximately 95% of these costs support the plan c heck and permitting process and are therefore targeted for recovery in fees for service s, while the remaining 5% are pertaining to general governmental services such as public record s requests, or inquiries that do not pertain to an active project or result in an active permit application. General governmental services require another funding source than fees f or services.  CIP – Building staff support the review and Implementat ion of various City capital improvement projects (CIP). These costs are not tar geted for recovery in building’s fees for services and should be recovered from the City’s ca pital project funding sources.  Code Enforcement / Complaint Response – Work activities in response to a complaint received by the Building Division related to violat ion of a prior condition of approval, Ordinance or State law. Includes complaint investig ation, follow up, and any associated abatement or enforcement actions. These costs could be recovered through fines or penalties when efforts to gain compliance become excessive.
 Direct Permitting Services (Processing/Plan Check/I nspection) – Work activities associated with active building processing, plan check and per mit applications, and inspection. 100% of these costs are recoverable in fees for service.

7.2 Fee Establishment
The City’s basis for most of its Building, Electric al, Mechanical, and Plumbing Permits is to determin e a project’s value, as determined by building valuatio n data table, and to then apply fee amounts as established by the 1997 Administrative Code. While use of the 1997 Administrative Code fee table is an acceptable method for setting fees, the structure a nd amounts of fees charged by the City as a result are outdated in terms of current industry practices emp loyed in California in 2021. The Building Division’ s fees are regulatory in nature, and in California ar e also limited to the cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged. This Study focused on ali gning fee amounts with the cost of services provide d rather than applying the 1997 Administrative Code’s fee amounts at face values.

Overall, the Division took the opportunity within t his Fee Study to significantly restructure the fee schedule. Notable changes include:
 Building Permit and Plan Check Fees - Overall, the method of calculating fees in terms of first establishing a project’s value and then applying th e fee amounts from the scaled fee table is the same.
o Recommended publishing actual scaled fee tables so the public and see what fee amounts apply per the value of their project.
o Expanded scaled tables to include higher project va lue tiers to better align with City’s currently experienced average project valuations.
o Developed separate scaled tables between Residentia l/Multi- Family/Commercial/Industrial building code designat ions.  Miscellaneous Minor Permits - Based on a review of recent building permit record types, a list of over the counter permit projects was established . The list includes projects such as:
demolition, pools, patio covers, decks, doors/windo ws, remodels, re-roof, signs, etc. These

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 22
fees can be charged on a “per project”/ “per permit ” basis, and do not need to utilize the project value approach required for larger projects with more elaborate scopes of work involved.
 Electrical, Mechanical, and Plumbing Permit Fees – these fees continue to be itemized so that permits can be combined with larger projects that a re assessed Building Permit and Plan Check Fees, as well as be tailored for small stand- alone projects such as changing out a residential water heater.
 Addition of new fee categories, notated as “New” in the Current Fee / Deposit column of Appendix A.4:

7.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
Appendix A.4 presents the results of the detailed c ost recovery analysis for the Building Safety Divis ion’s fees. In the Appendix, the “Cost of Service per Act ivity” column establishes the maximum adoptable fee amount for the corresponding service identified in the “Fee Name” list. The “Cost of Service Per Activ ity” for each fee item is compared to the City’s current fee for each service, and the “Existing Cost Recov ery %” shows whether each fee is under, over, or approx imately equal to the cost of providing the service.

This Cost of Service per Activity calculation is re flective of the Building Division’s costs, as well the Engineering Division’s costs for supportive review as required by the City’s established development review processes. Planning also provides supportive review to Building Division plan and permit submittals. Planning has established a separate set of fees to be applied per project for each review completed, whereas the cost for providing inspectio n support for BSD projects are represented herein.

Building Safety Division fees currently recover app roximately 111% of the total annual cost of providi ng services. As shown in the following table, the City collects approximately $5.2 million per year in re venues at current fee amounts. At full cost recovery, the same demand for these services would recover approximately $4.7 million. Should the City Council adopt all fees at 100% of the Cost of Service per Activity amounts shown, revenue will decrease by ap proximately $515,000 per year.

TABLE 9. COST RECOVERY OUTCOME

NBS provided the full cost of service information a nd the framework for considering fees, while those closest to the fee-paying population, Building Safe ty Division staff, considered appropriate cost reco very levels at or below that full cost. The “Recommended Fee Level / Deposit” column in Appendix A.4 displa ys staff’s initial recommended fee amounts. With staff ’s recommended adjustments, building fees are projected to recover just under 100% of the costs o f providing services.

ENGINEERING DIVISION
The Engineering Division reviews plans for all priv ate developments including residential, commercial, and industrial development to ensure conformance with C ity standards. Inspection services ensure compliance with city standards on all public and pr ivate projects. The sections within the Engineering Division covered by this analysis include Engineeri ng Project Review, Construction management, and Project Plan Checks.

8.1 Cost of Service Analysis
NBS calculated the total estimated annual cost of f ee related services within the Engineering Division , and translated costs into a “fully burdened” hourly rat e, for purposes of individual fee calculations. Tab le 10 shows the summary of outcomes from the Cost of Serv ice Analysis:

TABLE 10. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATE - ENGINEERING

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. The tota l annual cost of the Engineering Division per year is approximately $4.3 million. All subsequent cost of service calculations at the individual fee level as sume a fully burdened hourly rate of $108 for Development Plan Check and $130 for Development Inspection.

When work is performed after hours, a rate of $133 can be used for Development Plan Check and $142 for Development Inspection.

8.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
Appendix A.5 presents the results of the detailed c ost recovery analysis for the Engineering Division’ s fees. In the Appendix, the “Cost of Service per Act ivity” column establishes the maximum adoptable fee amount for the corresponding service identified in the “Fee Name” list. The “Cost of Service Per Activ ity” for each fee item is compared to the City’s current fee for each service, and the “Existing Cost Recov ery %” shows whether each fee is under, over, or approx imately equal to the cost of providing the service.

Each Cost of Service per Activity calculation is re flective of the Engineering Division’s development plan check and inspection costs, as well the Planning, B uilding, and Public Works department/division costs for supportive review as required by the City’s establi shed development review processes.

Engineering Division’s fees currently recover appro ximately 62% of the total annual cost of providing services. As shown in the following table, the City collects approximately $3.5 million per year in re venues at current fee amounts. At full cost recovery, the same demand for these services would recover approximately $5.6 million. Should the City Council adopt all fees at 100% of the Cost of Service per Activity amounts shown, revenue will increase by ap proximately $2.1 million per year.

PLANNING DIVISION
The Planning Division is responsible for implementi ng City policies that direct the physical developme nt and community character of the City. Implementation of City development policies involves analysis and establishing conformance to local implementing plan s, including various Specific Plans, the Zoning Cod e, Growth Management Ordinance and Guidelines, Planned Unit Developments, and the City’s Design Guidelines. Project development and approvals also involved environmental analysis to determine environmental impacts.

9.1 Cost of Service Analysis
NBS calculated the total estimated annual cost of P lanning Division services, segregated between those costs that are eligible and/or targeted for recover y in fees for service, versus those that require an other funding source other than fees. Fee-recoverable cos ts are also translated into a “fully burdened” hour ly rate, for purposes of individual fee calculations. Table 12 shows the summary of outcomes from the Cos t of Service Analysis:

TABLE 12. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATE - PLANNING

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. The tota l annual cost of the Planning Division per year is approximately $1.6 million. Approximately 46% of th e total costs are eligible and/or targeted for reco very in fees, while approximately $863,000 require anoth er funding source. All subsequent cost of service calculations at the individual fee level assume a f ully burdened hourly rate of $150 for Planning Division support. When work is performed after hours, a rate of $170 can be used.

These costs are not recommended for recovery from P lanning fees.

 Counter Time/Public Information – Planning Staff responds to phone calls and general information requests that support the development r eview process. Costs associated with the provision of general public information and public counter services are not only a basic and expected function of governmental services to the p ublic, but also an overall supportive and beneficial service to active and incoming applicati ons and requests for development approval.

Planning staff estimated that approximately 70% of these costs support land use application review activities and are therefore targeted for re covery in fees for services, while the remaining 30% require another funding source other than fees.  Long Range Planning – Planning staff support the ongoing maintenance a nd cyclical update of the City’s General Plan and local zoning ordinances . These costs are targeted for recovery through the General Plan Surcharge as provided in t he subsequent chapter.  Direct Current Planning Services – Development review and approval comprises the ma jority of the Planning Division’s work efforts. 100% of th ese costs are eligible for recovery from the Division’s fees for service.

GENERAL PLAN SURCHARGE
The Planning Division is responsible for updating t he City’s General Plan on a routine basis. This Pla n helps to guide the growth of the community in a consisten t manner. Government Code 66014 (b) allows local agencies to, “…include the costs reasonably necessa ry to prepare and revise the plans and policies tha t a local agency is required to adopt before it can mak e any necessary findings and determinations.” This section of the Government Code supports the inclusi on of costs for general plan maintenance and updates in fees for service.

10.1 Cost of Service Analysis
As shown in
Table 1 below, the annual cost of a comprehensive G eneral Plan update and its associated implementation is approximately $449,000. This amou nt is based on the Department’s estimate of $2.3 million in consultant and staff costs required for comprehensive updates to be performed every 1 - 10 years.

TABLE 1. ANNUAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE COSTS

10.2 Fee Establishment
The Department and City Council should agree upon a desired annual cost recovery target for this fee program that is either equal to or less than 100%.

The City’s General Plan and Housing Element are the key plans, policies, and legal parameters required for the approval of development projects. However, it i s also recognized that the General Plan has other applications which the City uses in its continued e fforts to serve its existing residents and business es.

When developing a reasonable surcharge, each jurisd iction’s policy makers must decide to what degree new development impacts the revision and maintenanc e efforts of their General Plan, and to what degree the General Plan is required for approval of new de velopment projects. For jurisdictions with large amounts of undeveloped land available, the impact i s typically higher than for jurisdictions that are closer Cost Total Cost Amortization

to the “build-out” of available land resources. For example, Planning Division staff estimated that approximately 85% of the effort and costs shown in the table above are attributable to Development Review. Therefore, a reasonable surcharge could equ al up to or below 85% recovery of costs.

In addition, the surcharge should apply only to dev elopment projects that have a significant impact on the update of the General Plan, or that are subject to more review and approval pertaining to the policies and requirements therein. The proposed surcharge is a p ercentage charged on top of the fee collected by th e Building division for each identified relevant fee type. Relevant fee types include all new constructi on and additions building permit and plan check fees for p rojects that are greater than $100,000 in value.

The following table provides options for surcharge amounts based on various cost recovery targets:

TABLE 2. SURCHARGE CALCULATION

To recover 85% of the costs shown in Table 14 for u pdating and maintaining the City’s General Plan, a

0.06% surcharge fee needs to be added to each Build ing project that is impacted by the General Plan.

10.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
The City does not currently charge a fee for Genera l Plan Surcharge. The proposed surcharge would appl y to selected types of building applications as discu ssed above. At 85% cost recovery, the surcharge wou ld recover approximately $382,000 annually.

COMMUNITY FACILITIES DIVISION
The Community Facilities Division facilitates the r ental of the City’s parks and facilities. The City of Tracy has numerous spaces available, which are utilized f or meetings and events, including: Tracy Transit Station Meeting Rooms and Lobby, Civic Center Meeti ng Rooms and Lobby, the Sports Complex Meeting Room, and the Tracy Community Center. The Division also coordinates the usage of its sports fields to many of the local sports organizations, as well as reservation of city streets as needed for community events. In addition to its primary role in parks an d facility rentals, the Division also supports the Recreation Division with its program and service of ferings throughout the year as needed.

Rental and permit fees, along with resources from t he City’s General Fund, provide funding for the var iety of parks and facilities available to the Tracy comm unity. The fees collected for these programs repres ent an important source of funding to help cover costs and sustain – if not improve – the level of service provided by the City.

11.1 Cost of Service Analysis
The total estimated annual cost of the Community Fa cilities Division is approximately $1.4 million per year. The table below provides further detail for t he primary programs and services offered:

TABLE 17. COMMUNITY FACILITES - COST OF SERVICE ANALYSIS

NBS gathered data regarding the amount of staff tim e per year spent on the Division’s various programs and services, and used that information as a primar y driver in determining the total Citywide costs of providing each program. Section 2.2.1, Cost of Serv ice Analysis, provides further definition and discu ssion of the elements of each total program cost calculat ion (such as Labor, Recurring Non-Labor, etc.).

Categorization of the Division’s primary services a re briefly described as follows:
 Patrol – Activities that support the safety and maintenance of community facilities locations.

These costs can be recovered indirectly through fac ility use/rental rates.  Building Rentals – Rental of the Community Center, Senior Center, Tra cy Sports Complex Meeting Room, Transit Station, Civic Center, and St orage Containers. These costs are 100% recoverable through rental rates.
 Park and Picnic Areas – Includes use of park and picnic areas, parking lot s, and tennis courts.

These costs are 100% recoverable through rental rat es.

 Recreation Programs Support – Community Facilities Division staff support the ope rations of various recreational programs offered by the Recrea tion Division.

As some fees and services will require application of staff hourly rates, NBS derived the following bl ended fully burdened labor rates for full time versus par t time personnel. This was performed uniquely for t he Division, to conform to the way it typically staffs services and activities. Table 18 provides a summa ry of the hourly cost of service outcomes:

TABLE 18. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATES – COMMUNITY FACILITES DIVISION – FULL TIME/PART TIME

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. Since st affing resources are shared between the Community Facilities and Recreation Division’s, a blended rat e has been calculated for use by both Division’s. T he fully burdened hourly rate for full-time staff is $213 ; part-time staff, $27. When work is performed after hours, the rates shown in the table as “Overtime Rate” can be applied.

11.2 Fee Establishment
The Division’s current fee schedule is mostly compr ised of rental fees for City parks and facilities. There are also a few fees in the list that are for indivi dual service requests. The difference between these types of fees is important, as further described in the C ost Recovery Evaluation section of this Chapter, be low.

During the Study, NBS and the Division did not rest ructure the names and categorization of services shown within the list of current fees. The structur e of fees for the Division is working well for the City, and it was determined that the City could continue with current practices or revise the fee structure on a n ongoing basis as the needs or types of groups using City parks and facilities change over time. The ne xt section, Cost Recovery Evaluation, provides some sp ecific legal parameters and industry norms specific to the setting of rental rates for government owned fa cilities, and recreational programs.

11.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
NBS performed a program-level cost recovery analysi s which estimated annual cost recovery performance by comparing the revenues collected, to the total a nnual costs of services established through the Stu dy.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 34
TABLE 19. COST RECOVERY EVALUATION – COMMUNITY FACILITES DIVISION

As shown, the City recovers approximately 69% of th e full cost of Building Rentals, 22% of Park & Picn ic Area rentals, 20% of Sports Facilities, 29% of Pool Rentals, and 2% of Parades Permits. The City colle cts approximately $283,000 per year in revenues at curr ent fee amounts. At full cost recovery, the same demand for these services would recover approximate ly $1.4 million. If the City were to charge 100% fu ll cost recovery for these services, of the cost of pr oviding each service, an additional $1.1 million in costs could be recovered.

The fees charged by the Division are either fees fo r individual service requests, or fees for use of government property. Per Article XIII C of the Cali fornia Constitution, classes and program fees are l imited to the estimated costs of providing services.
4 The Article’s language pertaining to fees for use of
government property does not include the “reasonabl e costs” limitation; 5 however, a general law city is subject to the constraint on the amount of a fee ch arged by Government Code section 50402. 6

There are several unique attributes regarding the s ervices provided by the Community Facilities Divisi on that influence how best to use the Cost Recovery Ev aluation results toward updating the Division’s individual fee amounts.

Facility Rental Fees

In NBS’ experience, it is uncommon for community fa cility rental fees to recover 100% of the costs of providing services. Access to and use of facilities is generally seen by both elected officials and re sidents as a service beneficial to the community that shoul d remain affordable. Therefore, the Division and Council may want to consider an overall percentage increase to existing fee amounts “across the board” in order to come closer to, but not completely achi eve, 100% cost recovery for any given program.

Additionally, the results of the survey are include d in Appendix B.5 to this Report. In general, the C ity’s

No charge shall be imposed which exceeds the cost of the service provided.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 35
facility rental fees are lower than comparison agen cies. Most comparison agencies separate rates for resident vs non-resident applicants, which could al low for greater overall cost recovery. For more discussion on NBS’ approach to, as well as the gene ral limitations of, comparative surveys, consult Se ction

2.2.4 of this report.

Regarding fees for lighting of facilities and field s on an as needed basis, if the City maintains mete red data for individual locations that have lights or has ac cess to cost per hour paid for electricity, field a nd facility lighting fees can be set according to the actual co sts incurred per hour by the City during hours in w hich lights are typically used. It would also be accepta ble to set lighting fees in line with a comparison of similar usage fees charged by other surrounding mun icipalities.

Service Request Fees

As listed above, the Division charges several servi ce request fees. To evaluate these fees for service s, NBS interviewed staff to gather the estimated amount of time associated with all service request fees. Usi ng the time estimates provided by City staff in combin ation with the fully-burdened hourly rates calculat ed above, NBS estimated the full cost for providing ea ch service.

As some fees and services will require application of staff hourly rates, NBS derived the following bl ended fully burdened labor rates for full time versus par t time personnel. This was performed uniquely for t he Division, to conform to the way it typically staffs services and activities. Table 22 provides a summa ry of the hourly cost of service outcomes:

TABLE 22. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATES – RECREATION DIVISION – FULL TIME/PART TIME

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. Since st affing resources are shared between the Community Facilities and Recreation Division’s, a blended rat e has been calculated for use by both Division’s. T he fully burdened hourly rate for full-time staff is $213 ; part-time staff, $27 . When work is performed after hours, the rates shown in the table as “Overtime Rate” can be applied.

12.2 Fee Establishment
The Division’s current fee schedule is comprised of program fees or recreational classes and service offerings. There are several miscellaneous fees suc h as for advertising in the City’s seasonal Activit y Guide, software transaction fees, and special regis tration discounts. These miscellaneous fee items we re not evaluated within the scope of this Fee Study.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 39
During the Study, NBS and the Division did not rest ructure the names and categorization of the program s or services shown within the list of current fees. The structure of fees for the Division is working w ell for the City, and it was determined that the City could continue with current practices or revise the fee structure on an ongoing basis as the needs or types of groups participating in City programs change ov er time. The next section, Cost Recovery Evaluation, p rovides some specific legal parameters and industry norms specific to the setting of rental rates for g overnment owned facilities, and recreational progra ms.

12.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
Recreation class and program offerings are typicall y seasonal in nature. They change subject to availa bility of resources to provide specialized instruction as well as local demand for the type of instruction of fered.

Additionally, pricing of services tends to be signi ficantly influenced by the price for similar servic es offered by surrounding public agencies and other non-profit providers.

TABLE 23. COST RECOVERY EVALUATION – RECREATION DIVISION

As shown, the City’s overall cost recovery for the Recreation Division is 17%. Table 23 above provides a breakout of cost recovery percentages by individual program or service area.

The seasonal and market driven pricing nature of th e service offered by the Recreation Division will influence how best to use the Cost Recovery Evaluat ion’s results toward updating the Division’s indivi dual fee amounts. In NBS’ experience, it is uncommon for recreation program fees to recover 100% of the costs of providing services. Programs provided by t he Recreation Division are generally seen by both elected officials and residents as a service benefi cial to the community that should remain affordable .

Therefore, the Division and Council may want to con sider an overall percentage increase to existing fe e amounts “across the board” in order to come closer to, but not completely achieve, 100% cost recovery for any given program. The City may also continue i ts policy of discounting pricing for City of Tracy residents, and non-profit organizations through the use of general fund subsidy monies. It is importan t to remember that rates charged to non-residents and co mmercial organizations are subject to the 100% cost Expenditure Type

The results of comparison survey of fees are includ ed in Appendix B.6 to this Report. In general, many of the programs and classes offered by the City of Tra cy did not have readily comparable data to the agencies surveyed. This is due in part to the uniqu e nature of Tracy’s program/class offerings, in add ition to many agencies discontinuing services due to COVI D-19. Where comparisons were available, the following provides a high-level summary:
 Special Interest Classes – The City’s fees for Spec ial Interest classes were lower than agencies surveyed except for Tai Chi and Tennis Camps.
 After School Program – The City’s After School and summer camp programs are in line with other agencies except for the City of Stockton whic h offers lower fees.  Adult Sports – The City’s fees for Adult sports are higher than agencies surveyed  Youth Sports – The City’s fees for Youth sports are inline or lower than agencies surveyed  Aquatics – The City’s fees for Aquatics are in line or lower than agencies surveyed.

POLICE DEPARTMENT
The Police Department contains three Divisions: Fie ld Operations, Special Operations, and Support Operations. This Study focuses on miscellaneous fee s charged by the Department for services such as Alarm Permits and False Alarm Fees, Miscellaneous B usiness Permit Fees, Record and Report Copy Fees, Fingerprinting, Taxi Permits, Vehicle Release and T owing Fees, and Other Miscellaneous Administrative Fees. These fees relate to a specific service or ac tivity performed at the request of an individual or entity and are not intended to recover the costs of genera lized police services.

13.1 Cost of Service Analysis
Most of the fees analyzed in this Study are provide d by the Records section of the Support Operations Division, and the Patrol Force section of the Field Operations Division. As such, NBS calculated a composite fully-burdened hourly rate for each secti on relevant to the services studied. Table 24 show s the summary of outcomes from the Cost of Service An alysis:

TABLE 24. FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATE – POLICE PATROL

Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and al located costs considered in the development of the rate. All subs equent cost of service calculations at the individu al fee level assume a fully burdened hourly rate of $170 for Police Department Patrol support and $113 for Police Department Records support. When work is per formed after hours, a rate of $199 for Patrol staff, and $125 for Records staff can be used.

Appendix A.7 presents the results of the detailed c ost recovery analysis for the Police Department’s f ees.

Police Department fees currently recover approximat ely 95% of the total annual cost of providing services. As shown in the following table, the City collects approximately $189,000 per year in revenu es at current fee amounts. At full cost recovery, the sam e demand for these services would recover approximately $198,000. Should the City Council ado pt all fees at 100% of the Cost of Service per Acti vity amounts shown, revenue will decrease by approximate ly $9,500 per year.

MUNICIPAL AIRPORT
The Tracy Municipal Airport is located at the south end of Tracy Boulevard and was first constructed i n 1928 as the "American Legion Airport" in September of 1928 with its grand opening and a three-day airshow in April of 1929. Airport services include hangar rentals, tie-downs, flight training, aircraf t maintenance, aircraft sales and shipping, as well a s aviation and jet fuel sales.

16.1 Cost of Service Analysis
The following table shows the annual cost of servic e outcome for the Airport as approximately $795,000 per year. Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and all ocated costs considered.

TABLE 29. COST OF SERVICE ANALYSIS – MUNICIPAL AIRPORT

16.2 Fee Establishment
The Airport currently has one fee listed in the Cit y’s Master Fee Schedule under the Community Facilit ies section, which is a day rental rate for use of the Airport facility for non-aviation events. The Airpo rt also lists hangar rental fees on the City website. The c osts of airplane fuel are passed through to users o f the facility as needed at actual cost. The City’s Airpo rt Master Plan from 1998 appears to reference fees for Tiedowns, Flight Training, and other miscellaneous services. However, after talking with City staff, t hese fees are not currently utilized.

Per Article XIII C of the California Constitution, the current fees charged for use of the Airport fac ility qualify as fees for entrance to or use of governmen t property. The Article’s language pertaining to fe es for use of government property does not include the “re asonable costs” limitation; 7 however, as a general
law city, Tracy’s airport fees may be subject to th e constraint on the amount of a fee charged by Government Code section 50402. 8

7 Article XIII C, Section 1 (e)(4) exception for fees for use of government property 8 50402 (a) A city, county, or city and county owning property or leasing property which is devoted to park, amusement, or recreational purposes may make a charge for use or services provided therein in the amount as may be provided by resolution by the governing body. No charge shall be imposed which exceeds the cost of the service provided.

At a minimum, NBS recommends the City to publish an y and all facility use fees in the Master Fee Schedule rather than a combination of the Master Fe e Schedule and the City’s website. Also, a comparison survey of fees charged by other small an d/or regionally located municipal airports is locat ed in Appendix B.10 of this report, so that the City c an get a sense of what the general market pricing a nd options are for similar services.

16.3 Cost Recovery Evaluation
Similar to evaluations of facility use fees in othe r chapters of this report, NBS performed a high-lev el cost recovery analysis to assist in understanding curren t cost recovery performance. The analysis estimate d the Airport’s annual cost recovery performance by c omparing the revenues collected, to the total program costs established through the Study. The fo llowing table summarizes results of that analysis:

TABLE 30. COST RECOVERY EVALUATION – MUNICIPAL AIRPORT

As shown, the City recovers approximately 95% of th e full cost of operating the Airport. The City may want to consider an overall percentage increase to existing fee amounts “across the board” to achieve 100% cost recovery.

UTILITIES DEPARTMENT
The Utilities Department oversees the operation and maintenance of Water Treatment Plant, Wastewater Treatment Plant, Stormwater Management, Water Manag ement, Utilities Laboratory, Equipment and Street Lights / Traffic Signals Maintenance.

17.1 Cost of Service Analysis
Staffing for maintenance and operation of various C ity utility systems are shared between the Water, Wastewater, and Drainage budgetary units. NBS aggre gated costs between these units to calculate an average composite fully burdened hourly rate for pu rposes of individual fee calculations. All subseque nt cost of service calculations at the individual fee level assume a fully burdened hourly rate of $128 during business hours, and when work is performed after ho urs, a rate of $151 can be used. Section 2.2.1, Cost of Service Analysis, further describes the types of expenditures and allocated costs considered in the development of the rates included in this report.

17.2 Fee Establishment
Prior to this Study, the Utilities Department did n ot have a list of fees for services that can be use d to recover costs of providing various regulatory permi tting and inspection services. The Study focused on developing a fee schedule that the Department can u se to charge fees on a per request and per project basis. It should be noted that the fees studied are different than commodity water charges, etc. that are subject to Proposition 218.

As shown in Appendix A.10, a list of fees was devel oped for the following services:
 NPDES MS4 Permit and Water Efficiency Review
 Stormwater Post-Construction Standards Review
 Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (WELO) Review
 Stormwater Post-Construction Treatment Annual Maint enance Inspection  Construction General Permit – SWPPP or ESCP
 Construction Water – Metering

The “Cost of Service Per Activ ity” for each fee item is compared to the City’s current fee for each service, and the “Existing Cost Recov ery %” shows whether each fee is under, over, or approx imately equal to the cost of providing the service.

CITY OF TRACY
User Fee Analysis 50

The Utilities Department does not have a current fe e schedule and does not recover any annual cost of providing services. At full cost recovery, the same demand for these services would recover approximately $354,000. Should the City Council ado pt all fees at 100% of the Cost of Service per Acti vity amounts shown, revenue will increase by approximate ly $354,000 per year.

TABLE 31. COST RECOVERY OUTCOMES

NBS provided the full cost of service information a nd the framework for considering fees, while those closest to the fee-paying population, Utilities Dep artment staff, considered appropriate cost recovery levels at or below that full cost. The “Recommended Fee Level / Deposit” column in Appendix A.10 displays staff’s initial recommended fee amounts. W ith staff’s recommended adjustments, utilities fees are projected to recover 100% of the costs of provi ding services.

For more discussion on NBS’ overall approach to the Cost Recovery Evaluation, consult section 2.2.3 of the Report.

User Fee Analysis 51

CONCLUSION
Based on the Cost of Service Analysis, Fee Establis hment, and Cost Recovery Evaluation outcomes presented in this Study, the proposed Master Schedu le of Fees has been formatted for implementation and included in the accompanying Staff Report.

As discussed throughout this report, the proposed f ee schedule intends to improve the City’s recovery of costs incurred to provide individual services, as w ell as to adjust fees downward where fees charged exceed the average costs incurred. Predicting the a mount to which any adopted fee increases will affec t City revenues is difficult to quantify. For the nea r-term, the City should not count on increased reve nues to meet any specific expenditure plan. Experience w ith the revised fee amounts should be gained first before revenue projections are revised. However, un less there is some significant, long-term change in activity levels at the City, proposed fee amendment s should enhance the City’s cost recovery performance, over time, providing it the ability to stretch other resources further for the benefit of the public at large.

The City’s Master Fee Schedule should become a livi ng document but handled with care:
 A fundamental purpose of the fee schedule is to pro vide clarity and transparency to the public and to staff regarding fees imposed by the City. On ce adopted by the Council, the fee schedule is the final word on the amount and way fe es should be charged. Old fee schedules should be superseded by the new master document. If the master document is found to be missing fees, those fees need eventually to be adde d to the master schedule and should not continue to exist outside the consolidated, master framework.  The City should consider adjusting these user fees and regulatory fees on an annual basis to keep pace at least with cost inflation. For all fee s and charges, the City could use either a Consumer Price Index adjustment or a percentage of Labor Cost increase, and that practice would be well applied to the new fee schedule. Cond ucting a comprehensive user fee Study is not an annual requirement; it becomes worthwhile on ly over time as significant shifts in organization, local practices, legislative values, or legal requirements change.

As a final note in this Study, it is worth acknowle dging the path that fees in general have taken in California. The public demands ever more precise an d equitable accounting of the basis for governmenta l fees and a greater say in when and how they are cha rged. It is inevitable in the not too distant futur e, that user fees and regulatory fees will demand an even g reater level of analysis and supporting data to mee t the public’s evolving expectations. Technology syst ems will play an increased and significant role in an agency’s ability to accomplish this. Continuous imp rovement and refinement of time tracking abilities will greatly enhance the City’s ability to set fees for service and identify unfunded activities in years t o come.

Disclaimer: In preparing this report and the opinio ns and recommendations included herein, NBS has rel ied on a number of principal assumptions and considerations with regard to financial matters, co nditions and events that may occur in the future. This information and assumptions, including the Cit y’s budgets, time estimate data, and workload information from City staff, were provided by sources we believe to be reliable; however, NBS has not independently verified such information and assumptions. While we believe NBS’ use of such information and assumptio ns is reasonable for the purpose of this report, so me assumptions will invariably not materialize as stat ed herein and may vary significantly due to unantic ipated events and circumstances. Therefore, the act ual results can be expected to vary from those projecte d to the extent that actual future conditions diffe r from those assumed by us or provided to us by oth ers.
