UBJECT: Advance Item – Conduct a Public Hearing and Consider Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2022 – 2023 Master Fee Schedule

SUMMARY
On a recurring basis, staff reviews existing user and regulatory fees as a basis for recovering allowable costs of certain City services. This report presents staff’s recommended changes to the current Master Fee Schedule. If adopted, the updated fees will be effective July 8, 2022 (60 days after adoption).

RECOMMENDATION
Hold a Public Hearing and adopt the proposed User Fee Resolution and Schedule, to be effective July 8, 2022.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
U
ser and regulatory fees are established by the City Council. The City’s M aster Fee Schedule is a compilation of fees for City services provided to members of the public. The advantages of updating the City’s user and regulatory fees include assuring that fees are set based on current costs and approved cost recovery objectives , while providing transparency in the fee structure for the City’s development -related and other municipal fees. These fees cover the costs for specific City services, except those mandated by or set by another Council action or document (e.g., Water & Wastewater Utilities Rate Schedule or Parks & Recreation Activity Guide).

I
n accordance with prior City Council direction, staff targets recovery of the full cost of service for the majority of the fee- related services and activities identified in the M aster Fee Schedule. Recovering the costs of providing fee- related services increases the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all residents, such as public works and public safety services. Additionally, it helps meet the service level expectations of the community by collecting revenues to adequately fund the services provided by each department.

Each year it is the intent of staff to review and update the user fees and rates for the City of Ventura. On a bi-annual basis, a full cost of service study is undertaken, as was the case this year. In years between comprehensive fee studies, (“interim year s”), fees are primarily adjusted by the annual change in the consumer price index for the Los Angeles, Long Beach, Anaheim region ( CPI or regional CPI) . For informational purposes, as of March 2022 the CPI is 8.5%.

*Amounts rounded for illustrative purposes

Fees Proposed to Decrease and Minor Adjustments
• 82% of fees are proposed to either decrease, remain unchanged, or reflect only minor adjustments (i.e., up to 5% or $10 change).

Fees Proposed to Increase by More than Five Percent (5%) • Fee changes greater than 5% are the result of:
o A recalibration in the cost of service.
o Recent significant increases in the costs of materials and supplies included in service fees (e.g., increase in the cost of utility meters).

New Fees Proposed
• Eleven (11) new fees are proposed
• The fees will allow the City to recover the costs of services or materials that are being requested of staff and for which corresponding fees or rates are not readily portrayed in the City’s fee schedule. These proposed fees are highlighted in the following table.

Fee Restructuring
• Certain fees are proposed to be restructured to enhance the correlation between services provided and fees collected.
• Restructured fees are generally intended to offset the City’s cost of providing service (i.e., full cost recovery is targeted).

Attachment D lists fees proposed to increase by more than 5% including commentary regarding the proposed changes.

Attachment E lists fees proposed for fee structure modification. Modified fee structures are intended to enhance the correlation between services provided and fees collected to offset service costs. Fee structure modifications may result in unchanged fees, fee increases, or fee decreases depending on the service scenario.

Attachment F includes the complete User and Regulatory Fee Study including the cost of service analysis supporting all proposed fee adjustments.

Purpose of Fee Review
Recovering the costs of providing fee- related services directly influences the City’s goal of maintaining fiscal stability while continuing to provide high-quality essential services.

Additionally, annual review and adjustment of fees provides multiple benefits, including:
• Increasing the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all Ventura residents and businesses, such as public safety services.
• Keeping pace with general cost inflation.
• Avoiding fee spikes that are more likely to occur when municipalities leave fees unchanged for a multiyear period.
• Providing fee payers, city staff, and city policymakers with a pattern of consistency that provides information for forecasting and decision-making purposes. • Helping meet fee-payer service level expectations by collecting fees to fund the existing level of services provided.
• Encouraging generational equity among fee payers by avoiding long- term stagnation of fees followed by significant fee increases.

Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and are in- range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The intent of these adjustments is to reflect the gradual increase of costs due to inflationary pressures. Recalibration of these fees simply provides an offset of existing expenditures/needs rather than a source of funding for expanded service levels, thus there is no net incremental revenue expected.

ALTERNATIVES

City Council alternatives include:

• Leave fees unchanged; however, the directive of City Council to bring fees to a 100% cost recovery level will probably not be achieved and the General Fund would need to reimburse Ventura Water for any lost revenue related to charging rates that do not cover 100% of the cost of services.

• Approve any combination of partial implementations of the proposed changes.

MASTER FEE SCHEDULE
Schedule of Well and Groundwater Conservation Fees

WELL AND GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION FEES
Fees Reflected in This Schedule are Payable to the County of Ventura. The County Administers the City's Well and Groundwater Conservation Program. Fees reflected in this schedule are intended to mirror the fees adopted by the Board of Supervisors of Ventura County for these services. For Details of Fees and Paragraph References Refer to Ventura County Well Ordinance No. 4184, Ventura County Ordinance Code Section 4821, and Resolution No. 15-051.

The fee for processing a permit to construct, repair, modify or destroy a well issued pursuant to Section 4813 of the Ventura County Ordinance Code shall be as follows:

1.a Except as otherwise provided in subparagraphs (c) and (d), for permits relating to water wells, cathodic protection wells, monitoring wells and engineering test holes inspected by the County inspector, the fee shall be $750 for the initial well plus $115 for each additional well which is located on the same site and is perforated or sealed on the same day the initial well is perforated or sealed.

1.b Except as otherwise provided in subparagraphs (c) and (d), for permits relating to monitoring wells and engineering test holes inspected by the applicant's registered inspector, the fee shall be $390 for up to four wells on the same site plus $50 for each additional well which is located on the same site.

1.c Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph (d), for permits solely to increase the depth of an existing and unabandoned well for which all earlier construction, repair or modification work has been pursuant to and in compliance with permits issued under Section 4813 of the Ventura County Ordinance Code, the fee shall be $370 for the initial well plus $85 for each additional well on the same site.

1.d For permits specified in subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c), where work for which the permit is required has commenced before submittal of the permit application, the fee shall be double that otherwise specified in those subparagraphs. It is estimated that such late permit applications cost on the average, twice as much to process as the timely applications for the same permits. This double fee is imposed not as a penalty but to recover the estimated additional costs incurred in connection with such late permit applications.

1.e For annual permits relating to engineering test holes inspected by registered inspector(s), the fee shall be $635 per year per company.

1.f If a County inspector is required to be at a well site in the performance of an inspection of any completion operation, as defined in Section 4812 (d) of the Ventura County Ordinance Code, in excess of two working days, the fee shall be increased by $245 for each working day or portion thereof in excess of the initial two working days.
2 The fee for processing an application to extend a permit pursuant to Section 4813 (E) of the Ventura County Ordinance Code shall be $30. 3 No fee shall be charged for processing an application for approval of a registered inspector, as defined in Section 4812 of the Ventura County Ordinance Code; provided, however, that approval shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Director of the Ventura County Public Works Agency may deem reasonably necessary to ensure the registered inspector's competence and responsibility. 4 No fee shall be charged for processing an application for registration with the Department pursuant to Section 4813 (G) of the Ventura County Ordinance Code.
5 The fee for processing a Certificate of Exemption issued pursuant to Section 4820 of the Ventura County Ordinance Code shall be $120; provided, however, that no fee shall be charged for processing such a certificate respecting a well which is monitored annually by the Ventura County Public Works Agency or the United Water Conservation District.

(1) The seasonal nature and changing demand levels for fee related activities offered by the Parks and Recreation Department make it impractical to list all user fees imposed by the Department as part of this fee schedule. Instead, the Department publishes schedules of programs and service offerings that can be updated at the discretion of the Department Director to account for changes in fees and program offerings throughout the year.

CLEARSOURCE REPORT TO CITY OF VENTURA 2

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

STUDY OVERVIEW
The City of Ventura has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study. California cities regularly conduct these studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall portfolio of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services.

Industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that same individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues as much as possible for use toward services of broader community benefit.

USER AND REGULATORY FEES
Cities derive annual revenue from a numbe r of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, license fees, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by the City for providing fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.

California law provides guidance regarding the amounts the City may charge for fee-related services and activities. Specifically, in order to avoid being cons idered taxes, the fees charged shall not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services, activities, or materials for which fees are charged.

At its conclusion, this study proposes for City Council review and consideration at public hearing a new Schedule of User Fees and Charges for application in Fiscal Year 20 22-2023 and continued update in subsequent years.

COST RECOVERY POLICY AND PRACTICE
Recovering the costs of providing fee -related services directly influences the City’s fiscal health and increases the City’s ability to meet the service level expectations of fee payers.

The services for which the City imposes a user or regulatory fee typically derive from an individual person or entity’s action, request, or behavior. Therefore, except in cases where there is an overwhelming public benefit generated by the City’s involvement in the individual action, a fee for service ensures that the individual bears most, if not all, of the cost incurred by the City to provide that service . When a fee targets “100% or full cost recovery,” the individual is bearing the entirety of the cost. When a fee targets less than full cost recovery, another City revenue source – in most cases, the General Fund – subsidizes the individualized activity.

Generally, fees for service are targeted to full cost recovery, inclusive of operating, direct, indirect, and capital costs, except in cases where the City Council cites a public interest in lower fees. The City may also be influenced by market conditions, comparing to municipalities of similar size and service profile.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FINDINGS AND PROPOSED ACTION
The City’s Master Fee Schedule includes approximately 500 individual fees. This is common am ongst similar California municipalities because it allows for scaling of fees for the various services required. In other words, the City maintains numerous fee categories to account for the varied service needs of the community. The following provides a brief summary of primary changes the City Council is being asked to consider:

Summary of Changes to Fees Examined
Description Count Percentage *
Fees Proposed to Decrease 28 6%
Fees Proposed to Remain Unchanged or Minor Adjustments
Up to 5% or $10 Change 373 76%
Fees Proposed to Increase by More than 5% 58 12%
New Fees Proposed 11 2%
Fee Structure Modifications (May Result in Increase or Decrease) 21 4% Total Fees Examined 491 100%
* Amounts in the percentage column are rounded for illustrative purposes.

Fees Proposed to Decrease and Minor Adjustments
• Eighty-two percent (82%) of fees are proposed to either decrease, remain unchanged, or reflect only minor adjustments (i.e., up to 5% or $10 change).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Appendix B lists fees proposed to increase by more than 5% including commentary regarding the proposed changes.

Appendix C lists fees proposed for fee structure modification. Modified fee structures are intended to enhance the correlation between services provide d and fees collected to offset service costs. Fee structure modifications may result in unchanged fees, fee increases, or fee decreases depending on the service scenario.

Appendix D includes the cost of service analysis supporting all proposed fee adjustments.

Adoption of Updated User and Regulatory Fees
Similar fees are collected by communities throughout the region and the State. The proposed fee amounts do not exceed the City’s cost of service and are in -range of amounts charged by other jurisdictions.

Additional revenues expected from the Proposed Master Fee Schedule are intended to offset the cost of providing existing services associated with those fee -related regulatory functions and other programs. Additional fee revenue is not intended to fund new services.

Fairly allocating costs to the services provided and recovering some, or all, of these costs from service recipients creates value and predictability for City customers and reimburses the City for services provided to a single party, as compared to the public at large. Collecting fees for services:
 Increases the availability of General Fund revenues to be used for services and activities available to all residents and businesses, such as public safety and public works services.  Helps meet fee-payer service level expectations by collecting fees to fund the existing level of services provided.

PROJECT ORIENTATION

SCOPE OF STUDY
The City of Ventura has completed a User and Regulatory Fee Study, which represents an external review of prevailing practices and development of a new Schedule of User Fees and Charges . ClearSource Financial Consulting has prepared this analysis during Fiscal Year 2021/22 and will be available to answer questions as the City proceeds in implementing findings as it chooses.

Key tasks expected by the City from this study included the following:
 Review eligible fee-related services citywide to establish the reasonable relationship between current fees for service and the underlying costs of service.
 Calculate the full cost of service, including estimated citywide overhead costs.  Recommend fees to be charged for each service.
 Recommend cost recovery strategies and best practices in setting fees, while considering the complexities and demands of responsible programs or departments.  Identify underlying billable rates for cost recovery opportunities and as the basis for user fees.  Maintain a thoroughly documented analysis to ensure compliance with Proposition 26, and other statutes, as applicable.

DIRECT SERVICES UNDER REVIEW
Fee Categories
City fees under review in this project focused on direct services eligible for user fee methodology, as listed in the City’s published fee schedules . Additionally, the project was tasked with identifying any relevant additions for services performed without a fee or for under -quantified or ineffectively structured fees.

Current services shown in the City’s various prevailing fee schedules and addressed in this study are summarized as follows:
 Administration – Records management and billing activities  Building – Services include building permits for construction and sub-trades  Planning – Services include development review/current planning, other community permitting  Public Works – Services include engineering plan review and inspection and encroachments permits  Fire – Services include annual inspections, and development review  Police – Services include specialized response, and permit reviews  Recreation Programming and Facility Rental Fees – Services include fees for reserved use of fields, and picnic areas.

PROJECT ORIENTATION

REASON FOR STUDY
Cities derive annual revenue from a numbe r of sources. These include, but are not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes, franchise fees, fines, rents, and user and regulatory fees. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by a c ity for providing fee -related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.

California cities regularly conduct fee studies to justify fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall body of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services. Widespread industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led most cities to link cost recovery for services of individual action, cause, or benefit to that individual through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues for services of broader community benefit.

PREVAILING GUIDANCE
The objectives of this study, the methodolo gy used to complete the study, and the formulation of outcomes and recommendations for future consideration were significantly influenced by Article 13C of the California Constitution and Section 66014 of the California Government Code.

Article 13C states that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that th e manner in which those costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. Additionally, Article 13C identifies the following as items that are not defined as taxes:
 A charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege.  A charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product.
 A charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof.  A charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property.
 A fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law.
 A charge imposed as a condition of property development.  Assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII D.

PROJECT ORIENTATION
Section 66014(a) of the California Government Code includes the following, “Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when a local agency charges fees for zoning variances; zoning changes; use permits; building inspections; building permits; …the processing of maps under the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act…; or planning services…; those fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for whic h the fee is charged, unless a question regarding the amount of the fee charged in excess of the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services or materials is submitted to, and approved by, a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors voting on the issue.

The outcomes and recommendations of the study are intended to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws including providing confirmation that the proposed fees (“charges”) recommended as a result of this study are not taxes as defined i n Article 13C of the California Constitution and that the proposed fees are no more than necessary to the cover the reasonable costs of the City’s activities and services addressed in the fees. Additionally, this report is intended to show that the manner in which the costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from the activities and services provided by the City.

METHODOLOGY AND DATA SOURCES
This study calculated the estimated rea sonable cost of providing various fee -related services across the City organization. Generally, the estimated reasonable cost of providing the fee -related services and activities examined in this study can be calculated as the product of the composite fully-burdened hourly labor rate of the division responsible for providing services and the estimated labor time required to process a typical request for service.

The composite fully -burdened hourly rates calculated in this study are based on the estimated a nnual hours spent providing fee related services, and estimated labor, services and supplies, and citywide overhead expenditures, sourced as follows:
 Estimated annual hours spent providing fee related services were developed based on interviews with City staff and are in-line with typical direct service ratios experienced by the consultant via studies of similar municipalities throughout California.
 Labor expenditures for in-house personnel were based on budgeted salary and benefits expenditures.  Contract service personnel related costs were based on current market rates for similar service in the southern California region.
 Citywide overhead cost allocations were developed to assign a reasonable share of central service support to the City’s direct service units.
 Estimated labor times were developed based on responses from the staff primarily responsible for the provision of services examined in the study. Commonly used industry data also aided in the development of time estimates and proposed fee structures.

Once cost of service levels are identified, the City may use this information to inform tar geted cost recovery from fees. Fees set at the cost of servi ce target full cost recovery. Fees set at any amount less than the cost of service target less than full cost recovery.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION
If the City decides to adopt or otherwise utilize outcomes generated through this study, it should:
 Update Systems for Fee Outcomes – Ensure that City staff begin using updated fees and associated outcomes once the updated schedule of fees becomes effective. Values should be included in all official fee schedules used throughout the City (e.g., departmental pamphlets, counter schedules, and online information). Additionally, ensure collections processes are updated, which may include coding in billing systems and training for personnel who handle fees directly with the public.  Actively Monitor the Use of Fees – In order to recover accurate and eligible amounts expected, the City should be diligent about tracking time to projects and ensuring fees are applied in the correct amount and using the correct and intended basis.
 Monitor Feedback and Permit Statistics – Monitor permit and application volume and applicant feedback to determine if fee modifications are resulting in any unanticipated changes in project frequency and to increase the level of detail available for revenue forecasting.  Annually Review and Adjust Fee Values – In order to generally maintain pace with regional cost inflation and/or the City’s salary cost inflation, the City should adjust its fees on an annual basis . A commonly used, reasonable inflation index is the annual change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index (CPI) representative of the region.
 Periodically Perform Comprehensive Analysis – A comprehensive fee study should be conducted periodically (e.g., every three to five years) to ensure fee levels remain at or below legal limits and are consistent with evolving service practices and local conditions.
