Agenda packet — West Sacramento City Council, October 1, 2025 (part 2 of 2)

Strategic Plan Integration
Not applicable.

Alternatives
The Council’s primary alternatives are summarized below:

1. Direct staff to return at a future date with additional information and/or a modified Ordinance.

2. Decline to move this item, and direct staff to discontinue work on the proposed Municipal Code modification.

Staff does not recommend Alternative 1 because it would create confusion with permit applicants with the incorrect appendices and delay permit applications. Staff also does not recommend Alternative 2 because if no action is taken, the 2025 California Building Standards Code will not be granted acceptance by the California Building Standards Commission, thus the adopted ordinances will not become effective.

Coordination and Review
The Fire Department and Community Development Department (Building and Code Enforcement Divisions) have worked together preparing the amendments. The City Attorney's office has reviewed and commented on the amended ordinance.

Budget/Cost Impact
The impact of using the codes should remain minimal. The overall fiscal impact to the City because of adoption of the new codes is approximately $5,000 to cover the cost of new published code materials. This cost will be absorbed into the adopted budget; no additional appropriation is necessary.

Section 4. Findings. The City Council of the City of West Sacramento finds and declares that the additions, modifications, and changes made to these codes are either expressly left to the authority having jurisdiction or necessary for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare due to climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. These amendments are authorized under Health & Safety Code Section 17958 and are identified as follows:

California Building Code Title 24, Part 2, Volumes 1 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 101.1 amendment is necessary for administrative clarification, and does not modify a Building Standard pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Sections 17958, 17958.5, and 17958.7. These amendments establish administrative standards for the effective enforcement of building standards throughout the City of West Sacramento.

1. Climatic
California Fire Code Sections 503.2.3, 503.2.4, 503.2.7, 503.2.8, 901.6.4, 903.2.22, 903.2.22.1, 5003.1.5, 5614, 5615, 5704.2.9.6.1, 5806.2, 6104.2, and Appendix D.

Average yearly rainfall for the city is approximately 18 inches. This rainfall normally occurs from October to April. Low-level fog (tulle-fog) is present throughout the winter months reducing roadway visibility. This reduced visibility increases emergency response times. The city is surrounded by levees and multiple water sources. During large storm events the capacity of the city’s underground storm water drainage system is exceeded in some areas.

The resulting localized flooding and road closures increase emergency response times.

During the summer months, there is generally no measurable precipitation. Temperatures for this dry period range from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit and are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds. The relative humidity during summer months ranges from 2-30 millimeters Hg, which is considered arid. The arid condition dries vegetation to a point at which it is exceedingly combustible and easily ignited.

Sections 503.2.3, 503.2.4, 503.2.7, 503.2.8, and Appendix D determine road characteristics that ensure emergency response vehicles have access in all weather conditions. These 183
Ordinance 25-10

Page 9 ends

features are critical when large storm events produce localized flooding or otherwise impact road conditions.

Buildings located in portions of the city where combustible vegetation is present, are at an increased risk of fire. The need for reduced fire area due to climatic conditions within Yolo County warrants a lower sprinkler threshold. Sections 901.6.4, 903.2.22, and 903.2.22.1 are amended to address these specific issues by requiring sprinkler and associated systems in buildings that are greater than 4,000 sq. ft. in total floor area. A lower threshold for sprinklers and associated systems will provide more buildings with protection reducing property loss and personal injury.

Section 5003.1.5 has been amended to require vehicles containing hazardous materials in amounts that require placarding to not be left unattended in certain zoned areas. Summertime temperatures from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds leading to potentially dangerous fire conditions. The limited amount of hazardous materials stored in residentially zoned areas reduces risk.

Sections 5614 and 5615 limit the storage and transportation of explosives within the city.

Summertime temperatures from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds leading to potentially dangerous fire conditions. The limited amount of explosive material stored within the city reduces risk.

Section 5704.2.9.6.1 limits the storage of flammable and combustible liquids in residentially zoned areas. Summertime temperatures from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds leading to potentially dangerous fire conditions.

The limited amount of flammable and combustible liquids stored in residentially zoned areas reduces risk.

Section 5806.2 limits the storage of flammable cryogenic fluids in stationary containers outside of buildings in certain zoned areas. Summertime temperatures from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds leading to potentially dangerous fire conditions. The limited amount of flammable cryogenic liquids stored in residentially zoned areas reduces risk.

Section 6104.2 limits the maximum size of liquefied petroleum gas containers to 500 gallons in certain zoned areas. Summertime temperatures from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit are frequently accompanied by light to gusty south winds leading to potentially dangerous fire conditions. The limited amount of liquefied petroleum gas stored in residentially zoned areas reduces risk.

2. Topographical
California Fire Code Sections 505.1.1, 505.1.2, C102.2, and C104.1.

Topographical features within and surrounding the city increase emergency response time.

These features include open space, agriculture, bridges, drainage canals, freeways, railroad tracks, and large industrial facilities. Other topographical features include the Sacramento River, the Yolo Flood By-Pass, and the Deep Water Ship Channel. These features require traffic to be either routed around or delayed depending on the topographical feature. Traffic delays caused by railway crossings can be several minutes in length increasing emergency response times. Heavy traffic congestion on city streets acts as a barrier to timely response for fire and emergency vehicles.

Sections 505.1.1 and 505.1.2 have been amended to address the location and visibility of addressing on new and existing buildings. Visible addressing reduces emergency response times for fire and rescue personnel. The ability to quickly locate the proper address is critical when topographical features such as agriculture, bridges, drainage canals, freeways, railroad tracks, and large industrial facilities may delay emergency response personnel. 184
Ordinance 25-10

Page 10 ends

Sections C102.2 and C104.1 have been amended to ensure an adequate water supply is available when topographical features such as agriculture, bridges, drainage canals, freeways, railroad tracks, and large industrial facilities may delay emergency response personnel.

Section 5. Filing of Ordinance. The City Clerk is hereby directed to file a copy of this Ordinance with the California Building Standards Commission.

Section 6. Severability. If any provision of this chapter, or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held invalid, the remainder of this chapter, to the extent it can be given effect, or the application of those provisions to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, shall not be affected thereby, and to this end the provisions of this chapter are severable.

Section 6. Effective Date and Publication. This ordinance shall take effect 30 days after its adoption, and pursuant to Resolution 99-46 was published in summary format prior to adoption, and a summary will be published within 15 days after adoption in a paper of general circulation published and circulated within the City of West Sacramento.

SUBJECT:

PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING AN APPEAL OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION’S VARIANCE DENIAL REGARDING A SETBACK VARIANCE FOR AN RV COVER AT 1512

MICHIGAN BLVD
INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:

Justin Hardy, Senior Planner
Community Development Department
[ ] Commission [ ] Staff
[ X ] Other
ATTACHMENT [ X ] Yes [ ] No [ ] Information [ ] Direction [ X ] Action

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this item is to facilitate the City Council’s consideration of an Appeal of the Planning Commission’s denial of a Variance request to reduce front and side yard setbacks and exceed the height limit for an RV cover at 1512 Michigan Boulevard.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council:

1. Conduct the public hearing; and

2. Certify that the City Council has reviewed and considered the Statutory Exemption (projects which are disapproved, CEQA Guidelines Section 15270) and approve the Statutory Exemption; and

3. Adopt Resolution 25-103, denying the requested Appeal and confirming the Planning Commission’s decision to deny the requested Variance based on the inability to meet the required variance findings.

BACKGROUND
A large, unpermitted accessory structure (RV cover) was constructed at 1512 Michigan Blvd (residentially zoned) without building permits and in violation of the City’s Zoning Code’s setback requirements (Attachment 1, Project Aerial).

Prior to construction, City staff informed the property owner of the need for building permits and conformance with City standards in order to construct a proposed RV cover. The property owner chose to initiate construction of the RV cover without any approvals from the City. On January 28, 2025, Code Enforcement received a complaint about a partially-constructed, unpermitted structure at 1512 Michigan Avenue (Attachment 2, Photo of Constructed Structure). After visiting the site, Code Enforcement issued a Stop Work Order on January 29, 2025 (Attachment 3, Stop Work Order). The owner continued with construction of the RV cover after receiving notice from City staff.

Over the course of several months, City staff made multiple efforts to communicate to the property owner the requirement to adhere to City standards, including obtaining necessary building permits. The purpose of these efforts was to bring the property into compliance with local codes. After no progress on compliance was made, a Notice to Abate was issued on February 14, 2025, setting a deadline of March 18 for removal of the nonconforming structure. The applicant made no progress with addressing the Notice to Abate and requested a time extension until April 14, which was approved by Code Enforcement. As that date passed with no correctable action taken to address the violations, an Administrative Citation was issued on May 23, 2025.

Subsequently, the owner submitted a Variance application on May 28 (see Attachment 4, Project Plans) to:
 Reduce setback requirements to zero.
 Exceed the height limit in the front setback.

On August 21, 2025, the Planning Commission held a public hearing (Attachment 5, Planning Commission Report) to consider the requested Variance. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Commission unanimously voted to deny the Variance. This decision was grounded in the absence of evidence necessary to satisfy the Findings required for approval of a Variance.

APPEAL
204
Reyes Variance
October 1, 2025

Page 2 ends

The City received an appeal of the Planning Commission’s decision on August 28th from the applicant (Attachment 6, Reyes Appeal). The applicant’s Appeal includes fourteen photographs of accessory structures through the city that may potentially be in violation of local regulations, but fails to provide addresses for any of them. In response, staff requested the corresponding location via email to the applicant on August 29th, and again on September 11th and a phone call (to date, staff has not received a response). However, conditions at other locations do not alter or justify the legal requirement with respect to the required findings for a Variance.

The Appeal asserts that there has been "inconsistent enforcement." However, enforcement of City codes is “complaint-based” meaning that Code Enforcement officers respond to complaints received by the City. Each case is assessed and investigated on its individual merits. The Municipal Code provides a clear, consistent process that applies universally. Structures constructed without permits bypass the formal review process, which would otherwise identify nonconformities and ordinance violations. Code Enforcement staff enforces City regulations impartially. The applicant was informed of City requirements multiple times before construction of the RV cover commenced, and all information provided to the property owner was consistent with what is typically provided by City staff to members of the public. Staff has received two phone calls in opposition of the RV cover.

ANALYSIS
The subject property at 1512 Michigan Boulevard is a corner lot with frontage on Portsmouth Avenue. The Portsmouth frontage is considered the front yard pursuant to the definition of a front yard in the Zoning Code.

The property owner has constructed an RV cover without permits that does not comply with the 15-foot front yard setback nor the required 5-foot side yard setback (along northern property line). The structure is 15 feet tall, exceeding the 12 foot maximum height for accessory structures; the size of the RV cover is 47 feet by 15 feet, totaling 705 square feet.

The basis for approving a variance are set forth in State law (Government Code Sec. 65906) and the City’s Zoning Code (Section 17.22.020). A variance allows a property owner to deviate from the specific development standards found in the Zoning Code (lot size or area, setbacks, height, bulk standards, etc.). There are strict tests for variances, and all must be satisfied or the variance must be denied. These tests revolve around three principles:
 Unusual hardship and special circumstances (size, topography, location) where applying the zoning ordinance strictly would deprive the property of privileges enjoyed by other nearby properties in the same zone.
 Grant of special privilege. The variance must not constitute a special privilege inconsistent with limitations on other properties in the same zone and vicinity.
 Public health, safety and welfare.

Variances are typically an option of last resort, since the approval of a variance requires a high level of rigor to support. As stated below in each variance finding, staff does not believe any of the required findings meet the legal requirement to grant a variance.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS
After conducting a public hearing, the City Council must make all of the following findings in order to approve or conditionally approve a variance application as required by Section 17.41.060 of the Zoning Code which is derived from Government Code Section 65906. Under state law and the City’s Zoning Code, an application for a variance must be denied if any of the findings cannot be made. The findings and staff’s analysis are included below.

Finding A. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved that do not apply generally to property in the vicinity and identical zone, and that the granting of a Variance will not constitute a granting of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on the property in the vicinity and identical zone.

Analysis: California courts have stated clearly that a variance must be “grounded in conditions peculiar to the particular lot as distinguished from other property”. (Zakessian v. City of Sausalito (1972) 28 Cal.App.3d 794, 799–800, 105 Cal.Rptr. 105 (Zakessian) Unnecessary hardship therefore occurs where the natural condition or topography of the land places the landowner at a disadvantage compared to other landowners in the area, such as peculiarities of the size, shape or grade of the parcel that would deprive the property owner from building on the lot under code requirements. There are no exceptional or extraordinary characteristics on this Property, such as topography, that would support a finding in support of a variance. The Property is a standard corner lot established via a final subdivision map (Westfield Village Unit 4). Lots in this neighborhood are similar in size and configuration and there are other comparable corner lots where the same development standards apply. 205 Reyes Variance
October 1, 2025

Given that other properties are subject to the same development standards, a variance in this case would be a special privilege since neighboring properties have all been developed in accordance with the Zoning Code. In consideration of this request, staff concludes that there are no unusual characteristics or special circumstances that necessitate granting a variance. Granting this variance would constitute a grant of special privilege. Finding A cannot be met by this request.

Finding B. The granting of the application is necessary to prevent a physical hardship which is not of the applicant’s own actions or the actions of a predecessor in interest.

Analysis: As stated previously, the subject property was created as part of a large subdivision, albeit many decades ago, prior to incorporation of the City. At approximately 0.18 acre in area, it is larger than most lots in the same tract. It is also wider than most lots, suggesting that it would be developable in a conforming manner if other smaller lots can be developed without needing a variance or other exception. This property is a standard corner lot in terms of size, meaning it faces two streets. This property is a standard corner lot, which means it fronts two streets. Accordingly, a 15-foot setback is required along both Portsmouth Ave. (front yard) and Michigan Ave. (street side). Throughout the city, corner lots are larger than adjacent interior lots to accommodate both the front and street-side setback requirements. This is not unique to this property as this is a citywide Zoning Code standard. No physical hardship is present that was not the direct result of the property owner choosing to construct the accessory structure in conflict with the City Code and without obtaining a building permit. Finding B cannot be met by this request.

Finding C. The granting of the application will not be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general welfare or convenience.

Analysis: The project is not consistent with the Zoning Code setback and height requirements. These standards are required to address space for landscaping, neighborhood uniformity, front yard aesthetics, dry utilities, intersection visibility etc. Staff received a public comment letter, and at the August 21 Planning Commission hearing, additional concerns were raised regarding safety. Specifically, the RV cover obstructs visibility for vehicles exiting the driveway to the north. Thus, granting the variance will constitute a materially detrimental impact, and would set a precedent of zero-foot setbacks in the front yard. Finding C cannot be met by this request.

Finding D. The granting of the Variance will be consistent with the general purposes and objectives of this Title, any applicable specific plans, and the General Plan.

Analysis: The stated purpose of the Zoning Code is to “[p]reserve, protect, and enhance the character of the City's different residential neighborhoods.” (City of West Sacramento Municipal Code § 17.08.010(B).) Granting the variance request would change the Property’s character with respect to the single-family streetscape. The Zoning Code established minimum standards to achieve quality development. The Variance is inconsistent with the intent and purpose of the Zoning district, as the RV cover extends into the front yard setback, so it is not in compliance with setback provisions. Moreover, the proposed Variance conflicts with key General Plan policies by undermining principles related to Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), neighborhood character and massing, and pedestrian-scale development. Specifically, the accessory structure compromises established guidance on building orientation, scale, design transitions, and public frontage that support cohesive neighborhood form and safety.
 Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED): The proposed Variance undermines design strategies that enhance natural surveillance, access control, territorial reinforcement, and maintenance of all essential CPTED objectives that help prevent crime through thoughtful environmental design.  Neighborhood Character, Massing, Setbacks & Design: The proposed Variance alters setback and scale norms, resulting in overly bulky or out-of-scale development that disrupts the existing rhythm and visual harmony of the neighborhood.
 Pedestrian Scaled Development & Walkability: The proposed Variance conflicts with principles encouraging compact, pedestrian-oriented streetscape development supporting human scale through moderate massing, active frontages, and transitions facilitating walkability.

Finding D cannot be met by this request.

Residential Recreational Vehicle (“RV”) Parking
206
Reyes Variance
October 1, 2025

Page 4 ends

The parking of RV/trailers on residential property is subject to Section 17.22.110 of the Zoning Ordinance. RVs can be stored in the front setback on residential lots created on or before August 23, 1984, if the following requirements are met:
1) The RV must be parked at least 5 feet from the back of sidewalk, street right-of-way, or property line, whichever is greater.
2) No more than 350 square feet of paved or improved surfaces shall be used for the parking or storage of an RV.
3) The RV must be stored on a paved surface when located in the front yard.

A soft cover may be used to cover the RV.

Environmental Considerations
Staff recommends that the City Council deny the appeal and thereby affirm the Planning Commission’s decision.

Accordingly, no environmental document has been prepared for the project at this time. Staff has determined Section 15270 of the State CEQA Guidelines is the appropriate level of review, which exempts projects that are disapproved.

Strategic Plan Integration
No strategic plan policy is identifiable for the requested Variance.

Budget/Cost Impact
Neither approval nor denial of this project would substantially impact the City's finances. Staff costs for processing this request are covered by a reimbursement agreement authorized by the Applicant. It should be noted that the cost for Code Enforcement staff time is not recoverable, representing an un-reimbursable cost.

Alternatives
The City Council’s primary alternatives to the recommended action are summarized below. 1) Find that the City Council can make the Variance findings (provide staff with specific findings) and direct staff to return to City Council at a later date with Findings to overturn the Planning Commission’s decision. 2) Find that Section 15303 (e), of the Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 is the appropriate level of environmental review for accessory structures (carports). 3) While staff believes the analysis presented in this report is correct and complete, staff is prepared to effectuate the alternatives (1 and 2) at the Council’s direction.

Coordination and Review
The Appeal was reviewed by the Community Development Department and other relevant departments.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2025 ITEM # 5
SUBJECT:

PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING A SETBACK VARIANCE FOR AN RV COVER AT 1512 MICHIGAN BLVD.

INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:

Justin Hardy, Senior Planner
Community Development Department
[ ] Commission [ ] Staff
[ X ] Other
ATTACHMENT [ X ] Yes [ ] No [ ] Information [ ] Direction [ X ] Action

OBJECTIVE
The objective of this item is to request the Commission’s consideration of a variance request to reduce setbacks for a RV cover from the required front yard setback of 15 feet and the side yard from 5 feet to zero.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the Commission:

1. Conduct the public hearing; and

2. Certify that the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the Statutory Exemption (projects which are disapproved, CEQA Guidelines Section 15270) and approves the Statutory Exemption as presented by staff; and

3. Deny the requested variance based on the lack of conformance with the required variance findings as discussed in this report.

BACKGROUND
A large accessory structure, measuring approximately 47 feet in length x 15 feet in width x 15’-11” in height, was constructed without the benefit of permits at 1512 Michigan Avenue (See Attachment 1, Aerial Map, and Attachment 2, Site Photo). The structure is being used to store a large recreational vehicle. The property owner received a permit in August 2024 to widen the existing driveway along the Portsmouth frontage. During that process, a contractor hired by the property owner informed the City of the property owner’s intent to construct a large accessory structure on the widened driveway. At that point, staff provided setback information to the property owner.

Based on public complaints received in January 2025, a Code Enforcement Officer investigated the property on January 28, 2025 and found that vertical metal beams were installed without approvals and permits. The property owner confirmed that the in-progress construction was not permitted. The Code Enforcement Officer advised the property owner to seek approvals for the structure, which was in violation of zoning and building codes.

The following day, the property owner met with staff from the Code Enforcement, Building, and Planning Divisions of Community Development. At that time, staff again confirmed that the structure would require compliance with the Building Code and all requirements of the Zoning code, including maintaining required setbacks. Any deviation from the zoning requirements would require approval of a Variance from the Planning Commission.

Furthermore, staff communicated that the required findings for a Variance would be difficult to assert in the affirmative. At that time, the property owner responded that construction would continue in violation of the regulations and Building code.

After a follow-up inspection, the Code Enforcement Officer noticed additional construction; the roof of the structure had been framed, and an RV was parked underneath the incomplete structure. At that point, the Building Division issued a “Stop Work Order” and placed a placard on the structure.

On February 14, 2025, the Code Enforcement Division issued a Notice to Abate, giving the property owner until March 18, 2025 to remove the structure. After the property owner reached out to Code Enforcement and indicated that he would be removing the structure, but required an extension of time due to a pre-planned trip for three weeks, the deadline was extended - with the property owner’s concurrence – until March 31, 2025. 191
Attachment 5
218
Reyes Variance
August 21, 2025
2 A follow up inspection on April 2, 2025 found that the structure was completed and not removed. After communicating several times with the property owner, additional deadline extensions were provided – until April 14, 2025. At that time, the structure remained; therefore, the property owner was issued an Administrative Citation for failing to remove the illegal, unpermitted structure. At that point, fines may be levied on the property owner until compliance is successfully achieved.

Near the end of May 2025, the property owner submitted a Variance application, seeking relaxation of the setback requirements, allowing the structure to be placed in its location. In addition, the Variance would allow an accessory structure in the front yard and allow said structure to exceed the maximum building height of 12 feet.

ANALYSIS
The subject property at 1512 Michigan Blvd. is a corner lot with frontage on Portsmouth Avenue. The Portsmouth frontage is considered the front yard pursuant to the definition of a front yard in the Zoning Code. This means that the Michigan side is a street side yard and thus there is a 15-foot building setback. The property owner has constructed an RV cover without permits that does not comply with the 15-foot setback front yard setback nor the required 5-foot side yard setback. The structure size is 47 feet by 15 feet, and 15 feet high (See Attachment 3 Email From Applicant.)
The bases for approving a variance are set forth in state law (Government Code Sec. 65906) and the City’s Zoning Code. A Variance allows a property owner to deviate from the specific development standards found in the Zoning Code (lot size or area, setbacks, height, bulk standards, etc.). There are strict tests for Variances, and all must be satisfied or the Variance cannot be approved. These tests revolve around three principlesunusual hardship, grant of special privilege/denial of privileges enjoyed by others, and public health, safety and welfare. Variances are typically an option of last resort, since the approval of a Variance requires a high level of rigor to support. The findings and detailed analysis are included as Attachment 9. For the reasons stated in Attachment 9, staff does not believe any of the required findings to grant a variance can be made.

Environmental Considerations
As noted above, staff is recommending denial of the proposed variance so no environmental document has been prepared for the project at this time. Staff has employed Section 15270 of the State CEQA Guidelines which exempts projects that are disapproved. This is a statutory exemption and is therefore absolute. If the Planning Commission desires to approve the project, the exemption would not be appropriate, and further environmental review may be required.

Strategic Plan Integration
No strategic plan policy is identifiable for this project.

Budget/Cost Impact
Neither approval nor denial of this project would substantially impact the City's finances. Staff costs for processing this request are covered by a reimbursement agreement. It should be noted that the cost for code enforcement staff time are not recoverable, representing an unreimbursable cost.

Recommendations
1) Conduct the public hearing and approve staff recommendations as outlined in “Recommend Actions” at the beginning of this report
2) Find that the one or more of the required findings for approval of the Variance cannot be made as recommended and deny the Variance.
3) Find that Section 15270, of the Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 is not the appropriate level of environmental review and direct staff to perform additional environmental analysis (specify impacts to be addressed) prior to Commission consideration of the request.

Alternatives
The Planning Commission’s primary alternatives to the recommended action are summarized below. 192 219
Reyes Variance
August 21, 2025
3 1) Find that the Planning Commission can make the Variance findings (provide staff the direction and specific findings) and bring the project back with revised findings at a date certain. Environmental review under CEQA would be required before the Planning Commission could give approval to the Variance. 2) Continue the item to a future date and request that additional information (specified by the Commission) be provided at that time.
3) While staff believes the analysis presented in this report is correct and complete, staff is prepared to effectuate the alternatives at the Commission’s direction.

Coordination and Review
The Variance application was reviewed by the Community Development Department and Code Enforcement.

Council Member Quirina Orozco,
My name is Mark Reyes, I’m currently a resident of District 2, located at the corner of 1512 Michigan Blvd and Portsmouth Ave.

I’ve recently expanded an existing driveway on the Portsmouth side. (See attached IMG1769)
Candido Ramirez an Engineer employed with the City of West Sacramento, assisted with guidelines governing the rules of the expansion. (E-mail correspondence dated 8/29/24)
The expanded driveway was to enable parking of a motorhome. (See attached IMG1776/75)
Upon completion, I contacted Pacific Building Inc. to construct the “shade structure” which would cover the area that the motorhome is parked.

They requested a Building Permit to proceed. (See attached QTE) I went to City Hall to arrange an initial visit with the City of West Sacramento’s Building Department, to sit down and explain the request.

Plans were introduced and the layout was discussed.

The project was denied, stating that it was infringing on an area within the 15’ “setback rule”.

Email From Applicant Attachment 3
196 223
It was explained that a “accessory structure” cannot be built within 15’ of the sidewalk / property line.

I found this very difficult to except given the fact that there are many “accessory structures”, that I pointed out with visual documentation, that have been built in the local area and are clearly next to the property line.

I feel that the decision to deny a permit was unfair and needs further consideration.

Can you help??
Sincerely,
Mark Reyes

Findings and Analysis
REQUIRED FINDINGS FOR A VARIANCE PURSUANT TO ZONING CODE SECTON 17.41.060 AND GOVRNMENT CODE 65906

FINDINGS
After conducting a public hearing, the Planning Commission must make all of the following findings in order to approve or conditionally approve a variance application as required by Section 17.41.060 of the Zoning Code which is derived from Government Code Section 65906. The Commission shall deny an application for a variance if it does not make any of the required findings, in which case it shall state the reasons for that determination. All required findings must be supported and affirmed or the variance, by law, must be denied. The findings and staff’s analysis are included below.

A. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved that do not apply generally to property in the vicinity and identical zone, and that the granting of a Variance will not constitute a granting of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on the property in the vicinity and identical zone.

Analysis: California courts have stated clearly that a variance must be “grounded in conditions peculiar to the particular lot as distinguished from other property”. (Zakessian v. City of Sausalito (1972) 28 Cal.App.3d 794, 799–800, 105 Cal.Rptr. 105 (Zakessian ).) Unnecessary hardship therefore occurs where the natural condition or topography of the land places the landowner at a disadvantage vis-à-vis other landowners in the area, such as peculiarities of the size, shape or grade of the parcel.1 There are no exceptional or extraordinary characteristics on this Property, such as topography, that would support a finding in support of variance. The Property is a standard corner lot established via a final subdivision map (Westfield Village Unit 4). Lots in this neighborhood are similar in size and configuration and there are other comparable corner lots where the same development standards apply. Given that other properties are subject to the same development standards, a variance in this case would be a special privilege since neighboring properties have all been developed in accordance with the Zoning Code.

In consideration of this request, staff concludes that there are no unusual characteristics or special circumstances that necessitate granting a variance. Granting this variance would constitute a grant of special privilege.

Finding A cannot be met by this request.

B. The granting of the application is necessary to prevent a physical hardship which is not of the applicant’s own actions or the actions of a predecessor in interest.

Analysis: As stated previously, the subject property was created as part of a large subdivision, albeit many decades ago, prior to incorporation. At ~0.18 acre in area, it is larger than most lots in the same tract. It is also wider than most lots, suggesting that it would be developable in a conforming manner if other smaller lots can be developed without needing a variance or other exception. 1 Committee to Save the Hollywoodland Specific Plan v. City of Los Angeles (Committee) (2008) 161 Cal.App.4th 1168, 1183 [74 Cal.Rptr.3d 665, 677], as modified (Apr. 2, 2008).) 210 237
Attachment 9
This property is a standard corner lot in terms of size, meaning it faces two streets. Because of that designation, a 15-foot setback is required on the street-facing side for any structure. Consequently, the required street-side edge forms part of that extra space, making the lot appear larger. This is not unique to this property as this is a citywide Zoning Code standard. The property is large and can accommodate an accessory structure that meets the City Code requirements on the eastern side of the property. No physical hardship is present that was not the direct result of the property owner choosing to construct the accessory structure in conflict with the City Code.

Finding B cannot be met by this request.

C. The granting of the application will not be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general welfare or convenience.

Analysis: The project is not consistent with the accessory (RV Cover) structures setback requirements.

These standards are required to address space for landscaping, neighborhood uniformity, front yard aesthetics, dry utilities, etc. This Code section has been consistently applied over the years and granting the variance would in theory be detrimental as other residents inquired about shed setbacks were provided with the same requirements. These residents complied and did not move forward violating the setbacks.

While granting the variance may not constitute a materially detrimental impact, it would set a precedence of zero setbacks in the front yard, in contrast to what has historically been required. The now constructed structure is incongruent with the character of the neighborhood. Notably, Code Enforcement has opened a case on this property based on a received complaint. The case has been ongoing since January 2025.

Finding C cannot be met by this request.

D. The granting of the Variance will be consistent with the general purposes and objectives of this Title, any applicable specific plans, and the General Plan.

Moreover, the proposed Variance conflicts with key General Plan policies by undermining principles related to Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), neighborhood character and massing, and pedestrian-scale development. Specifically, the Variance compromises established guidance on building orientation, scale, design transitions, and public frontage that support cohesive neighborhood form and safety.
211 238
Attachment 9
 Community Policing Through Environmental Design (CPTED): The Variance undermines design strategies that enhance natural surveillance, access control, territorial reinforcement, and maintenance of all essential CPTED objectives that help prevent crime through thoughtful environmental design.
 Neighborhood Character, Massing, Setbacks & Design: The proposed Variance alters setback and scale norms, resulting in overly bulky or out-of-scale development that disrupts the existing rhythm and visual harmony of the neighborhood.
 Pedestrian Scaled Development & Walkability: The Variance conflicts with principles encouraging compact, pedestrian-oriented streetscape development supporting human scale through moderate massing, active frontages, and transitions facilitating walkability.  Careful Review of Building Scale, Mass & Placement: General Plan guidance emphasizes the importance of appropriate building scale and placement so as not to create abrupt transitions between different building types or surrounding context.  Public Frontage & Orientation Toward the Street: Policies favor building orientation that fronts the public realm aligning facades with the setback line and establishing a sense of neighborhood scale, facilitating engagement between private development and the street.

See also the following relevant policies outlined in General Plan 2035:

Promoting Community Safety Through Environmental Design. Natural Surveillance is achieved through design and maintenance of the physical environment that allows people engaged in their normal activity to easily observe the space around them, as well as eliminate hiding places for undesirable activity.

Territoriality is the delineation of public, private and semi-private areas for people to understand and participate in an area’s intended use and often expresses pride and Each policy and program in General Plan 2035 that promotes one or more of the core principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design is indicated with the following icon: ownership through physical attributes such as art, signage, landscaping, pavement treatments, and other physical expressions.

UD-1.7 Complete Neighborhoods: The City shall promote the design of complete and well-structured neighborhoods that respect and respond to the physical characteristics, buildings, streetscapes, open spaces, and urban forms that contribute to their overall character and livability.

UD-1.9 Street Patterns: The City shall protect well-defined existing street patterns and require new development and redevelopment projects to create walkable, pedestrian-scaled blocks, publicly accessible mid-block and alley pedestrian routes where appropriate, and appropriately scaled sidewalks.

UD-5.4 Changes in Scale: The City shall ensure that the siting and height of buildings do not result in abrupt changes in building scale. The City shall require that the scale and massing of new development in higherdensity centers and corridors provide appropriate transitions in building height and bulk that are sensitive to the physical and visual character of adjoining neighborhoods that have lower development intensities and building heights.

UD-5.5 Attractive Building and Site Design: The City shall emphasize attractive building and site design during the development review process by giving careful attention to building scale, mass and placement, orientation, architecture, materials, landscaping, screening of equipment and loading areas, and design considerations.
212 239
Attachment 9
UD-5.8 Building Orientation: The City shall encourage street- or open space-oriented building design that engages pedestrians through features such as building siting, build-to and setback lines, façade articulation, ground floor transparency, and location of parking. Commercial and mixed-use buildings should orient toward the public front of properties and residential buildings should include entries and stoops fronting the street.
 Pedestrian Scaled Development & Walkability: The variance conflicts with principles encouraging compact, pedestrian-oriented streetscapes development should support human scale through moderate massing, active frontages, and transitions that facilitate walkability.  Careful Review of Building Scale, Mass & Placement: General Plan guidance emphasizes the importance of appropriate building scale and placement so as not to create abrupt transitions between different building types or surrounding context.  Public Frontage & Orientation Toward the Street: Policies favor building orientation that fronts the public realm aligning facades with the setback line and establishing a sense of neighborhood scale, facilitating engagement between private development and the street generalplan.sfplanning.orgsfgov.org.

Finding D cannot be met by this request.

In summary, the Variance request does not support any of the findings required in order for the Planning Commission to grant the request. Accordingly, the request should be denied. 213 240

PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION 25-99

AMENDING THE BOOK OF FEES FOR THE PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT

AND ADOPTION OF THE COST RECOVERY POLICY FOR PARKS AND RECREATION FEES

OBJECTIVE
The objective of this report is to hold a public hearing and to request City Council approval of Resolution 25-99 to amend the Parks and Recreation Book of Fees and to adopt the Cost Recovery Policy for Parks and Recreation Fees.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council:

1. Conduct a public hearing regarding the proposed revisions to the Book of Fees;

2. Adopt Resolution 25-99 (Attachment 1) amending the Book of Fees for the Parks & Recreation Department;

3. Adopt Cost Recovery Policy (Attachment 2) for the Parks and Recreation Fees; and

4. Authorize the City Manager to amend the Cost Recovery Policy, as needed.

BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department has maintained a Book of Fees to support the recovery of costs associated with delivering programs and services. This cost recovery framework has been essential to ensure the Department remain financially stable while continuing to provide a broad range of recreational and leisure opportunities to the community. However, the City of West Sacramento last conducted a comprehensive review of its fees over 10 years ago. Furthermore, the Department’s current cost recovery methodology considers only direct costs such as part-time labor, supplies, and equipment when determining fees. It does not account for indirect costs including administrative overhead, full-time staff salaries, facility maintenance, utilities, custodial, and other operational expenses.

On July 16, 2025, the Parks and Recreation Department held a workshop to solicit feedback from the City Council regarding the proposed cost recovery methodology regarding the Parks and Recreation Fees.

ANALYSIS
The West Sacramento Parks & Recreation Department partnered with 110%, a consulting firm of former practitioners, to conduct a financial sustainability study. The study organized services into categories of “like services” to support equitable subsidy allocation, realistic cost recovery goals, and consistent budget reporting.

A comprehensive cost-of-service analysis was also completed, capturing revenues, direct costs, and indirect costs to reveal the true cost of service delivery. The results, based on Fiscal Year 2023 data, provide a clear picture of current cost recovery and subsidy investment levels across all divisions, facilities, and parks. These findings will guide the Department in setting future financial sustainability and cost recovery goals.

Cost Recovery Policy
The purpose of the Cost Recovery Policy (Attachment 2) is to create a consistent process and cost-recovery approach for determining Parks and Recreation program and service fees, ensuring equitable access, diverse service offerings and long-term financial sustainability. The policy ensures that taxpayer subsidies will prioritize essential community-wide interests that have a far-reaching impact, universal value and provide access for all.

Individualized services that have smaller target market, limited impact, exclusive access and are considered 263
Resolution 25-99 Book of Fees – Park and Recreation Department October 1, 2025

Page 2 ends

discretionary or self-interest will have an increased cost recovery requirement to ensure taxpayer subsidies serve the common good. This Policy allows the City services users, staff, and general taxpayers to better understand the philosophy behind pricing of a program or service in addition to: increase revenue and cost recovery of programs in a fair and equitable manner, establish fair and consistent rationale for the level of subsidy provided to various programs and services, ensure financial sustainability and allow for expansion and enhancement of services by utilizing revenues more effectively.

The development of service categories are outlined in the policy which provides a justifiable and equitable allocation of subsidy, cost recovery levels, and assignment of budget. The benefits of this type of approach are two-fold. First, it is inefficient for the Department to determine cost recovery expectations by each individual service including facility, activity, or event. Second, categorizing by “type of service” or “likeness of service” discourages attempts to determine fees and charges (and therefore cost recovery decisions) based upon special interests, age-based services, or individual values. The Service Categories with the corresponding cost recovery goals are outlined in Attachment 2.

If a program or service has a cost recovery goal that exceeds its current performance, incremental fee increases may be implemented, aligned with market rates, to optimize revenue while maintaining participant retention. A program analysis will be conducted to determine whether the program should continue based on the identified beneficiary of service or if divestment is appropriate. If the program is retained, a market-based rate will be established, and efforts will focus on increasing participation, reducing expenses, and pursuing funding partnerships.

Needs Based Assistance
The Department ensures that services are accessible to residents who may require financial assistance to access or participate in parks and recreation services. The Department will appropriate funds fairly and equitably to support persons in financial need, with a focus on low-income households earning less than 50% of the area’s median income. Funding will be made available in a way that provides reduced rates (up to 50%) to the neediest individuals and families as well as providing equitable subsidies across the system. Eligibility is based on proof of enrollment in a low-income subsidy program or comparable government assistance program.

Book of Fees Update
The Parks and Recreation Book of Fees shall be reviewed annually and updated as needed in accordance with the Cost Recovery Policy. All fees will comply with Government Code § 66016, including the required 10- day public notice period prior to implementation, if approved by the City Council following a public hearing.

Exhibit A of Resolution 25-99 (Attachment 1) details the revisions to the Book of Fees for facility rentals and provides a comprehensive list of fees incorporated into the City’s Cost Recovery Policy.

Environmental Considerations
This action is not a project that is subject to CEQA because it is not an activity that may cause either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (Pub. Resources Code, § 21065; CEQA Guidelines §§ 15060(c), 15378(a).)
Commission Recommendation
On June 3, 2025, the Parks, Recreation, and Intergenerational Services Commission received a workshop on the proposed cost recovery methodology for the Parks and Recreation Book of Fees. The Commission was generally supportive of the proposed methodology and spoke favorably on providing fee assistance programs for those in need and maintaining support for non-profit/government access to facility spaces Strategic Plan Integration
Not applicable.

Alternatives
The Council’s primary alternatives to the recommended actions are summarized below:

1. The Council could request additional information and direct staff to return at a future date.

2. The Council could approve some or none of the recommendations.

Neither alternative is recommended because it would delay a higher cost recovery on these fees. 264

Page 3 ends

Coordination and Review
This report was coordinated by Parks and Recreation Department in consultation with the Finance Department.

Fiscal Impact
Implementation of the proposed fee adjustments will improve the City’s cost recovery, reduce general purpose tax subsidies and improve net performance of General Fund, ensure legal compliance, improved transparency, and result in a more user-friendly fee schedule. Increased revenue from under-recovering services will support more sustainable operations.

1 CITY OF WEST SACRAMENTO
ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY NUMBER: XX-XX
DATE: October 1, 2025
SUBJECT: PARKS AND RECREATION COST RECOVERY
POLICY
AUTHORITY: City Manager

PURPOSE
To create a consistent process and cost-recovery approach for determining Parks and Recreation program and service fees, ensuring equitable access, diverse service offerings and long-term financial sustainability.

POLICY
It is the policy of the City of West Sacramento to utilize a consistent and equitable process in implementing cost recovery strategies that prioritize the common good. This policy ensures that taxpayer subsidies will prioritize essential community-wide interests that have a far-reaching impact, universal value and provide access for all. Individualized services that have smaller target market, limited impact, exclusive access and are considered discretionary or self-interest will have an increased cost recovery requirement to ensure taxpayer subsidies serve the common good.

This Policy allows the City services users, staff, and general taxpayers to better understand the philosophy behind pricing of a program or service.

The Cost Recovery Policy will help to:
 Increase revenue and cost recovery of programs in a fair and equitable manner.  Establish a fair and consistent rationale for the level of tax subsidy of programs, services and facilities based on categories of service and level of public versus individual benefit.  Ensure financial sustainability for existing programs and services.  Allow for expansion and enhancement of services by utilizing tax and program revenues more effectively.
 Establish the appropriate price for a given program, service or facility.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES
The guiding principles for the creation of an effective pricing policy are as follows:
 Accessibility, equity and affordability based on the category of service level and community benefit.
 Serving the common good and universal value will be prioritized with a lower cost recovery goal compared to programs with an individual and exclusionary benefit.  Effective and appropriate funding strategies from general fund, tax measures user fees, and other sources.
 Improved efficiency in the cost of providing programs, services and facilities.  Financial sustainability by achieving established cost recovery targets.

DEFINITIONS
Cost Recovery refers to offsetting the costs (expenses) of delivering services by way of revenues generated from the consumers’ fees and charges or other alternative revenue streams such as grants, donations, or sponsorships.
284
2 Direct Expenses are City costs associated with staff, materials and supplies and other resources associated with providing the program, service, or operating the facility. Direct expenses also includes the proportional cost of the program or facility supervisor, coordinator or administrative personnel based on the time required to plan, organize, and direct the operation of that program, service, or facility.

Fully Burdened Rate refers to the total hourly or annual cost of an employee including wages and indirect costs such as benefits, payroll taxes, insurance, overhead, and administrative expenses.

Indirect Expenses are the cost of the City Departments to provide the program or facility. Indirect expenses include Department Administration, marketing, information technology, and facility or maintenance staff. Indirect expenses can also include City wide functionalities such as Human Resources, Finance, City Manager, and City Attorney time associated with supporting the operation of the program or facility.

Subsidy refers to a tax source provided by the City to mitigate a financial burden and is considered to be in the overall interest of the public by serving the common good.

Market Rates refer to the relative affordability of programs and services for West Sacramento residents when compared to those offered by similarly sized cities and districts in the region. This includes comparisons across public, private, non-profit, and school district providers with comparable program offerings.

SERVICE CATEGORIES
The development of service categories is required to provide a justifiable and equitable allocation of subsidy, cost recovery levels, and assignment of budget. The benefits of this type of approach are two-fold. First, it is inefficient for the Department to determine cost recovery expectations by each individual service including facility, activity, or event. Second, categorizing by “type of service” or “likeness of service” discourages attempts to determine fees and charges (and therefore cost recovery decisions) based upon special interests, age-based services, or individual values. The following Service Categories represent the Department’s service menu and include Service Category definitions as well as examples.

Open Access Activities (0% Cost Recovery) are self-directed activity in parks and park areas which does not include supervision or oversight by staff and/or volunteers. [Examples: Parks, Playgrounds, Splash Pads, Trails, Outdoor Sports Courts, Public Art, etc.] Human Services (0-5% Cost Recovery) are services designed to assist in maintaining independence and connection to the community by linking and/or providing resources for those in need. [Examples: Adaptive Recreation, Meal Services, Case Management, Referrals, Shelter, HEAP, HICAP, Lawyer Services, Holiday Basket sign-up, etc.] Community Events (0-5% Cost Recovery) are large-scale events that appeal to a broad portion of the community regardless of age, ability/skill, family composition, etc. These events typically involve other departments or agencies. [Examples: Rhythm on the River, Holiday Tree Lighting, Safe Trick-or-Treat, Juneteenth, Spring Celebration/Earth Day, Arbor Day, Cinema at Sundown, Dive-In, etc.]
285
3 Beginner Level Activities (30%-40% Cost Recovery) are classes, clinics, workshops, and other led and/or instructed activities in which the primary intent is to acquire or learn a skill. [Examples:

Swim Lessons, Intro to Sport classes, NFL Flag & Jr NBA/WNBA, Senior exercise and enrichment programming such as: Intro Dance Classes, Zumba Gold, Tai-chi, Beg/intro Line Dancing, Bingo and games, Crafts, Senior Lounge, etc.]
Special Events (35%-50% Cost Recovery) are events designed for a target market or a specific interest. [Examples: Parent/Kids Night Out, Soggy Doggy, The Family Dance, Disco Party Workout, Senior Field Trips, Movie Nights, Ceramics, Art Reception, Zumba, etc.] Education & Enrichment Activities (35%-55% Cost Recovery) are camps, classes, clinics, workshops, and other led and/or instructed activities designed to enhance self- sufficiency and personal, physical, and social development. [Examples: Pre-school program, Day Camps, Field Trips, Fitness Education Workshops, Mad Science, Lifeguard Training, Clubhouse Rec, Teen After School Program, etc.]
Drop-in Activities (45%-60% Cost Recovery) are self-directed activities which may not require registration or instruction but include supervision or oversight by staff and/or volunteers. [Examples: Group Exercise, Lap Swim, Rec Swim, Open Gym, Childcare, Pickleball, Weight Room, etc.]
Intermediate Level Activities (45% - 60% Cost Recovery) are camps, classes, clinics, workshops, and other led and/or instructed activities in which the primary intent is to advance a skill. [Examples: Youth Water Polo, Fitness Challenge, etc.] Advanced Level Activities (55% - 70% Cost Recovery) are leagues and team play designed to be competitive in nature and where scoring is kept. [Examples: Adult Softball, Adult Basketball, Adult Volleyball, Adult Flag Football, Adult Soccer, Adult Tennis, etc.] Private/Semi-Private Activities (65% - 85% Cost Recovery) are individualized classes, clinics, workshops, and other led and/or instructed activities offered in a private setting to meet the unique needs, interests and/or skill sets of individuals and small groups. [Examples: Personal Training, Basketball Training, Nutrition Coaching, Intro to Fitness, Swim Lessons, etc.] Rentals (70% - 85% Cost Recovery) are space and facility reservations for exclusive use by an individual or group. [Examples: Private Pool Parties, Climbing Parties, Party Room, Sport Fields, Community Center Rooms, Boathouse Community Room, Competition Pool, Picnic Shelter/Pavilions, Tennis Court, Special Event Permit, etc.] Sales (95%-100% Cost Recovery) are consumable and non-consumable goods and services for purchase at various parks and/or recreation facilities. [Examples: Pro-Shop/Gift Items, Food and Beverage Items, T-Shirts, Concession Items, etc.]

FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITILY CONTINUUM
The Parks and Recreation Department’s Financial Sustainability Continuum outlines varying levels of financial investment and cost recovery across services. This model is based on the principle of aligning who benefits from services with who should pay for them, with a focus on prioritizing the common good and community-wide interests. Cost recovery goals were established based on consultant recommendations and subsequently approved by the City Council. Refer to Appendix A for the full Financial Sustainability Continuum 286
4 If a program or service has a cost recovery goal that exceeds its current performance, incremental fee increases may be implemented, aligned with market rates, to optimize revenue while maintaining participant retention. A program analysis will be conducted to determine whether the program should continue based on the identified beneficiary of service or if divestment is appropriate. If the program is retained, a market-based rate will be established, and efforts will focus on increasing participation, reducing expenses, and pursuing funding partnerships.

PARTNERSHIPS
Partnerships are strategic collaborations that enable both the Department and its partner organizations to make efficient use of resources, resulting in cost-effective service delivery, expanded market reach, reduced service duplication, minimized resource fragmentation, and coordinated capital development or improvements. To establish a partnership, there must be a reciprocal benefit for both parties. This ensures that the Department does not function merely as a funding source. Instead, each partner must demonstrate the mutual value they bring to the agreement. All partnerships must deliver equitable benefits to both the Department and the partner organization, guaranteeing that any investment of public resources yields fair and measurable value for taxpayers. The Washington Unified School District (WUSD) and the City of West Sacramento will follow the cost recovery strategies outlined in the Joint Use Facilities Agreement. The Athletic Roundtable, made up of youth sports organizations with 90% local resident participation, will pay a per-player fee based on these cost recovery strategies and current market rates.

NEEDS BASED ASSISTANCE
The Department ensures that services are accessible to residents who may require financial assistance to access or participate in parks and recreation services. The Department will appropriate funds fairly and equitably to support persons in financial need, with a focus on lowincome households earning less than 50% of the area’s median income. Funding will be made available in a way that provides reduced rates (up to 50%) to the neediest individuals and families as well as providing equitable subsidies across the system. Eligibility is based on proof of enrollment in a low-income subsidy program or comparable government assistance program.

The Fee Assistance Fund is supported through Department appropriations, vending revenue, community donations, and fundraising efforts in partnership with the West Sacramento Foundation. The amount of funding allocated annually will be determined through the budget process, based on projected need, available resources, and anticipated community demand.

Awards will vary based upon the financial support requested on behalf of each individual and/or family who applies for assistance.

INSURANCE BASED PROGRAMS
Insurance based programs will be accepted as a form of payment for Rec Center passes and other various programs eligible for insurance reimbursement.

FEE ADJUSTMENTS
Fee adjustments may be made at any time and are dependent on program expenses, revenue and program participation. The City Manager, or their designee, has the authority to make fee adjustments that correspond with the Parks and Recreation Cost Recovery Policy.

Special or Promotional Fees may be established by the Parks & Recreation Director, or their designee, to temporarily reduce fees for a defined period. These discounts may be used to promote or introduce new programs, support marketing efforts, or encourage increased 287
5 participation in underutilized programs. Examples of promotional fees include but are not limited to: multiple sibling discount, personal training bundle pricing, Rec Center Passholder discount for programs, Pre-Paid Annual Recreation Center Pass, Senior Discount, Youth Sports Coach registration, etc.

Non-Resident Fees may be applied to ensure priority access and equitable service delivery for local residents. A 20% premium may be added to the cost of programs and services for nonresidents. However, Recreation Center Monthly Passes will remain at a fixed rate, aligned with established cost recovery goals.

Resident Fees apply to individuals who can provide proof of residency within the City of West Sacramento. Eligibility for resident pricing also extends to students enrolled in the Washington Unified School District. Adults employed in West Sacramento who can provide valid proof of employment, are eligible to purchase a Resident Rec Center Pass only.

Facility Rentals will be based on a set price and determined by competitive market pricing.

Non-profits and Government agencies will receive a 20% discount for business related reservations.

Staff and Equipment Fees will be applied when additional staffing, security, janitorial services, or equipment are required beyond what is included in the standard service fee. These charges will be based on fully burdened rates and will be updated annually by the Finance Department.

Prorating fees will apply when program schedules are reduced due to holidays or facility closures. Fees will not be prorated for late registrations or participant absences. If a monthly pass is purchased after the 1st of the month, the pricing will be adjusted for the fees to include the remaining month.

Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT) is available for recurring monthly Recreation Center passes.

If an EFT is canceled prior to six (6) months, a $30 processing fee will be applied. A hold will be placed on the associated account, and all individuals within that account will be restricted from participating in any programs until the outstanding payment is resolved.

Returned Check Fee of $30 will be charged for each check returned due to insufficient funds.

A hold will be placed on the associated account, and the account holder will be restricted from participating in any programs until the outstanding payment is resolved.

Refunds must be requested five (5) full business days before the start date for a credit or refund.

A refund will be given if the Department cancels the program, or for medical reasons that can be verified by the participant’s doctor. No refunds shall be issued for non-attendance, Recreation Center passes, or material fees. All requests received within five (5) business days must be approved or denied by the Parks and Recreation Director, or their designee. All refund checks will be processed through the Finance Department and mailed within 4-6 weeks. Parks & Recreation management can review refund requests on a case-by-case basis should special circumstances arise.

RIGHT OF EXCLUSION: The City Manager or designated representative may exempt specific programs from the Cost Recovery Policy. If a program does not meet the cost recovery goals, the Department must assess whether it can remain competitively priced within the local market, if alternative funding sources are available, or if the program should be discontinued. If the program is retained due to demonstrated community need, its pricing strategy will be based on market rates and it will be excluded from cost recovery requirements. In no event, however, will prices exceed the actual cost of providing the service. 288

The current Teen Volunteer Program would count towards this program. The volunteers would do jobs such as cleaning cars, removing graffiti, and planting flowers. Answering phones does not constitute a job. The work program will only work if a real job is available.
