TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: John B. Bahorski, City Manager
FROM: Pamela Arends -King, Director of Administrative Services/Treasurer
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE FEE SCHEDULE 2001/2002
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Establish the rates and amounts of fees and charges for certain goods, services and
facilities provided by the City of Seal Beach and supersede inconsistent provisions of
previously approved resolutions.
BACKGROUND:
Under State of California guidelines, fees and charges for municipal goods and services
are to be set at a rate equivalent or below costs incurred in providing for that service.
Fees are to be based on an analysis of costs and may not be arbitrarily set. A fee or
charge may, as a matter of public policy, be set at a rate below costs, when a public
benefit or good exists in having the General Fund subsidy for specific service to an
individual(s).
For the 2001/2002 fiscal year, staff reviewed fees and charges and recommends fees and
charges authorized and established in prior year Comprehensive Fee Schedule remain the
same except for the following fee increases:
• Transportation Facilities and Programs Development Fees and Transportation
Facilities and Programs Development Application Fees paid by developers, increased
0.9 %. The 0.9% increase is the "Engineering News Record Construction Cost 20
City Average" from May 2000 to May 2001. See attachment A.
• Animal Licenses for unaltered dogs pursuant to section 3- 10.7(a) of the Seal Beach
Municipal Cod Vehicle increased to $25.00 which is consistent with what other
County agencies are charging.
Agenda Item S
• Contractor Business License fee increased 3.7% based on the Consumer Price Index
as of May 2001 for the Los Angeles Urban Area. The license fee increased from
$157 to $163.
• A Pool Cash Bond Deposit was added for $500 to cover damage to public
improvements and necessary clean up to comply with clean water regulations.
• Fees for Use of Municipal Athletic Facilities for Bluebell lights and field increased.
Youth groups (resident) increased from $10 to $15; Youth groups (non - resident)
increased from $15 to $20; Adult groups (resident) increased from $20 to $25; Adult
groups (non - resident) increased from $30 to $40; and Business Use increased from
$55 to $60. Fees for Zoeter softball diamond with lights for Youth groups (resident)
increased from $20 to $25; Youth groups (non - resident) increased from $25 to $30;
Adult groups (resident) increased from $40 to $45; Adult groups (non - resident)
increased from $50 to $55; and Business Use increased from $60 to $70. The fees
listed are per hour charges and the increase was initiated to help cover the rise in
electricity costs. Adult use of the gymnasium also increased per hour to help cover
rising electric bills. Adult groups (resident) increase from $30 to $35; Adult groups
(non - resident) increased from $45 to $50; and Business use increased form $55 to
$60.
• The cost of overhead for services provided by the City and no method for the
calculation is specified through this Resolution, other City Council resolutions, the
Code of the City of Seal Beach, or other state or federal ruling increased from 15% to
18.7 %. This increase is based on the 3.7% consumer price index as of May 2001 for
the Los Angeles Urban Area.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommended Comprehensive Fee Schedule will balance cost recovery of services
rendered and, therefore, reduce General Fund tax and revenue subsidies.
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council adopt the Comprehensive Fee Schedule establishing the rates and amount of
fees and charges for good, services and facilities provided by the City of Seal Beach.
