Cost Recovery Schedule
Cost Recovery/Fee Schedule
•When a service/program provides a benefit to specific individuals/groups, it is appropriate for the
individual(s) receiving that benefit to pay for the cost of that service.
•Full Cost Recovery and Fee Schedule every 3-4 Years
WHEREAS, the City Council desires that annually the City Manager may update the fees, charges, rates,
and fines based on the annual percentage change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index for Los Angeles-
Long Beach-Anaheim, CA (CPI). If the CPI does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall
be made to the fee schedule that year.
•Current fee resolution adopted in 2023 authorizes an annual inflationary adjustment to be
applied in between comprehensive studies
•The annual update represents an interim CPI adjustment year, adjustment for FY 2025-26 is 3.3%
(annual change in regional CPI)
•Other minor changes are proposed to enhance fee schedule clarity and improve correlation between
services provided and costs recovered: Example include addition of late fee charge for reservations
•Effective date July 1, 2025
