Each department has recently completed a review of their fees and the proposed changes are outlined in this report and in Resolution No. 7047. Should Resolution No. 7047 be adopted by the City Council, the new fee amounts will become effective January 1, 2015. BACKGROUND City fees are reviewed on a regular basis for the purpose of making sure they are consistent with the cost of providing the service. Fee amounts are set at a rate that enables the City to recover all or a portion of the cost of the service. In no instance may a fee exceed the cost of providing the service. Before changing or setting a fee, staff conducts a cost analysis study to determine the actual cost of providing service. In addition to reviewing such things as staff and /or consultant time and materials, the cost analysis takes into account the impact to the end user and the amount charged by other municipalities for similar services. This ensures that the established fees do not overburden the rate payer. DISCUSSION The City of Arcadia has approximately 940 different user fees. Of these, it is proposed that 60 of them be increased, two (2) be lowered, five (5) be established, and two (2) be eliminated. The remaining 871 fees — almost 93% of them — will remain unchanged. Resolution No. 7047 establishing /adjusting various City fees October 21, 2014 Page 2 of 6 The current review of fees has resulted in proposed changes to fees in the Library and Museum Services, Development Services, Public Works Services, Recreation and Community Services, and Fire Departments. The changes are detailed in Exhibit "A" attached to Resolution No. 7047 and are summarized below. Library and Museum Services The Library & Museum Services Department is requesting an increase to the "Items Lost or Damaged Beyond Repair" fee and the elimination of the "Forgotten Library Card" fee. The circulation fee for the cost of media container replacement is currently listed as a separate fee of $3.00 to $10.00. The fee varies depending on the specific type of media container. This replacement cost is already included in the "replacement cost of item" fee listed on the Library Fines and Fees schedule. Removing this listing on the fee schedule eliminates a redundancy. The Library currently charges patrons $1.00 to check out materials when they have forgotten their library card more than once in the previous 12 months. This fee predates the Library's current integrated library system. There are currently other ways to determine identity of a patron that are quicker, easier, and more customer - friendly. It is recommended that this fee be eliminated. Revenue would be reduced by approximately $500 -$700 per year. Development Services The Development Services Department is proposing a 3% increase in the Business License fees, which were last changed in 2011 with a 3% increase. Pursuant to Arcadia Municipal Code Section 6221.1.1, Business License fees may be adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the month of October with any change to be effective the following January 1st. Based on the difference of the CPI from the previous October, the difference (increase or decrease) may be applied to the Business License fees. The 3% being proposed is less than the CPI increase of 5.74% since 2011. Attached is Exhibit `A' that shows the details of the proposed 3% increase, which will result in approximately $40,000 in additional revenue to the City. Public Works Services The Public Works Services Department is requesting to add two new fees for the Cross - Connection Control Program: backflow device inspection for new construction and backflow device administration (testing notice). Staff currently provides backflow device test and inspection for new construction to ensure that backflow prevention devices are properly installed, as required by the California Plumbing Code and California Resolution No. 7047 establishing /adjusting various City fees October 21, 2014 Page 3 of 6 Department of Public Health. Additionally, the County of Los Angeles Public Health requires the City to annually administer test reports to property owners to verify that the backflow prevention devices are functioning properly. Presently, there is no charge for these services; however the City absorbs $67,990 in costs. Adding a fee of $170 for the initial installation and $10 for the annual inspection will help the City cover approximately $57,100 of those costs. Recreation and Communitv Services Over the past few years, the Recreation and Community Services Department has been working closely in collaboration with the Arcadia Unified School District to create Joint Use Agreements for athletic fields. In July 2014, a Joint Use Agreement was entered into for the use of the Arcadia High School Stadium Field. As part of the agreement, the City of Arcadia agreed to pay a portion of the Capital Outlay cost for the renovation of a new synthetic turf field and a yearly maintenance fee for an agreed time for use of the stadium field. The majority of use on this field comes from youth and adult athletic leagues not associated with the City of Arcadia or the Arcadia Unified School District, but rather from organized leagues utilizing the amenities in Arcadia to operate their programs. During the same period of time, Recreation and Community Services staff was meeting and communicating the these leagues utilizing the synthetic turf fields at Arcadia High School and the Civic Center Field that potential fees may be charged for the use of these fields in the future once an agreement was established. In early October 2014, staff from the Recreation and Community Services Department met with the individuals representing these leagues and to acquire their input regarding potential hourly fees for use of these synthetic turf fields. Staff received several questions about the billing process, but no specific questions regarding the hourly fee. Every neighboring City charges for the use of athletic fields, with rates ranging from $40 to over $100 per hour. On October 7, 2014, a report was given to the City Council on the subject. City Council recommended that staff bring back the proposed hourly fee of $28.90 for use of the Arcadia High School Stadium Field and the Civic Center Field. If established, this fee would recover the Capital Outlay, annual maintenance, and staffing costs of the two fields. The $28.90 per hour is less than the charge of $64.20 per hour that the School District was charging adult field users prior to the joint use agreement. The City Council also agreed with staff's recommended to proceed with annual security deposits of $250.00 for use of athletic fields and $250.00 for use of City concession stands. On October 8, 2014, this item was presented to the Recreation and Parks Commission. The Recreation and Parks Commission recommended the proposed fees on a 4 -1 vote. Resolution No. 7047 establishing /adjusting various City fees October 21, 2014 Page 4 of 6 Fire Department The Fire Department is proposing to increase 59 of its 71 existing fees and decrease two (2) fees. The changes are required in order to address increases in labor and materials costs over time. The majority of increases will be in the $10 -15 range on fees that are not charged very often. Therefore, the overall additional charge to the end users is not significant. The largest single line item affected will be for False Alarm Response, which will be raised from $300 to $325 and result in $1,250 in additional revenue to the City; the actual cost to provide this service is $326.13 per incident. As a reminder, such fees are not charged until the number of false alarms received at a given address in a year is deemed to be excessive. The proposed resolution also formally reestablishes the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Assessment Fee. The EMS Assessment Fee was established in 2005 by the adoption of Ordinance No. 2202. However, the fee was never included in the actual Fee Schedule that is periodically adopted by City Council. Known colloquially as "Treat And No Transport ", this fee is designed to recover the costs associated with providing emergency medical assessments and paramedic services on medical incidents in which the patient did not receive transportation to the hospital. Based on the latest cost analysis, it is recommended that the EMS Assessment Fee be set at $175. The Fire Department currently does not charge patients when an EMS assessment is done without transport, nor does the Fire Department plan on charging this fee in the near future. However, having the fee in the established Schedule gives the organization flexibility to charge the fee if it becomes necessary in the future and it complies with the adopted Ordinance. Finally, the Paramedic Membership Program (PMP) will have some adjustments to its membership rates and structure. Created in 1994, the Paramedic Membership Program is a voluntary membership program available to Arcadia residents that ensures no out - of- pocket expenses should a member ever need emergency medical services or hospital transportation provided by the Fire Department. As of October 2014, the program has a total of 3,028 resident and business members. The $40 basic membership rate has remained unchanged since the program's inception two decades ago, and a recent study of area cities indicated that Arcadia charges the lowest rates among the eight (8) cities surveyed. In addition, the study also showed that Arcadia is the only city that provides for visitors coverage. Therefore, it is recommended that the PMP rates be adjusted to $51 for a basic membership, which will put Arcadia in the middle of the area cities that were surveyed. Additionally, the visitor's coverage component of the program will be eliminated due to administrative complexities and ambiguities over the determination of whether a patient is a visitor of a PMP member.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The establishment and /or adjustment of fees are statutorily exempt from CEQA per Section 15273 of the CEQA Guidelines (Sections 21080(b)(8) and 21083, Public Resources Code). Resolution No. 7047 establishing /adjusting various City fees October 21, 2014 Page 6 of 6 PUBLIC COMMENTS /NOTICE Consideration of Resolution No. 7047 requires a public hearing, which was noticed to the public in the Arcadia Weekly newspaper on October 9 and October 13. As of the time this report was written, no comments had been received. FISCAL IMPACT The net fiscal impact from the fee adjustments is estimated at $246,114 ($199,014 for the General Fund and $57,100 for the Water Fund), although it should be noted that this estimate is dependent on the level of participation by the users of the services after they become effective on January 1, 2015. The new fee rates are not reflected in the adopted Fiscal Year 2014 -15 Budget.
