SUMMARY: Resolution No. 2025-05 (Exhibit 2-A) amends Rule 60, the Fees and Charges Table, to reflect actual expenses (time, effort, and cost) incurred by the District as a result of providing the services listed.  The amendments (Exhibit 2-B) are shown in bold italic text. Resolution No. 2025-05 must be adopted to implement these changes to Rule 60.

 

The amendments to the Fees and Charges Table include:

 

1.      Line Items were updated to reflect the actual general staff rate. The staff rate is calculated using fully loaded hourly rates for the fiscal year that includes indirect costs related to District benefits and general overhead. The general staff rate was last updated on June 19, 2017. This should be reviewed at least every five years going forward.

2.      Line Items for Application Fees for Residential and Non-Residential were combined and renumbered. Items were reorganized as one line item, the fees are the same regardless of the type of use Residential versus Non-Residential. The workflow, time, and effort are very similar to both type of applications. The processing fees were last updated on June 19, 2017. This should be reviewed at least every five years going forward.

 

RECOMMENDATION: The Finance and Administration Committee should recommend that the Board adopt Resolution No. 2025-05, Amending Rule 60, Fees and Charges Table.

 

BACKGROUND: The Fees and Charges Table can be updated by Board Resolution.  The Fees and Charges Table was last updated on June 20, 2023, by adoption of Resolution No. 2023-10.
