FROM: Corey Garberolio, Finance Director Janine Tedrow, Finance and Accounting Manager SUBJECT: Resolution Accepting the Fiscal Year 2019 Development Impact Fee Report Pursuant to Assembly Bill 1600 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution Accepting the Fiscal Year 2019 Development Impact Fee Report Pursuant to Assembly Bill (AB) 1600. BACKGROUND The Mitigation Fee Act, Government Code §§66000 et seq., (the "Act") governs the establishment and administration of development impact fees paid by new development projects for public facilities needed to serve new development. Fees must be separately accounted for and used for the specific purpose for which the fee was imposed. Expenditures are authorized through the annual Capital and Operating Budgets and the City's Capital Improvement Program. The annual adopted City Budget is on file with the City Clerk. DISCUSSION The Mitigation Fee Act requires that the City prepare an annual accounting report of all fees subject to the Act (Government Code §66006(b)(1)). The annual development impact fee report for the year ending June 30, 2019 is included as Attachment 2 to this agenda report. PUBLIC OUTREACH The annual development impact fee report must be made available to interested parties and the public at least 15 days prior to the time the report is presented at a City Council meeting for review by the Council pursuant to Government Code §66006(b)(2). This agenda item appeared on a tentative agenda in the previously -published agenda packet, which was publicly noticed through appropriate City communications channels. The FY 2018-2019 report was made available to the public on the City of Petaluma website on February 6, 2020; and a copy of the report also was mailed on February 6, 2020 to all persons who had requested mailed notice relating to City fees. FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no financial impacts directly related to the recommended action. Depending on development activities there may or may not be direct expenditures for some of these funds. There are, however, fixed costs related to the administration and accounting of the development fees, which have been reported as "City Administrative Costs" and which occur regardless of whether direct expenses have occurred. A summary of all impact fee expenditures during FY 2018-2019 is also included in Attachment 2. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution Accepting the Annual Development Impact Fee Report 2.

Fees must be separately accounted for and used for the specific purpose for which the fee was imposed. The City's adopted development impact fees are listed in the attached exhibits. Expenditures are authorized through the annual Capital and Operating Budgets and the City's Capital Improvement Program. The annual adopted City Budget is on file with the City Clerk. Annual Development Fee Reporting The Act requires that the City prepare an annual review of all development impact fees as defined in the Act and make a public report on the fees available to the public after the end of each fiscal year. Government Code §66006(b)(2) requires the report to be placed on an agenda for review at a public meeting not less than 15 days after the report is made available to the public. The Fiscal Year 2018-2019 report was made available to the public on the City of Petaluma website on February 6, 2020, a copy of the report also was mailed to all persons who had requested mailed notice relating to city fees on February 6, 2020. Excluded from this report are developer fees which are not subject to the reporting requirements of the Act. For example, fees collected pursuant to the City's zoning powers, rather than pursuant to the Act, are in -lieu housing fees, the commercial linkage fee which is the non-residential equivalent of an in -lieu housing fee, public art in -lieu fees and one fee related to the Central Petaluma Specific Plan area. Water capacity fees and wastewater capacity fees are not development impact fees as defined in Sections 66006 and 66001 of the Act. The Quimby Act parkland acquisition fee for residential subdivisions is imposed pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act (Gov't. Code §66477), and is also not included in the Section 66001 reporting requirement. The Storm Drainage Fee was last updated in 1986, prior to the January 1, 1989 effective date of AB 1600, but is nevertheless included in this report and findings for informational purposes. The city is also required to adopt by resolution certain findings for any fund accounts which contain unexpended funds as of the fifth fiscal year following the first deposit into those funds and every five years thereafter. (Gov't. Code §66001(d).) In FY 18-19, no impact fee funds fall into this category and therefore no resolution has been adopted related to unexpended funds. The report is organized as follows: Exhibit A: A brief description of the purposes of each development impact fee and its authorizing legislation (Gov't. Code §66006(b)(1)(A).) Exhibit B: Summary of the July 1, 2018 beginning balance, annual fee revenue collected, interest earned, returned unused funds from projects and loan repayments, identification of public improvements on which fees were expended and the ending balance as of June 30, 2019 for each fee (Gov't. Code §66006(b)(1)(C)-(E).) Excess funds from capital project funds were returned to the originating revenue funds. The annual expenditures on each specific public improvement are listed, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with development impact fees. In addition to public improvement project costs, the City incurs costs to administer each mitigation fee program and to prepare the annual reports and the five-year compliance analysis also required by the Act. As shown in the mitigation fee cost studies (or "nexus studies") which support the various impact fees, the City charges administrative and compliance costs at 2% of the program cost for each fee as a program expense. The actual dollar cost for these expenditures is listed for each fee. No individual development impact fee fund has collected sufficient funds to construct all improvements covered by that fund as described in the nexus studies (Gov't. Code §66006(b)(1)(F).) Exhibit C: Identifies the amount of each development impact fee, including all modifications since original fee adoption. Exhibit D: Identifies interfund loans, transfers, refunds or reallocation of funds in lieu of refunds in Fiscal Year 2018-2019 (Gov't. Code §66006(b)(l)(G)-(H)).

STORM DRAIN IMPACT FEE Calculation of Fee Runoff computation: The increase in runoff created by a given project is calculated for a 100 -year stonn, utilizing runoff coefficients based upon the portion of vegetated area to impervious surfaces, and expressed in acre-feet. Runoff coefficients are based upon the type of use, slope of the land, and percent of vegetation coverage. Commercial/Industrial: Projects pay a fee of $30,000 per acre foot of additional runoff. The amount of incremental runoff created is directly linked to the amount of landscaping provided. The maximum fee possible is $9,000 per acre of land. This would apply to a project with 20% or less landscaping. A project with 25% landscaping can expect a fee of $6,750 per acre, 30% would pay $6,300 per acre, and so on. Residential: Projects pay a fee of $15,000 per acre foot of additional runoff. Incremental runoff is dependent upon the density of a project and the amount of landscaping and open space provided. A high density project with 20% or less area in landscaping could expect to pay $4,500 per acre. A type detached single-family subdivision would pay approximately $1,500 per acre.
