of the City of Petaluma, California
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PETALUMA AMENDING THE PREVIOUSLY ADOPTED MASTER FEE SCHEDULE TO ADD A MOBILEHOME PARK CONVERSION FEE PURSUANT TO SECTION 8.34.120 OF THE PETALUMA MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Petaluma (“City”) has previously established fees and charges for City services, with the intent of recovering up to the City’s estimated actual and reasonable cost to provide such services, and adopted and updated such service fees as part of the City’s Master Fee Schedule; and WHEREAS, on May 6, 2024, City Council conducted a public hearing related to changes and updates to the Master Fee Schedule and adopted Resolution 2024-049 N.C.S. Establishing a Schedule of Fees and Charges for City Services to approve a new Master Fee Schedule; and WHEREAS, Chapter 8.34 of the Petaluma Municipal Code establishes requirements for converting a
mobilehome park to another use, closing a mobilehome park, or ceasing the use of land as a mobilehome park; and WHEREAS, Petaluma Municipal Code Section 8.34.120 authorizes City Council to establish “reasonable fees to cover any costs incurred by the city in implementing” Chapter 8.34 and provides that
“[s]uch fees shall be paid by the park owner or applicant subject to the provisions of [chapter 8.34] in accordance with the limitations of Section 65863.7(g) of the Government Code;” and WHEREAS, Government Code Section 65863.7(g) states that, “[t]he legislative body may establish reasonable fees pursuant to Section 66016 to cover any costs incurred by the local agency in implementing
this section and Section 65863.8, and that “those fees shall be paid by the person or entity proposing the change in use;” and WHEREAS, in accordance with Government Code Section 66016, prior to levying a new fee, a local agency shall hold at least one open and public meeting, at which oral or written presentations can be made,
as part of a regularly scheduled meeting, and that at least 10 days prior to the meeting, the local agency shall make available to the public data indicating the amount of cost required to provide the service for which the fee is levied and the revenue sources anticipated to provide the service; and WHEREAS, the fees proposed pursuant to Petaluma Municipal Code Section 8.34.120 to recover any
costs incurred by the City in implementing Chapter 8.34 of the Petaluma Municipal Code, as evidenced by Exhibit A attached hereto, do not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service or regulatory act for which the fees are charged and are therefore not a “special tax” pursuant to Article XIIIC of the California Constitution; and
WHEREAS, the fees for implementing Chapter 8.34 of the Petaluma Municipal Code are reasonable, fair, and equitable in nature and proportionately representative of the costs incurred by the City in processing applications under Chapter 8.34, because the fees would merely recover the cost of staff time and other costs incurred by the City in processing applications; and

1 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Executive Summary
The City of Petaluma engaged Willdan Financial Services (Willdan) to determine the full costs incurred by
the City to support the various activities for which the City charges user fees. Due to the complexity and
the breadth of performing a comprehensive review of fees, Willdan employed a variety of fee
methodologies to identify the full costs of individual fee and program activities. This report and the
appendices herein identify 100% full cost recovery for City services and the recommended level of recovery
as determined through discussion with departmental staff. The recommended fees identified herein are
either at or less than full cost recovery.

2 Comprehensive User Fee Study
User Fee Background
Background
As part of a general cost recovery strategy, local governments adopt user fees to fund programs and services
that provide limited or no direct benefit to the community as a whole. As cities struggle to maintain levels
of service and variability of demand, they have become increasingly aware of subsidies provided by the
General Fund and have implemented cost-recovery targets. To the extent that governments use general
tax monies to provide individuals with private benefits, and not require them to pay the full cost of the
service (and, therefore, receive a subsidy), the government is limiting funds that may be available to provide
other community-wide benefits. In effect, the government is using community funds to pay for private
benefits. Unlike most revenue sources, cities have more control over the level of user fees they charge to
recover costs, or the subsidies they can institute.
Fees in California are required to conform to the statutory requirements of the California Constitution,
Proposition 218, Proposition 26, and the California Code of Regulations. The Code also requires that the
City Council adopt fees by either ordinance or resolution, and that any fees in excess of the estimated total
cost of rendering the related services must be approved by a popular vote of two-thirds of those electors
voting because the charge would be considered a tax and not a fee. There are no fees suggested to be set
above the cost of service and as such a public vote is not required.
California User Fee History
Before Proposition 13, In times of fiscal shortages, California cities were able to raise property taxes, which
funded everything from police and recreation to development-related services. However, this situation
changed with the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978.
Proposition 13 established the era of revenue limitation in California local government. In subsequent years,
the state saw a series of additional limitations to local government revenues. Proposition 4 (1979) defined
the difference between a tax and a fee: a fee can be no greater than the cost of providing the service; and
Proposition 218 (1996) further limited the imposition of taxes for certain classes of fees. As a result, cities
were required to secure a supermajority vote in order to enact or increase taxes. Due to the thresholds
needed to increase local taxes, cities have less control and very few successful options for new revenues.
The State of California took a series of actions in the 1990’s and 2000’s to improve the State’s fiscal situation,
at the expense of local governments. In 2004-05, the Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (“ERAF”)
take-away of property taxes and the reduction of Vehicle License Fees further reduced local tax revenues.
In addition, on November 2, 2010, California voters approved Proposition 26, the “Stop Hidden Taxes
Initiative”, which is aimed at defining “regulatory fees” as a special tax rather than a fee, thus requiring
approval by two-thirds vote of local voters. These regulatory fees are typically intended to mitigate the
societal and environmental impacts of a business or person’s activities. Proposition 26 contains seven
categories of exceptions. The fees analyzed as part of a User Fee study typically fall under categories one
through five consisting of charges for specific benefits, government service, regulatory need, for use of
government property, or a fine/penalty.

3 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Additional Policy Considerations
State regulations require that municipalities update their fee schedules to reflect the actual costs of certain
public services primarily benefiting users. User Fees recover costs associated with the provision of specific
services benefiting the user, thereby typically reducing the use of General Fund monies for such purposes.
In addition to collecting the direct cost of labor and materials associated with processing and administering
user services, it is common for local governments to recover reasonable support costs. Support costs are
those costs relating to a local government’s central service departments that are allocable to the local
government’s operating departments. Central services support cost allocations were incorporated using
the resulting indirect overhead percentages determined through the City’s Cost Allocation Plan. This plan
was used in the User Fee study to account for the burden placed upon central services by the operating
departments in order to allocate a proportionate share of central service cost through the study.
As labor effort and costs associated with the provision of services fluctuate over time, a significant element
in the development of any fee schedule is that it has the flexibility to remain current. Therefore, it is
recommended that the City include an inflationary factor in the resolution adopting the fee schedule to
allow the City Council, by resolution, to annually increase or decrease the fees.
The City may employ many different inflationary factors. The most commonly used inflator is some form
of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as it is widely well known and accepted. A similar inflator is the implicit
price deflator for GDP, which is much like the CPI except that while the CPI is based on the same “basket”
of goods and services every year, the price deflators’ “basket” can change year to year. Since the primary
factor for the cost of a City’s services is usually the costs of the personnel involved, tying an inflationary
factor that connects more directly to the personnel costs can also be suitable if there is a clear method, or
current practice of obtaining said factor.
Each City should use an inflator that they believe works the best for their specific situation and needs. It is
also recommended that the City perform this internal review annually with a comprehensive review of
services and fees performed every five years, which would include adding, amending, or removing fees for
programs/services.

4 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Study Objective
As the City of Petaluma seeks to efficiently manage limited resources and adequately respond to increased
service demands, it needs a variety of tools. A User Fee Study provides assurance that the City has the best
information and the best resources available to make sound decisions, fairly and legitimately set fees,
maintain compliance with state law and local policies, and meet the needs of the City administration and
its constituency. Given the limitations on raising revenue in local government, the City recognizes that a
User Fee Study is a very cost-effective way to understand the total cost of services and identify potential
fee deficiencies. Essentially, a User Fee is a payment for a requested service provided by a local government
that primarily benefits an individual or group.
The total cost of each service included in this analysis is based on the full cost of providing City services,
including direct salaries and benefits of City staff, direct departmental costs, and indirect costs from central
service support. This study determines the full cost recovery fee for the City to provide each service;
however, each fee is set at the City’s discretion, up to 100% of the total cost, as specified in this report.
The principal goal of the study was to help the City determine the full cost of the services that the City
provides. In addition, Willdan established a series of additional objectives including:
Developing a rational basis for setting fees
Identifying subsidy amount, if applicable, of each fee in the model
Ensuring compliance with State law
Developing an updatable and comprehensive list of fees
Maintaining accordance with City policies and goals
The study results will help the City better understand its true costs of providing services and may serve as
a basis for making informed policy decisions regarding the most appropriate fees, if any, to collect from
individuals and organizations that require individualized services from the City.
Scope of the Study
The scope of this study encompasses a review and calculation of the user fees charged by the following
Petaluma departments and fee groups:
Administrative
Airport
Building
Planning
Housing
Recreation
Fire
Police
Public Works
Marina
The study involved the identification of existing and potential new fees, fee schedule restructuring, data
collection and analysis, orientation and consultation, quality control, communication and presentations,
and calculation of individual service costs (fees) or program cost recovery levels.

2 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Aim of the Report
The User Fee Study focused on the cost of City services, as City staff currently provide them at existing,
known, or reasonably anticipated service and staff level needs. This report provides a summary of the study
results, and a general description of the approach and methods Willdan and City staff used to determine
the recommended fee schedule. The report is not intended to document all of the numerous discussions
throughout the process, nor is it intended to provide an influential dissertation on the qualities of the
utilized tools, techniques, or alternative approaches.

3 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Project Approach and Methodology
Conceptual Approach
The basic concept of a User Fee Study is to determine the “reasonable cost” of each service provided by
the City for which it charges a user fee. The full cost of providing a service may not necessarily become the
City’s fee, but it serves as the objective basis as to the maximum amount that may be collected.
The standard fee limitation established in California law for such fees is the “estimated, reasonable cost”
principle. In order to maintain compliance with the letter and spirit of this standard, every component of
the fee study process included a related review. The use of budget figures, time estimates, and
improvement valuation clearly indicates reliance upon estimates for some data.
Fully Burdened Hourly Rates
The total cost of each service included in this analysis is primarily based on the Fully Burdened Hourly Rates
(FBHRs) that were determined for City personnel directly involved in providing services. The FBHRs include
not only personnel salary and benefits, but also any costs that are reasonably ascribable to personnel. The
cost elements that are included in the calculation of fully burdened rates are:
Salaries & benefits of personnel involved
Operating costs applicable to fee operations
Departmental support, supervision, and administration overhead
Indirect City-wide overhead costs calculated through the Cost Allocation Plan
An important factor in determining the fully burdened rate is in the calculation of productive hours for
personnel. This calculation takes the available workable hours in a year of 2,080 and adjusts this figure to
1,680 productive or billable hours to account for calculated or anticipated hours’ employees are involved
in non-billable activities such as paid vacation, sick leave, holidays, and other considerations as necessary.
Dividing the full cost, including overhead, of a position by the number of productive hours provides the
FBHR.
The FBHRs are then used in conjunction with time estimates, when appropriate for how a service is
provided, to calculate a fee’s cost based on the personnel and the amount of their time that is involved in
providing each service.

Summary Steps of the Study
The process of the study is straightforward and simple in concept. The following list provides a summary of
the study process steps:
Allowable Costs
This report identifies three types of costs that, when combined, constitute the fully burdened cost of a
service (Appendix A). Costs are defined as
direct labor, including salary and benefits,
departmental overhead costs, and the City’s
central services overhead, where
departmental and central service overhead
costs constitute support costs. These cost
types are defined as follows:
Direct Labor (Personnel Costs): The
costs related to staff salaries for
time spent directly on fee-related
services.
Departmental Overhead: A
proportional allocation of
departmental overhead costs,
including operation costs such as
supplies and materials that are necessary for the department to function.
Central Services Overhead: These costs, as provided via the City’s Cost Allocation Plan, represent
services provided by those Central Services Departments whose primary function is to support
other City departments.

5 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Methodology
The three methods of analysis for calculating fees used in this report are the:
Case Study Method (Standard Unit Cost Build-Up Approach): This approach estimates the actual
labor and material costs associated with providing a unit of service to a single user. This analysis is suitable
when City staff time requirements do not vary dramatically for a service, or for special projects where the
time and cost requirements are easy to identify at the project’s outset. Further, the method is effective in
instances when a staff member from one department assists on an application, service or permit for
another department on an as-needed basis. Costs are estimated based upon interviews with City staff
regarding the time typically spent on tasks, a review of available records, and a time and materials analysis.
Programmatic Approach: In some instances, the underlying data is not available or varies widely, leaving
a standard unit cost build-up approach impractical. In addition, market factors and policy concerns (as
opposed to actual costs) tend to influence rental based fee levels more than other types of services. Willdan
employed a different methodology where appropriate to fit a programs’ needs and goals. Typical
programmatic approach cases are facility use fees, penalties, and instances where a program cost is divided
over the user base to obtain a per applicant cost for shared cost services.
Valuation Based Fees: This manner of collection is used when the valuation of the improvement can be
used as a proxy for the amount of effort it would take for City staff to complete the service provided. More
specifically, this approach is commonly used for certain User Fees in the Building Division. It is generally
accepted that as a project’s size scales up, the cost of the project increases, and the amount of effort needed
to review and inspect also increases. Using a valuation-based fees provides for a system that can adjust as
project sizes scale. Land is not included in the valuation.
Quality Control/Quality Assurance
All study components are interrelated, thus flawed data at any step in the process will cause the ultimate
results to be inconsistent and unsound. The elements of our Quality Control process for User Fee
calculations include:
Involvement of knowledgeable City staff
Clear instructions and guidance to City staff
Reasonableness tests and validation
Internal and external reviews
Cross-checking
Reasons for cost increases/decreases over current fees
Within the fee tables in Appendix C, the differences are identified between the full costs calculated
through the study and the fee levels currently in effect. The reasons for differences between the two can
arise from a number of possible factors including:
Docusign Envelope ID: D9985729-834B-4607-83F9-8F4608C85417
6 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Previous fee levels may have been set at levels less than full cost intentionally, based on policy
decisions
Staffing levels and the positions that complete fee and service activity may vary from when the
previous costs were calculated
Personnel and materials costs could have increased at levels that differed from any inflationary
factors used to increase fees since the last study
Costs that this study has identified as part of the full cost of services may not have been accounted
for in a previous study
o Departmental overhead and administration costs
o Vehicle and Facility Maintenance support costs
o Indirect overhead from the Cost Allocation Plan
Changes in processes and procedures within a department, or the City as a whole
Changes in the demand for services in a City may have also changed the staffing or cost structure
of departments over time
City Staff Contributions
As part of the study process, Willdan received tremendous support and cooperation from City staff, which
contributed and reviewed a variety of components to the study, including:
Budget and other cost data
Staffing structures
Fee and service structures, organization, and descriptions
Direct and indirect work hours (billable/non-billable)
Time estimates to complete work tasks
Review of draft results and other documentation
A User Fee Study requires significant involvement of the managers and line staff from the departments on
top of their existing workloads and competing priorities. The contributions from City staff were critical to
this study. We would like to express our appreciation to the City and its staff for their assistance,
professionalism, positive attitudes, helpful suggestions, responsiveness, and overall cooperation.

7 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Petaluma User Fees
Cost Recovery
The cost recovery models, by department/division fee type, are presented in detail in Appendix C. Full cost
recovery is determined by summing the estimated amount of time each position (in increments of minutes
or hours) spends to render a service. Time estimates for each service rendered were obtained through
interviews conducted with City staff for each department/division fee included in the study. The resulting
cost recovery amount represents the total cost of providing each service. The City’s current fee being
charged for each service, if applicable, is provided in this section, as well, for reference.
It is important to note that the time data used to determine the amount of time each employee spends
assisting in the provision of the services listed on the fee schedule is essential in identifying the total cost
of providing each service, and will differ from City to City depending on staffing, positions involved,
experience on staff, the use of consultants, and the policies and procedures in place for each City.
Specifically, in providing services, a number of employees are often involved in various aspects of the
process, spending anywhere from a few minutes to several hours on the service.
The primary goal of this study was to identify the cost of City services, to provide information to help the
City make informed decisions regarding the actual fee levels and charges. The responsibility of determining
the final fee levels is a complicated task. City staff must consider many issues in formulating
recommendations, and the City Council must consider those same issues and more in making the final
decisions.
City staff assumes the responsibility to develop specific fee level recommendations to present to the City
Council. Unfortunately, there are no hard and fast rules to guide the City, since many of the considerations
are based on the unique characteristics of the City of Petaluma, and administrative and political discretion.
However, in setting the level of full cost recovery for each fee, one should consider whether the service
solely benefits one end user or the general community.
Subsidization
Recalling the definition of a user fee helps guide decisions regarding subsidization. The general standard is
that individuals (or groups) who receive a wholly private benefit should pay 100% of the full cost of the
services. In contrast, services that are simply public benefit should be funded entirely by the general fund’s
tax dollars. Unfortunately, for the decision makers, some services fall into the range between these two
extremes.
Further complicating the decision, opponents of fees often assert that the activities subject to the fees
provide economic, cultural, “quality of life,” or other community benefits that exceed the costs to the City,
but it is important to distinguish the difference between any purported possible benefits that may be
conveyed through the result of activities of the service receiver and the direct benefit being conveyed
through the City providing the service to the requestor.
It is recommended the City consider such factors during its deliberations regarding appropriate fee levels.

8 Comprehensive User Fee Study
Of course, subsidization can be an effective public policy tool, since it can be used to reduce fees to
encourage certain activities (such as to ensure public safety) or allow some people to be able to afford to
receive services they otherwise could not at the full cost. In addition, subsidies can be an appropriate and
justifiable action, such as to allow citizens to rightfully access services, without overburdensome costs.
Despite the intent, it is important for the City and public to understand that subsidies must be covered by
another revenue source, typically the General Fund’s other unobligated funds. Therefore, the general
taxpayer will potentially help to fund private benefits, and/or other City services will not have available
funds that are otherwise directed to cover fee subsidies.
Impact on Demand (Elasticity)
Economic principles of elasticity suggest that increased costs for services (higher fees) will eventually curtail
the demand for the services; whereas lower fees may spark an incentive to utilize the services and
encourage certain actions. Either of these conditions may be a desirable effect to the City. However, the
level of the fees that would cause demand changes is largely unknown. The cost of service study did not
attempt to evaluate the economic or behavioral impacts of higher or lower fees; nevertheless, the City
should consider the potential impacts of these issues when deciding on fee levels.
Summary
City staff is recommending setting user fees at 100% of the full cost identified in this study except for specific
considerations where it makes sense based on how service is provided such as trade fees within Building
that are often coupled together when provided, or for the City xeroxing fee where the full cost would be
considered prohibitive. City and departmental goals, City Council priorities, policy initiatives, past
performance, implementation issues, and other internal and external factors should influence staff
recommendations and City Council decisions. In this case, the proper identification of additional services
(new or existing services) and the update to a consistent and comprehensive fee schedule were the primary
objectives of this study. City staff has reviewed the full costs and identified the recommended fee levels for
consideration by City Council. The attached appendices exhibit these unit fees individually.
The preceding sections provide background for each department, division, and fee group and the results of
this study’s analysis of their fees. For the full list of each fee’s analysis, refer to Appendix C of this report.

City Manager - Administrative
The City Manager’s Office serves as the vital link between the major decisions made by the City Council and
the committed, professional team responsible for providing essential services to the residents of Petaluma.
In a council-manager form of government, an elected city council serves as the city's primary legislative
body and appoints a chief executive officer called a city manager to oversee day-to-day municipal
operations, draft a fiscally responsible budget that is responsive to the community’s needs, and to
implement and enforce the council's policy and legislative initiatives.
In order to maintain fiscal responsibility and address operational needs, the City Manager presents the
annual and capital budgets to the City Council and keeps them informed of the city’s financial standing. The
City Manager’s Office is also instrumental in negotiations, both with external agencies and organizations,
as well as internal labor agreements.
Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with Administrative fees. The review also consisted
of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.
The analysis of the Administrative services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach,
whereby the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence was determined using staff time involved with
providing the service to recover the direct cost of staff and the pro-rata share of departmental costs,
including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then compared the calculated full cost against the
current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the current fee is recovering the costs associated
with the requested service. The analysis found that most fees are currently set below full cost. It is
recommended that the City set Administrative fees at the levels detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there
would be:
An increase for 11 fees;
21 fees would remain as currently set, and;
the average change in fees would be an increase of 22%.

Airport
The Petaluma Municipal Airport is located at 601 Sky Ranch Drive, on the northeast edge of the city. It is
bordered by agricultural and parks/open space land on the north and east, and by residential development
on the southwest side. Download Safety Zones here.
The Airport records about 60,000 take-offs and landings each year, equally split between aircraft based in
Petaluma and those based elsewhere.
The airport is a convenient access point for tourist travel into the Wine Country and corporate travel to
North Bay businesses. It is a hub for FedEx’s freight hauling business and home to Mangon Aircraft,
Petaluma Pilot Training Center, Cierva Aero, and the Two Niner Diner.
Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services associated with the Airport fees. The review also consisted of an
evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.
The analysis of the Airport services relied primarily upon a program cost analysis. The cost of operations
including indirect cost support from City central service functions was compared against the revenue
generated by the current fees to determine their cost recovery. The analysis found that cost recovery is
currently around 98%. It is recommended that the City set Airport fees at the levels detailed in Appendix
C. Staff compared suggested fees against other airports for reasonableness as well. As a result, there would
be:
An increase for 1 fee;
1 fee would decrease;
12 new fees would be added, and;
34 fees would remain as currently set, and the hangar fees would change from a per sq ft charge to
a total amount for each category listed but with no change in the resulting fee for each category.

Building
The Building Division is entrusted with the protection of public health and safety of all building construction
in the City through the enforcement of State and Local Building Codes. In addition to fulltime staff, the
Building Division utilizes the assistance of outside plans examination consultants to assure that plan review
turnaround times are consistently met.
The Building Division is responsible for plan review of all proposed construction to ensure that State and
Local Building Code requirements are reflected on plans. These codes include disabled access, life safety,
and energy conservation. The Building Division staff performs field inspections of all approved building
construction to assure compliance with the approved plans and State and Local Building Codes.
Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with the Building Division. The review
also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.
The analysis of Building services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build-up approach (except for
fees related to the Building Permit program), whereby we determined the reasonable cost of each fee
occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of staff and pro-rata share of departmental costs,
including indirect costs for City Central Services. The analysis found that most services are currently not in
line with the cost of providing them. It is recommended that the City increase cost recovery to 100% for
Building services as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
an increase to 27 fees;
2 fees would decrease;
28 fees would remain as currently set;
6 new fees would be added, and;
the average estimated fee increase would be around 78% for flat fees.
In addition to the above referenced fees listed under Building, the Building Permit fees are also provided
by this division. For the Building Permit fees, valuation is used as a proxy for measuring the amount of
effort needed to provide services on a case by case basis. This method is an industry standard widely used
by other jurisdictions to evaluate the cost of providing service. It is generally understood that the larger and
more complex a project is, more time and effort that is required to provide the service. Project valuation
also follows that trend, and so by using a combination of either project valuation or historical revenue
figures along with a multiplier or cost recovery analysis for historical and anticipated future construction
trends, current cost recovery along with variability in charges due to project type and scale is determined.
The result of the cost analysis completed using fee activity going back to fiscal year 2022 for Building Permits
and found that the program is currently operating at 60% cost recovery. It is suggested that the fees be
increased to raise cost recovery to 100%, which would require a 66% increase. Current and new fees are
detailed in Appendix C.

Planning
The Planning Division is responsible for all development and associated improvements on private property,
including residential, industrial, and commercial projects. The Planning Division leads the effort to
implement the City’s General Plan and enforce the regulations in the Implementing Zoning Ordinance,
Smart Code, and other adopted regulations.
The Division also serves to interpret City policies, ordinances, and codes, and works closely with the City
Manager and other City departments. Planning staff interacts with a variety of public and private
organizations and citizen groups in developing programs and implementing policies to find creative
solutions to planning issues. Planning staff develops specific proposals for action on current City planning
proposals; makes interpretations of City regulations and various ordinances, codes and applicable laws to
ensure compliance; and works closely with the City Council, citizen boards and commissions, and public and
private officials to provide technical assistance, advice, and recommendations related to urban
development within the overarching vision of the City's General Plan.
The Planning Division performs a wide range of customer service activities, including operating the public
counter to respond to zoning related inquiries and review a range of over-the-counter permits (fence
permits, home occupation permits, short term vacation rental permits, etc.). Planning staff conducts zoning
clearance for all business license application and reviews building permit application for compliance with
zoning regulations. Additionally, the Planning Division organizes and facilitates the City's Development
Review Committee.

recreational opportunities that reflect the evolving needs of our diverse population. Emphasis in working
collectively to offer safe and thriving environments to build a stronger, more resilient community. To
improve collaboration, efficiency, and service delivery, the Parks and Facilities Maintenance divisions were
consolidated with the Recreation Services Division to re-establish the City’s unified Parks & Recreation
Department in 2021.
The Recreation Services Division plans, coordinates, and implements recreation programs, activities, special
events, and classes for toddlers, youth, teens, adults, and older adults. This includes operation of the
Petaluma Community Center, Kenilworth Recreation Center, Petaluma Swim Center, Cavanagh Pool, the
Senior Center, Petaluma Historical Library and Museum, and oversight of the Cavanagh Pool and Recreation
Center. The division is responsible for planning and implementing community-wide special events;
presenting a wide array of recreation classes and camps; managing an aquatic agreement that provides
programming and pool operations; facilitates athletic field allocation and reservation calendar; and
provides a comprehensive adult sports program. The Division supports a number of citizen advisory
committees and commissions including the Recreation, Music and Parks Commission, Youth Commission,
Senior Advisory Committee, Tree Committee and the Petaluma Museum Association Board of Directors.
The Division is highly engaged in a variety of volunteer and partnership projects with several community
advocacy groups.
Analysis
Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with the Recreation Services Division.
The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.
The analysis of Recreation programs and events required a programmatic method to split the departmental
costs associated with providing individual programs and events in the study equitably. When the costs are
compared against historical and projected program revenues, the result of the analysis shows that the
department is not recovering the costs of the programs being provided. Recreation programs provide some
measure of public benefit to the residents and City as a whole. Cities generally want to ensure that their
programs and services remain affordable to the community at large, and that the programs remain
competitive with surrounding jurisdictions. Overall, Recreation cost recovery was analyzed and is to be
about 11%. With those factors in mind, staff have suggested reasonable fee adjustments to the fee
schedule, and they are detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:
An increase for 74 fees;
9 new fees would be added;
20 fees would remain as currently set and;
overall, the average fee change would be around a 10% increase and would maintain an average
subsidy level of 81% for listed fees.

Appendix C – Cost Recovery Analysis
The following tables provide the results of the analysis, resulting full cost recovery amount, and
recommended fees. For fees, services, and penalties in which the full cost, existing fee, and suggested fee
is listed as “NA,” the amount or percentage was not calculable. This is most common when either the
current or the suggested fee includes a variable component that is not comparable on a one-to-one basis,
a full cost was not calculated (for penalties, fines, market-based fees, or items not included in the study),
or when there is not a current fee amount to compare against.
