City Council Agenda Item Report
BACKGROUND:
During the 2006-07 budget process, the City Council adopted a resolution which
compiled all the City’s fees and charges into one document, Resolution No. 2006-053.
In the 2006-07 Adopted Budget, the City Council approved funds to hire a consultant
to conduct a comprehensive study of the City’s current fees and charges. In
September 2006, the City Council awarded a contract to Public Resource
Management Group (PRM) to conduct this study.
Over the past several months, PRM has met with City staff to calculate the actual cost
of providing each fee related activity. To accomplish this, PRM met with City staff in
each department to determine the direct cost of providing each fee related service.
Department representatives were given a spreadsheet containing fees charged by
their respective department/division and a listing of all positions in the department.
The department representative was responsible for estimating the time spent by each
position, on average, to complete each fee activity. Using the time estimates and
salary and benefit costs for each position, PRM was able to calculate the direct cost of
providing each service. This information was reviewed with City staff on a number of
occasions to ensure that the time estimates for each activity were accurate.
After calculating the direct costs, PRM calculated a factor for department overhead,
which includes costs related to operations (utility costs, administrative support,
contract oversight, etc.), department management, and support to other
departments/divisions.
Lastly, PRM calculated a factor for city-wide overhead to capture costs related to the
overall administration of the City (e.g. Payroll, IT support, Personnel support, etc.)
using the City’s Cost Allocation Plan. These three components are added together to
calculate the fully burdened cost of providing each fee related activity. This fully
burdened cost, or actual cost, is the maximum that the City can legally charge for each
fee related activity.
The actual cost of providing each service, as calculated by PRM, was then compared
to the City’s current fee for that service. PRM also provided a comparison of current
and recommended cost recovery rates for a number of California cities for which PRM
has conducted this same study. Based on this information, City staff reviewed each
fee and has made recommendations to increase/decrease a number of fees, which
are included in PRM’s Report (Attachment 1).

DISCUSSION:
As noted above, PRM calculated the full cost of providing fee based services. By
comparing the full cost of service to revenues generated by those services, PRM also
calculated a cost recovery rate for each fee activity. Based on this calculation, staff
has developed recommendations to increase a number of fees.
Staff from Building & Safety; Engineering; Fire; Planning; Police; and Parks,
Recreation, and Community Services (PRCS) worked with PRM and Budget &
Finance staff to review the current fees and develop recommendations to increase or
amend a number of fees based on cost recovery rates compared to other cities for
which PRM has conducted a fee study. The recommended increases are as follows:

Building & Safety: In most cities, Building & Safety typically has one of the highest
cost recovery rates compared to other fee related services in the City. This is also the
case in Culver City where the Division is recovering approximately 58% of costs
related to fee based services. Although this is a higher cost recovery rate than other
divisions, it is a relatively low cost recovery rate compared to other cities studies by
PRM and staff is recommending a 74% recovery rate.
Engineering: According to PRM’s calculations, the Engineering Division is currently
recovering approximately 29% of costs related to fee based services and only 57% for
the “actual cost” of the service for hourly charges to an applicant (e.g. Street Lane
Closure Traffic Review Plan). Staff recommends a 36% recovery rate for fee based City of Culver City, California
City Council Agenda Item Report
services and a recovery rate of 72% of the fully burdened hourly rate for the four
affected staff positions which provide the service.
Fire: After reviewing the current cost recovery rates for each Fire fee, staff
recommends increasing fees in three areas: 1) Annual Fire Inspections – 1 to 1,999
sq. ft., 2) Annual Fire Inspections – 2,000 to 4,999 sq. ft., and 3) Annual Fire
Inspections – 5,000 to 9,999 sq. ft.
The recommended fee increases bring the Fire Department’s cost recovery rate from
60% to 62%, which will keep them within an average cost recovery rate as compared
to other cities PRM has conducted this study for.
Parks, Recreation and Community Services:
Recreation: Recreation is a service area in which cities typically provide a higher level
of subsidy. According to PRM’s calculations, the Recreation Division is currently
recovering approximately 40% of costs, which is a relatively average recovery rate
compared to other cities for which PRM has done a fee study (see page 59 of
Attachments). After reviewing the current cost recovery rates for each program area,
staff recommends slightly increasing a number of fees (see above table).
The recommended fee increases will generate approximately $40,000 in ongoing
annual revenue and bring the Recreation Division’s cost recovery rate to 48%.
Additionally, staff indicated the possibility of stepping up Recreation program fees over
the next three to five years using a number of alternative fee structures. Parks and
Recreation staff will continue to investigate and develop alternative fee structures for
future consideration.
Veteran’s Memorial Complex: Veteran’s Memorial Complex manages the facility and
room rentals for the Veteran’s Memorial Building and Auditorium, Senior Center, and
Teen Center. Currently, the Veteran’s Memorial Complex is recovering approximately
54% of its costs. The current pricing structure allows for subsidizing facility use at
different levels, based on the classification of the person/organization using the facility.
Rental fees at the Veteran’s Memorial Complex were increased by 10% in last year’s
fee resolution. Taking into consideration last year’s increase, the facility rental market,
and the condition of the facilities being rented, no fee increases are recommended at
this time.
Senior Center: Currently, the Senior Center does not charge fees for service. The
Culver City Senior Citizens’ Association (CCSCA) collects the annual membership fee
in lieu of charging user fees. The CCSCA then donates a portion of the collected
membership fees to the City. PRM’s analysis identifies the full cost of providing senior City of Culver City, California
City Council Agenda Item Report
services and may be used in the future if the City decides to negotiate a change in the
current method of cost recovery. No fee recommendations have been included as
part of this study.
Planning: The Planning Division’s current recovery rate of approximately 15% of costs
for fee activities is relatively low. If all recommended fees are adopted, the cost
recovery rate will increase to 42%, which will generate ongoing annual revenue of
approximately $200,000|1010|.
Police: After reviewing the current cost recovery rates for each Police Department
fee, staff recommends increasing four fees: 1) False Alarm, 2) Film Permit Application,
3) Vehicle Release, and 4) Vehicle Impound Storage (see above table). Additionally,
the staff recommends increasing the Film Permit Application fee by $30 per year over
the next three years (for a total fee of $180) and the Vehicle Impound Storage fee by
$25 per year over the next three years (for a total fee of $150).
The recommended fee increases will bring the Police Department’s cost recovery rate
to 68% from 57%, which will keep them within an average cost recovery rate as
compared to other cities that PRM has conducted this study for.
The proposed resolution and exhibit (Attachment 2) with the detailed proposed fee
increases or amendments in underline (for additions or changes) or strike through (for
deletion) is included for review.
Municipal Code:
As part of Phase II of the fees and charges project, staff identified a number of fees
that are included in the Municipal Code rather than in the comprehensive fee
resolution. Staff contacted the appropriate department/division to review these fees to
determine 1) Are the fees still relevant, or are they outdated? and 2) Should the fees
be removed from the Municipal Code and included in the fee proposed resolution
instead?
Subsequent to this analysis, it was determined that a number of fees may be removed
from the Municipal Code and included in the proposed fee resolution or removed
completely as they are either irrelevant or have already been replaced by a fee in the
current fee resolution. A number of these fees have been increased to account for
inflation since their original adoption in the Municipal Code, some fees going back
|1010| Since many of the recommended fee increases are for services that are not processed on a regular basis (e.g. Zoning
Code Amendment), the potential increase in revenue calculated by PRM ($360,000) is much higher than the actual
ongoing annual revenue estimated by Budget staff ($200,000). This is also the case for a number of fees in other
divisions. City of Culver City, California

more than forty (40) years. Fees that have been removed from the Municipal Code
are underlined in the proposed fee resolution with the current fee struck-through and
the proposed fee typed to the left (Attachment 2). The proposed Ordinance is
included as Attachment 3.
With the exception of Planning, Building Safety and Public Works fees and charges
set forth in Exhibits D and H-1, respectively, all fees in the proposed resolution will
become effective on Monday, June 11, 2007. The fees in Exhibits D and H-1 are
subject to provisions of California Government Code Section 66017, which regulate
development processing fees and shall become effective on Monday, July 9, 2007;
sixty days from the date of Council action this evening.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
As previously outlined in the table above, the total estimated additional revenue (on an
annual basis) from the proposed fee increases/changes is $715,000. This amount will
be decreased if Council decides not to adopt all of the proposed fee increases.

3I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
Public Resource Management Group, LLC (PRM) is pleased to present the City of Culver City with this
summary of findings for the cost of services study for fee-related activities.
The city last underwent a detailed cost of services study more than 15 years ago. Since that time, the city
has made some minor adjustments to the original calculations
, but has largely maintained the fee structure
that was developed as a result of that study . The city is interested in accurately reporting the true cost of
providing various fee-related services, and exploring the possibilities of modifying current fees to better
reflect the increasing cost of providing services over time. In October
, 2006, the city contracted with PRM
to perform this cost analysis using the adopted 2006
/2007 fiscal year budget and staffing information. Fees
should be reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted in accordance with established city policies on user fee
cost recovery.
This report is the culmination of the past seven months of work between PRM and city management and
staff.
PRM would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge all city management and staff who
participated on this project for their efforts and coordination. Their responsiveness and continued interest
in the outcome of this study contributed greatly to the success of this study.
STUDY SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
This study included a review of fee-for-service activities within the following departments:
n
Community Development Department - Planning and Building Safety
n Public Works Department - Engineering and Street Maintenance
n
Parks, Recreation , and Community Services Department
n
Police Department
n
Fire Department
The study was performed under the general direction of the Administration
/Budget & Finance Department
with the participation of the above -mentioned departments . The primary goals of the study were to:
n
Define what it costs the city to provide various fee-related services.
n
Determine whether there are any opportunities to implement new fees.
n
Identify service areas where the city might adjust fees based on the full cost of services and other
economic or policy considerations.
n Develop revenue projections based on recommended increases
(or decreases) to fees.
n
Provide a comparison of what other jurisdictions are charging for similar services.
The information summarized in this report addresses each of these issues and provides the City of Culver
City with the tools necessary to make informed decisions about possible fee adjustments and the resulting
impact on general fund revenues.
Page 1STUDY FINDINGS
While the purpose of this study is to identify the cost of fee-related activities, one of the outcomes of the
analysis is a complete picture of the full cost of all services provided. It's necessary to identify all costs,
whether fee-related or not, so that there is a fair distribution of all citywide and departmental overhead
costs (discussed in the following section of this report) across all activities, thereby ensuring a definitive
relationship between the cost of the service and the fee that is charged. No service should be burdened
with costs that cannot be directly or indirectly linked to that service.
Therefore the first task in this study is to separate the fee-for-service activities from the non-fee activities.
Some non-fee related activities are appropriately funded by general fund monies (or other special revenue
sources), such as most public safety services or capital improvement projects. The costs of these other
services are identified and set aside from the user fee services.
Exhibit I below displays the split of the total costs of each department (including citywide and departmental
overhead) or program into either user fee-related or other service costs. It may be seen that of the $63.2
million in total costs analyzed, $12.0 million (or 19%) of that total is related to user fee services. It is this
$12.0 million that is the focus of this study and this represents the total potential of user fee-related
revenues for the City of Culver City.

Grand Total: $63,208,127 $12,024,482 19% $51,183,645 81%
The next step in the process is to identify the source of funds for the user fee services. Exhibit II on the
following page breaks down the $12.0 million in user fee services between costs that are recovered through
current user fee charges and costs that are subsidized by the general fund. Overall, the city is experiencing a
45% cost recovery level for its fee-related services. Within each department, current cost recovery levels
range from 6% for Senior Services to 60% for Fire. At the individual program or service level, individual
fee recoveries range from 0% to a slight over-recovery of costs for selected fees. The information about
individual fees may be found in subsequent sections of this report.

Exhibit II indicates that the general fund is subsidizing fee activities by just over $6.6 million.
This $6.6
million represents a "window of opportunity" for the city to increase fees and general fund revenues, with
a corresponding decrease in the subsidization of services. While it is not likely (nor would PRM
recommend) that the city completely recover all costs for fees, it is possible for the city to implement
moderate increases to current fees and implement new fees for some services.
The study's primary objective is to provide the city's decision-makers with basic data needed for setting fees.
This report details the full cost of services and presents proposed fees and projected revenues based on
recommended user fee cost recovery levels. Each department made its own recommendations for fee
increases (or decreases) based upon careful consideration of the results of the cost analysis, historical cost
recovery levels, and the elasticity of demand unique to each department's services.
Exhibit III on the following page summarizes the report's financial analysis of the city's user fee program. It
is estimated that adoption of the recommended cost recovery policy would increase the specified fee
revenue by $1,107,877 (a 21% increase over the current revenue total). This would bring the overall cost
recovery level up to 54%. It should be noted however, that this projected revenue figure includes revenues
for services that do not occur on an annual basis. Some services are provided very sporadically and
revenues (and costs) should be adjusted downward to reflect the fact that they will not provide a
predictable revenue stream (the study included an annual volume of "1" in order to determine cost and
corresponding fee adjustments). Therefore, a more realistic picture of projected revenue for user fees set at
recommended levels is $715,000.

potential revenues for services that are provided on a sporadic basis.
METHODOLOGY
A cost of service study analyzes two components of costs: the direct costs associated with providing each
fee-for-service activity, and the indirect costs that support these activities. A brief discussion of each of these
components follows.
Direct Costs. The direct costs associated with fee-for-service activities were analyzed in great detail in this
study. PRM worked closely with staff and management within each of the six departments to develop the
analysis that is summarized in the following sections of this report. The fiscal year 2006/2007 adopted
budget was used to identify direct costs.
The first step in the process was to identify staff time spent directly on each of the user fee activities. Each
staff person that participates in the user fee services identified time spent to complete each task associated
with all user fee services. Annual volume statistics were also gathered in order to develop total annual
workload information. Salary and benefit dollars were assigned to the time estimates to come up with the
direct staff costs.
Indirect Costs . A proportionate share of other operating expenses and internal department administrative
costs were layered onto the direct costs as a departmental overhead. Citywide overhead costs coming from
the cost allocation plan (described below) were also added in as indirect overhead. Finally, crossover direct
costs were added in as necessary (e.g. some Planning and Engineering staff costs were added to Building
staff costs to assist with various programs.). These three components of indirect costs: 1) departmental
overhead, 2) citywide overhead , and 3) crossover direct costs are added to the direct costs to total up to
the full cost of providing each service . The cost of each activity is then compared to the fee currently
charged, and an under- or over-recovery of costs is identified.
Page 4
7Cost Allocation Plan. Many of the costs that support all city programs and services are budgeted in
centralized activities such as 1) Accounting , which provides payroll and accounting support, 2 ) Building
Maintenance, which provides building maintenance and custodial services , and 3) Personnel, which
provides human resource services . The costs of these activities and other centralized services are considered
indirect overhead that support fee-for-service activities as well as other programs and functions within the
city.
In addition to this user fee analysis, PRM developed an indirect cost allocation plan that identifies and
distributes these indirect costs to all operating programs and functions within the city's organizational
structure.
The cost allocation plan takes a detailed approach to analyzing indirect costs. PRM develops the
cost allocation plan annually, to determine:
n What indirect support functions are provided (e.g. payroll, legal services , City Hall building
maintenance, etc),
n
How to allocate centrally budgeted personnel and other operating expenses into these functions,
n
Which departments receive benefit from these services (e.g. payroll services benefit all departments
that have budgeted staff, City Hall building maintenance benefits all departments that occupy space
at City Hall), and
n
What is the best method of allocating these costs to the users (e.g. payroll services are allocated
based on the number of payroll transactions processed for each department).
The end result of this analysis is the allocation of all indirect costs to all operating departments and
programs. The indirect costs are then added to the direct costs to determine the full cost of
all city
operations - whether fee-related or not. This accounting
exercise is important in that it can result in an
increase in general fund revenues for reimbursement of support to enterprise and internal service funds,
state or federally funded programs , and user fee services.
ECONOMIC & POLICY CONSIDERATIONS
Calculating the true cost of providing city services is a critical step in the process of establishing user fees and
corresponding cost recovery levels. But although it is the most important factor, others must also be given
consideration. City decision-makers must also consider the effects that establishing fees for services will have
on the individuals purchasing those services as well as the community as a whole. The following economic
and policy issues help illustrate these considerations.
n It
may be a desired policy to establish fees at a level that permits lower income groups to
participate in services that they might not otherwise be able to afford.
n
A consideration of community-wide benefit versus specific benefit should be considered for certain
services (e.g. teen after-school programs).
n In conjunction with the second point above, the issue of who is the service
recipient versus the
service driver
should also be considered. For example, code enforcement activities benefit the
community as a whole, but the service is driven by the individual or business owner that violates
city code.
n Elasticity of demand is a factor in pricing certain city services; increasing the price of some services
results in a reduction of demand for those services, and vice versa. For example, most youth and
senior programs are extremely price-sensitive and significant increases to current fees will likely
result in a significant reduction in demand for those programs.
Page 5n Public sector agencies have a monopoly on providing certain services within its boundaries, such as
development-related services. However, other services such as recreation programs may be
provided by the private sector, and therefore demand for these services is highly dependent on
what else may be available at lower prices.
n Pricing services can encourage or discourage certain behaviors. Some examples of this would be to
establish a low fee for a water heater permit to encourage homeowners to ensure their water
heater is properly installed, or setting false alarm response fees on an incremental scale to
discourage multiple false alarms.
n It may be impractical to establish a cost recovery system for some services or the collection of fees
may be costly and difficult to administer. Many fees that are charged after a service has been
provided fall under this category, e.g. DUI response fees, false alarm response fees, code
enforcement violations, etc.
REPORT ORGANIZATION
Following are report Sections II through VI which present findings and recommendations for each
department analyzed. Each section contains a summary showing current fees, total costs and recommended
fees on a per-unit basis, total department costs, revenues and subsidy data for each activity. Additional
revenues, based on the study's recommendations were calculated.
Sections II - VI are structured using the following format:
Findings and Recommendations . This is a brief overview of the results of the cost analysis. Any findings of
note (recommendations, limitations on what the city can charge, new fee proposals, etc) are discussed here.
Per Unit Information . This summary sheet provides information about each fee area analyzed within each
department or division. This spreadsheet shows the annual volume of activity, the fee currently charged,
the full cost calculated, the resulting cost recovery level, and current subsidy (or over-charge). The last three
columns on the right display information about recommended fee increases or decreases. Typically, PRM
works with the department management and staff to review the results of the cost analysis and use this
information together with various economic and policy considerations to develop realistic, achievable fee
adjustments.
Total Department Information. This summary sheet reviews the same fee information and
recommendations identified in the per unit information sheet, but annualizes the cost/revenue projections
by multiplying that information by the annual volume of activity.
Section VII displays fully burdened hourly rates for all staff within the departments analyzed. The final
section shows the results of a comparison survey developed for this study.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
c III.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
This study included an analysis of two general fund divisions within the Community Development
Department - Planning and Building Safety.
PLANNING
The Planning Division provides services related to land use within the city limits. This includes
: processing
of all zoning and land use applications , the preparation of special studies associated with long-range land
use objectives ,
and working with the development community to facilitate new projects
. The total cost of
all Planning services (including non-fee services) is $2,171,689.
The total costs are comprised of the following components
: 1) $957,658 in direct salary and benefit
expense (43%), 2) $141 ,221 in materials and supplies (6%), 3) $201 ,619 in departmental administration
(9%), and 4) $ 911,991 in citywide overhead and crossover user fee support (41%).
The following is a review of findings and recommendations.
n Fee-for-service costs total $1 ,
294,098 and are offset by current revenues of $190,358. This
translates into an overall user fee cost recovery rate of just under 15%.
n
PRM has performed many user fee analyses for planning fees and finds this to be on the lower end
of typical cost recovery levels.
n
The Planning Division would like to increase many of the fees, which would bring the fee service
recovery level to approximately 42%. These increases could lead to a potential increase in revenue
of $359 ,448. However, as mentioned earlier in the first section of this report , many of these
services are not provided on a routine basis . A more realistic projection for increased revenue is
closer to $200,000.
n
The range of current cost of service recovery levels for individual fees is from 1% to 227%.
n
The majority of fee increases are targeted at a 50% cost recovery level, with a small number set at
25%, 75 % or 100%.
All appeal fees are recommended to be set at a 15% cost recovery level.
n
Recommendations have been made with the idea to align fees more closely to other Westside
jurisdictions , as
well as targeting fees with a higher volume of activity in order to generate more
revenue.
n Distinctions
have also been made between community and personal benefit , in terms of
recommended increases.
The following six pages displays the cost analysis in two forms ; pages 8-10 is a per-unit summary and pages
11-13 display the same information in a yearly summary.

-.4BUILDING SAFETY
The Building Safety Division provides inspection and plan checking services for all development within the
city limits . Inspection staff also performs some code enforcement services (in conjunction with the Fire
Department and City Attorney ' s Office). The total cost of all services comes to $2 ,065,268.
Approximately 92% of these costs ($ 1,894,564) are associated with fee -related services.
The following is a breakdown of the total cost of the division : 1) $1,223,855 for salary and benefits (59%),
2) $105.199 for maintenance and operating expense (5%), 3) $258,294 for department administration
(13%), and 4) $ 477,920 for citywide overhead and crossover user fee support (23%).
Unlike most other fees charged by other departments , there are very few "fixed" or per-unit fees charged
for building permits . Instead, each permit fee is calculated based on the construction valuation and the
square footage of the project. Many local jurisdictions use valuation tables regularly published by Building
Standards to determine construction valuation (based on occupancy and type ) and rate tables published in
the Uniform Building Code (UBC), California Building Code (CBC) or the International Building Code (IBC)
rate tables . These rate tables are updated every three years and are published in the Building S*afetyJournaL
Since the early 1990's local jurisdictions have been concerned with the issue of establishing a relationship
between the cost of service and the fees charged for those services , with particular emphasis on building
permit fees . In 1993 the State of California Office of the Attorney General issued an opinion (No. 92-506),
addressing both the question of whether local agencies may charge building permit fees which exceed the
cost of providing the service , and whether the rate tables are a valid method of calculating fees . In essence
the Attorney General ' s opinion states that 1 ) local agencies are prohibited from charging fees in excess of
cost unless the fees are approved by a vote , and 2) the rate tables may not be used unless the local agency
can establish a relationship between the fees charged and the cost of providing the service.
The City of Culver City is currently using a permit table that has been modified from the 1997 UBC rate
tables to calculate its permit fees , and adjusted annually to reflect the increase in the Consumer Price Index.
This cost analysis looks at the total annual costs of providing all inspection and plan checking services and
compares the costs to the revenues received . Average per-unit fees have been calculated by dividing the
total costs (and revenues ) by the number of permits/plan checks processed annually . A small number of
services charged on a per -unit basis (e.g. property reports , appeal fees) are also listed . Page 16 displays the
per-unit information , and page 17 shows the total annual program information. The current revenue is
displayed for each service area and compared to the full cost of providing these services . A current general
fund subsidy is also displayed . The total revenue collected for all fee-related services comes to $1,094,149
and is compared to the total annual costs of fee related services of $ 1,894,564 This translates into a 58%
cost recovery level, and a corresponding general fund subsidy of $ 800,414.
The Building Safety Division proposes the city consider adopting the following recommendations:
n Building permits/inspections is currently recovering just over 100% of cost . Because this recovery
level is so close to 100% , PRM and city staff feels that it is within a margin of reasonableness and
no change is recommended for any building permit fee.
n Residential property reports are recovering slightly more than 109% of costs. Again, no change is
recommended for this fee . The cost of this service has been calculated at $82 while the current fee
is $90. The cost has been calculated based on the average time to process the report and an
additional 10 minutes of time would make up the disparity between fee and cost . It is highly likely
that this differential would come into play , thus eliminating the over -recovery of cost.
n
Appeal fees are recommended to remain unchanged at $167.45 per appeal.
Page 14 1
3Plan check fees are recommended to be adjusted to recover 100% of costs. Plumbing, mechanical,
and electrical permits are recommended at 65% cost recovery. Other miscellaneous per-unit fees
have moderate adjustments that would keep the fees at less than 100% cost recovery.
n Implementing recommended fee adjustments would generate an additional $312,804 in annual
revenue and establish an overall cost recovery level of 74%.
Should the city adopt the recommended adjustments to its fees based on this analysis, the cost/revenue
comparison may be used to calculate a factor to apply against the permit fee tables in order to adjust all
fees within its service category. The formula used to determine the adjustment would be as follows:
Revenue @ Recommended Level / Revenue @ Current Fee = Factor to apply to all current fees
For example, the formula to develop a factor to apply to all plumbing permits would be:
$175,285 / $86,324 = 2.03
Therefore if a current plumbing fee permit is calculated at $1,000, the new fee would be $2,030 and would
recover 65% of costs, rather than the 32% current cost recovery level.
Other calculated factors for adjusting permits/plan check fees to recommended levels are as follows:
Category Formula Factor Cost Recovery %
Building Permits --- No change 100%
Plumbing Permits $ 175,285 / $ 86,324 2.03 65%
Mechanical Permits $175,285 / $86,324 2.03 65%
Electrical Permits $175,285 / $106,842 1.64 65%
Plan Checking $409,789 / $361,324 1.13 100%

PUBLIC WORKS
242III. PUBLIC WORKS
User fee services that fall under the responsibility of the Public Works Department are provided by the
Engineering Division, with some assistance from the Street Maintenance Division.
The Engineering Division of the Public Works Department is responsible for overseeing the design and
construction of both public improvements and private development. Technical services provided by this
division include: project development, design, survey, inspection and contract administration. This division
is
also responsible for monitoring various city capital improvement projects.
The total costs of all engineering and street maintenance services (both fee- and non-fee related) are
$5,184,808.
The following is a breakdown of the costs: 1) $2,702,142 for salary and benefits (52%), 2)
$768,615 for maintenance and operating expense (15%), 3) $232,809 for department administration (4%),
4) $1,494,742 for citywide overhead and crossover user fee support (29%).
The total cost of all non-fee related services including capital improvement projects, and reimbursed services
is $4,627,247.
However, $58,536 of these costs is support from the Building Safety Division and could
potentially be recovered in their fees.
Fee-related service costs total $557,561.
Offsetting revenue is $139,787 which results in a general fund
subsidy of $417,775 and a corresponding cost recovery level of 25%. Cost recovery levels for individual
fees range from 11% for an NPDES inspection for a restaurant facility to 95% for two-way transportation
permit.
City staff recommended relatively minor fee adjustments to several fees, which can be seen on the
following pages. Implementing these recommendations would increase general fund revenues by $50,590
and increase the overall cost recovery rate to 34%.
Many of the fees charged by this department are charged at "actual cost" and billed hourly. PRM has
developed full cost hourly rates for Public Works staff and the department is recommending adjustments to
these rates as follows:
Position Title Current Hourly Rate Recommended Hourly Rate
Senior Civil Engineer $105 $145
Traffic Engineering Manager $105 $125
Associate Civil Engineer $100 $125
Public Works Inspector
$70 $90
Other hourly rates for all user fee staff are displayed in Section VII of this report.

PARKS, RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES
zgIV. PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY SERVICES
This study included an analysis of three divisions within the Parks, Recreation, and Community Services
Department - Recreation, Senior Services, and the Veteran's Memorial Building.
RECREATION
Program activities provided by the Recreation Division include:
n Enrichment Classes - recreational classes offered by the city which includes all age categories.
n Community Events/Excursions - This section offers community events such as Breakfast with Santa,
Youth for Service Day, Lunch with the Bunny, Egg Hunts, Tree Lighting Ceremony; and excursions
like Solvang, Whale Watching, and Spa Experience. Trips are mostly enjoyed by senior citizens.
Two camping trips for families who have never camped before are also offered.
n Parks and Playgrounds - This program includes staff that supervises the parks, issue game
equipment, oversee the picnic permits and building rentals. Staff also helps with some of the
community events.
n Youth Sports - This program includes Superstars (a sports introductory program for 4-7 year olds);
Track & Field; partnership with the YMCA for Youth Basketball; and contract Sports camps, offering
soccer, basketball, flat football, etc.
n MSASP - This is the Middle School After School Program.
n RECC - This is the Recreation Early Child Care program which is the city's after school program at
Lindberg Stone House.
The total cost of the Recreation Department is $3,599 ,374. The following is a breakdown of the costs: 1)
$1,716,650 for direct salary and benefits (48%), 2) $624, 676 for maintenance and operating expense
(17%), 3) $554,001 for department administration (15%), and 4) $704,047 for citywide overhead (20%).
Fee-related service costs total $3,318,131. Offsetting revenue is $1,294,911 which results in a general fund
subsidy of $2,023,220 and a corresponding cost recovery level of 39%.
The cost analysis for Recreation was done on a total program basis, grouping several individual services into
like program areas. Seasonal changes and the changing popularity of programs make a cost analysis for
each individual activity impractical. Page 25 displays a summary of the cost analysis for Recreation. The
recommended revenues which are displayed on the right hand side of the summary sheet correspond to the
department's individual fee increases and would increase the department's overall revenues by $138,262.
The cost recovery level would increase to just over 43%.
Page 23In addition to the recommended fee adjustments included on page 25, the department would like to
gradually increase fees over the next three to five years to get to the following cost recovery levels:

The Senior Services Division offers a wide variety of social, educational and recreational services to senior
adults in the community. Programs offered include:
• Senior Recreation
n Senior Education
n Community Information and Referrals
n Social Services (including homeless services)
n Health Fair
n Senior Nutrition Services (including home delivered meals and congregate meals)
n Paratransit Services (taxi coupon program, Dial-A-Ride program)
n Disability Services
n Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP)
The total cost of the Senior Services Division is $2,471,102. The following is a breakdown of this cost: 1)
$1,294,772 for direct salary and benefits (53%), 2) $350,642 for maintenance and operating expense
(14%), 3) $274,431 for department administration (11%), and 4) $540,587 for citywide overhead (22%).
The majority (85%) of the programs above are partially funded by grant monies, and otherwise supported
by the general fund. Grant- and other non-fee related program costs total $2,101,798 and are partially
offset by grant revenues totaling $602 ,679. The general fund supports the remaining costs of $1 ,499,119.
Recreation and education programs such as seminars, classes and special events do not have any fees
currently charged. The City of Culver City has a rather unique situation for these services in that there is a
Culver City Senior Citizens' Association (CCSCA) that collects an annual membership fee in lieu of charging
user fees . The CCSCA then passes some of this membership revenue to the city as a donation to partially
offset the cost of providing what PRM typically sees are fee -related services. Fee-related service costs total
$369,303. Offsetting revenue (including memberships and donations only) is $21,337 which results in a
general fund subsidy of $347,966 and a corresponding cost recovery level of 6%. It should be noted that
total membership and donations revenue for FY 2006/2007 is $43,200; $21,863 is allocated to the non-fee
generating programs (Social Services , Human Services , and Programs for the Disabled).
The city has historically elected to continue this relationship between the CCSCA and the department -
making a conscious decision not to collect its own fees for providing senior programs. Therefore, this study
does not include any recommendations for revenue adjustments. However, the department has put
together a number of options for increasing revenues , as follows:
n
Establish an MOU with the CCSCA to achieve a pre -determined cost recovery percentage.
n The MOU can determine the percentage splits for membership, programming, parking, and
excursions to achieve the desired cost recovery.
n If the amount of funds being generated are insufficient, then the CCSCA Board of Directors can
elect to generate further funds by:
v Increasing the annual membership fee
v Establishing fees for special interest classes
v Establishing fees for senior groups that meet at the center
v Establishing annual fundraising events
n Recreation Services can begin providing contract classes after hours for classes targeting this age
group.

which results in a general fund subsidy of $554,564 and a corresponding cost recovery level of 54%.
The cost analysis for the Veteran's Memorial Complex was done on a total annual basis, grouping the cost
of all rentals by building, and comparing costs to total annual revenues received . The department is not
recommending any adjustments to rental fees at this time . The current cost recovery level is fairly good,
given the fact that the city has made a decision to subsidize rental rates for non-profit agencies, other city-
sponsored user groups, and, to a lesser degree , Culver City residents and businesses.
The summary sheet on the following page displays the cost/revenue comparison by building.

FULLY BURDENED HOURLY RATESVII. FULL COST HOURLY RATES
In addition to the individual fee calculations , fully burdened hourly rates were developed for all staff within
each function analyzed . These hourly rates were calculated to include staff salary and benefits,
proportionate service and supply costs , internal department administration, and citywide overhead costs.
These rates (found on the following pages) may be used to determine fees for services that don't lend
themselves to a fixed , or average , cost analysis, but are better charged on an actual time-and-expense basis.
They can also be used to determine fees for services or programs that may be developed at a later date.

COMPARISON SURVEYSVIII. COMPARISON SURVEY
An analysis of the cost of user fee services is typically accompanied by a comparison of similar fees charged
by neighboring agencies . This information is of interest to the city ' s decision-makers when considering cost
recovery levels and the public ' s perception of both service delivery and value . However , it should be
noted that there are some limitations inherent in this type of a comparison:
n It may be difficult to determine similar services based on fee title - fees may be titled differently, or
fees with the same title may actually be for fairly different services.
n
It is unknown if other cities have recently undergone a cost of services study to determine full cost.
It is unknown whether other cities have cost recovery policies that set fees at levels that do not
reflect full cost.
Because of these inherent limitations, the city's decision -makers should use caution when considering
comparison surveys as an additional tool to help them in pricing services. One way to address these issues
is to make comparisons of cost recovery levels , both current and recommended , where the analysis of costs
and inclusion of all levels of overhead is similar.
On the following page , PRM has provided a matrix of cost recovery levels for agencies that have recently
undergone the same study process.
