With its origin as a center for ranching perched among a landscape of rolling hills in the East San Gabriel Valley, Diamond Bar became one of the first master planned communities in Los Angeles County dating back to 1956, and has grown since that time to be known for its friendly country-living atmosphere, abundant open spaces, exceptional public facilities, well-maintained parks and hiking trails, and excellent schools. In 1989, Diamond Bar became the 86th city in Los Angeles County. Today, Diamond Bar covers 14.9 square miles and is home to 57,177 residents. Diamond Bar is bounded by the cities of Industry and Pomona to the north, Chino Hills to the east, and unincorporated Los Angeles County to the south and west. With convenient access to the SR-57 and SR-60 freeways, Diamond Bar is within 30 miles driving distance of the cities of Los Angeles, Riverside, and Irvine, making it a desirable destination to live and work. The Industry Metrolink Station Citywide Fee Study & Cost Allocation Plan January 25, 2024 4 | Pa ge lies on the City’s northern border, providing east-west transit connections to Los Angeles and Riverside. 3.PROJECT BACKGROUND The City of Diamond Bar's Citywide Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan is a comprehensive undertaking aimed at enhancing the fiscal sustainability and equitable distribution of financial resources within the community. In response to the City's evolving needs and growth, this project seeks to evaluate and adjust various fees and charges, ensuring they align with the cost of services provided by the City. By conducting this study, the City of Diamond Bar aims to promote transparency, fairness, and responsible financial management, ultimately benefiting both residents and businesses while fostering the continued development of a vibrant and thriving City. At the conclusion of the Citywide Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan, it is anticipated the Diamond Bar City Council will have an opportunity to review, and revise if necessary, all necessary Department Fee Schedules for consideration and adoption. The current list of Department Fee Schedules is attached as Exhibit B, and includes Building (Construction, Valuation, and Associated Permit fees), Planning, Public Works Engineering and Industrial Fees, Parks & Recreation, Administration & Miscellaneous. The updated Fee Schedule and Cost Allocation Plan will go into effect July 1, 2025. The project will need to have been completed, and fee schedule approved by the City Council, by January 2025 or sooner. The City is seeking to evaluate all cost of services provided and examine whether a reasonable relationship exists between the cost of providing services and current service fees, while ensuring compliance with the Mitigation Fee act, Govt. Code 66000 et seq., Proposition 26, Proposition 218, and other applicable statutory requirements. It is the City’s goal to have a well-documented and legally defensible cost of service plan that will identify rates that will be used to recover billable costs for services and develop fees that comply with applicable statutory requirements. 4.SCOPE OF WORK AND DELIVERABLES To be considered, proposals shall identify each task listed below and describe how the firm will accomplish each task.

The City will be implementing a new Land Management System (EP&L). Ideally, calculations will be conducive to the capabilities of the new system. 15) Prepare a report that identifies each City service, its full cost, the costs currently being recovered, and the recommended cost recovery levels.

In response to the City's evolving needs and growth, this project seeks to evaluate and adjust various fees and charges, ensuring they align with the cost of services provided by the City. By conducting this study, the City of Diamond Bar aims to promote transparency, fairness, and responsible financial management, ultimately benefiting both residents and businesses while fostering the continued development of a vibrant and thriving City. At the conclusion of the Citywide Fee Study and Cost Allocation Plan, it is anticipated the Diamond Bar City Council will have an opportunity to review, and revise if necessary, all necessary Department Fee Schedules for consideration and adoption. The current list of Department Fee Schedules is attached as Exhibit B, and includes Building (Construction, Valuation, and Associated Permit fees), Planning, Public Works Engineering and Industrial Fees, Parks & Recreation, Administration & Miscellaneous. The updated Fee Schedule and Cost Allocation Plan will go into effect July 1, 2025. The project will need to have been completed, and fee schedule approved by the City Council, by January 2025 or sooner. The City is seeking to evaluate all cost of services provided and examine whether a reasonable relationship exists between the cost of providing services and current service fees, while ensuring compliance with the Mitigation Fee act, Govt. Code 66000 et seq., Proposition 26, Proposition 218, and other applicable statutory requirements. It is the City’s goal to have a well-documented and legally defensible cost of service plan that will identify rates that will be used to recover billable costs for services and develop fees that comply with applicable statutory requirements. At a minimum, these tasks shall include the following areas of service: Part I – Fee Study 1)Conduct a comprehensive review of existing fee schedule and rate structure for all departments to determine whether the current schedule in place is consistent, objective, and encompasses all areas where fees could be charged. 2)Conduct a comprehensive review and provide recommendations on updates to the format and presentation of the Schedule of Rents, Fines, and Fees as well as the format of proposed fee changes to the public and City Council. 13 Professional Services – Non Design 1450836.1 3)Identify services for which the City is not currently charging, but could lawfully do so. 4)Meet with staff and conduct interviews where appropriate to gain an understanding of the City’s existing fee structure, practices, operations, and current and future development environment. Meetings may be held in- person, virtual or hybrid format. 5)Identify the total cost of providing each City service at the appropriate activity level and in a manner that is consistent with all applicable laws, studies, rules and regulations governing the collection of fees or charges provided for services. 6)Review/revise all time estimates included in the previous studies and capture new time estimates for new services. 7)Update annual volume and revenue statistics for all fee services. 8)Update all staffing and expenditure information. 9)Update all cross-department support calculations. 10) Compare existing recovery levels and fee for service costs, where the City is currently charging for services. 11) Recommend appropriate fees and charges for service where full cost recovery might be unrealistic or undesirable. 12) Provide revenue forecasting based on recommended fee levels. 13) Update department maximum fully burdened overhead rates for all classifications. 14) Prepare the model for gathering data and updating the fees and charges for service for all areas described above in a spreadsheet or database format that automatically recalculates as items are input (i.e. new added personnel, updated time estimates, updated volumes, etc.). The City will be implementing a new Land Management System (EP&L). Ideally, calculations will be conducive to the capabilities of the new system. 15) Prepare a report that identifies each City service, its full cost, the costs currently being recovered, and the recommended cost recovery levels. For each activity, the report should define and identify direct and indirect costs. 14 Professional Services – Non Design 1450836.1 16) Prepare a report that evaluates the impact on City of Diamond Bar revenues by fund, department or division, and in total, of recommended changes in the fee and service charge structure. 17) Advise City staff on the model developed in determining appropriate fees and charges based on program costs in the future. 18) Prepare a report that compares the City’s fee and service charges to similar cities selected by the City with, Consultant’s guidance. 19) Present initial findings and recommendations to management and adjust as necessary. 20) Prepare a report to the City Council on findings and recommendations to facilitate an understanding by the City Council and the Public of methodologies, issues, and recommendations resulting from the fee study. City staff will give all presentations to the City Council, and Consultant shall provide offline support before and after to address any questions that arise. 21) Provide final updated user fee study model and report, including supporting files/documentation. Final report shall include a process and methodology section for developing the cost-of-service amounts, and how the City should incorporate Consumer Price Index (CPI) escalators for all fees to be utilized by City staff for future annual updates, as allowed by law. Part II – Cost Allocation Plan 1)Work and meet with selected City staff to refine the project scope, purpose, use and goals of the City’s Cost Allocation Plan to ensure that the study will be both accurate and appropriate to the City’s needs. 2)Meet with staff to conduct interviews across all relevant departments as needed to gain an understanding of the City’s processes and operations. This includes where certain services and functions are performed together or shared through cooperation between different departments. Costs should be identified to they can be allocated to and tracked by the appropriate department. 3)Identify the total cost of providing each City service at the appropriate activity level in a manner consistent with all applicable laws, statutes, rules and regulations governing the collection of fees, rates and charges by public entities. 15 Professional Services – Non Design 1450836.1 4)Report on other matters that surface during the evaluation that the City should consider. 5)Prepare and deliver a presentation to the City Council to facilitate their understanding of the plan and its implications to the City. 6)Develop a Full Cost Allocation Plan that establishes the full cost allocation methodology for specific administrative overhead costs that will properly reimburse the City’s General Fund and estimate the anticipated reimbursements to the General Fund and Capital Costs. Allows for additions, revisions and or removal of direct and indirect costs so the Cost Allocation Plan can be easily adapted to a range of activities both simple and complex. Provides the ability to continuously update the plan from year to year to accommodate organizational changes. 7)Provide the City with an electronic copy of the final comprehensive review, including related schedules and cost documentation in a format that can be easily edited by City staff. 8)Consult with City staff should the need arise to defend the Cost Allocation Plan as a result of audits or other challenges.

Direct costs include those related to City personnel, supplies, services, admissions, transportation, etc. Using the above as a guideline, in those cases where the fee to be charged is nominal (e.g. $10), the City Manager may determine not to require a fee for the elective activity if the City Manager determines the administrative burden in collecting the fee outweighs the benefit of the revenue to be derived from collecting the fee.

Fee $10.00 Per Class PRR 4 Non-Resident Fee (NEW) $5.00 Per Participant *All City fees are subject to an annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase effective July 1, 2018. The CPI will be calculated using the March to March rates of the federal Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in Los Angeles/Orange Counties. (RFD) Deposit based fees will be charged at the fully allocated hou rly rates for all personnel involved plus any outside costs, with any unused portion of a deposit based fee being refunded to the applicant at the conclusion of the program or event. In certain circumstances where staff, repair, or replacement costs are higher than the available deposit, the applicant will be required to submit additional funds.
