Re: Health Permit Fees Increase ra . R32S
Annually we evaluate the Health Department's permit fee schedule through a process of reviewing
program costs and revenues, determining the consumer price index (CPI) changes for the preceding
year, and comparing Vernon health permit fees with the fees of other local environmental health
jurisdictions (Los Angeles and Orange Counties, and the Cities of Long Beach and Pasadena). The
process is intended to assess the department's financial balance, consider inflationary aspects, and
identify significant disparities between Vernon's fees and the fees charged by the other local
jurisdictions. In the past, when program costs changed significantly or large disparities were noted
with other local jurisdictions, we have requested the adjustment of fees to levels that were
appropriate, yet remained slightly below those of other jurisdictions. Past requests resulted in having
our health permit fees increased by 7% in 2006, 8% in 2005 and 5% in 2004.
This year's review generated the following results:
Health Department operational expenditures and funding for Fiscal Year (F)() 06-07
Expenditures as of 4-30-07 (83.3% of year) $882,367
Expected expenditures to complete FY 06-07 (16.7%) 17$ 6,473
Total expected expenditures for FY 06-07 $1,058,840
Permit Fee Revenue collected $54.9,047
Grants $25,000
Total Fees and Grants $574,047
Balance <$484,793>
The balance indicates that the Health Department's operations are underfunded by 46%. However, it
should be noted that there is additional revenue (Solid Waste Hauler Franchise fees) that is collected
by the Health Department that is not directly related to inspection services. In addition, there are
other fees (Hazardous Waste and Solid Waste Business License fees) that are deposited in the
General Fund because the City maintains a Health Department. The following is a listing of
significant amounts of non -operational yearly revenues that are related to the Health Department, but
go directly into the General Fund:
Solid Waste Hauler Franchise Fees $900,000
Fund 60 Business License Tax (Haz. Waste) $23,000(Health portion)
Solid Waste Processing Business License Tax $280,000
Consumer Price Index (CPI)
Publications indicate the CPI during the last year increased by 3.8%.
Fee Comparison with Other Local Jurisdictions
A chart showing how our fees compare with other local jurisdictions is attached. The chart shows
that other jurisdictions consistently have higher fees. Informal discussions with several administrators
from these jurisdictions indicate that they are forecasting a 10% increase in their fees this year.
Recommendation
After considering all the factors in this year's review, I recommend a 5% increase this year is to
incrementally address the underfunding of Health Department operations. The new fees can be
reasonably applied to Vernon businesses, and stay within mandated guidelines that limit permit fees
for certain programs to actual costs of providing the programs.
I am including a table showing our current fees and the proposed increased fees for the coming fiscal
year. A copy of the previous fee resolution is also attached.
The effective date of the new fees would be July 1, 2007. In order to have the proposed fees
approved, a public hearing is required. Please advise me of an appropriate date for the public
hearing before the City Council. Once a schedule is established, our department will proceed with
public posting and publication. I will forward the affidavits of posting and publication at a later date.
Please let me known if you have any questions, need further information, or would like to discuss any
related issues.
