BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On February 21, 2001, the City of Lodi adopted the San Joaquin County Multi -Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP). The Plan includes a schedule of fees to be paid by property owners who propose to develop their property with non-agricultural uses. These fees are used to mitigate for the cumulative impacts of new development on habitat lands within Lodi and San Joaquin County. According to the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG), it is necessary for all jurisdictions covered by the Plan to adopt the annual Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) fees in order for those jurisdictions to continue to participate in the Plan. The fees are reviewed and adjusted as necessaryon an annual basis. SJCOG adopted a financial analysis model in late 2006 to calculate development fees. The Financial Analysis Model also established a formula method that provides for future annual adjustments of the fee schedule based on the established criteria. Utilizing this formula, the SJCOG has established a new fee schedule for 2013 (Exhibit A). For 2013, the per acre fees for all categories of habitat land have decreased. Open Space lands have decreased from $7,195 to $6,364 (by 11.55 percent). Agriculture and Natural lands, the two largest categories, have decreased by 11.56 percent from $14,372 to $12,711. Fees for Vernal Pool (grasslands) habitat lands decreased by 10.71 percent from $41,534 to $37,087 and Vernal Pool (wetted lands) decreased by 4.45 percent from $81,989 to $78,311. An explanation of the analysis methodology is included in the SJCOG staff report (Exhibit B). On Thursday, September 20, 2012, The SJCOG Board unanimously approved the attached HCP fee schedule for 2013. All local jurisdictions are now being asked to adopt the new fee schedule that will take effect on January 1,2013 and will expire December 31,2013. The fees will be paid by land owners who develop their propertywith projects that are subject to the fees.

Staff Report SUBJECT: 2013 SJMSCP Development Fees RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Approve the 2013 SJMSCP Development Fees as Adjusted Pursuant to Land Sale Comparables and Consumer Price Index DISCUSSION: In accordance with the SJMSCP and the updated financial analysis model adopted by the SJCOG, Inc. Board mid -2012 for current and future fee updates, SJCOG, Inc. staff shall notify each local jurisdiction regarding proposed annual adjustments to the SJMSCP development fees. The development fees are calculated using a formula method which will be adjusted annually as shown in the table below [FEE = Category A (acquisition) + Category B (assessment & enhancement) + Category C (management & admin)]. Each component of the formula is adjusted using a specific mechanism which relates to the individual component in the fees. The development fees established must be adopted by each of the jurisdictions and would become effective on January 1St of the subsequent year for projects using the SJMSCP. The result was a decrease in the fees from 2012 to 2013 shown in the tables land 2 below. i aaie i - Luis Lwivia&:r Leveio mens r ees Open Space $3,894.21 $1,568.14 $901.85 $6,364.19 $6,364 AG/Natural $7,788.41 $3,136.27 $1,785.92 $12,710.60 $12,711 Vernal Pool $34,587.00 $579.60 $6,367.41 $41,534.01 $41,534 (grasslands) $30,008.16 $590.61 $6,488.39 $37,087.16 $37,087 Vernal Pool (wetted) $30,008.16 $41,814.48 $6,488.39 $78,311.03 $78,311 Table 2 - 2012 SJMSCP Development Fees Open Space $4,770.60 $1,538.90 $885.03 $7,194.54 $7,195 AG/Natural $9,541.21 $3,077.79 $1,752.62 $14,371.62 $14,372 Vernal Pool (grasslands) $34,587.00 $579.60 $6,367.41 $41,534.01 $41,534 Vernal Pool (wetted) $34,587.00 $41,034.82 $6,367.41 $81,989.22 $81,989 Projects which participate under the SJMSCP benefit from a pre -determined streamlined processing of the project rather than navigating through a very long and cumbersome regulatory process led by local jurisdiction staff outside the habitat plan. By opting for participation, the project can choose any number of ways to provide mitigation for the impacts of the project through the plan: 1. Pay a fee; 2. Redesign the project to avoid/minimize impacts; 3. Provide land in lieu of the SJMSCP fee which the project will negotiate the easement/fee title costs; or 4. Any combination of the above options. Or, the project proponent can chose to not participate in the plan and fulfill mitigation requirements on their own with both permitting agencies. Category A (acquisition) - Comparables This category is directly related to land valuation based on comparables which occur in specific zones of the plan. This category is evaluated on a yearly basis by taking all qualified comparables in each zone, including SJCOG, Inc. easements, to set a weighted cost per acre using the same methodology as in the 2006 Financial Analysis Update created by EPS and recently updated in mid -2012 by the Habitat Technical Advisory Financial Sub -Committee and SJCOG, Inc. approval. The SJCOG, Inc. easements are evaluated using the appraised value of the property in the before condition to be included with the fee title sales of other property occurring in San Joaquin County meeting specific criteria below. The final weighted cost per acre of each zone is calculated into a blended rate under SJMSCP Fee Category A (acquisition) figure for each habitat type (Attachment 1 -Tables A -D). The criteria to determine valid comparables used in the weighted calculation are: 1. All SJCOG, Inc. transactions (fee title and appraised value of unencumbered property) 2. Sales not less than 40 acres 3. Sales not greater than 500 acres 4. No parcels with vineyard or orchard (except SJCOG, Inc. transactions for special needs) 5. Must be land which would fulfill mitigation under the plan 6. Comparable sales reviewed by Habitat Technical Advisory Financial Sub -committee 7. Not greater than 2 years old from the date of June 30ffi of each year with all acceptable comparables included (criteria 1-5). A minimum of 10 acceptable comparables are required for analysis. If the minimum of 10 transactions are not available, the time period will extend at 3 month intervals prior to the beginning date until 10 comparables are gathered. The calculation results in a decrease to the Agricultural/Natural Habitat type of Category A (acquisition) component to be $7,788.41. Category B (assessment & enhancement) - Consumer Price Index This category is a straight forward use of an average of the California Consumer Price Index (CPI) calculator, as reported by the California Department of Finance, for a 12 month period following a fiscal year (July — June) to keep up with inflation on a yearly basis. The California CPI calculation was an increase of 1.9%. The calculation results in an increase of the Agricultural/Natural Habitat type Category B (Assessment & Enhancement) component to be $3,136.27. Category C (management & administration) - Consumer Price Index This category is a straight forward use of an average of the California Consumer Price Index (CPI) calculator, as reported by the California Department of Finance, for a 12 month period following a fiscal year (July — June) to keep up with inflation on a yearly basis. The California CPI calculation was an increase of 1.9%. The calculation results in an increase of the Agricultural/Natural Habitat type Category C (Management & Administration) component to be $1,785.92. SJCOG, Inc. staff calculated the fees using the SJMSCP Financial Analysis formula model [FEE = Category A (acquisition) + Category B (assessment & enhancement) + Category C (management & admin)] which is shown in Table 1-8 and final fee table in attachment 2. The overall result in the calculations was a decrease in the fees from the 2012 to the 2013 shown in the table below. 2013 SJMSCP Development Fees Open Space $3,894.21 $1,568.14 $901.85 $6,364.19 $6,364 AG/Natural $7,788.41 $3,136.27 $1,785.92 $12,710.60 $12,711 Vernal Pool (grasslands) $30,008.16 $590.61 $6,488.39 $37,087.16 $37,087 Vernal Pool wetted $30,008.16 $41,814.48 $6,488.39 $78,311.03 $78,311 2012 SJMSCP Development Fees Open Space $4,770.60 $1,538.90 $885.03 $7,194.54 $7,195 AG/Natural $9,541.21 $3,077.79 $1,752.62 $14,371.62 $14,372 Vernal Pool (grasslands) $34,587.00 $579.60 $6,367.41 $41,534.01 $41,534 Vernal Pool (wetted) $34,587.00 $41,034.82 $6,367.41 $81,989.22 $81,989 The SJMSCP process allows projects which participate under the county -wide habitat plan to realize pre -determined streamlined processing of the project through an otherwise cumbersome regulatory process in a much shorter period of time and cost then navigating outside the plan. By opting for participation and realizing the benefits of the SJMSCP, the project can choose any number of ways to mitigate the impacts of the project through the plan. The SJMSCP allows projects to chose one or multiple mitigation options like simply pay a fee, redesign the project to avoid/minimize impacts, provide land in lieu of the SJMSCP fee which the project will negotiate the costs on their own, or a combination of the options. The HTAC recommended approval by the SJCOG, Inc. Board to adopt the 2013 SJMSCP Development Fees during the August 2012 HTAC meeting. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the SJCOG, Inc. Board to adopt the 2013 SJMSCP Development Fees.
