ATTY/RESO.0021/CC RESO ADOPTING RELOCATION ASSISTANCE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES REV: 05-05-26 LF Page 2 of 6 WHEREAS, it is the general policy of the City to charge for the full costs of services provided by City staff when such services benefit individual users rather than members of the community as a whole; and WHEREAS, notice of public hearing has been duly given, the required public hearing held on May 11, 2026, as duly noticed, and oral and written presentations were made and received; and WHEREAS, the City Council deems it advisable and in the best interests of the City to adopt the Relocation Assistance Administrative Fees and Fair Rate of Return Appeal Fee as set forth in Exhibit B, which is attached hereto (the “Proposed Fees”); and WHEREAS, all requirements of the law regarding notice and the provision of data are hereby found and met. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT IS RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDWOOD CITY AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct, and incorporated herein by reference, and each is relied upon independently by the City Council for its adoption of this Resolution. Section 2. The City Council accepts and adopts the supporting calculations and data tables set forth in Exhibit A, and finds and determines that the fees do not exceed the estimated reasonable costs required to process the relocation assistance application and fair rate of return appeal. Section 3. The schedule of the Relocation Assistance Administrative Fee and Fair Rate of Return Appeal Fee are hereby approved and adopted as set forth in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein. The fees shall be incorporated into the City’s Master Fee Schedule. Section 4. Commencing on July 1, 2026, and on July 1 of each fiscal year thereafter, the Relocation Assistance Administrative Fee and the fully burdened hourly rates for City staff by position shall be administratively revised and increased annually by a factor equal to the net change in average City salaries and benefits costs for that fiscal year. Such net change is measured by dividing the average budgeted City salary and benefit costs for the fiscal year in which the change is to become effective by the average budgeted City salary and benefit costs for the prior fiscal year. The average budgeted City salary and benefit costs for any fiscal year shall be determined by dividing the total budgeted salary and benefit costs by the expected total number of full-time equivalent employees for that fiscal year.
