15.1

REPORT - APPROVAL OF RATE INCREASE OF 3.4% FOR

RESIDENTS OF THE CITY OF SANTA ROSA WHO UTILIZE

RECOLOGY SANTA ROSA (RECOLOGY SONOMA MARIN),

EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2025

BACKGROUND: The City of Santa Rosa grants Recology Sonoma

Marin (Recology) an exclusive franchise agreement for the collection

and hauling of solid waste, including the three main streams of

recycling, landfill, and organic waste. The City awarded this agreement

to Recology Sonoma Marin in November of 2017 through a competitive

process. Any rate increase for Santa Rosa Recology customers is

subject to City oversight. Staff requested a detailed rate review to

ensure Recology is appropriately compensated, but also to ensure

Santa Rosa’s residents’ refuse rates are competitive.

Public Works Department that the Council, by motion, approve a 3.4%

rate increase for City of Santa Rosa customers of Recology Sonoma

Marin effective January 1, 2025.

REPORT - AFFORDABLE HOUSING CAPITAL FACILITIES FEE PILOT

PROGRAM

BACKGROUND: Development impact fees provide a mechanism for

new development projects to contribute financially to the cost of

improving and expanding the public infrastructure and facilities needed

to accommodate that development. Impact fees are commonly used by

local agencies throughout California and in many other states as one of

many funding sources for capital improvement programs. Impact fees

are a one-time, non-recurring revenue source that is typically collected

at the completion of a private development project. While development

impact fees are necessary to support public infrastructure, the payment

of impact fees may constitute a barrier for the construction of affordable

housing. The Planning and Economic Development Department has

analyzed the existing impact fee program, progress of housing

development, and researched other jurisdictions’ responses to this

issue, and will present the Affordable Housing Capital Facilities Fee

Pilot Program. The program proposes to set the Capital Facilities Fee

for certain deed restricted affordable units to zero dollars for a limited

period of time to encourage affordable housing development and

achievement of the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation

requirements.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and

Economic Development Department that the Council, by resolution,

adopt an Affordable Housing Capital Facilities Fee Pilot Program

reducing the Capital Facilities Fee for certain deed restricted affordable

residential unit types to encourage the near-term development of

specific affordable housing units needed to comply with the Regional

Housing Needs Allocation.

Gabe Osburn, Director - Planning and Economic Development,
