Section 35.81 Findings and Intent
(a) It is the intent of the City Council to ascertain and recover the specified percentages of full costs
from fees, charges, and regulatory license fees levied in providing the regulation, products, or
services set forth in this Chapter.
(b) The fee and service charge revenue /cost comparison system set forth in this Chapter provides a
mechanism for ensuring that fees adopted by the City for services rendered do not exceed the
reasonable estimated cost for providing the services, unless otherwise noted.
(c) It is the intent of the City Council to achieve a more equitable and fair mix for financing services
set forth in this Chapter in order to reduce or eliminate subsidizing these services with general tax
revenue; thereby, allowing those general tax revenues to be used for general services, including
infrastructure maintenance and replacement.
Section 35.82 Delegation of Authority and Direction to the City Manager
(a) The City Manager is hereby delegated the authority and directed to provide documents to the
City Council to implement its policy to adjust fees and charges to recover the percentage of full
costs as established in this Chapter.
(b) "Full costs" shall be as defined in Section 35.80. In adjusting fees and charges, the City
Manager shall act in an administrative and ministerial capacity and shall consider only the standards
and criteria established by this Chapter and the applicable State laws.
Section 35.83 Schedule of Fees and Service Charges
(a) The City Manager, Director of Finance, and each City department head, under the direction of
the City Manager, shall review annually the fees and service charges listed in Appendix A-
Schedule of Fees and Service Charges, and provide an adjusted fee or charge schedule to the City
Council for its consideration so as to recover the listed percentage of full costs necessary to provide
the listed regulation, product or service as modified by the notes following the list of services.
These fees, unless otherwise specified, are for City of Dublin services and are in addition to any
charges made by any other governmental agencies.
(b) The services as listed in this Section shall be as defined in the document entitled "Cost Study for
the City of Dublin, Ohio" as produced by the City of Dublin.
(c) All fees and charges set pursuant to this Chapter and Section shall take effect as specified in this
Ordinance.
(d) The City Manager may vary the review schedule listed in the Section if, in the judgement ofthe
City Manager and a directly affected and requesting department head, a gross inequity would be
perpetrated by not revising a fee or charge prior to the next rate review. Any such special rate
review shall be reported to the City Council at its next succeeding meeting where the City Council
may revise the fee or charge by Ordinance.
(e) If fees are not collected at the time that the service is provided, the City has the right to pursue
collection of any of the fees listed in this Ordinance, including certification to the County Auditor,
remittance to a collection service, or any other appropriate pursuit for payment. When additional
fees need to be levied and collected for City- provided services in the amount of $10 or less, or when
a refund is due in the amount of $10 or less, a refund or additional charge need not be made.
(f) Should it become necessary to establish a new service fee or charge during the year, the City
Manager may set the fee administratively. Any such fees set by the City Manager shall be reported
to the City Council at its next succeeding meeting where the City Council may revise the fee or
charge by Ordinance. The new service will then be included and analyzed in the next rate review.
Section 35.84 Fee Anneals and Waivers
Irrespective of the percentage of recovery and the "notes" in Section 35.83 - Appendix A, the City
Council reserves the right to waive any fee in order to encourage development projects that enhance

Memo
Re: Ordinance No. 54 -11 - Revising the Schedule of Fees and Service Charges for
City of Dublin Services to be Effective on January 1, 2012
Summary
Attached is Ordinance 54 -11, revising the Schedule of Fees and Service Charges for the City of Dublin. This
ordinance, with its proposed fee schedule, is the annual update to Chapter 35 of the City's Codified Ordinances
which revises the current "City's Schedule of Fees and Service Charges for City of Dublin Services." If
approved, these fees will become effective on January 1, 2012, unless otherwise noted. Proposed changes for
2012 are highlighted in yellow in Appendix A. Along with this memo, attached are the "Fee Comparison
Worksheets," which show the approved fees from the past five years and the proposed fees for 2012.
The goal of the annual review of service fees is to provide information regarding the actual cost to provide the
City's services. City Council may choose to increase, reduce or modify the proposed fees.
Each City Work Unit has reviewed the proposed fee modifications in the Ordinance. The following sections in
this memo provide additional information about the most notable areas in this year's review:
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
During the past several years' review for the Cost of Services Study, the Finance Committee has had
considerable discussion about the decrease in development activity due to the laggard status of the economy.
In last year's Study it was noted that units of service continued to decrease in 2009, and staffing levels
remained consistent. City Council expressed concerns about the impact the staffing levels had on fees in light
of decreasing units of service. We identified certain fees in the areas of Development (LU &LRP, Engineering
and Building Standards) where fee increases appeared to be directly related to decreased service activity. For
those selected fees, there were no fee adjustments approved. Although units of service are lower than in past
years, we saw stabilization from 2009 to 2010. Subsequently, for 2012 we have recommended fee increases
where appropriate to recover costs. Recommendations regarding proposed fee increases, based on input from
the Work Units (LU &LRP, Engineering and Building Standards) were also taken into consideration.
Land Use & Long Ranee Planning (LU &LRP)
Overall, the volume of the units of service for 2009 residential and commercial plan reviews remained low.
Because the units of service are reduced, more of staff work time was allocated to tax - subsidized services for
special projects, such as implementation of the Community Plan and the Bridge Street Corridor Study. The
costs associated with this type of work were excluded from the costs used in establishing fees.
Building Standards
During calendar year 2010, the volume of the units of service performed in Building Standards remained low,
but steady. Direct cost recovery (defined for Cost Study purposes as actual salaries, wages, overtime,
employee fringe benefits, services and supplies, maintenance and operation costs, contracted services and any
Memo re. Ordinance No. 54 -11 - Revising Schedule of Fees and Service Charges
September 22, 2011
Page 2 of 3
other similar direct expenses incurred as a percentage of total fee income) had fallen to 46% in 2009, but
rebounded to 50% in 2010. Direct cost recovery in Building Standards consistently exceeded 100% until 2007,
when it dropped to 81 %. There has been a downward adjustment each subsequent year.
In the area of Building Standards, the Chief Building Official has been closely monitoring operating costs and
reviewing the organizational structure of the Work Unit in light of future anticipated workloads.
Enaineerin¢
Units of service remained low for Engineering in 2010. Public improvement plan review and inspection,
Engineering's largest receipt area for privately initiated and installed infrastructure projects, was down in 2010
due to a decrease in development activity. In 2010, less than $3,000 was collected. However, as of August 31,
2011, combined collections for public improvement plan review and inspection is nearly $400,000. This is a
reflection of how collections can fluctuate in the current economy from year to year.
Unlike some of the other Work Units, Engineering's staff oversees many City- initiated capital infrastructure
projects and compliance work mandated by the State and Federal government.
LEISURE AND CULTURAL SERVICES
Recreation Services
As City Council is aware, the adopted financial philosophy for recreation programs is that in general, the
recreation program will attempt to recover, on an aggregate basis, 50% of direct costs and building
maintenance costs, while recognizing that some programs may be somewhat less than that for certain reasons
and some more than that. At year -end 2010, the target cost recovery was 52.7% for recreation, up from 50.5%
in 2009. Subsequently, there are no significant fee increases proposed in annual pass dues for the Dublin
Community Recreation Center (DCRC), or program fees.
Amberleigh Park Pavilion (RC -17)
The Amberleigh Park Pavilion will come on -line for rental in 2012. Staff is recommending the fee and deposit
amount for the Amberleigh Park Pavilion be the same as what is already in place for the Coffman Park Pavilion,
based on the similar amenities. The current fee is $12.50/hour ($100 /day) for resident rentals and S25 /hour
($200 /day) for non - resident rentals, plus a $100 refundable deposit for all rentals.
Athletic Field Usage /Rental (RC -18)
In an April 7, 2011 memo titled "Youth Soccer Update," Matt Ear-man, Director of Recreation Services
committed to establish a more reflective market rate for field use fees for non - Dublin community residents
participating in Dublin -based youth soccer organizations. Towards that end, Mr. Earman is recommending a fee
increase for non - resident participants using the fields for competitive use. The proposed fee increase (per
participant) is from the current $18 to $30 per spring or fall session (from the current $36 per year to $60 per
year.)
Communitv Recreation Center — Rental Rates (RC -21)
Recreation staff researched the fees charged for use of the DCRC pool lap lanes and found that the current fees
fall below market rates of similar facilities in the area that rent their lap lanes, especially for non - resident rentals.
Consequently, staff is recommending a fee increase from $25 per hour per lane for non - resident and for - profit
organizations to $40 per hour per lane for non - residents and all other rentals. Dublin non- profit lane rentals are
proposed to increase from $15 per hour to $20 per hour per lane. These increases will not impact residents or
Dublin City School District rental rates.

Community Recreation Center — Community Hall and Theater Rentals (RC -22)
Based on patron input, the Recreation staff has recommended the possibility of extending the available rental
hours for the Community Hall and Theater on Sunday evenings to 12:00 a.m. (midnight), pending the
availability of the facility and staff. Currently, rental hours can be extended until midnight on Friday and
Saturday nights, but rentals end at normal operating hours (8 p.m.) on Sundays.
PUBLIC SERVICES
Streets & Utilities
Sewer and Water Surcharge
An annual review of the financial position of the City's Water and Sewer Funds is performed by the Finance
Department along with the preparation of the Five Year Capital Improvements Program (CIP). During the
review, it was discussed with City Council that a reallocation of user fees in 2012 and 2013 is recommended.
This entails a reduction in the water surcharge by .25 per MCF and an increase in sewer surcharge by .25 per
MCF with a zero net change to users. This fee adjustment will be included in a separate Ordinance amending
Chapters 51 and 52 of the Dublin Codified Ordinances, which establishes user fees and capacity charges for the
sanitary sewer and water systems. This is scheduled for the October 10, 2011 Council Agenda.
Parks & Ooen Snace
Cemetery
No fee adjustments are being proposed for the City's cemetery for 2012. However, as of September 9, 2011, the
last remaining cemetery lot held by the City was sold to a long-time Dublin resident.
Recommendation
Staff has reviewed the proposed fee updates for 2012 and, based on the minor changes and after consultation
with the Finance Committee Chair, suggests that a separate Finance Committee review meeting may not be
necessary. Staff encourages Council members to contact us with any questions.
Staff, therefore, recommends Council approval of Ordinance 54 -11 at the second readingipublic hearing on
October 10, 2011.
