Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
In accordance with County Policy No. 47 the Master Fee Schedule (Exhibit X), can be modified or changed with an amended Resolution to the original Resolution, on a semi-annual basis, on or about April and December of each year. The last amendment to the Master Fee Schedule was adopted on September 23, 2025, by Resolution 25-157 and took effect on November 22, 2025.
Summary of Request:
The Constitution and the laws of the State of California allow for the collection of certain fees and service charges for the cost recovery of government activities that provide a specific benefit or service to the public or are in place for regulatory purposes such as issuing licenses or performing inspections. County departments and agencies review their fees for adjustment and/or the creation of new fees to be included in the Master Fee Schedule based on the actual costs incurred to provide the service and the estimated costs for the coming fiscal year. County departments present the fee adjustments to the Board of Supervisors typically in April or December. Pursuant to County Policy No. 47, the Master Fee Schedule Policy, consideration and possible approval of a revised fee schedule incorporating modified, deleted and new fees is requested by the following County departments: Animal Care, Clerk of the Board, County Counsel, Facilities and Fleet, and Library. The Executive Office has prepared a memorandum to the Board of Supervisors regarding Proposed Changes to the County Master Fee Schedule. Finally, Departmental representatives will be in attendance to present the requested fee modifications and respond to Board inquiry.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve the proposed fee schedule; or request departments to provide additional information prior to taking action.
