C - 5 City of Pleasanton Operating Budget • FY 2023/24 - FY 2024/25 APPENDIX C 4. Services clearly required by the payee which the City would not otherwise be required to perform. These include most of category 3 above as well as most Planning, Engineering, and Building department activities which are focused on a single transaction or incident. Not included in this category are Police activities with criminal penalties. This would include copying costs when the nature of the transaction fits this description. All accidents resulting in harm to City property would fall into this category. 5. Services which are supportive of general City service policies, but require out-of-pocket expenses by the City for the benefit of the participating individuals. Many recreation activities would fall into this category. It is the general policy of the City for these activities to pay for their out-of-pocket costs, including any City overtime involved, but not to be charged for the otherwise allocable overhead costs, indirect supervision time, or a pro-rata share of the facility being used. If the activities being offered preclude (or collectively preclude) the facility being available for general purpose use (such as swim classes vs. general “open pool” hours), a pro- rata share of facility costs may be assigned with consent of the Council. This category would also include copying costs in support of such programs. 6. Normal City services supporting all inhabitants. The City performs a host of functions, from street maintenance to fire fighting to law enforcement as part of its services to all persons and property within the City limits. These general services are funded through a variety of taxing mechanisms and should not be funded by a fee for service. The key test for this type of service is that it is applied to all persons and property equally, not to a restricted subset of the population. Programs which are specifically tax or grant funded for a specific subset of the population (such as senior citizens) are also included in this category. Exhibit I summarizes these categories and the fee rules associated with each.
