City of Pleasanton Operating Budget • FY 2023/24 - FY 2024/25C - 10 <br />the unit and dividing it by the anticipated number of hours of use it will get in its life. For example, if <br />a “cherry-picker” gets used 3 days each week for 8 hours a day and is expected to last 8 years, the <br />procurement cost would be divided by 9,984 (23 hours per week x 52 weeks per year x 8 years). For <br />example, if the units cost $50,000 to procure, paint, decal, etc., the rate would be about $5/hour. In <br />addition to this, the appropriate hourly share of the annual maintenance, gas, oil, etc., must be added. <br />An easier and equally acceptable approach for many types of equipment is to use 85% of the cost of <br />renting the unit on a commercial basis. The 85% factor is used to eliminate the profit aspect of such <br />a rate. (This approach should only be used if the City does not have similar equipment in another <br />department.) <br />6. Materials, supplies, and out-of-pocket expenses. <br /> These expenses will be included in the charges. In the case of water losses from a hydrant, an <br />estimate will be made based on pressure, size of opening, and estimated duration of the unchecked <br />flow. <br />E. PARK AND RECREATION SERVICES <br /> The City Council authorizes staff to adjust fees and charges for services and facilities for up to twenty <br />percent of the approved fees and charges without resubmitting the adjustment to the City Council. <br /> The City Council authorizes staff to adjust to provide new programs/classes at a fee based on the <br />cost of service or established guidelines, and that fees for such programs or classes be submitted to <br />the Council for approval within a one-year period from initiation of the class or program. <br /> The City Council authorizes the Recreation Supervisors or Director to continue to enter into <br />contractual agreements for program services, in forms as approved by the City Attorney. <br /> The cost of fee classes is set to attempt to return the full cost of the instructor(s) and materials plus <br />an additional thirty percent for program supervision and office support.
