DATE: FEBRUARY 20. 1979 - Cty- Atty D.AMMTMPDEPARTMENT: PLANNING SUBJECT : AMENDMENT TO SCHOOL FEE REQUIREMENTS - SAN MARCOS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT « Statement of the Matter The Council on November 7, 1978, adopted Resolution No. 5582, setting standards for the amount of fees required to eliminate overcrowding conditions in the San Marcos School District. These fees were based on rationale submitted by San Marcos District dated May 1, 1978, at that time the district assumed that the fee schedule would be enforced for approximately 1 year, because of construction industry inflation rate of 1% per month. 'San Marcos School District has now re-evaluated their rationale for fees and have asked the City to modify the fee schedule per the rationale received February 6, 1979. In the new rationale fees for single family homes have raised from a maximum of $664.00 to $1,088.00. They have raised from multiple family units from a maximum $207.00 to a maximum of $432.00. The original fee schedule required fees of $664.00 for lot splits and land subdivisions where no building permits are involved. This requirement is being deleted from the present rationale because Carlsbad collects fees at time of building permit. Also, the school district would loose money on subdivision of multiple family lots when the units are built for rentals. Exhibits Letter from James C. Ketcherside, dated January 17, 1979, with rationale for fee schedule attached. City Council Resolution No. 5582 with May 1, 1978, with rationale for fee schedule attached.

This fee schedule, therefore, is based on 7 purchasing standard size relocatable classrooms with appurtenant costs of 8 site preparation, utility connections, engineering, walkways and furniture 9 and equipment. The present cost of a classroom and attached costs is $39,500, 10 11 It is assumed that this fee schedule will be in force for approximately one 12 year. The inflation rate in the construction industry in running 1% per month. 13 Best indications at this point is that this rate will increase in the near 14 future. A modest 10% inflation factor is .included, 1516 At the present time, 10% of the district's classrooms are devoted to special 17 education classes. This proportion is increasing markedly due to Federal 18 legislation requiring programs for all handicapped students by type of handi- 19 cap. The number of additional classrooms needed for special education over 20 the next two years approximates the number needed for regular students, 2122 The district contract with the teaching personnel calls for e maximum average 23 class size of 31. This has been the practice in the district for some time, 24 Using 31 students per classroom as a divisor, the cost per student is $1542. 2526 The student generation factors computed by the San Diego Department of 27 Education for the San Marcos Unified School District are 0.77 students per 28 dwelling unit in single family dwellings and 0.28 for attached dwelling units 2g (apartments, condominiums, etc.). Accordingly, the cost to house the students 2Q generated per dwelling unit becomes $1,188 for single family units and $432 21 for attached units. 3222 It is assumed that the average single family dwelling unit in San Marcos has 2» three bedrooms, so the cost per bedroom becomes $396; $1,188 per dwelling ^ unit - 3 bedrooms per dwelling unit. It is assumed that the average attached dwelling unit has two bedrooms, so the cost per bedroom is $216. The reason for assessing the fee on a per-bedroom basis is that the number of bedrooms _0 has some positive relation to the number of children in the family, JO 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 o to _J CO § ' ° rf»"«•§!»° ic YGJ O 1 2 S rf > «= - C3; O in ' t CC i s u 1 2 3 * 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 20 RESOLUTION NO. 5582 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING STANDARDS FOR THE AMOUNT OF FEES TO BE REQUIRED'AS A CONDITION * .

Using 31 students per classroom as a divisor, the cost per student is $784. . • • * It is assumed that this fee schedule will be-in force for approximately one year. 'The inflation rate in the construction industry is running 1* per month. Best indications at this point is that this rate will increase in the near future. A modest 10% inflation factor is included. The student generation factors computed by the San Diego Department of Education for the San Marcos Unified School .District are 0.77 students per 'dwelling unit in single family dwellings and 0.24 for attached dwelling units (apartments, condominiums, etc.). Accordingly the cost to house the students generated per dwelling unit becomes $664 for single family units 'and $207 for attached units. \ '. It 1s assumed that the average single family dwelling unit in San Marcos has three bedrooms, so the cost per bedroom becomes. $221. ($6G4 per dwelling unit i- 3 bedrooms per dwelling unit). It is assumed that the average attached dwelling unit has two bedrooms, so.the cost per bedroom is $104. The reason • for assessing the fee on a per bedroom basis is that the number of bedrooms has some positive relation to the number of children in the family. » *» In some cases it is impossible to determine the number of bedrooms at the time the fee is assessed. • This v/ould be true in a lot split or'a sub- * division of land, other than a housing tract," in a jurisdiction that assesses ,the fee at the time of tentative or final tract'or parcel map approval even though the fee is not collected until building permits are issued. This ' • would not be a problem in a jurisdiction that assesses the fee at the time building permits are issued. ; . - . . It is assumed that a lot split or land subdivision will result in single family'residences as apartment houses or condominiums generally require larger lots. The fee assessed, therefore, for lot splits or land subdivisions where the number of bedrooms is not known is the fee for a single family residencel?($664) per lot. . „ .
