Schedule
BACKGROUND
Government Code Section 66001 et seq. requires local agencies to provide an
accounting of impact fees charged for development projects,. Effective January
1, 1989, Assembly Bill 1600 required new accounting guidelines with. respect to
the imposition and use of such fees. Effective January 1,- 1997, -SB -1:693 further
amended and expanded the provisions of the Government. Code with respect to
accounting and reporting requirements.
The City has two basic accounting and reporting responsibilities under the
Government Code. Section 66001(d) requires that, five years after collecting, a
development fee subject to this code section and every five,years thereafter, the
local agency shall make findings with respect to any portion of ,the fee remaining
unexpended, whether committed or uncommitted. These findings must:
1. Identify the purpose of the fee;
2. Demonstrate the reasonable relationship between the fee and'the purpose
for which it was charged;
3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete
financing of incomplete improvements;
4. Designate the approximate dates on which these funding sources can be
expected to be deposited into the appropriate account.orfund..
When sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on incomplete
public improvements, the focal agency has 180 days to identify an approximate
date by which construction of the public improvement, will, begin or else is
required to refund the unexpended fees, including accrued interest,"to the current
owner of lots or units of the development project.
DISCUSSION
Included in this report is the financial information required. by the Government
Code as of June 30, 2012. The information consists of beginning and ending
fund balances for each fee category charged by the City, including interest
earned, and details of all expenditures made from these sources. - Any changes
to committed funds will be made through normal procedures for adoption of the
Five Year Impact Fee Report ,
Fiscal Years 2007 -2012

City's Capital Improvement Program and budget. For convenience, this report
covers six (6) fiscal years since the beginning of the fee program on July 2, 2006.
The City utilizes fund accounting to segregate development related fees from
other City revenues. Although the City pools its cash for investment purposes,
interest income is allocated to the various funds based on their respective cash
balances.
City staff examined the accounts to determine if any development fees collected
between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2012 remain unexpended. If all fees
collected within this period were expended, no additional findings would be
required under Code Section 66001(d). However, as shown in the following
Table 2, unexpended fee revenues for all categories of impact fees were
remaining on June 30, 2012 in the total amount of $617,998.

Revenues from the DIF program are expended as part of the City's Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) and process. The CIP is the City's operating
document and financial investment plan for all existing City infrastructure project
improvements and new capital outlay projects. The City administers its CIP
program on a year -to -year basis, ensuring high quality capital projects are being
completed each fiscal year.
The City organizes its capital projects into four major categories.
1. Transportation Improvement Projects:
Includes all street, sidewalk, traffic signals, street lighting, median - islands,
bus shelters, striping, and storm drain capital improvements.
2. Water Utility Improvement Projects:
3

Includes all water and sewer capital improvements.
3. Public Facility Improvement Projects:
Includes improvements to all City -owned buildings, and public- related
facilities.
4. Park Improvement Projects:
Includes improvements to all parks and open space areas.
The following tables list the infrastructure improvement projects within these
major categories that were identified in the 2006 fee study as needed, for future
development in the City, all costs are in 2006 dollars. Tables 3, 4 and .5.show
both the existing and future development's share of the improvement costs: The
existing population's share is referred to as "other funding sources" and
represents the share of the cost needed to remedy existing facility deficiencies:

The 2006 fee study did not identify by name any specific park improvements
needed to accommodate new development. Instead, the total acquisition and
development cost of the acreage needed for park facilities to serve new
development was given as $2,815,000. This total was derived from the acreage
of existing park land and population in 2006, about 0.7 acres per 1,000
population, and the cost of park acquisition and development estimated at
$700,000 per acre.
In addition to the above, costs were identified for noise monitoring: $7,100 ($584
for new development), and child care: $60,000 ($14,000 for new development).
Thus, approximately $10 million in improvements were identified for new
development occurring between 2005 and 2020 and approximately $80 million in
other funding sources to meet the existing population's share.
Fee Revenue Projection 2006 -2012
Table 6 below shows a comparison of the fees collected over the first five years
of the impact fee program as a percentage of what the 2006 study projected over
the entire 15 years of the program. The overall total of only 12% indicates that
growth over the last five years was about one -third of what was projected in the
2006 study.

Only park and recreation projects have received impact fee funds :since 2006.
$561,892 has been spent on the Natatorium and other park i mprovements
against $441,144 in actual park fee revenues, meaning the park' and recreation
impact fund is in deficit in the amount of $120,748. The General "Fund has, in
effect, advanced funds to the park system. The PFDIF Administration "Fee also
shows a deficit- of $5,560, although it appears that the actual 'deficit :should-be
higher. In FY 2011 -12, $130,383 was transferred to the "General Fund for
administration while only $98,298 was collected in the PFDIF and TD .IF
administration accounts, leaving an actual_ deficit of :$32;085, (see Table 2).
Impact fund interest was used to cover part of this deficit; the interest on impact
funds should revert to the funds themselves to be used for improvements.
City Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget Process
The City Council adopts the CIP Budget by utilizing new revenue sources. and
carry-over allocated funding from on -going projects for the previous -fiscal. year(s)..
The City also prepared a 5 -Year CIP covering the period FY 2012 -13 to FY 2016-
17 to identify priority capital needs and develop a strategic plan to- replace and
upgrade existing aging infrastructure over the next several years.
Revised Fee Revenue Projections for 2013 -2018
An impact fee revenue projection was made for the period: 2013 -2018 based on
the population, housing and employments forecast for Lynwood by :the `Southern
California Association of Government's Regional Transportation Plan -
Sustainable Communities Strategy. Lynwood's population is. projected to grow to
approximately 71,250 over the next five years. Housing units ,are... expected to
increase by 170, and 180,000 square feet of combined retail,, industrial and` office
floor area will be added based on an estimated 180 new workers:
Table 7 below shows a revised DIF revenue projection for the next five .years
based on the current fee rates (not including the proposed updated Civic
Center /City Garage impact fee, or an inflation increase), arid revised growth
projections. This table may be used for planning purposes to develop the next 5-
year CIP budget. The projected total fee revenues for the next five years. "(not
including interest) is slightly more than the total actual revenues" over the
previous five years.

The City's CIP program is funded by a variety, of revenue sources including
Federal, State, regional and local funding sources, in addition to being supported
by City funds including development impact fee revenues. As a result of the
City's improved credit rating over the last few! years, the issuance of bonds
contributed heavily to the financing of major capital projects. The majority of the
City's CIP budget revenue base is based upon revenue sources other than City
funds.
At this time, impact fee revenues have not been earmarked for specific projects
within the CIP budget but will be assigned and committed as eligible projects
move forward to final design and financing. It is the City's intent to expend
impact fee revenues at the time DIF - eligible improvements are constructed.
Table 8 below presents expected uses for the impact fee revenues projected in
Table 7 plus the current unexpended funds in the DIF accounts:

presented to the City Council for approval. An updated Civic Center /City Garage
Fee Study report is being reviewed by the City and may be scheduled for a public
hearing along with this report. The updated Civic Center fee report recommends
increasing the Civic Center /City Garage impact fee in proportion to the estimated
cost of the civic center improvements. The projected revenues from the updated
fees are estimated to be approximately $600,000. This updated projected fee
revenue for the Civic Center /City Garage component is not reflected in Table 7.
The updated fee report also recommends deleting Technological Enhancements
as a separate fee category and folding future technology costs and fee revenues
into the updated Civic Center /City Garage fee program.
Noise Monitoring and Childcare
Due to changed City priorities the Noise Monitoring and Childcare categories are
proposed to be rescinded. The amounts collected and the unexpended funds for
these facilities are negligible. Therefore, the funds currently available for Noise
Monitoring and Childcare, $45 and $190, respectively, may be transferred to
either the administrative account, or distributed to the other facility categories.
FINDINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT CODE 66001(D)
As stated above in the Background section of this report there are four findings
required for unexpended funds in the impact fee program:
1. Identify the purpose of the fee.
For each facility category in Lynwood's impact fee program the City
identifies the improvements or funding amounts necessary to construct or
acquire facilities needed to accommodate growth. Tables 3, 4 and 5
summarize the facility descriptions and costs listed in the 2006
Comprehensive Impact Fee Study, which established the nexus and
original findings for Lynwood's fee program. The improvements identified
in those tables, and more specifically in Table 7, remain applicable for the
next five -year reporting cycle.
2. Demonstrate the reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose
for which it was charged.
In the 2006 fee study the fees were calculated by proportionately
allocating the costs of each improvement between existing and future
development on the basis of equivalent dwelling units. Through this
procedure future development will pay only its fair share for the
improvements needed by the City's entire projected future population.
With the exception of the Civic Center /City Garage, the Noise Monitoring,
and the Childcare fees discussed above, the fee rates may remain in

effect as they will be needed to fund new development's share of new,
expanded or upgraded facilities. However, as provided for °in' Ordinance
1754, the rates should be updated to reflect the increase in the
established inflation index: the Engineering` News Report, 20- cities
Construction Cost Index for the Los Angeles Area. The increase :would be
based on the ENR -CC.I for April, 2012.
3. Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete
financing of incomplete improvements.
Table 7 lists both the projected impact fee revenues for the, period 2013-
2018 and other funding sources. The time frame of when funding is
anticipated is highly dependent on both the source and .use. of funds. This
is particularly the case with bonds and grant funding, which are typically
associated` with a specific projects.
4. Designate the approximate dates on which these funding sources can: be
expected to be deposited into the appropriate account or fund.
Impact fee funds will be deposited when receiyed: Other funds will be
encumbered into specific project accounts when the projects are approved
by City Council.
Pursuant to Government Code 66001(e), within 180 days of a
determination that sufficient funds have been. collected, the., City ,will:
identify an approximate date for the commencement of='construction of
public improvements for which the impact fees were collected'.
