ESS may produce impacts to wildlife that are not currently well understood by the City; H. ESS facilities located within the L-F Airport Landing Field District may pose a significant risk to public health, safety, and welfare if an aircraft collision occurs; I. ESS facilities and their supporting infrastructure may be more appropriate for the industrial (M-1 and M-2) zones in the City due to their scale, land use, and potential impacts to life and safety of the general public; J.

INTRODUCED: PASSED: APPROVED: NANCY BACKUS, MAYOR ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: Shawn Campbell, MMC, City Clerk Jason Whalen, City Attorney Published: Ordinance No. 6995 Page 8 of 8 Rev. 2025 Page 19 of 94 CITY OF J\IJBURJ4 AGENDA BILL APPROVAL FORM WASHINGGTTON Agenda Subject: Meeting Date: Resolution No. 5860 (Whalen) October 20, 2025 A Resolution amending the City of Auburn Fee Schedule to adjust for 2026 Fees (RECOMMENDED ACTION: Move to adopt Resolution No. 5860.) Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Legal Resolution No. 5860, Proposed 2026 Fee Schedule Administrative Recommendation: City Council to adopt Resolution No. 5860. Background for Motion: The City Council passed Ordinance No. 5833, which provided for the adoption of a Fee Schedule. Every year, City staff reviews the fees charged by their respective departments and recommends adjustments based on current costs or inflation where appropriate. This Resolution would approve the proposed adjustments and amend the City of Auburn Fee Schedule for fees to be charged in 2026. Background Summary: Resolution No. 5860 proposes modifications to the City's Fee Schedule as part of its annual review process. Each department reviews its fees, rates and charges to ensure they are reflective of current costs and are adjusted for inflation where appropriate. In accordance with previous City Council direction on fees for development achieving a full cost recovery, general fees have been increased by 3% and hourly rate fees have been increased based on budgeted values for 2026 to address inflation and the typical annual increase in wages and benefits that have occurred since the last fee schedule update. In addition, a 1% increase to the technology fee was included to address the specific costs for software upgrade that are required to continue use of mybuildingpermit.com which allows for efficient management of permits and payments between the City and applicants. Traffic Impact Fees (TIF) have been modified based on the discussion and code adoption that was completed on August 4, 2025. These changes include more transparency in the factors that are used to calculate TIF, addresses the update of the Transportation Comprehensive Plan polices to incorporate multi-modal projects into the fee system, implements a district approach towards the TIF rate development for downtown verses non-downtown development, and incorporates a TIF reduction Page 20 of 94 factor for development within close proximity to frequent transit services. Overall, these changes generally result in a lower per trip fee than the 2025 fee. However, various factors may increase or decrease the final assessed fee based on the project's specific trip generation characteristics and whether or not credits apply. The revised schedule also includes revisions intended to improve the TIF program flexibility: criteria for TIF payment installation programs and fee determination approaches if the proposed land use is not listed in the fee schedule. Aside from the proposed 2026 fee schedule, the City is developing a TIF webpage and supporting tools that will improve the TIF program's transparency and predictability. System Development Charges (SDC) have not been increased at this time as the City is completing a Utility Rate Study and an analysis of the SDC's is being done as part of that study. This may result in an additional Fee Schedule update later in 2025. The updates on hangar lease rates and for tie-down rates in Section D - Airport Fees were recommended for approval by the Airport Advisory Board on September 17, 2025 The Valley Regional Fire Authority (VRFA) Fee Schedule has been updated to reflect a general 3.5% increase. Fire Impact Fees have been updated by VRFA based on an impact fee study performed by FCS Group. The study was completed to provide an updated fee methodology that was consistent with WA State requirements for fees to be assessed for residential unit proportionality. As a result of the study, residential Fire Impact Fees will now be assessed based on unit area (per Sq. Ft.) in lieu of per dwelling unit. Both fee changes were approved by the VRFA Board of Governance on July 8, 2025. SEPA checklist review fees have been updated to provide a distinction between commercial and residential to provide a more proportionate fee for single-family and middle housing projects. The SEPA checklist review fees were also generally updated to no longer include a separate base fee and additional unit cost per report or study. Depending on the number of reports/studies associated with an application, as a result, residential fees have decreased while commercial projects may see either a decrease or increase over the 2025 fee schedule, depending on the number of studies/reports associated with the project. Fees for Critical Areas Determination Exemptions and Shoreline Exemptions have been updated to be consistent with the proposed increased Floodplain Development Exemption fee. Although this results in a greater relative increase for the critical areas and shoreline fee, the scope of work and determination letters associated with each of these processes are analogous and are recommended to be assessed consistently. Temporary Certificate of Occupancy fees have been revised to be assessed based on the size of the building or tenant space area (per Sq. Ft.). This will result in a reduced fee over 2025 fees for buildings 5,000-Sq. Ft. or less. For larger buildings or spaces, the fee will increase to a maximum fee of$3,000 which would apply to buildings or spaces 10,000-Sq. Ft. or larger.

It is possible a violation existed prior to property purchase by a new owner, was constructed by an individual who mislead the owner, or was constructed by an individual who was unaware of code requirements. The fact that violations may not have been created by the current owner does not relieve Code Enforcement staff from their responsibility to seek compliance from the property owner. When assessing permit fees, consideration may be given based on the circumstances, severity of the violation, and timeliness of the property owner to resolve and obtain required permits and compliance with City code. Building Permit Fee Reductions.

WAIVER OF FEES (Per Resolution No. 5181). 1. The Mayor is authorized to waive any fees for permits, licenses, publications and actions as authorized by Sections 2.03.030, 5.10.030 and 12.60.020 of the City Code. 2. The Mayor is also authorized to reduce, and is vested with to discretion to reduce in compelling cases, by up to 50% any fees for permits, publications and actions where the applicant — the party responsible for payment of such fees — is an organization exempt from taxation under 26 US 501(c)(3), and where the permit(s), publication(s) and/or action(s) relate directly to the provision of charitable services to residents of the City of Auburn. Charitable services are defined as events or services provided to the residents of Auburn free of charge and where the City is a sponsor of the specific event or service. For the purposes hereof, "compelling cases" mean instances where there is an extraordinary need (greatly beyond current and ordinary need)for the charitable services that would be able to be provided. The intent of this authorization is to empower the Mayor with sole discretion to waive some fees in unique situations where there is a greatly increased need for new charitable services to be provided, and where the reduction of fees to the City will not detrimentally impact the City's ability to provide municipal services. This waiver does not include Impact Fees, System Development Charges, any fees related to Franchise or Public Way Agreements, Right-of-way Vacations, Right-of-Way Use Permits, Facility Extensions, Police Department Fees, Animal Licensing Fees and Penalties, Banner Permit Fees, or Cemetery or Parks fees. Page 85 of 94 CITY OF J\IJBURJ4 AGENDA BILL APPROVAL FORM WASHINGGTTON Agenda Subject: Meeting Date: Resolution No. 5866 (Krum) October 20, 2025 A Resolution relating to the endorsement of the 2026 Valley Regional Fire Authority Fee Schedule as adopted by the VRFA Board of Governance (RECOMMENDED ACTION: Move to adopt Resolution No. 5866.) Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Community Development Resolution 5866, Resolution 5866 - Exhibit A Administrative Recommendation: City Council to adopt Resolution No. 5866. Background for Motion: This Resolution would replace the current VRFA fees with the revised 2026 Fee Schedule, effective January 1, 2026. The 2026 Fee Schedule was adopted by the VRFA Governance Board on July 8, 2025. Background Summary: The Valley Regional Fire Authority (VRFA) was established in 2007 under RCW 52.26 as a Fire Authority that serves the cities of Auburn, Algona, and Pacific. As a Fire Authority VRFA operates as a separate municipal corporation, with independent taxing authority, and within an independent taxing district. While VRFA is a separate Fire Authority and is organizationally independent from the City of Auburn, VRFA continues to have a role in reviewing development proposals and conducting inspections during the construction process. Within VRFA, it is the Fire Marshal's Office that performs these functions. While VRFA has taxing authority within its jurisdictional boundary, tax payers do not fund all services offered by VRFA. In some instances there are fees charged to customers who are seeking direct service, e.g. a permit to construct a commercial building. In other words, permit customers pay a substantial portion of the direct service they are seeking, as opposed to the service being subsidized across the taxing district. Stated in yet another way, a residential tax payer who pays a portion of their property taxes to VRFA is generally not providing a significant level of financial contribution to a commercial real estate proposal or a new residential subdivision. Since the Fire Authority was established in 2007, VRFA has collected fees for reviewing development Page 86 of 94 plans and conducting construction inspections. In Auburn, VRFA fees are collected by the City and distributed to VRFA. This practice was put in place in order to ensure that Auburn could achieve a one-stop permitting shop. Instead of sending customers to a VRFA office to pay fees and apply for separate fire permits, customers can submit, pay and pick up permits at the City's Permit Center. More times than not, the customer never knows that they are interacting with, and paying, separate governmental entities. The 2026 VRFA fee schedule includes a general increase of fees by 3.5%, consistent with City of Auburn development fee increases. While VRFA is a separate agency, with a separate Governance Board that has authority to establish its own service fees, the Auburn City Council has a role in endorsing fees that are collected by the City and distributed to other agencies (similar to Council's role in reviewing school district fees and taking action to authorize the collection of these external agency fees).

Using a percentage of the jurisdictional fee as the basis of VRFA eliminates the need to adjust the VRFA fee schedule every time a jurisdictional fee changes. 2.The fee only applies to single family occupancies that require fire protection systems. 3. Hourly rebate is based on the direct costs of VRFA staff time,salary, benefits,overhead,administrative costs, and resources. Page 93 of 94 4. Includes plan review and first two inspections. 5. Preventable nuisance and malfunction false alarms exist to reduce unwarranted calls that remove emergency apparatus from service.Though there is no penalty for 1st and 2nd violations, it provides an opportunity for the VRFA to educate owners about any mechanical problems for repair technicians to correct any deficiencies that may exist. Subsequent false alarms incur a penalty in an attempt to encourage needed repairs of the associated systems. 6.The VRFA Fire Marshal is authorized to reduce any fees for permits. In compelling cases where the applicant-the party responsible for payment of such fees-is an organization exempt from taxation under 26 USC 501C3, and where the permit relates directly to the provision of charitable services to residences of the VRFA service area,the VRFA Fire Marshal is vested with discrection to reduce any fees for permits, publications, and actions by up to 50%. 7. Permits that are not completed and no project improvement are made can, in writing,ask for inspection fees to be refunded. 8.The VRFA will attemp to accommodate a client's requests for inspection outside of normal working hours. If there is not an inspector available,the request may be denied. If a client requests such inspection and the inspection cannot be completed for any of the reasons outline above,the department shall retain the minimum inspection fee and is authorized to deny any future requests.A 24-hour notic for cancellations is required for refund of fees. 9. After hours inspecton fees are charged when an inspection is performed outside of normal work hours as the client's request. 10. Fees in accordance with RCW 70.77.555 11. If an inspection for a fireworks display/fireworks sales permit is scheduled outside of normal VRFA hours for the Fire Marshal's Office, it will be billed at a two hour minimum in accordance with line 5.5. in this fee schedule.
