1 Fees and Charges Report Date: June 1, 2026 To: City Council Through: Michael Kennington, Deputy City Manager, Chief Financial Officer From: Brian A. Ritschel, Office of Management & Budget Director Subject: Citywide Administrative Updates to Schedule of Fees and Charges Purpose and Recommendation The Office of Management & Budget recommends administrative updates to various departmental Fee & Charges schedules, including renaming a fee and moving fees between departments. Background The Office of Management & Budget gathers information from all departments on desired updates to Fees & Charges Schedules on an annual basis. Departments recommend these updates in their own report. There are several clean-up items/adjustments that need to be made that the department would like to present as a whole for review. Discussion Departments that have minor updates to fee schedules, with no fiscal impact, include: • Community Services – Animal Control Division (Exhibit A) Copy the associated Animal Control fees from the Police Fee Schedule to the newly created Community Services Fee Schedule. Animal Control previously fell under Police, so its fees were listed in the Police Fee Schedule. It now operates under Community Services and provides services separate from Police. • Business Services – Revenue Collection Operations (Exhibit B) Move all Alarm Fines, Fees, and Assessments from the Police Fee Schedule to the Business Services Fee Schedule, as Business Services has administered and charged these fees for nearly a decade. • Mesa Fire & Medical (Exhibit C) Update the reference of ‘MVA’ to ‘911 Recording’ in ‘Fire Investigations, MVA, etc. under Photos/CD. Mesa Fire & Medical (MFMD) has never charged for MVA photos on CDs, and this correction is necessary to accurately reflect the documents MFMD provides. 2 • Mesa Police Department (Exhibit D) Rename the Police Fee Schedule title, delete fee, and move fees under the appropriate departments. o Rename the schedule from ‘Police, City Prosecutor’s Office & Animal Control Division’ to just ‘Police’. o Remove the Video Medium fee from the Police Fee Schedule. The 2024 addition of the Police Video Recordings fee makes the existing Video Medium fee obsolete. o Remove the Alarm Fines, Fees, and Assessments from the Police Fee Schedule and relocate to the Business Services Fee Schedule. Alternatives Taking no action will result in no fiscal impact, as the departments have been operating in this capacity. Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact to make these administrative updates and corrections to the applicable schedules. Coordinated With This report was coordinated with the Business Services, Community Services, Mesa Fire & Medical, and Mesa Police Department. 3 Fees & Charges Schedule – Key Heading Configuration Schedule of Fees & Charges Department Contact Information HEADING 1 HEADING 2 Heading 3 Description of Fee Description of Fee 2 Font Indications Font Font Indications Regular Font Existing fee or language Strikethrough Fee or language will be deleted from the Fee Schedule BOLD CAPS Language is being added to Fee Schedule Bold New or increased Fee Amount 4 Schedule of Fees & Charges Exhibit A – Animal Control Division Department: Community Services Description of Service Current Fee Range Proposed Fee Range Unit Total Fiscal Impact Notes ANIMAL CONTROL Add new header ANIMAL CONTROL REPORT (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $5.00 $0.20 FIRST 50 PAGES EACH ADDT’L PAGE $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department Renaming Description of Service MISCELLANEOUS PAPER DOCUMENTS OTHER THAN ANIMAL CONTROL REPORT (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $0.20 PER PAGE $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department Renaming Description of Service PHOTO (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $10.00 EACH $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department Renaming and adding new verbiage AUDIO MEDIUM (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $10.00 EACH $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department VIDEO MEDIUM (EXCLUDES ANIMAL CONTROL VIDEO RECORDINGS) (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $25.00 EACH $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department Renaming Description of Service ANIMAL CONTROL VIDEO RECORDINGS (UPON RECEIPT OF REQUEST, NO REFUND) $46.00 PER HOUR OF VIDEO REVIEWED, PRORATED BY THE MINUTE $0 Copy from Police Department to Community Services Department Renaming Description of Service Estimated Total Annual Fiscal Impact: $0 5 Schedule of Fees & Charges Exhibit B – Alarm Fines, Fees, and Assessments Department: Business Services – Revenue Collection Operations Description of Service Current Fee Range Proposed Fee Range Unit Total Fiscal Impact Notes ALARM FINES, FEES AND ASSESSMENTS: Heading Alarm Permit: Subheading BURGLARY FUNCTION $10.00 EACH $0 Moved all Alarm Fines, Fees, and Assessments from the Police Fee Schedule to the Business Services Fee Schedule & add Unit.
