- 4 - <br />DESCRIPTION OF FUNDING SOURCES <br />PRCSA FEE & DONATION (PRCSA F&D) – This fund <br />is intended to hold monies received from donations from the public <br />and from employee contributions to Parks, Recreation and <br />Community Service Agency programs. Additionally, the fund <br />holds monies that are separate from the general fund and <br />intended for specific purposes, such as carnival fees intended to <br />be used for improvements at parks where the carnival is held. <br />ROAD MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATION ACCOUNT <br />(RMRA SB-1) – Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account <br />(RMRA - Streets and Highways Code Sec 2030 et sec.) includes <br />funds from the following taxes enacted by the Senate Bill 1 Road <br />Repair and Accountability Act of 2017: the 12 cent gasoline <br />excise tax, 20 cent diesel fuel excise tax, transportation <br />improvement fees and transportation loan repayments. These <br />new gas tax funding sources contribute funding on an annual <br />basis. <br />SEWER CONNECTION FEES – The Sewer Connection Fee is <br />collected from various types of development based on the <br />number of fixture units and the cost per lineal foot of construction <br />of a main sewer line. All monies received by the City as a fee for <br />connection to the public sewers are deposited into the Sewer <br />Connection Fee Fund and used for the construction of sewers. <br />Fees are paid at the time of application for a sewer connection <br />permit, and no connection permit is issued until such fees are <br />paid. <br />STATE RESOURCES AGENCY GRANT (CA RESOURCES <br />AGENCY GRANT) – The California Department of Parks and <br />Recreation (DPR) provides funding for the California Youth <br />Soccer and Recreation Development Program. Funding comes <br />from the 2002 Resources Bond Act, known as Proposition 40. <br />Grant is called California Clean Water, Clean Air, Safe <br />Neighborhood Parks and Coastal. <br />TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT AREA FUND <br />(AREA FEES) – Ordinance NS-1651, adopted in 1982, <br />established the concept of transportation improvement areas. In <br />addition, the City has executed “Joint Exercise of Powers <br />Agreements” with the cities of Tustin and Orange specifically <br />covering areas adjacent to those cities. These Area Fees are <br />charged to new development to offset the cost of transportation <br />system improvements within that area. The City has six <br />transportation improvement areas. The fee charged is based on <br />the square footage of the proposed development. The fee may be <br />changed from time to time by resolution of the City Council. Fees <br />are paid at the time of application for a building permit. <br />WATER CAPITAL FUND – The City charges a user fee for <br />providing water services to residents and businesses in Santa <br />Ana. All monies are used to fund operating and maintenance <br />costs, as well as capital improvements of the City’s water system. <br />Approximately 10% to 20% of these funds are allocated to water <br />system capital improvements each year.
