   Recommendations for Council action:
   
   
   1. RECEIVE and FILE the administrative fee study report from NBS, dated August 5, 2020, attached to the Council file.

   3. REQUEST the City Attorney to draft an Ordinance to amend LAMC Section 19.01 T. to set Home-Sharing Ordinance (HSO) registration and renewal fees at full cost recovery as shown below:
      
      

      Type of Application	Fee
      Home-Sharing Application or Renewal	$183
      Extended Home-Sharing Administrative	$982
      Extended Home-Sharing Discretionary Review Application	$14,458
      Extended Home-Sharing Renewal	$982

      
      
      
   4. INSTRUCT the Department of City Planning (DCP) to report back with an updated fee study after two full years of implementation of short-term rental activity.

Financial Policies Statement:  The CAO reports that the recommendations of this report comply with the City's Financial Policies in that fees are recommended at levels to achieve full cost recovery for regulatory activities related to the enforcement of the HSO.

Fiscal Impact Statement: The MFC reports that approval of the recommendations in this report allocates up to $18,561,775 for the project, receiving $8,590,000 in grant funds, with the requirement to provide a City local match of $5,636,667.

Debt Impact Statement: The MFC reports that the issuance of MICLA debt is a General Fund obligation. The issuance of MICLA for the Paseo Del Rio Project would cause the City to borrow an additional $2,193,154 at an estimated 5.5 percent interest rate over 20 years. The total combined debt service is estimated at $3,670,430, including interest of approximately $1,477,276. The estimated average annual debt service is $183,520 over 20 years.  Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide in evaluating the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is 6.0 percent. The City is currently at 3.58 percent for 2020-21. The issuance of debt for this project will not impact the City's debt capacity for non- voted approved debt as the issuance of debt for this project is already included in the debt ratio. In dialogue with Bureau of Engineering, the intent is to spend the MICLA funds only as needed for construction after all other funds have been exhausted.
