USER FEES
User Fees
OVERVIEW
User fees are services and/or goods provided by local government which are financed by charging the individual
user. These services and/or goods benefit only the user, hence the term "User Fee." The amount charged is,
typically, directly related to the cost of providing the service.
One of the guiding principles adopted in the budget calls for regular, justifiable user fee increases when necessary.
As a part of the regular review of operations, user fees are compared to the cost of providing the service. If a
subsidy exists, it should be justified in terms of the public purpose being served. Within the Recreational Fund and
Cemetery Operating Fund, all user fees generated by each respective fund will be committed, as defined by the
City's policy of fund balance classification and disbursement, for use of each funds purpose with the exclusion of
perpetual care revenue which will be maintained separately from the Cemetery Operating Fund in accordance with
the Elgin Code of Ordinances.
User Fees are broken down into three categories: Community Services, Regulatory and Administrative, and
Quality of Life.

Exhibit 1
USER FEES COMMUNITY SERVICES
COMMUNITY SERVICES
Community Services are those fees associated with everyone in a community, such as utilities. For Elgin, those
fees would be directly associated with the Water and Sewer Funds. These fees are commonly established to fully
recover the cost of the activity or service. The advantage of charging these costs as user fees, rather than as part
of the property tax is that the fees can be calculated based upon usage.
SEWER RATES
The following rates and fees are established and shall be collected for sanitary sewer service furnished by the city
to any user in the city:
For all properties connected to the city water system which are also served by a sanitary sewer, directly or
indirectly connected to any sewer owned or maintained by the city, a rate is established as follows for each one
hundred cubic feet of water supplied by the city or such quantity of water used as determined by the Fox River
Water Reclamation District for billing purposes,whichever is less.
For all properties which are not connected to the city water system which are served by a sanitary sewer, directly
or indirectly connected to any sewer owned or maintained by the city, rates identified below shall apply.

USER FEES QUALITY OF LIFE
QUALITY OF LIFE
Quality of Life reflects those fees which are associated with a broad array of public services that generally add to
the quality of life in a community that that all the residents do not requires such as parks and recreation
programming. These services in Elgin are associated with the Recreation and Golf Funds. Ideally, the fees for these
services are designed to cover the costs, however, at times a subsidy is provided to make them more equitable for
the entire community.
Communities have traditionally been charged user fees for some parks and recreation services and activities, but
the level of cost recovery varies significantly. Cost recovery rates for those services or activities which are
enterprise in nature or whose users have the ability to pay are often at or even above 100 percent. Cost recovery
rates for those activities which have a social service component or whose users have limited ability to pay are often
low and the majority of funding for these services are subsidized by general tax revenues. Given that user fees
have been traditionally charged for these types of services and activities, there is already a public expectation that
a percentage of costs are recovered through user fees. This also gives parks and recreation departments a higher
degree of control over their fiscal condition that administrative or central support departments.
