The City of Santa Cruz offers several services and facilities to the public. The Fee Schedule included below provides the most up-to-date fees and rate. Fees are revised annually by City Council based on inflation, indices, and studies. 

Fees are developed based on the cost to the City to provide the service or on the impact the activity has on the City or its property. Thus, the City sets the fees based on cost-recovery and not on making a profit, and rates are set at a figure below full-cost recovery.
