TOWN OF LOS GATOS FEE SCHEDULE
The following Fee Schedule is effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, unless updated by
the Town Council. The Fee Schedule will be adjusted annually by the average Consumer Price
Index (Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor for the San Francisco/Oakland/San
Jose Metropolitan Statistical Area) for the calendar year and/or by the percentage increase in
actual operating costs for the current year — whichever is greater. For FY 2024-2025, the fees
are adjusted by 3.5% CPI. This Fee Schedule also provides for minimum annual adjustments for
those fees that are directly related to personnel costs. Other adjustments may be made to
maintain consistency with the surrounding municipalities within the Town of Los Gatos region
but in no case are fees charged in excess of service delivery costs.
