RECREATION CREDIT COST ESTIMATE INSTRUCTIONSCity of Los Angeles - Department of Recreation and Parks

These instructions are only for projects proposing to provide private park and recreational facilites or publically-accessible, private maintained park and facilities per LAMC 12.33, Section H.2.

Recreation Credit Cost Estimate Sheets submitted to the Department of Recreation and Parks (Department) shall comply with the following specifications. Additional materials or information may be required according to each type of application. Application forms are available at www.laparks.org and at the Department Public Counter, located at 221 N. Figueroa Street, 4th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90012 (phone: 213-202-2682).

NOTE: An illegible or inadequate Recreation Credit Cost Estimate Sheets cannot be accepted. Include only information necessary to depict the project and its setting.

Per LAMC 12.33, Section H.2(d), privately owned park and recreational facilities shall be granted a dollar for dollar credit, for any recreational and park impact fees required to be paid for the property. The cost and subsequent credit should bear a reasonable relationship to an independent assessment of the construction cost for the facility, such as the estimates provided by RSMeans Building Construction Cost Data or similar.

Applicants must follow the following instructions when preparing and submitting recreation credit cost estimate sheet. Failure to do so will cause delays in the review of the recreation credit.

Applicants must fill out the Recreation Credit Cost Estimate Sheet (PF-3010-E) for each recreational amenity in order to receive credit using the most recent version of the RSMeans Building Construction Cost Data. Each proposed recreation amenity and the associated costs must be on its own Recreation Credit Cost Estimate Sheet. Note: Only one recreation amenity per Recreation Credit Cost Estimate Sheet and Exhibit Sheet will be accepted.

The Department will use RSMeans to verify labor, material and equipment costs for proposed recreational amenities. For a full list of amenities eligible for recreation credit, see form PF-3002-I.

Applicants will ONLY receive recreation credit for the following non-construction items and ONLY at the specified rates for 2018:

• Architectural Fees - 4.9% (Per RSMeans, Line Number: 01 11 31.10 0060)• Construction Management Fees - 4% (Per RSMeans, Line Number: 01 11 31.20 0350)• Permit Fees - 2% (Per RSMeans, Line Number: 01 41 26.50 0100)• Engineering Fees - 2.5% (Per RSMeans, Line Number: 01 11 31.30 0800)• Grading (only applicable for recreation credit areas on the ground level) - 2% (As determined by Department's

Planning, Maintenance and Construction staff)• Survey - 2% (As determined by Department's Planning, Maintenance and Construction staff)
