Consulting Services Agreement between C~y of Dublin and MuniFinancial December 20,2005 Page 13 of 14 \ \..Q Db -¿O CITY OF DUBLIN Richard C. Ambrosa, City Manager Attest: Fawn Holman, City Clerk Approved as to Form: Elizabeth Sliver, City Attorney ,Consulting Services Agreement between City of Dublin and MuniFinancial December 20, 2005 Page 14 of 14 Il D)-.~W L._,.j EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES The objective of this update is to recalculate maximum allowable impact fees based on an update of all assumptions in the 1999 fee report and the 2001 update to the most current available information. Facilities to be included are the same as those in the previous reports (parks, community facilities, libraries, and civic center). The scope of services by task is described in detail below. Task 1: Identify and Resolve Policy Issues The purpose of this task is to identify and resoive policy issues raised by the study. To initiate this task, we will review all documentation related to adoption of development impact fees. We will deliver information requests as appropriate. We will explain policy issues to City staff and seek guidance prior to proceeding. Policy issues include, but are limited to: · Ordinances, policies, and plans supporting the imposition of impact fees; · Land use categories and geographic zones for imposition of fees; · Method for determining facility standards and identification of any existing deficiencies; · Types of facilities to be funded by each fee, and adequacy of existing studies and plans to identify needed facilities; · Quimby park land dedication and in lieu fee; · Potential alternative funding sources, if needed; · Allocation of cost burden among land uses; and · Implementation concerns, strategies and administration. Task 2: Update Development Projections We will update development projections (current and future) to current California Department of Finance estimates and ABAG projections. There has been substantial development in the City since 1998 (the date used to estimated existing development for the 1999 study) while ultimate development projections for 2025 have remained almost constant. Consequently, the results of this task and Task 3 (see below) could substantially affect calculations of existing level of service standards. Task 3: Update Inventory of Existing and Planned Facilities We will prepare an information request for city staff to initiate this task. The request will be based on the facilities listed in the 1999 and 2001 fee reports. We will need information on existing and planned facilities such as acres of parkland by type, square feet of community building space, and library volumes. We anticipate discussing the information request with city staff to clarify what we need and to ensure that staff Consulting Services Agreement between City of Dublin and MuniFinaneiai--Exhibit A December 20, 2005 Page 1 of 2 I ß óQ,-V can complete it as efficiently as possible. City staff responses to the information request will provide one key set of assumptions for the update. Task 4: Update Facility Cost Estimates The purpose cf this task is to provide a review of cost estimates for new facilities to be funded at least in part by impact fee revenue. The 1999 study used cost estimates primarily contained in master plans prepared for the City by outside consultants. The 2001 update included actual cost data that was available for facilities completed or under construction. We will review these estimates based on the scope of the proposed facilities, our own experience with public facility construction costs, and any recent applicable city capital project experience. We will rely on the City's regular review of land costs to update this cost component. Task 5: Update Fee Calculation Model We will update the fee calculation model based on the results of the prior tasks. We will review the assumptions related to the calculation of separate fees for East Dublin, West Dublin, and citywide areas. Task 6: Prepare Report We will prepare a draft report based on the results of the fee model. We will model the draft report after the 1999 report, including an executive summary and explanation of why the fees changed from that prior report. We anticipate meeting with city staff to review the report and integrating two (2) rounds of comments. We will prepare a final report for Council consideration and attend up to two (2) public meetings to present the report. STAFFING Robert D. Spencer, Principal Consultant in MuniFinancial's Financial Consulting Services (FCS) Group, will be the principal-in-charge. Peter Detlefs, Project Manager, will serve as project manager for this engagement. His responsibility will include directing all work and managing staff, keeping the project within budget and on schedule, and ensuring that the final product meets or exceeds City expectations. Carlos Villarreal, analyst in our FCS Group, will assist Mr. Detlefs as needed with this project. SCHEDULE We will provide an administrative draft report within 90days of receiving all updated assumptions from City staff noted in Task 1. We will provide a final report after reviewing two (2) rounds of comments on the administrative draft from the City.
