City of Redwood City Tra Mitigation Fee Study-Phase II Proposal-January 11, 1999 VII.2 Determine Type of Fee Performed concurrently with Task VII.!, we will evaluate the justification for a uniform citywide or a zone-based fee using a costlbenefit analysis of four benefit areas in Redwood City. The costlbenefit analysis simply compares the cost per DUE in each benefit area. If the cost per DUE in a particular benefit area is significantly different from other benefit areas or the average, it may indicate that a zone-based fee is appropriate. If this is determined, we will calculate a specific fee for each benefit area. VII.3 Affordabilitv and Phasing Analysis This task will estimate the revenues expected by the fee and identify funding deficits. We will provide the City with a list and description of potential alternative funding sources and options to address deficits and as required by GC 66000. Additionally, we will develop a preliminary phasing plan for implementation of the capital improvements and identify funding priorities. This task includes a meeting with City staff to present the fee methodology and preliminary fee calculations. Task VIII. Workshops/Stakeholder Meetings In this task the team will prepare and facilitate workshops with the City Council and stakeholders to address important issues and present milestone findings. The first of a series of three workshops was conducted in Phase I of the fee study-to present the fundamentals of traffic mitigation fees and GC 66000 to the City Council and to discuss the magnitude ofthe fees and estimated revenues. The second workshop is to present and discuss the finalized list of capital improvements, cost estimates and the preliminary fee calculations. In the third workshop we will present and discuss the draft fee report and key findings. Task IX. Fee Tracking Database IX.! Develop Database Products The team will develop a Traffic Mitigation Fee database system to track project-by-project fee collection, credits, reimbursements and other relevant information. City staff will provide the desired capabilities of the database. The database can cross-reference fee information by capital projects and development projects. The team will work with staff to develop a database that can account for fees collected and how they have been dispersed and permit modification of data and recalculation of fees. The database can be developed using recent state-of-the-art relational database software (e.g. Microsoft Access) and include a concise users manual for using, updating, reporting and maintaining the database. The database is a combination of three independent products: 1. 2. Primary database to track capital projects and fee collection Secondary database to track inter-fund borrowing, if more than one fund is established 3. Spreadsheet to update capital improvement cost estimates based on ENR and land inflation factors Page 9 Fehr & Peers Associates, Inc. """"-""""""'-""""'--"'-"r"""'-'~-"-
