REV: 08-25-23 VR Task 2 Schedule It is understood that the City is seeking a completed Nexus Study by early November for City Council consideration in early December. The consultant work tasks are hence envisioned to take place over the course of the 10-week period up to November 4th. Participation in one-hour meetings will occur throughout this timeframe. It will be necessary to receive the completed Hexagon technical analysis in September to leave sufficient time for the remaining consultant tasks, including final technical review, the drafting of the nexus study, and nexus study finalization. Task 2 Budget Due to the advisory nature of this work coupled with the expedited crafting of the Nexus Study, most of the consultant work effort will be conducted by Teifion Rice-Evans with some input and guidance from Ashleigh Kanat. Estimated hours and budget are shown below. The budget does not include any public meetings, presentations, or work after development of the nexus study. As shown, the total budget, including Task 5/ Contingency, sums to $24,5000 (or $21,300 before the contingency).

Task 3: Fee Comparison and Prototype Burden Analysis For six cities (Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, San Bruno, San Mateo, and Daly City), Consultant will gather all development impact fees and regulatory-based in-lieu fees so that Redwood City is able to compare its current and proposed fee levels relative to other peer jurisdictions. Planning and building fees will be excluded. Consultant will also identify several development prototypes (e.g., a single family house, a multifamily apartment, an office/R&D development, a retail development, and an industrial development) and calculate the aggregate fee burdens in each city. Again, the goal is to help Redwood City understand its current and proposed fee burdens as a way of guiding ATTY/AGR.2023/Amend. No.1/Economic and Planning Systems, Inc.
