The formula to be used in determining the adjustment is attached as exhibit"A". I PASSED: This io ay of 2001. ayor,Ci y of i d y A T: QUt City Recorder,City of Tigard RESOLUTION NO.01--1 !} Page I EXHIBIT"A" FORMULA FOR PARKS SDC ANNUAL ADJUSTMENTS Parks SDC fees shall be adjusted annually on January 1 st of each year beginning in 2002. The new fee will be determined by multiplying the existing fees by the average of two indices,one reflecting changes in development/construction costs and one reflecting changes in land acquisition costs. The average of these two indices is a reasonable approach because the Parks SDC fee is roughly split 50%between land acquisition and land development components. The index for the Land Acquisition component will be the base cost for residential tract land in Tigard,as determined by the Washington Country Appraiser. The average cost for residential tract land was selected because it is readily identified and is the lowest priced of the buildable lands in Tigard. Changes in this base cost can be calculated in terms of a percentage increase, to create the level of change to the original index,and projected to the overall acquisition cost. 'R aeserdanee With MeaSWFe 5,Mhe Washington County Appraiser's office will determine appraised real market values on July 1 of each year. The index for the Land Development component of the Parks SDC will be the Construction Cost Index for the City of Seattle as published in the December issue of the Engineering News Record (ENR).The Seattle cost index will be used because the city is the geographically closest to Tigard of twenty metropolitan areas for which the ENR maintains cost data.This index is adjusted monthly,quarterly,and annually. The annual index far eGh year will be Se!cctcd begs...ing with,he iRde)(fOF o,,,.embez2002 The annual index will be used because it is available in December and most closely coincides with the January 1s`implementation of park SDC fee adjustments.
