This meeting is referred to as strategy review meeting#1.Potential items for discussion include: ♦ Current and projected parks and recreation ♦ Exemptions and discount options revenues and expenses (city task) ♦ Administration and billing options ♦ Parks cost of service basis options ♦ Fee escalation options ♦ Residential and non-residential customer ♦ Identification of Pacific Northwest cities allocation options for task 1.2 1.2 Northwest Parks Utility Fee Survey Consultant will conduct research on the existence of parks utility fees in use by other agencies in the Pacific Northwest. In addition to a list of such cities, Consultant will provide a summary of key information, such as year established, formation resolution parameters under state and local law, and utility rate-making principles and characteristics. Current parks utility fee structures and methods for selected Oregon cities that have adopted parks utility fees will be identified. 1.3 Parks Utility Fee Issues Analysis Working with City staff input, Consultant will prepare up to 3 "issue papers" that establish Tigard rate-setting strategies for Parks. Each issue paper will briefly identify and analyze options that the City may consider when forming a utility, identify pros and cons of each, and identify any legal _ considerations in selecting a recommend approach to issues such as: ♦ Basis of charges (revenue requirements) ♦ New expenses incurred to operate, ♦ Cost allocation techniques (residential, maintain, and manage the parks utility non-residential, service unit, park ♦ Existing and future debt repayment and proximity, etc.) reserves ♦ Fiscal policy achievement Deliverables and Meetings ♦ Task 1.1 Data Needs List/Status ♦ Council Presentation Materials. Includes ♦ Task 1.2 Parks Utility Fee Survey PoConsultantrpoint Presentation that ♦ Task 1.3 Issue Papers summarizes Tasks 1.1-1.3 draft findings. ♦ Strategy Review Meering (#1) ♦ Council Workshop (10/20) 1311' a,g c TASK 2 PARKS UTILITY FEE MODEL DEVELOPMENT 2.1 Operating Forecast The operating forecast is intended to identify future annual non-capital costs. Annual escalation factors will be applied for general inflation, labor and benefits. Adjustments will be made for new costs anticipated from additional staffing needs and other operating costs associated with maintaining the system along with initiating new or enhanced program activities such as incorporating a new community center, or parks program enhancements. The operations forecast will include a three (3) to five (5) year forecast for scenarios,including: 1. Current Parks Maintenance 5. Addition of New Parks 2. Deferred Parks Maintenance 6. Introduction of a Recreational Program 3. Identified Capital Improvement Projects 7. Inclusion of Special Community Assets 4. Development of Current Parks Land 8. Revenue Sources to Offset Expenses Inventory 2.2 Cost Component Analysis Consultant project team members will complete a line item review of costs provided by City staff to determine the fixed and variable costs distribution of the system. Consultant will work with City staff to prepare updated cost estimates for planned capital projects, parks programs, deferred maintenance items, and direct and indirect parks and recreation expenditures. Note, this analysis would rely upon current overhead cost allocation assumptions, and asset remaining life span estimates provided by City staff. 2.3 Capital Funding The analysis will develop a capital funding plan that will determine an optimal mix of available resources from rate revenues, SDCs, existing cash reserves and debt financing to maintain ongoing financial health of the system and to smooth future rate impacts driven by capital funding. 2.4 Annual Rate Funded System Reinvestment Review deferred maintenance or system reinvestment funding levels for appropriateness. System reinvestment has become a best management practice in the utility industry. It involves setting aside funds to accumulate a cash resource for future asset replacements, with the policy intent being to promote stable and moderate long-term rates and avoid burdening any single generation of customers with the cost of asset replacement.

Task 1 Data Collection and Issues Analysis 1.2 Data Collection and Project Initiation Meeting Immediately upon notice to proceed, FCS GROUP staff will prepare a Data Request and meet with City of Tigard staff to discuss data requirements, operational forecasts, and rate model assumptions. We will attend a meeting with you and other city staff to discuss initial findings; and to discuss the steps needed to conduct a parks utility fee; and the approach/schedule/budget required for completing and adopting a parks utility fee. This meeting is referred to as strategy review meeting#1. Potential items for discussion include: Current and projected parks and recreation revenues and Exemptions and discount options expenses(city task) Administration and billing options Parks cost of service basis options Fee escalation options Residential and non-residential customer allocation options Identification of Padfic Northwest cities for task 1.2 1.2 Northwest Parks Utility Fee Survey We will conduct research on the existence of parks utility fees in use by other agencies in the Pacific Northwest. In addition to a list of such cities,we will provide a summary of key information, such as year established, formation resolution parameters under state and local law, and utility rate-making principles and characteristics. Current parks utility fee structures and methods for selected Oregon cities that have adopted parks utility fees will be identified. 1.3 Parks Utility Fee Issues Analysis Working with City staff input, we will prepare up to 3 "issue papers"that establish Tigard rate- setting strategies for Parks. Each issue paper will briefly identify and analyze options that the City may consider when forming a utility, identify pros and cons of each, and identify any legal considerations in selecting a recommend approach to issues such as: Basis of charges(revenue requirements) New expenses incurred to operate, maintain,and manage Cost allocation techniques(residential, non-residential, the parks utility service unit, park pro)arrity,etc.) Existing and future debt repayment and reserves Fiscal policy achievement Deliverables and Meetings Task 1.1 Data Needs List/Status Council Presentation Materials. Includes Poverpoint Task 1.2 Parks Utility Fee Survey Presentation that summarizes Tasks 1.1-1.3 draft Task 1.3 Issue Papers findings. Strategy Review Meeting(#1) Council Workshop(10/20) Task 2 Parks Utility Fee Model Development 17� 2.1 Operating Forecast The operating forecast is intended to identify future annual non-capital costs. Annual escalation factors will be applied for general inflation, labor and benefits. Adjustments will be made for new costs anticipated from additional staffing needs and other operating costs associated with maintaining the system along with initiating new or enhanced program activities such as incorporating a new community center, or parks program enhancements. The operations forecast will include a three (3) to five (5) year forecast for scenarios, including: 9. Current Parks Maintenance 13. Addition of New Parks 10. Deferred Parks Maintenance 14. Introduction of a Recreational Program 11. Identified Capital Improvement Projects 15. Inclusion of Special Community Assets 12. Development of Current Parks Land Inventory 16. Revenue Sources to Offset Expenses 2.2 Cost Component Analysis FCS GROUP project team members will complete a line item review of costs provided by City staff to determine the fixed and variable costs distribution of the system. We will work with City staff to prepare updated cost estimates for planned capital projects, parks programs, deferred maintenance items, and direct and indirect parks and recreation expenditures. Note, this analysis would rely upon current overhead cost allocation assumptions, and asset remaining life span estimates provided by City staff. 2.3 Capital Funding The analysis will develop a capital funding plan that will determine an optimal mix of available resources from rate revenues, SDCs, existing cash reserves and debt financing to maintain ongoing financial health of the system and to smooth future rate impacts driven by capital funding. 2.4 Annual Rate Funded System Reinvestment Review deferred maintenance or system reinvestment funding levels for appropriateness. System reinvestment has become a best management practice in the utility industry. It involves setting aside funds to accumulate a cash resource for future asset replacements, with the policy intent being to promote stable and moderate long-term rates and avoid burdening any single generation of customers with the cost of asset replacement. A system reinvestment funding component supported by rates will be evaluated. 2.5 Debt Service Requirements We will include existing and any anticipated new issues in the revenue requirement along with meeting specific debt coverage ratios. 2.6 Reserve Analysis We will review existing fund balance policies for compliance and recommend new fund balance targets as warranted. 2.7 Test of Sufficiency We will evaluate the adequacy of current system revenues in meeting both cash flow needs and debt service coverage requirements. Overall revenue needs will be split between sufficiency in meeting existing bond coverage and future debt coverage requirements. 18��' . 2.8 Annual Rate Strategy Develop an annual rate strategy to fully fund all system obligations and smooth rate impacts over 3 to 5 years. 2.9 Sensitivity Analyses Conduct sensitivity analyses for each operating scenario (listed in task 2.1) to evaluate the financial and rate impacts of changes to revenue requirements. Deliverables and Meetings Technical Memorandum summarizing Draft Rate Model(Excel) Task 2.1-2.9 findings Strategy Review Meeting(#2) Task 3 Allocation Recommendation and Parks Utility Fee Model 3.1 Rate Design Recommendation This task develops rates that generate sufficient revenue to meet the revenue requirement forecast. We will clearly describe the initial 3 to 5 year revenue requirements and the preferred allocation basis and explain why it was selected(see issue paper work task 1.3). 3.2 Prepare Fee Model Prepare interactive Microsoft Excel spreadsheet model and associated materials. The base fee model shall use the City's current Parks Maintenance as its base assumption, and other operational factors as "add-ons"to the base rate. The model will allow the gradual phase out of the current General Fund support as the resulting Parks and Recreation Fee is phase in. 3.3 Prepare Rate Study Report Prepare and submit electronic copy of a draft and final report, summarizing all study assumptions, methodologies, analytical results and recommendations. The report will also include a technical appendix supporting the findings. Incorporate City comments on the draft, as appropriate.
