Notification 72 hours prior to the meeting will enable the City to make reasonable arrangements to ensure accessibility to the meeting (28 CFR 35.102-35.104 ADA Title I). r., H I CITY OF ASHLAND Council Communication Study Session - Water and Wastewater Systems Development Charges Study Meeting Date: April 3, 2006 Primary Staff Contact: Lee Tuneberg ~:( Department: Administrative Services E-mail: tuneberl@ashland.or.us Contributing Departments: Public Works, ~ Secondary Staff Contact: Community Dev ment E-mail: Approval: Gino Grimaldi /' ',. Estimated Time: 60 Minutes Statement: The city's SDC Committee spent much of 2005 working with staff and consultant Shaun Pigott to review the current systems development charge calculations in order to determine the need for a change in methodology and amount charged. This study session will afford Council the opportunity to educate itself on state requirements for setting SDCs and Ashland's approach. Background: The attached reports provide narrative on the history of our systems development charges for water and wastewater (sometimes referred to as SDCs or impact fees) and methodology for both systems. The city last studied and revised these two in 2000 where the methodology changed from 1996's fixture counts to a habitable square footage basis. This approach is unique to Ashland but falls within State guidelines and seems to work well for our community. Based upon the work done, the total amount charged for both systems would decrease $796 (-12%) over current charges for a habitable 2000 square foot home. Staff worked with the six-member committee (Darrell Boldt, Kerry KenCairn, Larry Medinger, Jac Nickels, Connie Saldana and Greg Williams) and support their recommendations contained in the attachments. Many of these members participated in the previous studies and we thank all of them for their willingness and dedication to this process. A public hearing and first reading of an ordinance are tentatively set for April 18, 2006. Related City Policies: None Council Options: None. This is a study session so no formal action can be taken. Council can direct staff to: 1. Request more information from staff or work by the committee. 2. Schedule an ordinance for a regular session of Council so that public input can be obtained prior to implementing new charges ~A' rr I Staff Recommendation: Council identify additional information needed and direct staff to present it at the December 20, 2005, regular session to allow full discussion and public input. Potential Motions: None Attachments: Wastewater and Water _ SystemDevelopment Sharge Summary, January 10, 2006 Water and Sewer SDC Study - Project Status Report, September 27, 2005 r~' If I City of Ashland Wastewater and Water - System Development Charge Summary January 10, 2006 DRAFT Prepared by Shaun Pigott Associates, LLC If I CITY OF ASHLAND WASTEWATER AND WATER SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGE UPDATE Process This update of Ashland's system development charges (SDC) for wastewater and water was done in order to revise the SDCs based on recently completed facility plans for both utility systems. Also, as part of this update process; issues related to the current SDC structure were addressed through Ashland's SDC Committee. The Committee includes Darrel Boldt, lac Nickels, Greg Williams, Larry Medinger, Russ Silbiger, Kerry KenCairn, and Connie Saldana. The SDC Committee has worked directly with staff and the City's consultant over the course of 5 meetings held between April and September 2005. The proposed revisions to the wastewater and water SDCs reflect the Committee's unanimous recommendations to the Ashland City Council. For this update, the City and Committee had a number of objectives: . Review the basis for the SDCs to ensure a consistent methodology; . Develop a rationale and documentation for the improvement element of the SDC; . Consider possible revisions to the structure or basis of the charge that might improve equity or proportionality to demand; and . Provide clear, orderly documentation of the assumptions, methodology, and results, so that City staff can, by reference, respond to questions or concerns from the public Background The City's SDC Ordinance No. 4.20 was originally adopted in 1992 and amended in 1996. The ordinance was designed for compliance with ORS 223.297-.314 (Oregon SDC statute) which mandated that all jurisdictions having SDCs adopt ordinances consistent with this State law. Actual SDC calculations have been adopted through a series of resolutions including Resolution No. 2000-29 "A Resolution Adopting New Water, Wastewater and Parks System Development Charge Schedules." This also served to repeal the SDCs set in 1996. For water and wastewater, the 1996 SDCs were based on fixture counts with a single-family home (17 fixtures) paying $2,716 for water and $2,255 for wastewater. City of Ashland - sec Update Summary Wastewater and Water Page 1 03/29/06 If" I In 2000, this methodology was reviewed by the City through the SDC Committee for purposes of simplifying the calculation and eliminating the perceived or real inequity of a 1200 sq ft home paying the same SDC as a 3000 sq ft home. The objective was to simplify and make the calculation more predictable, easier to administer and to ensure that larger homes paid a proportionately larger SDC over smaller homes. The staff recommendation was to replace, for single family and multi family properties, the use of fixture counts with "habitable square footage" which equals the heated square footage of a house. This figure would be submitted as part of the plan review process and would be clear, easy to administer and charge larger houses more for their SDC. In order to achieve this last objective, the City developed a series of SDC brackets based on ranges of habitable square footage and assigned to these brackets a specific cost per square foot, with the cost per square foot within each bracket going up as the overall square footage increased. This calculation and the resulting brackets were designed to be "revenue neutral" in terms of the overall SDC revenue generated with this calculation vs. the 1996 fixture count approach. Under the revised approach, a "typical" average sized home would be charged a water SDC of $3,362 ($2,716 under old SDC) and a wastewater SDC of $2,482 ($2,255 under old SDC). SDC State Law Under ORS 223, there are two elements to an SDC: The reimbursement fee considers the cost of existing facilities, prior contributions by existing users of those facilities, the value of the unused/available capacity, and generally accepted ratemaking principles. The objective is that "future system users contribute no more than an equitable share to the cost of existing facilities." The reimbursement fee can be spent on capital costs or debt service related to the systems for which the SDC is applied. The improvement fee portion of the SDC is based on the cost of planned future facilities that expand the system's capacity to accommodate growth or increase its level of performance. In developing an analysis of the improvement portion of the fee, each project in the City's capital improvement plan was reviewed to exclude costs related to correcting existing system deficiencies or upgrading for historical lack of capacity. The improvement SDC is calculated as a function of the estimated number of additional units to be served by the City's facilities over the planning period. Specific SDC Committee Recommendations . The City's use of "habitable square footage" for wastewater and water SDC calculation does run counter to the generally accepted approaches used in Oregon which are either meter size and/or fixture counts. However, ORS 223 does not mandate any specific calculation approach so long as the allocation methodology selected "promotes that future system users contribute no more than an equitable share to the cost of existing facilities" AND "the cost of projected capital improvements needed to increase the capacity of the systems" is the basis for the charge. The SDC Committee did feel the use City of Ashland - SDC Update Summary Wastewater and Water Page 2 03/29/06 If I of habitable square footage was consistent with the City's objectives for promoting smaller home construction in the City and recommended that it be continued. However, the use of numerous brackets in applying habitable square footage was considered counterproductive and the Committee recommended a uniform cost per habitable square foot. . The City has funded the construction of its new wastewater treatment plant through food and beverage tax receipts. This source of funding is not affected by existing wastewater customers nor can an SDC designed to reimburse the utility (and its customers) for its costs in providing capacity be applied when the treatment facilities are paid through a food and beverage tax. Accordingly, the reimbursement portion of the wastewater SDC does not include the treatment costs paid through the food and beverage tax. . The City currently maintains 5 distinct SDC funds for wastewater and water. Under wastewater there are SDC funds for treatment and collection. Under water, there are separate SDC funds for distribution, treatment and supply. The Committee recommends that these 5 funds be reduced to 2, one for wastewater and one for water. Any concerns about loss of accountability by reducing the number of funds can be offset by annually reconvening the SDC Committee to review the City's year-end report on SDC receipts, expenditures and capital project list. The SDC Committee did volunteer their time for these annual meetings. . Ashland's 2000 water and wastewater SDCs are based on projects that were updated from the 1996 SDC study. The City now has updated facility plans and CIPs for both utilities. For this SDC update, each of these projects has been reviewed in terms of purpose, cost, and allocation between existing ratepayers and SDC eligibility. The SDC Committee spent the majority of its time reviewing the capital project lists and capacity allocations for each of the wastewater and water projects. These individual projects and their allocation to growth are now part ofthe City's SDC methodology. . Based on the SDC Committee's review of the water and wastewater project lists and the allocation methods felt to be most consistent with the City's policy objectives, the following are the Committee's SDC recommendations: Wastewater SDC Current _ SDC is $2,707 for a "typical" 2,000 habitable square foot home Proposed _ SDC would be $1,237 for a "typical" 2,000 habitable square foot home This 54% reduction of the SDC for wastewater is due to a significantly downsized allocation of capital facility costs to growth and the removal of the treatment plant funded through food and beverage tax receipts from the reimbursement element of the SDC. It should be highlighted that the food and beverage tax is due to sunset in 2010. If these tax revenues are no longer City of Ashland - SDC Update Summary Wastewater and Water Page 3 03/29/06 rr I available to fund the wastewater treatment plant, the debt service for this facility would need to be paid through a combination of increased wastewater rates and increased SDCs. Note that the SDC for commercial properties will be based on fixture counts (number of toilets, sinks, etc) at a rate of $95.19 per fixture. A commercial property having, as an example, 16 fixtures would pay a wastewater SDC of$I,523. Water SDC Current _ SDC is $3,667 for a "typical" 2,000 habitable square foot home Proposed _ SDC would be $4,341 for a "typical" 2,000 habitable square foot home This 16% increase in the SDC results from evaluation of the 22 projects identified in City's water CIP and a more accurate allocation of these project costs between growth and current water customers. Note that the SDC for commercial properties will be based on meter size. As an example a %" meter will pay $4,116; I" meter will pay $6,873; 1.5" meter will pay $13,706. Overall, the proposed SDCs for both wastewater and water, assuming a "typical" 2000 habitable square foot home, would be $5,578. This represents a 12% ($796) reduction for these two SDCs over the current $6,374. City of Ashland - SDC Update Summary Wastewater and Water Page 4 03/29/06 rr .

Background: Over the years council members have mentioned the inconsistencies in the various ordinances and resolutions establishing city commissions, committees and boards (CCBs). Some commissions include the council liaison as a voting member others do not, one commission designates the council liaison as the commission chairperson. Each CCB was developed separately, some by ordinance and some by resolution, to address a specific need of the council at that time. In some cases the charge of one or more CCB appears to overlap with another e.g. Traffic Safety and Bike and Pedestrian. The establishment of the various CCBs range from 1973 (Senior Program Board) to 2003 (Public Art). The powers and duties of a number of the commissions have actually been completed. For example: Of the nine duties defined in the ordinance establishing the Street Tree Commission (1993), five of the items were specific actions that have been completed. The remaining four items relate to the commission's role as an advisory group and/or an educational group. Many of the powers and duties of the Housing Commission established in 1995 have been addressed through the Housing Needs Analysis and the Housing Action Plan. Occasionally council members have commented that a board or commission may take an action, which seems inconsistent with the policies or goals set by the council and prompt a council comment. Some councilors have wondered if the various CCBs have goals and if so are they developed with council goals in mind. Finally, given the growing demand on stafftime, there is some concern that the demands placed on staff by some CCBs may not be an efficient use of staff time. Related City Policies: a. Legal Framework. Except where determined by state statute, Council generally has the power to establish or abolish CCBs and the Mayor has the authority to appoint and remove members with Council approval. There is some inconsistency between the enabling frameworks because each has been developed separately to address a specific need at the time. b. Standing versus Temporary. Standing CCBs can provide a valuable service to the community by providing in-depth advice to the council on a variety of topics and assume some of the workload from the council to research issues or gather public input. The council also creates temporary or ad hock committees to make recommendations on specific topics within a specified period of time. This report focuses on the standing CCBs. 1 Boards Voting Council Council Number of Established Established Inactive or Members Liaison Liaison is Staff by Ord. by Reso.

Charter Review Committee Attachment A-2 CITY OF ASHLAND DRAFT Memo RE: October 29, 2003 Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission Traffic Safety Commission John McLaughlin, Director of Community Development Paula Brown, Director of Public Works Combining the two commissions into a single Transportation Commission DATE: TO: FROM: Recommendation Staff recommends that the Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission and the Traffic Safety Commission be combined and asks for support from the Commissions prior to presenting the recommendation to the Mayor and Council. Background For more than two years there has been discussion about combining the Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission (BPC) into a single entity. In February of2003 the staff liaisons and two members from each of the two commissions met to discuss a possible merger into a single Transportation Safety Commission. At the time there was general agreement between the two groups to move ahead and yet the momentum waned as other issues rose on the priority list. Reasons to combine: Over the past two years there has been significant turnover in members on the BPC (11 people have been appointed and resigned prior to completing the three year term) compared to a much lower turnover of members on the Traffic Safety Commission (4 people have been appointed who resigned prior to completing the three year term). The BPC is primarily an advocacy group charged with promoting the use of non-automotive transportation. It is difficult for people in an advocacy role to maintain enthusiasm and commitment over a long period of time, as there is no means to measure progress. Staff feels this may be the reason there is such a high degree of turnover on the BPC. It is important that volunteers have a mix of duties in addition to education and advocacy. People need to have applicable actions that can be measured, the opportunity to show tangible successes and to have input on issues and concerns raised by the public. The TSC is primarily an advisory group to Public Works on non-routine traffic engineering problems and actions that require public hearings. They have actual problems that they can take action on and thus have a sense of measurable accomplishments. While the commission is charged with producing Public Works and Community Development 20 East Main Street Ashland, Oregon 97520 www.ashland.or.us Tel: 541-488-6002 Fax: 541-488-5311 TTY: 800-735-2900 r., . A +ttu.h~ent Y, - \ .- and promoting traffic safety education programs that element often overlaps with the BBC and can take a back seat to the action issues. Combining the two commissions provides a balance of perspectives, education and action. A single commission that would be an advocacy group as well as an advisory group for all modes of transportation and transportation safety. In addition, the combination of the two groups greatly improves the efficiency and use of staff time. Often both commissions review the same or similar issues such as miscellaneous concrete projects, downtown pedestrian safety, sidewalk improvements and more. By combining commissions, staffis preparing information once as well as working simultaneously on both planning and engineering. Currently, staff liaisons from each commission find themselves both working on similar issues and duplicating efforts. Attached is additional background information including a memo sent to the Traffic Safety Commission by Jim Olsen, Engineering Services Manager and staff liaison to the Commission, a list of the power and duties of each commission, and an e-mail from Keith Masssie to Jim Olsen dated February 10,2003. Staff feels that a single commission will be stronger and more effective than the two separate commISSIons. B-J. ~ r Memo CITY OF -ASHLAND Date: From: To: Re: February 19, 20l?'\ James H. Olson V Traffic Safety Co mission COMBINING TRAFFIC SAFETY AND BIKE & PEDESTRIAN COMMISSIONS Last week the staff liaisons and two members of the Bike & Ped and Traffic Safety Commissions met to discuss a possible merger of the two commissions into a single Transportation Safety Commission. The combining of the two commissions is a dialog that has been going on for over a year and the various meetings have identified the following pros and cons: PROS: The staff workload could be spread over a broader labor pool In consideration of citizen requests and in project reviews the combined commission would guarantee that the bicycle point of view would be equally considered The merger would bring planning and engineering concerns closer together' The merger could eliminate the duplication of efforts which both commissions now experience The merger would reduce meeting times for some members The number of actual monthly meetings would be reduced which would free up City meeting facilities CONS: There is some concern that the merger may increase the workload and require longer meeting times Some members of the two commissions would be required to step-down as the new combined commission would most likely have only 9 members There is concern that the advocacy role of the bike and pedestrian commission may be lost or lessened with a merger Sub-committees may be required to deal with specific issues such as advocating bike . . Issues To ensure that the bicycle perspective is preserved it would be necessary to stipulate a required bicycle affiliation for some members. The merger obviously warrants further discussion by the commissions both individually and jointly. It is suggested that we discuss this proposal at the February 27th meeting and then meet jointly with the Bike and Pedestrian commission to finalize a course of action. ENGINEERING DIVISION 20 E.

They are as follows: 1. Increased workload. I feel the TSC's workload is at a very doable level, and there are some projects that we have postponed, so adding more projects is not wise. 2. The TSC does consider bikes and peds and this point would argue for a merger. 3. If there was to be a merger of the commissions, then I'd like to see one member added to the TSC and this person would always represent the bicycle community. I feel that the TSC already does a very good job of representing the pedestrians (the sidewalk projects for example) so I'm less concerned about adding a ped member. 4. I don't want the TSC to become an advocacy group for more bike paths. I personally feel the city needs more, but the TSC needs a broader focus. 5. I'd like this issue brought before both commissions for further discussion, albeit with some recommendations from the group meeting today. Thanks for you time.
