RVCOG BACKGROUND INFORMA TION
RVCOG is a voluntary association of governmental entities in both Jackson and Josephine
counties. Membership includes thirteen incorporated cities, two counties, SOU and RCC, and
several special districts. The COG is governed by a Board of Directors led by representatives
from these member entities. Although a governmental organization, the COG has no sovereign
powers and no ability to levy taxes.
Rogue Valley Council of Governments
Program and Financial Update
January 2008
Upwards of 65% of the project funding RVCOG obtains on a yearly basis comes from the state
and federal governments, while 15% comes from local governmental contracts. The remaining
20% comes from other sources, mostly senior meals client donations, dues, other donations,
and sales of materials.
The programs offered by RVCOG fall into eight major areas:
- Community Development _ Transportation Planning
- Land Use Planning _ Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
- Senior and Disability Services _ Food & Friends (Meals on Wheels)
- Natural Resources _ Information Systems
In addition, both the finance manager and personnel/contracts specialist are available to provide
direct services to members.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
Community Development
Part of the Planning Department, Community Development
offers expertise in public involvement processes of all types;
grant administration; strategic planning and goal setting; and
special services such as emergency planning, ordinance
development, and opinion surveys.
Transportation Planninq
The majority of the planning work falls under the auspices of the
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), the federally designated
area stretching from Ashland in the south, Eagle Point to the north,
and Jacksonville to the west. In addition, the department does a
significant amount of work on individual city Transportation System
Plans (TSPs) and implementing ordinances.
Land Use Planninq
Land use planning services to member jurisdictions are available
on a short- or long-term contract basis for both current and long-
range planning. Services such as ordinance development and
updates, Comprehensive Plan updates, Periodic Review, and
collaborative planning processes are also available.
Geoqraphic Information Systems (GIS)
These services are an integral part of most projects performed by
the COG. GIS is responsible for the creation, management, and
mapping of digital data to create visual reference material. Data
can be created using GPS equipment or processed from an array
of data sources. Training is available for members in both GIS
and GPS, and GPS equipment is available to rent.

Senior and Disability Services (SDS)
SDS is the designated Area Agency on Aging and Disabilities for
Jackson and Josephine counties. The goal of SDS is to assist
seniors and people with disabilities to maintain their independence
through the development of a network of services and through
advocacy at the local, state, and national levels. The COG is
directly or administratively responsible for providing access to
services funded under the Older Americans Act, Oregon Project
Independence, Medicaid, and the Oregon Health Plan.
Food & Friends
Food & Friends is the region's Meals on Wheels and Congregate
Meal Site program, currently serving over 220,000 meals
annually to home-bound seniors and seniors who dine at the 14
congregate meal sites. The program relies heavily on over 300
local volunteers, almost 100 of which are actively assisting in
meal packaging and delivery on any given day. Annually, one-
third of the cost of the program must be obtained locally.
Natural Resources
The department has expanded its focus from just water
resources to the wider area of natural resources. Programs
include stormwater planning; water quality monitoring; hydraulic
and hydrologic modeling; natural resources education programs;
wildfire prevention planning; endangered species planning;
riparian restoration; and, most recently, parks planning (the Bear
Creek Greenway and the Rogue River Greenway).
Information Systems
RVCOG's information systems specialist is available to member
jurisdictions for the design, installation, and maintenance of
networks, for consulting on hardware and software purchases,
and for evaluating information systems.

PROVIDING SERVICES
Although the COG is officially organized along departmental and programmatic lines, our
services can also be considered a function of how we as an organization are designed to
interact with our member jurisdictions, and/or how our activities are funded. Along these lines,
we have five major modes of operation:
1. We have the long-term responsibility for implementing certain state and federal programs.
For example:
::> We administer the Medicaid program for the region, as well as Oregon Project
Independence, and the Older Americans Act programs (including the senior meals
program ).
::> We staff the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), which is responsible for
transportation planning in the Greater Bear Creek Valley.
2. We collaborate with our members to obtain funding and cooperation from state and federal
agencies to perform specific tasks, which mayor may not also include complementary
funding from local sources. Our involvement can originate as a request from local members
or from state or federal agencies.
For example:
::> We have played a major role in Gold Hill's relocation of its water intake.
:> We have managed the Regional Problem Solving Process from its inception.
::> We played a leading role in a collaborative effort to develop an operations and
maintenance plan for the Bear Creek Greenway.
3. We directly contract with our member jurisdictions for specific services.
For example:
:> Our staff serves as the contract planner for the cities of Shady Cove, Gold Hill and
Cave Junction, and provides as-needed planning services for Jackson County,
Josephine County, and Ashland.
:> Our Finance Manager works part-time as RVTD's Finance Manager.
::> We implement the TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load) program, a collaborative
water quality monitoring and compliance effort in the Bear Creek Valley.
4. We respond directly to requests from the private sector and from individuals.
For example:
:> We directly contract with private firms working on the Fern Valley Interchange and
Highway 62 projects to provide public involvement services.
:> We contract with a private company to provide senior services case management
to a low-income housing development in Grants Pass.
5. At the Board's direction, we initiate regionally significant activities.
For example:
::> We established a nonprofit organization, the Southern Oregon Center for
Community Partnerships, to focus on multi-sector collaboration.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
The COG's finances
continue to be quite
different than they were
during the majority of
the 1990s, when
positive fund equities
turned negative in the
special revenue
(project) and general
(administration) funds.
Beginning in 1999, with
the establishment of
policies that oversee
budgeting, billing
procedures, personnel
management, and
project design and
implementation, the COG has steadily improved its situation, and is now consistently posting a
positive ratio of assets to liabilities, a healthy cash flow, and uniformly positive fund equities.

The COG has also
enjoyed greater stability
and consistency in
budgets over the last
eight years. From
FYOOI01 to FY04/05,
the COG maintained an
operating range of
between $5 and $6 million
dollars in its budgets, the
result of a healthy
balance of factors such as
sustainable staffing
levels, member needs,
and federal, state, and
local funding. Following
this 5-year period of
budget consolidation and slow growth, the last three years have seen the COG move to the next
level, between the $6 and $7 million dollar range, at which it is likely to remain for the rest of the
decade.

For a variety of reasons, not the least of which has been the higher budget levels and relatively
static administrative costs, we have been able to reduce the indirect rate over the last several
years from 18.5% in FY04/05 to 17% in the current fiscal year. Although this year's rate of 17%
is an increase over the prior fiscal year's 16%, the increase was necessitated by RVCOG's
decision to reduce its annual membership dues by 40% across the board. This has represented
a savings for our members of nearly $63,000, far outweighing the minor increase in indirect
costs. Although the imminent disappearance of O&C funds (the primary impetus behind the
reduction in dues) has not yet occurred, the COG is well positioned for what appears to be an
eventual catastrophic reduction in funding for both Jackson and Josephine counties. As stated
4
last year, when the idea of reducing our dues was first entertained, it would be contrary to our
philosophy of thinking and acting regionally, and to our mission of facilitating our membership to
be successful in doing the same, if we were to ignore the very real impact on our counties and
on our region of the disappearance of O&C funds.
Finally, the COG has
been aggressive in
maintaining the
billable hourly rate of
its employees,
including indirect
costs, at a relatively
flat level. As the
graph shows, from
FY02/03 to FY07/08,
a period of six years,
the average hourly
billable rate for our
employees has
actually decreased
1.5%.
