Date: November 30, 2018
To: Impact Fee Advisory Committee
From: Anna Rosenberry, Assistant City Manager
Re: Transportation Impact Fee Study Update
Background: Tindale Oliver representatives, Steven Tindale and Nilgun Kamp, are
scheduled to present additional information and answer questions about the
Transportation Impact Fee study at your December 11, 2018 meeting. The Advisory
Committee will formulate a recommendation to the City Commission regarding adoption of
the study. (See suggested recommendation information at the end of this memo.)
Tindale Oliver representatives are also scheduled to present the study and answer
questions in front of the City Commission on January 14, 2019. Once the Commission
accept the study, staff will draft a new Transportation Impact Fee Resolution for the
Commission to adopt, tentatively scheduled for February 4, 2019. Any changes in the City’s
impact fees will be made effective by this resolution.
Changes to the Draft Study: The Draft Transportation Impact Fee Study Update from May
2018 is attached to this memo. No changes have been made to the Draft Study yet. After
the Impact Fee Advisory Committee’s recommendations are made, Tindale Oliver will
incorporate final tables and narrative into the Study for submittal to the City Commission.
Updated Information: At the June Impact Fee Advisory Committee meeting, Committee
members asked numerous questions about the Draft Study. Throughout the summer and
fall, staff and the consultants discussed preparing a set of alternative Transportation
Impact fees that:
Updating Bozeman’s trip‐length data, and
Recognize the difference in Demand for Service between residential dwelling units
built as Single‐family (detached) and Multi Family, and
Better reflect Bozeman’s transportation system Level of Service (LOS).
The resulting analysis is shown in a series of Tables (1‐6). The tables illustrate different
combinations of Demand and Level of Service options.
Trip Length Data: Since meeting in June, we have not engaged in a separate Bozeman‐
only trip length study. We contacted the Western Transportation Institute (WTI) at
Montana State University to see if they had recent data available on Bozeman trip‐lengths
that could be used. While they were able to provide some information on University‐
specific trips and a roughly estimated average trip‐length for University‐specific trips, it
was not community‐wide information that could be used in the study.
We have considered entering into a consulting agreement for an update to the Bozeman‐
specific trip length study that was completed in 2006/07. However, in the months since
the Committee last met, the City’s Engineering Division has lost two more key employees
(City Engineer and Engineering Inspection Supervisor) and are currently still without a
Director. The workload associated with scoping, preparing, and bidding a trip length study
has not been able to be completed. Therefore, the consultants have not made any changes
to their calculations for trip‐length; they continue to be based upon the local studies the
City completed in 2006/07.
Demand for Service: Tindale Oliver was asked to examine different demands for service
relative to the different residential dwelling types (single family vs multi family.) They
have prepared detailed comparison information, in the form of a slide show (attached), that
they will present to the Committee regarding the tiering of single‐family and multi‐family
fees based on trip generation rates. They describe a “breakout” method and provide a
new “Alternative” method.
Table 1 shows the calculated fees included in the draft report and how those fees compare
to our current impact fee.

Alternative Method: An alternative method for demand calculation has been completed
using American Community Survey Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) information. This
provides a new demand curve, shown as “Alternative” on slides attached.
The “Alternative” Trip Generation Rate (TGR) method would yield a fee for residential units
shown below in Table 3.

Level of Service: Tindale Oliver has also prepared more nuanced options to account for
Bozeman’s existing and future Level of Service conditions. As discussed during the June
meeting, the Draft study calculated fees (Table 1, above) take the adopted Level Of Service
standards and use them as average daily conditions, which implies half the roads are worse
than the standards and half are better (a volume to capacity (V/C) ratio of 1).
When the Consultants reviewed the average current conditions, they calculated a volume to
capacity ratio of V/C=0.53, which is a lot better than what was included in the initial
calculations. When they calculated the V/C for 2040, the V/C=0.73, which is what has been
used in the alternative calculations shown below in Table 4.
IMPORTANT: Please note that if the City decides to use this option (say V/C=0.73) or
another service level that may be between 0.73 and 1, the adopted LOS standards
need to be adjusted to reflect this. It is important that the City does not end up
charging for a service level that may not be achieved in the future.

**For Illustration purposes only, the consultants have prepared a summary of the
calculated rates when the volume to capacity = 0.53. That schedule is attached as
Addendum A. You will see that in order to obtain this ratio into the future, impact fee levels
would need to be set much higher than currently proposed.
Combining the Demand and Level of Service Options:
Based on the different Demand options of the “breakout” or “alternative” methods (shown
in Tables 2‐3), you could combine them with the higher LOS V/C=0.73 to derive two new
options for the impact fee.
Table 5 shows these separated “SFR” and “MFT” categories of Residential Dwelling Units
under the V/C ratio of 0.73, the City's projected travel conditions by 2040. This seeks to
provide the combined answer for Level of Service adjustments and Residential Dwelling
Unit adjustments to the fee.

Impact Fee Advisory Committee Recommendations: The Committee is looking to
recommend an impact fee that adequately accounts for the proportionate share of the cost
of providing additional infrastructure for use by new development. Consider the following
in a possible motion for updating the Draft Study and forwarding to the City Commission.
1. Does the Committee recommend that the Commission adopt the Transportation
Impact Fee Study Update?
a. Demand Component: Does the Committee recommend that the Study include:
i. 2018 Study Draft Report residential curve (Table 1), or
ii. A separation of single family vs. multi family curves (Table 2) , or
iii. A revised all‐residential curve based on PUMS data (Table 3)?
b. Level Of Service Component: Does the Committee recommend that the Study
include fees calculated based on a higher future Level of Service (V/C = 0.73)?
i. LOS (V/C = 0.73) + 2018 Study Draft curve (Table 4), or
ii. LOS (V/C = 0.73) + separation of single family vs. multi family curves
(Table 5), or
iii. LOS (V/C = 0.73) + A revised all‐residential curve based on PUMS data
(Table 6)?
2. Are there other recommendations that the Committee would make?

I. Executive Summary
The most recent technical study for the City of Bozeman’s transportation impact fees was
completed in 2012. The City retained Tindale Oliver to prepare an update study to reflect
changes to cost, credit, and demand components since the last technical study. Additionally, this
update study transitions the roadway impact fee into a multi-modal impact fee, providing
additional flexibility to fund capital infrastructure for stand-alone transit, bicycle, and pedestrian
facilities, in addition to roads. It should be noted that figures included in this study represent the
technically defensible level of impact fees that the City could charge; however, the City may
choose to discount fees as a policy decision.
An impact fee is a one-time capital charge levied against new development to fund infrastructure
capacity consumed by new growth. Impact fee revenue can only be used for capacity expansion
projects and not for expenses related to replacement, maintenance, or operations.
The methodology used to update City’s impact fee program is a consumption-based impact fee
methodology, which has also been used to calculate the City’s adopted impact fees. A
consumption-based impact fee charges new development based upon the burden placed on
services from each land use (demand). A consumption-based impact fee is intended to charge
new growth the proportionate share of the cost of providing additional infrastructure available
for use by new growth. In addition, consistent with the requirements of the Montana enabling
legislation, a credit is subtracted from the total cost to account for the value of future non-impact
fee revenue contributions (taxes, user fees, etc.) of the new development toward the
construction of capacity expansion projects when non-impact fee funding is used to build capital
facilities.
Consistent with the City’s adopted impact fee methodology, the primary steps involved in the
update of the transportation impact fee included the following:
Review of the travel demand characteristics of land uses
Review of recent cost data related to transportation capacity expansion
Review of funding sources used for transportation capacity expansion projects
Calculation of the updated multi-modal transportation impact fee
Table ES-1 provides a summary of the calculated fees.

II. Introduction
The City of Bozeman’s transportation impact fee was most recently updated in 2012 and has
been indexed annually to keep up with inflation. The City’s Street Impact Fee Ordinance
(Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC), Chapter 3.24.050 – Street Impact Fees) was adopted in 1996.
The impact fee ordinance was imposed to assist the City in providing adequate transportation
facilities needed to accommodate the roadway capacity consumed by new development. The
primary purpose of the roadway system is to provide mobility with the additional role of ensuring
public safety by providing access for fire and ambulance response vehicles. In addition, the
roadway system provides the transportation capacity needed to serve new development. The
City of Bozeman has retained Tindale Oliver to prepare an update study to reflect changes to the
cost, credit and demand components since 2012.
In addition, the City is interested in converting the current roadway-based transportation impact
fee to a multi-modal fee. A multi-modal fee shares the same basic principles as a roadway impact
fee except that it provides additional flexibility to fund capital infrastructure for transit facilities
as well as stand-alone bicycle and pedestrian facilities, in addition to roads. The City’s current
fee structure allows for bike/ped improvements, but only when they accompany a roadway
capacity expansion improvement. A multi-modal fee expands funding flexibility to add sidewalks
and bicycle lanes to existing roads as well as construct transit amenities, and reflects new
development’s impact on the entire transportation system (excluding rail and interstate
facilities).
Methodology
The methodology used for the multi-modal transportation impact fee study follows a
consumption-based impact fee approach in which new development is charged based upon the
proportion of person-miles of travel (PMT) that each unit of new development is expected to
consume of a lane-mile of the transportation network. The multi-modal impact fee incorporates
the entire network of transportation within the city, including city, county and state roads, as
well and transit, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities, but excludes limited access facilities and rail,
which require large scale investments and are not typically funded with impact fees. The fee is
assessed on all new development within the City limits and revenues are restricted to be used
for capacity expansion improvements inside the City.
DRAFT
Tindale Oliver City of Bozeman
May 2018 4 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
Examples of capacity expansion projects that are eligible to be funded with impact fee revenues
include new roadway construction, road lane addition, intersection improvements, addition of
sidewalks and bicycle lanes to existing roadways, construction of transit amenities, among
others. As long as these facilities are located on classified collector and arterial roadways (not
on local, neighborhood roads), impact fee revenues can be used to fund these types of capacity
expansion projects. In the case of roadways and intersections, the level of service standards
included in the City’s Transportation Master Plan are based on Highway Capacity Manual. As
outlined in the Manual, capacities incorporated into levels of service (LOS) standards are based
on properly functioning intersections. The Manual defines LOS standards of A through F for both
roadways and intersections. In other words, intersection movements are an integral part of
roadway capacity and it is not possible to achieve a given LOS without the intersections operating
at least at the same level or better. Finally, intersections that function efficiently result in higher
capacity per lane mile, which in turn reduces the impact fee. If the intersections do not operate
as they should, the achieved capacity decreases, which in turn increases the fee. As such,
intersection improvements are an integral part of achieving additional capacity and are eligible
to be funded completely with impact fee revenues.
Included in this document is the necessary support material used in the calculation of the
transportation impact fee. The general equation used to compute the impact fee for a given land
use is:
[Demand x Cost] – Credit = Fee
The “demand” for travel placed on a transportation system is expressed in units of Vehicle-Miles
of Travel (VMT) (daily vehicle-trip generation rate x the trip length x the percent new trips [of
total trips]) for each land use contained in the impact fee schedule. Trip generation represents
the average daily rates since new development consumes trips on a daily basis. The VMT is
converted to PMT using the person-trip factor.
The “cost” of building new capacity typically is expressed in units of dollars per person-mile of
transportation capacity. Under the consumption-based approach, impact fee calculations are
based on the marginal cost of adding capacity and do not include cost associated with improving
existing deficiencies.
The “credit” is an estimate of future non-impact fee revenues generated by new development
that are allocated to provide roadway capacity expansion. The impact fee is considered to be an
“up front” payment for a portion of the cost of building a person-mile of capacity that is
DRAFT
Tindale Oliver City of Bozeman
May 2018 5 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
reasonably related to the amount of capacity consumed by each unit of land use contained in the
impact fee schedule, that is not paid for by future tax revenues generated by the new
development activity. These credits are required under the supporting case law for the
calculation of impact fees where a new development activity must be reasonably assured that
they are not paying, or being charged, twice for the same level of service. The input variables
used in the fee equation are as follows:
Demand Variables:
Trip generation rate
Trip length
Percent new trips
Vehicle-trips to person-trips factor
Cost Variables:
Transportation cost per person-mile
Transportation capacity per person-mile
Credit Variables:

Legal Compliance Overview
Section 7-6-1602 MCA established the requirements in state law for documentation for the
development of an impact fee. That statute leaves to the judgement of each community where
each piece of information is organized. Table 1 lists each element and shows where in the City
of Bozeman documentation of facility planning and fee calculation the required item is provided.
The listed section(s) is a primary, but not exclusive, location where the subject is discussed.
Collectively, the facility plan, design standards and specifications policy, fee study, capital
improvement program, unified development ordinance, and impact fee ordinance satisfy the
required documentation. All reference documents are available through the City offices.

III. Demand Component
Travel Demand
The amount of transportation system consumed by a unit of new land development is calculated
using the following variables and is a measure of the person-miles of new travel a unit of
development places on the existing transportation system:
Number of daily trips generated;
Average length of those trips; and
Proportion of travel that is new travel, rather than travel that is already on the
transportation system.
The trip characteristics variables were primarily obtained from two sources: (1) similar studies
conducted locally in Bozeman and outside of Bozeman (Trip Characteristics Database) and (2) the
Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation reference report (10th Edition). The
Trip Characteristics Studies Database is included in Appendix A. This database was used to
determine trip length, percent new trips, and the trip generation rate for several land uses.
Conversion of Vehicle-Trips to Person-Trips
In the case of the multi-modal approach, it is necessary to estimate travel in units of person-
miles. Vehicle-trips were converted to person-trips by applying a vehicle-trip to person-trip
conversion factor of 1.30, which accounts for the average number of persons occupying a car.
This value was derived from vehicle occupancy trend data in the 2009 National Household Travel
Survey (NHTS).
Interstate Adjustment Factor
This variable was used to recognize that interstate highway improvements are funded by the
State (specifically, the Montana Department of Transportation) using earmarked State and
Federal funds. The calculated multi-modal fees do not charge for the travel on these facilities
and similarly, the impact fee calculations do not account for cost of or future revenues that will
be spent on these facilities. Typically, impact fees are not used to pay for interstate
DRAFT
Tindale Oliver City of Bozeman
May 2018 9 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
improvements and, therefore, the associated demand, cost, and credit are eliminated from the
impact fee calculation.
The interstate adjustment factor was calculated using the projected 2040 VMT provided in the
Bozeman Transportation Model. The projected VMT values were summarized based on the
jurisdiction of each roadway segment, resulting in a 19.9 percent adjustment factor calculated
for travel on I-90. By applying this factor to the total VMT for each land use, the reduced VMT is
then representative of only the roadways which can be funded by transportation impact fees.
Appendix A, Table A-1 provides further detail on this calculation.
Local Trip Length Adjustment Factor
Tindale Oliver conducted local trip characteristics studies in Bozeman in 2008 for residential,
office, and retail land uses. Results of these studies are presented in Appendix A. Based on these
local studies, trip length adjustment factors were applied to remaining residential and non-
residential land uses that were not studied, to reflect the local travel characteristics. These
adjustment factors were applied to trip length data from the trip characteristics database
(included in Appendix A).
Single Family trip length reduction factor of 53% was applied to the following land uses:
Group quarters
Assisted living
Lodging
University/college
Hospital
Office trip length reduction factor of 43% was applied to the following land uses:
Elementary school

Trip Exchange District (TED) Discount Factor
Downtown TED:
Bozeman has identified the downtown core as a “trip exchange district” meaning that this area
has different travel characteristics than the rest of the city. The downtown TED corresponds with
lower consumption of transportation capacity per unit of development due to the following
factors:
Shared and consolidated parking.
High degree of pedestrian and bicycle access to and throughout the TED.
Public transit availability.
Extensive trip capture between businesses. Person will make a single vehicle trip and visit
multiple establishments.
Currently, Bozeman reduces impact fees for new development within the downtown TED by 29
percent.
The downtown TED reduction factor was reviewed and compared to the internal capture ranges
from several recent research studies on mixed-use development internal trip capture due to the
mix of uses and design characteristics of these types of developments. Table 2 presents a
summary of the findings.
As shown in Table 2, the range of internal capture reductions range from 0 to 62 percent. The
current reduction factor of 29 percent falls within the range of the research studies results.
The Downtown TED boundary is presented in Map 1.

University TED:
In 2014/2015, the City of Bozeman recognized an additional TED district encompassing the
Montana State University (MSU) campus and some peripheral private development land. The
University TED boundary is presented in Map 2. A detailed transportation study1 was conducted
to assess internal capture and travel characteristics within this sub-area. This study concluded
that, similar to the downtown TED, the University TED benefits from high trip capture and above
average non-vehicle travel. The following reduction factors were determined for certain land
uses:
Non-Housing, private/near campus = 25%
Housing, private/near campus = 35%
Group Quarters, private/near campus = 59%
Non-Housing, MSU on campus = 31% office, 46% academic
Housing, MSU on campus = 44%
Group Quarters, MSU on campus = 62%
Similar to the adopted downtown reduction factor, the University TED factors fall within the
range of the mixed-use/internal capture observed in the research studies presented in Table 2.

IV. Cost Component
This section examines the construction costs of transportation capacity-expansion improvements
within the City of Bozeman.
City Roadway Cost
This section examines the right-of-way (ROW), construction, and other cost components
associated with city roads with respect to capacity-expansion improvements in Bozeman. For
this purpose, recent bid data and cost estimates for future improvements were reviewed to
provide supporting cost data for city roadway improvements. The cost for each roadway capacity
project was separated into two phases: ROW and construction.
Right-of-Way
The ROW cost reflects the total cost of the acquisitions along a corridor that were necessary to
have sufficient cross-section width to widen an existing road or, in the case of new construction,
to build a new road. Based on discussions with City staff, a 10 percent ROW-to-construction
factor was determined for impact fee purposes. This factor reflects that most ROW is acquired
through annexations or is readily available, but accounts for the occasional acquisitions that the
City is forced to purchase for critical improvements.
Construction
The construction cost for city roads was based on a review of projected improvements in the
City’s Transportation Master Plan. The TMP project list totaled over 31 lane miles of committed
and recommended city road improvements, averaging $2.8 million per lane mile. These
improvements include associated intersection improvements that would accompany the
roadway expansion and improve capacity. As mentioned previously, LOS values used in the
Transportation Master Plan are determined by using the methods defined in the Highway
Capacity Manual. The Highway Capacity Manual states that a roadway corridor’s LOS, which is
measured by free flow travel speeds and delay, is contingent upon the performance of the
boundary intersections. Without the associated intersection improvements, the benefit from an
improved roadway segment will be severely limited. Additionally, the capacity of certain
corridors can be improved by solely improving the boundary intersections.
Based on this review, a city road construction cost of $2.8 million per lane mile was used in the
multi-modal transportation impact fee calculation. Additional detail is provided in Appendix B.

State Roadway Cost
This section examines the right-of-way (ROW), construction, and other cost components
associated with state roads with respect to capacity-expansion improvements in Bozeman. For
this purpose, cost estimates for future state roadway improvements was reviewed. The cost for
each roadway capacity project was separated into two phases: ROW and construction.
Right-of-Way
The ROW cost factor for state roads was assumed to be the same as the factor for city roads (10
percent of construction).
Construction
A review of the City’s Transportation Master Plan identified over 27 lane miles of committed and
recommended state road improvements, averaging approximately $3.2 million per lane mile.
These improvements include associated intersection improvements that would accompany the
roadway expansion and improve capacity.
Based on this review, a state road construction cost of $3.2 million per lane mile was used in the
multi-modal transportation impact fee calculation. Additional detail is provided in Appendix B.
Summary of Costs (Blended Cost Analysis)
The weighted average cost per lane mile for city and state roads is presented in Table 3. The cost
figures shown include both the construction cost and the ROW cost, as discussed previously. The
resulting weighted average cost of approximately $3.3 million per lane mile was utilized as the
cost input in the calculation of the multi-modal transportation impact fee schedule. The
weighted average cost per lane mile includes city and state roads and is based on weighting the
lane miles of roadway improvements in the Bozeman Transportation Master Plan.

Person-Miles of Capacity Added per Lane Mile (Roadways)
An additional component on the impact fee equation is the capacity added per lane mile (also
known as the maximum service volume added per lane mile) of roadway construction. To
calculate the vehicle-miles of capacity (VMC) per lane mile of future roadways, an analysis of the
Bozeman Transportation Master Plan was conducted to review future planned improvements
within the City of Bozeman. As shown in Table 4, the VMC was then converted to person-miles
of capacity (PMC) using the person-trip factor (1.30 persons per vehicle) previously discussed.

Cost per Person-Mile of Capacity Added (Roadways)
The transportation cost per unit of development is assessed based on the cost per person-mile
of capacity (PMC). As shown in Tables 3 and 4, the cost and capacity for roadways in the City of
Bozeman have been calculated based on typical roadway improvements. As shown in Table 5,
the cost per PMC for travel within the City is $319.
The cost per PMC figure is used in the transportation impact fee calculation to determine the
total multi-modal cost per unit of development based on the person-miles of travel consumed.
For each person-mile of travel that is added to the transportation system, approximately $319 of
transportation capacity is consumed.

3) Average PMC added per lane mile (Item 2) divided by cost per lane mile (Item 1)
Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Costs
Bicycle and pedestrian facilities provide for relatively small quantities of the total vehicle-miles
of travel due to the difference in the average distance traveled by a car trip versus
pedestrian/bicycle trips. Because of their relatively small role in the urban travel scheme, they
do not have a significant effect on evaluating the costs of providing for mobility. However, bike
and pedestrian facilities are important and provide a source of travel for those who cannot drive
or cannot afford to drive, and they are a standard part of an urban street design. Their costs are
included in the standard roadway cross-sections for which costs are estimated for safety and
mobility reasons. Thus, the costs of these facilities on major roads are included in the multi-
modal transportation fee. The multi-modal fee provides funding for only those bike and
pedestrian facilities associated with roadways on the classified road system (excluding
local/neighborhood roads), and allows for facilities to be added to existing classified roadways or
included in the construction of a new classified roadway or lane addition improvement.

Transit Capital Cost per Person-Mile of Travel
A model for transit service and cost was developed to establish both the capital cost per person-
mile of capacity and the system operating characteristics in terms of system coverage, hours of
service, and headways. The model developed for Bozeman was based on information from the
Streamline Bus System. Components of the transit capital cost include:
Vehicle acquisition tied to new routes
Bus stops, shelters, and benches
Cost of road network used by transit vehicles
Transit capital costs are computed as the cost of capital features needed to expand the transit
system, as follows:
Transit Capital Cost = Bus Infrastructure Cost + Road Capacity Cost
Taking into account the infrastructure costs and the decline in potential vehicle-capacity that
comes with adding transit, it was determined that the difference between constructing a lane
mile of roadway (for cars only) versus constructing a roadway with transit is not significant.
The roadway with transit cost per PMC is less than three (3) percent higher per lane mile than
the cost to simply construct a road without transit amenities. Therefore, for the multimodal
transportation impact fee calculation, the cost per PMC of approximately $319 is representative
of the cost to provide transportation capacity for all modes of travel. Additional information
regarding the transit capital cost calculation is included in Appendix B, Table B-4.

V. Credit Component
Capital Improvement Credit
The present value of the portion of non-impact fee funding generated by new development over
a 25-year period that is expected to be expended on capacity expansion projects was credited
against the cost of the system consumed by travel associated with new development. In order
to provide a connection to the demand component that is measured in terms of travel, non-
impact fee dollars are converted to a gas tax equivalency.
City
As shown in Table 6, the City of Bozeman spends approximately $1.9 million per year (or the
equivalent of 3.8 pennies of fuel tax revenue) on transportation capacity-expansion projects
funded with non-impact fee revenues. Additional detail is provided in Appendix C, Table C-2.
County
As indicated in the FY 2018 Gallatin County budget, all non-impact fee transportation revenues
are allocated to maintenance expenditures, therefore, no capital improvement credit is included
in the multi-modal transportation impact fee calculation.
State
As shown in Table 6, State expenditures in Bozeman were reviewed, indicating expenditures of
approximately $1.1 million per year (2.3 equivalent pennies of fuel tax revenue) was given for
the capacity-expansion portion attributable to state transportation improvements. This review
included several years of historical expenditures, including only those improvements located
inside the city limits and tied to a capacity-expansion improvement. Additional detail is provided
in Appendix C, Table C-3.

Present Worth Variables
Facility Life
The facility life used in the impact fee analysis is 25 years, which represents the reasonable life
of a roadway.
Interest Rate
This is the discount rate at which gasoline tax revenues might be bonded. It is used to compute
the present value of the gasoline taxes generated by new development. The discount rate of 3.0
percent was used in the multi-modal transportation impact fee calculation based on information
obtained from the City of Bozeman.
Fuel Efficiency
The fuel efficiency (i.e., the average miles traveled per gallon of fuel consumed) of the fleet of
motor vehicles was estimated using the quantity of gasoline consumed by travel associated with
a particular land use.
Appendix C, Table C-6 documents the calculation of the fuel efficiency value based on the
following equation, where “VMT” is vehicle-miles of travel and “MPG” is fuel efficiency in terms
of miles per gallon.

The methodology uses non-interstate VMT and average fuel efficiency data for passenger
vehicles (i.e., passenger cars and other 2-axle, 4-tire vehicles, such as vans, pickups, and SUVs)
and large trucks (i.e., single-unit, 2-axle, 6-tire or more trucks and combination trucks) to
calculate the total gallons of fuel used by each of these vehicle types.
The combined total VMT for the vehicle types is then divided by the combined total gallons of
fuel consumed to calculate, in effect, a “weighted” fuel efficiency value that appropriately
accounts for the existing fleet mix of traffic on non-interstate roadways. The VMT and average
fuel efficiency data were obtained from the most recent Highway Statistics 2016 (Federal
Highway Administration). Based on the calculation completed in Appendix C, Table C-6, the fuel
efficiency rate to be used in the updated multi-modal transportation impact fee equation is 18.74
miles per gallon.
Effective Days per Year
An effective 365 days per year of operation was assumed for all land uses in the calculated fee.
However, this will not be the case since some land uses operate only on weekdays (e.g., office
buildings) and/or only seasonally (e.g., schools). The use of 365 days per year, therefore, over-
estimates actual consumption and provides a conservative estimate, ensuring that gasoline taxes
are adequately credited against the fee.

VI. Calculated Multi-Modal Transportation Impact Fee
The multi-modal transportation impact fee calculations for each land use are included in
Appendix D, which includes the major land use categories and the calculated impact fees for the
individual land uses contained in each of the major categories. For each land use, Appendix D
illustrates the following:
Demand component variables (trip rate, trip length, percent new trips, and person-trip
factor)
Total multi-modal cost
Annual gas tax credit
Present value of the gas tax credit
Net multi-modal transportation impact fee
It should be noted that the net multimodal transportation impact fee illustrated in Appendix D is
not necessarily a recommended fee, but instead represents a technically documented multi-
modal transportation impact fee per unit of land use that could be charged in the City of
Bozeman.
For clarification purposes, it may be useful to walk through the calculation of a multi-modal fee
for one of the land use categories. In the following example, the net multi-modal impact fee rate
is calculated for the Residential (1,801-2,000 sq ft) land use (ITE LUC 210) using information from
the calculated multi-modal fee schedule included in Appendix D, Table D-1. For each land use
category, the following equations are utilized to calculate the net multi-modal fee:
Net Multi-Modal Fee = Total Multi-Modal Cost – Gas Tax Credit
Where:
Total Multi-Modal Cost = ([Trip Rate x Assessable Trip Length x % New Trips] / 2) x (1 –
Interstate Adjustment Factor) x (Person-Trip Factor) * (Cost per Person-Mile of Capacity)
Gas Tax Credit = Present Value (Annual Gas Tax), given a 3.0% interest rate & a 25-year facility
life
Annual Gas Tax = ([Trip Rate x Total Trip Length x % New Trips] / 2) x (Effective Days per Year x
$/Gallon to Capital) / Fuel Efficiency

Each of the inputs has been discussed previously in this document; however, for purposes of this
example, brief definitions for each input are provided in the following paragraphs, along with the
actual inputs used in the calculation of the fee for the residential (1,801-2,000 sq ft) land use
category:
Trip Rate = the average daily trip generation rate, in vehicle-trips/day (8.31)
Assessable Trip Length = the actual average trip length for the category, in vehicle-miles
(3.31)
Total Trip Length = the assessable trip length plus an adjustment factor of half a mile,
which is added to the trip length to account for the fact that gas taxes are collected for
travel on all roads, including local roads (3.31 + 0.50 = 3.81)
% New Trips = adjustment factor to account for the trips that are already on the roadway
(100%)
Divide by 2 = the total daily miles of travel generated by a particular (i.e., rate * length *
% new trips) is divided by two to prevent the double-counting of travel generated among
land use codes since every trip has an origin and a destination
Person-Trip Factor = Converts vehicle-miles of travel to person-miles of travel (1.30)
Interstate Adjustment Factor = discount factor to account for the travel demand occurring
on interstate highways (19.9%)
Cost per Person-Mile of Capacity = unit of person-miles of capacity consumed per unit of
development ($319.18)
Effective Days per Year = 365 days
$/Gallon to Capital = the amount of gas tax revenue per gallon of fuel that is used for
capital improvements, in $/gallon ($0.061)
Fuel Efficiency = average fuel efficiency of vehicles, in vehicle-miles/gallon (18.74)
Present Value = calculation of the present value of a uniform series of cash flows, gas tax
payments in this case, given an interest rate, “I”, and a number of periods, “n;” for 3.0%
interest and a 25-year facility life, the uniform series present worth factor is 17.4131

Multi-Modal Transportation Impact Fee Calculation
Using these inputs, a net multi-modal impact fee can be calculated for the residential (1,801-
2,000 sq ft) land use category:
Total Multi-Modal Cost = ([8.31 * 3.31 * 1.0] /2) * (1 – 0.199) * 1.30 * ($319.18) = $4,571
Annual Gas Tax = ([8.31 * 3.81 * 1.0] /2) * 365 * ($0.061 /18.74) = $19
Revenue Credit = $19 * 17.4131 = $331
Net Multi-Modal Transportation Impact Fee = $4,571 - $331 = $4,240

VII. Impact Fee Revenue Projections
Between 2006 and 2017, the City has generated approximately $2.5 million per year in
transportation impact fee revenue projections, reaching over $4 million per year in 2015 and
2016, as shown in Table 7. Since 2012, the annual transportation impact fee collections averaged
$3.2 million. The City’s Transportation Master Plan estimates approximately $2.9 million per year
for planning purposes.

Revenue projections for the multi-modal transportation impact fee are based on a review of
recent permitting activity and estimated growth levels for the City of Bozeman. Using the
calculated MMTIF rates presented in this report, the City is likely to generate an average of $3.5
million to $5.0 million per year through 2040, or a total of $80 million to $115 million over the
next 23 years. These figures are in 2018 dollars without any indexing or fee adjustments.

Finally, it should be noted that for impact fee purposes, revenue projections serve only as an
overall guideline in planning future infrastructure needs. In their simplest form, impact fees
charge each unit of new growth for the net cost (total cost less credits) of infrastructure needed
to serve that unit of growth. Theoretically, if the growth rates remain high, the City will have
more impact fee revenues to fund growth related projects sooner rather than later. If growth
rates slow down, less revenue will be generated and the timing and need for future infrastructure
improvements will be later rather than sooner.

VIII. Impact Fee Benefit Districts
Impact fee benefit districts are boundaries that dictate where the impact fee revenues can be
spent to ensure that the fee payers receive the associated benefit. These differ from fee districts,
which dictate the impact fee rate that is charged. Fee districts are based on technical data to
justify different fee rates. In Bozeman, an example would be the lower rates calculated for the
trip exchange district (TED).
Benefit district boundaries typically follow geographical man-made or natural barriers to
transportation. In the case of most counties, there are multiple benefit districts due to larger
geographic areas. In the case of most cities, due to the relatively small geographical footprint,
the entire city is considered as a single benefit district, which is also the case for Bozeman. As
such, impact fees collected from new development may be spent on transportation capacity
expansion improvements anywhere within the city limits.

Trip Characteristics Database
The Trip Characteristics Database includes over 200 studies on 40 different residential and non-
residential land uses collected over the last 25 years. Data from these studies include trip
generation, trip length, and percent new trips for each land use. This information has been used
in the development of impact fees and the creation of land use plan category trip characteristics
for communities throughout the U.S.
Tindale Oliver estimates trip generation rates for land uses in a roadway impact fee schedule
using data from studies in the Trip Characteristics Studies (TCS) Database and the Institute of
Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation reference report (10th edition). In instances,
when both ITE Trip Generation reference report (10th edition) and TCS trip generation rate (TGR)
data are available for a particular land use, the data is typically blended to increase the sample

size and provide a more valid estimate of the average number of trips generated per unit of
development.
The trip generation rate for each respective land use is calculated using machine counts that
record daily traffic into and out of the site studied. The traffic count hoses are set at entrances
to residential subdivisions for the residential land uses and at all access points for non-residential
land uses.
The trip length information is obtained through origin-destination surveys that ask respondents
where they came from prior to arriving at the site and where they intended to go after leaving
the site. The results of these surveys were used to estimate average trip length by land use.
The percent new trip variable is based on assigning each trip collected through the origin-
destination survey process a trip type (primary, secondary, diverted, and captured). The percent
new trip variable is then calculated as 1 minus the percentage of trips that are captured.
Square Footage Definitions:
For residential land uses, the fees are assessed on a per unit basic, but are tiered by size. The
related square footage (SF) excludes unfinished attics, carports, attached garaged, porches that
are not protected from the weather (such as screened porches) and mobile home hitches. Both
finished and unfinished basements are included.
For non-residential land uses, two types of square footage are used based on the data available
from the ITE. The following paragraphs provide a definition of each type and the calculated fee
schedule shown in Table D-1 indicates the appropriate type of square footage for each non-
residential land use.
Gross Floor Area (GFA): the sum of the area of each floor level of a building (expressed in
square feet), including cellars, basements, mezzanines, penthouses, corridors, lobbies,
stores, and offices, that are within the principal outside faces of exterior walls, not
including architectural setbacks or projections. Included are all areas that have floor
surfaces with clear standing head room (6 ft. 6 in. minimum) regardless of their use. With
the exception of buildings containing enclosed malls or atriums, GFA is equal to gross
leasable area and gross rentable area. Occupied gross floor area refers to GFA within the
facility which is currently being utilized. If a ground-level area, or part thereof, within the
DRAFT
Tindale Oliver City of Bozeman
May 2018 A-3 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
principal outside faces of the exterior walls is not enclosed, this floor area is considered
part of the overall GFA of the building. However, unroofed areas and unenclosed roofed-
over spaces, except those contained within the principal outside faces of exterior walls,
would be excluded from the area calculations. For the purpose of trip generation
calculation, the floor area of all parking garages within the building should not be included
in the GFA of the entire building. The majority of land uses in the Trip Generation Manual
use GFA as an independent variable.
Gross Leasable Area (GLA): the total floor area designed for tenant occupancy and
exclusive use, including and basements, mezzanines, or upper floors, expressed in square
feet and measured from the centerline of joint partitions and from outside wall faces. For
the purpose of trip generation calculation, the floor area of all parking garages within the
building should not be included within the GLA of the entire building. GLA is the area for
which tenants pay rent; it is the area that produces income for the property
owner. Occupied gross leasable area refers to GLA within the facility which is currently in
use. Leased space that is not in productive use is not considered occupied. In the retail
business, GLA lends itself readily to measurement and comparison and it has been
adopted by the shopping center industry as its standard for statistical
comparison. Accordingly, GLA is used in the Trip Generation Manual for shopping
centers. For specialty retail, strip centers, discount stores and freestanding retail
facilities, GLA usually equals GFA.

American Housing Survey (AHS) to examine overall trip-making characteristics of households in
the United States.
Table A-2 presents that trip characteristics being utilized in the proposed multimodal
transportation impact fee schedule for the residential land use. These variables are based on five
local trip characteristics studies conducted in Bozeman (details on page A-2 and A-3). The data
for single and multi-family developments was averaged to reflect the 50/50 split in single and
multi-family permitting that the City has experienced in recent years. The 2009 NHTS database
was used to assess average annual household vehicle miles of travel (VMT) for various annual
household income levels. In addition, the 2015 AHS database was used to compare median
annual family/household incomes with housing unit size. It is important to recognize that the
use of the income variable in each of these databases is completed simply to provide a
convenient linking mechanism between household VMT from the NHTS and housing unit size
from the AHS.

Calculated Single Family Trip Characteristics

The results of the NHTS and AHS analyses are included in Tables A-3 and A-4. First, the data
shown in Table A-3 presents that average income in the U.S. for families/households living in
various housing tiers.

May 2018 A-7 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
To calculate a corresponding trip rate for the new tiers, it was necessary to rely on comparative
ratios. As an example, consider the $66,193 annual income category. First, it was determined
that the average annual household VMT for this income level is 25,352 miles. This figure was
then compared to the overall average annual VMT per household in the U.S. and normalized to
the average of $57,146 (23,482 miles) category to derive a ratio of 1.080, as shown in Table A-4.
Next, the normalized ratio was applied to the daily VMT for the average residential housing unit
size of 1,500 to 1,999 square feet. This range is estimated to correspond with the average
household size of typical construction in Bozeman. As shown in Figure A-1, the average size of
single family homes has been increasing in recent years, typically averaging over 2,000 sq ft.
However, since this land use category is representative of all residential development, the
average trip generation rate of 8.19 (as shown in Table A-2) was tied to the 1,500-1,999 sq ft tier.
This reflects that multi-family units are typically smaller (approximately 60% of single family) and
have been accounting for half of the cities recent permitting.

Appendix B: Cost Component
This appendix presents the detailed calculations for the cost component of the multi-modal
transportation impact fee. Supporting data and estimates are provided for all cost variables,
including:
Right-of-Way
Construction
Roadway Capacity
Transit Capital Costs
Right-of-Way
The ROW cost reflects the total cost of the acquisitions along a corridor that was necessary to
have sufficient cross-section width to widen an existing road or, in the case of new construction,
build a new road.
City Roadways
For impact fee purposes, the ROW cost for city roads was estimated as a percentage of the
construction cost per lane mile. This factor was developed through discussions with City staff
regarding recent and planned acquisitions. For many improvements, the City is able to acquire
ROW inexpensively through annexations or the land is readily available. However, in certain
cases, large tracts must be purchased for critical improvements. Through these discussions, it
was estimated that ROW costs are, on average, equivalent to 10 percent of the construction cost
of a capacity-expansion improvement.
State Roadways
The ROW factor for state roads was assumed to be the same as the factor determined for city
roads.
Construction
The construction cost estimates that follow include construction, design, construction
administration, utilities, and contingency cost elements for capacity expansion.

City Roadways
As shown in Table B-1, the Transportation Master Plan’s committed and recommended
improvement list was reviewed to determine a cost per lane mile for city roadway improvements.
As show, for city roads, the estimated construction cost is approximately $2.8 million per lane
mile.
State Roadways
Similar to city roads, the construction cost for state roads was determined through a review of
the TMP’s committed and recommended list of improvements. As shown in Table B-1, for state
roads, the estimated construction cost is approximately $3.2 million per lane mile.

Roadway Capacity
As shown in Table B-2, the average capacity per lane-mile was based on the projects in the
Bozeman Transportation Master Plan’s committed and recommended projects lists. The listing
of projects reflects the mix of improvements that will yield the vehicle-miles of capacity (VMC)
that will be built in the City of Bozeman. The initial and future capacity values are based on the
planning level estimates provided in the Bozeman Transportation Master Plan, Table 2.7, with an
adjustment of 25 percent, based on discussions with City staff. This adjustment reflects that
future improvements are designed to account for such factors as limiting direct access points to
a facility, provided adequate roadway geometrics, and improving sight distance. The resulting
weighted average capacity per lane mile of approximately 7,900 was used in the multi-modal
transportation impact fee calculation.

Transit Capital Costs
To convert the roadway impact fee into a multi-modal fee, the marginal cost of adding transit
infrastructure is considered. This section details the difference in cost per person-mile of capacity
between expanding a roadway without transit amenities versus expanding a roadway with transit
amenities. This calculation also accounts for the change in roadway PMC that occurs when a bus
is on the road.
Table B-3 calculates the person-miles of capacity added for each new transit vehicle on the road.
This calculation adjusts for the fact that buses have a significantly higher person-capacity than
passenger vehicles. This table also identifies transit capital cost variables that will be used to
calculate the added capital cost of constructing/expanding a roadway with transit facilities.
Table B-4 combines the roadway VMC and the transit PMC to calculate the marginal change in
cost per PMC. First, the roadway characteristics, including cost and capacity, were used to
calculate the roadway cost per VMC for a generic 8-mile roadway segment. Then, an adjustment
factor was applied to recognize that incorporating transit along a segment of roadway decreases
the vehicle-capacity as the bus makes intermittent stops and interrupts the free-flowing traffic.
As shown in Table B-4, the bus blockage adjustment factor is much higher for a 2-lane roadway
than for a 4-lane roadway. On a 2-lane road, all cars get caught behind the bus during a stop,
while on a 4-lane roadway, there is an unobstructed travel lane that cars can use to pass-by or
maneuver around the slower transit vehicle. This adjusted VMC was then converted to PMC
using the vehicle-miles to person-miles adjustment factor previously discussed in this report. The
additional person-capacity from the buses was added to the adjusted roadway PMC. The person-
miles of capacity that a transit system would add to the stretch of roadway (Table B-4) mitigates
the decrease in vehicle-miles of capacity due to the bus blockage adjustments.
Next, the capital cost of transit infrastructure was added to the capital cost of the roadway
expansion for both new road construction (0 to 2 lanes) and lane addition (2 to 4 lanes). With
the transit infrastructure included, the updated cost per PMC was calculated, which now reflects
the total cost of building a new road with transit, or expanding a roadway and adding transit
amenities. When compared to the cost per PMC for simply building/expanding a roadway
without transit, the added cost of transit is between one (1) percent and four (4) percent.
As a final step, the increased costs were then weighted by the lane mile distribution of new road
construction and lane addition improvements in the Bozeman Transportation Master Plan. As
DRAFT

May 2018 B-8 Transportation Impact Fee Update Study
shown, the plan calls for a higher number of lane addition improvements in the future. When
the marginal cost of transit is included and weighted by this ratio, the resulting percent change
is approximately 2.1 percent. Essentially, at a less than three percent cost difference, adding
transit does not have a significant effect on the cost per person-mile of capacity for new road
construction and lane addition improvements.
As it is currently structured, the transit model detailed in Tables B-3 and B-4 assumes that transit-
miles and road-miles will be added to the system at the same rate. If the City adds more transit-
miles, this would increase the bus traffic on existing roads, adding more stops, higher stop
frequency, and creating additional bus blockage. As a result, the capital cost per person-mile for
a roadway with transit would increase in relation to the ratio of added transit-miles vs. roadway-
miles. For example, if the transit-mile investment was double that of roadway
construction/expansion, the 2.0 percent change calculated in Table B-4 would increase to
approximately 4.0 percent. The annual construction figures for transit-miles and road-miles
should be tracked by the City and adjusted for in subsequent multi-modal fee update studies.

The methodology used to calculate the fuel tax distribution per penny of gas tax is based on the
following process summarized below and presented in Table C-1. Since the impact fee is based
on consumption of capacity on all roads, the revenue credit considers capital investment on city,
county, and state roadways.
Estimating the value per penny using the Highway State Special Revenue Fund;
Dividing the fuel tax revenue by 31.5 pennies;
Calculating the value per penny of gas tax;
Estimating the fuel tax distribution in Gallatin County based on the value per penny, per

County Capital Improvement Credit
A review of the Gallatin County FY 2018 budget indicated that road impact fees appear to be the
only revenue source earmarked for capacity enhancements. However, recent changes in the
collection of impact fees and the completion of several large projects have nearly exhausted the
existing fund balance. The budget indicates that the portion of the state fuel tax distributed to
the County is used to purchase materials and contracts for road maintenance. Therefore, the
multi-modal transportation impact fee calculations do not include a County credit due to all non-
impact fee revenue sources being spent on non-capacity improvements.
State Capital Improvement Credit
A review of historical state expenditures was conducted to calculate a credit for capacity
improvements funded by the Montana Department of Transportation. The projects identified,
as shown in Table C-5, include roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian improvements located within
the City of Bozeman. As shown in Table C-3, a total “gas tax equivalent” revenue credit of 2.3
pennies was given for MDT-funded transportation capacity-expansion improvements.

Illustration Only: The consultants have prepared, for informational purposes, the schedule of
Transportation Impact Fees using the stratified Residential Dwelling Unit method, under the
current Level of Service standard V/C = .53. This is NOT proposed as an update to the Draft –
but is provided as an illustration of the effect of the volume to capacity ratio on the adopted
impact fee. This would also require a change in the City’s existing Level of Service Standards.
