Home My WebLink AboutAdopt the Street Impact Fee Fund within the Recommed CIP Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Chris Kukulski, City Manager Anna Rosenberry, Finance Director SUBJECT: Adoption of Parts of the Recommended Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) for FY2012-2016 – STREET IMPACT FEE FUND Item Type: Consent MEETING DATE: January 3, 2011 RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the attached portion of the Capital Improvements Plan for FY2012-2016 for the Street Impact Fee Fund BACKGROUND: On December 13, 2010, we presented and discussed the attached plan for capital projects paid for with Street Impact Fees. No changes were made to these recommended schedules as a result of that meeting. Advisory Committee: The City’s Impact Fee Advisory Committee (IFAC) met on November 18th and November 23rd to develop and discuss these recommended schedules. The committee currently does not contain a quorum, so these recommendations were not formally voted on. FISCAL EFFECTS: This step in the process has no immediate fiscal effect – although scheduled impact fee projects may be eligible for impact fee credits under BMC 3.24.100. Once 90 adopted, the Capital Improvements Plan becomes the basis of the City Manager’s Recommended Budget for FY12. ALTERNATIVES: The attached plan can be modified, or not adopted at all.

Purchasing additional right-of-way is critical to expanding the capacity of streets in the city. This is deemed to be 100% impact fee eligible – as additional right-of-way is not required if we are not expanding the capacity of the street. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED 1. Condemn property for right-of-way; pay court costs as well as appraised value of property. Time consuming for city staff and a relatively expensive process. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Provides dollars for the purchase of necessary right-of-way as it becomes available on the market. Avoids the expensive, antagonistic condemnation process where possible. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Street Impact Fees can not be spent on operating and maintaining facilities. There is expected to be a very minimal, incremental cost to the Street Maintenance District from this expenditure.

This section of West College has already exceeded the volume of traffic it was projected to carry in 2020 according to the Transportation Plan. Planned improvements to South 19th and increased development in the South 19th corridor will only further increase traffic demand on this facility. Additionally this facility lacks pedestrian and bicycle facilities. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Use of Urban funds for full financing, CTEP grants if available. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Improved safety and capacity, both for motorized vehicles as well as bicycles and pedestrians. The use of street impact fee funds enables the community to leverage the available State Urban transportation funds to complete other projects and address more of the city’s pressing transportation needs.

This section of West College has already exceeded the volume of traffic it was projected to carry in 2010 according to the Transportation Plan. In the peak AM hour traffic is backed up from 19th to Huffine and beyond. Planned improvements to South 19th and increased development in the Huffine Lane corridor will only further increase traffic demand on this facility. In addition this facility lacks pedestrian and bicycle facilities.

This ~ 1/4 mile length of road needs to be improved with completed sidewalk, bike lanes, and additional driving/turning lanes. Incremental improvement of Durston Road with development projects may be possible, thus preventing a severe drop in service level similar to that experienced on West Babcock Street. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED SID for full financing, or incremental construction by developers. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Improved safety and capacity, both for motorized vehicles as well as bicycles and pedestrians. The use of street impact fee funds enables the community to leverage the available State Urban transportation funds to complete other projects and address more of the city’s pressing transportation needs. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Incremental increases in sweeping, plowing and general maintenance costs. Current cost estimate of $8,725 per street mile maintained annually. FUNDING SOURCES 60% - Street Impact Fees 40% SID or other funding. New Replacement Equipment Project 99 CIP Project Fund Impact Fees Streets PROJECT NUMBER SIF09 DEPARTMENT STREET IF PROJECT NAME KAGY (WILLSON TO 19TH) FY12 FY13 FY14 $650,000 FY15 $6,000,000 FY16 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Widen Kagy Boulevard and add turning lanes at key intersections. This portion of Kagy currently carries about 12,000 vehicles per day. The capacity this two lane street can reasonably carry is about 12,000 vehicles per day. Expansion of capacity will be needed in the foreseeable future to handle current and future traffic loads. Kagy serves as an important element of Bozeman's perimeter street system connecting Highland Blvd., Willson Ave. and S.19th. It also serves as the primary access to Montana State University and the University's major athletic facilities. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Pursue the use of Urban Funds. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Kagy is a State Urban Route and is eligible for expenditure of State urban funds designated annually for the City of Bozeman; however, the availability of urban funds cannot match the pace of the City's transportation improvement needs. The need for this project comes from increased traffic due to growth in the Bozeman area and the project is eligible for Impact Fee Funds. Use of Street Impact Funds enables the community to leverage the available State Urban transportation funds to complete projects and address more of its pressing transportation needs. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Incremental increases in sweeping, plowing and general maintenance costs. Current cost estimate of $8,725 per street mile maintained annually. FUNDING SOURCES Total Project: $6,650,000. 60% - Street Impact Fees = $3,990,000; 40% - Urban Funds = $2,660,000 New Replacement Equipment Project 100 CIP Project Fund Impact Fees Streets PROJECT NUMBER SIF19 DEPARTMENT STREET IF PROJECT NAME INTERSECTION CONTROL: 27TH & OAK FY12 $500,000 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Control of the intersection of 27th Avenue and Oak Street, a collector and an arterial. Recent development proposals indicate that the need for this improvement will soon be warranted. If a signal is chosen, there may be some emergency maintenance/repair events should the signal fail per an existing agreement with MDT, but in general this will be an MDT maintained signal. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Do nothing or consider other alternatives as suggested by the Montana Department of Transportation. Create an SID or identify and apply for other potential sources of funding (CMAQ…) ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Improved traffic flow and safety at this intersection.

This is an important connection for public safety purposes – allowing fire service to meet their response time requirements in areas where they currently cannot. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Do nothing and wait for development to connect the street. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Improved traffic flow and better emergency response to the local area. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Incremental increases in sweeping, plowing and general maintenance costs. Current cost estimate of $8,725 per street mile maintained annually. FUNDING SOURCES 100% Street Impact Fee – to be recovered by developer payback. New Replacement Equipment Project 103 CIP Project Fund Impact Fees Streets PROJECT NUMBER SIF22 DEPARTMENT STREET IF PROJECT NAME INTERSECTION CONTROL: COLLEGE & 8TH FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled $750,000 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT nstall improved control (roundabout or signal) at the intersection of West College Street and 8th Avenue, a minor arterial and a collector. This intersection has seen steadily increasing demand with the growth of MSU. The Draft 2007 Transportation Plan Update indicates that LOS issues are beginning to appear at this intersection. If a signal is chosen as the improvement, there may be some emergency maintenance/repair events should it fail per an existing agreement with MDT, but in general this would be an MDT maintained signal. This intersection improvement project will be identified as TSM 18 in the 2007 Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan Update.

FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled $7,600,000 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT This project consists of widening Highland Boulevard from the intersection with Main Street to the intersection with Ellis Street to a five-lane urban arterial standard, and from the intersection with Ellis Street south to the intersection with Kagy Boulevard to a three-lane urban arterial standard. This roadway is currently a minor arterial roadway with one travel lane in each direction. This project serves as a long-term need that will be necessary to accommodate future development patterns in the region and serve north-south traffic flow. It is expected that a minimum of two travel lanes in each direction from Main Street to Ellis Street, one travel lane in each direction from Ellis Street to Kagy Boulevard, bike lanes on each side, curb and gutter, boulevard, sidewalk, and a raised median will be required. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Use of Urban Funds, developer constructed or creation of an SID for full financing. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Increased capacity and safety in this corridor, both for motorized vehicles as well as bicycles and pedestrians. The use of street impact fees enables the community to leverage the available State Urban Funds to complete other needed projects. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Incremental increases in sweeping, plowing and general maintenance costs. Current cost estimate of $8,725 per street mile maintained annually. FUNDING SOURCES Estimated: 50% Street Impact fees ($3,600,000.00), and 50% Urban Funds, Special Improvement District (SID) or Other, $3,600,000.00.
