Home My WebLink About7 Wastewater Impact Fee Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Anna Rosenberry, Administrative Services Director SUBJECT: Adoption of the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for FY16-20. AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent MEETING DATE: December 8, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for FY16-20. BACKGROUND: Each year, the City Manager is required to prepare a 5 Year Capital Improvements Plan and submit it to the Commission by December 15th. The City’s Impact Fee Advisory Committee (IFAC) met on November 20th to review and make recommendations for the planned expenditures of Wastewater Impact Fees. There was not a quorum of the committee, however, those present made suggestions and asked that the schedules move forward to the Commission. 1. The WWIF15- Flanders Mill – Hidden Valley Trunk Main and Lift Station project to expand service in the West part of town (from the Huffine Lane area back to the Water Reclamation Facility). The early design, and identification and purchase of utility right- of-way could prove to save millions of dollars, if done before more development occurs in the area. With the recent annexations and subdivisions that have occurred in west area of town, it is felt that this project will need to move forward over the next 3 years. a. While the project is generally seen as entirely capacity expanding, there will not be cash on hand to construct. The Wastewater Utility will need to borrow money 52 for the project (a pledge by our rate-payers) with debt payments made by the Impact Fee Fund each year. 2. The Impact Fee portion of debt payments on the Water Reclamation Facility will be completed by the end of FY15, and therefore have been removed from the Capital Plan. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. If the Commission is does not wish to adopt this schedule tonight, it can be scheduled for approval on a later agenda. FISCAL EFFECTS: This step in the process has no fiscal effect. Once adopted, the Capital Improvements Plan becomes the basis of the City Manager’s Recommended Budget for FY16.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Limit future development in the area. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL If constructed to the line sizes master planned in the City’s Wastewater Facilities plan, capacity will be provided for anticipating the long-term future growth in this area. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Impact fees can not fund operating and maintenance costs. The city’s wastewater utility will pay for these costs, which are estimated to be a small increment of the city’s system as a whole.

The lower portion of the existing sewer is at capacity. Additional capacity is needed to serve the future Bozeman Deaconess Hospital development and lands to the south. It is estimated that 70% of this project costs will be due to capacity expansion and will be eligible for Wastewater Impact Fees. The remaining 30% of the project costs will need to be provided by a developer contribution or other source. At this time, the City’s Wastewater Utility does not have a need to replace the existing facility; as such, no utility dollars are scheduled to be spent. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Limit development to only that capacity of the existing sewer. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL This project will significantly increase the service area and capacity of the trunk sewer. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Impact fees can not fund operating and maintenance costs. The city’s wastewater utility will pay for these costs, which are estimated to be a small increment of the city’s system as a whole.

This is an important connection for public safety purposes – allowing fire service to meet their response time requirements in areas where they currently cannot. The Wastewater infrastructure should be installed at the same time the street connection is made. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Do nothing and wait for development to connect the infrastructure. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Improved traffic flow and better emergency response to the local area. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED FUNDING SOURCES 100% Wastewater Impact Fee – to be recovered by developer payback.

It also includes a Regional Lift Station located at the north of the alignment and the installation of the force-main necessary to complete the project. $200,000 in design costs and $13,300,000 in construction costs ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Limit development in the area served by this trunk sewer to that which can currently be served. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL This project will significantly increase the area which can be served by the City’s wastewater treatment infrastructure making development in this corridor possible. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual operating and maintenance costs. Impact fees may not be used to finance those costs. The City’s wastewater utility will pay for these costs which are estimated to be a small increment of the City’s system as a whole.
