HomeMy WebLinkAbout22.4.18 IFAC training - SlidesWill describe what impact fees are, mechanics of IF, and then role of IFAC.
1
State authorization for impact fees is general with performance standards. Local code fills
out the details.

As a fee, they are applicable to all users, ex. City pays its own fees. As a fee, only pay if you
use the service and add new demand.
Bozeman Impact Fees have been in place since 1996.
State authorizes six fees types directly and leaves open opportunity for others with
appropriate processes.
Equity – pay for self, not others; Projects not unnecessarily delayed, fees roughly
proportionate to demand for service, can’t be used to fix flaws, fees applicable to all
Concurrency – infrastructure to support growth provided along with growth
Fee payment process predictable rather than one‐off system exactions, avoids long delays
in installation, supports cost share projects that reduce total system cost.
Self adjusting for growth rates as fees respond to new construction.

Membership is up to local government so long as #2 is met.
IFAC meets assigned duties during annual CIP cycle and during Fee Study development. Will
address both shortly.
6
Impact fees are matched with other funding. Mix and match for best fit and outcomes. E.g.
CIL Water Rights for source, IF for large piping and treatment, Project related
improvements.
State and Federal standards shape much infrastructure. E.g. Clean Water Act, storage
requirements, DEQ and ARM ex 17.38.101 – what is a main, when is a main required, DEQ
circular 2‐ 226 pages – wastewater mains 10 feet from water pipes (38.31), 8 inch min pipe
diameter (33.1). Cross over to
Decision to install is long term – Wtr/Swr pipe expected 70+ year service life.

Example of how the same pipe may have elements of different funding and how IF might
divide that out. Ex. Blackwood Groves sewer ‐

Equity, concurrency, remove barriers, cost effectiveness of installation all with this one
project
Cost efficiency – not damage streets, not redo work, repeat traffic control and design costs
avoided.
Facility plan guides maximum sizing, minimum development standards direct the rest
9
Fee studies a key process to sort out what infrastructure meets IF criteria. – Calculating and
assessing role of IFAC
Fee studies are largely built on facility plans for future work and the Capital Improvement
Programs for various facilities.
Each fee is independent of the others and fee studies can proceed at different times.
10
Fee study breaks information down to unit costs per demand metric. In case of water that
is home size (connected to expected occupancy by size by people) or water meter size for
non‐residential uses.
11
Expending role of IFAC happens through CIP.
Draws from facility plans, developer requests, staff knowledge of community to form
recommendations.
12
Covers all City revenues, not just impact fees. Coordinate across funding sources. Ex.
Arterial and collector, transportation IF, stormwater, sewer, water, street maintenance
could all apply to different elements of one street project.
13
Single page summary for the fund.
Impact fees must have a positive balance at the close of the projected period.
14
Schedule of specific projects, estimated cost (finalized through design and bidding process),
and schedule of work.
Unscheduled projects helps identify likely next priorities for scheduling.
Staff nominates projects, private parties can also nominate projects for consideration. CC
decides.
15
Example project description detail. Why this one? Consequences.
16
Identify location of projects, combination of funding (dark green background shows AC)
with impact fees.
Note focus on infill support consistent with growth policy, completing networks supports
mobility options, reduces travel and emissions in support of sustainability plan.
