Transportation, power, sewer, and secondary water are excluded from this engagement as they are services either not offered by the City or not in the City's current IFFP. The consultant shall distinguish eligible system improvements from project improvements, existing deficiencies, operations and maintenance, and other ineligible expenditures. No category is presumed fee-eligible merely because it is listed above. 8 PROJECT ADMINISTRATION AND COMMON REQUIREMENTS 1. Conduct a kickoff meeting; obtain and inventory available data; establish assumptions, service-area alternatives, deliverable formats, project milestones, review periods, and a statutory notice/adoption calendar. Identify data gaps and request City decisions promptly. 2. Review existing impact fee balances, restricted accounts, collections, expenditures, encumbrances, outstanding obligations, previously identified improvements, and applicable six-year expenditure/encumbrance and accounting requirements under Part 6 of the Act. 3. Review material amendments to the Act since the 2022 studies and provide a concise change memorandum explaining their effects on the updated plans, analyses, and implementation documents. 4. Provide a statutory compliance matrix identifying each applicable requirement, the report or enactment section addressing it, and any exceptions, assumptions, limitations, or implementation issues. 5. Use defensible population, employment, land-use, redevelopment, demand, cost, and growth assumptions, with source documentation. Coordinate with City departments and the City Attorney as directed by the Administrative Services Director. 6. Provide draft and final reports, concise layperson summaries, editable native spreadsheets with formulas and assumptions, GIS/service-area exhibits where applicable, and presentation-ready materials. Deliver accessible searchable PDF and editable Word/Excel files. 9 PHASE ONE - IMPACT FEE FACILITIES PLAN(S) Phase One shall be completed and submitted for City review before Phase Two is finalized. The consultant shall prepare an IFFP for each applicable facility category or a legally sufficient coordinated set of plans, and a separately usable public summary. 4.1 Statutory Facilities Planning For each facility and proposed service area, the IFFP shall expressly address all elements of Utah Code §11-36a-302, including: 7. Identify the existing level of service; 8. Establish the proposed level of service and explain its basis and statutory limitations; 9. Identify existing excess capacity available to accommodate anticipated future growth; 10. Identify and quantify the demands placed on facilities by new development activity at the proposed level of service; and 11. Identify how the City proposes to meet those demands, including eligible system improvements, timing, financing, and reasonable supporting assumptions. Evaluate the statutory restrictions on proposed levels of service above existing levels. If a higher level is proposed, identify separately the improvements and independent funding required to serve existing development within the statutory period; do not allocate those costs to impact fees. Identify existing deficiencies and non-growth costs separately. 4.2 Facilities, Costs, Financing and Coordination 12. Review relevant master plans, adopted capital facilities plans, asset inventories, capacity studies, historical and forecast growth, development patterns, and the 2022 impact fee studies; reconcile differences and document assumptions. 13. Identify facility capacity, location, project scope, eligible system improvements, planning horizon, preliminary cost estimates, and the relationship of improvements to forecast new development. Distinguish system improvements from project improvements. 14. Consider all reasonably available financing and offsets, including grants, bonds, interfund loans, taxes, user charges, impact fees, and anticipated or accepted dedication of system improvements, as applicable under §11-36a-302 and the Act. 15. Identify potential fee-service-area alternatives, including The Cairns, using sound planning or engineering principles and supported geographic boundaries; identify cross-area benefits and costs attributable to existing development. 4.3 Review, Certification and Adoption Support 16. Prepare the written professional certification required for the IFFP under Utah Code §11-36a-306, signed by the qualified preparer, using the statutory language applicable at the time of completion. 17. Prepare the IFFP summary and provide technical content and draft materials for required notices and public availability, including notice of intent and plan adoption/amendment procedures under §§11-36a-501 and 502, as applicable. Coordinate timing with the City before contract execution and commencement of affected work. 18. Attend City staff/development-community review meetings and City Council meetings or hearings, including presentation and responses to technical questions; identify any additional meetings separately in the proposal. 19. Revise drafts in response to consolidated City comments and public-hearing direction; provide final adoption-ready IFFP(s), summaries, exhibits, certification, and compliance matrix. PHASE TWO - IMPACT FEE ANALYSIS/ANALYSES After the Phase One technical findings are established, prepare an IFA and public summary for each facility category and appropriate service area. The IFA shall satisfy Utah Code §§11-36a-304 and 305 and demonstrate the statutory basis and maximum supportable amount for each recommended fee. 5.1 Core Impact and Proportionate-Share Analysis 20. Identify the anticipated impact on or consumption of existing facility capacity by anticipated development activity; 21. Identify impacts on system improvements needed to maintain the established level of service; 22. Demonstrate the reasonable relationship between anticipated development activity and those impacts; 23. Estimate the proportionate share of recoverable existing-capacity costs and eligible future system-improvement costs reasonably attributable to new development; and 24. Document the calculation of each impact fee, including demand units, land-use classifications, allocation factors, credits, and maximum justified rates. 5.2 Required Cost and Offset Factors Expressly evaluate and document all applicable factors under §11-36a-304(2), including: • Actual costs of existing facilities with excess capacity and eligible costs of system improvements; • Other financing sources, including taxes, user charges, grants, debt and other funding; • New development's contributions to facility costs through other financing mechanisms, both for existing capacity and future improvements, to avoid inequitable allocation or double recovery; • Required credits for qualifying developer dedications and improvements; • Extraordinary costs attributable to servicing new development; • Time-price differentials and the assumptions and methods used to compare costs incurred at different times. Use realistic cost estimates, disclose underlying assumptions, and exclude ineligible costs, existing deficiencies, maintenance and operating expenses, and costs allocated to existing development. Address the statutory restrictions applicable to qualifying fire suppression vehicles, including residential components of development. 5.3 Service Areas and The Cairns Evaluate a citywide fee structure against separate service areas, including the downtown master plan area known as The Cairns. Assess geographic boundaries, growth and land-use intensity, existing and proposed service levels, capacity, project location, beneficiaries, cross-area benefits, and proportional demand. Support any proposed service area with sound planning or engineering principles consistent with §11-36a-102 and the Act. Do not base a differential fee solely on density, amenities, or the location of spending. Present separate optional pricing in the consultant proposal for the analysis and documentation of multiple service areas. 5.4 Redevelopment, Credits and Administration 25. Recommend defensible procedures for demolition, rebuilding, redevelopment, expansion, changes in use, and replacement of existing structures. Determine existing demand and net additional demand, address previously paid fees and qualifying credits, and identify applicable exemptions or adjustments under the Act. 26. Review current City impact fee structure and ordinances; recommend revised classifications, fee schedules, service-area schedules, administration, calculation worksheets, individualized assessment procedures, credits, reimbursements, appeals and recordkeeping, as applicable. 27. Provide a recommended fee schedule showing the maximum legally justified fee and, where requested, policy alternatives at or below that maximum, with transparent calculations and a reconciliation to the IFFP and IFA. 5.5 Implementation and Public Process 28. Prepare the IFA certification required by §11-36a-306, signed by the qualified preparer and using applicable statutory language, including the required treatment of other funding sources and offsets. 29. Prepare a clear layperson summary, final IFA(s), cost and demand schedules, fee calculation workbooks, service-area maps, and statutory compliance matrix. 30. Provide technical content and draft materials for applicable notices, availability periods, hearings and enactment procedures under §§11-36a-503 and 504 and related provisions. The City shall issue official notices and conduct formal adoption proceedings. Address the required preliminary notice before the City prepares or contracts to prepare an IFA. 31. Assist in preparing an adoption-ready proposed impact fee enactment/ordinance and supporting exhibits meeting applicable §§11-36a-401 and 402, including calculation methodology, service areas, fees, credits/adjustments, and effective-date provisions. Account for the statutory minimum 90-day period before the enactment takes effect. 32. Attend staff/development-community review meetings and City Council meetings or hearings, present findings and implementation documents, answer technical questions, and incorporate consolidated City revisions. 33. Identify foreseeable legal or methodological challenges, supporting documentation, and feasible mitigation measures. Upon City request, provide separately priced technical assistance in administrative or judicial challenges, including records, analysis, declarations, and expert testimony, coordinated with the City Attorney and applicable Part 7 procedures.
