SCOPE OF WORK
Work Scope
The intent of this work scope is to revise the City’s existing Transportation IIP and Development Fee Report
to reflect the evolution of West Glendale and updated information on land use and transportation needs for
the area. Finally, updated costs and projects will be compiled for the East Glendale Service Area.
TASK 1: PROJECT INITIATION / DATA ACQUISITION
During this task, we will meet with City staff to establish lines of communication, review and discuss project
goals and expectations related to the project, review (and revise if necessary) the project schedule, request
data and documentation related to new proposed development, and discuss City staffs role in the project.
The objectives of this initial discussion are outlined below:

Deliverables:
Data request memorandum.
TASK 2: DEVELOP LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS
TischlerBise will review and update annual projections of population, employment, housing, commercial,
industrial and other nonresidential square footage data for ten (10) years. This will be based on discussions
with City staff and review of published information and information available from the Maricopa Association
of Governments. The Consultant will prepare a memorandum discussing the recommended land use
projections (Land Use Assumptions Document) that will serve as the basis for the IIP and development
impact fee schedule. TischlerBise will prepare a plan that includes projections of changes in land uses,

TischlerBise
FISCAL | ECONOMIC | PLANNING
TischlerBise will prepare a draft technical memorandum discussing the recommended Land Use
Assumptions. After review and sign-off by the City, a final memorandum will be issued, which will become
part of the final Transportation Development Fee Report.
TASK 3: IDENTIFY CAPITAL NEEDS AND COSTS
This task will determine the relevant capital needs and costs due to growth. This will include separate needs
for the East and West Glendale Service Areas. This Task will also include a review the existing
Transportation IIP and further define the categories of “Incremental lane widening” and “Incremental
intersection improvements” to include extension of streets to complete the street network.
1) Long-Range Capital Need — TischlerBise will focus on relevant documents such as the relevant
planning documents and master plans, the current Capital Improvements Plan, and other
mapping and data that is available. Discussions will aim not only to understand the specific costs,
but also to assess the size and scope of projects and whether capital facility needs are due to
normal replacement, catch-up, or new demand.
2) Service Units — TischlerBise will define the standardized measures of consumption, use, or
generation attributable to an individual unit of development for each category of “necessary
public services” or facility expansions.
3) Review Cost Estimates — TischlerBise will review the costs of infrastructure improvements, real
property, financing, engineering, and architectural services associated with the “necessary public
services” to be included in the IIP and development fees.
4) Financing Costs — TischlerBise will identify projected interest charges and other financial costs
which are to be used for repayment of principal and interest of debt used to finance construction
of “necessary public services” identified in the IIP.
5) Identify Ineligible Costs — TischlerBise will identify costs that are not eligible for inclusion in the
IP and development fees. Ineligible costs include projects not included in the IIP; repair,
maintenance, or operation of existing facilities; projects which serve existing development in
order to meet stricter regulatory requirements; projects which provide a higher level-of-service
to existing development; and administrative, maintenance, and operating costs.
6) Determine Service Areas — Specify the area(s) within the City’s boundaries in which
development will be served by the “necessary public services’ or facility expansions and that a
substantial nexus exists between the necessary public services or facility expansions and the
development being served as prescribed in the IIP.
As part of calculating the fee, costs for infrastructure improvements, real property, financing, engineering,
and architectural services will be considered. TischlerBise will consider all of these components in
developing an equitable allocation of costs.
Meetings:
Two (2) meetings with City staff.
Deliverables:
See Task 6.

TASK 4: DETERMINE NEED FOR “CREDITS” TO BE APPLIED AGAINST TRANSPORTATION
CAPITAL COSTS
There are two types of “credits” that are included in the calculation of impact fees, each with specific, distinct
characteristics. The first is a credit due to possible double payment situations. This could occur when a
property owner will make future contributions toward the capital costs of a public facility covered by an
impact fee. An example of this is when a developer improves more than their required % street
improvement, a credit is owed toward their Transportation DIF.
The second is a credit toward the payment of an impact fee for the required dedication of public sites and
improvements provided by the developer and for which the development fee is imposed. Both types of
credits will be considered and addressed in the development fee study.
Deliverables:
Memoranda as appropriate. See Task 8.
TASK 5: DISCUSS PRELIMINARY METHODOLOGIES AND POLICY OPTIONS
The requirement that development fees be based on an IIP does not equate to a requirement that only the
plan-based methodology can be used in the calculations. The IIP can reflect the past capacity investments
in infrastructure that will be repaid by new development with development fee revenue. Likewise, the City
can plan to provide new development the same level-of-service being currently provided to existing
development.
TischlerBise will evaluate different allocation methodologies for the Transportation IIP and development fee
to determine which methodology is the most appropriate measure of the demand created by new
development. These methodologies include:
Cost Recovery Methodology — This methodology is best suited for infrastructure which has already been
built and has excess capacity available to be utilized for new development.
Incremental Expansion Methodology — Under this approach, new development will receive the current
level-of-service being provided to existing development by the existing inventory of infrastructure.
Plan-Based Methodology — This methodology primarily evaluates the CIP for new development’s
proportionate share of planned capital projects. It is important to note, however, that CIP’s are often fiscally
constrained and may not reflect the true requirements of new development. TischlerBise will therefore also
evaluate master plans for different categories of infrastructure.
This comprehensive approach and consideration of alternative methodologies will allow maximization of
the transportation development fees. TischlerBise to prepare draft levels-of-service tables and methodology
recommendations for each infrastructure category and component. We will discuss this information with
City staff to ensure understanding and acceptance. Policy alternatives will be discussed as appropriate.
This should help ensure “sign-off and prevent time delays in finalizing the analysis.
Meetings:
One (1) meeting with City staff and elected officials (if desired) to discuss and explain the preliminary
findings, assumptions, and results. As a no charge option, TischlerBise can meet with a Stakeholder Group
if the City desires.
Deliverables:
TischlerBise will prepare a “story board” for staff review and comment detailing proposed levels-of-service,
cost estimates, service areas, credits and recommended calculation methodologies.
TASK 6: PREPARE DRAFT TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT PLAN (IIP)
In this task, TischlerBise’s qualified professionals will prepare a Transportation IIP using generally accepted
engineering and planning practices for each “necessary public service” for which a development fee can
be assessed. Development of the IIP will include the following subtasks:
= Reserve Capacity —- The IIP will identify transportation infrastructure capacity to be reserved to
serve future development.
= Description of Existing Transportation Facilities in the Service Area(s) — The IIP will include
a description of the existing transportation facilities in the service area(s) and the costs to upgrade,
update, improve, expand, correct, or replace those services to meet existing needs and usage and
stricter safety, efficiency, environmental, and regulatory standards.
= Analysis of Total Capacity — The IIP will identify the current usage and commitments for usage
of capacity of the existing transportation facilities.
= Description of “Necessary Public Services” Attributable to New Development — The IIP will
describe all parts of transportation facility expansions and their costs necessitated by and
attributable to development in the service area(s) based on the approved land use assumptions.
Cost forecasts will include the costs of infrastructure improvements, real property, financing,
engineering, and architectural services.
" Equivalency/Conversion Table — The IIP will include a table establishing the specific level or
quantity of use, consumption, or generation of a service unit for transportation facility expansions.
The table will include the ratio of a service unit to various types of residential, commercial, and
industrial land uses.
= Projected Service Units — The IIP will include the total number of projected service units
necessitated by and attributable to new development in the service area(s), based on the approved
land use assumptions.
= Projected Demand for Necessary Public Services — The IIP will include a ten-year projection of
the demand for transportation facility expansions required by new service units.
= Forecast of Non-Development Fee Revenues from New Service Units — The IIP will forecast
revenues other than development fees generated by new service units, such as state-shared
revenue, highway user revenue, federal revenue, ad valorem property taxes, construction
contracting or similar excise taxes, and the capital recovery portion of utility fees attributable to

development based on the approved land use assumptions. This subtask will include a plan to
include these contributions in determining the extent of the burden created by new development.
These subtasks will result in a written plan that identifies transportation facility expansions that are to be
the subject of a development fee and complies with the requirements of State law.
Meetings:
None.
Deliverables:
Draft Infrastructure Improvement Plan.
TASK 7: CONDUCT FUNDING AND CASH FLOW ANALYSIS; ESTIMATE ANNUAL OPERATING
cOsTs
In order to prepare a meaningful IP, it is important to evaluate the anticipated funding sources. In this task,
TischlerBise will prepare a ten-year cash flow analysis. This calculation will allow the City to better
understand the revenue potential of the development fees and the amount which would be needed if the
fees were discounted. It will also provide a good understanding of the cash flow needed to cover the
infrastructure costs for new development. The cash flow analysis will indicate whether additional funds
might be needed or whether the IIP might need to be altered. This could also affect the total credits
calculated in the previous task. Therefore, it is likely that a number of iterations will be conducted in order
to refine the cash flow analysis reflecting the capital improvement needs. Development fee revenues can
only be spent on capital projects that add capacity. Operating and maintenance costs associated with these
capital improvements will have to be funded from other revenue sources, mostly likely from the General
Fund. To estimate the annual operational and maintenance costs of the projected infrastructure,
TischlerBise will utilize several data sources, including:
= Most recently adopted operating budget.
= Most recently adopted CIP.
= Capital project/program submittal sheets from departments.
Meetings:
None.
Deliverables:
See Task 8.
TASK 8: PREPARE FINAL TRANSPORTATION LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS, liP AND
DEVELOPMENT FEE REPORT, PUBLIC PRESENTATIONS
TischlerBise will prepare a written report for the City that summarizes the need for transportation
development fees and the relevant methodologies employed, as well as documentation for all assumptions
and cost factors. The report will include at a minimum the following information:
= Executive Summary.
= Adetailed description of the methodology used during the study.
A detailed description of all level-of-service standards and cost factors used and accompanying
rationale.
A Transportation IIP spanning a maximum ten-year planning horizon, listing projects, costs, timing,
and financing.
A detailed schedule of proposed transportation fees listed by land use type and activity.
Other information which adequately explains and justifies the resulting recommended fee schedule.
A ten-year cash flow analysis of development fees and estimate of operating costs.
Meetings:
Two (2) presentations/work sessions with the City Council to present and discuss final Transportation Land
Use Assumptions, Development Fee Report and IIP as part of the legislatively required adoption process.
Deliverables:
Final Transportation Land Use Assumptions, IIP and Development Fee Report and presentation materials
for meetings.
