Development Impact Fees are one-time fees that are imposed by a local government or a new or proposed development project to pay for all or a portion of the costs of providing public services to the new development. Although widely adopted in the west and north areas of the state, development impact fees in eastern Idaho have been rare with just a handful using the tool- Jefferson County, Madison County, Rexburg, and recently, Idaho Falls. The role of the Development Impact Fee Advisory Committee is established in 67-8205 which states that the role of the Committee is to: • Assist the [City Council] in adopting land use assumptions; Review the capital improvements plan, and proposed amendments, and file written comments; Monitor and evaluate implementation of the capital improvements plan; File periodic reports, at least annually, with respect to the capital improvements plan and report to the [City Council] any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the development impact fees; and B:\Community Services\Impact Fee Administration\Annual Reporting\2025 DIF Overview Memo to Committee -1.30.2025 docx 1 • Advise the [City Council] of the need to update or revise land use assumptions, the capital improvements plan, and development impact fees. In turn, the City Council must make available upon your request: • All applicable financial and accounting information; • Professional reports in relation to other development and implementation of land use assumptions; • The capital improvements plan; • And periodic updates of the capital improvements plan. The City of Chubbuck collects impact fees at the building permit stage for Police, Emergency Services, and Parks. The currently adopted impact fees were adopted in January 2024 and took effect at the end of February 2024 following an extensive 5 -year analysis of levels of service criteria by outside consultant, Zions Public Finance. On January 1 st of every year, the ordinance states that the Council may adjust the impact fee to account for inflationary increases in the costs of providing services by parks and recreation, police, and emergency services using municipal cost index data published by "American Cities and County Magazine". Using data extracted from www.americancitVandcountrV.com/municipal-cost-index on January 8, 2025, the 12 -month inflationary increase in the municipal cost index was +1.34%. There is no obligation to adjust the impact fees to account for the inflationary increase, but the Council will want to consider the impacts of a decision whether to adjust or not adjust the fees.

In Fiscal Year 2024 (October 2023 — September 2024), the Emergency Services fund generated $72,502.63 in fee revenues and had $6,000 in expenses (impact fee study update); $7,242.17 was generated in interest. The unaudited FY24 fund balance was $316,684.80. The Fire Department anticipates using approximately $60,000 for the new ladder truck in FY25. In Fiscal Year 2024, the Police fund generated $66,863.43 in fee revenues and had $6,000 in expenses (impact fee study update); $5,822.36 was generated in interest. The unaudited FY24 fund balance was $259,028.52. The Police Department anticipates using all of its funds for payments of the renovated police station. In Fiscal Year 2024, the Parks & Recreation fund generated $201,126.04 in fee revenues and had $167,280.98 in expenses (Hiram and Long Park playground installations, impact fee study update, City Hall Park construction (to be Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation grant funded/reimbursed), and all -wheels park designs at Miller Park; $6,555.56 was generated in interest. The unaudited FY24 fund balance was $1,047,318.73. Moving forward into Fiscal Year 2025, Park & Recreation, at the direction of Mayor and Council, started designs on the parking lot for the all -wheels park. That design has been substantially completed and now the City is waiting to move forward pending a possible private -public partnership for the entirety of the Miller Park improvement. If the private -public partnership is unable to come to fruition, the Parks & Recreation Division anticipates moving to the first phase of the All -Wheels Park, which will involve the parking lot and frontage landscaping, and the first phase of the skatepark; it is anticipated that those improvements will exhaust the impact fee reserve. 4 Attachments: 1.

MINIMUM STANDARDS AND REQUIREMENTS FOR DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES ORDINANCES. Governmental entities which comply with the requirements of this chapter may impose by ordinance development impact fees as a condi- tion of development approval on all developments. (1) A development impact fee shall not exceed a proportionate share of the cost of system improvements determined in accordance with section 67-8207, Idaho Code. Development impact fees shall be based on actual system improvement costs or reasonable estimates of such costs. (2) A development impact fee shall be calculated on the basis of levels of service for public facilities adopted in the development impact fee ordi- nance of the governmental entity that are applicable to existing development as well as new growth and development. The construction, improvement, ex- pansion or enlargement of new or existing public facilities for which a de- velopment impact fee is imposed must be attributable to the capacity demands generated by the new development. (3) A development impact fee ordinance shall specify the point in the development process at which the development impact fee shall be collected. The development impact fee may be collected no earlier than the commencement 5 of construction of the development, or the issuance of a building permit or a manufactured home installation permit, or as may be agreed by the developer and the governmental entity. (4) A development impact fee ordinance shall be adopted in accordance with the procedural requirements of section 67-8206, Idaho Code. (5) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a process whereby the governmental agency shall allow the developer, upon request by the developer, to provide a written individual assessment of the proportionate share of development impact fees under the guidelines established by this chapter which shall be set forth in the ordinance. The individual assessment process shall permit consideration of studies, data, and any other relevant information submitted by the developer to adjust the amount of the fee. The decision by the governmental agency on an application for an individual assessment shall include an explanation of the calculation of the impact fee, including an explanation of factors considered under section 67-8207, Idaho Code, and shall specify the system improvement (s) for which the impact fee is intended to be used. (6) A development impact fee ordinance shall provide a process whereby a developer shall receive, upon request, a written certification of the development impact fee schedule or individual assessment for a particular project, which shall establish the development impact fee so long as there is no material change to the particular project as identified in the individual assessment application, or the impact fee schedule. The certification shall include an explanation of the calculation of the impact fee including an explanation of factors considered under section 67-8207, Idaho Code. The certification shall also specify the system improvement(s) for which the impact fee is intended to be used. (7) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a provision for credits in accordance with the requirements of section 67-8209, Idaho Code. (8) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a provision prohibiting the expenditure of development impact fees except in accordance with the requirements of section 67-8210, Idaho Code. (9) A development impact fee ordinance may provide for the imposition of a development impact fee for system improvement costs incurred subsequent to adoption of the ordinance to the extent that new growth and development will be served by the system improvements. (10 ) A development impact fee ordinance may exempt all or part of a par- ticular development project from development impact fees provided that such project is determined to create affordable housing, provided that the pub- lic policy which supports the exemption is contained in the governmental en- tity's comprehensive plan and provided that the exempt development's pro- portionate share of system improvements is funded through a revenue source other than development impact fees. (11) A development impact fee ordinance shall provide that development impact fees shall only be spent for the category of system improvements for which the fees were collected and either within or for the benefit of the ser- vice area in which the project is located. (12) A development impact fee ordinance shall provide for a refund of development impact fees in accordance with the requirements of section 67-8211, Idaho Code. (13) A development impact fee ordinance shall establish for a procedure for timely processing of applications for determination by the governmental entity regarding development impact fees applicable to a project, individ- I ual assessment of development impact fees, credits or reimbursements to be allowed or paid under section 67-8209, Idaho Code, and extraordinary impact. (14) A development impact fee ordinance shall specify when an applica- tion for an individual assessment of development impact fees shall be per- mitted to be made by a developer or fee payer. An application for an individ- ual assessment of development impact fees shall be permitted sufficiently in advance of the time that the developer or fee payer may seek a building permit or related permits so that the issuance of a building permit or related per- mits will not be delayed. (15) A development impact fee ordinance shall provide for appeals re- garding development impact fees in accordance with the requirements of sec- tion 67-8212, Idaho Code. (16) A development impact fee ordinance must provide a detailed de- scription of the methodology by which costs per service unit are determined. The development impact fee per service unit may not exceed the amount determined by dividing the costs of the capital improvements described in section 67-8208 (1) ( f) , Idaho Code, by the total number of projected service units described in section 67-8208 (1) (g) , Idaho Code. If the number of new service units projected over a reasonable period of time is less than the total number of new service units shown by the approved land use assumptions at full development of the service area, the maximum impact fee per service unit shall be calculated by dividing the costs of the part of the capital improvements necessitated by and attributable to the projected new service units described in section 67-8208 (1) (g) , Idaho Code, by the total projected new service units described in that section. (17) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a schedule of de- velopment impact fees for various land uses per unit of development. The or- dinance shall provide that a developer shall have the right to elect to pay a project's proportionate share of system improvement costs by payment of de- velopment impact fees according to the fee schedule as full and complete pay- ment of the development project's proportionate share of system improvement costs, except as provided in section 67-8214 (3) , Idaho Code. (18) After payment of the development impact fees or execution of an agreement for payment of development impact fees, additional development impact fees or increases in fees may not be assessed unless the number of service units increases or the scope or schedule of the development changes. In the event of an increase in the number of service units or schedule of the development changes, the additional development impact fees to be imposed are limited to the amount attributable to the additional service units or change in scope of the development. (19) No system for the calculation of development impact fees shall be adopted which subjects any development to double payment of impact fees. (20) A development impact fee ordinance shall exempt from development impact fees the following activities: (a) Rebuilding the same amount of floor space of a structure which was destroyed by fire or other catastrophe, providing the structure is re- built and ready for occupancy within two (2) years of its destruction; (b) Remodeling or repairing a structure which does not increase the number of service units; (c) Replacing a residential unit, including a manufactured home, with another residential unit on the same lot, provided that the number of service units does not increase; (d) Placing a temporary construction trailer or office on a lot; W (e) Constructing an addition on a residential structure which does not increase the number of service units; and (f) Adding uses that are typically accessory to residential uses, such as tennis courts or clubhouse, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that the use creates a significant impact on the capacity of system improvements. (21) A development impact fee will be assessed for installation of a modular building, manufactured home or recreational vehicle unless the fee payer can demonstrate by documentation such as utility bills and tax records, either: (a) That a modular building, manufactured home or recreational vehicle was legally in place on the lot or space prior to the effective date of the development impact fee ordinance; or (b) That a development impact fee has been paid previously for the in- stallation of a modular building, manufactured home or recreational ve- hicle on that same lot or space. (22) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a process for dealing with a project which has extraordinary impacts. (23) A development impact fee ordinance shall provide for the calcula- tion of a development impact fee in accordance with generally accepted ac- counting principles. A development impact fee shall not be deemed invalid because payment of the fee may result in an incidental benefit to owners or developers within the service area other than the person paying the fee. (24) A development impact fee ordinance shall include a description of acceptable levels of service for system improvements. (25) Any provision of a development impact fee ordinance that is incon- sistent with the requirements of this chapter shall be null and void and that provision shall have no legal effect. A partial invalidity of a development impact fee ordinance shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the ordinance that are consistent with the requirements of this chapter.

(1) All development impact fees shall be based on a reasonable and fair formula or method under which the development impact fee imposed does not exceed a proportionate share of the costs incurred or to be incurred by the governmental entity in the provision of system improvements to serve the new development. The 10 proportionate share is the cost attributable to the new development after the governmental entity considers the following: (i) any appropriate credit, offset or contribution of money, dedication of land, or construction of system improvements; (ii) payments reasonably anticipated to be made by or as a result of a new development in the form of user fees and debt service payments; (iii) that portion of general tax and other revenues allocated by the jurisdiction to system improvements; and (iv) all other available sources of funding such system improvements. (2) In determining the proportionate share of the cost of system im- provements to be paid by the developer, the following factors shall be con- sidered by the governmental entity imposing the development impact fee and accounted for in the calculation of the impact fee: (a) The cost of existing system improvements within the service area or areas; (b) The means by which existing system improvements have been financed; (c) The extent to which the new development will contribute to the cost of system improvements through taxation, assessment, or developer or landowner contributions, or has previously contributed to the cost of system improvements through developer or landowner contributions. (d) The extent to which the new development is required to contribute to the cost of existing system improvements in the future. (e) The extent to which the new development should be credited for pro- viding system improvements, without charge to other properties within the service area or areas; (f) Extraordinary costs, if any, incurred in serving the new develop- ment; (g) The time and price differential inherent in a fair comparison of fees paid at different times; and (h) The availability of other sources of funding system improvements including, but not limited to, user charges, general tax levies, inter- governmental transfers, and special taxation. The governmental entity shall develop a plan for alternative sources of revenue.

(1) Each governmental entity in- tending to impose a development impact fee shall prepare a capital improve- ments plan. That portion of the cost of preparing a capital improvements plan which is attributable to determining the development impact fee may be funded by a one (1) time ad valorem levy which does not exceed two one -hun- dredths percent (.020) of market value or by a surcharge imposed by ordi- nance on the collection of a development impact fee which surcharge does not exceed the development's proportionate share of the cost of preparing the plan. For governmental entities required to undertake comprehensive plan- ning pursuant to chapter 65, title 67, Idaho Code, such capital improvements plan shall be prepared and adopted according to the requirements contained in the local planning act, section 67-6509, Idaho Code, and shall be included as an element of the comprehensive plan. The capital improvements plan shall be prepared by qualified professionals in fields relating to finance, engi- neering, planning and transportation. The persons preparing the plan shall consult with the development impact fee advisory committee. The capital improvements plan shall contain all of the following: 11 (a) A general description of all existing public facilities and their existing deficiencies within the service area or areas of the govern- mental entity and a reasonable estimate of all costs and a plan to de- velop the funding resources related to curing the existing deficiencies including, but not limited to, the upgrading, updating, improving, ex- panding or replacing of such facilities to meet existing needs and us- age; (b) A commitment by the governmental entity to use other available sources of revenue to cure existing system deficiencies where practi- cal; (c) An analysis of the total capacity, the level of current usage, and commitments for usage of capacity of existing capital improvements, which shall be prepared by a qualified professional planner or by a qualified engineer licensed to perform engineering services in this state; (d) A description of the land use assumptions by the government entity; (e) A definitive table establishing the specific level or quantity of use, consumption, generation or discharge of a service unit for each category of system improvements and an equivalency or conversion table establishing the ratio of a service unit to various types of land uses, including residential, commercial, agricultural and industrial; (f) A description of all system improvements and their costs necessi- tated by and attributable to new development in the service area based on the approved land use assumptions, to provide a level of service not to exceed the level of service adopted in the development impact fee or- dinance; (g) The total number of service units necessitated by and attributable to new development within the service area based on the approved land use assumptions and calculated in accordance with generally accepted engineering or planning criteria; (h) The projected demand for system improvements required by new service units projected over a reasonable period of time not to exceed twenty (20) years; (i) Identification of all sources and levels of funding available to the governmental entity for the financing of the system improvements; (j) If the proposed system improvements include the improvement of public facilities under the jurisdiction of the state of Idaho or another governmental entity, then an agreement between governmental entities shall specify the reasonable share of funding by each unit, provided the governmental entity authorized to impose development impact fees shall not assume more than its reasonable share of funding joint improvements, nor shall the agreement permit expenditure of de- velopment impact fees by a governmental entity which is not authorized to impose development impact fees unless such expenditure is pursuant to a developer agreement under section 67-8214, Idaho Code; and (k) A schedule setting forth estimated dates for commencing and com- pleting construction of all improvements identified in the capital im- provements plan. (2) The governmental entity imposing a development impact fee shall update the capital improvements plan at least once every five (5) years. The five (5) year period shall commence from the date of the original adoption of the capital improvements plan. The updating of the capital improvements 12 plan shall be made in accordance with procedures set forth in section 67-8206, Idaho Code. (3) The governmental entity must annually adopt a capital budget. (4 ) The capital improvements plan shall be updated in conformance with the provisions of subsection (2) of this section each time a governmental en- tity proposes the amendment, modification or adoption of a development im- pact fee ordinance.

Credit or reimbursement shall not be given for project improvement. (2) In the calculation of development impact fees for a particular project, credit shall be given for the present value of all tax and user fee revenue generated by the developer, within the service area where the impact fee is being assessed and used by the governmental agency for system improvements of the category for which the development impact fee is being collected. If the amount of credit exceeds the proportionate share for the particular project, the developer shall receive a credit on future impact fees for the amount in excess of the proportionate share. The credit may be applied by the developer as an offset against future impact fees only in the service area where the credit was generated. (3) If a developer is required to construct, fund or contribute system improvements in excess of the development project's proportionate share of system improvement costs, including such system improvements paid for pursuant to a local improvement district, the developer shall receive a credit on future impact fees or be reimbursed at the developer's choice for such excess construction, funding or contribution from development impact fees paid by future development which impacts the system improvements constructed, funded or contributed by the developer (s) or fee payer.

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHUBBUCK, IDAHO: Section 1. Amended Section 17.24.010 17.24.020 17.24.040 and 17.24.120. Sections 17.24.010,17.24.020, 17.24.040, and 17.24.120 are amended to read as follows: 17.24.010: LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS: The City Council of the City of Chubbuck, Idaho, finds that: A. Based on the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan adopted by the City pursuant to title 67, chapter 65, Idaho Code, including, but not limited to, the capital improvements element of the comprehensive plan, and the general governmental goal of protecting the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the City, and its Area of City Impact, it is necessary for: 1) police public facilities, and 2) emergency services public facilities to accommodate new development within the City, and its Area of City Impact. B. New residential and nonresidential growth and development imposes and will impose increasing and excessive demands upon the public facilities. C. The revenues generated from new residential and nonresidential growth and development often does not generate sufficient funds to provide the necessary levels of service provided by these public facilities to accommodate new development. D. New development is expected to continue, and will place ever increasing demands on the City to provide and expand the public facilities to serve new development. E. The City has planned for the improvement of the public facilities in the capital improvements element of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan and in the impact fee analysis and the capital improvement plan reviewed and adopted therewith. F. The creation of an equitable impact fee system in accordance with title 67, chapter 82, Idaho Code enables the City to impose a proportionate share of the costs of needed improvements to the public facilities to accommodate new development, and assists -the City in implementing the capital improvements element of the comprehensive plan. G. In order to maintain an equitable impact fee system for the public facilities, the City retained Zions Public Finance, Inc. ("Zions") to prepare updated impact fee studies for these types of facilities S years after adopting impact fees originally in 2019. The resulting documents are titled: Police Capital Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Analysis, and Fire and Emergency Services Capital Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Analysis, and all dated 2023 (the "Impact Fee Study'), and recommended for approval by the Impact Fee Advisory Committee. The studies are on file in the Office of the City Clerk of the City of Chubbuck. Any reference herein to the Impact Fee Study shall be to the respective study for that service. H. The Impact Fee Study is consistent with the capital improvements element of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan, and uses the levels of service set forth in the Comprehensive Plan for these public facilities. The Impact Fee Study sets forth reasonable methodologies and analyses for determining the impacts of various types of new development on the public facilities, and determines the cost of acquiring or constructing the improvements necessary to meet the demands for such public facilities created by new development. J. The Impact Fee Study uses a calculation methodology in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This chapter shall not be deemed invalid because payment of an impact fee may result in an incidental benefit to others within the service area other than the fee payer. K. The impact fees described in this chapter are based on the Impact Fee Study, and do not exceed the costs of system improvements for the public facilities to serve new development that will pay the impact fees. L. The police and emergency services included in the calculation of impact fees in the Impact Fee Study will benefit all new development throughout the City, and it is therefore appropriate to treat all areas of the City and the Area of City Impact as a single service area for purposes of calculating, collecting and spending the impact fees collected. M. There is both a rational nexus and a rough proportionality between the development impacts created by each type of development covered by this chapter and the impact fees that such development will be required to pay. N. This chapter creates a system by which impact fees paid by new development will be used to finance, defray or to provide capital improvements for the public facilities in ways that benefit the development for which impact fees were paid. 0. This chapter creates a system under which impact fees shall not be used to correct existing deficiencies in public facilities, or to replace or rehabilitate existing public facilities, or to pay for routine operation or maintenance of those public facilities. P. This chapter creates a system under which there shall be no double payment of impact fees, in accordance with Idaho Code section 678204(19). Q. This chapter is consistent with all applicable provisions of title 67, chapter 82, Idaho Code, concerning impact fee ordinances. (Ord. 783, 2019) 17.24.020: AUTHORITY, APPLICABILITY, AND EFFECTIVE DATE: A. This chapter is enacted pursuant to the City's general police powers pursuant to the authority granted to the City by title 50, Idaho Code, and pursuant to the authority granted to the City by section 67-8201 et seq., Idaho Code.

Sections 17.28.010, 17.28.020, 17.28.040, and 17.84.120 are amended to read as follows: 17.28.010: LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS: The City Council of the City of Chubbuck, Idaho, finds that: A. Based on the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan adopted by the City pursuant to title 67, chapter 65, Idaho Code, including, but not limited to, the capital improvements element of the comprehensive plan, and the general governmental goal of protecting the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the City, and its Area of City Impact, it is necessary for the parks and recreation public facilities to accommodate new development within the City, and its Area of City Impact. B. New residential and nonresidential growth and development imposes and will impose increasing and excessive demands upon the public facilities. C. The revenues generated from new residential and nonresidential growth and development often does not generate sufficient funds to provide the necessary levels of service provided by these public facilities to accommodate new development. D. New development is expected to continue, and will place ever increasing demands on the City to provide and expand the public facilities to serve new development. E. The City has planned for the improvement of the public facilities in the capital improvements element of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan and in the impact fee analysis and the capital improvement plan reviewed and adopted therewith. F. The equitable impact fee system in accordance with title 67, chapter 82, Idaho Code enables the City to impose a proportionate share of the costs of needed improvements to the public facilities to accommodate new development, and assists the City in implementing the capital improvements element of the comprehensive plan. G. In order to maintain the equitable impact fee system for the public facilities, the City retained Zions Public Finance, Inc., ("Zions") to prepare an updated impact fee study for these types of facilities S years after adopting impact fees originally in 2019. The resulting document is titled: Parks and Trails CIP and Impact Fee Analysis dated November 2023 (the "Impact Fee Study"), and recommended for approval by the Impact Fee Advisory Committee. The studies are on file in the Office of the City Clerk of the City of Chubbuck. Any reference herein to the Impact Fee Study shall be to that study. H. The Impact Fee Study is consistent with the capital improvements element of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan, and uses the levels of service set forth in the Comprehensive Plan for these public facilities. 1. The Impact Fee Study sets forth reasonable methodologies and analyses for determining the impacts of various types of new development on the public facilities, and determines the cost of acquiring or constructing the improvements necessary to meet the demands for such public facilities created by new development. J. The Impact Fee Study uses a calculation methodology in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This chapter shall not be deemed invalid because payment of an impact fee may result in an incidental benefit to others within the service area other than the fee payer. K. The impact fees described in this chapter are based on the Impact Fee Study, and do not exceed the costs of system improvements for the public facilities to serve new development that will pay the impact fees. L. The parks and recreation services included in the calculation of impact fees in the Impact Fee Study will benefit all new development throughout the City, and it is therefore appropriate to treat all areas of the City and the Area of City Impact as a single service area for purposes of calculating, collecting and spending the impact fees collected. M. There is both a rational nexus and a rough proportionality between the development impacts created by each type of development covered by this chapter and the impact fees that such development will be required to pay. N. This chapter creates a system by which impact fees paid by new development will be used to finance, defray or to provide capital improvements for the public facilities in ways that benefit the development for which impact fees were paid. 0. This chapter creates a system under which impact fees shall not be used to correct existing deficiencies in public facilities, or to replace or rehabilitate existing public facilities, or to pay for routine operation or maintenance of those public facilities. P. This chapter creates a system under which there shall be no double payment of impact fees, in accordance with Idaho Code section 67-8204(19). Q. This chapter is consistent with all applicable provisions of title 67, chapter 82, Idaho Code, concerning Impact Fee Ordinances.

Introduction to the Fire and Emergency Services Capital Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Analysis Project Overview The City of Chubbuck (City) has commissioned Zions Public Finance, Inc (Zions) to put together a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Impact Fee Analysis (IFA) prior to updating fire and emergency services development impact fees authorized by Title 67, Chapter 82, Idaho Code, known as the Idaho Development Impact Fee Act (Impact Fee Act). Impact Fee Service Area Chubbuck is a city located in Bannock County, Idaho. The 2020 population was estimated to be 15,570 based on the United States Census 2020. By 2023, the population is estimated to reach 16,321 persons based on an average annual growth rate of 1.5 percent.' The purpose of the Fire and Emergency Services Capital Improvement Plan is to provide Chubbuck with substantive planning for future fire capital infrastructure including facility sizing, timing, costs and allocation to growth for which development impact fees may be used as a funding source. This information will be used as the basis of calculating the Fire and Emergency Services impact fees. A current CIP must be prepared before the City can update the Fire IFA. This CIP and IFA have been prepared for a single, city- wide service area (Service Area) with the same impact fee cost per call assessed throughout the Service Area. The cost per call is the relationship between the City's population and annual fire/emergency services calls generated within the City's boundaries and will be discussed in Section III: Fire and Emergency Services Impact Fee Analysis. Population and Fire Call Data The 2023 population in Chubbuck is estimated at 16,321 persons and 5,779 households. Over the next 20 years, Chubbuck is projected to grow to a population of 21,982 persons and 7,783 households.

The City has authority to collect a portion of the property and sales taxes within its boundaries. The revenues collected can cover the operational expenses, non -impact fee qualifying capital expenses, and other general needs of the fire department. The current fire facilities were paid for through a combination of property taxes, sales taxes and impact fees with the expectation that the City would be repaid, over time, for new development's proportionate share of the costs through impact fees. Bond Funding There are no outstanding bonds related to the fire department and no future bonds are currently proposed. If a bond is proposed and approved in the future by City residents, then the impact fees should be revised at that time to include any additional bond costs. Impact Fees Impact fees have become an ideal mechanism for funding growth -related infrastructure. It is recommended that impact fees be used to fund growth -related capital projects as they help to maintain an adequate level of service and prevent existing users from subsidizing the capital needs of new growth. Summary of Time and Price Differential The Impact Fees Act allows for the inclusion of a time and price differential to ensure that the costs incurred at a later date are accurately calculated. These adjustments to construction costs have been made previously in Table 8. Equity of Impact Fees The impact fee calculations are structured to fund 100% of the growth -related portion of system improvements as presented in the impact fee analysis. Funds borrowed from other City accounts to pay for the new facilities are to be repaid in their entirety through impact fees at the time that impact fee funds become available. 0 City of Chubbuck I Fire CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© City of Chubbuck I Fire CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© Section III: Fire and Emergency Services Impact Fee Analysis Impact Fee Overview The impact fee for fire and emergency services is calculated using the growth projections, current call data and future call projections, current and estimated future land use, and existing and future equipment and facilities costs which have been described in Sections I & II of this document. The final components necessary to complete the Impact Fee Analysis include: level of service (LOS), proportionate share analysis, impact fee cost per call, impact fee cost per development unit, and review of any credits to development. Each of those components are discussed in this section. Fire Level of Service One key component of the impact fee calculation is the level of service. The level of service is the measure of the relationship between service capacity and service demand for public facilities. In the case of fire impact fees that means the total building square footage (capacity) relative to the number of calls the fire department receives each year (service demand). Unlike a utility such as culinary water where capacity can be added gradually to the system by upsizing an existing line segment, public safety floor space has to be built station -by -station, not line -by-line. To adequately maintain the current level of service, fire stations or expansions of existing fire stations must be done well ahead of the increase in call volume that the station expansion is designed to serve. As we look at the call volume, the current level of service is 6.11 square feet per call (11,716 existing sf divided by 1,917 calls for service). A new station is planned to be built on the City's west side at a cost of $4,370,908. Maintaining the existing service level of 6.11 square feet per call results in the need for 1,881 square feet of new building space by 2033. This represents about 20.5 percent of the capacity of the new building planned because the existing building is considered to be at capacity. TABLE 9: CURRENT AND PROJECTED FIRE LEVEL OF SERVICE New Construction Amount SF per Call 6.11 Growth in Calls, 2023-2033 308 SF Required 2023-2033 1,881 New Facility Cost SF of New Facility $4,370,908 9,184 New Growth as % of Total Cost Proportionate Share Analysis 20.5% As part of this analysis, the Impact Fee Act requires that the calculated impact fee be roughly proportionate and reasonably related to the development activity. Ideally, implementing an impact fee to pay for needed infrastructure places a burden on future users that is equal to the burden that was borne in the past by existing users. To determine the fair share of an impact fee for system capacity in fire and emergency services, a proportionate share analysis was performed as described below. 10 City of Chubbuck I Fire CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© Calculation of Proportionate Share Table 10 shows the future floor space required by the increased calls for service in 2033 due to growth from new development, as well as the cost of construction attributable to new development.

Appendix A reduces the total cost by subtracting 20 percent of value as residual value. The total cost less residual value is then divided by the capacity calls served by each vehicle to arrive at a vehicle cost per call of $254.44 for existing vehicles. Appendix B shows the detailed calculations for new vehicles purchased within the next 20 years. Only the portion of costs attributable to the next 20 years have been included in the study. The resulting cost per call is $419.11. 11 City of Chubbuck I Fire CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©o The total fire vehicle cost per call, for existing and new vehicles, is $673.55. The total cost per call is composed of the facility cost, vehicle cost and consultant costs associated with preparing the CIP and Impact Fee Analysis. This results in a total cost per call of $2,344.20. TABLE 12: FIRE COST PER CALL CALCULATION Description Amount New Construction $2,278.16 Vehicle Cost $673.55 Consultant Cost $19.49 Total Cost per Call $2,971.21 Impact Fee Cost per Development Unit The impact fee is assessed to each user category based upon the historic calls per unit generated by that land use. The City's observed annual fire calls per unit by development type are multiplied by the impact fee cost per call to calculate the final impact fee per land use.

Imaact Fee Fund Balance Credit When an impact fee fund has an available balance, which can be used towards future impact fee qualifying expenditures and thus reduce the cost to new development, then credits are made to the future impact fee. The City currently has an impact fee fund balance of $193,925.68 which was used to reduce the costs owed by new development on the fire facilities as shown in Table 12. Individual Impact Fee Assessment The Impact Fees Act states that the impact fee ordinance should include a process whereby the City shall allow a developer, upon request by the developer, to provide a written individual assessment of the proportionate share of development impact fees. The individual assessment process permits consideration of studies, data, and any other relevant information submitted by the developer to adjust the amount of the fee. For fire impact fees the variable that would be reviewed in the individual impact fee assessment would be the average annual fire calls generated by the proposed development. Once the City and the developer have reviewed relevant information and determined the number of average annual fire calls for 12 City of Chubbuck I Fire CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© the proposed development, then the City can calculate the individual impact fee assessment using the formula in Table 14.

Introduction to the Police Capital Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Analysis Project Overview The City of Chubbuck (City) has commissioned Zions Public Finance, Inc (Zions) to put together a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Impact Fee Analysis (IFA) prior to updating police and animal control development impact fees authorized by Title 67, Chapter 82, Idaho Code, known as the Idaho Development Impact Fee Act (Impact Fee Act). Impact Fee Service Area Chubbuck is a city located in Bannock County, Idaho. The 2020 population was estimated to be 15,570 based on the United States Census 2020. By 2023, the population is estimated to reach 16,321 persons based on an average annual growth rate of 1.5 percent.' The purpose of the Police Capital Improvement Plan is to provide Chubbuck with substantive planning for future police capital infrastructure including facility sizing, timing, costs and allocation to growth for which development impact fees may be used as a funding source. This information will be used as the basis of calculating the Police impact fees. A current CIP must be prepared before the City can update the police IFA. This CIP and IFA have been prepared for a single, City-wide Service Area (Service Area) with the same impact fee cost per call assessed throughout the Service Area. The cost per call is the relationship between the City's population and annual police calls generated within the City's boundaries and will be discussed in Section III: Police and Animal Control Impact Fee Analysis. Population and Police Call Data Police calls for service were provided by the City of Chubbuck for the two-year period from 2020 through 2022. An average of the two years has been used in this analysis in order to establish current service levels.

A system improvement is defined as an improvement which will provide service to an entire service area not an improvement that only serves one specific development. The system improvement must also have a useful life of ten or more years. System improvements which are impact fee eligible may have "buy -in" capacity to the City's existing inventory of equipment, apparatus and facilities or may be allocated to future improvements for equipment, apparatus and facilities within a twenty-year planning horizon. The impact fee should be calculated to assess an impact fee for the proportionate share of system improvement costs which are available to serve future growth. The Police and Animal Control CIP documents the City's impact fee qualifying existing and future expenditures. Existing Equipment and Capital Facilities Existing Equipment Inventory Table 6 summarizes the City's existing police/animal control equipment inventory. A portion of the existing equipment will serve growth and will be included in the impact fee calculation.

These new facilities were completed in May 2023 and future development will be required to buy -in to its proportionate share of these facilities based on the demand it places on these facilities. Demand is measured by calls for service. The existing police station has 18,000 square feet and was acquired at a cost of $6.8 million; the animal control shelter has 3,778 square feet and was acquired at a cost of $1.9 million. Future Police Infrastructure No new police or animal control facilities are anticipated to be needed within the next 20 years. Therefore, new development will need to buy -in to the excess capacity in the existing facilities. Funding Future Capital Facilities Historic Funding Sources Police facilities can be funded in a variety of ways including tax revenues, impact fees, grants, bonds, vehicle leases, etc. Tax revenues—property and sales—are the primary source of revenue for the City. The City has authority to collect a portion of the property and sales taxes within its boundaries. The revenues collected can cover the operational expenses, non -impact fee qualifying capital expenses, and other general needs of the police department. The current police facilities were paid for through a combination of property taxes, sales taxes and impact fees with the expectation that the City would be repaid, over time, for new development's proportionate share of the costs through impact fees. H City of Chubbuck I Police CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© Bond Fundin There are no outstanding bonds related to the police department and no future bonds are currently proposed. If a bond is proposed and approved in the future by City residents, then the impact fees should be revised at that time to include any additional bond costs. Impact Fees Impact fees have become an ideal mechanism for funding growth -related infrastructure. It is recommended that impact fees be used to fund growth -related capital projects as they help to maintain an adequate level of service and prevent existing users from subsidizing the capital needs of new growth. Summary of Time and Price Differential The Impact Fees Act allows for the inclusion of a time and price differential to ensure that the costs incurred at a later date are accurately calculated. However, in this case no future costs are anticipated within the 20 -year planning horizon of this study. Equity of Impact Fees The impact fee calculations are structured to fund 100% of the growth -related portion of system improvements as presented in the impact fee analysis. Funds borrowed from other City accounts to pay for the new facilities are to be repaid in their entirety through impact fees at the time that impact fee funds become available. City of Chubbuck I Police CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© Section III: Police and Animal Control Impact Fee Analysis Impact Fee Overview The impact fee for police and animal control services is calculated using the growth projections, current call data and future call projections, current and estimated future land use, and existing and future equipment and facilities costs which have been described in Sections I & II of this document. The final components necessary to complete the Impact Fee Analysis include: level of service (LOS), proportionate share analysis, impact fee cost per call, impact fee cost per development unit, and review of any credits to development. Each of those components are discussed in this section. Police Level of Service One key component of the impact fee calculation is the level of service. The level of service is the measure of the relationship between service capacity and service demand for public facilities. In the case of police impact fees that means the total building square footage (capacity) relative to the number of calls the police department receives each year (service demand). Unlike a utility such as culinary water where capacity can be added gradually to the system by upsizing an existing line segment, public safety floor space has to be built station -by -station not line -by-line. To adequately maintain the current level of service, police stations or expansions of existing police stations must be done well ahead of the increase in call volume that the station expansion is designed to serve. Therefore, as we look at the call volume, the recently built facilities were designed to serve future development through 2043. Table 7 shows the 2043 level of service of 1.75 square feet per police call which is lower than the currently observed LOS of 2.36 square feet per call. The 2043 LOS for animal control is 0.37 square feet per call which is lower than the current LOS of 0.49 square feet per call. New development can only be charged for the level of service that it receives. Therefore, impact fees are calculated on the lower 2043 service levels. TABLE 7: CURRENT AND PROJECTED POLICE LEVEL OF SERVICE Police Level of Service 2023 2043 Calls for Service 7,639 10,288 Police SF 18,000 18,000 Police SF per Call 2.36 1.75 Animal Control SF 3,778 31778 Animal Control SF per Call 0.49 0.37 Proportionate Share Analysis As part of this analysis, the Impact Fee Act requires that the calculated impact fee be roughly proportionate and reasonably related to the development activity. Ideally, implementing an impact fee to pay for needed infrastructure places a burden on future users that is equal to the burden that was borne in the past by existing users. To determine the fair share of an impact fee for system capacity in the police and animal control services, a proportionate share analysis was performed as described below. 10 City of Chubbuck I Police CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©® Calculation of Proportionate Share Table 8 shows the future floor space required by the increased calls for service in 2043 due to growth from new development, as well as the cost of the floor space.

Table 10 reduces the total cost by subtracting 20 percent of value as residual value. The total cost less residual value is then divided by the capacity calls served by each vehicle to arrive at a vehicle cost per call of $77.48. 2 Based on the City's recent construction of a police facility at a cost of $6.81M for 18,000 sf ($6.81M / 18,000 = $377.78 s Based on the City's recent construction of an animal control facility at a cost of $1.91M for 3,778 sf ($1.91M / 3,778 = $502.91. 11 City of Chubbuck I Police CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© TABLE 10: POLICE COST PER CALL CALCULATION - VEHICLES Veh # 1 2 3 4 Year Purchased 2016 2021 2021 2017 Cost $27,000 $29,000 $29,000 $28,000 Expiration Year 2026 2030 2029 2023 Total Cost Less Residual Value $21,600 $23,200 $23,200 $22,400 Calls by Year of Expiration - Total Capacity Calls 7,988 8,478 8,353 7,639 Cost per Call _ $2.70 $2.74 $2.78 $2.93 5 2022 $30,000 6 2015 $30,000 2024 $24,000 7,753 $3.10 7 2015 $30,000 2024 $24,000 7,753 $3.10 8 2022 $30,000 9 2022 $30,000 10 2017 $30,000 2027 $24,000 8,108 $2.96 11 2016 $27,000 2023 $21,600 7,639 $2.83 12 2009 $18,000 2023 $14,400 7,639 $1.89 13 2015 $24,000 2025 $19,200 7,870 $2.44 14 2013 $28,000 2030 $22,400 8,478 $2.64 15 2017 $30,000 2027 $24,000 8,108 $2.96 16 17 2009 $18,000 2023 $14,400 7,639 $1.89 18 2018 $27,000 2023 $21,600 7,639 $2.83 19 2016 $27,000 2026 $21,600 7,988 $2.70 20 2009 $22,200 2023 $17,760 7,639 $2.32 21 2007 $16,200 2023 $12,960 7,639 $1.70 22 2013 $28,000 2023 $22,400 7,639 $2.93 23 2016 $26,500 2025 $21,200 7,870 $2.69 24 25 2018 $27,000 2023 $21,600 7,639 $2.83 26 $13,000 27 2019 $28,684 2029 $22,947 8,353 $2.75 28 29 2011 $21,300 2028 $17,040 8,229 $2.07 30 2018 $27,000 2023 $21,600 7,639 $2.83 31 2014 $30,000 2023 $24,000 7,639 $3.14 32 2019 $28,684 2029 $22,947 8,353 $2.75 33 34 2020 $29,000 2030 $23,200 8,478 $2.74 35 2020 $29,000 2030 $23,200 8,478 $2.74 36 2021 $29,000 37 2021 $30,384 50 2013 Gift = 0 TOTAL The total cost per call is composed of the preparing the CIP and Impact Fee Analysis.

The City does not anticipate any future police facilities to be built in the next 20 years and there are no bonds outstanding on current facilities. Impact Fee Fund Balance Credit When an impact fee fund has an available balance, which can be used towards future impact fee qualifying expenditures and thus reduce the cost to new development, then credits are made to the future impact fee. The City currently has an impact fee fund balance of $157,134.68 which was used to reduce the costs owed by new development on the police facilities as shown in Table 9. Individual Impact Fee Assessment The Impact Fees Act states that the impact fee ordinance should include a process whereby the City shall allow a developer, upon request by the developer, to provide a written individual assessment of the proportionate share of development impact fees. The individual assessment process permits consideration of studies, data, and any other relevant information submitted by the developer to adjust the amount of the fee. For police impact fees the variable that would be reviewed in the individual impact fee assessment would be the average annual police calls generated by the proposed development. Once the City and the developer have reviewed relevant information and determined the number of average annual police calls for the proposed development, then the City can calculate the individual impact fee assessment using the formula in Table 13.

It is, therefore, prudent to consider the implementation of impact fees, which are one-time fees charged to new development to offset the capital costs associated with new development. The implementation of impact fees allows the City to maintain its existing service levels for park and trail facilities. Any increase in service levels will need to be funded through sources other than impact fees. The City has provided input regarding its existing capital facilities as well as future capital facility needs. This input forms the basis for this Capital Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Analysis. The City has determined that there is one service area citywide and that there is no excess capacity in any existing park or trail facilities. Only residential development is considered to drive demand for parks and trails facilities and therefore only residential growth has been considered in the determination of impact fees. Capital Improvements Plan Idaho Statute 67-8208(1)(o) — A general description of all existing public facilities and their existing deficiencies within the service area or areas of the governmental entity and a reasonable estimate of all costs and a plan to develop the funding resources related to curing the existing deficiencies including, but not limited to, the upgrading, updating, improving, expanding or replacing of such facilities to meet existing needs and usage, Existing Facilities Project improvements are not included in the analysis; only system improvements are included.'Therefore, all mini parks have been excluded from the calculations. The analysis also does not include any park or trail facilities owned by private homeowner associations, or any facilities that have been acquired through grants or donations. Therefore, only the following 24 parks totaling 89.5 acres have been included in the analysis. TABLE 1: EXISTING CHUBBUCK PARKS Trails Capell Cotant Acres 17.5 21.1 Park Meadows 8.2 Stuart 4.9 Armstrong 1.6 Bicentennial 6.9 1 Project improvements are defined by Idaho Statute as "site improvements and facilities that are planned and designed to provide service for a particular development project and that are necessary for the use and convenience of the occupants or users of the project." System improvements are defined as follows: "System improvements, in contrast to project improvements, means capital improvements to public facilities which are designed to provide service to a service area including, without limitation, the type of improvements described in section 50-1703, Idaho Code." Idaho Code 67-8203 (22) and (28). Section 67-8204 (1) further states that development fees "shall not exceed a proportionate share of the cost of system improvements." 3 ©© City of Chubbuck Parks and Trails CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© Trails Acres Bistline 1.2 Briarwood 1.5 Chase 0.8 Dalton 0.5 Espie 0.9 Hiram 1.9 Homestead 2.6 Mark Harker 1.3 Heartland 2.2 Heritage 2.7 Jerry Rowland 2.2 Larry Miller 2.3 Long 1.4 M a ry's 4.3 Sample 0.7 Sunset West 1.6 Tree Valley 0.8 New Day Parkway 0.4 Total 89.5 A detailed list of improvements at each park is provided in Appendix A.

Impact fees should only be charged to the existing service level. The City can include park improvements, as well as the cost of park land, in its calculation of impact fees. The table below shows the 2023 inventory of park improvements and costs. The level of service for park improvements is calculated by taking the existing improvements and multiplying them by the cost per unit to maintain this same level of investment.

This is equivalent to a total cost of $1,976,150.29. The additional park development needs are based on maintaining the existing and proposed level of service, which are the same, for new development. Based on an existing park standard of 5.48 acres per 1,000 persons, 11.32 additional park acres are needed due to the estimated growth of 2,064 persons by 2031.

A system improvement is defined as an improvement which will provide service to a service area — not an improvement that only serves one specific development. The system improvement must also have a useful life of ten or more years. System improvements which are impact fee eligible may be "buy -in" to the City's existing inventory of amenities and park acreage or may be future improvements within a 20 -year planning horizon. The impact fee should be calculated to assess 7 City of Chubbuck I Parks and Trails CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©o an impact fee for the proportionate share of system improvement costs which is available to serve future growth. The Parks CIP documents the City's impact fee qualifying existing and future expenditures. Qualifying system level improvements include neighborhood or community parks, public trails, open space, recreation centers, sports fields, and special use parks (such as fitness parks and skate parks). Service Units Required by New Development Idaho Statute 67-8208(1)(g) — The total number of service units necessitated by and attributable to new development within the service area based on the approved land use assumptions and calculated in accordance with generally accepted engineering or planning criteria; The total cost required by new development over the next eight years (2023-2031) is $1,976,150.29.

Cost of Existing System Improvements Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(a) — The cost of existing system improvements within the service area or areas,- The reas, The City has not identified any excess capacity in any of its parks and trails facilities. Therefore, the cost associated with facilities is related to the cost of constructing similar facilities in 2023 dollars. This establishes the level of service that must be maintained by new development. The cost of existing system improvements is $15,622,657 for parks per Table 5. Financing of Existing System Improvements Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(b) — The means by which existing system improvements have been financed, There is no debt outstanding on any parks and trails system improvements. Therefore, no credits need to be made for outstanding debt. Any parks and trail facilities that were acquired through grants or donations have not been included in the level of service for the calculation of impact fees. The park and trail facilities that were included were paid for through either the General Fund or from Revenue Allocation Funds. New Development Contributions to System Improvements Other than Impact Fees Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(c) — The extent to which the new development will contribute to the cost of system improvements through taxation, assessment, or developer or landowner contributions, or has previously contributed to the cost of system improvements through developer or landowner contributions. The City does not intend to bond for future park improvements; therefore, no double payments will occur by new development. There are no bonds outstanding on existing park and trail facilities and therefore no recent past payments have been made for these types of facilities. The City may choose, at its discretion, to accept donations of land or park/trails improvements from developers. In this case, the impact fee should be offset by the donations. Financing of Existing System Improvements in the Past Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(d) — The extent to which the new development is required to contribute to the cost of existing system improvements in the future. The City has no existing, outstanding bonds or leases for park or trail facilities. Therefore, new development will not be required to pay for existing facilities. Credits for System Improvements Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(e) — The extent to which the new development should be credited for providing system improvements, without charge to other properties within the service area or areas,- For reas, For parks and trails, new development will not be required to provide oversize system improvements that will benefit other properties in the service area. Therefore, no reimbursement agreements or credits are applicable. 10 City of Chubbuck I Parks and Trails CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©© Extraordinary Costs Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(f) — Extraordinary costs, if any, incurred in serving the new development, - Not applicable. Time and Price Differential in Fees Charged Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(8) — The time and price differential inherent in a fair comparison of fees paid at different times, The City anticipates updating its CIP and Impact Fee Proportionate Share Analysis every few years. At these times, the City will update the costs associated with purchasing land, making park improvements and constructing trails. This will ensure a fair comparison of fees paid at different times. Other Funding Sources Idaho Statute 67-8207(2)(h) - The availability of other sources of funding system improvements including, but not limited to, user charges, general tax levies, intergovernmental transfers, and special taxation. The governmental entity shall develop a plan for alternative sources of revenue. User Charges. User charges are most often charged in connection with the operation and maintenance of facilities. It is not anticipated that user fees would be charged forthe construction of parks and trails capital facilities. General Tax Levies. While general tax levies may be used to fund park and trail facilities, the General Fund is only intended to be used for system improvements if the situation arises that the City desires to raise the existing service levels to meet new proposed service levels. Impact fees are intended to be used to maintain existing service levels through acquisition of the facilities needed due to new growth and development. Intergovernmental Transfers. The City can borrow money from other City funds in order to construct park and trail facilities and then later repay those funds as impact fee revenues are collected. At this time the City has no plans to use intergovernmental transfers. Special Taxation. The City does not intend to issue debt or impose special taxes to fund park and trail facilities. Donations and/or Grants. The City may receive donations or grants from public or private entities, such as urban renewal, to offset some of the costs for constructing parks or trail facilities. Proportionate Share Calculation There are three main cost components in the calculation of impact fees: • New construction of parks and trails facilities; • Consultant costs; and • Credits City of Chubbuck I Parks and Trails CIP and Impact Fee Analysis ©© ©® New Construction of Parks and Trails Facilities New construction costs are calculated by first taking the number of acres needed (11.32) by new development over the next eight years. This calculation is based on population growth and maintaining the existing level of service of 5.48 acres per 1,000 persons. The cost for the additional acres is then calculated by multiplying the 11.32 acres by the cost of $174,554.83 per acre (existing cost for land and improvements) to reach a total cost of $1,976,150.29. The total cost is then divided by the projected population growth of 2,064 persons over the next eight years to arrive at a total cost of $957.22 per capita.
