EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adopt a Resolution amending the Collier County Water-Sewer District Impact Fee Rates, established by Ordinance No. 2007-57, as amended, by reducing the water impact fee by $285 (-8%) to $3,290 per Equivalent Residential Connection, and the wastewater impact fee by $250 (-7.2%) to $3,245 per Equivalent Residential Connection, for a total reduction of $535 (-7.6%), with an effective date of February 14, 2011. OBJECTIVE: Adopt a Resolution amending the impact fee rates established by Ordinance No. 2007-57, as amended. providing for incorporation by reference the results of the Water and Wastewater Impact Fee Study, dated December 15, 2010. CONSIDERATIONS: Water and wastewater impact fees are used by the Collier County Water-Sewer District (District) to partially fund necessary long-term capital improvements required to meet the increased demand for potable water, wastewater, and non-potable irrigation quality water services relative to population growth and growth- related development. One of the standards for inclusion of capital project costs in the impact fee calculation is that the project is growth driven or provides a system-wide benefit, the cost of which should be shared by new growth connecting to the system. - Ordinance No. 2001-13, adopted by the Board of County Commissioners (Board) on March 13, 2001, as amended, included amendments to impact fee schedules by Resolution No, 2002-88, adopted on February 12.2002. The impact fee methodology for the District's non-residential customers was amended by Resolution No. 2003-300, adopted on September 9. 2003. On April 13, 2004, Resolution No. 2004-102 authorized a change in format to the subject Fee Schedule to provide additional clarity and consistency regarding water and wastewater impact fees. Ordinance No. 2007-57, adopted on June 26. 2007, established the District's then current water and wastewater impact fees. On June 24, 2008, the Board adopted a Resolution No 2008-202 decreasing the water impact fees by $41.49 and wastewater impact fee by $227.39, for a total reduction of $268.88. The effective date of the decrease was October 1, 2008. Public Resources Management Group (PRMG) was retained in June 2010 to perform an impact fee study. Their analysis shows, and staff recommends, a decrease in the water impact fee by $285, and a decrease in the wastewater impact fee by $250. for a total reduction of $535. effective February 14, 2011. If approved by the Board. the total reduction in water and wastewater combined impact fee since October 1, 2008. will be $803.88 or 11%. - Packet Page -53- 2/8/2011 Item 8_B. For water and wastewater combined, the capital costs allocable to future users through Fiscal Year 2020 are estimated at approximately $346 million. Utility relocation costs have been included as part of the transportation impact fee. With the completion ofthe Water and Wastewater Impact Fee study. the utility relocation costs will be removed from the Road Impact Fee and moved to the appropriate utility impact fees and/or rates. The methodology used to calculate these proposed impact fees is consistent with the approach used in previous impact fee studies. and conforms to the equity tests established by case law (i.e.. rational nexus). Staff reviewed the Capital Improvement Plan included in the impact fee study with the Chamber of Commerce Public Policy Committee on November 19.2010. The committee did not take any action; however. positively acknowledged the work of the Public Utilities Staff. Staff reviewed the Capita] Improvement Plan and the study with the Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAC) on November 3 and December I. 2010. and January 5. 2011. At the January 5. 2011 meeting. the DSAC recommended approval of the study with ten members voting in favor. three opposed and one recused. Staff also met with the Productivity Committee on November 17. December] 5. 2010, and on January 19, 2011. The Productivity Committee appointed a sub-committee to review the study. Upon the recommendations of the sub-committee. the Productivity Committee unanimously recommended approval of the impact fee study as presented. Please see Attachment I for a copy of the timetable of all interactions with stakeholders. A copy ofthe study is available in the County Manager's Office. FISCAL IMP ACT: Assuming an average annual growth rate of 1.000 water ERCs and 1.000 wastewater ERCs. the revenues to be generated by these recommended impact fees for the next fiscal year 2012 are estimated as: Water Wastewater $3.290.000 (Water Impact Fee Fund No. 411) $3.245.000 (Wastewater Impact Fee Fund No. 413) TOTAL = $6.535.000 The effect of the proposed impact fees on residential and non-residential structures is shown in the attached Exhibit A. LEGAL CONSIDERA nONS: The proposed Resolution has been approved for format and legal sufficiency by the Office of the County Attorney. This action requires a simple majority vote by the Board. JBW The impact fee study was reviewed by the legal firm Nabors. Giblin, and Nickerson. P.A. Packet Page -54- 2/8/2011 Item 8.B. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: The purpose of these recommended water and wastewater impact fees is to provide necessary revenues from future customers of the District's water and wastewater systems to partially fund long-term capital improvements required to meet the increased demand for potable water, wastewater, and non-potable irrigation quality water services relative to population growth and growth-related development, as analyzed by the impact fee study. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a Resolution amending the Collier County Water- Sewer District Impact Fee Rates, established by Ordinance No. 2007-57, as amended, by reducing the water impact fee by $285 (-8%) to $3.290 per Equivalent Residential Connection, and the wastewater impact fee by $250 (-7.2%) to $3,245 per Equivalent Residential Connection, for a total reduction of $535 (-7.6%), with an effective date of February 14,20] 1.

Public Resources Management Group, Inc. Utility, Rate, Financial and Management Consultants December 15,2010 Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board of County Commissioners Collier County 3301 Tamiami Trail East Naples, FL 34112 Subject: Water and Wastewater Impact Fee Study Ladies and Gentlemen: Public Resources Management Group, Inc. (PRMG) has completed our review of the water and wastewater impact fees for the Collier County (the "County") Water-Sewer District (the "District") water and wastewater system (the "System"), and has summarized the results of our analyses, assumptions, and conclusions in this report. which is submitted for your consideration. The purpose of our analysis was to review the existing impact fees and make recommendations as to the level of charges that should reasonably be in effect consistent with: i) the fixed assets installed by the District; and ii) the capital expenditure requirements identified in the District's multi-year capital improvement prol,'Tam (CIP). As reported by County staff, the capital cost estimates as contained in the CIP were based on recent prices for local Collier County projects, and such cost estimates were recognized in the impact fee calculations reflected in this report. Since the last formal impact fee and user rate studies performed in 2008, the District has continued to recognize lower customer growth as a result of current economic conditions. Moreover, water sales have declined also due to the current economic conditions coupled with the lingering effects of the recently imposed general water use restrictions by the South Florida Water Management District (which have been relaxed as of the date of this report). Based on the latest County planning estimates, no new water and wastewater treatment facilities are anticipated to be required until Fiscal Year 2027. Based on our review, PRMG is recommending that the water system impact fee be decreased from $3,575 to $3,290 per Equivalent Residential Connection (ERC). For the wastewater system, we are recommending a decrease in the impact fee from $3,495 to $3,245 per ERe. The combined water and wastewater fees with the proposed rate adjustments would be $6,535, a decrease of $535 or 7.6% when compared with the existing combined fees of $7,070. In 2008, the combined fees were lowered by $269. Since 2008, the total reduction in the combined water and wastewater impact fees has been $804 ($535 + $269) or 11.0%. The rate schedule for the proposed impact fees calculated during the current impact fee study is shown on Table ES-! following this letter. In addition to having recalculated the impact fees for the System, PRMG has also updated the System Allowance for Funds Prudently Invested (AFPI) fees which link to the impact fees and are essentially a "carrying charge" to recover certain costs associated with providing capacity to new development. The AFPI fees reflect the cost of Packet Page -58- 2/8/2011 Item 8.B. Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board of County Commissioners Collier County December 15, 2010 Page 2 financing the expansion-related infrastructure until impact fees are received by the District. AFPI fees are not impact fees; rather, they are considered a component of the System rates and charges. Any AFPI fees received are treated as other operating revenues of the System and should be utilized to pay for System debt service. A summary of the proposed AFPl fees is shown on Table ES-2 following this letter. At the outset of the study, it was determined that the proposed impact fees should meet a number of goals and objectives. These goals and objectives deal primarily with criteria related to fee sufficiency and level. Specifically, the major objectives considered in this study included: . Existing customers, to the extent practical, should not finance or be impacted by the cost of financing and constructing water and wastewater infrastructure to serve new growth; . The water impact fees should be sufficient to fund the allocable cost of the identified capital requirements associated with providing water production; treatment and transmission service to new development; . The wastewater impact fees should be sufficient to fund the allocable cost of the identified capital requirements associated with providing wastewater transmission, treatment and disposal service to new development; . The impact fees should not be used to fund deficiencies in the capital needs of the water and wastewater utility systems (i.e., no expenditures for renewal and replacement or upgrade of facilities allocable to existing customers); . The impact fees should be based upon reasonable level of service standards that meet the needs of the District, should be indicative of the criteria used for long-term infrastructure planning, and should be consistent with industry standards; . The proposed impact fees should be based on cost of service (full cost recovery) principles; and . New development, to the extent practical, should fund the cost of financing the construction of System infrastructure specifically allocated to expansion; the AFPl fee (carrying charge) provides a basis of recovering such costs and further shifts the burden of expansion-related capital to new growth. The proposed water and wastewater impact fees presented in this report have been structured to meet these objectives. The fees we calculated during the course of our analyses were based on the recovery of capital-related costs that have been incurred and which have available capacity to serve new development as well as costs anticipated to be incurred by the District during the projection period. As previously mentioned, the capital-related costs identified in the eIP were Packet Page -59- Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board of County Commissioners Collier County December 15, 2010 Page 3 2j8j2011 Item 8.B. prepared by the District staff and documented the capital improvement plan for the fiscal year period of201O to 2020, which is the capital needs period considered in the impact fee report. Based on the information provided by the District and the assumptions and considerations outlined in this report, which should be read in its entirety, PRMG considers the proposed impact fees to be cost-based, reasonable, and representative of the allocable capital expenditure needs of the District to serve growth. Additionally, the proposed AFPI fees are considered by PRMG to be reasonable and comparable with similar charges imposed by other Florida utilities. Moreover, such fees provide a basis for the recovery of the cost of capital associated with constructing and financing expansion-related infrastructure. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to the County and would like to thank the County staff for their assistance and cooperation during the course of this study.

ATTACHMENT 1 PUBLIC UTILITIES WATER-SEWER FEE STUDY MEMORANDUM INTRODUCTION The intent of this memorandum is to provide documentation of the steps that staff has completed, and remain to be completed to vet the five (5) water and wastewater related fee studies through interested stakeholders, prior to presentation to the Board for approval on February 8, 2011. Specifically, the five (5) studies include: a) Collier County Water-Sewer District (CCWSD) Impact Fee study; b) CCWSD Water and Wastewater User Fee study; c) Goodland Water District Rate study; d) CCWSD Irrigation Quality (IQ) Rate study; e) CCWSD Wholesale Water Rate Study. CCWSD STAFF ACTIVITIES 'STAKEHOLDER ORDER) COUNTY MANAGER October 7, 2010, staff met with the County Manager and presented the results of the five (5) fee studies. GOODLAND April 20, 2010, staff met with the Goodland Homeowner's Association to discuss the need for a 5% rate increase that would be recommended to the Board for adoption on October 1, 2010. Staff also acknowledged that a rate study was being developed to review the 5 year financial horizon for the Goodland District. August 16, 2010, staff appeared before Marco Island City Council, requesting that Council not pass the contemplated 10.5% water rate increase on to Goodland. Staff requested Council to consider a lower percentage increase, due to the unique bulk service provision of water to Goodland. September 20, 2010, staff again appeared before Marco Island City Council, requesting that Council not pass the contemplated 10.5% water rate increase on to Goodland. City Council voted to pass the 10.5% increase to all customers, including Goodland. Staff requested, and City Council agreed to separately evaluate the Goodland bulk service, as part of a commissioned cost of service study for the Marco Island utility. Packet Page -63- 2/8/2011 Item 8.B. December 7, 2010, staff met with Commissioner Fiala to discuss the results of the Goodland Water District Rate study, prior to a scheduled meeting with the Goodland Homeowner's Association. December 14, 2010, staff met with the Goodland Homeowner's Association to present the results ofthe Goodland Rate study. December 30,2010, staff participated in a phone conversation initiated by Ms. Connie Fullmer, President, Goodland Preservation Coalition. Ms. Fullmer had a number of questions concerning the Goodland Water District, its financial condition, and the rate study. DSAC November 3, 2010, staff delivered copies of the 2011 CCWSD Impact Fee to the DSAC Committee. Staff was scheduled, and delivered an executive summary discussion to the DSAC Committee. The DSAC provided questions to staff; some questions were answered at the meeting, others required follow-up analysis. The DSAC took no action, and staff was scheduled to return for the December 1, 2010 meeting. November 22, 2010, staff responded to DSAC, reference a series of questions provided by individual members. Staff had previously requested all questions be provided to staff by November 19. December 1, 2010, staff again met with the D5AC Committee to discuss the responses to questions provided by staff on November 22. The DSAC Committee took no action; however, provided additional questions for staff. December 8, 2010, staff responded to DSAC, reference questions provided by individual DSAC members at the December 1 meeting. January 5, 2011, staff met with the D5AC Committee to answer outstanding questions, and gain the committee's final position on the impact fee study. The DSAC voted 10 - 3 to recommend approval of the Impact Fee study results. PRODUCTIVITY COMMITTEE November 17, 2010, staff met with the Productivity Committee, and delivered an executive summary discussion of the five (5) fee studies to the Committee for presentation. The committee discussed the results with staff. The committee decided not to create a sub-committee; however, agreed to provide any individual questions back to the staff before the next meeting. One member of the committee to an expanded version of the executive summary for individual review. No further action was taken at the meeting. December 15, 2010, staff met with the Productivity Committee, and was prepared to respond to questions from the committee (no questions had been provided to staff in Packet Page -64- 2/8/2011 Item 8.B. advance of the meeting). One committee member had reviewed the expanded version of the executive summary. The committee member found the information difficult to review, and suggested the need for expanded narrative to better explain the results of the studies, It was also suggested that staff obtain outside legal review of the impact fee study. The committee decided to create a 5 member sub-committee to review the studies. January 4, 2011 (week of), staff is anticipating feedback from outside counsel (Nabors and Giblin) on the methodology, and legal sufficiency of the impact fee study. This action was taken at the suggestion of one of the members of the Productivity Committee. January 19, 2011, staff met with the Productivity Sub-Committee. The sub-committee provided questions to staff in advance of the meeting. Staff responded to the questions prior to the meeting. During the meeting, sub-committee members and staff discussed the responses. The sub-committee noted they would recommend that the committee voted to recommend adoption of the studies. January 19, 2011, immediately after the Productivity Sub-Committee meeting, staff met with the full Productivity Committee to answer any outstanding questions, and gain the committee's final position on the fee studies. The Productivity Committee unanimously recommended adoption ofthe studies.

November 19, 2010, staff met with the Chamber of Commerce Public Policy Committee to discuss the Collier County Water-Sewer District (CCWSD) Impact Fees.

Topics included the operational, available capacity and financial strength of the utility.
