Plymouth History of the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities (Metro Cities) Metro Cities had its official beginning in 1966,as the Metropolitan Section of the League of Minnesota Municipalities(LMM),the previous name of today's League of Minnesota Cities. During the early to mid 1960's, it had become apparent to officials that the seven county metro area would grow at an accellerated rate and present issues of significance that were purely metropolitan in nature. At the time, there was a Metropolitan Planning Commission, several sanitary sewer districts and a need for coordinated mass transit planning. Much of the discussion concerned the need for a form of metropolitan governance. The LMM was becoming more involved in legislative activities dealing specifically with metro issues and non-metro city members were concerned that their dues were disproportionately supporting lobbying on metro-specific issues. An LMM Metro Affairs Committee developed a report suggesting the creation of a metro-wide municipal organization. At the 1966 Annual Convention in Rochester,the LMM constitution was amended to allow for creation of the `Metropolitan Section' as a separate organization of LMM cities. The constitution was amended to state that the new organization would have its own bylaws, dues, Board of Directors, and legislative policies, and that the organization's president would serve as an ex officio member of the statewide organization's Board. An informational meeting of metro-area cities was held August 3, 1966 and the organization was officially created on September 29, 1966,under the direction of executive secretary Dean Lund. Policy committees were quickly established, and the new organization began lobbying on the creation of the Metropolitan Council. During the 1967 legislative session,the Metropolitan Council was established to coordinate the planning and development of the metropolitan area. It was empowered to prepare a comprehensive development guide for orderly and economic development including such matters as land use, parks and open space,airports,highways, transit facilities and other public buildings, and to review and comment on local plans. The metropolitan city organization was then heavily involved in shaping and limiting the authority of the Council through and beyond passage of the 1976 Land Planning Act. In 1969,the Metro Section changed its name to the Metropolitan League of Municipalities (MLM). According to Conway Olson,a Board member from Cottage Grove at that time,the purpose of the name change was to eliminate confusion as to the source and support of policy. The new name indicated that the policies supported by the Metro Section of the League were not policy of the state League. Paul Dow was Executive Director at the time, having been hired to replace Dean Lund. In November of 1972, Gene Franchett replaced Paul Dow and remained Executive Director through 1974 when Vern Peterson was promoted from Director of Legislative Affairs to Executive Director commencing January 1975. , (over please) Formation of the AMM Between 1972 and early 1974,the Hennepin County League of Cities,made up of suburban Hennepin County cities but not Minneapolis, attempted to expand itself into the Suburban League in direct competition to the MLM. The new Suburban League drew only one or two cities from outside Hennepin County and in 1974 petitioned to merge with the MLM. On June 6, 1974,the two organizations merged to become the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities and AMM was born. Vern Peterson served as AMM Executive Director from January 1975 through October 1997. Gene Ranieri was then hired and worked from December 1997 through August of 2004 before we hired Louis Jambois who started in November 2004. Louie served as Director until 2008 before he left for the St Paul Port Authority. Patricia Nauman,AMM Government Relations Specialist, was promoted by the Board to the position of Executive Director in January, 2009. Current Relationship with the League of Minnesota Cities AMM is the only metro-wide organization representing cities at the Legislature and the Metropolitan Council. In addition to being physically located within the League of Minnesota Cities(LMC)building and working closely with the League staff,the AMM maintains its unique status as an affiliate organization of the LMC. The AMM has never legally established itself as a separate organization, so for the purposes of things like payroll taxes,the AMM is still part of the League. In addition to paying rent for our offices,AMM contracts with the League to provide our accounting and financial services,payroll and employee benefits. AMM members must be members of the LMC and member dues are calculated as a percentage of LMC dues. Amendments to our bylaws are sent to the LMC Board for review and a two- thirds super majority vote is required for AMM to adopt a legislative policy position that conflicts with one of the League's policy positions. Metro Cities In fall 2006 AMM staff introduced the idea of creating a more understandable and descriptive identity for AMM. Association of Metropolitan Municipalities' is 17 syllables. It's hard to remember and hard to say. Many are unsure what a"municipality" is,or isn't. A common question is,"Do you represent the townships too?"or"Are counties part of your organization"? AMM is a fine acronym. But it can be easily confused with other local government advocacy acronyms—LMC,MLC,RCM, CGMG,AMC,etc. We didn't want to recommend a change that would require a bylaw or legislative amendment, but rather a simple brand and an updated logo. The Board approved the new brand/logo and it was unveiled at the Policy Adoption Meeting on November 16, 2006. We are now called Metro Cities with the logo listing Association of Metropolitan Municipalities as the tagline. Metro Cities Services In addition to our core activity of lobbying on behalf of our members at the Legislature and the Metropolitan Council,Metro Cities provides the following services: METRO CITIES NEWS METRO CITIES NEWS is the organization's primary newsletter,containing information about happenings at the Legislature and the Metropolitan Council,upcoming meetings, decisions made by the Board of Directors and progress reports from our summer policy committees. The newsletter is emailed to member cities on an as-needed basis. During the legislative session and other busy times of the year, members often receive one newsletters per week, while during slower times they might receive it once every-other week. www.metrocitiesmn.org The Metro Cities website is an increasingly important mode of communication with our members and the public. The website contains a listing of our members, Board and staff; the text of our legislative policy positions; access to our bill tracking system and the latest online newsletter;and links to a variety of other sites, including the Legislature and the Metropolitan Council. We also post a variety of issue papers,bill summaries and reports on the website.

Housing and Economic Development 2. Municipal Revenue&Taxation 3. Transportation&General Legislation 4. Metropolitan Agencies Officials of any member city may serve on a committee of their choice. Each committee meets approximately four times during the late summer and early fall and then submits policy recommendations to the Board of Directors for review, modification and distribution to the general membership. The general membership meets in November before each legislative session to debate and adopt the official Metro Cities positions for that session. In matters of legislative policy, each member city has one vote,plus one additional vote for each 50,000 population or major fraction thereof above the initial 50,000.Legislative policy requires a two-thirds affirmative vote of the members present and voting to be adopted. During the legislative session,when the committees are not meeting,the Board of Directors can establish a policy position,with a two-thirds majority vote, in response to pending legislation or agency rules and regulations. This position is then referred to the appropriate committee for review and formal policy development at the earliest possible time. The Housing and Economic Development Committee considers all issues related to economic development and housing, including subsidized housing,affordable housing and proposals of the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency(MHFA). It also develops policy dealing with economic development issues,HRAs,tax increment financing (TIF)and development authorities. The Municipal Revenues Committee considers any matter concerning city revenues, property taxes,and city expenditures; including state aid formulas and dollars, levy limits,property tax assessments and fiscal disparities. The Transportation and General Legislation Committee considers all major issues related to air and surface transportation, including funding sources at all government levels. Metro Cities appointees to the Transportation Advisory Board(TAB)and Technical Advisory Committee(TAC) are encouraged to join,along with other city officials. This committee also considers all major issues that have an impact on (over,please) metropolitan area cities outside the scope of other Metro Cities' committees. This includes issues such as municipal consolidation,pensions,PELRA,pay equity,data privacy,contractor licensing and local control/authority. The Metropolitan Agencies Committee considers legislative issues and other policies related to the Metropolitan Council and metro agencies. It monitors the structure and relationship between the regional and local units of government and reviews amendments to the Metropolitan Development Guide and subsequent policy plans. It has previously developed policy on land use planning,solid waste management and the Met Council selection process. It also reviews the Met Council's yearly budget. i Metro Cities 2015 Legislative Policy Committees ****************************************************************************************** Metro Cities' policy committees annually develop policy recommendations based on input from member city representatives.

I appreciated the chance to discuss the potential of the city's membership in Metro Cities,and the services that we provide to our member communities. I wanted to follow up to reiterate a few points for your consideration, should the city consider membership. As we discussed,Metro Cities represents cities at the Metropolitan Council and Legislature, based on policies developed through the consensus of our membership. We play a unique role in the local government community as we are the only organization representing cities at the Metropolitan Council—a key reason for the creation of the organization nearly 50 years ago. Metro Cities'policies cover a range of topics on issues such as transportation,economic development/redevelopment,housing,municipal revenues and the regional level policies that are set at the Met Council. As a member,the city would have the opportunity to provide input to and influence the policies of the organization. Metro Cities'mission is to represent the joint interests of cities in the region,and our policies are balanced to reflect the varying needs and challenges of metro communities. Because the organization represents cities from across the seven county metro region,we can leverage the strength of our membership as we work to advance policies that benefit metro communities and to work to mitigate those that adversely impact our members. Our goal is to be a strong and trusted voice for cities in the region. In addition to our work at the Capitol and Met Council,we also provide other services for your dues,including an on-line newsletter containing updated information on our activities at the Legislature and Met Council as well as legislative alerts to keep cities abreast of specific issues and to encourage contact with local legislators on key issues. During the legislative session,we regularly note bills of key interest to metro communities. We also sometimes call upon our member city officials to provide testimony when appropriate,on issues that are of particular significance to the city. Metro Cities also serves as a forum for metro cities to discuss issues of interest to our communities and we regularly host regional forums for our members on pertinent topics.These 145 University Ave W•St.Paul,MN 55103-2044•Phone(651)215-4000•Fax(651)281-1299•www.MetroCitiesMN.org have included forums on water supply,organized waste,the new regional development guide, and others. We also host an annual meeting to elect new members and board officers,and co- host a metro regional meeting with the League of MN Cities each fall,each of which offer important opportunities for city officials to get to know and network with each other. A couple further points for your consideration. As I noted,Metro Cities is the only region wide entity that monitors the work of the Met Council.As such,Met Council staff knows our staff; they seek our advice and pay attention to our communications with our membership about their activities. There is no question we influence their decisions. We push back when we need to, and collaborate with them when we can. Metro Cities is unique among city organizations in that we have statutory appointing authority i for the Met Council's TAB(Transportation Advisory Board)and TAC(Technical Advisory Committee),as well as the regional Water Supply Advisory Committee. These present important opportunities for metro cities to have influence on various policy decisions that affect the entire metro region. We also regularly make recommendations for various legislative and regional boards and task forces. These are other opportunities for the city to have influence on policies and activities that affect your city and cities across the region. As I mentioned in our meeting,the Metro Cities Board of Directors has authorized an introductory membership discount for new members in 2016. If the city were to become a member of our organization next year,the dues would amount to$3,805.00. This figure represents a 50%discount in dues for 2016. In closing,Dave,we believe that Metro Cities provides you with great value for your investment. Please let me know if you have any questions,or would like additional information. I hope to see you again soon.

DISCUSSION The Farmington Fire Department Relief Association has not had an increase to the pension contribution since 2007 and lags significantly behind neighboring communities. The members of the Farmington Fire Department are committed to providing exceptional public safety skills to the community and donate hundreds of hours of community service for activities lice fire prevention, public education,National Night Out, station tours, blood pressure checks, school visits and our Fire Prevention Week open house in order to make Farmington such a great place to live and work. These donated community service hours are in addition to the hundreds of unpaid firefighter academy training hours invested in order to become a member of the department. Finally,members of the department respond at all hours of the day and night to protect their neighbors and friends for a small hourly wage. The average Farmington firefighter responded to over 300 emergency incidents last year alone. Members of the Relief Association will present information and discuss this request. BUDGET IMPACT An increase in the annual pension contribution from$4,575.00 annually to $5,500.00 annually. With an authorized strength of 50 members the increase could cost up to $46,250.00 per year. ACTION REQUESTED Listen to the presentation and ask any questions you may have. ,ATTACHMENT • Type Description c, Backup Material Fire Relief Pension Proposal February 25,2016 Mr.David McKnight-City Administrator 430 3rd Street Farmington,MN 55024 Dear Mr.McKnight, As President of the Farmington Firefighters Relief Association I would like to propose a series of modest increases to the annual pension contribution our firefighters are awarded for their years of service beginning January 1,2017. The current benefit is$4,575.00 per year of service and has not been increased since 2009. January 1,2017 from$4,575.00 to$5,500.00 20.22% January 1,2018 from$5,500.00 to$6,250.00 13.64% January 1,2019 from$6,250.00 to$7,000.00 12.00% January 1,2020 from$7,000.00 to$7,500.00 7.14% Please allow me to offer some factors to consider regarding this request and my recommendation: 1. The Benefit of the Pension: In the State of Minnesota nearly 90%of all fire departments are comprised of volunteer or paid on call firefighters.This proud tradition relies upon dedicated members of the community to provide emergency services in time of community need.Here in Farmington we are immensely proud of our 143 years of consistent service to the community using generations of volunteer and paid on call personnel.This kind of community involvement saves a community like Farmington millions of dollars per year in personnel and benefit costs. In comparison to a career firefighter,our paid on call firefighters earn a substantially smaller hourly pay rate and retirement benefit while providing the same services of a career firefighter with the same levels of training and certification requirements. The pension offered through fire relief is critically important to maintain the stability of having senior firefighters and to contribute to the growth of a new generation of firefighters who can provide 20 years or more of service to the City of Farmington.The pension represents a career of service and is a symbol of thanks for the hard work and selfless dedication that members give to the community. A Farmington firefighter begins his or her career by donating hundreds of hours to attend the training academy for no pay whatsoever.The training required for a firefighter is the same whether they are a paid career member or a paid on call firefighter.In addition,your firefighters donate hundreds if not thousands of hours to the community as they represent our fire department at block parties,school tours, parades,and countless public education events throughout every year. As you know,it costs a lot of money to recruit,train and most importantly retain a paid on call firefighter.Volunteer and paid on call fire departments all over the United States are struggling to keep members with all of the increased training and call requirements.A strong annual pension contribution will assist us in attracting and retaining a competent firefighting staff for years to come. Life is busier than ever before and we find it harder and harder to attract members of the community who can give the time and energy to becoming a paid on call firefighter. In order to be competitive we must increase the annual pension contribution.Doing so will help us to retain firefighters who may look at an early out rather than invest in a 20 year career at Farmington. It is my belief that we would retain a larger group of 20 year members if the payout were greater as these members contemplate retirement. 2. Reasonable Pension Increase Request: The Farmington Firefighters Relief Association believes the request to increase the annual pension benefit is reasonable and necessary to stay competitive with similarly situated Metro area lump sum relief association benefits. This is a method to retain and motivate firefighters who give considerable commitment to the city.The increase works out to: 2017-$975.00 2018 -$750.00 2019-$750.00 2020-$500.00 It should be noted that this increase is not likely to"cost more".The pension fund is currently overfunded and well managed.In addition,over the past year the department has become a more professional organization with the addition of a full time fire chief and morale is high.There is no expected`Mass exodus"as has happened in the past. The neighboring cities have increased their pension rates and will be continuing to do so in the near future. I have communicated with all of the neighboring communities and their goal is to have a pension rate of$10,000 per year by 2020. At our current rate we will be less than half of their goal. This will put us a major disadvantage for recruiting and keeping our current firefighters. (See Appendix A) 3. The Value of Consistent Community Support of the Pension Benefit: The Farmington Fire Relief Association believes there is a value in consistent community support. The 10-year average for past municipal contributions is$126,366. For the past three years the city has contributed$150,000. This commitment by the city has not gone unnoticed by the firefighters.Knowing that the city is doing what it can to support the firefighters has contributed to increased morale and dedication by the firefighters to make this a great fire department and city to work for. (See Appendix B) 4. Long Tenn Fund Sustainability: The Special Fund investment account managed by the Farmington Fire Relief Association is currently beyond a fully funded status at 146%. It has continued to grow steadily since 2009 after the stock market crash. With the help of a financial advisor our retirement fund has outperformed the state board of investments every year since 2009. (See Appendix C) 5. City Financial Impact: The Relief Association pension portfolio is currently 146%and over funded. With the pension increase to$5,500 it will put the relief association at 129%,and still over funded. Our goal is to stay above 115%and remain over funded at all times. This built in cushion allows for a significant down turn in the stock market and will greatly reduce the possibility of the city being required to contribute to the Farmington Firefighters Relief Association Pension. (See Appendix D) 6. What caused the pension fund to grow so rapidly? We have enjoyed a strong return on our investments over the past year.In addition,we had ten individuals who retired. Several of those members had ten years on the department which only entitles them to 60%of their retirement. Several other members did not complete the required ten years of service to become"vested"and subsequently they did not receive any portion of their retirement. This "extra money"has stayed with the pension fund and helped it grow very rapidly. 7. Future Projections: The future goals of the pension rely upon two income sources to stay the same. The first is an unknown; the stock market. If the stock market continues to grow the funding in the account will grow. The second is the city contribution. We need to maintain the current funding to this account to see additional growth in the fund. We have a number of individuals who will be eligible to retire with 20 years of service in the next year. In addition,we have numerous individuals who have already reached the ten years of service level. If our request is approved,our members are hoping to see a pension rate of$7,500 by 2020. The surrounding fire relief associations are aiming for$10,000 by 2020. This still puts us$2,500 down from what other funds plan to offer,but it shows an effort by the city to support the firefighters without adding additional cost to the city. We believe that conservative,measured and managed pension benefit increases are both reasonable and necessary to maintain an appropriate firefighting force in the City of Farmington. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this information and open a dialogue on this important matter. Sincerely, Jeffrey A.

DISCUSSION The Intergovernmental Committee has discussed the idea of having the fire department available at the four to five high school football games that are held at Tiger Stadium each fall. Since the fire chief will be in attendance at the work session on March 14, 2016 I thought it would be a good idea to discuss this issue at this meeting. As you are probably aware we usually do have two police officers in attendance for most or all of the games. BUDGET IMPACT TBD ACTION REQUESTED Discuss the request to have the fire department available at high school football games and provide staff direction as you see fit. FAR / City of Farmington 430 Third Street Farmington,Minnesota 651.280.6800 -Fax 651.280.6899 '4 www.cifarmington.mn.us TO: Mayor, Councilmembers and City Administrator FROM: Adam Kienberger, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Community Solar Subscriber Collaborative DATE: March 14,2016 INTRODUCTION On June 15, 2015 the city council authorized a non-binding letter of intent be sent to the Metropolitan Council expressing Farmington's interest in subscribing to solar production via a collaborative Request for Proposals (RFP)process. Community solar gardens and community solar subscriptions have recently become a popular topic in Minnesota communities serviced wholly or partially by Xcel Energy. This is due in part to legislation requiring Xcel Energy(as a public utility) to produce via solar energy a percentage of its total retail electric sales to retail customers in Minnesota by 2020. With this mandated production deadline in place, many private companies are actively working to develop solar production facilities and secure customers via community solar subscriptions to take advantage of available energy credits. DISCUSSION The City of Farmington(along with many other communities throughout the Metro)has been approached by several private companies seeking to partner with the city to purchase solar energy. This has the opportunity to reduce a portion of the city's electric utility bills from Xcel Energy. Municipalities tend to be desirable customers due to several factors including consistent energy usage, timeliness of payments, and inability to relocate. Because this is a new and complex topic, there has been a lot of discussion on regional collaboration for producing an RFP to leverage the knowledge of governmental entities that have more resources dedicated to energy management and purchase power agreements. _ The Community Solar Subscriber Collaborative is offering metro area local governments the opportunity to procure solar garden subscriptions from a single RFP process. The collaborative is a joint effort of the Metropolitan Council, Hennepin County,Ramsey County,the City of Minneapolis,the Great Plains Institute, and CERTs. By working together,government entities gain an economy of scale and reduced administrative costs. Community Solar Gardens create a new opportunity for local government entities to support clean energy, save on energy bills for public buildings and plants, and hedge against the future price volatility of electricity. Potential benefits of participating in the collaborative include: • Better subscription pricing enabled by a larger procurement • Faster entry into the solar garden market • Reduced staff time needed to run an RFP process • Eases solar garden developers' task of fmding high-quality subscribers • Creates opportunity for local governments of all sizes • Can hedge against volatile electricity prices Selection Process Summary Five developers proposed subscription opportunities in response to the RFP. All five developers' business terms were deemed acceptable by the selection committee and advanced to negotiation. While the selection committee felt that each of these options was worth consideration, it is ultimately up to each participant to individually evaluate the opportunity. Participants should keep in mind that Metropolitan Council staff negotiated for the best possible terms and contract language, according to Council policies. Metropolitan Council recently held a"lottery"to give cities the opportunity to enter into contracts with these selected solar garden developers. Farmington was selected to participate with the vendor SolarStone Community LLC. We have received draft contracts and are proposing to move forward with a subscription load of 600 kW (three gardens at 200 kW each). A breakdown of estimated subscriptions for specific municipal facilities is attached. Because this is a new and complex topic I have attempted to highlight some key points of consideration. Knowns: • This initiative has the potential to save the city money on its current utility bills from Xcel Energy • This would be a 25 year commitment(rates are based on expected life of the equipment) • Proposed costs per kW/h($0.122/kWh) • Proposed annual escalator(1%) • Estimated potential savings ($388,000 NPV over 25 years)—see attached calculator Unknowns: • The future of energy technology and future energy prices (alternative methods may be developed at lower costs) • Exact amount of potential savings • If the selected vendor will even be able to construct a solar garden(s) to meet demand in our region (as regulated by the PUC) Assumptions: • Farmington will continue to grow and municipal services will see in increased demand for electricity from Xcel Energy facilities • Traditional energy production prices will continue to increase(2.65% annually based on past 13 years of Xcel Energy rate data) BUDGET IMPACT See calculator for estimated savings over 25 years. ACTION REQUESTED Review the above information and discuss the city's interest in formally moving forward with solar subscription agreements with SolarStone Community LLC. The City Attorney has reviewed the contract and is comfortable with the language and procurement process.

The financial plan will be a guiding document for future city budgets, including the 2017 budget. City staff will present the financial plan at the work session. DISCUSSION As you may recall, city staff presented the first version of the financial plan to the city council in 2015. At that time,while the city council laced the idea of developing a long-term plan,you had concerns with some of the potential tax levy increases included in the plan, among other issues. City staff started work on this issue a number of years ago for a variety of reasons. Staff continues to stress the importance of comprehensive financial planning for the following reasons: 1. We need to ensure that we have the resources to continue service delivery for our residents. 2. The city council has expressed the desire to pay down our current debt and to reduce our reliance on debt financing for future projects. 3. The city council has expressed a desire to move to "pay to as we go" (cash)as much as possible when it comes to paying for street projects and large equipment purchases. 4. The city council has demonstrated over a number of years that they are willing to take the necessary steps to become a city of fiscal excellence. 5. The city desires to ensure transparency in all of our CIP plans and how we proposed to fund them. With these goals in mind, capital improvement plans (CIP's)were developed for a number of areas. These CIP's will be explained in this memo and the financial implications are included in the spreadsheets for each plan. A summary sheet for all of this information is included as an attachment for your review. Summary Sheet The summary sheet shows you the cost of our projected operating budgets,the different CIP's, our projected revenues in each year including fiscal disparities,our known and projected debt costs and the estimated levy increase that will be needed each year. Almost all of the costs listed on the summary page are associated with a CIP that is linked to the summary page and attached for your review. We needed a"starting point" for the operating budget. To determine that we took the 2016 expenditures ($14,769,073)and subtracted our 2016 debt($2,970,848)to give us our base 2016 operating levy number of $11,798,225. The operating budget includes all of the people, supplies,utilities, etc. costs that fall outside of the CIP approach used with this plan. To move these costs forward in the plan, the base number was increased 3% for 2017, 3%for 2018 and 5%for 2019. This approach is repeated every three years. These costs are projected to cover increases in costs to labor, etc.with the third year increase of 5%assuming we have growth in staffing. This was the approach we developed;it is not based on science,but rather out best guess as to potential cost increases. I will review the summary sheet in detail at your work session to make sure you understand the plan. Transfers Out Budget Over the past few years you have seen the development and growth of the Transfers Out Budget. This is the line item where we have placed multi-year projects, ble sealcoating,that carry over their balance from year to year. In addition, this is the area where we track the projects we fund with our Local Government Aid dollars. All of these transfer dollars are included in the base levy number,but it is important to understand that these projects are included. As you will see from the attached spreadsheet,we have our LGA dollars committed through 2019. In 2020, approximately$150,000 per year will become available for other uses. Assuming LGA funding is not discontinued as it has been in the past,possible uses could include use for the purchase of city equipment, funding for building maintenance or possibly looking at costs associated with projects ble the emerald ash borer issue you recently discussed in a work session. These dollars will remain undesignated at this point,but it is important to remember that we will have unforeseen issues we will need to address. Fire Department Vehicle CIP As the city council is well aware,the fire department has had a separate CIP for their vehicles in place since 2013. This plan was put in place to speed up the process of replacing a number of vehicles in the department that had fallen behind their original replacement schedule. The fire department CIP has been updated a number of times over the past few years and will remain separate from the city vehicle CIP until 2020. At that time the fire department vehicle needs will be rolled into the citywide vehicle CIP. After 2016 the only remaining vehicle in this CIP is a new engine that will be purchased in 2019. Dollars for this purchase are being set aside during 2017,2018 and 2019 in order the pay cash for this vehicle. Firefighter Equipment One of the areas that the city has tried to become more proactive in planning for is the purchase and/or replacement of large scale and more costly equipment in our public safety departments. In this case equipment does not include vehicles,those future costs are addressed in different CIF's. The fire department has made progress in this area by being able to include the cost of turnout gear and SCUBA equipment in their operating budget. To incorporate the additional needs they have in this area we initially took the proposed equipment CIP that was developed in 2011 and update it for this financial plan. We added the"additional costs" item to the summary page to begin to account for the cost of this equipment. The fire department has proposed a plan that over the length of the financial plan can be accounted for financially,but has more of the purchases focused towards the beginning of the plan. I have asked the department to rework their plan to fit within the financial framework of the overall financial plan. We will continue to perform this work while the financial plan is discussed. Police Equipment • Much like the fire department,the police department has equipment needs that we are planning for. Again, this equipment plan does not include vehicles as those are accounted for in a separate CIP. The equipment in this plan is very straightforward and has a predictable replacement schedule. Some of this equipment is already included in the annual operating budget. The line included on the summary sheet for police equipment reflects the increased costs for this equipment. Trail Maintenance CIP The city council approved the trail maintenance CIP in 2014. The city currently has approximately 44 miles of trail located throughout the city. The trails, much like our city streets,need to have preventive maintenance in order the extend the life of the investment and keep them in operating condition. The transfers out budget has included$30,000 per year for this work since 2014. Some of the work that is performed includes fog sealing and cracking sealing. The trail maintenance plan calls for increased funding for this plan starting in 2017. The summary sheet includes a line item that includes the"increased" funding amount. The original$30,000 per year funding is included in the transfers out budget. The CIP requires additional funding to pay for some of the larger maintenance projects in the future including overlays and reconstruction. Building CIP The city council has discussed the issue of dollars that are/will be needed to maintain our city facilities. We currently have$30 million in city facilities according to our insurance documents. Starting in 2014 we began setting dollars aside in the transfers out budget for building maintenance needs. The 2016 budget includes $15,000 from the tax levy and$36,607 from LGA for building maintenance needs. Industry standards typically call for 2% of your building value to be set aside each year for building maintenance and replacement needs. If you take this approach we should be setting aside$600,000 per year for our building maintenance and replacement needs. City staff realizes that this number is not realistic,but at the same time we understand that only budgeting$51,000 per year for these needs which started just a few years ago is also not realistic. The summary sheet includes a line item for a building CIP. There is no detail for the work associated with this CIP at this time. It was included in the plan so we start to address this very important issue. The numbers that were included in future years we selected because they fit into the levy that is proposed for those specific years. This is an issue that needs more discussion for a number of reasons. The most important of which is we have needs in our facilities today that need to be addressed. City Vehicle CIP City staff has spent significant time developing a replacement schedule for city vehicles and equipment that are included in the General Fund. This includes the vehicles and related equipment we use in building inspections, engineering,police, fire, streets and parks. The vehicles used in our other funds are not included in this plan since they are not paid for through the tax levy. The city vehicle CIP is not scheduled to start until the year 2020. There are two exceptions to this schedule. The first is the fire department CIP that you have separately approved. Second,we have been setting aside some dollars each year as a band aid to cover these vehicles until the start of this plan in 2020. The cost of these vehicles and related equipment is included on the summary sheet under the"plus debt levy" and"plus pay as we go levy." Most of these vehicles are purchased with cash. The exceptions are the five larger fire department purchases proposed starting in 2023. These proposed purchases will need to be discussed with the city council. Current Debt/Future Debt/Street CIP This spreadsheet should be considered the guts of the entire plan. This spreadsheet includes a number of pieces that I will go through at the work session. The first section is a summary of our current debt split between the Road and Bridge Fund and Non-Road and Bridge Fund projects. Our current debt includes 12 debt issues which we are making payments on in 2016. These 12 issues will be paid in full in the year 2027. The second section is a summary of the proposed street CIP projects. As you recall you have already completed the first three street CIP projects over the past three years. The next project is proposed for 2019 and the plan includes nine other projects in addition to "multiple" and "TBD" areas. Below the projects section is the proposed financing plan for these projects. As you will see we are proposing a combination of tax dollars used as cash,bonded debt and individual fund contributions to pay for these projects. The most important thing to remember in this area is that we are moving to pay for a portion and ultimately all of these projects with cash which significantly reduces the cost to taxpayers. The third section of this spreadsheet is a summary of the vehicle CIP by department and the proposed financing of these purchases. Most of the purchases in the vehicle CIP are funded through the tax levy and paid for with cash as we go as previously mentioned. The exception to this approach are the five fire department vehicles that are proposed that we would need to issue debt to purchase, listed as bonded debt in this section. The final section of this spreadsheet is a summary of the dollars needed to fund these projects. The bottom portion of the spreadsheet shows the different dollars we need to collect to both pay our debt payments and collect as cash to pay as we go. This information is transferred to the summary sheet and listed as "plus debt levy" and"plus pay as we go levy." I understand there is a lot of information included in this spreadsheet and it can be very confusing. I am confident that once we present this information to you at the work session you will be able to follow along and understand it better. BUDGET IMPACT TBD ACTION REQUESTED There is a significant amount of information included in the financial plan. City staff will take as much time as is needed to review all of the information and ensure that you all understand what we are discussing. I do not expect any action or direction at your March 14, 2016 work session. I fully anticipate that this issue will be discussed at your April 11, 2016 work session and potentially the April 15,2016 goal setting session. I will have paper copies of all of the spreadsheets available at the work session. Having larger paper copies of this information can make your review of the information a little easier.
