EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION
COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING DATE: March 13, 2003
AGENDA ITEM: User Fee Analysis Study
AGENDA SECTION:
PREPARED BY: Jeff May, Finance Director

AGENDA NO.
ATTACHMENTS: Draft User Fee Study from Springsted
APPROVED BY:
Attached for your review and discussion is a draft of the user fee study from Springsted, our financial
advisors, that addresses all the City's user fees except for fees related to the Parks & Recreation
Department. This study was originally driven by the Builder's Association and from individual
developers who have questioned how we and other communities charge fees to the developers and
builders. We are also dealing with budget cuts from the State as they deal with their deficit and we
are being required to provide detailed reporting to the State for 2002 and beyond on how we use the
building permit fees that we collect. With this is mind, the Council authorized this study in 2002 to try
to get a handle on how to accomplish justifying, and possibly updating, all of the fees that we
currently collect. Council and staff felt that by having an outside organization look at our fees that it
would give more credibility to the fees that we come up with after the study is done. We will be
updating our fees from year to year by plugging in more current budget and actual figures.
Representatives from Springsted will be present this evening give a brief overview of the
methodology used to complete the study and summarize some of the major changes being
proposed. After this staff and the Springsted representatives will be available to address issues the
Council may have.
After discussion this evening, we will prepare a final document that will be used to adjust our fees by
amending our fee resolution. As we update the document annually we will adjust our fees at the
same time by resolution.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discussion only.

LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

Re: User Fee Study
Dear: Mr. Kalstabakken and Mr. May:
Enclosed for your review is a summary of the final report of the User Fee Study for the City of
Rosemount. As you are aware, the study examines existing service fees and recommends
changes and additions to your current fee schedule. We believe our recommendations will
assist you in your decision making process and to better understand you service fee schedule
and structure.
This Study examines approximately 213 fees and charges. After our anlysis of the costs
related to the delivery of selected City services, we recommend that ninety -eight (98) different
fees be increased, twenty -nine (29) fees be decreased or eliminated and that five (5) new fees
be implemented. Relying on information received during the course of the Study, we estimate
that the recommendations will generate approximately $157,000 in increased fees and $5,000
in new fees. If all the recommendations are adopted they would generate an additional
$127,000 per year. We have also made recommendations regarding transfer charges to the
Utility funds and the Port Authority which could generate approximately $420,000 in annual
revenues.
i Respectfully submitted,
Springsted Incorporated

Executive Summary
The User Fee Study p City provides the Ci of Rosemount with documented
support for policy making decision making relating to finance and service
delivery. This study is a systematic and documented approach to the City's
efforts to recapture costs related to service demands and economic
conditions. The background data will assist the City to answer questions
from businesses and residents of the City and will give City officials a better
understanding of alternatives available as they develop a strategic plan or
financial blueprint for the City.
The Study focuses on the real costs of delivery of individual City services and
identifies costs which have been absorbed by the City.
The Study also summarizes available data and presents recommendations
that will contribute to the financial integrity of the City by helping to establish
good business principles regarding its cost recovery options.
The Study develops a direct relationship between the payments made for
services and the services delivered. Through interviews and other data
gathering methods, information has been assembled which permits the
comparison of the cost of services provided and the fees currently charged
for those services. As a result of the analysis of cost versus fees charged, a
series of recommendations have been developed that suggest adjustments
to fees which appear to subsidize the service provided. These
recommendations should ultimately be measured by the City's policies
regarding the desirability or essentiality of providing subsidies in certain
areas.
As a result of the User Fee Study, it is recommended that:
1) Ninety -eight (98) fees and charges be increased, generating
estimated additional revenue of $157,040 per year based on the
methodology contained in this report;
2) Five (5) new fees and charges be initiated, which in total create an
estimated additional $4,980 of annual revenues for the City based
on the methodology contained in this report;
3) Nineteen (19) fees and charges be decreased, reducing estimated
annual revenues by $35,298 for the City based on the methodology
in this report.
4) Ten (10) fees and charges be eliminated, reducing estimated
annual revenues by $391 for the City based on the methodology in
this report.

5)
Changes to the current contributions from the Port Authority, Water
Utility, Sewer Utility, Storm Water Utility and Ice Arena be
implemmented, which would increase contributions to the General
Fund by $418,593 in annual transfer charges based on the
methodology contained in this report.
6)
Charges for building permits and related plan check fees be reviewed
at the point in time when there are changes to the prescribed
methods of fee calculation in the State Uniform Building Code.
7)
The City consistently apply an overhead percentage when
implementing charges for services.
8)
The City periodically review its user fees and charges, changes in
staff salaries, changes in City overhead, and the initiation of any
new services, in order to continue updating and making its fee
schedule current.

5% Administrative Fee - Development 5% Const Cost - (1)
The current fee is based on 5% of estimated construction costs. Cost
Agreement
above represents cost of time involved in administering a development
once the development agreement has been initiated. This is staffs best
estimate of an "average" process for a development. The City on average
has collected approximately $28,376 on projects during 2001 and 2002
utilizing 5% of construction costs.
The 5 % administrative fee is allocated 40% to the General Fund and 20%
to each of the Utility Funds respectively. When considering actual time
spent by General Fund employees on this process, the allocation would be
closer to 85% General Fund and 5% to each of the Utility Funds
respectively.
(2)
Proposed Fee - It is recommended that the City change the allocation of
the fee to 85% to the General Fund and 5% to each of the Utility Funds
respectively. Utilizing information from 2001 and 2002 this change would
have generated approximately $300,000 in additional revenues for the

Introduction
Springsted Incorporated has been engaged to assist the City of Rosemount
with a user fee study in order to provide the City with information relating to
current user fee levels and the potential availability of new and/or increased
user fees. The study was also undertaken to provide the City with additional
information which was systematically developed and documented so that
managerial and policy decisions could be made based on more complete
information than was previously available. In addition, the study identifies
costs incurred for services provided by the City's General Fund to other
various funds, and provides Rosemount with more revenue options to
diversify the General Fund revenue base.
The user fee study consists of two phases. The first phase includes a review
of the general level on existing user fees and a determination of whether or
not other user fees might be charged. This phase of the study also includes
the identification of indirect costs which the City currently incurs when
providing services associated with user fees. This portion of the study
emphasizes the development of an accurate overhead allocation that reflects
real City staff time and how that time is allocated among the various City
departments. In addition, this information will be used to determine the value
of time spent by tax - supported areas.
The second phase of the study involves a more detailed and comprehensive
analysis of each of the user fees currently charged and will include specific
recommendations regarding the appropriate user fee levels based upon
Springsted's analysis and comparative data that it has accumulated.
Upon completion of this study, the City will have a summary and analysis of
the information gathered relating to its user fees and a final report which will
make long - term recommendations regarding current and future user fees for
the City of Rosemount.
The goals of the user fee study are to:
✓ Assist the City in defining and selecting services for which user fees
may be appropriate.
✓
Assist in identifying new services for which user fees may be charged,
✓ Provide a more diversified revenue base for the City.
✓ Provide a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the real cost of
providing various services
✓ Reduce subsidies from the General Fund for services provided to
individual user groups.
✓ Establish charges and transfers that are logical and defensible.

Background
The User Fee Study consists of two phases. Phase I includes a review of
existing user fees and the general level of the fees, a determination of
' whether other user fees might be charged, and the identification of indirect
costs that the City incurs when providing services associated with user fees.
This phase emphasized the development of an administrative overhead
allocation and an examination of city user fees.
The second phase involves a more detail- comprehensive analysis of each of
the user fees currently charged by the City of Rosemount. The Study made
estimates regarding hourly rates for each of the departments that provide
' services to City residents. The hourly rate for each department is a fully
funded rate that includes direct and indirect costs for employees who provide
specific services. if more than one employee provides the same service and
their salaries and wages are different, an average of the employees' salaries
and wages is calculated and applied to the service cost.
The value of this Study rests, impart, on the information obtained through
personal interviews conducted with senior management and other pertinent
staff members. The validity of the Study therefore depends upon the
' accuracy of the data which is based on personal observation, personal
experience, and management intuition. In some cases, there are detailed
time records relating to the performance of duties directly connected to
services provided. In other cases, the Study reports only best -guess
estimates concerning the allocation of time devoted to services.
This Study examines approximately 213 fees and charges. In a few cases,
there is insufficient information to make recommendations regarding some of
the services. There are several small, seldom -used fees for which we have
inadequate data on which to make recommendations. The Study finds that
many fees and charges need not be changed, some fees must be increased
to recover actual City costs, and some new fees should be implemented to
recover costs related to current services not paid for by fees or charges.

examined in light of actual costs and the use of escrow accounts for frequent
users of certain services. Each issue is addressed below:
• The Public Utilities, Port Authority and Ice Arena currently transfer or
directly budget $765,700 to the General Fund. It was found that this
amount does not cover associated costs and should be increased by
approximately $418,593.
• The City might consider establishing escrow accounts for frequent
users of some services, such as multiple requests for background
checks and those seeking property identification numbers and parcel
information.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is:
➢ To undertake a systematic review of the City's current user fee
system, excluding fees for Parks and Recreation programs, to
determine if current user fee amounts are sufficient to recapture the
actual cost of providing the related service;To identify other services
currently being performed that might generate new fees;
➢ To recommend a user fee system that establishes a direct
relationship between the payments made for services and the
services delivered.
Annual Reporting Requirements
Minnesota Statutes §166.685 requires that each municipality annually report
by April 1 all construction- and development- related fees collected by the
municipality from developers, builders, and subcontractors. The report must
include (1) the number and valuation of units for which fees were paid; (2)
the amount of building permit fees, plan review fees, administrative fees,
engineering fees, infrastructure fees, and other construction- and
development- related fees; and (3) the expenses associated with the
municipal activities for which fees were collected.
The form, as prescribed by the Department of Administration, provides for
the inclusion of all costs including salaries, benefits, transportation, office,
and other operating expenses, as well as such indirect costs as service
expenses fro other departments for building, utilities, finance, personnel,
MIS, planning and engineering.
The information derived from this study will provide adequate information for
completion of the annual reporting forms.

Methodology
Study Approach
The specific methodology which was employed in the study is outlined below.
Collection and Review of Records and Documents
The gathering of a number of City records and documents was necessary for
the completion of this study. The initial part of the study required the review
of the 2002 budget and actual revenues and expenditures for 2001 Also
collected and reviewed were all City ordinances and resolutions which related
to General Fund fees and charges. The organizational chart of the City,
along with detailed listings of all City employees and their budgeted salaries
for 2002, were obtained and reviewed. The collection of this information
allowed Springsted to create baseline information which is critical to the
detailed analysis required in the study.
Determination of Administrative Overhead and Interfund
Transfers
Underlying any fee study is the necessity to identify all costs which are
incurred when providing a service. Without this information, an accurate
determination of the appropriate level to set fees at becomes difficult; if not
impossible.
The obvious component of any service cost is the direct labor and supplies
committed to any activity. Not as obvious are the indirect costs incurred by
support activities that must be undertaken in order for the direct labor
personnel to successfully complete their mission. An analogy for this is the
military axiom that requires six to eight "behind the lines" personnel
(transportation, office staff, etc.) to support each combat participant. Just as
combat soldiers require support, it is important to realize that police officers,
firefighters, street maintenance personnel, and parks employees are
supported behind the scenes by administrative personnel that pay bills, issue
payroll checks, coordinate purchasing functions, and help to define policy
goals and direction. When determining the total cost of providing various
services to the community, these administrative overhead costs must be
included.
In order to determine such administrative overhead, extensive personal
interviews were conducted with City staff. These interviews were used to
determine the amount of personnel time devoted to specific City programs
and to determine the cost of that time as it relates to those functions.
Interviews were conducted with various staff members and took several
days.
I R SPRINGSTED Page 29
I P1 4 SPRINGSTED Page 30
City of Rosemount, Minnesota
Follow -up interviews and clarification discussions were conducted as
'
necessary over the course of the study. Interviews were conducted with the
fallowing City personnel:
• City Administrator
• Finance Director
• Human Resource Coordinator
• Department Heads of:
o Administration
o Finance
o Community Development/Building
'
o Engineering /Public Works
o Police
• Selected Staff:
o Administrative Assistants
o Secretaries
'
o Billing and Payroll Clerks
o Bookkeepers
During he interview process, it was determined that the Departments of
g P P
Administration, Finance, Community Development, Engineering /Public
Works, and Parks & Recreation perform special tasks for certain "self-
supporting" funds. Those funds were Public Utilities (Water, Sewer and
Storm Water), the Port Authority, and the Ice Arena. The information was
gathered in order to determine the appropriate transfer which should occur
from these funds to the General Fund. These transfers are typically
necessary in order to recognize the true costs of services provided to these
"self- supporting" funds and to reduce or eliminate taxpayer subsidies to
these funds.
Direct Cost Service Per Unit
of
A schedule of direct costs for services per unit was developed. Direct costs
were determined by multiplying the amount of time each employee devoted
to each service by the salary or wages of each employee who spends time
providing the service. The time assigned to each service was arrived at by
personally interviewing the department heads and appropriate individual
employees. Each department head was asked to define the specific
components of each service and then allocate the time each component took
among the previous department employees.
I P1 4 SPRINGSTED Page 30
City of Rosemount, Minnesota
When each department had been interviewed and the time for each service
allocated to the total cost of wages, then salaries and administrative
overhead were applied to each department budget according to the
allocations of time devoted to the service. A schedule was then created that
combined the costs of services and an average cost per service was found.
Based on a study of the available data, the following direct cost of service
formula was developed:
Labor Costs + Other Costs + Indirect Costs) /Service Volume = Cost per Unit
Comparison of Existing Fees to Actual per Unit Costs
After the costs of service per unit were determined, they were combined with
the existing fee schedule for the City of Rosemount. The total costs of
service per unit were then compared to the actual fee charged for the service
performed. If a comparison showed that the real costs were not being
recovered, a recommendation was made to increase the fee. The
recommendations attempt to prevent unintended services from being
subsidized by the general taxpayer.
Identify Potential Service Charges
During the personal interviews with department heads and other City staff,
discussion about new fees for services occurred. If new charges seemed
appropriate for unpaid service delivery, they were included in the Study's final
recommendations.

Findings
!� Based upon the application of the methodology described in the previous
section of this report, the following findings can be made:
Administrative Overhead Allocation
The interview process revealed the departments and tasks which can be
properly classified as overhead or support activities to direct line functions.
As mentioned earlier in this report, these are activities which are undertaken
in order to support employees that are providing direct services to the
citizens of Rosemount. Various departments, ranging from City Council to
Public Works, were identified as providing support services such as policy
direction, accounting and reporting, budgeting, and management information
services. Also included in the overhead calculation are the costs of providing
building maintenance, vehicle and mechanical maintenance and insurance.
Figures A -1 through A -1 0 in Exhibit A display the allocation of staff time in
each City department by function and the relative dollar amount of each
department's budget for those functions. This information was used to
determine categories which are considered for inclusion in the administrative
overhead allocation, and areas where service is being provided to other
funds by General Fund personnel_
Figure 1 displays the total amount of calculated administrative overhead for
the City of Rosemount and includes the General Fund and Self- Insurance
Trust Fund. The total dollar amount of this overhead is $1,469,185. In a
total combined 2002 General Fund and Self- Insurance Trust Fund budget of
approximately $6,703,085 million, this translates to an overhead rate of
28.15 %. In other words, for each dollar spent on providing a direct service,
another 28¢ is incurred providing support services for that task. When
determining the total cost of providing a service, this overhead must be
included with the identifiable direct costs. The figure of 28.15% appears to
be within the normal range of 25% to 30% for other cities which have
performed an analysis of this type.

Interfund Transfers
As described in the Methodology section of this study, the interview
process identified several departments that were providing direct services
to various City funds which, for the most part, should be self - supporting.
By using the direct costs identified with these funds and adding the
administrative overhead allocation previously calculated a legitimate
transfer from these funds to the General Fund can be determined.
Figure 2 details these findings.

As can be seen from Figure 2, an additional net transfer of approximately

in the Interfund transfer to this level will more appropriately identify costs
associated with each fund, as well as reduce the General Fund subsidy
currently involved.

Conclusions and Recommendations
The administrative overhead allocation, as determined by for the City of
Rosemount is 28.15 %. It is recommended that this allocation be added to
the identifiable direct cost of providing a service in order to reflect its true
costs and the appropriate level of reimbursement.
Net interfund transfers to the General fund do not fully compensate the
General Fund for services provided to other funds. This study discovered
that the net interfund transfer to the General fund could be increased in
excess of $418,000. It is recommended that the City study this issue and
develop a plan which will provide for the transfer of appropriate monies from
certain "self- supporting" funds to the General Fund.
If the recommendations are implemented, there would be a cost recovery of
approximately $545,186. This would then free the General Fund from
underwriting certain services and would shift the burden of these services to
the actual user. The final decision rests, of course, with the City Council,
who may choose to accept some or all of these recommendations.
The ultimate decision to adopt the recommendations should be based on an
evaluation of all the fees and charges and with consideration given to public
policy objectives that can be achieved by implementing new fees or
increasing existing fees. As a practical matter, the recommendations may be
phased in to the City's fee schedule rather than making the changes at one
time. The recommendations, when adopted, will begin to generate new
revenues immediately and will continue to enhance the City's non -tax
revenue each year.
The implementation of the interactive fee model will enable City staff to
update certain information and allow them to monitor the fees on an on-
going basis.
