CITY OF SAN RAFAEL CONTRACTOR MGT of America Consulting, LLC (!Y--. : J SCK Z, Ci Man er J�B�ur ATTEST: LINDSAY LARA, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: ROBERT F. EPSTEINCity A mey Title: Executive Vice President [If Contractor is a corporation, add signature of second corporate officer] Name: A.Trey Traviesa Title: Chairman and CEO EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES USER FEE STUDY WORK PLAN This section of the proposal identifies MGT understanding of the City's requirements for preparation of the City's user fee study. We will work with City staff to build a solid foundation to design a fee schedule that reflects the way that the City wishes to manage its cost recovery program. The following is a detailed work plan that identifies the tasks necessary to complete the study. TASK 1.0: CONDUCT INTRODUCTORY MEETINGS WITH RELEVANT PERSONNEL Meet with City personnel who have responsibility or a high interest in the user fee study. This meeting will refine the specific objectives, requirements, measurements, and schedule of the user fee study, and will establish the overall objectives of the study. We consider this meeting vital to successful project results including acceptance by department directors and officials as well as the City's elected officials. TASK 2.0: COMPARISON SURVEY To determine practices by surrounding cities that charge for similar services, and to augment MGT's existing knowledge of industry standards and best practices, MGT will conduct a survey based on a limited number of common fees and up to five comparison agencies. Our team will assist the City to select the best cities to use for comparison purposes and help design the comparison study to help the City to develop new fees and charges, as well as generally understand relative fee recovery levels. MGT will also provide the City with a list of similar cities who have recently had fee studies done, so the comparison numbers are relevant. Surveys and comparisons that look solely at per fee amounts are of limited value. MGT's comparison surveys provide additional demographic and structural information that provides perspectives required to make informed fee level recommendations. This level of analysis isn't necessary for all departments and all fees, but is very useful for complex areas, such as building. TASK 3.0: COLLECT BASIC FINANCIAL DATA MGT will collect and compile financial data such as expenditure statements, budgets, and salary reports. We will work with City personnel to develop and gather the needed data in the most efficient way possible. This data will provide the foundation for developing the total costs, direct and indirect, associated with each user fee service identified in Tasks 4 and 5. TASK 4.0: CATALOG ALL EXISTING USER FEE ACTIVITIES MGT will create an inventory of all the user fee services provided by the City. TASK 5.0: IDENTIFY POTENTIAL NEW USER FEE SERVICES Using our experience in other jurisdictions and our extensive data base of fees, we will create an inventory of potential new user fee services that are currently provided by the City but have no corresponding current revenue. 10 TASK 6.0: ISSUE AN INVENTORY MEMORANDUM Based on the outcomes from Tasks 4 and 5, MGT will write and issue a memorandum documenting all user fees within selected departments within the City. This inventory will establish the scope of the services to be included in the cost analysis. TASK 7.0: DEVELOP DATA GATHERING WORKBOOKS Using the financial and staffing information and user fee inventory collected in earlier tasks, MGT will develop data gathering workbooks to be used when interviewing city personnel. MGT will pre -populate our Excel -based user fee model with staffing and budget information, user fee services, and other support or non -fee related functions. These workbooks are extremely helpful in facilitating discussion about how user fee services are provided and will also provide the City with a comprehensive view of resource allocation and utilization for each department included in the study. TASK 8.0: INTERVIEW DEPARTMENTS, DIVISIONS, OR UNITS PROVIDING USER FEE SERVICES MGT will interview City personnel providing the user fee services identified in Tasks 4 and 5. In these interviews, we will determine the following information related to the user fee services provided: • A unit of measurement for each user fee service provided. • The personnel providing each user fee service. • The amount of time spent to provide one unit of a user fee service. • The amount of time spent per year providing all user fee services. TASK 9.0: PREPARE DRAFT USER FEE SCHEDULES MGT will enter data into the firm's user fee calculation model, including any indirect costs that are not captured by the City's cost allocation plan. We will then calculate the full direct costs and indirect costs of each existing and potential new user fee service. The user fee schedules created in this task are extremely detailed. Every cost component of the user fee service is identified and supported by detailed, yet clearly and concisely presented calculations. MGT will identify and compare services cost with existing recovery levels. Up to three versions of the draft schedules are included in this scope. TASK 10.0: CONDUCT INTERNAL REVIEW OF THE DRAFT FEE SCHEDULES MGT will undertake an internal review process to increase the precision of the user fee schedules. This review includes the following steps: • A formal review by the project director of the study's assumptions and output. Compare user fee calculations to prior studies, if available. Variances are identified, researched, understood, and explained to relevant individuals. The comparison and variance analysis between years, which is available to City personnel, raises the accuracy of project results. A final review of the user fee model by a project quality assurance consultant. This experienced consultant, although not directly involved in the project, has a fresher perspective of the project than does the lead and project consultants. This perspective incorporates knowledge from dozens of similar projects. TASK 11.0: PRESENT INITIAL CALCULATIONS TO DEPARTMENTS AND STAKEHOLDERS MGT will review the initial user fee calculations with personnel from each department, division, section, or unit; make changes as required. Although the user fee schedules are detailed, our consultants will spend as much time as requested with city personnel to fully explain the cost components of each user fee service. Our experience in conducting hundreds of these types of reviews helps facilitate this step. TASK 12.0: RECALCULATE AND REVIEW USER FEE SCHEDULES Recalculate data as required within the agreed upon review window. To keep the bid as reasonable as possible, we have calculated the number of hours to include two drafts of the user fee schedules and one final version. If the City requires additional drafts, we will be happy to provide them on a time and expenses basis. TASK 13.0: DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FEE ADJUSTMENTS MGT will work with City personnel and stakeholders to review and apply existing policies regarding cost recovery. San Rafael staff and Council spent considerable effort to establish appropriate cost -recovery percentage targets for each fee area during the 2011 study. MGT will work with staff and Council to update these policies for the current environment. Recommendations for modifications to the City's policies for cost recovery of user fee services will also be considered. City officials will consider many factors when deciding to adopt or modify a user fee policy. These factors could include: • All MGT recommendations will comply with State limitations. • A desired policy to establish user fees at a level that permits lower income groups to participate in services that they might not otherwise be able to afford. • A consideration of community -wide benefit versus specific benefit. • Public -sector agencies' monopoly on providing certain services within its boundaries, such as development -related services. • Pricing services that encourage or discourage certain behaviors. • The cost of establishing a cost recovery system for some services may outweigh the benefits derived for certain services. • For recreation or community services where full cost recovery is unrealistic, develop a policy and recommendations based on best practices and industry standards in the City's region. This is encouraged under Proposition 26. • best practices for collection of fees adopted by the City, which may include estimation and collection of deposits and tracking costs for large development projects. We bring to this project experience from many similar projects that will help City officials understand the relevant factors involved and integrate the factors involved in determining City policies. 12 TASK 14.0: PREPARE FINAL USER FEE SCHEDULES MGT will prepare final user fee study summary schedules displaying costs and revenues of each existing and potential user fee service. The user fee summary schedules will include the following information: • Master Fee Schedule • A comprehensive list of all user fees by department • Current fees charged • The full cost of providing each user fee activity • The subsidy (or over -recovery) of each fee • Recommended adjustments to each fee • A summary user fee cost analysis for each fee (shown here). This summary page is a terrific way to see the pertinent elements of cost for every fee charged by the City without having to dig through a large final user fee report. Citizens and city staff members who work with them really appreciate these individual summaries. TASK 15.0: PRESENT RESULTS TO OUTREACH GROUP AND CITY OFFICIALS MGT will present, or assist in presenting, the final user fee study results to outreach groups (e.g. Building Industry Association, chamber of commerce) and city officials. These presentations will include a Report of Findings, summarized information on a fee -by -fee basis and all detail reports. TASK 16.0: PROVIDE COPIES OF DOCUMENTS AND MATERIALS Up to ten bound copies and one unbound copy of the final report, as well as an electronic of version will be provided to the City (PDF). TASK 17.0: PROVIDE MODEL AND TRAINING Provide the final copies of the customized Excel -based cost of service models for future use by the City as requested. TASK 18.0: PROVIDE GUIDANCE AND ASSISTANCE A hallmark of our client -centered approach is our desire to provide guidance, and assistance to all appropriate city officials and personnel on reading, understanding and applying the results of the user fee study, and the associated schedules and calculations. 13 EXHIBIT B: FEES A.

This invoiced amount covers MGT efforts on strategy sessions, preliminary on-site meetings, project planning and items not tied to fixed fee tasks outlined in the proposal. The amount due per month will then be based on the remaining amount of the fixed fee amount divided by the anticipated number of months to complete the project. 14 RAFq�` 1 �o /Ty VV1TH CONTRACT ROUTING FORM INSTRUCTIONS: Use this cover sheet to circulate all contracts for review and approval in the order shown below.
