Peterson, Sgt. Mac Connole, Press
1. James Duncan, Independent Consultant, reviewed the scope of a study he
will be completing for the City concerning traffic impact fees. Mr. Duncan
reviewed the philosophy behind traffic impact fees indicating that they are
part of a total network of fees. Mr. Duncan stated that the use of impact
fees is supported by case law throughout the country.
Mr. Duncan stated that most developers support the wise use of impact
fees because they can easily identify the benefits they will derive. Cities
like impact fees because they are a useful regulatory tool in growth
management programs. He indicated that impact fees can be designed to promote
growth in particular areas and to discourage growth in others.
Mr. Duncan indicated that the key to success is an easily demonstrated
burden to benefit ratio. He stated that a link between impact created and
services needed as well as between fees collected and services received must
be easily demonstrable.
Council Member Bittner asked how the criteria for the impact fees are
established. Mr. Duncan indicated that there are various criteria based upon
the specific needs of any given area.
Mr. Harpst indicated that the completed study will be ready for Council
review in three months.
2. Joe Anderson, Director of Public Works, presented his proposed Fiscal
Year 1989-90 budget to the City Council. Mr. Anderson indicated that most of
his divisions had reduced their service levels in order to maintain a no
growth budget. He indicated that the only service level increase is in the
sidewalk replacement program which will be administered by the Sidewalk and
Sanitation Division.
Mr. Anderson indicated that the major service level decreases are in
the elimination of the neighborhood trash pickup and the elimination of one
engineering team.
Cam Caldwell, Council Budget Analyst, briefed the Council on his review
of the Public Works budget request. Mr. Caldwell indicated that in past years
the Public Works Department had told the Council that elimination of the
annual trash pickup would be difficult because the employees used for the
annual pickup are used in the winter time for snow removal. Mr. Caldwell
indicated that the problem is addressed by using the five new employees for
the sidewalk program to provide snow removal in the winter time.
Council. Member Bittner asked if the backlog on the installation of new
mid-block street lights would grow in the next fiscal year. Mr. Harpst
stated that the proposed budget includes funding for 25 new lights to catch up
with current requests, and an additional 25 new lights to address requests in
the next fiscal. year.
The City Council conducted a straw poll on staff recommendations
pertaining to the Public Works budget. The Council voted 6-0 in favor of
staff recommendation number one: That the Council reduce the travel and
training budget from $18,492 to $15,383 as the increase was simply an
accounting error. The Council voted 6-0 in favor of recommendation number
two: That Council staff look for $277,000 in General fund cost savings or new
revenues in order to finance the Neighborhood Cleanup Program. The Council
vote 4-2 against recommendation number three: That staff obtain additional
specific information about the decision to cut an engineering project team.
The Council. voted 6-0 in favor of recommendation number four that the Council
defer consideration of the charge to refuse collection for data processing
until. the Peat Marwick enterprise fund study has been reviewed. The Council
voted 6-0 in favor of a legislative intent suggested by Council Member.
Hardman: That staff investigate the possibility of cost savings being derived
from the privitization of the neighborhood cleanup.
3. Lee King, Council. Budget Analyst/Auditor, reviewed the proposed Capital.
Improvement Program budget for the City Council. Mr. King indicated that
funding for programs besides the bond payment on the City & County Building
and funding for the Sunnyside Recreation Center had decreased by 25% for
Fiscal Year 1989-90. Mr. King reviewed changes in the program since the last
time the City Council was briefed on the CIP.
Mr. King indicated that the only major change is the acceleration of
the California Avenue extension project. Because the property owners
approached the City about extending the road from Pioneer Road to 3400 West,
the City moved forward on the project before it was scheduled to begin.
Council Member Bittner suggested that the Council consider a legislative
intent expressing their desire to extend California Avenue to the West Valley
Highway in Fiscal Year. 1990-91.
Max Peterson, City Engineer, indicated that the project could only go
through if the property owners agreed, and to date they had not been willing
to pay for the extension.
Council Member Hardman asked about the status of fund raising for the
Sunnyside Recreation Center. Scott Bond, Director of Policy and Budget,
indicated that the private corporation has received a commitment from the
Steiner Corporation for a total of $500,000 which will be received in $100,000
annual payments. The School Board had agreed to fund the Recreation Center at
a total of $700,000, but has indicated their interest in financing the
donation over the long-term and would like the City to participate in long-
term financing. Mr. Bond indicated that financing for the City and the School
Board portions of the funding solves the problem of up-front construction
money which the citizens group was having trouble coming up with. Mr.. Bond
stated that the bonding will be approximately $1.8 with a 10 year life. The
City's interest payments would be in proportion to the City's share of the
borrowed amount.
Council Member Kirk stated that the original plan for the project was
to use all cash donations, but that did not turn out to be realistic because
of financial constraints in the City, for the School Board, and for the
c i.t i zens group.
The City Council voted 6-0 in favor of the staff recommendation to
approve the Capital Improvement Program for 1989-90. Council Member Hardman
asked when the Council would receive the next report on the finances of the
City & County Building. Linda Hamilton, Director of Finance, stated that the
Council should receive the quarterly report within the next two i s.

Public Works Budget Analysis
Council Staff Report
The Public Works Department budget for FY 89-90 is $16,546,429. This total is
2.5% lower than the budget approved last year. The budget presentation for FY
89-90 does not include the portion of the Street Lighting electricity budget
for Special Improvement Districts which is shown in the FY 88-89 budget
document. The General Fund continues to pay for 75% of the cost of
electricity for these lighting districts, but the expenditure is reflected in
the Non-Departmental budget rather than the Public Works budget.
Service Level Changes
The major change in the proposed budget is the elimination of the Neighborhood
Cleanup Program. As noted in the department budget narrative which
accompanies this report, the total FY 88-89 budget for this program is
$474, 130. The proposed budget reflects a $277,000 cost savings for the
General Fund.
The difference between the current year budget and the proposed savings is
made up by the transfer of a portion of the costs to other Public Works cost
centers, lower fleet costs, and the transfer of six employees to the Street
Maintenance budget. The cost of restoring this program is the $277,000
figure.
Council reviewed the proposed Concrete Replacement Program at the department
policy meeting which was held earlier this year. The $100,000 set aside in
the CIP budget and $34,000 currently allocated for raising manholes will pay
for the personnel and equipment costs of this program. Materials will be paid
for by the property owner as their share of the cost of this program.
The proposed budget calls for an additional $47,924 as a service level
increase for weed abatement on public property. The three seasonal staff from
this program and the five full-time staff hired for the Concrete Replacement
Program will meet the manpower needs for the snow fighting program which would
be lost by eliminating ten Neighborhood Cleanup part-time staff.
Street Lighting Utility costs are projected to increase due to the
Administration's decision not to turn off mid-block street lights on major
streets. Last year about $82,000 was proposed to be cut from the budget, but
U P & L accelerated a credit for conversion of sodium vapor lights so that the
City would not have to turn off mid-block lights.
An engineering project team consisting of one engineer and three technicians
has been cut from the Engineering Division. A professional service contract
employee was also eliminated and overtime and seasonal dollars were cut . The
impact on service level means that the City will have to contract out
engineering costs for capital improvements, passing those costs through to the
CIP Fund, rather than performing the work with City staff. The number of
construction projects and the increase in the dollar volume of projects could
place a strain on the existing staff or require that projects be delayed. The
-2-
position of the Administration is that there is less work to be done in the
General Fund.
Personnel Changes
The total number of Public Works employees in the proposed budget is 268.63
FTE's, or 5.2% fewer employees than the 88-89 adopted budget. Three
engineering technicians, a professional engineer, and a traffic maintenance
position have been eliminated from the budget. Two part-time traffic
technician positions were converted to full-time and five permanent positions
are proposed as part of the change in the concrete replacement program. Three
seasonal positions have been added to administer the Weed Control Program.
There are 17.8 fewer FTE's in seasonal part-time positions, including ten
fewer FTE's in the Neighborhood Cleanup Program.
•
There have been numerous job reclassifications in addition to the part-time
positions that have been converted to full-time status. Positions are also
difficult to track because there are also four different career ladder paths
for department personnel. The staffing document is _made more difficult to
track because there had been a change made in the actual job titles of a
couple of positions in FY 88-89. The correct titles will be provided in the
final budget document .
Overall, there are 14.8 fewer FTE's in the proposed budget compared to the FY
88-89 budget. In total, the Personal Services budget is .8% higher in the
proposed budget than the budget approved by the Council for the current year.
Budget Issues
I have reviewed the Travel and Training budget with Brad Stewart. The adopted
budget for FY 88-89 was $15,383. The Administration made an inadvertent error
in approving the proposed budget total of $18,492. I have reviewed the
proposed travel and training expenditures and felt that they were reasonable.
However, the Administration's guideline is to keep travel and training costs
at the current year budget level.
Council staff have reviewed Interfund Charges. Risk Management costs have
increased 39. 1%. This reflects increased health insurance premiums and
Worker's Compensation expense. In addition, it reflects a change in the
method in which health care premiums are charged for employees who are
enrolled in HMO health care programs, which had not been budgeted through the
General Fund departments in the past.
Contractual Services are down 37.6%. Data Processing is up 17.3%. One of
the reasons for this increase is a charge to the department for a special
Department of Transportation data processing project. Council is also aware
that the Data Processing charge for Refuse Collection increased- 24%, or
$26,700 this year. I recommended that Council reduce the amount of the Refuse
Collection Fund by $26 ,700 for IMS services, and increase the Public Utilities
Fund by that same amount . The net impact of that action would be to reduce
the Public Utilities Fund capital improvement program for FY 89-90. Council
seemed reluctant to reduce the Public Utilities capital improvement program on
the night that this issue was considered and wanted to wait until they
received the Peat Marwick enterprise fund study.
-3-
The Utilities line item reflects 1987-88 usage . Fleet Maintenance is down 5.4%
or $122,431 . This reduction is due to the reduction in the number of
vehicles due to eliminating the Neighborhood Cleanup Program and lower fleet
rates city-wide. In total Charges and Services for Public Works are 1 . 3% less
than last year.
Capital Outlay expenditures for FY 89-90 are 68.5% of the current year budget.
This item includes costs for building repairs, heating and ventilation
improvements, a vault filing system for engineering, and computer expenses.
Policy Issues
The major policy decision facing the Council in the Public Works budget is the
decision to eliminate the Neighborhood Cleanup Program. Council Members
expressed unanimous support for retaining this program when the alternatives
were evaluated at the department policy meeting earlier this year. The
approximate dollar cost required to retain this program is $277,000.
Council may also wish to carefully evaluate the decision to eliminate an
engineering project team. Historically, the City has not recognized a net
cost savings by contracting out engineering services for City projects. The
cost of the contracted services is added to the project and the total dollars
available for capital improvements is reduced by the cost of the contract
engineering. Council may wish to request that the staff obtain additional
specific information about this issue to help the Council make this decision.
In the alternative , Council may determine that the reduction of Engineering
staff proposed by the Mayor is a cost effective decision.
The $26,700 reduction in the Data Processing charge has the impact of reducing
the General Fund by that same amount while reducing the amount available to
the Public Utilities capital improvement program. Council indicated a desire
to defer this decision until after the Peat Marwick enterprise study has been
reviewed.
Staff Recommendations
1 ) Reduce the Travel & Training budget from $18,492 to $15,383,
consistent with the approved total for the current fiscal year.
2) Request Council staff to look for $277,000 in General Fund cost
savings or new revenues in order to finance the Neighborhood
Cleanup Program.
3) Request Council staff to obtain additional specific information
about the decision to cut an engineering project team.
4) Defer consideration of the charge to Refuse Collection for Data
Processing until the Peat Marwick enterprise fund study has been
reviewed.
-4-
NEIGHBORHOOD CLEAN UP
The neighborhood clean up program will be eliminated July 1, 1989. The total FY
' 88-' 89 budget is $474,130. We are giving back $277,586 to the general fund.
The reason for the difference is:
$18,000 will be transferred to our support services cost center for dump
fees to support other programs (ex: weed abatement) .
In keeping with the spirit of the union contract, we are laying off all ten
seasonal employees in this program and transferring the six permanent
employees to street maintenance programs ($161,376) . This transfer will
offset the part-time employee cuts given up in street maintenance programs.
The remaining difference is due to a reduction in fleet management costs.
Ten dump trucks, one loader, and one pickup will be given back to Fleet
Management.
The impact of cutting the neighborhood clean up program means residents will
have to dispose of yard debris through their weekly garbage collection and haul
bulky trash items to the landfill themselves. The City may experience an
increase in requests for a second green container. With the turning in of the
trucks and loader, there may be a slight decrease in response time in the area
of snow removal . The street division will continue to be cost effective and
innovative, working to get the biggest bang for the remaining buck!
STREET LIGHTING UTILITY COSTS
Our street lighting utility budget is $786,891 and is based on project costs for
next year. All other utility costs in the Public Works budget were based on FY
'87-'88 actuals. However, street lighting was based on calculated costs to
operate all street lights at the current power rate. Last year one of our
budget cuts was to turn off mid-block street lights on major streets, a savings
of $80,109 to the current fiscal year budget. UP&L accelerated a credit for
sodium vapor conversions. This one time savings kept the lights on for this
fiscal year.
ENGINEERING DIVISION CUTS
In the Engineering Division, we cut a engineering project team, one engineer and
three engineering technicians; however, we added an associate project manager
position to help carry the work load. This engineering associate will be a "one
person" project team. A professional service contract employee position was
eliminated, and all the hourly and seasonal employees. In addition, all the
overtime dollars were cut.
The impact on the service level provided by engineering means contract employees
will have to be hired on some projects and the cost passed onto the project. In
addition, some projects will have to wait for available staff. Engineering will
still maintain high standards on all city projects. This is a real challenge
for staff because these cuts come at a time when our work load is up five
million dollars over last year.
Total cut in engineering is $205,687.
NEW CONCRETE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
Rather than the city requiring property owners to pay 50% through a contract, we
propose the property owner pay only the actual cost of materials used. The city
would pay all labor costs and city crews would do the work.
this would not require changes in the existing funding mechanism as the funds
would come from the $100,000 set aside in the CIP budget for 50/50 contract work
and from $34,000 presently allocated for raising manholes.
From the $134,000 five additional people would be hired with approximately
$9,000 leftover to cover the operating budget. The materials would be covered
by the property. owner share. There will be no additional expense for equipment
as existing equipment will be provided by Fleet Maintenance and Street Division
assets.
This proposal does not require additional funding from the general fund. It
will require the authorization to use existing funding in a different manner,
and an increase to our staffing document.
WEED CONTROL PROGRAM
$47,294 has been included as a service level increase for weed abatement on
public property. This program will operate six months per year. A seasonal
crew supervisor, vehicle operator, and general maintenance worker will be hired.
•
STAFFING DOCUMENT CHANGES
It is very difficult to describe briefly changes in our staffing document. This
is due to several factors:
1. We have several career ladder paths.
General maintenance workers
Engineering technicians including surveyors
Entry level engineers
Professional level engineers
Office technicians
Employees climb the rungs of the ladder as they better themselves.
2. We also had several reclassifications. -
3. A number of employees were re-labeled in an effort to purify and update the
staffing document.
4. Perhaps of the greatest interest are the "real " changes.
A. An engineering project team was eliminated, one professional engineer
(320 level ) , and three technicians (224 level ) . To reduce the impact of
this cut, a new 317 level engineer associate position will be created to
be a "one person" project team.
B. A traffic technician II (219 level ) has been eliminated.
C. Five permanent positions will be added to form the new concrete crew.
We are adding a field supervisor (low 300 level ) , and four general
maintenance workers (118 level ) .
D. You' ll also find we are down 17.80 FTE's in seasonal , part-time
positions.
E. A reorganization in the Transportation Division resulted in converting
two part-time FTE' s to permanent positions.
F. We have also eliminated our overtime budget for engineering ($39,052) .
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
1989-90 BUDGET
Prepared by Lee King
MATERIAL CHANGES IN BUDGET TOTAL
Capital Improvement budgets are funded by a variety of funding sources.
These sources include an appropriation from the General Fund which for this
year is $4,980,000. Other funding sources include Community Development Block
Grant; other Federal , State and County grants; Property owners; and Other
sources such as private foundations (Sunnyside Recreation Center) .
The total Capital Improvements Program for 1989-90 for Non-Enterprise
Funds is $13,711 ,285. Compared to last year's total of $12,934,490, this is
an apparent increase of 6%. However, there are two major expenditures that
show in this year's budget that were not reflected in 1988-89. They are
$3,366,500 for the City & County Building and $1,950,000 for the Sunnyside
Recreation Center. With these two expenditures, the C'IP for 1989-90 is
actually 25% less than the current budget year.
Major increases are in the California Ave SID, 400-500 South Connector,
Fire Station #10 Construction, and Section 108 Loan Interest Payback.
Specific descriptions of each project are listed in the enclosed Capital
Improvement Program.
The Capital Improvement Budgets for the Airport, Golf, and Water & Sewer
were reviewed as part of the respective Enterprise Fund Budgets. Specific
projects for these funds are listed on pages 43-44 of the Mayor's Recommended
Operating & Capital Budget.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the 1989-90 Capital Improvement Program budget for Non-
Enterprise Funds in the amount of $13,711,285.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS
1989-90 ANNUAL BUDGET
STREET IMPROVEMENTS
1 ) SIDEWALK, CURB & GUTTER: SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
Includes $105,000 in General Fund and $105, 000 in property owner
assessments for partial replacement of deteriorated existing
sidewalk, curb and gutter in the Rose Park area north of 600 No. , I-
15 to Redwood Rd. This program is scheduled on a yearly basis to
address needs in non-CDBG eligible areas .
2) LOCAL STREETS: SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
These districts are set up to construct new curb, gutter, sidewalk,
and drainage improvements and replace existing streets in designated
areas . The property owner pays for approximately half the cost of
the improvements . The next district scheduled will coordinate with
the 900 West widening project recently completed. The improvements
to be done include the following streets: 1045 W. , 1700 - 2100 So. ;
and Jewell, Colmar and Margaret Aves . , 900 - 1045 W.
3 ) 400 - 500 SOUTH CONNECTOR, REDWOOD RD. TO SURPLUS CANAL-PHASE I
This amount is budgeted from Class C funds to be used in conjunction
with 1990-91 Class C funds to construct a roadway connection between
4th and 5th South. Phase I includes installation of a storm drain
to be coordinated with a sanitary sewer being put in by Public
Utilities.
4) CALIFORNIA AVENUE: SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT - PIONEER TO
3400 WEST
To extend this street through the industrial area on the westside to
facilitate new businesses and economic development. New
construction will include four lanes for traffic, curb, gutter, and
sidewalk. This is an important first step in connecting this major
arterial with the West Valley Highway. The majority of the costs
are being paid through adjacent property owner participation.
5) CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (CBD) BEAUTIFICATION
Street improvements and amenities such as brick pavers, trees, and
street furniture funded jointly by the Redevelopment Agency and
property owners in the Central Business District. This project will
be done at the following locations: State Street, South Temple to
200 South and South Temple, Main Street to West Temple.
6 ) TRAFFIC SYSTEM MANAGEMENT (TSM) IMPROVEMENTS
Street improvements including upgrading intersections, left and
right turn lanes, guard rails, school turn-outs, etc.
This years projects include adding a right turn lane on 700 East at
2700 South, installing permanent traffic counting stations and
detectors to help run the computerized signal system, and initial
construction for a traffic circle at 2nd Ave. and Sigsbee.
7 ) STREET LIGHTING REPLACEMENT AND MAINTENANCE FUND
The recent purchase of Salt Lake's street lighting system from UP&L
resulted in an annual savings . Part of this savings of
approximately $1, 000, 000 per year will be kept in the CIP budget
which can accrue toward eventual repairs and replacement not covered
by the City' s agreement .
DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS
1) MAIN STREET STORM DRAIN - SOUTH TEMPLE TO 300 SOUTH
Construction of a storm drain line on Main St. to be funded by the
Redevelopment Agency. This will eliminate existing problems caused
by the continuous flow of water from adjacent basement drains into
the curb and gutter.
2) STATE STREET STORM DRAIN - 100 SOUTH TO 400 SOUTH
Construction of a major storm drain on State St. to be funded by the
Redevelopment Agency. This will be accomplished prior to the
construction of the State Street Beautification project and will
eliminate the existing storm drain problems in the area.
PARKS AND PUBLIC FACILITIES
1 ) CITY-COUNTY BUILDING DEBT SERVICE
As City departments move back into the renovated City-County
Building a thirty year loan is assumed by the City to pay for the
improvements . This amount represents the amount of debt service on
the bond used to rehabilitate and furnish the City-County Building.
The County will pay for part of this debt service through leasing
the first floor of the building.
2) MISCELLANEOUS FACILITIES REPAIRS
To make needed improvements including interior repairs resulting
from leaking roofs and replacement of deteriorating asphalt at
various fire stations, the cooling tower that serves the City-County
complex on 200 E. , the roof over the office wing at the Animal
