SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION
General Fund Financial Stability and Funding Alternatives
GENERAL DIRECTION SOUGHT AND SPECIFIC QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED
1. What methods does Council wish to consider for closing the General Fund gap in the 2007
budget?
a. Identify further expenditure and service reductions in the General Fund;
b. Fund the gap with new revenues;
C. A combination of new revenues and service reductions; or
d. Fund the gap and restore service reductions or fund service enhancements with new
revenues
2. If options requiring voter approval are to be pursued,which contingency(ies)does Council
wish to consider implementing in the event voter approval is not secured?
BACKGROUND
The 2007 Budget was developed with the assumption that $2.6 million of General Fund revenue
would be raised through the implementation of a Transportation Maintenance Fee (TMF).
Councilmembers have asked staff to provide additional alternatives for balancing the 2007 General
Fund budget. The purpose of this work session is to review funding alternatives, including
implementation of a TMF. In a time when sales and use tax revenue projections are relatively flat
and Council and staff are concerned with creating a healthy economic base, a variety of funding
alternatives, in addition to the TMF, are offered for consideration. (See Summary Table 1 and
Attachment 1)
This issue is of critical importance to both Council and staff. By addressing issues related to the
2007 Budget early in the year, staff has ample time to consider several very credible options.
Council will also be able to build upon the 2006-2007 Budget process by using the tools that have
been developed using Budgeting for Outcomes (BFO) techniques. With a well developed
understanding of the options available to Council,this discussion should help define the alternatives
which should be pursued over the coming months.
The opportunity to evaluate funding alternatives is particularly challenging because $5 million in
cuts were made to the budget through the BFO process. A number of unmet needs exist in the 2006
-2007 Budget,including such items as Library funding,Police and Fire funding,and Transportation
Services capital and operations funding.

General Fund Balance Alternatives
Two general alternatives must be considered in balancing the 2007 General Fund budget: further
reductions in expenses and services and additional revenue sources. During the 2006-2007
Budgeting for Outcomes process, over $5 million in expenditure and service reductions were
implemented. Though additional service reductions can be identified through the BFO process and
the various "drilling platforms," an exploration of revenue enhancements should be considered at
the same time. (See Attachment 2)
Potential new or increased revenue sources fall into two general categories: those which require
voter approval under TABOR regulations (taxes) and those which may be set with City Council or
City Manager approval (fees).
Options requiring voter approval—November 7, 2006 Election
Several funding options that may be considered by Council would require voter approval at the
November 7,2006 General Election. These options require voter approval because they are defined
as"tax increases"under TABOR regulations. The only 2006 election at which the City could seek
voter approval is on November 7, 2006. In addition, the Colorado Library Law requires that an
election to establish a Library District be conducted in November.
Several of the tax increase options have the potential to increase City resources by more than the
$2.6 million needed to balance the 2007 budget. Though the first$2.6 million of any new revenue
would be used to close the funding gap in the 2007 budget, additional funds could be used to
reinstate some of the cuts made in the 2006 budget or add/enhance services that Council desires to
improve or expand.
The deadline for resolving this issue is short. Revenue sources must be clearly identified by early
fall in order to be allocated through the 2007 Exceptions Budget Process. In addition,the language
of any ballot measure which would require voter approval at the November 2006 election must be
finalized at the August 15, 2006 Council meeting,in order to meet the statutory deadline to certify
ballot content to Larimer County. A clearly developed contingency plan for balancing the General
Fund will need to be developed in the event that voters defeat the measure.
Government Revenues: Fees vs. Taxes
Concern has been raised in the community about the use of a TMF or other fees, with some people
suggesting that the fee is actually a tax. The proposed TMF is considered to be a"Special Service
Fee" under Colorado state law. State law gives the City the right to charge a service fee for the
maintenance of roads, so long as the costs are fairly shared by all users. Though voters often do not
distinguish between fees and taxes,policy makers should be aware of several key differences.
Tax Definition:
General taxes include both ad valorem taxes and excise taxes. An ad valorem tax is a tax
on real or personal property and is based on the value of the property. The term"excise tax"
has come to mean practically any tax that is not an ad valorem tax. An excise tax is imposed
February 14, 2006 Page 3
on the performance of an act,the engaging in an occupation,or the enjoyment of a privilege.
The payment of the excise tax is a condition of the act,event,or occurrence on which the tax
is based. Examples include occupation taxes, lodging taxes, admissions taxes, etc.
General taxes usually are raised for the purpose of funding the general cost of government,
although in some special situations a general tax may be "dedicated" by language in the
ordinance and/or ballot measure that authorizes the tax. (Example: Usually, a sales tax can
be used for any government purpose, but the Building on Basics sales tax is earmarked for
specific projects that were listed in the ballot when the tax was approved.) General taxes
always require a vote of the people to be enacted or changed.
Fee Defmition:
A fee is a charge imposed on persons or property for the purpose of defraying the cost of
providing a particular governmental service or public facility. Proceeds from fees cannot
be used to fund general government activities. Fees come in several forms, such as special
service fees (like the proposed Transportation Maintenance Fee and the former
Transportation Utility Fee,)impact fees(such as the Street Oversizing Fee and the proposed
Street Oversizing Capital Expansion Fee,) or user fees (Lincoln Center or EPIC charges.)
Fees must not exceed the cost incurred by the local government in providing the service or
facility. Fees should also be fairly apportioned among the fee payers, although
"mathematical exactitude"is not required in formulating fees. Finally, the proceeds of the
fee must be segregated and earmarked for the particular purpose for which the fee is
imposed, and spent for that purpose. Fees may be imposed and adjusted by ordinance,
without a vote of the electorate.
Taxes and Fees Compared:
A key difference between a fee,such as the TMF, and a tax is that the users of the streets pay
amounts pronortionate to the amount they use the service. Residential users pay less than
commercial users because each household generates a few trips per day, while a business
generates many more. More trips cause more wear and tear on the roads, so the cost of
maintaining the road can be tied to the level of use.
A tax does not assume that any individual taxpayer or business uses the services that are
being taxed. A tax for schools is levied on all residents,regardless of whether they use the
public schools or not. There is no relationship between the user and the amount or
application of the tax.
Under Colorado law, a City tax change must be approved by the voters,while a fee change
can be approved by the City Council or City Manager.

Option 1: Expenditure and Service Reductions
1
In addition to considering raising additional revenue from any of a variety of sources,
Council should also consider the option of making an additional $2.6 million in funding
and service reductions for 2007. In considering this option, Council should review the
funding priorities established through the Budgeting for Outcomes process during the
2006-2007 Budget process.
The "Drilling Platforms" for each of the seven results areas identified service priorities
and funding requirements. These lists of funding priorities should be used in identifying
the programs which could be reduced or eliminated to yield at least $2.6 million in
expenditure reductions.
The final Drilling Platforms for 2007 are included as Attachment 2.

How does it Work?
A Library District is a political subdivision of the state governed by a Board of Trustees
that operates libraries within a region and is supported by property taxes. A Library
District which includes unincorporated areas of the County may be established by
• legislative action of the City and County together or by a petition(signed by 100 or more
voters) submitted to County Commissioners and passed by the voters. Taxes for a District
require approval of a majority of voters residing within its boundaries at a November
election. The boundaries of the District could be the same as the Poudre School District
boundaries. This would include approximately 200,000 residents or 56,000 households.
The cost to provide the current level of services, reinstate services that have been cut and
to operate a full service Southeast Branch would be about$5,600,000.
A mill rate of 2.91 mills could be sought from voters in the District. This amount would
yield approximately $5.6 million per year from the entire district. $3.5 million of current
General Fund resources used to support the Library would thus become available for
other uses. The Library District would yield enough revenue to cover current operating
expenses plus additional revenue that could be used to improve services and provide for
the operation of a future Southeast Branch Library.
Who pays?
Property owners (residential and commercial)throughout the District would see increased
property taxes. Allocating the cost of library services to residents both inside and outside
the City limits would more accurately apportion costs to the actual users of Library
services. About 15%of Fort Collins Public Library cardholders live outside of Fort
Collins but use City libraries without cost. In the past, the City assumed that non-
residents provided some support for library services by paying sales taxes for purchases
• in the City. However, non-residents do not pay City sales tax on automobiles or on

purchases delivered to their homes. With the development of new shopping centers in
the area City sales tax revenue from non-residents is further compromised.

How does it Work?
The property tax is an ad valorem tax, meaning it is levied based on the assessed
valuation of the underlying property. It is calculated by multiplying the mill levy by the
• assessed valuation. (A mill is one-tenth of a cent; thus, each mill represents $1 in taxes
for each $1,000 of assessed value.) The County Assessor determines property values and
the City sets the mill levy.
City charter limits the City's property tax levy to a maximum of 15 mills. It is presently
set at 9.797 mills.
Who pays?
All property owners pay the tax. Residential and commercial properties pay the tax;
renters of either residential or commercial property pay the tax indirectly through their
rent payments.
Under the Gallagher Amendment approved by voters in 1982, the residential assessment
rate is adjusted so that the tax burden of residential real property, statewide, remains
nearly the same as in the prior year, despite market value changes. Adjusted using the
Gallagher Amendment formula, the residential assessment rate has decreased
substantially since 1982 from an average statewide of 21%to approximately 8%today.
History of Revenue Source in Fort Collins
For 2006, the City expects to receive $14 million in property tax. The majority of the tax
(67.09% according to the Revenue Allocation Formula plus one full mill) will be
• transferred to the Poudre Fire Authority to support fire protection services. The
remainder of the property tax is used to pay for other services supported by the City's
General Fund. In previous years, the City had earmarked some property tax revenues by

policy for specific purposes including debt service on general obligation bonds, for
pension programs, and other uses. The proceeds are no longer designated for specific
purposes since the repayment of park bonds and the funding of pension plans has been
completed.
Due to restrictions in the State Constitution on property valuation and taxation, the
amount of tax paid by the owner of an average house in Fort Collins has remained fairly
low over the last ten years. As total valuation in the state has increased, the Gallagher
amendment forces the assessment ratio for residential property to decrease. The
calculation below shows the City property tax on a typical Fort Collins house.
Actual Value $255,000

How does it Work?
A sales tax is levied on general retail sales of tangible personal property. The total sales
tax in Fort Collins is currently 6.7% (2.9% state, 3% city and 0.8% county.) Sales taxes
can be dedicated (earmarked for a specific purpose) or non-dedicated (proceeds flow into
the City's general fund.) In Fort Collins, 2.25% of the 3% sales tax is non-dedicated and
• 0.75% is dedicated to specific projects or programs (BOB, Pavement Management and
Open Space, Yes).
A use tax is generally levied on the retail purchase of tangible personal property which is
purchased outside the taxing jurisdiction, but stored, used, or consumed within the
jurisdiction. The use tax is often levied in conjunction with the sales tax to prevent
"border-hopping"purchasing. The use tax is a complement to the sales tax. Most
Use tax keeps businesses within local boundaries, and "protects" them from businesses
outside the local boundary which could have a tax-avoidance competitive advantage (i.e.,
reduces the business incentive to relocate outside the taxing jurisdiction to avoid a sales
tax)
Who pays?
The sales tax is paid by both residents who make purchases within the City and visitors
from surrounding areas who shop in Fort Collins. Use taxes are paid on items purchased
for use within the City, but which do not pay a sales tax.
History of Revenue Source in Fort Collins
The City has had a general sales tax since 1968. The current base rate is 2.25%. Though
the tax rate has not increased since 1982,revenue growth has lead to significant growth in
• revenues. Despite the fact that the rate has not changed,revenue has in the past been
adequate to address service needs and expand.

Annual Yield to General Fund $1 million- $2.6 Million
Tax/Fee Amount $1 —2 per month,per residential unit
Approval Council approval required
Annual Cost to Average $12-$24 per year

How does it Work?
The proposed Transportation Maintenance Fee (TMF) would be a charge on City utility
bills for maintaining City streets, sidewalks and bike lanes. Maintenance includes such
work as keeping pavement surfaces in good condition, performing seal coats as needed,
repairing potholes and cracks, repaving and other work to keep our transportation system
safe. This work is done to maintain the community's investment in transportation
• infrastructure. The revenue from the fee could not be used for anything except street
maintenance.
Each residential unit would be charged a flat dollar amount ($1-2 per month) for the fee.
Commercial, industrial and institutional properties are assessed a fee based on trip
generation data—land uses which generate more trips are charged a higher fee than those
which generate fewer trips on the transportation system. This "nexus" or direct
relationship between the fee and the amount that a user utilizes the service is a key aspect
of developing the fee.
Who pays?
The basis of this fee is to charge users of the City's transportation system for its
maintenance. By charging a fee for the cost of maintenance, a portion of the system
would be funded by the parties most frequently using the streets and most directly
benefiting from its maintenance.
The fee would be based on the actual cost of maintaining the system, including City
streets, bike lanes, sidewalks and medians. The fee would be allocated to different users
based on the average number of trips each type of user takes in a day. This results in a
fee structure in which users pay in rough proportion to the extent they use the system.
For example, users who add 10 trips per day to the transportation system pay a fee much
lower than those user types (i.e. high traffic businesses) that average 300 trips per day.
• This trip generation theory is similar to the method used to calculate street oversizing

• fees, and has also been recognized by courts as a fair and legally appropriate way of
apportioning costs.
Loveland's Example:
City Staff has not yet pursued developing a detailed proposal for the Transportation
Maintenance Fee that includes specific fee schedules for various uses. In 2000, the City
of Loveland established a Street Maintenance Fee which is charged to all properties
within the Loveland city limits. As an example of one method of setting these fees, Staff'
collected information about the methodology used for Loveland's fee. Loveland assumes
that 68% of trips are generated by non-residential uses, and uses property acreage as a
part of its fee calculation. Both of these assumptions will be key parts of the policy
development process if the City of Fort Collins pursues implementing a Transportation
Maintenance Fee. Both assumptions have a significant impact on the ultimate cost of the
fee to various properties. Several other theories regarding the apportionment of costs
should be considered.
Residential units in Loveland pay $1.40 per unit per month. Other property types pay a
fee based on the use of the property. These uses tie to trip generation data to determine
the property's relative share of the cost of maintaining the transportation system.
Commercial, industrial and institutional uses are divided into seven categories.
Following are some examples of the fees charged to various types of properties under
• Loveland's model.

• History of Revenue Source in Fort Collins
The Transportation Maintenance or Transportation Utility Fee has a long history in Fort
Collins, dating back to its adoption by City Council in 1988, and a subsequent review of
the fee by the Colorado Supreme Court. A court challenge regarding the ability of the
City to levy such a fee was made and the case was argued at the Colorado State Supreme
Court. In the case, the court found that the fee was not a property tax, excise tax or
special assessment, but rather a special service fee. Though the fee was upheld, the City
did not implement the fee at that time.
More recently, other cities have used a Special Services Fee and those fees have been
found to be appropriate despite challenges regarding the application of the TABOR
amendment requirements on the imposition of a fee. A recent Court of Appeals decision
reaffirms a home rule city's ability to impose a special service fee and to do so without a
TABOR vote as long as: (1) the fee is imposed on persons or property to defray the costs
of a particular government service, and not the general expenses of government; (2) the
amount generated by the fee must be reasonably related to the overall cost of the service;
(3) the methodology used to determine the amount paid by individual fee payers has a
rational basis; and (4) revenues generated by the fee are segregated and used only for the
purpose for which the fee was imposed.
• An additional concern has been raised that the City is transferring the "tax" liability for
services to fee payers. Adopting the TMF would, in fact, shift part of the cost of street
maintenance from the general citizenry to those who use the streets most often and most
heavily.
Several discussions were held during the budget process suggesting that citizens are
already burdened with too many fees that support general government services. If
Council adopts the TMF, it would be the City's only special service fee that is imposed on
a City-wide basis for a general government service. The other general fund fees are
either impact fees paid by developers to offset the impacts of their developments, or user
fees paid by individuals who use City facilities (such as EPIC or the Lincoln Center), or
who use services such as those involved in processing permit and license applications.
Pros: Cons:
• Provides a stable and predictable funding • May be perceived as a tax increase

Applies to: All taxable sales with the City plus
transactions covered by use taxes
Annual Yield to General Fund '/4 cent=$5.6 million per year

General Fund gap ($2.8 million)
Approval Voter approval required
Annual Cost to Average 12.5¢per$100 purchase for 1/8 cent
Household 25¢per$100 purchase for %4 cent
How does it Work?
The City could seek voter approval for a Sales and Use Tax increase with the proceeds
dedicated to Public Safety and Emergency Services. The tax revenue could be used to
offset current General Fund contributions to Police Services, plus provide additional
revenue for service enhancements. These enhancements could be either for additional
Police Services or as additional revenue for meeting the Poudre Fire Authority's funding
• needs.
Who pays?
Fort Collins has used dedicated sales taxes in the past, but all have been for specific
capital projects or improvements to capital assets rather than for providing operating
Rinds for a service. Four other cities in the area have sales and use taxes dedicated to
funding for public safety programs. They include:
.15% in Boulder
.21%Arvada
.25%Aurora for Police Staffing
.60%Westminster for Public Safety
Pros: Cons:
• Dedicated funding source provides more • The first$2.6 million would be needed to offset
continuity of funding for a basic service current General Fund expenditures in public
health and emergency services,resulting in less
actual new resources for these oses
• Would result in freeing up General Fund • Difficult message to convey to voters,since a
resources greater than the$2.6 million in portion of the dedicated funds would be used to

• Option 7: PILOTs (Payments in Lieu of Taxes)
I
Applies to: All City Utility customers
Annual Yield to General Fund $1.4 million
Tax/Fee Amount 1%addition to Electric PILOT, 6%
increase to Stormwater fees
Approval Council Approval Required
Annual Cost to Average $5.76 Electric
Household $11.04 Stormwater
$16.80 Total
How does it Work?
PILOT stands for "Payment in Lieu of Taxes." The PILOT is paid to the City's General
Fund in place of revenue the City would receive in property taxes,use taxes and franchise
• fees if a privately owned utility provided these services in the City. These payments are
part of the General Fund revenue that support general City services, including police, fire,
library and parks.
As required by City Charter and City Code, a 6%PILOT is included in all electric, water,
and wastewater rates.
Staff has examined the City's existing PILOTS to compare the rates charged to other
utilities in the area. While the 6% PILOT for the Water and Wastewater Utilities are
comparable to others regionally, the Electric PILOT could be increased by 1%to a rate of
7% while remaining regionally comparable. A 1% increase in the Electric Utility PILOT
would yield approximately$700,000 per year. These funds could be used to help support
General Fund services as defined by City Council.
The City's Stormwater Utility is currently not assessed a PILOT. While Stormwater
Utilities are less common than Water, Wastewater and Electric Utilities, others do exist
regionally. By charging a 6% PILOT to the Stormwater Utility, approximately $740,000
per year could be provided to support General Fund services.
Who pays?
All city utility rate payers would be assessed the additional PILOT. An additional 1%
would be added to the PILOT for Electric utility customers, and a 6% PILOT would be
• added to Stormwater Utility customer bills. All or a portion of the rate increase may be
absorbed under current utility rates.

History of Revenue Source in Fort Collins
PILOTS have been charged to City utility customers since at least the 1954 Charter was
approved. Since 1988, the amount of the PILOTS has been set by ordinance, with a rate
of 5% from 1989-1997, increasing to 6% from 1997 to the present.
Currently, the City's charter provides that:
"If the utility is subject to a payment to the general fund in lieu of taxes and
franchise fees, an estimate shall be made of the amount of taxes and franchise fees
that would be chargeable against such utility if privately owned, and the amount
of such payment, as determined by the Council under Article XII, Section 6 of
this Charter, shall be charged against the utility fund." (Charter Article V, Section
23)
In 2006, the existing PILOTs are estimated to generate about $6,954,000 for the General
Fund.
Pros: Cons:
• • Provides a stable and predictable additional • All utility customers would be affected,thus
revenue source for General Fund needs the PILOT may be regressive
• Is competitive with other Electric rates in • May be perceived as a tax increase
the private and public sector
• All or a portion of the PILOT may be able
to be absorbed in current utility rates
• Pays for the City services used by the
utilities just as paid by other businesses or
enterprises: Police,street maintenance,

Alternative with Forestry:
$4.70/month
Approval City Council approval required

Household or
$56.40/ ear
How does it Work?
• The City of Fort Collins is developing a park system based on a standard of 7 acres of
parkland per 1,000 population. Our progressive neighborhood and community park
impact fees provide a very effective source of funding to build our parks as our
community grows. The difficulty is finding sufficient, ongoing General Fund dollars to
maintain our parks. The Parks Division has developed a funding option to alleviate the
need for General Fund money to fund maintenance of the City's community parks. The
community parks are the City's largest and most actively used parks. They provide a
community-wide benefit and the cost to maintain them is an appropriate basis for a
community-wide fee.
Who pays?
The following chart is an example of the monthly cost to citizens if this fee was put into
place. The fee is based on the number of City residential electrical utility accounts. The
example is based on a 2% utility account growth rate and a 3% inflation rate. The fee
would pay for the annual maintenance of current community parks and would create a
funding source for future community parks scheduled to be built over the next 15 years.
The community parks portion of the park system would be completed at this time unless
growth boundaries were changed. The fee in this example includes major renovations
and repairs and equipment replacement. It does not include forestry costs for the park
sites.
Alternative Calculation:
• Another option which could be considered in calculating this fee would be to add an
additional amount to the fee for the maintenance of the City's Urban Forest. Similar to
