For example, there are construction phase <br /> employment and spending impacts, as well as spending by residents and/or business within a proposed <br /> development that goes to local businesses, services and contractors and is used to buy goods and services <br /> from other local companies; and the latter companies in turn buy goods and services from still other local <br /> businesses. In this task TischlerBise will utilize the IMPLAN model to calculate the multiplier effects of <br /> increased spending within the local economy. <br /> Meetings: <br /> One (1)onsite meeting with County project management team and relevant staff. <br /> Deliverable: <br /> 1) Technical Memorandum Discussing Land Use Profiles for the Orange County Fiscal/Economic Impact <br /> Model. 2) Technical Memorandum Discussing Geographic Service Areas for the Orange County <br /> Fiscal/Economic Impact Model. <br /> TASK 3: DEVELOPMENT OF LEVEL OF SERVICE, COST& REVENUE FACTOR ASSUMPTIONS <br /> TischlerBise will review budget documents (annual budget, capital improvement plans, CAFRs) for the <br /> County and will conduct meetings with service providers from all affected departments. The purpose of <br /> these onsite interviews is to provide us with an understanding of the departmental structure and scope of <br /> operations, discuss facility-related variable costs and other operating expenses, as well as discuss and <br /> finalize methodologies for forecasting future demand for services and facilities resulting from new <br /> development. Based on the interviews, we will determine the fixed, variable, and semi-variable operating <br /> and capital costs for all relevant services and facilities. We will also determine levels of service for each <br /> department or service and determine the service relationship to each land use type in terms of costs and <br /> revenue factors. <br /> Information obtained during this Task will be prepared in a Level of Service and Cost/Revenue Factor <br /> Document (Appendix to User's Manual). This document will show the different cost components for the <br /> various service providers, including both facility and non-facility related operating expenses, methodologies <br /> for forecasting future capital facility needs, associated operating expenses, and discussions of current <br /> versus preferred levels of service where appropriate. The document will also contain a separate chapter <br /> showing revenue sources and associated projection methodologies. All revenue will be modeled including <br /> property and sales tax. <br /> Meetings: <br /> Two (2)onsite meetings with various County department staff. <br /> Deliverables: <br /> Technical document outlining Level of Service and Cost/Revenue Projection Methodologies (Appendix to <br /> User's Manual). <br /> TischlerBise 23 <br /> :ISCAL I ECONOMIC I PLONNmG <br />
