SUBJECT: FISCAL MODEL DATE: OCTOBER 20, 2015 PAGE2OF3 For trail miles, adjusting the available capacity does not impact how many additional miles are needed in the sample development scenario, just when they are needed, so there is no change in the facility costs or overall fiscal outcome. Trails Available Capacity 20 yr Parks and Trails Costs 20 yr Total Fiscal Benefit 1% $26,753,000 $62,166,000 10% $26,753,000 $62,166,000 50% $26,753,000 $62,166,000 90% $26,753,000 $62,166,000 Using the Rec Facilities as an example, adjusting the available capacity impacts whether a new Rec Facility is needed at all. The cost for a new Rec Facility in the table below is Tess than what we expect for the new Rec Center because it is based on the average of the two facilities included in Rec Facilities, the Rec Center and Memory Square locker rooms. Rec Facilities Available Capacity 20 yr Rec Facilities Costs 20 yr Total Fiscal Benefit 1% $6,459,000 (Year 2) $63,983,000 10% $6,459,000 (Year 12) $63,983,000 50% $0 $71,870,000 90% $0 $71,870,000 For operational capacities, staff chose to use the police officer category as an example. The model uses number of calls per police officer as the determinant of capacity. The table below shows a range of available capacity assumptions for police officers and the resulting costs and total fiscal benefits associated with the development scenario assumed. Like the capital facilities marginal costs, the operational costs associated with different available capacities yields minimal differences. Each assumption does change the years in which additional police officers are needed. Because the salaries for the additional police officers are cumulative instead of one -time costs like the capital facilities, the timing of adding new officers does impact the final outcome.
