    • Special Financing District Formation & Consulting

      Inadequate revenue streams, competing demands and staffing challenges make it hard for local agencies to provide all the services and infrastructure their citizens desire. That’s where our decades of hands-on experience in the feasibility, design, formation and, importantly, ongoing administration of SFDs, becomes invaluable. SFDs include benefit assessments, special taxes and other property-related fees and charges.

    • Fee Studies & Cost Allocation Plans

      Municipalities require stable funding, and a wide range of fees are necessary. That’s where we come in. A User Fee Study identifies the “estimated and reasonable” costs of providing governmental services or infrastructure, and implements fee amounts in line with laws and local policies. Cost Allocation Plans allocate an agency’s overhead costs to the programs, services and activities provided to the public.

    • Utility Rate & Capacity Fee Studies

      Defensible rates that support forward-looking strategic and financial plans are more critical now than ever. We provide the necessary leadership to guide you through the rate-setting process, from performing analyses to educating stakeholders. Our goal is to ensure that your rates, fees and financial plans meet your utility’s goals and objectives.

    • Fiscal Impact Analyses & Development Impact Fees

      New development requires local agencies to consider their revenue options for desired services and infrastructure. We can help, with a Fiscal Impact Analysis (FIA) that calculates the fiscal impacts on local services as a result of important land use and other policy decisions. Revenue tools such as Development Impact Fees provide for infrastructure, and SFDs can be implemented to help offset ongoing service impacts.
