<br />Subject: TCAAP Park Costs
<br />At the November 21st City Council worksession, WSB provided preliminary park
<br />improvement cost estimates for the Creek, Hill, and Town Center parks. The preliminary
<br />cost estimates totaled approximately $18,995,000 for all three parks. The current park
<br />dedication fee is projected to generate about $11,084,000 of fees to pay for the park
<br />improvements. WSB and the Master Development Team did not have an opportunity prior
<br />to the worksession to review and reconcile the assumptions behind those estimates.
<br />Additionally, the park dedication fee calculation did not include the potential fee schedule
<br />increases.
<br />WSB, Ehlers, Tradition Homes and Alex Duval subsequently reviewed the cost estimates
<br />together to review the park program assumptions, reconcile potential differences, and
<br />identify solutions for remaining cost gaps. Based on the results of this joint review, the total
<br />estimated park improvement cost estimate is now approximately $14,500,000 or about $4.5
<br />million less than the initial estimate. This cost reconciliation identifies a path that is intended
<br />to maintain the overall integrity of the park program while sensibly adjusting the fees to
<br />cover the park improvement costs.
