• A. Continue Discussion on Paid In Lieu of Taxes
Finance Director Iverson started the meeting by explaining how the data staff collected was compiled.
She indicated the data collected from the Sheriff and Fire Department was entered into a GIS mapping
application and reports on that data were prepared for FPAC. The data was then grouped based on the
total call times. She explained that the mobile home park has a large call volume compared to the rest
of the City and brings in a large amount of fiscal disparities dollars to the City as well.
Mayor Grant asked what the per capita impact of the mobile home park was on fiscal disparities.
Director Iverson indicated she would research this and get back to the Committee.
Jim Ostlund asked what the actual cost per call was for the Sheriff and Fire Department. Director
Iverson reported that she has sent the past expenses to the GIS coordinator so that they can create a
report on the average cost per call based on land use type.
Jim Ostlund then brought up the question of what off duty employment consisted of. He asked staff if
they could research this and get back to the Committee at the next meeting. He also asked staff to
check on the large number of calls that are located at the Ramsey County site and what they consist of,
Arlene Mitchell asked which properties in the City were tax-exempt and asked a list be printed out
showing just the tax-exempt properties. She also questioned if the list could be sorted showing the
larger entities vs.the smaller entities. Ms.Mitchell indicated she could then look up the market value
of each property type if she could get a list of the properties. Director Iverson stated that she may be
able to have the GIS coordinator provide that data,however,was unsure if that data was gathered when
she collected the original data from Ramsey County.

0 Arden Hills Summary of
Selected Factors Related to City Finance
Prepared by Dr. Linda Tomaselli, GISRDC
September 10, 2013
This report provides a further refinement of an analysis of Emergency Services calls for 2011
and 2012, as well as analysis of some additional factors that affect city finance, including land
use,population, and the Fiscal Disparities law.
I. Emergency Calls
The analysis of emergency calls has been separated by year. The purpose is to analyze changes
that may have taken place from one year to the next. A refinement of the matching of calls has
been done, so that some statistics may differ from those presented in the earlier report of June
10, 2013.
The Sheriff,Fire and Dispatch billings have also been analyzed and cost factors per call have
been calculated. Table 1 shows the calculation of the costs per call. The amount of Dispatch
has been allocated between Sheriff and Fire based on the proportions of the billing for each.
This works out to be about 70%for the Sheriff and 30%for Fire.
Table 1

Year Billing ment Dispatch Total Calls* $per Call
2011 $930,692 -$41,722 $29,553 $918,523 3804 $241.46

2012 $392,869 $14,507 $407,376 387 $1,052.65
* includes all calls,even those not found to be in city.
Table 2 shows the numbers of calls by year and general land use category.According to Table
2,the number of Sheriff calls increased by about 10.5%,while the number of Fire calls went
down by 8%. Table 3 summarizes this information from a cost standpoint,using the cost
multipliers from Table 1. Table 4 provides a more comprehensive analysis by detailed land
use category. Note that the sheriff calls to the federal interstate highways decreased by 10%,
while the calls to city streets increased substantially. This is probably due to the road closings
due to construction, and the diversion of traffic onto local streets. Using the per call costs from
Table 1, Table 5 shows the costs by land use category.
•

• Maps 1 and 2 show the distribution of calls for 2011 and 2012. Map 3 shows the change in
the number of calls to streets and highways from 2011 to 2012. Again, it shows the decrease in
the calls to I 694 and Highway 10,while the more local streets see an increase. Map 4 shows
the change in calls by parcels. Note the decrease in the calls to the Mobile Home Park.

II. Land Use and Market Values
There are four major land use types in the city: Commercial/Industrial, Tax Exempt,
Residential, Streets and Highways,plus vacant that can be in any of the first three. These can
be further broken down to about 52 more detailed categories based on an interpretation of the
classifications and codes in the Ramsey County Assessor's file. The definition of land use is an
ongoing process as more information becomes available. Table 8 summarizes the land use in
Arden Hills by these detailed categories. Since the TCAAP property consumes so much of
Arden Hills' land area, the land use percentages without TCAAP are also provided. The table
also shows the 2012 gross market value from Ramsey County and the approximate 2011
taxable indicated market value, as used for the Fiscal Disparities program.
It would be impossible to show a single map with all of the detailed land use categories.
Therefore, four maps show each of the major categories. Map 4 shows residential land use,
Map 5 shows Commercial/Industrial, Map 6 shows Tax Exempt and Map 7 shows Streets and
Highways. In some cases there are residential uses among the commercial and exempt
categories. They are categorized as commercial or exempt accordingly, however.
III.Population
A major factor that influences finances in Arden Hills is population. We do not have
population numbers down to the parcel level. Even the Census Bureau collects population
down the city block level only. Therefore, we must allocate population to parcels based on the
best information we have available. The parcel data includes the number of housing units in
many,but not all,cases. For single-family housing it provides the number of bedrooms. In
some cases data is missing at the parcel level and has had to be added in manually. By using
the housing unit and bedroom counts, with the control totals of population and housing at the
block level, population has been allocated to the parcels. Of course,this will be estimated
population only. At the parcel level,the population count will be expressed as a decimal, such
as .9 persons, or 2.25 persons. Some of the housing units may be unoccupied, but we do not
know which ones. We do know that the summary numbers equal the census block totals.
This is the best we can do. This is somewhat of an art as well as a science.
Table 9 summarizes housing and population counts by type of housing unit. Map 9 shows the
population distribution.
IV. Fiscal Disparities
Arden Hills is a net contributor to the Fiscal Disparities pool. That is because Arden Hills has
a large amount of Commercial and Industrial development compared to other units of
government in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. With the abundance of Interstate and other
highway access,Arden Hills has a geographic advantage for attracting Commercial and
Industrial development that other locations do not have. Cities and townships receive a
distribution from the Fiscal Disparities pool based on a formula that is based on the inverse of
taxable market value per capita. Those with market values per capita below the regional
IPaverage receive more than those with values that are above the average. Arden Hills, with its
wealth of Commercial and Industrial development and rather high residential market values per
capita,receives less, back as a distribution,than it contributes to the pool.

• A. Commercial/Industrial Fiscal Disparities Contribution
Table 10 shows that about 32 %of the city's taxable market value and 48%of its Tax Capacity
comes from Commercial/Industrial (C/I) land use. As a result, in 2012 Arden Hills
contributed about 37%of its C/I Tax Capacity to the metropolitan regional pool under the
Fiscal Disparities Law, or$2,505,319. Using the 2011 Tax rate of According to the law,40%
of the increase in CI value since 1971 is contributed to the regional Fiscal Disparities pool.
Since much of the city's CI growth has occurred since 1971, Arden Hills' contribution comes
very near to (but will never exceed) 40%. Detailed information on how much each C/I
property contributes is not yet available, so the amounts for each land use are approximate,
using the citywide average of 37.423%. Map 9 shows the distribution of Arden Hills' Fiscal
Disparities contribution.
B. Residential Fiscal Disparities Distribution
As stated earlier,the distribution a city or township (minor civil division, or"MCD") receives
from Fiscal Disparities is based on a formula that uses the inverse of market value per capita.
To illustrate,the calculation of Arden Hills' distribution is shown below.
First, each MCD's taxable market value is equalized for differences in assessment practices,
and the amount contributed to Fiscal Disparities is deducted to derive the Indicated Market
Value (IMV). Since we do not yet have the actual parcel amounts, the total estimated
Indicated Market Value for Arden Hills for 2012 was $997,260,763. Arden Hills' IMV per
capita was $997,260,763 divided by the 2010 population of 9,552,to derive an IMV per capita
4111 of$104,403.

The total Indicated Market Value for the entire metropolitan area was $269,402,748,258, and
the population was 2,841,795, resulting in a metropolitan average IMV per capita of $94,800.
The Fiscal Disparities formula uses a measure called"Fiscal Capacity". This is not to be
confused with Tax Capacity,which is the amount the local tax rate is multiplied by to
determine property taxes, and will be referred to below.

• Fiscal Capacity is calculated as follows:
Fiscal Capacity=Population, Multiplied times Metro IMV per Capita
(Divided by)
The MCD IMV per Capita

total Fiscal Capacity was .27824%. This percentage was multiplied times the total regional
pool Tax Capacity contributions of $389,815,867. Arden Hills' share of the regional Tax
Capacity in 2012 was $1,084,613. Multiplying this times the local 2011 tax rate of 24.187%
resulted in the amount of $262,335 in tax revenue received by Arden Hills for 2012 from
Fiscal Disparities. This averages out to about$27.46 per capita.
C. Fiscal Disparities Distribution and Land Use
The degree to which different land uses in Arden Hills bring in Fiscal Disparities revenue can
also be calculated in a similar manner. Arden Hills has Bethel University,which has
population, yet does not have taxable market value. Without Bethel,Arden Hills would
• receive less revenue, because its population would be lower. Likewise,the mobile home park,
in which the mobile homes are taxed as personal property, also has a considerable amount of
population,yet a relatively small taxable market value. Arden Hills' single-family homes tend
to be higher than the regional average market value per capita, and therefore do not bring in as
much revenue as the other residential uses.
The amount each residential land use can be calculated in the same manner as calculating the
regional distribution. Table 11 shows this. First, each land use must receive a per capita share
of the commercial/industrial market value used in the computations;then equalization factors
must be factored in. The result is the Indicated Market Value (IMV) for each residential land
use. Next,the population to derive Fiscal Capacity divides the IMV.Note that Bethel
University, other exempt residential and the mobile home park have very low Fiscal
Capacities. The other uses have higher Fiscal Capacities than the regional average ($94,800)
as well as the city's average of$104,403. As a result,their proportions compared to the city
average are less than 1. This proportion is multiplied times the population to get the
distribution index,just as in the regional calculations. Next the distribution indices are divided
by the city total to get the percentage that each land use is responsible for the city's Fiscal
Disparities distribution. Note that Bethel and the other exempt uses bring in about$67 per
capita, and the mobile home park brings in about $48. The apartments and condominiums
bring in amounts closer to the city average while the town homes, 2-3 unit residence units and
single-family homes bring in far less than the city average. Map 10 shows the Fiscal
Disparities revenue distribution. Blue dots represent parcels that bring in less than the city
average because of their higher value. Yellow dots show parcels that bring in almost the
• average, while green dots show parcels and land uses that bring in substantially more revenue
because of their lower taxable market value per capita. Think of these land uses as individual
cities, with each bringing in revenue in inverse proportion to their relative wealth.

V. Summary
This analysis has studied just a few of the factors that contribute to the complexities of local
government finance. Emergency calls are a major component on the city's operating budget,
yet they are not the only ones. Road maintenance and snow plowing are others.
Fiscal Disparities is only one of many revenue sources for city operations. Yet this analysis
has demonstrated that if the factors that contribute to the complex array of city finance can be
isolated and studied,then one can begin to comprehend how other factors play a part. To be
sure,property taxes can directly determined by land use down to the parcel level. Other
revenues will have to be more subjectively analyzed. Population surely plays an important
role, and the distribution has been determined as best as can be done. What remains is an
ongoing analysis of the other components of city finance to get the best idea as to the fiscal
impact of different land uses in the city. This information will be useful in projecting the
impact of future land use decisions.

EN HILLS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 10, 2013
TO: Financial Planning and Analysis Committee
FROM: Kyle Howard, Finance Analyst
SUBJECT: Utility Rate Update
Background
FPAC spent most of 2012 reviewing the City's Utility rates. At the end of 2012 the City Council adopted
FPAC's suggestions on the modifications to the Utility billing system. As of January 2013 the new rates
became effective.
For 2013 the rates have followed FPACs forecast closely. The City has billed 3 times with the new rates
and has received very few complaints about the new billing structure. As of 12/05/2013 the Water fund
has collected 81%of the budgeted revenues, Sewer and Storm Water funds are running at 79%and 84%.
Although we have stronger data to base a forecast on this year, than in prior years, we still do not have
100% clarity in 2013. This year staff has been working on correcting many issues that the old meters
missed, mainly related to water leaks. With the new meters and software that the City implemented at the
end of 2012 staff has been able to notify home owners of possible leaks. We are predicting that by the end
of 2014 we should have better data to compare the rates against. This will allow the City to then rerun the
forecast model and determine if the rates need to be adjusted further.
As of the last billing the Sewer Funds forecast show's that it is running in the negative. This is largely due
to the adjustments that were made to customer's bills along with some Capital Improvement Project
changes. We are thinking that the fund should recover and return to a positive fund balance without
changing the rate. However this won't be a certainty until the end of 2014 when we will have stronger
data to forecast the fund balance with.
