"From Jeff Bronow, TA Inc. to 651 490 2931 at 11/19/99 11:04 AM Pg 003/005 marginal costs fi)r each of the divisions in the Community Development fund. 3. On Page 18, there were questions regarding the 21 year population and job growth nmnbers with the nmnber 21 circled. Growth from 1999 to 2020 is used and this represents a 21 year period. 4. On Page 22 there was a question about the source of the 13.04 million square feet of nonresidential space in the City. This question was also asked on Page 43. 111is total was based on the number of employees by employee type times the square feet per employee estimate. The total employment and the square feet per employee by employment type were provided by the City. I estimated the employment breakdown based on data provided from the Minnesota Department of Economic Security, which breaks down employment by SIC category. If the City has better data. or a better methodology, please let me know, and I will make the appropriate changes. 5. On Page 25, there was a question regarding the City Planning Conunission and something else I can't read. I am not sure what this is referring to. Please not that all operating expenditures in the General Fund have been accounted for and discussed in the LOS document. 6. On Page 29, there was a question about whether or not the Police calls for service percentage distribution between residential and nonresidential land uses would change with growth. Yes, this percentage will most likely change, particularly given that the City is anticipating a lot more nonresidential development in the fiJture compared to relatively small amounts of residential development. The baseline percentage, however, is used to calculate the associated cost per person and cost per nonresidential trip (a good indicator of activity). These baseline costs will remain constant. That is, even though the percentage of total calls for nonresidential will increase, the net cost per trip should remain the same (assuming current service levels). Total trips will also increase, rcsulting in more nonresidential police costs, but the cost pcr trip will not change. 7. On Page 30, it was indicated that new growth may indeed require the need for new fire equipment. ~~ This was not what I was told during the interview process. If this is of concern, please check ---- 1J' with the Fire Chief (showing him the scenarios) and let me know if there are to be any changes relating to this. 8. On Page 31, there is a comment indicating that the concentrated growth scenario reflects a 100 percent increase in jobs. This refers to the statement in the LOS that the Page 3
