SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 24 STORMWATER UTILITY FEE INCREASE VA Y673 In advance of the Stormwater Utility Fee increase coming before Council for final approval upcoming on October 31, 2023, which follows the initial positive reception during the FY 24 Budget deliberations, this report provides City Council with a summary of the adoption process and reminder of what the fee increase will fund. The memo below also shares the communication plan leading up to the new fee taking effect on January 1, 2024. The original August 24, 2023 Budget Work Session presentation on the proposed fee increase is attached for reference. There was a subsequent Budget Response issued on September 7, BR-24-7, that addressed Council questions for acceleration of proposed flood mitigation improvements and the Stormwater fee credit policy. What the Fee Increase will Fund The 15% Stormwater Utility fee increase will be split roughly 50/50 between capital and maintenance needs and will bring in an estimated additional $5.9M in FY24 and $7.7M in FY25. The fee increase will provide the capacity to issue an estimated $160M of debt in 4 tranches over 12 years, to address high priority capital flood mitigation improvements. The improvements funded by the fee increase will reduce flooding and emergency response, provide for more effective asset management, increase maintenance service levels reducing the need for costly capital projects, improve public safety and quality of life, and save the City and residents money. Capital Flood Mitigation Improvements Additional revenue from the fee increase will provide funding for Phase 1 of high priority flood mitigation improvements in the Upper Lebow, Linwood /W. 7t", and Berry/ McCart areas. Future funding will be needed to continue to implement phased flood mitigation improvements in these areas, and to accelerate project delivery. The 15% increase will construct the initial Phase 1 improvements by FY38 and leaves the remaining phases to complete the overall projects unfunded. The Sept. 7, 2023 Budget Response (No. 24-017) shows how flood mitigation improvements could be accelerated with additional Stormwater Utility fee increases in future fiscal years. Additionally, the Stormwater Program is evaluating grant opportunities and the potential creation of a Tax Increment Finance (TIF) District in the Linwood /W. 7t" area, which could also help advance flood mitigation improvements in a more timely fashion. Project development for Upper Lebow and Linwood /W. 7t" was initiated in June 2023. Project development for the Berry/ McCart improvements will kick off in Fall 2023, after the review and evaluation of recently received Statements of Qualifications and contract negotiation. Based on a combination of planning level estimated project costs, the necessary project development work efforts to identify feasible project phases, and the availability of estimated new revenue, the design and construction of Phase 1 improvements is expected to take place according to the estimated timeframes in the table below. Project components, design and construction phasing and cost estimates will be refined during project development.

Specifically, Slide 36 shows the estimated delivery plan based on utility fee revenue projections, estimated debt sale interest rates, and project development to define capital components, design and construction phasing and cost estimates in more detail. Maintenance Service Level Improvements Additional revenue from the fee increase will be used to implement a 5-year plan to improve service levels. The maintenance funding would go towards our highest current needs to increasing our rate of pipe condition assessments and increasing pipe/structure repairs and channel maintenance. The 5-year plan to fund and implement these service levels will be through the below planned improvements. • Culvert Inspection and Cleaning (FY24) • Pre-condition Assessment Inspection and Cleaning (FY24) • Additional Pipe Repair (FY27) • Additional Channel Maintenance (FY27) • Additional Condition Assessment (FY28) More information about the improvements above can be found in the attached presentation. The benefits of improving the above maintenance service levels include: city-wide data collection, flood mitigation, and keeping infrastructure in good condition to reduce costly capital funding needs in the future During implementation of the 5-year plan from this fee revenue, other maintenance backlog needs will continue to be evaluated. The importance of continued maintenance funding cannot be overstated, and the program will continue to prioritize addressing the backlog of needs for aged infrastructure, and the growing asset inventory from development growth. Communications About Fee Increase Information about the proposed fee increase was included in the sixteen FY24 budget public meetings in addition to City News stories. The Stormwater Program webpage also includes information about the fee ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER FORT WORTH, TEXAS INFORMAL REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS No. 23-0759 To the Mayor and Members of the City Council October 10, 2023 Page 3 of 3 xA. SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 24 STORMWATER UTILITY FEE INCREASE VA Y673 increase, including a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document at: https://www.fortworthtexas.gov/departments/tpw/stormwater Section 552.045 (c) and (d) of the Local Government Code requires publication of any intended revision to a municipality's schedule of drainage charges three times prior to a public hearing and adoption of rates with the first posting at least 30 days before a public hearing. Staff have published notification of an October 31, 2023 public hearing along with the proposed ordinance in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on September 22, 2023, September 29, 2023 and October 6, 2023. After the October 31, 2023 public hearing, letters will be mailed to the top twenty rate payers and independent school districts about the rate increase. These letters will include information about the Stormwater Utility Fee Credit policy and how to get more information on the program and opportunities to potentially reduce their fee. Additionally, information about the fee increase will be included in the City Times insert included in water bills, mailed citywide in December, and also posted on the Water Department webpage, for communicating with their online only payment customers. City News and social media will also be utilized to communicate about the increase this fall, in addition to posting notifications at locations where water bills can be paid in-person. Notifications sent via the Community Engagement Office will include emails through govdelivery, notification posted citywide on Next Door, and emails to citywide Neighborhood Association leaders to disseminate to their member database. Other Community Engagement opportunities are to include distributing/posting FAQs at Library and Community Centers. Information about the fee increase will be provided to the City Call Center, Water Billing representatives, and Stormwater Customer Service representatives so that questions about the increase can be quickly responded to.
