EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Clancy Mullen of Duncan Associates will attend a meeting of the Board of County Commissioners and
make a presentation explaining the fundamentals of road impact fee methodology. This presentation will
be coordinated with the County's traffic consultant for this meeting, who is expected to be Scot Leftwich.
The presentation will explain the fundamental concepts of consumption -based traffic impact fees, of
which the study prepared by Duncan Associates to update the County's current fees is a variant. In
particular, the presentation will explain how the methodology divides trip rates in half, so that trips to
nonresidential uses are not being counted twice. It also needs to explain how the methodology accounts
for pass -by trips, so that a trip from home to work that stops at several stores only counts as one trip to
the workplace and no trips to the stores. It will also be explained that while a new branch bank or
convenience retail in certain locations could reduce some trip lengths for a short while, that does not
provide a reasonable basis for reducing fees for those types of uses, and certainly not for nonresidential
in general. Finally, the presentation will explain the methodology that was developed in a study that
MuniFinancial did for Marion County to justify putting most road costs on residential under the theory that
"retail follows rooftops."
