(Approved by Public Safety Committee May 27, 2014) Background:When a person is arrested and booked, the arresting officer must obtain a warrant from the Warrants Office in the Judicial Center. This procedure was automated in 2009 when software from Palatine Technology Group (PTG) was implemented that eliminated the need for a deputy to go to the Warrants Office in person. The process involves the use of computer networks, computers, and video cameras in order to eliminate the travel component of the warrant process. Images as well as warrants are transmitted electronically so that the warrant can be obtained more quickly and the deputy can return to duty.The original contract with Palatine Technology Group was approved by the commission on March 17, 2009. Analysis:The original version of the Electronic Warrant Interchange (EWI) product has not had a significant upgrade since it was introduced in 2009. PTG has released a new version (version 5) which includes many enhancements to the product. These include: 1. Browser-based application using the latest web technology (it runs on an intranet and not public internet). 2. The entire application was rewritten and it is 300% faster than previous version. 3. All forms are generated in adobe PDF format (it no longer uses Microsoft Word). 4. The application includes an integrated spell checker. 5. The application supports mobile devices (including Laptops and Microsoft Surface Pro). 6. Built in SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) compliance Video Conferencing. 7. Enterprise version allows unlimited users to access EWI information from various stations and departments within the county. 8. Supports touch screen monitors to sign on screen instead of use of signature pads. 9. Can be used in Patrol cars or specialized unit such as DUI or Mobile Command Units. 10. Enhanced interface and business logic to improve error checking and system robustness. 11. Addition of Dashboard functionality to view all case information at a glance. 12. Support photo, document and video images to be Cover Memo Item # 16 added to case. 13. New Administrative module simplifies day to day operation of the system and provides tracking log that can be downloaded to Excel.

Site Criteria & Standards) Submitting Department, Agency, or Association: PROJECT SUMMARY SHEET Jessye Norman School of the Arts Check box if project represents a continuation from a previous SPLOST: Project Location / Address: In 2008, the Jessye Norman School of the Arts was the recipient of a 20,000 ft2 building located at the corner of Eighth and Greene Streets in Downtown Augusta. Only the 2nd floor was renovated. This project supports the final phase to renovate the first floor. The size of this building enables the school to quadruple the number of children it currently serves. As part of this growth, the school wants to have the ability to serve children with disabilities. In order to accomplish this, this project supports the installation of an elevator and minor building modifications making it completely handicap accessible. 739 Greene Street, Augusta, Georgia Current Property Owner (if applicable):Rachel Longstreet Foundation, Inc. 706-840-0008 Home Phone: Roger Duke Proposed Project Budget (round to nearest thousands): Project Mission Statement / Goals & Objectives: This project needs to be completed by 2011. The Mission of The Jessye Norman School of the Arts (JNSA) is to provide children (5th thru 11th grade) , who may be economically disadvantaged, with a broad-ranged, professional-quality Fine Arts education. The school nurtures and develops youths to respect and appreciate art in its myriad forms and to recognize the role and value of the arts in society. The goal of this project is to modify the school's facilities to accomodate all children, including those that are physically disadvantaged, as well as economically disadvantaged. In order to accomplish this, the objective of this project is to install an elevator. Why should this project be considered for SPLOST 2010 type funding? The Jessye Norman School of the Arts (JSNA) will aggressively begin its first floor renovation project in January 2009. The current plan is to complete the renovations of the first floor within 18 months. The final phase of the project will be the installation of the elevator, which scheduled to take place in 2010 (design) and 2011 (installation). To meet the Project Goals & Objectives, when should this project be completed? How will this project help meet the Public Safety, Basic Facilities / Infrastructure, and/or Quality of Life needs in Augusta Richmond County? The Jessye Norman School of the Arts (JSNA) is an after-school program designed to develop and nurture the artistic and creative talents of students. The School of the Arts serves the cultural and educational needs of these traditionally under-served youth by providing: free fine arts instruction, academic tutoring, an opportunity for advanced study in dance, drama, music, and art exposure to professionals working within the arts fields, information on possible careers in the arts knowledge of technical aspects of presentation and performance. This project will enable the school to better serve youths that are physically challenged, as well as economically challenged. Studies have shown that JNSA students outperform their peers academically, thus improving their overall quality of life. 12/7/2008 1 Attachment number 2 \nPage 1 of 5 Item # 21 E. A. B. C.

Last year 70% or more were from single parent homes. Studies have shown that juvenile crimes are the highest between 4-6:30 in the afternoon, when many kids are unsupervised. After school programs are known to reduce juvenile crime. Statistics also show that students involved in the arts have better school attendance, and improved academic scores. A comparison of student reading scores revealed that music and music education students had the highest reading scores of any major on campus. While there are positve academic impacts, being a part of JNSA gives these youths opportunities to be with peers of similar interests, and these interests have nothing to do with gangs or cruising the streets after school.

Background:Augusta issued bonds in 2004 to finance various water and sewer improvements. The bond documents provided that the bonds could be called after ten years. Analysis:Current interest rates on tax exempt municipal bonds are lower that the rates on the existing bonds which makes refunding these bonds a prudent financial decision. Current projections show present value interest savings of approximately $17,600,000 if the bonds are refunded at today’s prevailing interest rates. In addition, the Utilities Department has needed projects that cannot be timely funded through cash flow. These projects are estimated to total between $20 million and $30 million. Financial Impact:Described above Alternatives:a) Issue bonds to refund the existing bonds and issue additional bonds for needed projects. b) Not refund the existing bonds and not issue bonds for new projects. c) Either refund the existing bonds and not issue additional bonds or not refund the existing bonds and issue additional bonds.

In addition, the Utilities Department has needed projects that cannot be timely funded through cash flow. These projects are estimated to total between $20 million and $30 million. Financial Impact:Described above Alternatives:a) Issue bonds to refund the existing bonds and issue additional bonds for needed projects. b) Not refund the existing bonds and not issue bonds for new projects. c) Either refund the existing bonds and not issue additional bonds or not refund the existing bonds and issue additional bonds. Recommendation:Refund the existing bonds and issue bonds to include additional funds of up to $30 million for new projects. Cover Memo Item # 26 Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: This is an enterprise fund and does not impact the General Fund budget. Receipts from operations will pay debt service. REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Cover Memo Item # 26 Commission Meeting Agenda 6/3/2014 2:00 PM Druid Park Avenue Road Diet Project - Design Services Final Phase Department:Abie Ladson, Director Caption:Motion to approve funding final phases of Augusta, Georgia’s existing Design Services Agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates for the Druid Park Avenue Road Diet Project (RC07- 001219) $328,581. This project is on the approved Band 1 list of Richmond County’s Transportation Investment Act of 2010 (aka, TIA, TSPLOST) projects as requested by AED/TE. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee May 27, 2014) Background:A “Road Diet” is technique employed in transportation engineering whereby the number of travel lanes or travel-lane widths are reduced in order to achieve other systemic benefits such as bike lanes, wider sidewalks, shorter crossings, and traffic calming. This concept has been shown to encourage multi-modal transportation use as well as improve safety for all roadway users. In addition to Druid Park Avenue, other areas that road diets are being considered include 15th Street, Upper Broad Street, and Laney Walker Boulevard. The extents of this project run from Wrightsboro Road to Walton Way and includes its intersection with Laney Walker Boulevard where a roundabout is currently proposed. Analysis:In February 2014, commission approved the initial design phases of the project that included traffic studies, data collection, renderings, and future public involvement. The purpose of this item is to move the project forward to full design. Financial Impact:Funds are available in the TIA budget account numbers 371-04- 1110-5212115/T13041219-5212115: Druid Park Improvements (Walton Way to Wrightsboro Road) in the amount of $328,581. Alternatives:1) Approve funding for the final design phases of the Design Consultant Services Agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates in the amount of $328,581 for the Druid Park Avenue Road Diet Project. 2) Do not approve.

(“Kimley-Horn” or “Consultant”) is pleased to submit this letter agreement (the “Agreement”) to the City of Augusta (“Client” or “the City”) for providing design services for the above referenced project. Project Understanding The existing signalized intersection of Laney Walker Boulevard at Druid Park Avenue is located adjacent to Paine College inside the city limits of Augusta, Georgia approximately 0.3 miles south of Walton Way. Laney Walker Boulevard terminates at Druid Park Avenue and consists of two westbound through lanes (acting as dual left turn lanes), one eastbound through lane (that quickly widens into a second eastbound through lane), a narrow flush median, and a channelized, stop- controlled westbound right turn lane. Druid Park Avenue consists of two northbound and two southbound through lanes with no median south of the intersection with Laney Walker Boulevard and one northbound and one southbound through lane north of the intersection. The signal also controls Mulherin Street, a two-lane local road, which parallels Laney Walker Boulevard to the south. Both Laney Walker Boulevard and Druid Park Avenue have urban shoulders with header curb and sidewalk, except for the southern shoulder of Laney Walker Boulevard which has no sidewalk. Both facilities have a mixture of residential, commercial, and educational land usages and are posted at 35 MPH. Druid Park Avenue is approximately 0.7 miles in length terminating at Wrightsboro Road to the south and Walton Way to the north, both of which are signalized intersections. The intersection of Druid Park Avenue at Central Avenue, approximately 0.2 miles north of Wrightsboro Road, is also signalized. South of Central Avenue and north of McAnally Street, Druid Park Avenue consists of one northbound and one southbound through lane, both wide enough to allow for on-street parking. Attachment number 1 \nPage 1 of 17 Item # 27 Page 2 kimley-horn.com 2 Sun Court, Suite 450, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092 770 825 0744 Kimley-Horn has already coordinated with the Client on concept design and public involvement activities for the above, referenced project. The Client has requested that Kimley-Horn move forward with design services to include the conversion of the intersection of Laney Walker Boulevard at Druid Park Avenue from a traffic signal to a single-lane roundabout. Along the portion of Druid Park Avenue adjacent to Paine College, from just north of Central Avenue to McAnally Street, the project will consist of adding a center raised median, conversion of two general purpose lanes in each direction to one general purpose lane and one dedicated bike lane in each direction, replacement of existing header curb, closed system drainage, and sidewalks, with curb and gutter, new closed system drainage, and six-foot sidewalks. Lighting and landscaping on the shoulders are both anticipated in this corridor as are minor gravity walls to avoid impacts outside of the existing right-of-way corridor. The existing pedestrian activated traffic signal south of Laney Walker Boulevard will be replaced by a HAWK signal. No median break will be provided at Mulherin Street as the Client anticipates relocating this driveway from Druid Park Avenue to Laney Walker Boulevard. Kimley-Horn will design this driveway on the existing right-of-way segment at the intersection of Laney Walker Boulevard and Emmett Street. The removal of existing, mature trees within the right-of-way, except where requested to be retained by the Client, will be shown to be removed. The remaining segments of Druid Park Avenue, from Wrightsboro Road to Central Avenue and from McAnally Street to Walton Way, will consist of curb-to-curb milling and inlay of pavement with no change in laneage, other than the potential addition of sharrows/shared-use signage. The existing closed system drainage will be analyzed for spread capacity only – no pipe replacements are anticipated as part of this effort – and additional drainage structures may be required. With the exception of improving crosswalk ramps to ADA compliant versions, no improvements are anticipated to the shoulders, including no changes to curbing, driveways, sidewalks, landscaping, utilities, etc. Laney Walker Boulevard, will be slightly realigned to tie to the proposed roundabout location. This realignment will result in the removal of an existing building. Curb and gutter and sidewalks will be added to the road along with necessary closed system drainage. This project will utilize Transportation Investment Act (“TIA”) funding and will therefore be required to follow the Georgia Department of Transportation (“GDOT”) TIA Manual (current as of this agreement). Kimley-Horn’s understanding of this project is that it will be 100% TIA funded, locally let, and is not on or does not cross/impact the GDOT State Route System. The TIA Manual sets forth guidance on the process for developing these types of projects. Scope of Services Kimley-Horn will provide the services specifically set forth below. TASK 1 – CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT Upon Notice to Proceed from the Client, Kimley-Horn will prepare a project schedule in Microsoft Project (not in Primavera) and will team with Edwards-Pitman Environmental, Inc. to perform an ecology screening to verify the presence, if any, of wetlands, buffered state waters, etc. In addition, Attachment number 1 \nPage 2 of 17 Item # 27 Page 3 kimley-horn.com 2 Sun Court, Suite 450, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092 770 825 0744 Kimley-Horn will team with S&ME to perform a Phase I Environmental Study of the existing building structure in the northeast quadrant of Druid Park Avenue at Laney Walker Boulevard. The project concept report will be prepared by W.R. Toole Engineers, Inc. (“WRTE”) under a separate authorization. TASK 2 – DATABASE PREPARATION Upon Notice to Proceed from the Client, Kimley-Horn will team with Toole Surveying Company, Inc. (“TSC”) to perform topographic survey of the proposed project area. This area is defined as the existing right-of-way corridor along Druid Park Avenue from Wrightsboro Road to Walton Way, 100’ past the intersections at the signalized sideroads, and approximately 600’ along Laney Walker Boulevard. The survey will be performed per GDOT specifications and will be delivered in InRoads for design in MicroStation V8i. Storm and sanitary sewer lines will be located within the project area as well as above ground utility facilities, including existing traffic signal equipment. Trees with a caliper of 12” and above will be located. Property lines will be located as well. TSC will coordinate with CSRA Utility Marking to provide “spray locations,” though no direct location methods (including potholing) or subsurface utility exploration activities will occur. No formal Client review and approval is anticipated. TASK 3 – PRELIMINARY PLANS Upon the GDOT Chief Engineer’s approval of the Concept Report, completion of the database collection, and Notice to Proceed from the TIA Program Manager and Client; Kimley-Horn will proceed with preliminary plans design of the project. Plans will be designed in MicroStation V8i and any coordinate geometry work will be performed in InRoads. Kimley-Horn will coordinate with the Client for submission of plans to utility facility owners within the project limits. Kimley-Horn will coordinate with MTJ Engineers, Inc., who will utilize the topographic survey to generate the horizontal geometric design of the roundabout and approach tie-ins for incorporation into the design plans. Kimley-Horn will use MTJ’s horizontal alignments and layout as a beginning and advance the design through preliminary plans. Kimley-Horn will partner with WRTE to prepare full Erosion, Sedimentation, and Pollution Control (“ES&PC”) Plans as more than one acre of disturbance is predicted. In addition, WRTE will perform water quality volume calculations. Because the total additional impervious area may not exceed 5,000 square feet, no design of water quality feature(s) has been assumed – this will need to occur as additional services if needed. Staging plans are anticipated, but no off-site detours are under consideration. In addition, Kimley-Horn anticipates that landscaping plans, planting details, and lighting plans will be required for this project. Kimley-Horn will coordinate with Electrical Design Consultants, Inc. (“EDC”) to prepare the lighting plans for the roundabout area and the portion of Druid Park Avenue between Central Avenue and McAnally Street only. Kimley-Horn does not anticipate any environmentally sensitive areas and/or buffered waters within the project limits. Kimley-Horn will again coordinate with MTJ, who will perform a quality control review of the design plans, prior to submission to the Client. At the Client’s discretion, MTJ will perform an optional operational analysis of the proposed roundabout to determine expected operations under normal and event traffic conditions. Attachment number 1 \nPage 3 of 17 Item # 27 Page 4 kimley-horn.com 2 Sun Court, Suite 450, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092 770 825 0744 Kimley-Horn will team with S&ME, Inc. who will prepare a memo-style pavement evaluation, consisting of four sampling locations, intended for Client information only (no formal review or GDOT involvement is anticipated). Minor clearing may be required and it is assumed that cleared vegetation will not be removed from areas of pedestrian and vehicular travel. Minor gravity walls are anticipated, though no wall foundation investigations are required or included with this effort. Once preliminary plans are completed, Kimley-Horn will submit five (5) sets of plans to the Client for review. To complete the review process, the appropriate representatives from Kimley-Horn and WRTE will attend a Client-administered Preliminary Field Plan Review (“PFPR”) to review the plans and perform a site visit. Kimley-Horn will also provide formal responses to any Client comments. TASK 4 – PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Upon updating the plans per the Client PFPR comments, Kimley-Horn will revise the original concept layouts to incorporate any changes. Kimley-Horn representatives will attend a Client-administered public information session dry run and both Kimley-Horn and WRTE representatives will attend the actual public information session. It is not anticipated that public feedback will be sought. In addition three representatives from Kimley-Horn and one representative from WRTE will attend up to one stakeholder meeting, anticipated to occur with representatives from Paine College. At the Client’s discretion, MTJ will be available to prepare support materials for public involvement (i.e. 3- dimensional modeling). TASK 5 – RIGHT-OF-WAY PLANS Upon updating the plans per the Client PFPR comments, Kimley-Horn will prepare right-of-way plans and data tables for submission to the Client. It is anticipated that approximately six (6) parcels will be impacted. If necessary, Kimley-Horn will address Client comments and resubmit for approval. Kimley-Horn assumes that up to four rounds of formal right-of-way revisions will be necessary due to property owner negotiations and/or condemnations. Kimley-Horn will team with TSC to provide one round of right-of-way and easement staking services. No GDOT involvement or review is anticipated. TASK 6 – FINAL PLANS Kimley-Horn and WRTE will incorporate County and internal PFPR review comments as well as any changes resulting from right-of-way acquisition. Quantities will be verified and reported within the plans per the County standards, current as of this agreement. Again, Kimley-Horn will coordinate with MTJ, who will perform a quality control review of the final design plans, prior to submission to the Client and GDOT. As part of the submittal package of the field plan review (FPR) plans, which will occur at 80-85% completion, the quantities will be compiled into a construction cost estimate that will be provided to the Client and to GDOT. Kimley-Horn and WRTE will attend a GDOT FPR and provide responses to any comments received. Design plans will be revised per these comments and submitted, along with an updated construction cost estimate, to the Client for advertisement and construction. Kimley-Horn and WRTE will attend both a pre-bid meeting and a pre-construction meeting and assist with responses/requests for information. Shop drawings are not anticipated as part of this project. Attachment number 1 \nPage 4 of 17 Item # 27 Page 5 kimley-horn.com 2 Sun Court, Suite 450, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092 770 825 0744 As it is assumed that this project will result in the disturbance of more than one acre, WRTE will submit plans to the City of Augusta to be reviewed on behalf of the EPD. Any comments received from the City will be addressed and if necessary, revisions provided. One seven-day inspection, including a report documenting the inspection findings, will be conducted by WRTE at the appropriate time.

B. Messerly Contract Operations Department:Utilities Caption:Motion to approve the recommendation to exercise option to extend agreement between Augusta and ESG Operations, Inc. for a period of five years beginning January 1, 2015 and ending December 31, 2019. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee May 27, 2014) Background:Augusta entered into an agreement with ESG Operations, Inc. on December 16, 2009 for Operations, Management and Management Services. Section 7.1 of that agreement states that "The initial term of this Agreement shall be five (5) years commencing on January 1st, 2010. Thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed by Augusta for successive five (5) year terms subject to the mutual agreement of the parties to the terms and conditions of such renewal." ESG has offered the attached proposal for extending the current agreement for an additional five years. This proposal continues the current agreement terms with the exception of a change in the Management Fee which would decrease from 12.5% to 12.0%. In order to properly plan and budget for the future we need to determine the desire of the Commission regarding exercising the renewal option mentioned in agreement section 7.1. Analysis:We have had a good experience working with ESG under their current agreement. We have found them to be responsive to our needs and able to mobilize quickly to address equipment or operational issues at our facilities. They have consistently met the requirements of their agreement and have managed to accomplish this without any increase in their annual budget since 2010 (the first year of the current agreement). In addition, the average operating expenses over the first four years of the agreement have been approximately $225,000 below the approved budget. Financial Impact:Operations Contract cost of $5,504,558.00 from account 506043310-5211110. Collection System Assessment cost of $489,800.00 from account 506043410-5211110.Cover Memo Item # 28 Alternatives:The Commission could choose to not exercise the renewal option. Recommendation:We recommend that the agreement with ESG Operations, Inc. be renewed for a 5 year term. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: 506043310-5211110 & 506043410- 521111 REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Procurement. Law. Administrator.

This project is on the approved Band 1 list of Richmond County’s Transportation Investment Act of 2010 (aka, TIA, TSPLOST) projects. This supplement will also be for the design and coordination with utility companies and Georgia DOT, as requested by AED. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee May 27, 2014) Background:The River Watch Parkway Adaptive Signal Systems project will ultimately utilize state-of-the-art sensor technology, image processing, and artificial intelligence to automatically optimize local traffic signals and provides coordination of the system according to real-time traffic demand, thus, eliminating the need for static signal timing and coordination plans. The fiber optic communications is essential to the function of the system. Installation will result in reduced travel times and fuel usage for the general motoring public along one of the more traveled corridors in Richmond County. The extents of this project run along River Watch Parkway from Fury’s Ferry Road to River Shoals Drive. In June 2013, Augusta, Georgia approved the final design phases of the contract with LPA group for design of the River Watch Parkway at I-20 Corridor Project. The majority of the design work required for the installation of the Adaptive Signal System Project overlaps the Corridor Project and, therefore, it will be a cost-effective practice to supplement the LPA Group’s contract to provide design services for this project as well Analysis:Because a majority of the required design services overlap the River Watch Parkway at I-20 Corridor project, the purpose of this item is to supplement LPA Group’s contract in order to expand the scope to include the design services.

(No recommendation from Engineering Services Committee May 27, 2014) Background:In the solid waste collections contract that ended in May of 2013, the collection of two tires per resident each week was an included service. In the contract that began June 1, 2013, this provision was not included. This was traditionally both an under-utilized and an abused service, on top of being inefficient and expensive. Many residents did not place two tires out for collection, however, the tire shops and shade-tree mechanics that participated in the collection program often placed out many extra tires. Further, because so few people placed tires out for collection and they could not be mixed with any other type of trash according to Georgia rules for solid waste disposal; the contractors had to have a separate truck drive every road in Augusta each week looking for tires to collect. Since June 2013, ESD has tried a variety of approaches to collect tires. The department used internal staff to travel various areas of the county, contractors were used and paid an hourly rate, the vacant lot cutting and cleaning contractors, and free tire collection events were implemented each month. Analysis:Through the trial and error process described above, ESD has determined that the use of staff or contractors to travel the county each week is inefficient and expensive. However, the free tire collection events are typically well utilized with hundreds of tires dropped off each month. As such, ESD is proposing a hybrid approach to tire collection. The tire collection events will be going back out to bid for 2015, as the current bid award is only good through December 2014; but ESD is also preparing an annual bid item for the collection of tires. We are proposing to designate one week out of the month when residents can place tires at the curb for collection and an ESD contractor would come through and collect no more than four tires. This collection week would be advertised so that all property owners would be aware and so that ESD can schedule this work in between other services that are provided (such as street sweeping services and regular solid waste Cover Memo Item # 37 collections). In addition, ESD is meeting and working with Planning and Development management and staff to review and possibly update applicable ordinances. The goal is to hold tire purchasers, re-sellers, and other users accountable for the tires they possess; and to prevent the mishandling or dumping of used tires. Financial Impact:The financial impact is unknown at this time; however it is the opinion of the department that the annual bid methodology, with one week of collection per month, will control costs and also provide an adequate level of service to the residents. ESD anticipates the cost of this service to be in the ballpark of $30,000 per year. Alternatives: Recommendation:Receive as information.

Clerk of Commission Cover Memo Item # 37 Commission Meeting Agenda 6/3/2014 2:00 PM Environmental Services Department Update on Solid Waste Collection fees for the Urban Services District. Department:Environmental Services Caption:Environmental Services Department Update on Solid Waste Collection fees for the Urban Services District. (No recommendation from Engineering Services Committee May 27, 2014) Background:Prior to consolidation, the old city received solid waste collections. Those collections were paid for through the millage rate set by the city. In approximately late 2000 to early 2001, solid waste services became mandatory by the consolidated government. At that time, the Urban District (Old City) and the Suburban District (Old County) had not determined a way to consolidate into one taxing entity, and the government is still split into an Urban Tax District and a Suburban Tax district. This split methodology gave the Environmental Services Department grief in 2005 when fees needed to be raised as the department was operating at a loss for several years. Revenues had to be increased; however, the political will to raise taxes was not evident. Therefore, the department proposed a split fee system. In 2013 that fee structure was Urban paid its millage rate plus $115.50, and suburban paid $310.50. Mind you that there are approximately 13,000 units in Urban and approximately 50,000 units in suburban. This simply highlights that the all fee system comprises about 20% of all customers. This system has created issues over the years. As we developed methodologies for exempting locations from solid waste, in suburban the entire fee came off, while in urban, they still paid the millage rate whether service was rendered or not. Second, there are a variety of businesses, industry, and other properties which are supplementing the cost of solid waste services for the urban area, as they pay the millage and do not receive service, which is not happening in the suburban area. At the Commission meeting on June 4, 2013, the Resolution and policies regarding Solid Waste collection in Augusta were approved. This resolution coordinated with the change to one time per week trash collection, and the change in contractors and collection rules for those property owners in Augusta that participate in the solid waste and Cover Memo Item # 38 recyclables collection program. The resolution specifically addresses fees by saying, “WHEREAS, it has been determined by the Augusta Commissioners that there is a need to fund the ESD through a fee based system, where all property owners pay fees for services, in a similar fee based system, allowing for revenues for various ESD functions to be consolidated and collected through a single fee system.” The resolution further supports a universal fee structure when it adopted the initial policies for fees and exemptions, as well as “directs and authorizes the Director of Environmental Services to establish a billing system for the collection of fees and charges for solid waste and recycling collection services and other ESD functions, and said fees shall minimally cover the full cost of the ESD services and programs.” Additionally at that meeting, a policy that goes along with the Resolution which is applicable for this discussion is “Solid Waste Collection Fees”. This policy generally defines the types of services offered, the service levels which are available, as well as the customer’s options for service flexibility. This policy ties directly to the commissions contract approval, which included incentive based recycling, as well as a pay as you through concept. Simply put, the more you recycle, and/or the less you dispose of, offers the customer the opportunity to reduce the container sizes and the associated costs of service. Analysis:By moving to an all fee based system, eliminates confusion and the numerous calls each year that are generated by having two different fees for the same service. The citizens generally do not understand the difference between Old City and Old County this long after consolidation. Additionally, moving to an all fee system standardizes the fees. Residential waste collection would not be subsidized by commercial businesses and others in one part of the city and not the other. Further, when a millage system is used, the cost of service is based on the property value in the urban district, while the suburban district pays a standardized rate for services. This creates a direct inequity of the cost of services not only between urban and suburban, but also all the way down to an individual customer within the urban district. With the commission approving a contract with incentive based recycling, as well as a fee structure that promotes “pay as you through”, (the less waste you have, the less you could pay), having a split fee system truly magnifies the inequities of our current program. Should an urban customer reduce can sizes, they will get the reduced rate for service. However, when the value of the home is included, that discount could make all services provided by the government free, and to the contrary, when a home with a high value asks for a reduced service level they will only get the value of the fee adjustment, and will still be paying more for solid waste than others.

This resolution coordinated with the change to one time per week trash collection, and the change in contractors and collection rules for those property owners in Augusta that participate in the solid waste and recyclables collection program. The policies that go along with the Resolution which are applicable for this discussion are “Solid Waste Collection Fees” and “Solid Waste and Recycling Exemptions”. These two policies define the service types, fees, and qualifications to be released from services. The “Solid Waste Collection Fees” policy defines an Unoccupied Location as a “vacant or unoccupied residential unit, unimproved property or vacant lot”. It further states that to reclassify a residential unit as an Unoccupied Location, the property must be uninhabitable due to fire, flood, or natural disaster; meet the terms of the Mothball ordinance; be condemned; or the property has no dwelling. At this level of service the owner is entitled to receive weekly yard waste and bulky waste collection as an easy and effective means to maintain their property at a rate of $155.25 per year, or $12.93 per month. Analysis:The 2014 tax year is the first time this fee for Unoccupied Locations has been implemented. It has, however, highlighted the fact that the various qualifications for exemption from service need to be expanded. Currently, a customer can be released from services for one of the following reasons: the dwelling is 200+ feet from the right of way; a tract of land greater than 10 acres in size used for agricultural, forestry, or farming; or there is a high potential risk to safety or high potential to damage property. It does not include an exemption for undeveloped lots that are less than 10 acres in size. It is therefore the recommendation from ESD that an exemption be included for those properties that have no dwelling as of January 1 of the current tax year. This would go Cover Memo Item # 39 into effect for the 2014 tax year. This change would affect approximately 11,800 parcels out of 75,200, or 16% of the properties in Augusta. Further, this change would need to be implemented as soon as possible to provide adequate notice to the property owners and to provide ESD adequate time to amend the billing data prior to the digest being frozen at the end of July in preparation for the annual property tax statement mailing. Financial Impact:The financial impact will be sizeable to ESD, as this service was budgeted and approved for 2014. The impact will be a reduction in revenues of approximately $1.3M due to the department assuming roughly 8000 vacant lots would remain after exemptions were granted. Further, if this service is eliminated altogether, this changes the value of the solid waste collections contract for the contracted haulers – Advanced Disposal and Inland Services, who entered into an agreement with Augusta to provide collection services to these properties. For both contractors, this would directly impact their subcontractors – A1 Sanitation and Metropolitan Waste, as these companies purchased trucks and are servicing the yard waste and bulky waste routes each day. With potentially 8000 fewer collections each month, the amount the subcontractors would earn would decrease greatly. Alternatives:1. Approve the inclusion of an exemption option for those properties that have no dwelling as of January 1 of the current tax year. 2. Do not approve Recommendation:Approve the inclusion of an exemption option for those properties that have no dwelling as of January 1 of the current tax year.
