Arlington County, Virginia

CHAIRMAN’S CIP MESSAGE CIP

2017 – 2026

To the Citizens of Arlington County:

I am pleased to present the County Board’s Adopted FY 2017 – 2026 Capital Improvement Plan. The plan funds County capital projects and infrastructure of $2.8 billion and Arlington Public Schools’ (APS) adopted $510.29 million CIP, for a total of $3.3 billion in planned capital projects and infrastructure investment over the next decade for both County and Schools.

This plan provides funding to address the challenges posed by the fact that our community is growing. We will make strategic investments in our schools, transportation, land acquisition and technology. That means APS will have the resources it needs to build new schools and expand existing ones. We will improve bus service across the County and build a premium bus service connecting Columbia Pike and the Pentagon City-Crystal City corridor. At the same time, we will invest more in land acquisition, improve customer service by investing in technology and fund the replacement of the aging Lubber Run community center.

Highlights of the Adopted CIP include:

• Arlington Public Schools: Full support for APS's $510.29 million plan to address growing enrollment, including full funding of its 2016 $138.83 million referenda request which addresses capacity expansion.

• Metro and Transportation: $1.6 billion in extensive investments to ensure safety, accessibility and efficiency for commuters on bike, foot, car and transit over ten years. These include the County’s continued $30 million commitment to Metro over the next two years. The CIP lays out a plan to fund the recently adopted Transit Development Plan approach for new, modified and expanded bus service over the next decade, including premium bus service that will offer a one-seat ride from the west end of Columbia Pike to Potomac Yard. It also funds the Neighborhood Complete Streets Program and expands the streetlight management plan. The County will also provide a workplan to include schedule, scope of work and additional funding needs for an update of the Bike Element of the Master Transportation Plan.

• Lubber Run Community Center: Planned funding includes $46.5 million in new bonds for design and construction in the 2016 and 2018 referenda for replacement of the County's aging community center. After the referendum is considered by the voters, the County will undertake a community engagement process on the arrangement of the indoor uses of the facility and the outdoor amenities, to begin before the end of 2016.

A - 1

• Fire Station 8: $1.12 million is included in the 2016 referendum to support the design and planning efforts to replace Fire Station 8 at its current location on Lee Highway. Construction funding is anticipated to be included in the 2018 referenda request.

• Court Square Sector Plan – geotechnical survey: As part of the Courthouse Square Sector Plan Addendum adopted in 2015, the County will take the first step of performing a geotechnical survey for underground parking under the Square that will inform future project design and Sector Plan implementation. This work is funded with available and eligible developer contributions generated from Courthouse site plan projects such as the Navy League building.

• Technology: Provides for a new on-line payment portal and replacement of the tax assessment and collection system.

• Neighborhood Conservation: Continues to fund this neighborhood-based program that improves neighborhoods, with $12 million per referenda.

• Land acquisition: Increases funding over last CIP to $3 million per referenda.

• Joint County School project: Funding of a parking structure and other improvements at the new elementary school at the Thomas Jefferson site.

• Longer term projects: Funds the acquisition of the Buck property (a six-acre site on North Quincy Street), and possibility of improvements needed at potential future acquisitions through the Virginia Hospital Center. Invests over the medium-to-long term to meet new public safety technology and regional interoperability requirements. Anticipates planning beginning in 2022 for a community facilities study for the Central Library/Quincy Park area to maximize existing land while preserving and maximizing open space.

Maintaining existing infrastructure –funding several areas of basic infrastructure:

• Parks and Facilities: Continues the County's reinvestment in playgrounds, courts, fields and essential components of buildings such as HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) and roofing systems. Jennie Dean Park design will begin when the Four Mile Run Valley Initiative is complete. Includes funding to expand the gymnastics program at the Barcroft Sports & Fitness Center, and funding for a new program which provides $1 million every two years to modernize off-street trails. Existing funds for Long Bridge Park will be used to design and construct a reduced aquatics building program and complete the 10.5 acres of park development and esplanade. Additional funding is included in fiscal years 2023-2024 to plan and design a fourth synthetic field and parking structure at the park. The County will work with the National Park Service, Virginia Department of Transportation and other partners involved in the current planning effort to modernize and expand the Long Bridge so as to include a bridge connection between the Long Bridge Park Esplanade and the Mt. Vernon Trail.

A - 2

• Paving – A $5 million increase in paving over the next two years, bringing the total to $24 million over two years.

• Water/sewer system infrastructure – Water delivery, sanitary sewer collection and wastewater treatment to provide high quality services andproducts and stormwater management investments to reduce potential stormwater impacts to public health, safety and property.

• Technology – Continued re-investment in technology to replace and support basic County functions such as PCs, servers, network capabilitiesetc. as well as critical public safety equipment including defibrillators, fire alerting system, mobile and portable radios, mobile data computersand fire vehicle refreshment.

CIP funding comes from a variety of sources, including bonds, pay-as-you go funding, dedicated taxes for transportation & stormwater investments, and water-sewer user fees. A significant portion of the plan comes from general obligation bonds which are authorized by the Arlington County Board and subject to approval by Arlington County voters.

The adopted CIP is within the County’s debt and financial policies, which are critical to maintaining the County’s triple-Aaa bond ratings.

The Board truly appreciates the input from commissions, advisory groups, other members of the public as well as County staff in developing this CIP.

Arlington County, Virginia

FINANCIAL AND DEBT MANAGEMENT POLICIES CIP

2017 − 2026

The County’s financial and debt management policies guide the County’s capital investments, debt issuance and long-term financial management. The policies are generally based on bond rating agency guidance and criteria for highly rated jurisdictions and best practices in local government finance. The policies were last updated in 2014 as part of the Adopted FY 2015 – FY 2024 CIP. Budgeting, Planning & Reserves:

• Confirms the Operating Reserve funding requirement at five percent of the General Fund budget and adds a timeframe for replenishment in the event the Operating Reserve is utilized.

• Adds a new economic & revenue stabilization contingent with a minimum balance of $3 million to address short-term revenue and economic disruptions. This codifies existing practice of recent years.

Debt Management

• Revises the ratio of net tax-supported debt to full market value of all real property in the County to three percent instead of four percent over the ten-year planning period. This change is based on comparison to other similarly-rated jurisdictions and rating agency criteria.

• Revises the policy regarding variable rate debt to exclude any hedging mechanism (e.g., a swap) in calculation of the maximum amount of variable rate debt the County may issue. The current policy is twenty percent of total debt outstanding; that threshold remains unchanged. This change reflects the County’s current conservative practices in regards to variable rate debt and derivatives; the County’s current variable rate debt (for the Ballston Garage) is less than 1% of the total debt portfolio and the County has no derivatives.

• Adds a policy regarding moral obligation requiring evaluation of risk and financial stress testing before providing moral obligation support to any external entity. Infrequently, the County will provide its “moral obligation” support to debt issued by partners, including regional public safety agencies and affordable housing partners. This change codifies existing practice.

Special Revenue / Enterprise Funds:

• Added policies for Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Funds. The County has two tax increment funds: 1) Crystal City – Potomac Yard – Pentagon City; and 2) Columbia Pike.

A - 4

o Combined assessed value of TIFs should not exceed 25% of total County assessed value o Percentage of incremental TIF revenue to be used for TIF purposes should be lesser than or equal to 40% o Prudently balance PAYG vs. leveraging o If TIF is leveraged, minimum debt service coverage of 2.0 times and establishment of appropriate reserves o An operating reserve of 10% of budgeted revenue will be maintained

Budgeting, Planning and Reserves

Balanced Budget: Arlington County will adopt an annual General Fund budget in which the budgeted revenues and expenditures are equal (a balanced budget). Any one-time revenues will be used for one-time, non-recurring expenses such as capital, equipment, special studies, debt reduction, and reserve contributions. Long-Term Financial Planning: The County will annually develop a six year forecast of General Fund revenues, expenditures and will maintain a biennially updated, ten-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The ten-year forecast will incorporate projected reserve levels and impact of the CIP on the County’s debt ratios. General Fund Operating Reserve: An Operating Reserve will be maintained at no less than five percent of the County’s General Fund budget. The Operating Reserve shall be shown as a designation of total General Fund balance. Appropriations from the Operating Reserve may only be made by a vote of the County Board to meet a critical, unpredictable financial need. Any draw on the operating reserve will be replenished within the subsequent three fiscal years. Self-Insurance Reserve: The County will also maintain a self-insurance reserve equivalent to approximately one to two months’ claim payments based on a five-year rolling average. Economic & Revenue Stabilization Contingent: Consistent with past practice, the County will maintain an economic & revenue stabilization contingent to address revenue declines and local or regional economic stress. Use of contingent monies will only be used at the recommendation of the County Manager and approval by the County Board. The minimum amount of the contingent will be $3 million and will be revisited annually as part of the budget process. Any draw on the economic & revenue stabilization contingent will be replenished within the subsequent two fiscal years. General Fund General Contingent: Each year’s budget will include a General Fund General Contingent appropriation to be used to cover unforeseen expense items or new projects initiated after a fiscal year has begun. Funding may be allocated from this contingent only with County Board approval. Retirement System Funding: The County will use an actuarially accepted method of funding its pension system to maintain a fully-funded position. The County’s contribution to employee retirement costs will be adjusted annually as necessary to maintain full funding. If the County reaches its actuarial-required contribution (defined as County and employee contributions that when expressed as a percent of annual covered payroll are sufficient to accumulate assets to pay benefits when due), the County may reduce its contribution provided that the

A - 5

amount reduced from the annual actuarial requirement will only be used for one-time, non-recurring expenses in order to provide the ability to increase contributions as may be required by future market conditions. Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Funding: The County will use an actuarially accepted method of funding its other post-employment benefits to maintain a fully-funded position. The County’s contribution to other post-employment benefit costs will be adjusted annually as necessary to maintain full funding. If the County reaches its actuarial-required contribution (defined as County and employee contributions that when expressed as a percent of annual covered payroll are sufficient to accumulate assets to pay benefits when due), the County may reduce its contribution provided that the amount reduced from the annual actuarial requirement will only be used for one-time, non-recurring expenses in order to provide the ability to increase contributions as may be required by future market conditions.

Capital Improvement Plan

1. The County Manager will biennially submit a ten year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to the County Board. The CIP will address

all known facility and infrastructure needs of the County, including the needs of the Arlington County Public Schools. 2. The CIP shall include a detailed description of each capital project, identifying every source of funding, including pay-as-you-go

(PAYG), bond financing, and master lease financing. The source of funding will largely be determined based on the useful life of the project. Bond-funded projects will typically have a useful life at least as long as the period over which the bonds will be repaid (generally twenty years). Master lease-financed projects will generally have useful lives of three to ten years and typically include furniture, equipment, rolling stock and technology purchases. PAYG funds provide greater flexibility and will be appropriated annually from general fund revenues.

3. Each project budget shall identify the financial impact on the operating budget, if any. 4. In general, capital projects estimated to cost $100,000 or more should be included in the CIP, including technology and equipment

purchases. 5. The County will balance the use of debt financing sources against the ability to utilize PAYG funding for capital projects. While

major capital facility projects will generally be funded through bonds, the County will attempt to maintain an appropriate balance of PAYG vs. debt, particularly in light of the County’s debt capacity and analysis of maintenance capital needs. As part of each biennial CIP process, the County will conduct a comprehensive assessment of its maintenance capital needs.

6. The CIP will include an analysis of the impact the CIP has on the County’s debt capacity, debt ratios and long-term financial plan. 7. Voter referenda to authorize general obligation bonds should only be presented to voters when the analysis of the County’s debt

capacity demonstrates the ability of the County to fund the debt service for the bonds based on the County’s “Financial and Debt Service Policies.” Absent a compelling reason to do otherwise, the County should have the capacity to initiate construction projects within the two-year period before the next bond referendum. There should also be a demonstrated capability for the County to complete any project approved by referendum within the 8-year time period mandated under state law for sale of authorized bonds.

A - 6

The term “County” in this specific policy includes the Arlington County Government and any entity that receives bond funding from the County (such as the Arlington County Public Schools and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority).

Debt Management

The County will prudently use debt instruments, including general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, industrial development authority (IDA) revenue bonds, and master lease financing in order to provide re-investment in public infrastructure and to meet other public purposes, including inter-generational tax equity in capital investment. The County will adhere to the following debt affordability criteria (excluding overlapping and self-supporting debt). 1. The ratio of net tax-supported debt service to general expenditures should not exceed ten percent, within the ten-year projection. 2. The ratio of net tax-supported debt to full market value should not exceed three percent, within the ten-year projection. 3. The ratio of net tax-supported debt to income should not exceed six percent, within the ten-year projection. 4. Growth in debt service should be sustainable and consistent with the projected growth of revenues. Debt service growth over the

ten year projection should not exceed the average ten year historical revenue growth. 5. The term and amortization structure of County debt will be based on an analysis of the useful life of the asset(s) being financed and

the variability of the supporting revenue stream. The County will attempt to maximize the rapidity of principal repayment where possible. In no case will debt maturity exceed the useful life of the project.

6. The County will refund debt when it is in the best financial interest of the County to do so. When a refunding is undertaken to

generate interest rate cost savings, the minimum aggregate present value savings will be three percent of the refunded bond principal amount.

Variable Rate Debt 1. Variable rate debt exposure should not exceed twenty percent of total outstanding debt. 2. Debt service on variable rate bonds will be budgeted at a conservative rate. 3. Before issuing variable rate bonds, the County will determine how potential spikes in the debt service will be funded. 4. Before issuing any variable rate bonds, the County will determine the impact of the bonds on the County’s total debt capacity under

various interest rate scenarios; evaluate the risk inherent in the County’s capital structure, giving consideration to both the County’s assets and its liabilities; and develop a method for budgeting for debt service.

A - 7

Moral Obligation Debt or Support On an infrequent basis, the County provides its “moral obligation” support for partners, including regional public safety agencies and affordable housing partners, among others. A moral obligation exists when the County Board has made a commitment to support the debt of another entity to prevent a potential default. The County’s moral obligation will only be authorized after an evaluation of the risk to the County’s balance sheet and stress testing of the financial assumptions underlying the proposed project.

Derivatives Interest rate swaps and options (Swaps or Derivatives) are appropriate management tools that can help the County meet important financial objectives. Properly used, these instruments can help the County increase its financial flexibility, provide opportunities for interest rate savings or enhanced investment yields, and help the County reduce its interest rate risk through better matching of assets and liabilities. The County must determine if the use of any Swap is appropriate and warranted given the potential benefit, risks, and objectives of the County. 1. The County may consider the use of a derivative product if it achieves one or more of the following objectives:

Provides a specific benefit not otherwise available; Produces greater than expected interest rate savings or incremental yield over other market alternatives; Results in an improved capital structure or better asset/liability matching.

2. The County will not use derivative products that are speculative or create extraordinary leverage or risk; lack adequate liquidity;

provide insufficient price transparency; or are used as investments. 3. The County will only do business with highly rated counterparties or counterparties whose obligations are supported by highly rated

parties. 4. Before utilizing a Swap, the County, its financial advisor and legal counsel shall review the proposed Swap and outline any associated

considerations. Such review shall be provided to the Board and include analysis of potential savings and stress testing of the proposed transaction; fixed versus variable rate and swap exposure before and after the proposed transaction; maximum net termination exposure; and legal constraints.

5. Financial transactions using Swaps or other derivative products used in lieu of a fixed rate debt issue should generate greater projected

savings than the typical structure used by the County for fixed rate debt. 6. The County will limit the total notional amount of derivatives to an amount not to exceed twenty percent of total outstanding debt. 7. All derivatives transactions will require County Board approval.

A - 8

Special Revenue / Enterprise Funds

It is the general policy of the County to avoid designation of discretionary funds in order to maintain maximum financial flexibility. The County may, however, create dedicated funding sources when there are compelling reasons based on state law or policy objectives, as described below. The Utilities Fund was created as a self-sustaining, fee-based enterprise fund under state code to support and maintain development of the County’s water and sewer infrastructure. The Transportation Capital Fund was adopted pursuant to state legislation for new transportation funding. The Stormwater Management Fund was adopted in lieu of a self-supporting, user fee-based enterprise fund. The CPHD Development Fund was created as a self-sustaining, fee-based enterprise fund. Tax Increment Funds were established to support redevelopment and preservation objectives associated with the County’s adoption of master plans, (e.g., the Crystal City Sector Plan adopted in 2010 and the Columbia Pike Neighborhoods Plan adopted in 2013).

Utilities Fund 1. The County will annually develop a six year forecast of projected water consumption, revenue, operating expenditures, reserve

requirements and capital needs for the Utilities Fund. The six year forecast will show projected water-sewer rate increases over the planning period.

2. The County will implement water-sewer rate increases in a gradual manner, avoiding spike increases whenever possible. 3. The County will meet or exceed all requirements of any financing agreements or trust indentures. 4. The Utilities Fund will maintain a reserve equivalent to three months’ operations & maintenance expenses. The reserve may be used

to address emergencies and unexpected declines in revenue. If utilized, the reserve will be replenished over a three year period to the minimum reserve level. This reserve is in addition to any financing agreement-required debt service reserve funds.

5. The Utilities Fund will maintain debt service coverage of at least 1.25 times on all debt service obligations. 6. The Utilities Fund will be self-supporting.

Transportation Capital Fund 1. New revenue shall not be used to supplant existing transportation funding commitments, and capital investments shall be compliant

with state law restrictions on non-supplanting and maintenance of effort requirements. 2. Operating program enhancements (outside base program) that clearly document transportation benefits may be eligible for support

from the Transportation Capital Fund. A - 9

3. No more than three to five percent of annual funding should be used for project administration, indirect & overhead costs to support

capital projects. 4. A reserve equivalent to ten to twenty percent of annual budgeted revenue will be established. 5. A five to ten year financial plan and model will be developed that integrates project cashflow forecasts, revenue projections, and

financial / debt management policies and will factor in other non-County funding sources, including federal, state, regional, and private funding.

6. The County will prudently balance the use of new transportation funding sources between pay-as-you-go funding and leveraging

through new bond issuance. Use of leveraging will be dependent on project size, cash flow, and timing projections. 7. If the County chooses to issue debt supported by dedicated transportation funding sources, such debt will be structured to be self-

supporting and will not count against the County’s general tax supported obligation debt ratios or capacity. Debt service coverage on such debt will range from 1.10 to 1.50 times, depending on the type of debt issued. The term on such bonds will not exceed the average useful life of the assets financed, and amortization will be structured to match the supporting revenue stream.

8. The Transportation Capital Fund will be self-supporting.

Tax Increment Funds 1. The intended use of TIF monies will be specified at the time of TIF creation; changes or additional uses will be determined as part

of the annual budget process. 2. The combined assessed value of TIF areas will not exceed 25 percent of the County’s total assessed valuation. As of January 1, 2014,

existing TIF assessed valuation totaled 22 percent of County-wide assessed valuation. 3. The percent of TIF revenue available for the intended uses within a TIF area will be established at the creation of the TIF and will

be less than or equal to 40 percent. This percent will be evaluated annually as part of the budget process. 4. The County will prudently balance the use of PAYG funding and leveraging through TIF bond issuances. Use of leveraging will be

dependent on project type, size, cashflow and timing projections. Leveraging will only be used for capital projects that meet useful life and other requirements for bond issuance.

5. If the County leverages TIF revenue on its own behalf, it will target a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 2.0 times and establish

an appropriate level of debt service reserves and / or other contingencies.

A - 10

6. The County will establish additional policies pertaining to the leverage of TIF revenue by a private development entity prior to any such issuance.

7. A reserve equivalent to ten percent of annual budgeted revenue will be established.

Stormwater Fund 1. The County will annually develop a six year projection of stormwater operating and capital expenses. 2. The County will prudently balance the use of new stormwater funding sources between pay-as-you-go funding and leveraging through

new bond issuance. Use of leveraging will be dependent on project size, cashflow, and timing projections. If debt is issued for stormwater projects, it will generally follow the debt issuance guidelines contained in this policy.

3. The Stormwater Fund will maintain a reserve equivalent to three months’ expenses. 4. Stormwater financial policies will be reviewed as part of the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit renewal cycle

(every five years). 5. The Stormwater Fund will be self-supporting.

CPHD Development Fund

1. A contingent reserve will be established equivalent to thirty percent of the Fund’s total operating budget based on the fiscal year. This amount is equivalent to three to four months of annual operating expenditures. The reserve may be used to address emergencies and unexpected declines in revenue only after authorization from the County Board.

2. The CPHD Development Fund will be self-supporting.

ARLINGTON COUNTY, VIRGINIA

County Board Agenda Item Meeting of July 19, 2016

DATE: July 15, 2016 SUBJECT: Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 - 2026 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Adoption C. M. RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt the Fiscal Year 2017 – 2026 Capital Improvement Plan as amended by County Board direction included in Attachment A and B.

ISSUES: This is a request for County Board consideration of how much capital investment can the County afford during the next 10 year planning period and how should that capacity be allocated among community priorities. SUMMARY: The proposed CIP, as revised by County Board direction, provides a 10 year plan for investment in County and School infrastructure and assets, totaling $3.3 billion. Funding sources for the CIP include federal and state grants, bonds, pay-as-you-go (PAYG) funding, and dedicated funding sources such as water-sewer revenues and dedicate transportation taxes. BACKGROUND: The Capital Improvement Plan is one of the most significant planning processes for Arlington County and Arlington Public Schools. This plan identifies the immediate as well as longer-term capital needs of the community. The current CIP covers a ten year period from FY 2017 – FY 2026, and is primarily a planning document, and includes both County government and Schools project plans. As such, the CIP is subject to amendment and updating as the needs of the community change and become better known, and the proposed projects move closer to funding and final approval. Staff monitors changes in the community to be able to take advantage of opportunities that arise in scheduling and funding capital improvements in conjunction with private sector development and redevelopment. As priorities change and opportunities arise, staff reassesses the County's capital improvement plan and proposes changes that will affect the timing and funding of projects. Prior to the development of the County Manager’s Proposed FY 2017 – FY 2026 CIP, staff held three CIP public forums as well as posted an online forum via the County’s Open Arlington, to solicit and discuss CIP priorities for the ten year CIP. Since the release of the proposed CIP in

57.

A - 12

- 2 -

May 2016, there have been five County Board work sessions, including a joint County and Schools CIP worksession, multiple commission briefings, a CIP public hearing, and extensive community input. DISCUSSION: The County Board held its final wrap-up worksession on July 12. The County Board provided preliminary direction on several topics including:

• Scope for the Lubber Run Community Center project, which is proposed to be included on the November 2016 bond referenda

• Scope for the Long Bridge Aquatics & Fitness Facility and ten acre park addition, which will be funded with previously approved allocations

• Addition of planning funds in 2023-2024 for the fourth synthetic field and related improvements at Long Bridge Park

The County Board will provide final written direction on follow-up CIP actions to the County Manager as part of CIP adoption on July 19. This will also include direction on the permanent location of the new Fire Station 8. The County Board revised the proposed CIP as shown in the following table which summarizes the changes by category.

million over two years in FY 2023 – FY 2024 to facilitate advance planning & design of the fourth synthetic field and parking structure at Long Bridge Park (Attachment A). Construction funding will be considered as part of future CIPs. Transportation Program revisions from the Proposed CIP reflect changes in program costs and funding sources (Attachment B) as a result of various actions since the CIP was proposed. These actions are as follows.

1. Shortly after the May 2016 release of the Proposed CIP, the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) met in June 2016 and approved the state funding of Smart Scale (formerly called HB 2) for projects that would provide roadway improvements, transit capacity expansion and transportation demand management (TDM). The projects that were approved for Arlington include $10 million for Ballston metrorail station west entrance, $4.5 million for ART Service restructuring and expansion, specifically Metrobus 22 to ART 81 and $0.5 million for Arlington TDM strategies serving I-66, specifically the Mobile Commuter Store. The new Smart Scale funding will secure the resources needed for these projects, thus reduce the need to apply for NVTA regional funds as well as state funds that were planned to be requested in the proposed CIP as well as freeing up future PAYG and HB2313 local funds for other projects. The Smart Scale funds of $0.5M for the commuter store program is more than the $0.35M planned in the proposed CIP, resulting in a net increase of $0.15 million for this program.

2. The transitway extension to Pentagon City was planned in the previous CIP, in conjunction with the streetcar, to be completed in FY 2020. In the current CIP, it is continued as a standalone project with anticipated completion in FY 2022. Based on community feedback, staff recommends acceleration of the schedule for a FY 2021 target completion date. This can be achieved by planning HB2313 regional funds towards the project which were freed up from the new Smart Scale funds. Accelerating the project will reduce project costs by approximately $0.8 million due to the one year of forgone inflation.

3. The Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA) held a meeting on July 14, 2016 and approved the FY 2017 projects to be funded with NVTA regional funds. The County’s proposed CIP assumed regional funding for the Bus Bay Expansion-East Falls Church Metro Station project and Capital Bikeshare; however, regional funds were not approved. The revisions to the proposed CIP include funding these projects instead with HB2313 local funds.

4. The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) requires grantees of state transit funding to prepare and officially adopt a major update to the grantee’s Transit Development Plan every six years. At the recent July 16, 2016 board meeting the FY 2017- FY 2026 Transit Development Plan (TDP) was adopted and emphasized increased bus frequencies, more late night and weekend service, better north-south connections within the County, and a new Premium Transit Network connecting Skyline to Crystal City via Columbia Pike. The projects affected are the ART fleet expansion, ART fleet and equipment replacement, ART fleet rehabilitation and major repairs and the Columbia

A - 14

- 4 -

Pike transit stations. The combined effect is an increase of $2.1 million over the proposed CIP, supported by increased federal and state funds and HB2313 local funds.

5. After the cancellation of the streetcar, the transportation funds on hand, from FY 2015 and FY 2016, were put on hold and held as fund balance until directed by the board. The revisions to the proposed CIP reflect using the fund balance before applying new sources for the affected projects (see Attachment A).

6. Additional changes to the Proposed CIP are of an administrative nature, such as correcting mathematical and typographical errors and do not affect the overall CIP.

The Arlington Public Schools adopted FY 2017 – FY 2026 CIP totals $510.3 million and will be reflected in the summary tables as part of the County’s adopted FY 2017 – FY 2026 CIP. The $510.3 million includes funding for a new middle school at the Stratford site, a new school at the Wilson site, a new elementary school at the Jefferson site as well as other investments with the greatest priority at the high school level and second greatest priority at the elementary school level. FISCAL IMPACT: The CIP complies with the County Board’s debt policies, resulting in projected debt levels that are consistent with the County’s triple-AAA bond ratings.

County Board Guidance & Notes to Accompany the Adopted FY 2017 – 2026 Capital Improvement Plan

1. Fire Station 8 • The County Board directs the County Manager to begin the design and

planning efforts to rebuild Fire Station 8 as a modern 4-bay fire station at its current location on Lee Highway. Design funding is included in the 2016 bond referenda request, with construction funding anticipated to be included in the 2018 referenda request. Additionally, the Manager is directed to:

- By the end of the calendar year, identify possible locations for a temporary fire station facility with a recommendation for a preferred option. Criteria in making this recommendation should include:

o Not degrading the current response time and service

delivery o Costs for the temporary facility and any use of non-

County owned land o Schedule for securing a temporary site and constructing

the temporary facility

- By the end of the calendar year, identify possible locations to permanently relocate the fueling station currently located at the Lee Highway site with a recommendation for a preferred option. Criteria in making this recommendation should include:

o Service delivery standards – site location in North

Arlington; providing 24x7 availability of gasoline and Diesel fuel, with space to accommodate all fire vehicles and largest County service vehicles. The Manager will evaluate commercial fueling options as well as placing on County-owned land

o Comparative capital and operating costs for relocation to County-owned land vs. use of commercial facilities;

o Schedule for securing a site and constructing the facility, to be available prior to start of reconstruction of FS 8 at the existing site.

- Based on the results of this analysis, funding options for the

temporary fire station & permanent fueling station will be presented in either the FY 2018 operating budget or the next

A - 20

CIP. Potential permanent new uses of the larger 26th and Old Dominion parcel shall be considered within a county-wide public facilities siting process to occur in calendar years 2016 and 2017, with master planning of the parcel to follow.

2. Lubber Run Community Center

• The County Board confirms the scope for the Lubber Run Community Center project that was presented at the April 2016 worksession here. This includes the following key items:

- Build up to four stories to enable more green space - Build underground parking to enable more green space - Include a gymnasium - Relocate the Culpepper Garden Senior Center - Continue the DPR preschool program - Consolidate existing DPR staff located at Lubber Run and DPR

staff located at 3700 South Four Mile Run to the new Lubber Run for the Sports and Recreation Unit. Though the number of County staff working at the site will increase, the office use should remain subservient to the community center use in form and function.

• The County Manager will undertake a community engagement process

on the arrangement of the indoor uses of the facility and the outdoor amenities, to begin before the end of 2016 (after the referendum is considered by the voters.)

3. Long Bridge Aquatics & Fitness Facility & Park

• The County Board confirms the scope for the Long Bridge Aquatics & Fitness Facility and Park that was presented at the April 2016 worksession here and is within existing available funding. This includes the following key items in the revised scope:

- Reduce from three major bodies of water to two and adjust the

building size accordingly - Combine teaching pool and family pool into one space - Provide health and fitness space - Support the three core program elements

o One community room o 2 wet-classrooms o Approximately 300 spectator seats or as building design

dictates o Appropriate facility administration & locker facilities

A - 21

3

- Complete the 10.5 acre park

• The County Manager will report back in fall on any partnership or

sponsorship opportunities that could be realized and how such partnerships could impact scope and / or funding plans, including both construction and operating costs. The Long Bridge Park Advisory Committee will also provide its input into any partnership and sponsorship opportunities as part of this process. As part of discussions with potential partners and sponsors, the County Manager will pursue, where feasible, a balance between offsetting operating and / or capital costs associated with the current project scope and adding new amenities.

• The County Manager will undertake a community engagement process

on the design of the facility once the project delivery method (e.g., construction manager at risk or design-build) has been determined and the design team has been selected.

4. Fourth Field at Long Bridge Park and Bridge Connection to the Mt. Vernon

Trail

• Additional PAYGO funding of $2.5 million is added in 2023 – 2024 to facilitate advance planning & design of the fourth synthetic field and parking structure at Long Bridge Park. Construction funding will be considered as part of future CIPs.

• Direct the Manager to aggressively work with the National Park Service, VDOT and other partners involved in the current planning effort to modernize and expand the Long Bridge so as to include a bridge connection between the Long Bridge Park Esplanade and the Mt. Vernon Trail.

5. Master Transportation Plan - Bike Element

• Consistent with the direction provided to the County Manager at

adoption of the FY 2017 Operating Budget: in Fall 2016, provide a workplan, schedule and scope of work and details on additional funding needed – and recommendations for sources of those funds – for an update of the Bike Element of the Master Transportation Plan. The Bike Element Update will begin in the second half of FY 2017, provided that the aforementioned funding is made available. Based upon the update of the Bike Element of the MTP, funds may need to be added to the next CIP to move forward on priority projects.

6. Court Square Sector Plan- geotechnical survey

A - 22

4

As discussed in the Implementation Guidance in the Courthouse Square Sector Plan Addendum adopted in 2015: As a first step, undertake a geotechnical survey for underground parking under the Square that will inform future project design and Sector Plan implementation. The Manager will also report back on the proposed scope and timeline for future parking analysis to be informed by updated estimates of future development and site plan submissions. This work shall be funded with available and eligible developer contributions generated from Courthouse site plan projects (in particular the Navy League building)

Attachment B includes the proposed bond questions and explanations as they would appear in informational publications distributed by the County at polling places, other County facilities, and on the County’s website.

BALLOT LAYOUT It is recommended that the following four bond referenda questions be on one or more rows or windows on the voting machines in the following order:

A - 25

- 3 -

a. Metro and Transportation b. Local Parks & Recreation c. Community Infrastructure d. Arlington Public Schools

BACKGROUND: The County Government’s proposed bond totals are derived from a compilation of individual projects contained in the adopted CIP. These projects are classified into separate categories. If the bond referenda questions are approved by the voters, the County is legally prohibited from reallocating funding from one referenda category to another. Within the referenda categories, however, the County Board may make changes to specific projects; this flexibility is necessary because of potential rapid changes in construction pricing or other uncontrollable factors. The County Board also has the option of issuing a lesser amount of bonds than that approved by the voters or revising the specific projects, within the proposed authorizing language, to be funded with bond proceeds. Attachment B is a draft of the bond questions and explanations that would appear in informational publications. This information is also provided at voter registration sites, posted at each individual polling place and the County’s website. The bond referenda language was prepared in consultation with bond counsel. During the CIP process, a significant amount of community input was sought. During the CIP development and consideration process, staff held three CIP Public Forums on April 4, 7, and 13, met with Board-appointed Commissions and Committees, and provided information at four County Board work sessions and a joint County-Schools work session. Additionally, a CIP Public Hearing was held on June 22, 2016. The adopted CIP will be published in hard copy and will be available on the County website later this summer. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated impact on the County’s General Fund from the proposed bond financing plan included in the adopted CIP and the proposed referenda for the next two fiscal years is shown below. It should be noted that the amount of debt service to be budgeted in FY 2018 and FY 2019 will be determined after future project cash flow needs (and thus actual bond issue amounts) are completed. The table below also includes all outstanding and future subject-to-appropriation debt supported by the General Fund. In addition to debt service costs, certain new projects in the CIP and referenda will result in increased operating costs. Additional information on these costs can be found in the CIP document on the County’s website.

IMPACT OF CAPITAL PROJECTS ON FUTURE GENERAL FUND BUDGETS CIP

2017 − 2026

The FY 2017 – 2026 CIP recognizes that capital projects, particularly the opening of new capital facilities, impact future years’ budgets. Each project page includes a section on anticipated operating cost impact as appropriate for the specific circumstances of the project. The following list summarizes the operating cost impacts of major projects underway and those that are included in the out years of the proposed CIP. It should be noted that this list is not intended to be comprehensive (it does not reflect operating costs associated with smaller projects) and that, especially for projects that are not yet underway but are planned for out years, operating cost estimates are very preliminary. The table below the list lays out costs for major projects that are already underway and are expected to begin to impact operating budgets prior to FY 2019.

Projects Scheduled to Begin Operations Prior to FY 2019

Nauck Town Square – The Nauck Town Square is anticipated to be completed in mid to late FY2018. Operating costs in the range of $20,000 to $100,000 will be begin in FY18 and will be based on the final design.

Other Parks Projects – Operating costs for new park projects and programs coming on line in FY 2018 (Crystal City Parks & Open Space, Tyrol Hills Park, Park Land Acquisition, Synthetic Turf and, Trail Modernization) are projected to add $273,000 annually in staffing, cleaning, maintenance repair, landscape, and utilities. Although maintenance capital projects have minimal operating impact, parks undergoing major renovations can see increased operating costs due to new features coming online.

ART Fueling and Bus Wash Facility – The facility located at 2900 Jefferson Davis Highway will serve as a light duty maintenance facility for ART bus services and fleet and will include a bus wash and fueling station. The project is forecast to be completed in late February or early March 2017. This facility will require additional ongoing utility and maintenance costs.

Other Transportation Projects – Operating costs are projected for FY 2018 for other transportation projects such as street lighting, parking technologies, parking meter conversion, BikeArlington, bus stop and shelters and transit intelligent transportation systems. These operating costs will cover staffing to manage and execute the programs as well as program specific costs such as operating costs for a new bus arrival realtime system, service agreement for parking meters and operating costs for a parking management system

FY 2019 and Beyond Long Bridge Aquatics and Fitness Center – The Long Bridge Aquatics and Fitness Center will be constructed using the existing balances for the project.

It is anticipated that starting in FY2020, a net tax support in the range of $1.3 million to $1.7 million will be needed to operate the facility and the outdoor spaces. The lower end of the range is in the out years due to a projected stabilization of the program in year FY 2024.

Lubber Run Community Center and Fire Station #8 – The renovation and/or repurposing of these two large facilities will impact the operating budgets through changes in programming, staffing, utilities, maintenance repair, and other costs. Estimates of operating impacts are preliminary prior to facility planning and design, and staff will continue to refine them as the projects proceed through master planning and design.

Other Parks Projects – Operating costs for new parks and synthetic turf fields coming online in FY20 or beyond are estimated to add between $40,000 and approximately $400,000 annually depending on the size of the park and the features it contains.

Ballston Multimodal Improvements – This project will see improvements along the Ballston Metrorail station area to modify bus bays, bus shelters, pedestrian amenities, bicycle parking, street and sidewalk improvements as well as installation of real time information displays. The construction is projected to be completed during Winter 2017 and result in operating costs such as electricity, routine shelter maintenance and repair, information system data and software updates, landscape upkeep and stormwater infrastructure maintenance.
